Five list columns (greynoise_tags, abuseipdb_categories, threatfox_threat_types,
threatfox_ioc_types, threatfox_malware_families) and four dict columns
(*_raw) are now Column(JSON) with list/dict type annotations and
default_factory=list/dict. Providers return native Python objects; the
application-layer json.dumps/json.loads round-trip and _decode_json_list
helpers are gone. to_intel_event_payload() reads columns directly.
Also caps pytest xdist at -n 4 and excludes tests/api from norecursedirs
to prevent schemathesis workers from OOM-killing the dev loop.
The TTP worker forwards the bus payload verbatim to the IntelLifter as
TaggerEvent.payload. The pre-audit publish payload only carried
{attacker_uuid, attacker_ip, aggregate_verdict, providers}, so even with
the new AttackerIntel taxonomy columns populated the lifter still saw
nothing. Lift the relevant fields (categories / tags / threat_types /
malware family / score / classification) into the bus event and decode
JSON-string list columns back to native lists at the boundary.
Three producer-side regression guards. Each drives the worker's run
loop with a fake bus + stubbed repo and asserts the documented topic
fires when the producer has data:
- reuse correlator → credential.reuse.detected (one finding row)
- clusterer → identity.formed + identity.merged (one ClusterResult)
- intel worker → attacker.intel.enriched (one unenriched attacker
+ a fake provider returning a "malicious" verdict)
These complement commit 1's attacker.session.ended producer test —
together the four cover every TTP-relevant publisher in the tree
(modulo email.received, which has no producer yet; tracked in
DEBT.md).
