Martin Vogel 6bf6e34e43 perf(store): evict idle adjacency layers, budget them, own memory class
The daemon keeps adjacency layers (store/graph_mem.h) resident across
requests -- 237 MB for the kernel -- with no end of life but LRU pressure.

- Idle eviction: a layer nobody has held for CBM_GRAPH_MEM_IDLE_EVICT_MS
  (10 minutes, measured from its last release) is evicted on the next
  request: cbm_mcp_handle_tool sweeps after releasing the request store, and
  every acquire sweeps too. No timer thread. Ten minutes outlasts the gaps
  between an agent's graph calls within one task, while a session that moved
  on stops pinning the memory; a wrong guess costs one rebuild (1.2-1.5 s on
  the 17 GB kernel index, tens of ms on ordinary repos). The clock is a test
  seam (cbm_graph_mem_set_clock_for_testing), so tests move time instead of
  waiting.
- Worker budget: application_worker_memory_slice_locked hands index workers
  the aggregate minus the resident layer bytes (cbm_graph_mem_cached_bytes),
  at least one byte per active job so a slice never reads as "no cap".
- Memory class: layers are charged to the new CBM_MEM_CLASS_GRAPH_CACHE
  ("graph_cache" in census and class logs) instead of STORE.

Responses stay byte-identical to the baseline on django and redis (tools
and Cypher) and on the kernel trace/hub and extra BFS/degree cases.

Martin Vogel 859294561a feat(index): the documentation pass follows the index mode by default
Doc-section -> code candidates (doc_link_candidates, #2574/#2610) are the
documentation-in-the-graph feature of this release. They now run by
default for full indexes and not for moderate or fast ones; an explicit
`doc_candidates` argument, or a `doc_candidates` setting the user set,
overrides the default either way in every mode.

- pipeline: the switch is unset/on/off; unset means on only when the
  effective mode is full.
- MCP: forwards only an explicit choice (argument, then a user-set config
  value) to daemon jobs and workers; daemon auto-index and watcher/UI jobs
  now carry a user-set value too (their workers have no config, so
  `doc_candidates false` was ignored there).
- fast + doc_candidates on runs the semantic pass's corpus phases and the
  doc phase only: candidates, and still no SIMILAR_TO or
  SEMANTICALLY_RELATED edges.
- config: `doc_candidates` joins the config key table (default `auto`);
  `config set doc_candidates ...` was refused as an unknown key before.
  README, docs/CONFIGURATION.md and the MCP schema describe the default.

Proof (macOS arm64, django fb11376):
  full 11,304 rows · moderate 0 · fast 0 · full+off 0 · moderate+on 1 ·
  fast+on 1 (moderate/fast discovery skips docs/) -- nodes and edges are
  identical between on and off in every mode; fast+on adds 0 semantic
  edges.
- New tests (RED on the old code): pipeline
  pipeline_doc_candidates_default_follows_mode,
  pipeline_doc_candidates_explicit_wins_over_mode,
  pipeline_doc_candidates_fast_on_legacy_incremental; mcp

  daemon_application_programmatic_index_forwards_set_doc_candidates.
- mcp 374 passed (4 Windows-only skips), daemon_application 73 passed,

  green on the release tree.

Martin Vogel 6bda6e26de fix(watcher): report a tree-polled non-git root as strategy "tree"
Since #1948 a non-git root can be polled by a file-tree scan when
watch_non_git is on. index_status still reported such a root as
strategy "none", which the enum documents as "not a git project: never
polled", so a root that is actively polled looked unwatched.

publish_status now maps a tree-polled root to the new
CBM_WATCHER_STRATEGY_TREE, rendered as "tree" (the value the
watcher.baseline log already uses). "none" keeps its meaning: a
registered non-git root that is never polled. CONFIGURATION.md lists
the four values.

Test: daemon_application_index_status_reports_tree_strategy_issue2167
fails without the production change and passes with it; suites
daemon_application, watcher and mcp: 507 passed, 4 platform skips.

