feat(task): per-task file observation registry (A2, #1375) - #1394

…oo-Code-Org#1375) Introduces the version token - dev:ino:size:mtimeNs:ctimeNs derived from a single fs.stat - a pure function of a file's on-disk state that every process computing from the same state agrees on. The compare-and-swap write guard (A2/A3) will compare the token observed at read time against the token recomputed before a write to detect stale or replaced files. No production callers yet: this is infrastructure for the file-write safety series (plan: #33), part of upstream epic Zoo-Code-Org#1375.
…oo-Code-Org#1375) Review finding: 'ino is an exact integer' was overstated. Node exposes ino as a float64 number: exact for small POSIX inode numbers, but on modern Windows the file ID exceeds 2^53 so Node's own value is already rounded (verified on node v25: non-zero ino, isSafeInteger=false). It remains deterministic per file (same file -> same token), so the token contract is unchanged; change detection rests on exact dev/size plus the mtime/ctime ns fields. Document the bound instead of claiming exactness.
Zoo-Code-Org#1375) CodeRabbit finding on this PR: the default numeric fs.stat() loses precision (values above 2^53 are rounded, including Windows file IDs) and the ms->ns derivation introduced a double-precision quantum. Fixed by fetching the stat with { bigint: true }: all five token fields (dev, ino, size, mtimeNs, ctimeNs) are exact BigInt values rendered as decimal strings, with no float anywhere. The sub-ms test now asserts an exact 1_000 ns delta instead of bounded drift, and a regression test pins a size of 10^16+1 (> Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER).

Full details: Regression EvidenceExplanation The token-lookup failure branch lacks focused coverage for its stale-entry behavior. Resolution Add native and legacy regression tests that seed each task registry with an observation for the resolved file path, then perform a successful read whose token lookup fails. Assert the read result is preserved and the old observation is removed. This will fail if either ReadFileTool error branch stops calling

226-227: 🗄️ Data Integrity & IntegrationThe recorded token can still describe a different file version.
fs.readFile(fullPath)completes beforecomputeVersionToken(fullPath)stats the path. If another process replaces the file between those calls, the tool returns the old content but records the replacement’s token. The legacy path at Lines 812–813 has the same sequence. Bind the token to the file that supplied the content, and do not record it when that relationship cannot be established. Node.js documents that separate path-based file operations permit intervening filesystem changes. (nodejs.org)This is the read/token mismatch already raised in the previous review; the supplied changes do not remove it.

…fails A read that cannot compute a version token must not leave the entry from an earlier read in the registry: the write guard would then compare against a token that no longer describes the last read. Both the native and legacy paths now remove the entry on lookup failure, and the registry gains a per-path forget operation. Added warm-registry coverage for both the drop and the cold-path no-op. Tests: 78 passed in ReadFileTool.spec.ts, 8 passed in observationRegistry.spec.ts.
Summary
S2 of the file-write safety series (plan: easonLiangWorldedtech/Zoo-Code#33), part of epic #1375. Stacked on S1 (#1383, version token). Introduces the per-task file observation registry (A2): when the agent reads an existing file, the on-disk version token is recorded against the task. The S4 guarded-write will later compare the recorded observation with the token recomputed before a write to detect "the file changed since the read" (stale) or "the file was replaced" (identity change). This PR records observations only — it does not consult them, so behavior is unchanged.
Changes
src/core/task/observationRegistry.ts(new):ObservationRegistry— an in-memoryMap<absolutePath, FileObservation>whereFileObservation = { version: string, observedAt: number };observereplaces on re-observation; plusget/has/clear/size. Pure in-memory, zero I/O, no dependencies.src/core/task/Task.ts: each Task owns anobservationRegistryinstance — parent and subtask observations are independent by construction.src/core/tools/ReadFileTool.ts: after a successful read of an existing file, recordscomputeVersionToken(absolutePath)(S1) into the task's registry. A stat failure never fails the read — the token is best-effort (.catch(() => undefined)).Tests
Notes
fs.statper successful read of an existing file — the same call the S4 write guard will re-run, now cached per task.mainand its diff includes the S1 commits. Merge only after feat(file-safety): file version token for the guarded-write path (A1, #1375) #1383 lands (then this becomes a fast-forward).Review-gate re-trigger (2026-08-30): empty commit a00eef8 (no code change) re-runs CI and CodeRabbit current-head review under the org new PR review gate; the code head remains 2965ad1.
Review feedback (2026-09-14 CodeRabbit cycle): 6b821b2 strengthens both version-token-failure regression tests to assert the read content, not just the path (native: "content"; legacy: "legacy content" alongside the existing path checks). The legacy test additionally points the module-level readWithSlice mock at the legacy content — the legacy path slices the raw read through readWithSlice (ReadFileTool.ts:797) and the mock's beforeEach default ("1 | test content") would otherwise mask what the read produced.
Mutation gate: the branch now contains current upstream/main — the head commit is a merge with current main (7328cbf) as its first parent, the same shape as the CI job's synthetic merge commit. The gate's resolvePullRequestBase resolves a merge-commit head to its first parent, and this branch's last main sync (ba46d1f) predates the gate rewrite, so without this merge every CI run would measure the true PR delta plus every main commit since. With current main in the first-parent position, the gate measures the true PR delta (src/core/task/observationRegistry.ts new file, Task.ts + ReadFileTool.ts changes):
Local preflight on the true delta (7328cbf → 5a4e27e): extension: 8 valid / 8 killed / 0 timeout / 0 survived / 0 noCoverage — PASS (exit 0, digest not stale).
