Split unit U2 of #1833, under the plan on this issue (5993969784 / 5994039786 / 5994053776). Base is U0 (#1910) per the merge order.

Scope (one gate scope): the lock key — canonicalise it through the symlink referent so an alias and its referent share one lock.

Content source of record: kind: commit, base 7c291bb08 → head 6768ccfaf, replayed on the current main tip 9af61f87e so this branch carries nothing that main already has.

Budget (own delta, not the stacked view): 538 a+d / 167 changed executable lines. Inside both caps.

Verification at this head: 27 passed, 1 skipped; ESLint --max-warnings=0 clean on every file in the unit; Prettier clean; src/eslint-suppressions.json never increased.

The GitHub view also carries the unmerged base, so the numbers above are this unit's own delta.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added safer text and byte-file publishing with atomic updates, optional backups, and rollback when publishing fails.
    • File updates follow symlinks to their targets, preserve existing permissions, and report durability or rollback failures.
  • Bug Fixes
    • JSON updates now lock, merge, and publish against the resolved target, so paths pointing to the same file use a consistent target.
    • Cleanup of already-removed temporary files no longer produces a duplicate error.
    • A failure to remove a backup after publishing no longer causes a successful write to be reported as failed.

Walkthrough

The pull request adds safeWriteText for staged text and byte publication with optional backup and rollback. It updates safeWriteJson to resolve symlink targets, lock by canonicalized paths, and delegate publication to safeWriteText.

Changes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 2945a

Concurrent JSON writes through a long symlink chain could overwrite an update. Correct lock-key resolution before merging unless this narrow risk is explicitly accepted.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 2945a

Canonical locking improves ordinary alias handling, and publication failures preserve useful recovery information. However, long symlink chains can still produce different locks during publication, and project configuration updates now follow links to files outside the project without explicit target authorization. The latter risk depends on link control, filesystem permissions, and a configuration-update action.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · security · inferred: Project MCP updates now publish through an existing .roo/mcp.json symlink rather than replacing the link. A party controlling that link can redirect an otherwise project-scoped update to an accessible external configuration, potentially including global tool-approval settings. No referent authorization is enforced along the inspected write path. Exploitation requires a suitable readable JSON referent, permission to replace it, and an update action; intentional external-link support and the wider trust policy remain unresolved.
  • Medium · reliability · inferred: When a referent is temporarily absent during backup publication, a symlink chain longer than eight links can yield an intermediate lock key. If the referent returns before post-lock resolution, the caller can read, merge, and publish under a different lock from referent writers. This permits lost updates or conflicting backup and rollback ownership over the same file. Strict resolution rejects a still-dangling link, but does not validate that a recovered target matches the acquired lock.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The demonstrated exposure is filesystem configuration reachable by the extension host, rather than a new remote endpoint. A project-controlled link can select an external referent, but successful replacement requires accessible JSON and sufficient directory permissions. Linking project MCP configuration to global MCP settings could make a project-labelled update persist beyond that project.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — The conditional attack path is control of a project configuration symlink, followed by a project configuration-update action, then canonical resolution and publication to an external referent. Base behavior already read through symlinks, but replaced the link on write; the changed write destination is the introduced condition. This is an ownership-boundary concern, not a verified arbitrary-content write or command-execution finding.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — MCP webview operations supply server, source, and tool identifiers rather than arbitrary publication paths. The service selects project or global configuration internally and parses its content. MCP connection setup also honors global and server disable flags. These controls constrain invocation and execution, but are distinct from authorization to mutate an external symlink referent.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Commit-aware recovery improves failure containment, but depends on exclusive ownership of the publication target. Divergent fallback lock keys weaken that prerequisite: a rollback can compete with another writer's publication even though both use the advertised advisory-lock workflow.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Define caller-specific referent ownership policy: project configuration writers could reject out-of-scope referents unless the user explicitly authorizes them, while the general publication API remains usable for intentionally external paths.
  • proposed — Make lock fallback distinguish a terminal referent from a truncated or cyclic walk, and reject or safely retry unresolved identity rather than proceeding under an intermediate key. Validate convergence through publication absence, restoration, and concurrent merges.

