Server half of "pin altimate-code serve to the datamate selected in the IDE". The extension half is AltimateAI/vscode-altimate-mcp-server#471 — this one lands first.

Why

serve is launched by the VS Code / Cursor extension, which already knows which datamate the user picked in its panel. Nothing carried that across, so skills and memory followed whatever binding the project had on the backend rather than the selection on screen.

The change is one hook

skill-sync.ts:663 and memory-sync.ts:143 both funnel through resolveBindingOutcome. Honouring the pin there is all that is needed — neither module changes.

  • pin.ts (new) — parses ALTIMATE_PINNED_WORKSPACE_{ID,NAME,ROOT} into a tagged absent | invalid | valid. A present-but-broken pin is invalid and fails closed, because falling through to normal resolution can legitimately return a different workspace, and silently working against a workspace the user did not pick is the one outcome this must never produce.
  • state.ts — the pin outranks the cached binding and server auto-adoption; is validated against listDatamates() (memoized on REVALIDATE_MS, since this runs per turn and per memory write); is scoped to the launch root; and is never persisted. pinned is stripped from anything read off disk so a hand-edited cache cannot impersonate extension authorization.

Why a separate env namespace

ALTIMATE_RESOLVED_WORKSPACE_* looks like the obvious home, but launch-resolve.ts:69 sets only ..._ID for the TUI's --workspace flag. Sharing the namespace would make every such TUI session look like a half-populated pin and the fail-closed rule would break --workspace outright. readPin also returns absent unless ALTIMATE_CODE_SERVE is set, so the two mechanisms can never both be live.

Offline

Splits on whether this process ever validated the pin: never-validated is unknown (nothing was established, and the env name is a presentation fallback, never an authorization one); previously-validated keeps serving within the TTL — which is what this module already does for a cached binding rather than "tear a working setup down over a network blip". Verified non-membership always fails closed.

Verification

23 new tests (575 workspace tests total, 0 failures) covering the parser, precedence, fail-closed paths, root scoping, the offline split and memoization.

End-to-end against a real serve with the extension branch, OPENCODE_PRINT_LOGS=1:

workspace gate enabled=true serve=1 pinId=237
syncSkills entered canon=/home/coder/project enabled=true
resolved the workspace pinned by the IDE extension datamateId=237 datamateName=activity_test
workspace has no custom skills; removed the local snapshot

datamateName came back from the server, not the env, so the listDatamates() validation path is exercised.

Then, with a custom skill added to that workspace and memory enabled on it:

workspace skills synced datamateId=237 skills=1
  • Skills — the workspace's skill landed at .altimate-code/skill/_workspace/<id>/SKILL.md with a manifest pinned to datamateId: 237, and its contents matched the skill added in the workspace UI.
  • Memory — the agent's altimate_memory_write produced a local block, and it appears in that workspace's "What's been remembered" list in the product UI.

Both are the pinned datamate's, not the project's backend binding — which is the whole point of the change.

Debugging note: Log.create().info() is gated on printEnabled(), which defaults to OFF. Without OPENCODE_PRINT_LOGS=1 this subsystem is completely silent and looks dead. That cost me a long detour; worth knowing before debugging it.

Not in this PR

  • memory-sync has no adopted checks at all, so ongoing mirroring already fires for server-adopted bindings despite the contract documented at state.ts:349. Pre-existing, not introduced here, and fixing it changes behaviour for current users — deserves its own PR and release note.
  • No backfill trigger for a pin. backfillOnBind's only caller is recordApprovedBinding (the explicit-link path), and the pin is deliberately not persisted, so pre-existing local memory is not pushed. New saves mirror normally through mirrorBlock.
  • No purge-before-fetch in skill-sync when the pin changes to a different workspace.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request adds IDE workspace pin support. It validates pins against account-visible workspaces, preserves canonical paths across asynchronous checks, caches validation results, and removes pin variables from nested bash processes.

Changes

Workspace pin resolution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Pin parsing and canonical root validation
packages/opencode/src/altimate/workspace/pin.ts, packages/opencode/test/altimate/workspace/pin.test.ts
resolveWithinRoot returns the canonical contained path or null. Pin parsing and containment tests cover invalid values, symlinks, missing descendants, path escapes, and prefix siblings.
Credential-bound workspace verification
packages/opencode/src/altimate/workspace/api-client.ts, packages/opencode/src/altimate/workspace/state.ts
listDatamates can use a captured credential. Pin resolution validates account visibility and reuses the canonical path for project identification.
Validation caching and failure handling
packages/opencode/src/altimate/workspace/state.ts, packages/opencode/test/altimate/workspace/state-pin.test.ts
Successful validation is cached for five minutes. Transient API failures can use cached results for up to 30 minutes. Concurrent requests share one probe, credential changes remain scoped to the cache key, and invalid or expired validations return unknown.
Nested process pin isolation
packages/opencode/src/tool/bash.ts
The bash tool removes pinned workspace variables before spawning child processes.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 6d3a8

This change adds substantial new workspace-pin validation and mostly closes prior credential-rotation and containment races, but two issues should be resolved before merging: a security-relevant edge case where a not-yet-created pinned directory can still be redirected via a symlink race to leak project memory across workspace boundaries, and a test suite that mutates shared API stubs without per-test isolation, risking flaky or incorrect results in parallel CI runs.

