A noisy IDS gets ignored. Adds explicit FP-handling built on provenance — a binary owned by the package manager is almost certainly legitimate (the OSSEC rootcheck / AIDE principle). - provenance.py: package_owner()/is_package_owned() via pacman/dpkg/rpm, cached; framed as confidence-raising, never proof-of-safety - triage.py: triage_alert() labels each detection likely-FP vs review with a reason (package-owned binary, loopback-only listener, allowlisted comm, …); reverse_shell/egress/exec rules are ALWAYS review (provenance can't clear a network shell); unattributable listeners are reviewed, not cleared - cli: `enodia-sentinel triage` summarizes captured alerts and suggests allowlist entries - new_listener: listener_allow_comms + optional suppress_package_owned_listeners gate (the best single knob for a desktop/seedbox running P2P apps) - tests: +10 (provenance injected); README + config documented. 65/65 pass Verified on a live seedbox: 12 detections, 11 auto-cleared as FP (qbittorrent / nicotine / kdeconnectd / the dashboard itself), 1 correctly held for review.

"""Alert triage — label a detection likely-false-positive vs needs-review.

Applies cheap, explainable heuristics (provenance, loopback binds, allowlists,

drill artifacts) so a human isn't drowned in benign noise. Verdicts are advice,

never auto-deletion. ``is_owned`` is injectable for testing.
