Architecture that facilitates management of a build process according to a level of trust of a build entity. The build process processes one or more build entities, each of which is associated with a level of trust. These associations are stored in a policy file that is run against the one or more entities at the start of the build process. The build process runs at a permission level that is representative of the lowest level of trust of the build entities. The levels of trust include at least trusted, semi-trusted, and untrusted levels. If the lowest level is untrusted, the build process fails, and the user is notified.

Architecture that restricts permissions granted to a build process

Re-useable build tasks are analyzed and tasks with identical attribute values are grouped together into batches, and the task is executed once for each batch, eliminating the need for consideration of looping constructs in the build process.