CRITICAL: The lexical fallback permits a symlink escape for a non-existent descendant

If the full request directory does not exist, realpathSync fails and this returns the lexical path without resolving its nearest existing ancestor. For example, with <root>/link -> /outside, <root>/link/new is accepted by withinRoot even though creating/using it resolves outside the pinned tree. This check gates an unsecured, caller-supplied x-opencode-directory before memory is attributed to the pinned workspace, so it needs the same ancestor-walking, symlink-aware behavior as Filesystem.containsReal rather than falling back directly to path.resolve.

Fixed in da254e7 — withinRoot now delegates to Filesystem.containsReal, as suggested, rather than a new implementation. Covered by four tests: an existing symlinked escape, the not-yet-existing descendant under one (the case that bypassed), a genuine not-yet-existing descendant that must still be allowed, and a .. escape.

CRITICAL: Scope the authorization memo to the active credential

The visibility check is authenticated with altimateApiKey, but this cache key contains only tenant, API URL, and datamate ID. If credentials switch to another user/key in the same tenant, that principal inherits the previous principal's successful authorization for five minutes and listDatamates() is skipped, allowing pinned skills/memory access before the new credential has demonstrated workspace visibility. Include a non-reversible credential identity (the existing memory index uses an API-key digest) or clear this memo whenever credentials change.

Fixed in da254e7. The cache key is now tenant|apiUrl|<sha256(apiKey) first 16 hex>|datamateId, following the memory index — only a digest is stored, never the key. Consolidated onto a single getCredentials() read while I was there: tenantKey() resolves the same credentials internally, so there were two reads and two failure paths logging an identical line.

CRITICAL: Do not treat every API failure as an offline grace period

listDatamates() throws typed errors for 403 and other HTTP failures as well as transport errors, but the catch collapses all of them to accessible = null. Once any memo exists, this branch therefore continues returning bound after credential revocation, a 401/403, or indefinitely repeated failures; the memo's age is never bounded after the first successful validation. Restrict stale serving to positively classified transient transport/5xx failures and impose a finite stale-if-error window; authorization and credential failures must invalidate/fail closed.

Fixed in da254e7, and you were more right than my first attempt. I initially classified on err.status — but api-client throws ForbiddenError/NotFoundError/NotConfiguredError as plain named errors with NO status field, so a real 403 fell through to the "no status = transport failure" branch and got the grace anyway. Now classified by error TYPE, with an unclassifiable error counting as NOT transient — for a check gating authorization the default has to be fail-closed. Added a finite 30-minute stale window too. Tests now use real ForbiddenError / WorkspaceApiError instances instead of synthetic ones with a hand-set status, which were testing the mock rather than the client.

WARNING: The memoized hot path still starts a synchronous Git process on every resolution

resolveProjectIdentifier() calls spawnSync("git", ..., { timeout: 3000 }). This line executes even on a fresh pin-validation cache hit, while resolveBindingOutcome is called per turn and per memory write, so each hot-path lookup can block the server event loop for up to three seconds. Cache the derived identifier by canonical directory (or compute it once with the pin validation) so the HTTP memoization actually removes repeated blocking work.

Fixed in da254e7 — resolveProjectIdentifier is cached per directory. Confirmed your reading: it is spawnSync("git", …) with a 3s timeout, and this function is reached per turn and per memory write, so it was a synchronous subprocess on both hot paths regardless of the HTTP memo.

WARNING: This test never exercises the post-TTL failure path

The first resolution stores a fresh five-minute memo, so after replacing the stub the second call returns from the cache without invoking listDatamates() at all. The assertion would pass even if the intended stale-on-network-error branch were removed. Add an injectable clock/expiry seam, advance beyond PIN_VALIDATION_TTL_MS, and assert that the second call actually attempted revalidation before accepting the prior verdict.

Correct, and fixed in da254e7 — the assertion would have passed with the branch deleted. Added an injectable clock (__resetPinValidation(clock)), and the test now advances past PIN_VALIDATION_TTL_MS before forcing the failure. That change immediately failed the test for the right reason: the old unreachable fixture threw a plain Error, not the WorkspaceApiError the client actually throws.

Not fixed here — flagging rather than silently skipping. You are right that a unknown refusal leaves a previously-pinned snapshot in place, but the pin-aware deactivation belongs with the skill-sync purge-before-fetch work that is already called out as deferred in the PR description (purge the previous workspace's snapshot BEFORE resolving the new one, so a failed switch leaves no skills rather than the old ones). Doing half of it here — deactivating on refusal without the purge-on-switch — would give the same stale-snapshot class a second, differently-shaped code path. Happy to pull it forward into this PR if you would rather not split it.

Fixed in da254e7 — classified by error type rather than status. Worth noting the status-based approach I tried first did NOT work: ForbiddenError carries no status, so a real 403 still took the transport branch. WorkspaceApiError is the only one with a status, and it is also what a genuine "cannot reach" is reported as with status undefined. Also added a finite 30-minute grace window so an endlessly failing endpoint cannot grant an unbounded licence.

Consensus code review round-up

Ran an independent multi-model review of this PR. Posting a round-up rather than duplicate inline threads, since the existing automated reviews here (kilo-code-bot, coderabbitai, cubic-dev-ai) already cover most of what the panel found, at the same or better detail.

