File integrity

File integrity monitors your installation against unauthorized or incomplete file modifications:

  • Signed baseline: Maintains an HMAC-SHA256 checksum baseline of all RelyAI plugin files.
  • Change detection: Identifies unexpected modifications, incomplete uploads, or file corruption.
  • Advisory visibility: View current status under RelyAI → Settings → Integrity & Updates.

The integrity status on the Integrity & Updates tabRelyAI → Settings → Integrity & Updates

What the statuses mean

StatusWhat it's telling you
Everything in syncFiles match the signed baseline — nothing to do
All files verifiedHMAC signatures are valid
Sync requiredSomething differs from the baseline; the list shows what changed
n files trackedHow many files are covered, plus when the last snapshot was taken
No baseline yetNo checksum baseline has been recorded so far

Auto-Sync on Admin Page Load

Enable Auto-Sync on Admin Page Load to automatically refresh the baseline upon admin access:

  • Self-healing baseline: Establishes a fresh checksum baseline immediately following legitimate upgrades.
  • Eliminates false alerts: Clears pending "Sync required" flags after planned file changes.

Operational characteristics

  • Admin-only visibility: Integrity metrics and controls appear exclusively in the administrator interface.
  • Non-blocking operation: Mismatches generate advisory warnings without locking features or stopping execution.
  • Advisory signal: Acts as an operational indicator rather than an immutable cryptographic lock.