Martin Vogel 3794085492 fix(watcher): show watch state in index_status, correct auto-sync docs (#2167)
The background watcher only watches the project an open MCP session is
rooted in, and drops the watch when the last session for that project
closes. A repository indexed with `cli index_repository` (or from a
session rooted elsewhere) is never watched, but README promised
"Auto-sync keeps it fresh after that" for every index_repository target
and the MCP instructions said "Indexes auto-refresh". Nothing in the
status output said which projects were actually watched, so a stale
CLI-indexed repo looked like a watcher bug.

What gets watched is unchanged. Instead:

- index_status gains a `watch` object: `watched`, plus `strategy`,
  `poll_interval_ms` and `last_scan_at` when watched, or a `reason`
  (not_session_project, cli_session, auto_watch_off, watcher_disabled,
  not_registered, no_watcher) and a re-index hint when not. It does not
  touch the #1561 `freshness` key.
- The watcher publishes per-project strategy, cadence and last completed
  scan time through atomics and exposes them via
  cbm_watcher_project_info(); the daemon answers index_status through a
  session-scoped provider.
- README, docs/CONFIGURATION.md, docs/index.html, the index_status tool
  description and the MCP instructions now state the real scope.

`watcher_enabled` already shows in `config list` since v0.11.0 (680bc72e).

fix(index): report clean worker exits without a response
2026-10-04 16:23:27 +02:00
Martin Vogel 7acb5eac83 fix(index): name a worker that exits cleanly without a response (#1300)
The supervisor creates the worker's response file before spawning it. A
worker that exited 0 without writing that file left it empty, and
slurp_worker_response read the empty file as "" with status OK. The run
then counted as a SUCCESS with an empty response (the daemon marked the
job successful). The clean-exit branch of worker_terminal_log also
deleted the worker log, the only record of where the run stopped. Only
an oversized response was treated as a failure.

- index_supervisor: an empty response file is WORKER_RESPONSE_READ_EMPTY.
  A clean exit with no readable response sets response_missing, keeps the
  worker log, records its path, and records the last structured event
  the log holds (text or JSON format, last 64 KiB) as last_phase. It is
  logged as index.supervisor.no_response with the log path and the last
  phase. The outcome stays CLEAN, so the disposition is FALLBACK: an
  explicit error, with no in-process fallback and no recovery re-run of a
  worker that did not crash.
- mcp: cbm_mcp_index_worker_no_response_failure builds the error
  (reason "no_response", last_phase, worker_log, hint). It is used for
  the first attempt and for a recovery run.
- daemon application: the job failure message says the worker exited
  cleanly without writing a response, and gives the last phase and the
  log to inspect.
- pipeline_incremental: the legacy per-file purge loop now logs
  incremental.purge.start (changed/deleted counts) and
  incremental.purge.progress. Progress lines carry counts only, use a
  ceiling stride (at most ~20 lines plus the final one) and never log one
  line per file. Before this, nothing was logged between
  incremental.edge_snapshot and incremental.purge.

Tests (RED before, green after, RED on revert):
- index_supervisor_clean_exit_without_response_is_named_failure_issue1300
  (a real worker subprocess logs a phase and exits 0 without a response)
- daemon_application_clean_exit_without_response_is_named_failure_issue1300
- incr_purge_reports_bounded_progress_issue1300
- index_supervisor_clean_exit_without_response_response_issue1300 (the
  contract of the response builder)

Martin Vogel 28b41c35b7 feat(mcp): opt-in async index_repository with status polling (#2144)
index_repository blocks until the whole index completes. MCP clients with
a per-call deadline (Copilot for IntelliJ) give up on a large repository;
their cancel drops the daemon job's last subscriber, the daemon cancels
the worker, and every retry starts over, so the index never finishes.

Add an opt-in async mode and a status query to the same tool; the default
synchronous behaviour is unchanged:

- async: true starts the project's index job in the daemon, or joins the
  one already running for it, and returns at once with its state. The
  application holds one subscriber reference for an async job until its
  terminal publish, so the request returning, the client cancelling or
  the starting session closing no longer cancels it. Only daemon shutdown
  (or the final session of a non-permanent generation) ends it. Async
  requests never queue behind the physical job limit; a full daemon
  answers busy. async/status are stripped from the worker args, so an
  async request coalesces with an identical synchronous one.
- status: true reports the running or last job for the project
  (queued/running/cancelling/succeeded/failed/cancelled, started_at,
  finished_at, error summary) from a small per-project record kept in the
  daemon's job registry after the job itself is reaped. An unknown
  project is an error; a project indexed before this daemon generation
  reports idle. No freshness key is added: index_status keeps the #1561
  freshness object.
- async + status together, non-boolean values, and async with
  cross-repo-intelligence are refused. In-process servers (index worker,
  embedders) refuse both modes: nothing there outlives the call.
- On a temporary (non-permanent) daemon, async is refused when the
  request arrives on the one-shot `cli` tool channel and that session is
  the daemon's only live session: the daemon would stop and cancel the
  job the moment the command exits. The error points at `daemon start`
  (or an open MCP session). A long-lived MCP session stays a valid host
  even when it is the only one, which is the IDE case this exists for;
  status stays allowed everywhere. The daemon lifecycle is unchanged.
- New allocations go through the memory core (cbm_alloc/cbm_calloc/
  cbm_mem_strdup/cbm_free); blocks returned by non-core APIs are released
  with safe_free, so no file's raw allocator count grows.
- A cut-short synchronous call now offers the async alternative: in the
  cancellation text the daemon or frontend delivers (including the
  -32800 reply to a cancelled index_repository), and, because a timed-out
  client never reads that reply, as a notice on the next index_repository
  or status call for the project.
- The tool description and schema, the CLI help and the README explain
  the flags, the deadline problem and the polling pattern.

No server-side timeout or budget is introduced.

Tests (deterministic, held fake worker, bounded observation waits):
async returns before completion and status observes running then
succeeded; an async job survives its session closing while a sync job in
the same shape is still cancelled; validation errors; the cancellation
reply and the next-call notice carry the advice; a lone one-shot client
of a temporary daemon is refused async while status and an MCP session
on the same daemon are allowed; in-process refusal; schema; notice
helper.

刘冲 21ae02154a feat(index): add opt-in discovery resource limits
Indexing accepts whatever a repository contains. A tree carrying a vendored
monorepo, a generated dump, or a runaway build directory is discovered in
full, and the first sign of trouble is a host under memory pressure with
nothing that attributes it to indexing.

Add two opt-in limits evaluated during discovery against accepted source
files only: index_max_files and index_max_source_mb. Both default to off, so
nothing changes until an operator sets one. Crossing a limit fails the whole
attempt with a structured resource_limit_exceeded result naming the resource,
the observed value and the limit; no partial graph is published, and an
existing serving index keeps answering.

Limits are read from the CLI-managed _config.db and are not MCP request
arguments. A supervised parent replaces any caller-supplied policy before
spawning its worker, and the worker rejects a missing or incomplete contract,
so the CLI, the daemon and the supervised worker all enforce the same
decision.

Both keys reach an operator through the existing config get/set/list/reset
with no new subcommand. `set` suppresses its own generic message for them
because the policy writer names the precise reason -- so that writer speaks
on every failure it can return, including a validated value whose write then
fails on a database that cannot be written. Exiting non-zero in silence is
not an acceptable answer from a CLI.

The two shell regressions that hand-roll the supervisor's worker argv carry
that contract as well. Without it the worker exits before either guard can
observe anything, and the guard would go quietly vacuous.

TheStranjer 8622d6a0ed fix(cli): make following user-owned symlinks an opt-in per call site
Review of the previous head found the global rule unsound for one caller:
cbm_mkdir_p also creates <repo_path>/.codebase-memory inside the checkout
being indexed, and git creates symlinks owned by whoever cloned, so a
repository shipping `.codebase-memory -> ~/.ssh` would have been followed
by the artifact writer. "User-owned" says nothing about "user-intended"
once the path root is a checkout.

cbm_mkdir_p keeps the strict walk (root-owned links only). The new
cbm_mkdir_p_ex(path, mode, policy) with CBM_MKDIR_FOLLOW_OWNED also
follows a symlink owned by the invoking user, and only callers whose
paths are rooted in the user's own configuration opt in: the installer's
agent roots, skills, instruction files and hook directories, the
JSON-like config editor's parent creation, the cache root, <cache>/logs,
the UI config directory and the DB parent. The artifact directory inside
the checkout and the ~/.local/bin creations stay strict; the activation
transaction re-walks the latter with its own no-follow policy anyway.