Independently corroborated — worth prioritizing

These were flagged by multiple independent tools/models without cross-contamination, which is a stronger signal than any single review:

  • withinRoot symlink bypass (pin.tswithinRoot/canonical): for a not-yet-existing path under a symlinked ancestor, realpathSync fails and the code falls back to a lexical path comparison, which can be fooled into treating a directory outside the pinned root as inside it. Already flagged inline by kilo-code-bot, coderabbitai (with a working diff fix using path.relative), and cubic-dev-ai. The panel reached the same conclusion independently — this one's real, and Filesystem.containsReal (already in the codebase, util/filesystem.ts) handles the nonexistent-descendant case correctly and could be reused directly instead of writing a new fix.
  • Empty-string pin vars fail open (pin.ts:84): if (!rawId && !name && !root) return { kind: "absent" } treats three present-but-empty env vars the same as three unset ones, letting a malformed pin fall through to ordinary resolution instead of failing closed — contradicting the PR's own stated invariant. Already flagged by cubic-dev-ai at the same line.
  • pinValidation cache key isn't scoped to the credential, only tenant+URL (state.tsresolvePinnedBinding): if credentials switch to a different account within the same tenant/URL while serve is running, the new account can inherit the previous account's successful authorization for up to PIN_VALIDATION_TTL_MS (5 min). Flagged by both kilo-code-bot and coderabbitai; verified against the actual tenantKey() implementation — it really does return only {tenant, apiUrl}, no key identity. Worth fixing alongside the other two.

Verified by execution, not just static analysis

  • The stale-name-on-offline-fallback bug (datamateName regressing to the env value instead of memo.name after TTL expiry + a network failure) — already flagged by cubic-dev-ai with the identical one-line fix (let datamateName = memo?.name ?? pin.datamateName). I reproduced it directly with a mocked clock + a forced listDatamates failure:
    first call name:  renamed_on_server   (correct — validated against server)
    [TTL expires, network down]
    second call name: old_env_name        (wrong — should stay "renamed_on_server")
    
    Worth noting this is currently untested — the existing "unreachable AFTER a successful validation" test doesn't exercise this branch, since it calls resolveBindingOutcome again immediately, while the memo is still fresh.
  • Ran the full new test suite and a typecheck against the changed files: bun test test/altimate/workspace/pin.test.ts test/altimate/workspace/state-pin.test.ts → 23/23 pass; tsc --noEmit reports no errors against pin.ts/state.ts.

Not yet flagged elsewhere

  • Pin env vars leak into Bash-tool child processes (packages/opencode/src/tool/bash.ts:193-215, not part of this diff): the bash tool already strips ALTIMATE_CODE_SERVE from spawned children but leaves ALTIMATE_PINNED_WORKSPACE_ID/NAME/ROOT in the child's env. Currently inert (readPin checks the serve flag first), but if a spawned child itself runs a nested altimate-code serve, the inherited pin vars would reactivate under a session that was never actually given that pin. Suggest stripping all three pin vars alongside ALTIMATE_CODE_SERVE at the same spot for defense in depth.
  • binding.pinned has no production consumer yet (state.ts:53, 478): grepped the full packages/ tree — the only non-test reference is the strip-on-disk-read at state.ts:100. Likely intentional groundwork for a follow-up PR given the docstring, but worth a one-line note so it doesn't read as dead code later.

Overall

Design and test discipline are solid — fail-closed philosophy, root-scoped confinement, revalidation TTLs, and clean separation from the TUI's --workspace flow are all handled carefully. The two MAJOR issues above (symlink bypass, empty-pin fail-open) are both reachable and worth fixing before merge; the credential-scoping gap is a good candidate for the same pass since it touches the same function.

`altimate-code serve` is launched by the VS Code / Cursor extension, which
knows which datamate the user picked in its panel. Until now nothing carried
that across, so skills and memory followed whatever binding the project had on
the backend rather than the selection on screen.

`resolveBindingOutcome` is the single place both consumers funnel through
(`skill-sync.ts` and `memory-sync.ts`), so honouring the pin there is all that
is needed — neither module changes.

- `pin.ts` — parse `ALTIMATE_PINNED_WORKSPACE_{ID,NAME,ROOT}` into a tagged
  `absent | invalid | valid`. A present-but-broken pin is `invalid` and fails
  closed, because falling through can resolve a DIFFERENT workspace.
- A deliberately separate namespace from `ALTIMATE_RESOLVED_WORKSPACE_*`:
  `launch-resolve.ts` sets only `..._ID` for the TUI's `--workspace` flag, so
  sharing the namespace would read as a partial pin and fail that flow closed.
  `readPin` also stands down unless `ALTIMATE_CODE_SERVE` is set.
- `state.ts` — the pin outranks the cached binding and server auto-adoption,
  is validated against `listDatamates()` (memoized on `REVALIDATE_MS`, since
  this runs per turn and per memory write), is scoped to the launch root, and
  is never persisted. `pinned` is stripped from anything read off disk.
- Offline splits on whether this process ever validated: never-validated is
  `unknown`, previously-validated keeps serving, matching what this module
  already does for a cached binding.

23 tests covering the parser, precedence, fail-closed paths, root scoping, the
offline split and memoization.

Addresses the consensus round-up and the three automated reviews on #1320.

Security:
- `withinRoot` delegates to `Filesystem.containsReal` instead of comparing
  `realpathSync` output with a LEXICAL fallback. The fallback was a real
  bypass: a not-yet-created path under a symlinked ancestor failed to resolve,
  fell back to the raw string, and passed the prefix test — enough to attribute
  an outside project's skills and memory to the pinned workspace, via the
  caller-supplied `x-opencode-directory` on an unsecured server.
- `readPin` distinguishes missing keys from empty values, so three
  present-but-empty variables fail closed instead of reading as "no pin".
- The validation memo is keyed on a digest of the API key as well as the
  tenant, so a credential switch inside one tenant no longer inherits the
  previous principal's authorization for the TTL.
- API failures are classified by ERROR TYPE, not by a `status` property.
  `api-client` throws `ForbiddenError`/`NotFoundError`/`NotConfiguredError` as
  plain named errors carrying no status, so the first attempt at this sorted a
  real 403 into the transient bucket and granted it the offline grace — the
  opposite of the intent. An unclassifiable error now counts as NOT transient:
  for a check gating authorization, the default has to be fail-closed.
- The offline grace is bounded (30 min), so an endpoint that fails forever
  cannot hand out an unbounded licence.
- `tool/bash.ts` strips the three pin variables from spawned children
  alongside `ALTIMATE_CODE_SERVE`, so a nested `serve` cannot inherit a pin its
  session was never given.

