How Halting Problems turns supply-chain reporting into defender-ready intelligence

Halting Problems keeps each incident in one main post and connects source-backed analysis with machine-readable observables, affected software, and tested hunting scripts.

Source-first analysis

Posts prioritize direct researcher writeups, registry metadata, advisories, repository evidence, and reproducible artifact observations. Claims are preserved with source context so defenders can distinguish confirmed behavior from inferred risk.

Operational structure

Summary: what happened and why it matters.
Affected software: package, ecosystem, version, and confidence metadata.
IOC clipboard: copyable observables for SIEM/SOAR enrichment.
Tested hunting scripts: scripts imported from the research repository.
Provenance: sources and claim-support excerpts.

Main-post rule

Follow-up developments update the original incident where practical rather than creating duplicate follow-up posts. This keeps search, feeds, and external links pointed at one source of truth.
