Tom Boucher c7c2fe3c2b fix(#2587): resolve cursor hook workspace from workspace_roots, not cwd (#2680)
* fix(#2587): resolve cursor hook workspace from workspace_roots, not cwd

gsd-cursor-session-start.js and gsd-cursor-stop.js both resolved the project as
path.join(process.cwd(), '.planning', 'STATE.md'). Under the cursor-agent CLI,
hooks are invoked with cwd set to the Cursor config dir (~/.cursor), not the
workspace — so the lookup always missed. sessionStart could only ever emit the
"no .planning/ workflow found" nudge and stop's verify-work reminder could never
fire, even with .planning/STATE.md sitting in the workspace. Slash commands were
unaffected, which is why only the hook layer looked blind.

Both hooks already buffered stdin into `raw` and never parsed it; the payload's
workspace_roots carries the real path.

Multi-root was left open in the report ("first root vs any root"). Resolved
forward: prefer the first root that actually carries .planning/STATE.md, so a
workspace whose GSD project is not the first root still resolves — strictly
better than first-root-only and identical to it in the single-root CLI case.
Falls back to roots[0], then to cwd, keeping IDE behavior unchanged if the IDE
ever invokes hooks from the workspace.

The resolver is duplicated verbatim across the two scripts rather than shared via
hooks/lib/: these hooks ship standalone, and a new hooks/lib/ file must be
registered in the GENERATED installer's GSD_HOOK_LIB_FILES allowlist — the
installer-omits-shipped-file class that yields MODULE_NOT_FOUND at runtime. Per
CLAUDE.md "Generative Fix Divergence", the duplication carries a parity assertion
so the copies cannot drift.

Failing-first, demonstrated by direct invocation with cwd != workspace:
  pre-fix  sessionStart -> "no .planning/ workflow found"   stop -> {}
  post-fix sessionStart -> ".planning/STATE.md is present"  stop -> reminder

tests/fix-2587-cursor-hook-workspace-roots.test.cjs spawns the real scripts as
child processes with a cwd lacking .planning/ and workspace_roots pointing at it.
Boundary coverage on the roots array (0 / 1 / 2 entries), plus malformed-JSON
fail-open, junk-entry filtering, the parity assertion, and a guard that neither
script resolves .planning from cwd again.

* fix(#2587): extend workspace_roots fix to subagentStart; keep cwd a candidate

Three findings from the isolated review, all fixed.

1. MISSED SITE (high). gsd-cursor-subagent-start.js carried the identical
   defect at line 43 — its own header documents workspace_roots in the input
   schema, but it resolved .planning/ from process.cwd() anyway. Under the
   cursor-agent CLI that meant every Cursor subagent (planner, executor,
   verifier) started with "no .planning/ workflow found" and no phase context.
   The report named only sessionStart and stop; the defect class was wider.
   Verified pre-fix vs post-fix by direct invocation with cwd != workspace.

2. SEMANTIC NARROWING (medium). The first cut searched only workspace_roots and
   fell back to cwd solely when the array was EMPTY. So when roots were supplied
   but none carried .planning/ while cwd did, the hook reported absent — where
   the pre-fix code, which always used cwd, reported present. That contradicted
   the fallback's own stated intent of preserving IDE behavior. cwd is now a
   CANDIDATE in the search (`[...roots, process.cwd()]`), so the fix is a strict
   superset of both the old behavior and the CLI fix, never a narrowing.

3. STALE GOLDEN FIXTURES (high, would have failed CI). The golden-install-parity
   fixtures store a content hash per installed file; these three hooks appear in
   13 of the 19 runtime fixtures. Regenerated via `npm run gen:golden` — the
   diff is exactly the three hook hashes in exactly those 13 runtimes.

Tests extended: subagentStart resolution via workspace_roots; the stop hook's
absent branch (previously only session-start's was covered); an explicit
regression guard that a project at cwd is still found when roots miss; parity now
asserts all THREE copies byte-identical; and the cwd guard sweeps the whole
RESOLVING_HOOKS list so a future hook in this family cannot be left on cwd.

* refactor(#2587): extract cursor workspace resolution to a shared hooks/lib module

The duplicate-plus-parity-test approach was the wrong call. The reported issue
named two hooks; a third (subagentStart) had the identical defect. That is the
signature of a systemic problem, and three copies of a resolver guarded by a
parity assertion is a divergence risk maintained by hand rather than a fix.

hooks/lib/cursor-workspace.js is now the single implementation. All three Cursor
hooks require it; none defines a local copy. Divergence is prevented
structurally instead of by asserting three copies stay byte-identical.