Correctness and cost:
- The offline fallback keeps the server-confirmed name instead of regressing to
  the environment's, which can be stale after a rename.
- `resolveProjectIdentifier` is cached per directory. It runs
  `spawnSync("git", …)` with a 3s timeout, and `resolveBindingOutcome` is
  reached per turn AND per memory write, so it was a synchronous subprocess on
  both hot paths.
- One credentials read rather than two; two paths previously logged an
  identical line, so the message could not say which had refused.

Tests:
- Symlink containment: an existing symlinked escape, a not-yet-existing
  descendant under one, a genuine not-yet-existing descendant (which must still
  be allowed), and a `..` escape.
- An injectable clock, so the stale-on-error branches are actually crossed. The
  previous test re-resolved while the memo was still fresh and would have
  passed with that branch deleted.
- Real `ForbiddenError` / `WorkspaceApiError` instead of synthetic errors with
  a hand-set `status`, which tested the mock rather than the client.
- Pin environment variables are snapshotted and restored, not deleted.

Thanks for the round-up — the cross-tool corroboration was the right call, and the pointer to Filesystem.containsReal saved writing a second containment implementation.

All three prioritized items plus the verified-by-execution one are fixed in da254e7 (rebased onto current main):

  • withinRoot symlink bypass — delegates to Filesystem.containsReal. Four tests: existing symlinked escape, not-yet-existing descendant under one (the exploitable case), a genuine not-yet-existing descendant that must still be allowed, and ...
  • Empty-string pin varsreadPin tests key presence, not truthiness.
  • Credential-scoped memo — key is now tenant|apiUrl|sha256(apiKey)[0:16]|datamateId, following the memory index. Also collapsed to one getCredentials() read; tenantKey() resolves the same credentials internally, so there were two, with both failure paths logging an identical line.
  • Stale name on offline fallback — seeded from memo?.name, and now covered by a test that genuinely crosses the TTL.

Two things worth reporting back:

Your reproduction method was the one that held up. My first pass at the 401/403 finding classified failures on err.status, and it did not work: api-client throws ForbiddenError/NotFoundError/NotConfiguredError as plain named errors with no status field, so a real 403 fell through the "no status means transport failure" branch and got the grace anyway. My test passed only because it used a synthetic Object.assign(new Error(), {status: 403}) — testing the mock, not the client. Now classified by error type, with an unclassifiable error counting as NOT transient, plus a finite 30-minute grace window. Tests use real ForbiddenError / WorkspaceApiError instances.

The bash-tool leak is fixed (ALTIMATE_PINNED_WORKSPACE_{ID,NAME,ROOT} stripped alongside ALTIMATE_CODE_SERVE) — thanks for catching something outside the diff. binding.pinned now carries a note saying why it has no consumer: the write guard it exists for is the memory-sync adopted gap, which is pre-existing and shipping separately.

One I deliberately did not take: cubic's suggestion to deactivate stale pinned snapshots on an unknown refusal. It is a real gap, but it belongs with the skill-sync purge-before-fetch work already deferred in the PR description; doing half of it here would give the same stale-snapshot class a second code path. Flagged on the thread — say the word if you would rather it came forward.

615 workspace tests + 19 bash tests pass on the rebased branch; tsc clean across the five changed files. (There are pre-existing packages/tui/dialog-move-session.tsx errors on main from the wip: bridge checkpoint — not from this branch.)

CRITICAL: Bind the visibility check to the credential used for the memo key

The cache key is derived from the credential snapshot read at line 496, but WorkspaceApi.listDatamates() calls creds() and rereads the credential file independently. If credentials change between those reads, the server can authorize the request with credential B while this result is stored under credential A's digest; switching back to A then reuses B's workspace visibility for the TTL. Pass the captured credentials into this request, or reread and compare them before storing the successful verdict.

WARNING: Bound the caller-controlled project identifier cache

This process-global map never evicts entries, and its key is the raw directory supplied through x-opencode-directory. Any local caller can send an unlimited sequence of distinct in-root paths (including lexical aliases), causing permanent map growth and repeated synchronous Git probes for equivalent paths. Canonicalize the key and use a bounded or instance-lifetime cache so the hot-path optimization cannot become a memory-growth vector.

🟠 Major · Preserve unresolved binding status during memory loads. · memory-sync.ts:1028-1034

packages/opencode/src/altimate/workspace/memory-sync.ts:1028-1034
🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Preserve unresolved binding status during memory loads. A valid pin reaches resolvePinnedBinding. When validation expires and WorkspaceApi.listDatamates() is unreachable beyond the stale grace period, that function returns { status: "unknown" }. resolveBinding collapses this result to null, and currentBinding passes it to loadWorkspaceMemory, which returns { status: "unlinked" }.

LoadOutcome has no unknown variant. commitLoad therefore clears the session overlay, and refresh reports status: "unlinked" with an empty memory result. A temporary validation failure can thus make a linked workspace appear unlinked and remove its in-memory workspace context.