Full details: Lifecycle Resource Cleanup

Explanation

The new post-commit durability failure path can leave an unowned backup file. In safeWriteText.ts, a failed parent-directory open/fsync throws PostCommitDurabilityError after committed is set (lines 404–425). The catch then skips rollback because committed is true and does not remove or report backupPath (lines 462–501); backup deletion only runs after successful fsync (lines 438–445). safeWriteJson always calls this path with backup: true (lines 126–131). The added test covers this failure scenario but checks only that rollback does not occur (safeWriteText.spec.ts lines 352–369). Repeated post-commit fsync failures can therefore accumulate .bak_ files with no recovery or cleanup owner.

Resolution

Define a lifecycle for the backup when post-commit directory fsync fails. Either clean it up when safe, or preserve it as explicit recovery state: include its path in the error and provide a cleanup/recovery policy so it is not silently orphaned.

…ve (U1, issue 1375)

Split unit U1 of PR 1833. Three changes, each with a test that fails without it:
- a caller-supplied staging path is checked for location and file type before anything is written, so an arbitrary path or a symlink cannot be published onto the target;
- a failed parent-directory fsync on POSIX is reported as PostCommitDurabilityError instead of being swallowed, so a successful return never claims durability the filesystem did not grant;
- the staged file and this write's own staging directory are released before RollbackFailureError is thrown.

Focused coverage for resolveLockKey added: canonical parent directory, a dangling-link chain, and termination at the bounded depth on a two-link cycle.
…ishTarget (U1, issue 1375)

The resolver may fall back to the given path only when lstat also reports the path as absent. An EACCES or EIO failure says nothing about whether the path is a link, so falling back would publish through a link we were not allowed to inspect. Focused tests added for both branches.

… type-sound

compile failed at the unit head on three points:
- RollbackFailureError needs a string backupPath, but the throw now happens after cleanup, so the
  `string | null` narrowing was lost. The failure is now held as { error, backupPath }.
- The async lstat stand-in is built on the Stats prototype so it satisfies fsSync.Stats.
- The realpath/readlink mocks are typed to the real signatures; the readlink mock answers once
  because only the link path is read.

tsc clean, 50 tests pass, ESLint --max-warnings=0 clean, no suppression change.
The any usage this entry covered is gone in the rewritten file, so the count drops 4 -> 3.
eslint --prune-suppressions --max-warnings=0 confirms it.

Confirmed — this is the same defect as the other three fsync threads, not four separate ones.

The rollback in the catch ran whenever backup mode had renamed target -> backup, including when the failure happened after the commit rename had already published. PostCommitDurabilityError tells the caller the content is at the target path, but the catch had already renamed the backup back over that target, so the error message and the file disagreed.

Fixed in the unit that owns the publish path, #1910, commit 58f803ddb: a committed flag is set immediately after the commit rename and the rollback is skipped once it is set, so only a pre-commit failure can restore the backup.

Regression test at the lowest layer that would have failed (commit rename succeeds, post-commit directory open fails, backup mode on): fails without the guard, passes with it. This unit carries the same copy of safeWriteText.ts, so it inherits the fix once #1910 merges first in the chain order U1 -> U2 -> U3 -> U4 -> U5 -> U8 -> U6 -> U7 -> U9.

Resolving as handled.

…rtion

This unit was rebuilt from the pre-fix content source, so its copy of safeWriteText.ts
still restored the backup over a write whose commit rename had already succeeded when
the parent-directory fsync failed, and its spec asserted rmdir generically rather than
against the staging directory this write created.

Both are already settled in unit 1 (fws/u1-atomic-publish). Taking those files here
keeps the shared code byte-identical across the units, so merging the chain in order
does not overwrite unit 1's fix.

