Tom Boucher	bf2332e67c	fix(#3582): route every hook's compiled-module require through the self-heal build seam (#3629) ... * test(3582): failing-first cold-tree coverage and the seam drift lint On a plugin-channel install the compiled gsd-core/bin/lib/*.cjs are legitimately absent (ADR-457 build-at-publish; the npm package builds before publishing, a raw tree materialization never does). gsd-tools.cjs calls ensureRuntimeBuild() before requiring ./lib; no hook does, so the isolation guard's Cannot-find-module lands in its fail-closed catch and is misreported as an unreadable dispatch-isolation configuration, blocking every executor dispatch. These tests fail on that: cold-tree runs of the isolation guard, statusline, cursor guard and update worker, plus the seam's actionable build error surfacing instead of the generic misreport. Also adds the drift lint the acceptance criteria require, with a fixture proving it CAN fail — a guard never shown to fail is worthless. It is red here by design: it flags today's unfixed hooks, which is exactly the defect. * fix(3582): route every hook's compiled-module require through the self-heal seam RED proven at 5b174b0d: 11 failures — the cold-tree runs for the isolation guard, cursor guard and update worker, the fail-closed-with-actionable-message assertion, and the lint's own real-tree check. The compiled runtime library is produced by build:lib and gitignored (ADR-457, build-at-publish). The npm package builds before publishing; a plugin-marketplace or git-clone install materializes the raw tree and never does, so on that channel those modules are legitimately absent. The self-heal seam added by #2002 exists to heal exactly this, and the CLI entrypoint already calls it — no hook did. The isolation guard's Cannot-find-module therefore landed in its fail-closed catch and was reported as 'could not read or resolve dispatch-isolation configuration', so an ARTIFACT ABSENCE was misdiagnosed as an unreadable project config and every executor dispatch was blocked. All SEVEN affected files now call the seam before their first compiled require. The issue named four; a scan found six; implementing it surfaced a seventh — the shared isolation sentinel helper, used by BOTH guards, which requires two compiled modules itself and would have defeated the guards' own fix on a genuinely cold tree. Same defect class, so fixed here rather than left as a known-broken remainder. Failure posture is deliberately split by hook kind: - Gates (agent isolation guard, cursor subagent start) surface the seam's actionable build error distinctly instead of swallowing it into the generic text, and stay fail-closed — a genuinely unreadable project config still DENIES exactly as before. - Cosmetic and detached hooks (statusline, update worker, update check, update banner) DEGRADE rather than crash: the statusline draws on every render and the worker is a detached process, so a build failure there must not take down the prompt. The npm path is untouched: the seam's already-built fast path returns immediately, so prebuilt installs pay nothing and behave bit-for-bit as before. Adds a drift lint, wired into the CI lint chain, so the invariant is enforced rather than remembered — without it the next hook to add a compiled require reintroduces the class silently. It is proven able to fail: a fixture hook requiring a compiled module without the seam is flagged, and one that uses the seam is not. Verified directly — on the unfixed tree it named all seven offenders; with the fix it passes. While writing the lint's comment stripper, a naive whole-text block-comment regex ate its own fixture, because this repo's comments legitimately spell the compiled-lib glob whose star-slash reads as a comment opener. Rewritten as a line-based scanner with a regression test pinning that case. * fix(3582): test the three untested seam call sites and assert typed reason codes Two independent reviews converged on the same major gap: the fix wired the seam into seven files but only four had cold-tree tests. The adversarial pass put it plainly — deleting the shared isolation-sentinel helper's seam call would not have failed any test in the diff. That file was my own addition beyond the issue's four, so it shipped untested; that is now closed. - Shared isolation-sentinel helper: its seam call is only reached when .planning is NOT directly under cwd, and every existing cold-tree fixture puts it there, so the early return always fired first. Now covered, and proven load-bearing by mutation: with the call removed the spy records zero seam invocations and the test fails. - update-check hook and update-banner hook: cold-tree tests added asserting the DEGRADED VERDICT — the fallback cache filename, and silent suppression when the package name degrades to null — rather than merely 'did not throw'. The banner hook previously had no test file at all. Standards violation fixed: two tests asserted on free-form prose via assert.match against a JSON reason string, which CONTRIBUTING bans by name — its own BAD example is exactly that. The ESLint rule only covers readFileSync/spawnSync text, so tooling did not catch it. Both isolation guards now emit a machine-readable reason_code from a frozen enum, following the repo's existing REASON convention, and the tests assert that instead. The human-readable message is unchanged for operators; only the assertion target moved. The duplicated degrade boilerplate across the three cosmetic hooks was deliberately NOT extracted, and the reason is recorded at each site: both viable shapes — a path-parameterized helper, or a ceremony-only wrapper — defeat the drift lint's per-file literal co-occurrence check, so extracting would require the lint to special-case its own helper. Triplication