Carry BindingOutcome through the memory-load path. Map unbound to unlinked, map unknown to a distinct load status, and preserve the existing overlay for unknown in both hydration and refresh.

Re-review of da254e7 — consensus round-up

Verified this commit directly against source (read the actual post-fix files, traced the call chains) rather than re-running the full panel, since the fix was already scoped tightly to the round-1 findings.

Confirmed fixed

All 9 issues from round 1 are correctly addressed:

  • withinRoot symlink bypass — now delegates to Filesystem.containsReal instead of the lexical fallback.
  • Empty-string pin vars fail openreadPin now tests key presence, not truthiness.
  • Credential-scoping gap — cache key now includes a digest of the API key, not just tenant+URL (see one residual gap below).
  • 401/403 misclassified as transient — now classified by error type (ForbiddenError/NotFoundError/etc.) instead of a status property that doesn't exist on those errors.
  • Unbounded stale-serving on outage — bounded by PIN_STALE_IF_ERROR_MS.
  • Pin env vars leaking into Bash-tool children — stripped alongside ALTIMATE_CODE_SERVE, exactly as suggested.
  • Stale-name regression on TTL expirydatamateName now seeded from memo?.name ?? pin.datamateName.
  • Synchronous git spawnSync on every resolutionresolveProjectIdentifier now cached per directory via cachedProjectIdentifier.
  • ✅ Tests added for all of the above, including an injectable clock so the TTL-expiry branches are actually exercised (the old test would have passed with that branch deleted).

Nice fix — tightly scoped, and the commit message accurately describes what changed.

New from this commit — worth a follow-up

  1. resolvePinnedBinding's credential snapshot doesn't reach the actual authorization call (state.ts:496 vs. api-client.ts:136): the cache key is built from a creds snapshot read once, but WorkspaceApi.listDatamates()req() independently re-reads credentials internally to build the Authorization header. If credentials change between those two reads (e.g. an account switch mid-turn), the visibility result for the new credential can get stored under the old credential's digest. Confirmed by reading both call sites — the two reads really are independent. Pass the captured creds through to the request instead of letting it re-derive them.

  2. projectIdentifierCache has no bound or eviction (state.ts:461): this is the new cache that fixed the git spawnSync-per-turn issue, but it's keyed by the raw, caller-supplied directory string with no TTL or size cap. Since withinRoot only checks path containment — not that the directory is real — and serve "runs unsecured by default" per this file's own comments, a caller could grow this map without bound by sending many distinct nonexistent subpaths under the pinned root. Worth a bounded cache (LRU or similar) rather than a plain Map.

  3. No in-flight request de-duplication (state.ts:510-515): concurrent calls that both see a cold or expired memo each independently fire listDatamates() before either writes back to pinValidation. Correctness is fine, just wasted requests under concurrent load — a per-cacheKey in-flight promise would fix it.

Lower priority

  • Windows env-var case-insensitivity in the bash.ts stripping — applies equally to the three vars that were already being stripped before this PR, not specific to the new lines, so not really a regression here.

Deferred, flagging rather than re-litigating

  • memory-sync.ts's LoadOutcome collapses unknown and unbound into the same unlinked state on load, despite that file's own comment warning against exactly this collapse. Pre-existing, not touched by this PR — but pinned sessions now produce unknown more often (TTL expiry, non-transient rejection, outside-root), so this PR increases how often the latent bug is reachable. Same shape as the skill-sync stale-snapshot deferral already discussed on this PR — reasonable to punt to a follow-up rather than pull into this one, but worth tracking alongside it.

Overall

Round 1's issues are solidly closed out. Item 1 above (credential TOCTOU) is the one I'd want fixed before merge, since it's a gap in the very mechanism that closed the original credential-scoping hole. Item 2 is worth a quick bound. 3 and the deferred item are fine as follow-ups.

Round-2 review findings on #1320.

- The cache key was built from a credentials snapshot, but `listDatamates()`
  never uses it: `api-client`'s `req()` reads credentials again itself to build
  the `Authorization` header. So the answer could be authorized by a different
  principal than the key names, and filing it under the old digest reopened the
  hole the digest was added to close. The credential is now re-checked after
  the response; if it moved, the result is discarded and the call fails closed
  rather than being cached. `unknown`, not `unbound`, so nothing downstream
  deactivates a snapshot over it.
- `projectIdentifierCache` is bounded. Its key is a caller-supplied directory
  and `withinRoot` proves containment, not existence, so on an unsecured
  `serve` a caller could grow it without limit via distinct nonexistent
  subpaths. A hit now refreshes recency, so eviction drops the least recently
  used entry and a flood of one-shot lookups cannot evict the live root.
- Concurrent resolutions that both miss the memo now share one `listDatamates()`
  request instead of each firing their own. Only the caller that started the
  request clears the slot, and only if it still holds its own promise, so a
  waiter cannot delete a newer request and put the duplicates back.

Tests: credential rotation mid-request is not cached and does not poison the
next call; three concurrent resolutions issue one request; a failed shared
request leaves the next resolution able to succeed.

Also corrects a comment that claimed a single credentials read — the validation
path now reads twice by design — and drops an intermediate left over from the
previous commit.

Round-2 items fixed in 44af950.

1. Credential TOCTOU — fixed. Confirmed your reading by tracing both sites: resolvePinnedBinding reads credentials once for the cache key, and api-client's req() calls its own creds()AltimateApi.getCredentials() to build the Authorization header. Genuinely independent reads.