What a follow lands on is now checked too: the opened target must be a
directory owned by root or the invoking user and not world-writable
unless sticky, so a link swapped between the fstatat and the openat
cannot steer the walk into a directory an attacker controls or one where
anyone can pre-plant entries. This applies to root-owned links as well;
macOS /private/tmp is root-owned and sticky and still passes. Refusal
restores the first openat's errno.

Tests: the plain walk refuses an own link that the opted-in walk
follows; targets that are world-writable without the sticky bit are
refused; as root, a foreign-owned target and a user-owned link are both
refused, each followed by restoring ownership and walking again; the
identical `.codebase-memory -> <user-owned dir>` link is refused by the
plain walk and followed once opted in; cbm_artifact_export refuses a
checked-in artifact-dir link and leaves its target empty; the installer
test gains the euid-0 leg with home, link and target owned by a non-root
uid. Under euid 0 the tests demote their links to a non-root owner, since
root-owned links are trusted by both walks.

Martin VogelandClaude Fable 5.1 21591d5116 fix(daemon): slice the worker memory budget by active jobs, not by the job limit
The daemon handed every index worker aggregate/physical_job_limit (a
fixed quarter by default) regardless of how many jobs were running, so a
lone worker on a host like #1864 was capped at a quarter of the memory
the daemon itself was allowed — and with the budget now failing whole
(decision A) that fixed slice would have turned an idle host into a
guaranteed over_memory_budget. Decision 2 (#1997, #832): the slice is
decided at spawn time as aggregate / jobs active right then (the job
being spawned included), so a lone worker may use the whole aggregate
and concurrent jobs split it. The explicit CBM_MEM_BUDGET_MB override
keeps its precedence inside the worker (bf46b91f); the sub-byte-per-slot
guard is unchanged. The spawn line logs project, active_jobs,
aggregate_mb and slice_mb so a fail-whole verdict can be read against
the budget the worker really had.

Tests: sequenced admission proves first=aggregate, second=aggregate/2;
the racing 4-way admission test accepts any aggregate/1..4 slice (the
divisor is scheduling-dependent there); a scripted CLEAN worker
returning the over_memory_budget error response is passed through
verbatim on the first attempt — no recovery loop, no quarantine.

Martin Vogel 9846c3f171 fix(daemon): compare session roots separator-equivalently without respelling the policy root
The first cut on this branch (c1b9c451) respelled the session root and
the allowed root with forward slashes on the way into the session policy
(cbm_mcp_server_set_session_context) and at the three application.c sites
that canonicalize a root. CI's Windows shard then failed two tests:

  tests/test_daemon_application.c:2256: ASSERT(sensitive_blocked)
  tests/test_daemon_application.c:2380: ASSERT(sensitive_blocked)

Both set HOME to the cbm_canonical_path spelling of a directory - the
platform's native form, backslashes on Windows - and expect a session
rooted there to be refused for auto-index and for watch. The sensitive-root
and allowed-root containment walk (ws_is_ancestor_or_equal in
src/foundation/workspace.c) compares prefixes byte-exact, so a root that
now read C:/Users/... no longer matched a HOME of C:\Users\...: the
sensitive refusal was lost and $HOME was admitted. Respelling the policy
root was the wrong layer.

This commit keeps the policy roots in their canonical native spelling
(mcp.c and the three application.c sites are back to what main runs) and
folds the separator spelling at the one comparison the original defect
lives in: application_index_args_equal, where the running job's args are
compared with an explicit index_repository request's. The auto-index job
spells repo_path the way the session policy holds it; the handler spells
it with forward slashes. On Windows the two never matched, and the request
was refused as OPTIONS_CONFLICT instead of joining the job already running
for its root. The fold acts on the parsed copies only (yyjson_mut_obj_replace
with a cbm_normalize_path_sep'd string), so nothing the daemon stores
changes spelling and every other option stays exact.

Why this is correct on Windows without a local Windows run: the policy
spelling is untouched, so the containment path is byte-for-byte what main
runs there today; cbm_normalize_path_sep folds backslashes on every
platform, so the new fold is exercised by the new test wherever the suite
runs.