Tests: 52 passed in safeWriteText.spec.ts.

safeWriteJson rethrows RollbackFailureError and the telemetry callers record only
error.message, so the generic wrapper message lost the filesystem errno text of the
publish failure. Include the publish error message while keeping the rollback context
(publishError, rollbackError, backupPath) unchanged.

Tests: 52 passed in safeWriteText.spec.ts, ESLint clean with --max-warnings=0.
… rollback failure

The assertion accepted any rmdir argument, so a regression that removed a different
directory still passed. Read this write's own staging directory from fsSync.mkdirSync
and assert that exact path.

Tests: 52 passed in safeWriteText.spec.ts, ESLint clean with --max-warnings=0.

The dump path was the fixed sibling <target>.acl.tmp. A pre-existing user file at that
path is unlinked by the failed-save branch and by both cleanup paths, and two concurrent
writes to the same target share one dump, so one write can restore or delete the other's.
Use the per-write unique name like the staging file.

Tests: 52 passed in safeWriteText.spec.ts, ESLint clean with --max-warnings=0.

🟡 Minor · Replace the fixed symlink-walk limit with cycle detection. · safeWriteText.ts:196-233

src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts:196-233
🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Replace the fixed symlink-walk limit with cycle detection.

When a chain has more than eight links and a merge starts while backup: true temporarily removes the ultimate referent, resolveLockKey returns an intermediate alias after eight readlink calls. A writer through that alias can then acquire a different lock from a writer using the referent. After the referent returns, the alias writer can merge stale JSON and commit without the referent lock, overwriting a later referent update.

Keep cycle termination, but follow non-cyclic chains to their terminal path:

Suggested fix
-	// The walk is bounded so a two-link cycle terminates, and every key it returns
-	// is canonicalized through canonicalDirKey.
+	// The walk detects cycles so every key it returns is canonicalized through
+	// canonicalDirKey without truncating a valid chain.
 export async function resolveLockKey(absoluteFilePath: string): Promise<string> {
 	try {
 		return await canonicalDirKey(await resolvePublishTarget(absoluteFilePath))
 	} catch {
-		// A real readlink throws for anything that is not a link, so a normal chain
-		// ends the walk. Two links that point at each other never would, so the
-		// walk is bounded and callers use the key they actually reached.
+		// A real readlink throws for anything that is not a link, so a normal chain
+		// ends the walk. Detect a cycle instead of truncating a valid chain.
 		let key = absoluteFilePath
-		for (let depth = 0; depth < 8; depth++) {
+		const chain: string[] = []
+		const positions = new Map<string, number>()
+		while (true) {
+			key = await canonicalDirKey(key)
+			const cycleStart = positions.get(key)
+			if (cycleStart !== undefined) return chain.slice(cycleStart).sort()[0]
+			positions.set(key, chain.length)
+			chain.push(key)
 			const target = await fs.readlink(key).catch(() => undefined)
-			if (target === undefined) return await canonicalDirKey(key)
-			key = await canonicalDirKey(path.resolve(path.dirname(key), target))
+			if (target === undefined) return key
+			key = path.resolve(path.dirname(key), target)
 		}
-		return await canonicalDirKey(key)
 	}

Update resolveLockKey’s fallback symlink walk to track visited canonical paths
and terminate when a path repeats, rather than stopping after eight links.
Continue non-cyclic chains until readlink reaches a terminal path,
canonicalizing each path and returning a consistent lock key for cycles.

This unit's copy of ApplyPatchTool still recorded complete: true when the model had no
prior observation, which is the behaviour already fixed on Zoo-Code-Org#1910/Zoo-Code-Org#1911/Zoo-Code-Org#1912/Zoo-Code-Org#1913/Zoo-Code-Org#1914
and on Zoo-Code-Org#1915: the tool's own hunk read is not a model read, so it cannot grant authority
for a later full-file replacement. Tests updated to match, including the move case where
the completeness flag is now false.

Local note: this spec cannot run in this worktree (the 'diff' package is not resolvable
from either node_modules here) and ESLint cannot resolve its config here; CI covers both.