I did not pass the snapshot through to the request — req() is a shared private helper and threading credentials into it would change every WorkspaceApi call site for one caller's benefit. Instead the credential is re-checked after the response: if the digest moved, the result is discarded, nothing is cached, and the call fails closed. unknown, not unbound, so no snapshot gets deactivated over it, and the next call resolves cleanly under stable credentials. Tested both ways — rotation mid-request is not cached, and it does not poison the following call.

2. Unbounded projectIdentifierCache — fixed. Capped, and a hit now refreshes recency, so eviction drops the least recently used entry. That detail matters: plain FIFO would have let a flood of one-shot lookups evict the live root and put the spawnSync back on the hot path, which is the thing that cache exists to prevent.

3. In-flight de-duplication — added. One subtlety worth calling out: only the caller that started the request clears the slot, and only if it still holds its own promise. A waiter clearing on settle could delete a newer request a third caller had just registered, which would quietly reintroduce the duplicates. Also covered the rejection path — the slot must clear on failure too, or a single outage would wedge every later call.

Windows env-var case-insensitivity — agreed it is not a regression from this PR; leaving it.

memory-sync's LoadOutcome collapse — agreed, and thanks for noting this PR raises how often it is reachable rather than just calling it pre-existing. Tracking it with the skill-sync stale-snapshot deferral; both belong in the same follow-up.

618 workspace tests pass (3 new), tsc clean across the changed files. I also corrected a comment from the previous commit that claimed a single credentials read — the validation path now reads twice by design, and the comment said otherwise.

CRITICAL: The post-request check still permits an ABA credential race

This only compares the API-key digest before and after listDatamates(). If credentials change from A to B before req() reads them and back to A before this check, B's visibility response is accepted and cached under A for the TTL. The check also ignores a changed tenant or API URL when the key is unchanged. The validation request must use the exact credential snapshot that produced cacheKey (for example via a credential-taking API method); a second ambient read cannot prove which credential authorized the request.

555-571: 🔒 Security & Privacy | 🛡️ Analyzed with Security Review | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Authorization Bypass

Reachability: Internal
Exploitability: Difficult
CWE: CWE-367 — Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) Race Condition

Bind pin validation to one complete credential snapshot.

listDatamatesOnce() re-reads credentials. The later check compares only the API-key digest.

If credentials change from A to B during listDatamates() and back to A before Line 564, this code caches B's visibility result under A's key. The same failure occurs when altimateUrl or altimateInstanceName changes while the API key stays the same. A later A request can then return bound without validating A's workspace visibility.

Pass the captured credentials to the API request, or bind the request to a credential generation. Do not memoize a result unless the request used the same tenant, URL, and credential identity as cacheKey. Add a regression test that returns A, then B during listDatamates(), then A again.

As per coding guidelines, protect shared cache state from async races.

Approving after two rounds of review.

Round 1 flagged 2 MAJOR issues (withinRoot symlink bypass, empty-string pin vars failing open) plus a credential-scoping gap and several MINOR items — all fixed in da254e7, verified against source with an executable reproduction of the trickiest one (the TTL-expiry name regression).

Round 2 surfaced 3 issues introduced by that fix itself (a credential TOCTOU in the new digest-scoped cache, an unbounded project-identifier cache, and duplicate concurrent listDatamates() calls) — all fixed in 44af950, verified directly against source: the TOCTOU is closed by a post-response credential recheck that fails closed on mismatch, the cache is now LRU-bounded at 256 entries, and concurrent misses share one in-flight request with correct cleanup on both success and failure paths.

Two items remain explicitly deferred by design, not oversight: Windows env-var case-insensitivity in the bash.ts stripping (pre-existing pattern, not a regression here), and memory-sync.ts's LoadOutcome collapsing unknown/unbound (pre-existing, tracked alongside the skill-sync stale-snapshot follow-up). Both are reasonable to punt.

No outstanding CRITICAL or MAJOR findings. 618 workspace tests passing per the author, tsc clean on changed files.

Bot review triage — what's actually still open in 44af950

Went through every automated-reviewer thread on this PR (kilo-code-bot, coderabbitai, cubic-dev-ai — 40 comments total) and checked each against the current code, since GitHub's "resolved" toggle on several of them doesn't match what's actually fixed. Splitting into three buckets:

Already fixed, safe to resolve those threads

All of these are addressed in da254e7 or 44af9507 even though several threads are still showing as unresolved in the UI:

  • kilo-code-bot's withinRoot symlink bypass, credential-scoping, and 401/403-misclassification CRITICALs (round 1)
  • kilo-code-bot's git-spawnSync-per-resolution and post-TTL-test WARNINGs (round 1)
  • cubic-dev-ai's duplicate 401/403-misclassification finding (round 1)
  • kilo-code-bot's unbounded-projectIdentifierCache WARNING (round 2) — now LRU-capped at 256
  • cubic-dev-ai's in-flight-dedup suggestion (round 2) — now shares one request per cache key

Genuinely still open — worth a decision before merge

  1. kilo-code-bot, CRITICAL — ABA credential race (state.ts around the post-request credential recheck): the check only compares an API-key digest before and after listDatamates(). If credentials go A→B→A during that call, B's visibility answer gets cached under A's key for the TTL — the before/after comparison can't distinguish "never changed" from "changed and changed back." Fix needs the validation request to use the exact credential snapshot that produced cacheKey, not a second ambient read.

  2. coderabbitai, MAJOR — containment-check TOCTOU (withinRootcachedProjectIdentifier): withinRoot validates the directory before the credential/network awaits, but cachedProjectIdentifier re-resolves the raw directory string afterward rather than reusing the canonical path that was actually validated. A symlink swapped in that gap could shift which project's identity gets attributed to the pinned workspace. Suggested fix: have containment return the canonical path and thread that through instead of re-resolving the caller-controlled string.

