fix(permissions): match normalized paths for read and bash deny rules - #1524
Conversation
- Evaluate read and bash requests against the authored spelling plus normalized absolute aliases; deny/ask rules match any spelling, allow rules match only the authored spelling so normalization can only tighten a decision - Normalize relative and absolute read paths, resolve literal quoted operands, `cd` sequences and relative `workdir` for bash, and include `ls` - Add symlink-resolved targets as deny-only aliases for read - Treat background `&` lists as non-sequential for directory tracking - Legacy permission ask now checks all denies before prompting - Add regression tests for read, bash and permission evaluation Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Explanation
The PR implements the normalized matching acceptance check for issue
#1496.readresolves paths and supplies absolute and realpath aliases. Regression tests deny relative and absolute sibling paths. The bash changes cover normalized operands,cd, and barels, with regression tests for the reported command forms. However, issue#1496also proposes starting the agent outside the shared results tree and enforcing isolation with an OS sandbox or mount namespace. No such implementation or automated test is present. The PR explicitly excludes both changes.

Issue for this PR
Closes #1496
Type of change
What does this PR do?
Why: permission deny rules written with absolute paths could be sidestepped because the
readandbashtools matched rules against whatever spelling the model happened to use (relative path,.., quoted operand, path aftercd, or a barels).Root cause:
readrequested permission only for the worktree-relative spelling, andbashmatched rules against the raw command text. Absolute rules therefore never saw an equivalent relative spelling. Separately, the legacy permissionaskreturned at the firstaskresult, so a later denied command in the same request could be skipped once the earlier prompt was approved.Before -> after:
readandbashnow submit the authored spelling plus normalized absolute aliases (literal and quoted operands, straight-linecd, relativeworkdir,lsincluding barels; symlink-resolved targets forread).deny/askrules.allowrules still match only the authored spelling, so normalization can tighten a decision but never broadens an allow. Rule precedence (last match wins) is unchanged.asknow rejects any denied pattern before prompting; both permission implementations share one evaluator.&lists no longer propagatecdto later commands.Review notes: an independent review found that an allow rule could match the normalized spelling (and quoting/
../background cases made that unsafe); this was fixed by making aliases deny/ask-only, with regression tests.Scope and limits
deny/askrules, never toallowrules, and the result is the strictest of the authored and alias-aware match. Rules remain last-match-wins, so a later authored allow (including an "always" approval) still overrides an earlier rule for the same command.readadditionally matches the symlink-resolved real path of its target fordeny/askrules.CDPATH,HOME, globs), paths used only by redirections, wrapper commands andsh -c, directory-stack builtins, loop iterations and repeated failingcd, symlinks traversed before..collapsing, reference-file operands, and further operand or whitespace spelling variants beyond those enumerated.How did you verify your code works?

Note
High Risk
Changes core permission evaluation and bash/read tool gating; mistakes could wrongly allow sensitive paths or block legitimate tool use.
Overview
Fixes permission bypasses where deny rules on absolute paths or exact command text did not apply when
readorbashused a different spelling (relative paths,cdchains, quoting, etc.).A shared
PermissionEvaluatemodule evaluates rules against the authored pattern plus optionalpermissionAliasesin request metadata. Aliases only affectdenyandaskmatches (neverallow), and the outcome is the stricter of the authored rule and alias-aware matches. Effect and legacy permissionaskpaths use this evaluator; legacyasksorts patterns so denies are checked before any prompt.readresolves paths from the workspace, then supplies aliases for absolute and symlink-resolved paths.bashparses static shell operands (includingcd/ls, mixed spellings, caps on alias explosion), attaches command-text aliases, and resolvesworkdirrelative to the instance directory.Regression tests cover alias precedence, multi-pattern requests, and “always” approvals that must not cross spellings.
