test:web ran build:web alone, which does not rebuild UI plugin client
bundles. Plugin CSS reaches the browser through packages/client/*/lib/
client.js, not apps/web/dist, so a changed *.module.css served its
previous bundle: the run exercised stale CSS and a removed declaration
still passed. That is how I first mistook a valid gutter test for a
vacuous one.
Root build already covers packages/*/*, so running it first is enough;
check-all already ordered build before build:web, so CI was never
exposed. Only the local script was, which is where a stale-bundle pass is
most likely to be believed.
Verified against the situation it fixes: mutate the source, rebuild the
bundle, restore the source, and the artifact is left without the
declaration while the source has it. Under the old script the run tested
that artifact; under the new one the artifact is rebuilt first (grep goes
0 to 1) and the scrollbar spec passes. The nine failing web files are the
pre-existing aria-golden set from f2c004524, unchanged by this.
ds-review-bot round 4. On Windows, isAbsolute admits rooted drive-less
forms (\foo, /foo) that resolve() then rebases onto the process's current
drive; both browse primitives now gate on a fullyQualified check (drive
letter or UNC on win32, POSIX-absolute elsewhere) with a platform test
seam, per-platform unit cases, and the contract wording updated on the
seam, the backend README pair, and the error messages.
The picker-kind effect also kept a resolved 'dialog' across close, so a
backend swapped while the menu was closed could paint the stale entry for
one frame on reopen; the close arm now clears the state, pinned by a
reopen-under-pending-read race test.
ds-review-bot round 3. The seam package broke the service-package export
contract (named export only), so the config catalog filed it under Other
libraries and default imports failed; it now default-exports DirectoryPicker
like every abstract seam, and the regenerated catalog lists it as one.
The picker-kind effect also let a settlement from a superseded flow open
leak into the current one (close/reopen mid-describe, or a reconnect that
swaps the backend): the read now resets the affordance on every open and a
cleanup-toggled flag discards obsolete settlements, both directions pinned
by jsdom races.
ds-review-bot round 1: the seam documented a merge-extensible union but
shipped a closed alias, and the gateway schema rejected any kind beyond
dialog/browse — a third backend could neither implement the seam nor be
advertised. The union now derives from an augmentable DirectoryPickerCapabilities
map, host.describe.directoryPicker preserves unknown wire kinds, and the
browse fixture applies listDirectory's root special case so creating under
'/' no longer mints a '//name' identity.
Fetch-Metadata and Origin are only attached to trustworthy destinations, so
over plain HTTP a rebound page's same-origin GET (EventSource, images,
navigations) arrives with no browser markers and a readable response. Remove
the marker shortcut; non-browser clients pass the same fence via loopback,
the CLI-derived LAN IP literals, or a declared authority.
A dangling colon (harness.internal:) or zero-padded port parses cleanly while
WHATWG silently rewrites it, turning an intended exact-port grant into an
any-port grant. Replace the character blacklist with a round-trip check: an
entry must read back from parsing exactly as written (case aside), refusing
the whole rewrite class at load.
WHATWG parsing would quietly read a hostname out of harness.internal/path or
user@harness.internal, authorizing the typo's hostname; other typos would sit
silently ignored until requests 403. Refuse every URL part beyond host[:port]
at plugin load.
The web GUI's folder picking was hardwired to one interaction: a native
OS chooser compiled into the gateway, unusable for remote deployments
and swappable only by editing apiproxy source.
Directory picking becomes a three-package capability seam in
packages/host: ctx.directoryPicker returns a discriminated capability —
dialog (the extracted native chooser; host-display only) or browse
(new: one-level listing + child creation over Node stdlib, hidden flags
host-stamped, symlinks followed, ancestry crumbs; remote-capable). The
gateway injects the seam, advertises the kind via
host.describe.directoryPicker, serves host.listDirectory /
host.createDirectory under browse, and answers
directory-picker-unavailable across kinds. cordis.yml is the swap
point; apps/cli keeps dialog mounted, so behavior is unchanged until
the in-app browser PR flips the default. The connection fixture serves
a deterministic browse tree; WorkspacesService gains the browse calls
the browser UI will drive. Decision record:
.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-28-directory-picker-capability-seam.md
Markerless requests pass on any Host (a non-browser sender is the principal
and forges headers anyway); browser Host matching gains port-less entries and
WHATWG normalization; dsh derives LAN IP-literal authorities for an
all-interfaces bind and web grows --trusted-host for named ones.
The only browser-trust guard covered host.pickDirectory, while the
consequential methods (session.prompt drives bash) accepted any Host —
open to DNS rebinding, where a rebound page reads and writes the API as
if same-origin and only the Host header betrays the attacker's domain.
The pickDirectory-specific loopback guard becomes a prefix-wide fence:
Host must be loopback or an exact host[:port] from the new trustedHosts
config, an attached Origin must equal that authority, and explicit
cross-site markers are refused; requests without browser markers (curl,
tests, native clients) pass, because without a browser there is no
confused deputy. The loopback-socket check is dropped — binding policy
expresses reachability, and the fence is not an auth layer. The Agent
Note records the full threat model and the alternatives.
Remove the duplicate model-facing list tool from this branch; directory orientation remains available through bash ls. Keep the glob sampling fix, add a real ACP composition snapshot, and narrow the decision record to the shipped bug fix.
Master had advanced 392 commits. Every conflict was a derived artifact both
sides had regenerated — `docs/tool-catalog.md`, four recorded headless
session logs, and one TUI terminal expectation — so each was resolved by
taking master's version and re-running the generator and the keyless
snapshot refresh on the merged tree. No source file conflicted.
The new `examples/jsonrpc-agent` fixtures keep master's scrubbed
`{{system}}` / `{{tools}}` headers: that suite scrubs request headers, so a
new tool changes nothing there and the refresh output was discarded.