is the lesser evil while the lint stays a co-occurrence scan. The lint's header now states what it does and does not catch (literal quoted requires only; hooks/ scan root), so a future reader does not over-trust a guard that a concatenated path or a require inside a non-hooks helper would evade. * chore(3582): regenerate the committed install-tree fixtures Adding a new shipped hook helper changed the install tree, and those fixtures are committed-and-derived (regen:derived / gen:install-tree), so 12 'install tree — <runtime>' tests failed on 541a1913. Regenerated rather than hand-edited. The delta across all 15 runtime fixtures is exactly two lines — the new helper under both its hooks/ and gsd-hooks/ install paths — and nothing else, so the regeneration pulled in no unrelated drift. This is the bookkeeping ripple a new file under hooks/ carries; it was not visible from lint:ci, which passed both before and after. * chore(3582): backfill changeset PR number (#3629) --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-18 14:11:23 -04:00
Tom Boucher	8f75e27554	fix(#3045): fail closed when an executor dispatch drops its resolved isolation (#3069) ... * feat(#3045): deny an executor dispatch that drops its isolation flag Every isolation gate already resolved correctly. The resolved value then reached the executor through a prose instruction telling the model to substitute it into a call the model composes itself, and nothing verified the substitution. When it was dropped, the executor edited and committed in the user's primary checkout with no consent and no warning. A prose backstop would be the same class of artifact as the defect, so this is a shipped PreToolUse hook on the Agent tool. It fires at the instant of the call rather than being read once at the top of a workflow, which is the only placement the model cannot skip. The guard is inert unless it can positively establish that this is a GSD project, that the project resolves to harness isolation, and that the dispatch targets an executor. A non-GSD repo has no invariant to enforce. Where it cannot read the configuration at all, it denies rather than assuming, with its own reason -- a guard that cannot verify must not answer safe. A malformed payload allows rather than throwing. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(#3045): extend the isolation guard to Cursor Cursor is the second of only two runtimes that resolve harness isolation, so shipping the guard for Claude alone left half the exposed surface unguarded while the changeset implied it was covered. The two runtimes fail differently. On Claude the harness flag is a per-dispatch kwarg the model must copy into a call it composes, and the defect is that it can be dropped. On Cursor the flag is --worktree, which applies to the whole session, and the subagent-start payload carries no isolation field at all. There is no flag to check, so the guard verifies the effective state instead: whether the workspace is genuinely running outside the user's primary checkout. That is a stronger check than the Claude one because it tests reality rather than intent, and it is commented so nobody later rewrites it into a flag check. Isolation is established two ways, either sufficient: the workspace resolves to a linked git worktree, or it sits under the worktree root Cursor manages. The second matters because a directory Cursor placed there is a legitimate isolated session even before it becomes a distinct git worktree, where linkage alone would report no repository. Detecting linkage required a new primitive rather than the existing context resolver. That resolver short-circuits on finding a local .planning directory before it ever compares the git directory to the common one -- and an isolation worktree normally has its own checked-out .planning. Reusing it would have read a correctly isolated session as unisolated and denied it, which is the failure direction that gets a guard switched off. The comparison is now its own shortcut-free function that the resolver delegates to after its own shortcut, so existing behavior is unchanged, and the case that would have broken is pinned. The subagent type is checked before any configuration is read, so an unreadable config cannot deny a dispatch this guard would never have enforced against. The input-schema comment on the Cursor hook documented only the fields common to every event and omitted the ones specific to this one. That omission cost a halt during this work; it now documents both. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3045): enforce the resolved dispatch decision, not the host capability The guard keyed on the registry's dispatch.isolation, which says only that a runtime is CAPABLE of harness worktrees. The decision that actually governs a dispatch is the one the workflow resolves after gating, and that legitimately comes out as sequential in three documented cases: a project setting use_worktrees false, a per-plan submodule intersection, and the base-check auto-degrade. The workflow tells the model to omit the flag in exactly those cases, and the guard was denying every one of them. The third case matters most. The preceding fix made the base-check degrade on git timeouts and a missing git binary, where it had previously answered "safe". That correction is right, and it means a transient hang now degrades to sequential far more often than before -- so the two changes composed into a trap where the workflow behaved exactly as designed and the guard blocked it. The workflow already resolves isolation in shell, deterministically, which is what makes it a trustworthy source in a way the model-authored call is not. It now records that resolved value through a dedicated verb, and both guards read it first. A fresh record is authoritative, so sequential dispatches pass untouched. Absent or stale, the guards fall back to the capability check combined with the project's use_worktrees setting, which still covers the case that never reaches the workflow. Also widened the matcher to accept Task alongside Agent, since a host that names the tool Task would otherwise leave the guard silently inert while implying coverage; stopped assuming Claude when no runtime is declared, which is the shipped default and would have demanded a Claude-only argument elsewhere; and made a non-git project inert rather than denied, since advising a worktree session is not actionable without a repository. The original diagnosis never modeled sequential mode as legitimate. That omission is what let this through, and it is now recorded there. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3045): record at resolution and bind the record to its dispatch Two independent reviews converged on the same failure: the guard was fail-open in a default install, so it did not catch the defect it exists to catch. A shipped project carries no runtime key, which made "runtime not confidently known" the common case rather than a corner one. A record asserting that isolation was required but carrying no flag then fell through to a capability lookup that answered "none", and the dispatch was allowed. The flag itself only arrived from a second shell block -- the same block a model dropping the argument would also skip. A test had pinned that behavior as intended. The record is now written by the resolver, as an unavoidable consequence of asking for the value, rather than by a step the model is told in prose to go and run. A guard against a prose-carried value cannot itself depend on prose. Mode, flag and identifiers are written together and atomically, so the flagless window is gone, and a record asserting isolation with no resolvable flag now denies instead of degrading. Runtime is also resolved from the installer's own recorded default, which makes confident resolution the normal case. The per-plan submodule gate degrades after the phase-level decision and never re-recorded, so a plan that legitimately ran sequentially was denied against a still-fresh phase record. It now records its own, scoped to the plan. A record also authorized any dispatch for four hours. One phase degrading to sequential could silently license an unisolated dispatch in the next. Records now carry phase and plan, the guards require them to match, and the window is minutes rather than hours -- the resolver rewrites it before every dispatch, so a long window bought nothing and only widened the hole. The flag validator rejected any value beginning with two dashes, which is exactly the form Cursor and Windsurf declare, so their real value could never have been stored. Writer and reader also derived the record path differently and diverged inside a linked worktree without local planning state. The predictable path remains a way to silence the control without leaving a trace in the diff. It grants no access an agent with shell does not already have, so it is documented as accepted rather than redesigned around. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3045): correct the staleness boundary and unmask a vacuous parity test The remote runner returned twenty failures. One was a real production defect the boundary case existed to catch: a record whose age exactly equalled the staleness window was treated as fresh, so it stayed authoritative for one tick past its own expiry. Freshness is now strictly inside the window. The parity test meant to stop the two guards' executor lists from drifting could never have failed. Its project fixture was a bare directory rather than a repository, so the non-git inert branch answered before the executor list was ever consulted. It asserted agreement it never actually measured. The fixture is now a real repository, like every sibling in the file. A test also asserted that Windsurf declares the worktree flag. It does not -- Windsurf resolves to no isolation by design, having no named concurrent dispatch to isolate. The test claimed a registry fact that was never true, and a comment in the resolver repeated it. Both corrected, and the test now proves what it should have all along: that the parser accepts any bare flag value, rather than one runtime's supposed value. The new guard was missing from the bundled-hook whitelist, which is the surface that decides what actually ships, and the per-plan gate had gained calls to the launcher without the preamble those calls require. The changeset carried parenthetical product descriptions the purity rule forbids.

Node resolves the home directory from USERPROFILE on Windows and never consults HOME, so both silently read the real runner profile, found no recorded runtime, and asserted against a project the hook had not recognised. The production code was already correct in asking the platform rather than the variable; only the tests were wrong to assume one variable answers everywhere. The helpers now mirror the override onto both. The symlink spoofing test also created a directory symlink unconditionally, which needs elevated privileges on Windows. It survived on this runner, but it would fail on any host without them, so the creation is now attempted and the test skips explicitly when it cannot be done -- a bare return would have counted as a pass and hidden the gap. Skipping alone would have left the platform uncovered, so the behaviour it proves is now also driven in-process through an injected realpath, following the seam already used for the clock. That case no longer depends on privileges at all, and the end-to-end test keeps its original assertions wherever symlinks work.