Tests: daemon_session_context_keeps_one_spelling_of_a_root asserted that
the policy respells a root with forward slashes. That was the wrong
contract: the policy's containment checks compare its spelling byte-exact
against HOME and the granted roots, so a respelled root is exactly what
stops matching them. It is replaced by
daemon_session_context_keeps_the_policy_spelling_of_a_root, which binds
the opposite: the policy stores the root as given. The comparison is exposed through
application_internal.h as cbm_daemon_application_index_args_equal_for_test
and bound by daemon_application_index_args_compare_repo_path_separator_equivalently:
a backslash and a forward-slash repo_path compare equal; a different path,
a sub-path, and a different mode still do not.

Martin Vogeland刘冲 c1b9c451c7 fix(daemon): keep one separator spelling for the session root on Windows
On Windows cbm_canonical_path answers in the platform's native backslash
form, and the daemon stored that spelling verbatim for the client's
session_root and allowed_root (cbm_mcp_server_set_session_context) and for
the auto-index job's repo_path (application.c canonicalizes with the bare
call at three sites). Every tool handler, however, normalizes separators
after canonicalizing. One directory therefore had two names, and the exact
comparison in application_index_args_equal never matched: an explicit
index_repository request for the session root was refused as
OPTIONS_CONFLICT instead of joining the auto-index job already running for
it.

Normalize the separator spelling of both session roots in
set_session_context, and canonicalize plus normalize at the three
application.c sites through one helper, application_canonical_root().
Separators fold on every platform, so the new test
daemon_session_context_keeps_one_spelling_of_a_root binds wherever the
suite runs; it fails on main with "C:\repos\cbm" != "C:/repos/cbm".

Martin Vogel 5efa57492a fix(daemon): answer an oversized MCP reply with an error, not process death (#1375)
A single query_graph reply larger than one 10 MiB frame killed the MCP server:
exit code 1, no JSON-RPC error, nothing on stderr, no crash report. Under a host
that does not respawn the server, every tool from it was gone for the rest of
the session — the reporter lost their tooling mid-investigation to one dead-code
query and finished by driving the binary over stdio by hand.

Root cause is a conflation, not the limit itself. application_mcp_request
checked only response_length > UINT32_MAX and passed anything smaller on, so an
oversized reply reached the transport, which rejected the frame. The frontend
worker cannot tell that rejection from a dead socket, and for a dead socket it
deliberately _Exit()s the process — closing the kernel IPC handle is the only
portable way to cancel daemon session ownership from a thread blocked in stdio.
Correct for a broken transport; a fatal over-reaction to a large answer.

The substitution therefore has to happen in application_mcp_request, which is
the last layer still holding the request id. Replies that fit are returned
byte-identical; a reply that cannot be framed becomes a JSON-RPC -32603 naming
both numbers and what to do ("narrow the projection, add LIMIT, or paginate"),
because the failure it replaces was a silent exit and an opaque "internal error"
would be no improvement.

Reproduced first, on a locally generated 20k-node fixture rather than the
reporter's repo (external code stays unverified until reviewed):

  before   LIMIT 10000 -> ok, 8,529,990 bytes
           LIMIT 20000 -> SERVER DIED exit=1 stderr=''
  after    LIMIT 20000 -> JSON-RPC -32603, and a follow-up query on the SAME
           session succeeds — which is the property that actually matters

The decision and the substitution live in one function on purpose. The first
version of the test built the error object directly and PASSED with the size
check removed: it proved the error was well-formed while the server still died.
Testing application_framable_response instead binds the branch — verified by
removing the guard, which reddens it at ASSERT(replaced != big).

Not addressed here, deliberately: every reply still carries its payload twice
(content[0].text and structuredContent.text are verbatim duplicates, ~2.05x
measured), which is why the ceiling is reached at ~4 MB of real content. That is
a wire-format question affecting every tool and every caller's token bill, so it
belongs in its own change with a decision behind it, not smuggled into a crash
fix.