These two are structurally the same shape — a value is validated once, then re-derived after an await gap instead of the validated value being carried through. Worth fixing both together.

Already explicitly deferred (author's call, not re-litigating)

  • Stale skill snapshot on a definitive unknown refusal — tracked alongside the skill-sync purge-before-fetch follow-up.
  • Windows env-var case-insensitivity in the bash.ts stripping — pre-existing pattern, not a regression from this PR.
  • cubic-dev-ai's P3 nit that the post-request-check log message says "credentials changed" even when the real cause was an unreadable credentials file — cosmetic, fails closed correctly either way, low priority.

@saravmajestic — given the ABA race and the containment TOCTOU are both real gaps in code that already went through two hardening passes, do you want these folded into a third fix before merge, or tracked as an immediate follow-up? Happy to re-review either way.

…-deriving

Round-3 review findings on #1320. Both are the same shape: a value is validated
once, then re-derived after an await gap instead of the validated value being
carried through.

Credential (ABA). The previous fix compared a credential digest before and
after `listDatamates()`, which cannot distinguish "unchanged" from "changed and
changed back" — an A->B->A switch passed the comparison while the answer had
been served as B. `req()` now accepts `actAs`, and the pin's validation request
is handed the exact credential its cache key was built from. There is nothing
left to compare when the request and the key are the same credential by
construction, so the before/after check is deleted rather than elaborated.

`actAs` is additive: every other `req()` and `listDatamates()` call site is
untouched and still resolves the ambient credential. The one behavioural
difference is documented at the option — a caller passing `actAs` skips the
`isConfigured()` gate, which is a file-existence check on the file it has just
read, so deleting the credentials file mid-flight no longer aborts that single
request.

Path. Containment was checked against the caller's directory string, then the
identifier was resolved from that same string after the credential and network
awaits. A symlink swapped in the gap would be resolved by the second call and
not the first, so the path that was authorised and the path that was used need
not be the same. `resolveWithinRoot` returns the canonical directory it
validated and the caller carries it forward. `withinRoot` stays as the boolean
predicate, now expressed in terms of it, so its contract and tests are
unchanged.

Tests: the verification request carries the captured credential; an A->B->A
swap mid-request cannot mis-attribute the answer; the canonical path is what
callers receive, including for a directory that does not exist yet.

Verified the two failures in `test/altimate/tools/datamate-list-integrations`
are pre-existing — they reproduce on a clean tree with these changes stashed.

Both round-3 items fixed in 6d3a834 — threaded rather than compared, as discussed.

1. ABA credential race. req() now takes an actAs option and the pin's validation request is handed the exact credential its cache key was built from. The before/after comparison is deleted, not elaborated: once the request and the key are the same credential by construction there is nothing left to compare, and no comparison can distinguish A→B→A anyway.

Additive — every other req()/listDatamates() call site is untouched and still resolves the ambient credential.

2. Containment TOCTOU. resolveWithinRoot returns the canonical directory it validated, and the caller carries that forward instead of re-resolving the caller's string after the awaits. withinRoot stays as the boolean predicate, now expressed in terms of it, so its contract and its tests are unchanged.

Self-review notes

Three things I checked rather than assumed:

  • actAs skips the isConfigured() gate. That gate is only Filesystem.exists(credentialsPath()) — the same file the caller has just read successfully. So it adds no risk, but it does mean deleting the credentials file mid-flight no longer aborts that one request. Documented at the option rather than left implicit.
  • The shared in-flight promise is still safe. Two callers only join the same request when cacheKey matches, and that key contains tenant, apiUrl and the credential digest — so a joiner cannot inherit a request made as a different principal.
  • A test I had written failed, correctly. It asserted unknown on a mid-request credential change, which encoded the old fail-closed mechanism. With threading, the answer genuinely belongs to the captured credential, so bound is right. Replaced with two stronger tests that assert the request actually carries the captured credential, including the A→B→A case a comparison cannot see.

Verification

622 workspace tests pass; 1530 pass / 0 fail across test/altimate/workspace + test/cli, which covers the other six listDatamates consumers. tsc clean on the changed files.

The two failures in test/altimate/tools/datamate-list-integrations are pre-existing — I confirmed by stashing these changes and re-running on a clean tree, where they still fail 2/3.

On the earlier API-key-vs-accountFingerprint tension I raised: threading makes it moot for this path. accountFingerprint deliberately excludes the key because comparing it would abort a legitimate rotation — but that reasoning only applies to comparison, and there is no longer a comparison here. The key digest stays in the cache key, where it is doing the thing round 1 asked for: keeping two principals on one tenant from sharing an authorization.

CRITICAL: Nonexistent paths still reopen the containment race

When directory does not exist, this returns its unresolved lexical path after containsReal validates only the nearest existing ancestor. During the credential/network awaits in resolvePinnedBinding, a caller can create one of those missing components as a symlink outside the pinned root; cachedProjectIdentifier then passes this same string to spawnSync/realpathSync, which follows the new symlink and attributes the outside project's identity to the pinned workspace. The value carried forward must not contain unresolved path components (or nonexistent directories must fail closed), otherwise this fixes the race only for directories that already existed at validation time.

🔒 Security & Privacy | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Reject nonexistent pinned paths or resolve them without following later symlinks. resolveWithinRoot still returns a lexical path when the requested directory does not exist. After the credential and listDatamates awaits, resolveProjectIdentifier runs git with that path as cwd and calls realpathSync again. A local caller can create a symlink at that path during the await, so the pinned binding can receive an outside repository's repoRemote or projectPath. Memory sync then tags project memory from that directory with the pinned datamateId, mixing data across workspace boundaries.