The reason duplication looked necessary was real, and is fixed properly here
rather than worked around: Cursor sets hostBehaviors.skipSharedHooksInstall
(#2089), so it never reaches the installer's bulk hooks/lib copy — it was the
ONE runtime shipping these hooks WITHOUT hooks/lib (verified against all 19
golden fixtures: cursor had the hook scripts, no lib). A naive require would
have thrown MODULE_NOT_FOUND at load, BEFORE each hook's own try/catch, wedging
every session on precisely the runtime this bug is about.

writeCursorHooksJson (src/runtime-hooks-surface.cts) now stages the hooks/lib
helpers the staged scripts actually require, discovered by scanning their
require('./lib/…') calls rather than a hardcoded name — so a future helper
cannot be silently omitted. This is narrower than flipping
skipSharedHooksInstall, which would wrongly pull in every shared hook.
cursor-workspace.js is also added to GSD_HOOK_LIB_FILES so uninstall and the
manifest manage it for the runtimes that do receive hooks/lib.

Verified against a REAL install (runMinimalInstall, cursor/global): the helper
is staged, and all three INSTALLED hooks resolve the workspace end-to-end from a
cwd that is not the project.

Also closes the review gap that the stop hook was excluded from the
cwd-candidate regression loop — it now sweeps RESOLVING_HOOKS. The byte-parity
test is replaced by a structural guard (every hook requires the shared module,
none redefines it) plus a new install test asserting the helper is staged and
the installed hook actually loads against it.

* fix(#2587): fail loud on a missing hook lib source; drop unsubstituted version marker

Two findings from the installer-focused review.

H1 — the staging step's `if (!fs.existsSync(libSrc)) continue;` silently defeated
the very guarantee it was added for. Reproduced: delete hooks/lib/cursor-workspace.js
from source, run the cursor install — it exits 0, prints "Done!", and ships the
three hook scripts with an EMPTY hooks/lib/. The installed hook then throws
`Cannot find module './lib/cursor-workspace.js'` at load, before its own
try/catch, wedging every session — and nothing surfaces until a user hits it.
The scan protected against a required-but-UNLISTED helper while leaving
required-but-MISSING wide open (typo, bad rebase, an accidental delete).
It now throws: a missing helper source is a packaging bug and aborts the install.

M1 — hooks/lib/cursor-workspace.js carried a `gsd-hook-version: <placeholder>`
marker that NOTHING substitutes: copyLibDir stamps .sh files only, and
writeCursorHooksJson's staging applies just the colon-to-dash rewrite. Verified
the literal was reaching disk on both the bulk (--claude) and Cursor
(--cursor) paths. hooks/lib/git-cmd.js — the only pre-existing hooks/lib/*.js —
carries no such marker, so this was newly introduced, not inherited. Marker
removed, matching that precedent, with a note on why. (The explanatory comment
deliberately does not spell the token out, or it would reintroduce the literal.)

M2 — the require-scan regex demanded the exact compact form, so
`require( "./lib/x.js" )` would silently fail to stage its helper and compound
H1. Now tolerant of interior whitespace and either quote style.

Regression test added for H1 — the reviewer confirmed the invariant had zero
coverage repo-wide: a source tree carrying the hooks but no hooks/lib/ must make
writeCursorHooksJson throw rather than produce a broken install.

Re-verified end to end: the missing-source case throws, no unsubstituted literal
ships, and the installed hook still resolves the workspace from a foreign cwd.

/**
* #2587 — Cursor sessionStart/stop hooks resolved .planning/ from process.cwd().
*
* Under the cursor-agent CLI, hooks are invoked with cwd set to the Cursor
* config dir (~/.cursor), NOT the workspace. Both hooks did:
*
* path.join(process.cwd(), '.planning', 'STATE.md')
*
* so the lookup always missed: gsd-cursor-session-start.js could only ever emit
* the "no .planning/ workflow found" nudge, and gsd-cursor-stop.js's verify-work
* reminder could never fire — even with .planning/STATE.md right there in the
* workspace. Both hooks already buffered stdin into `raw` but never parsed it;
* the payload's `workspace_roots` carries the real path.
*
* These are BEHAVIORAL tests: each spawns the real hook script as a child
* process with a cwd that does NOT contain .planning/ and a stdin payload whose
* workspace_roots does — exactly the CLI invocation shape from the report — and
* asserts on the emitted JSON contract. They fail against the pre-fix scripts.