Martin Vogel 1f674c805e harden: remove capability that should never have shipped
Microsoft's ML flagged the rc.1 release binaries. The decisive evidence is that
the SAME sha256 went from 0/62 clean to Microsoft-detected in about an hour with
no byte change, so the verdict lives partly in scanner-side state and no code
change can promise a clean result. What code CAN do is stop shipping things that
have no business in a release artifact, which is worth doing on its own merits
and incidentally widens the classifier margin. Every claim below is verified
against a built binary by the new gate, not by reading source.

Executable stack (the worst of the findings). vendored/nomic/code_vectors_blob.S
is the only assembly in the build and carried no .note.GNU-stack. An unannotated
object makes ld assume the worst for the whole link, so EVERY Linux release we
have ever shipped had GNU_STACK RWE. Adds the note (cause) plus ELF-only
-Wl,-z,noexecstack (outcome); the gate fails the release if it returns.

Test seams are now opt-in, never opt-out. TEST_SEAMS=1 defines
CBM_ENABLE_TEST_SEAMS; without it the crash-orphan probe -- which forks a child
that ignores SIGTERM and loops forever, then writes its pid to a caller-supplied
path -- and the lease-ownership marker compile to trivial stubs, so call sites are
untouched and the binary holds no fork, no signal handler and no env-var string.
Opt-IN is the point: forgetting the flag yields a clean binary rather than a leaky
one. scripts/test.sh requests it in the leg that consumes it, and
tests/test_worker_watchdog.sh now asserts the capability up front instead of
dying later with an opaque "Killed: 9".

The daemon's background version check is gone. It spawned curl against
api.github.com/repos/.../releases/latest on the first eligible session of every
run to say "a newer version exists" -- a release URL and an outbound request in
every shipped binary, for something the install scripts already report. The
INJECTABLE SEAM survives: update_ops is still honoured, the fakes in
tests/test_daemon_application.c still cover notice/ownership/cancellation/replay,
and with no provider application_update_subscribe_locked returns early so no
generation ever starts. "No network request by default" is now structural.

Dead capability out of release builds. The tar.gz/zip extraction block
(gzip_decompress through cbm_extract_binary_from_zip, plus its cli.h
declarations) moves under CBM_CLI_ENABLE_TEST_API -- verified self-contained, zero
uses of any helper outside it, only callers the excluded updater and
tests/test_cli.c. Downloading an archive, decompressing it, picking an executable
out of it and marking it executable is the canonical dropper composite; it is now
absent rather than merely unreachable. SQLite is built with
-DSQLITE_OMIT_LOAD_EXTENSION (no caller of load_extension anywhere in src/ or
internal/), removing that API surface and part of the dlopen/dlsym surface.

Temp files and environment scanning (S2/S3). Predictable paths in mcp.c,
artifact.c and diagnostics.c are created privately and exclusively and written
through the returned descriptor; pass_envscan.c no longer descends symlinked
directories out of the project root, and its fixed 512-byte path buffers no
longer truncate into pointer arithmetic that could land outside the buffer.

Build-time entropy. mimalloc's version banner baked __DATE__/__TIME__ into every
binary, so two builds of identical source seconds apart could never share a hash
and no release could inherit a false-positive determination made about its
predecessor. Local patch removes it (marked to survive refreshes), -Wdate-time
makes any future use a build error, and -Wl,--no-insert-timestamp stops the PE
header carrying the link clock.

scripts/ci/check-binary-composition.sh is the proof that each removal stays
removed, wired into package-release.sh after strip so the local artifact-flow
smoke enforces exactly what CI does. It asserts absences plus a CANARY string, so
handing it a compressed, stubbed or empty file fails instead of passing
vacuously, and a missing tool is a hard error -- a skipped assertion must never
look like a satisfied one.

Two build-system traps found by that gate, both of which had silently defeated a
fix: the product binary is compiled in one shot from sources, so a flag flip did
not rebuild it (now tracked by a .build-config stamp that also removes the
binary, making it independent of mtime granularity); and prod_sqlite3.o /
prod_mimalloc.o depended on a single named source, so SQLITE_OMIT_LOAD_EXTENSION
and the mimalloc patch BOTH compiled to nothing on the first incremental build.
Source review would have called them done.