Path Traversal

Reachability: External
Exploitability: Moderate
CWE: CWE-367 — Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) Race Condition

Keep nonexistent descendants stable after containment validation.

resolveWithinRoot returns path.resolve(directory) when the target does not exist. That value is only a lexical path. During the credential and network awaits, a local caller can create that path as a symlink to an outside directory.

If resolveProjectIdentifier follows the new symlink at Line 607, the initial containment check authorizes one path and the returned binding uses another path. Return a stable existing ancestor plus unresolved suffix, or revalidate immediately before the filesystem operation.

This is the same containment TOCTOU property reported in the previous review, but the nonexistent-path fallback can still preserve the race.

Based on learnings, path containment must use the resolved path that was validated and must reject paths that resolve outside the root.

Isolate the process-global API stubs.

These tests directly replace WorkspaceApi.listDatamates, AltimateApi.isConfigured, and AltimateApi.getCredentials on the imported module objects. afterEach only clears the pin environment. The API methods remain stubbed until afterAll, so another test file can observe the fake workspace list or credentials while this suite is active.

CI runs the full packages/opencode suite with Bun's default parallelism. Use an injected validation dependency scoped to this test, or run this suite in an isolated process. Moving restoration to afterEach alone does not prevent cross-file overlap.

* fix(workspace): close the v0.12.1 release-review findings on the pin/identity seam

Five-persona review of v0.12.0..main. #1320 (IDE pin) and #1330
(identity every turn) changed `resolveBindingOutcome` from opposite sides
and were never reviewed together; every item here is on that seam.

- A pin served from the offline grace window is marked `stale`, so the
  identity section says "last known" for it as it already did for a
  cached link. `pinValidation` is bounded like the other caches.
- Identity's memo is keyed on the credential digest as well as the
  tenant and host — two accounts on one tenant no longer share an entry
  (the pin cache in `state.ts` already did this).
- Under a pin, identity's deadline fallback never reaches for the
  project's own cached link — the workspace the pin exists to override.
- A pinned session is described as pinned by the IDE extension, with the
  caveat that warehouse tool routing still follows the project's own
  link (#1337); the unknown copy no longer promises that retrying helps.
- The persistent `shell` tool strips the same host markers as `bash`
  (`ALTIMATE_CODE_SERVE`, the pin trio, headless, non-interactive) via a
  shared `stripHostMarkers`, so a nested `serve` cannot inherit a pin.
- `pin.ts` states the extension contract: a pin is fixed for the life of
  the process; a panel switch means relaunching `serve`.
- Docs: the three pin variables and `ALTIMATE_CODE_SERVE` in cli.md, and
  a note on the identity line and the pin under "Workspaces (pilot)".

Tests: pinned-session copy, pin-aware fallback, same-tenant credential
switch, grace-path stale, host-marker stripping. Each guard was deleted
once to confirm its test fails.

* fix(workspace): pin ids are decimal digits; the identity cap fits every shape

Two defects the v0.12.1 adversarial tests found.

- `readPin` took any string `Number()` parses — "1e3", "0x10", "1.0" —
  as an id. The extension never writes those; only decimal digits (with
  surrounding whitespace) are a pin now, the rest fail closed as before.
- `MAX_SECTION_CHARS` (1,000) was below the pinned-and-stale identity copy
  with a budget-sized label (1,238), so `render` failed closed and dropped
  the name — and for the plain stale shape (1,078) too. Raised to 1,500;
  a test renders every shape with the worst-case label and checks the
  name survives.

Adds `test/skill/release-v0.12.1-adversarial.test.ts`: hostile pin
environments, root traversal (including the documented symlink bypass),
host-marker stripping by exact name, and the identity copy across
pin × stale × unbound.

* test: the #937 env-plumbing guard checks stripHostMarkers behaviourally

It grepped bash.ts for the literal `delete mergedEnv["ALTIMATE_NON_INTERACTIVE"]`,
which moved into the shared `stripHostMarkers` in this release. The contract
it protected — the non-interactive marker is stripped, auto-answer is kept —
is now asserted on the function.

* fix(workspace): address the bot and multi-model review on the v0.12.1 release PR

- `stripHostMarkers` deletes every spelling of a marker on Windows, where
  environment names are case-insensitive, and the exact name elsewhere.
  The nested `altimate_change` markers around its call site are gone.
- `shell.ts` exposes `shellChildEnv` so the persistent shell's child
  environment is tested on values, not on this file's source text.
- `readPin` treats a whitespace-only id, name or root as a broken pin.
- Identity keeps the resolver behind the deadline even when no complete
  account is configured: the resolver's own credential read is looser
  than `accountScope` and can still reach the network.
- The adversarial test file no longer mutates `XDG_STATE_HOME`; the
  preload already isolates state and nothing here reads it.
- Docs: `ALTIMATE_CODE_SERVE` is set by `serve` itself, not only by the
  extension; ordinary and pinned sessions described separately.
- CHANGELOG narrows the credential-scoping claim to the layer this
  release fixes: the resolver's own five-minute caches are still keyed
  by tenant and host (tracked separately).

* fix(workspace): identity renders unknown without the resolver when no complete account is configured

Nothing can verify a link without a credential, and the resolver's looser
credential read would otherwise reach the network from that path with no
memo, no single-flight and a synchronous git probe. Test asserts the
resolver is not called. Also: the shell child-env test now exercises the
default `process.env` base the production call site relies on.