Deliberately NOT changed. Three seams stay in release artifacts because
scripts/smoke-test.sh runs against the real artifact and needs them:
CBM_TEST_CRASH_ON and CBM_TEST_HANG_ON inject the faults that prove supervisor
recovery, and CBM_TEST_WINDOWS_USER_PATH_RUN_ID is what keeps the PATH smoke from
writing the tester's actual PATH. The gate treats those as an allowlist, so a
NOVEL seam still fails. The true no-UI standard build is deferred rather than
rushed: src/ui/* is in PROD_SRCS and four files outside src/ui reference UI
symbols, including the daemon that serves the UI, so that assertion reports
instead of failing until the split lands -- a gate everyone knows is red teaches
people to ignore gates.

No grammar is removed. ObjectScript accounts for essentially all binary growth
since the last provably-clean release (+21.4MB rodata, +1.1MB text from two
four-line shims), which made it the obvious ablation candidate, but a dry run
performed twelve real Defender endpoint scans across standard/UI and amd64/arm64
with ObjectScript, the daemon and the expanded hooks all present and every scan
was clean. Nothing there is a deterministic trigger, so cutting a
community-contributed language would spend a real feature on unproven margin.
Lean is not a candidate either: at 99.6MB of source it is by far the largest
grammar, but it shipped in v0.9.0 which scanned 20/20 clean, so removing it would
produce a novel unscanned profile instead of restoring a known-good one.

Martin Vogel 87f7c0d784 daemon: deterministic job interleavings and queued explicit index admission
Two changes to the index coordinator, developed together and validated as
one state:

Determinism seams. A cancel racing a worker start was only observable on a
loaded runner; now the interleaving is forced by construction: a test hold
parks every job thread before its first pre-start cancel check, and a
background-initialize completion counter turns sleep-then-assert negatives
into positive-signal waits. The cancel-before-worker-start case is pinned
by a dedicated test; three auto-index admission tests now wait for the
admission tail instead of sleeping through it.

Queued admission. An explicit index_repository request that hits the
physical job limit used to surface a raw busy error. The request thread
already blocks for the whole index, so it now queues: a cancellable,
shutdown-aware wait-and-resubscribe loop replaces the error path, with a
wait counter as the parked-state observable. The programmatic coordinator
API keeps its non-blocking busy answer for callers with their own retry
policy (watcher, auto-index). The job-limit test asserts the new contract:
parked without a second worker start, admitted and completed once the
occupying job finishes.

Martin Vogel 0baddf7887 daemon: permanent lifecycle, daemon-backed CLI/hooks, real-Windows hardening, long-path launcher transactions
Daemon lifecycle and Windows correctness, verified on a real Windows 11
ARM64 VM through the maintained test-infrastructure/vm drivers, plus the
macOS and Linux arm64 suites and the container lint gate.

Daemon lifecycle:

- daemon start/stop/status subcommands. `daemon start` launches a
  PERMANENT daemon (spawn shape is byte-exact argv; survives idle
  periods and session ends) and reports an already-active daemon
  instead of failing. Permanence is honored at every stop latch:
  last-committed-client disconnect, host initial-client window,
  coordinator release, and application final-session close — a
  permanent daemon also keeps admitting new sessions after its last
  one closes.
- daemon stop refuses while sessions are active and lists the blocking
  peers (pid/role) that must finish first; an idle daemon drains
  through the activation-shutdown machinery with the ACK ordered after
  connection interrupts. A second stop is idempotent. The wire ops are
  no-cohort first-frame requests with peer fingerprint authentication,
  so stop/status never conflict with an exact-build admission gate.
- One-shot CLI commands now execute through the daemon (index workers
  keep their local supervised path). A cold CLI run that had to spawn a
  temporary daemon prints a hint that `daemon start` removes the
  per-command startup tax; a warm daemon is recycled silently.
- Hooks are connect-only fail-open: with no daemon present the hook
  emits a visible, rate-limited notice (Claude-dialect systemMessage
  plus stderr for other dialects) and always exits 0 — augmentation is
  never allowed to block the caller's tool use.
- Version skew: a newer-build client automatically drains an
  older-build permanent daemon (strict semantic-version triples only;
  dev builds never auto-drain) and the build-conflict message names
  `cbm daemon stop` as the manual escape hatch.

Windows IPC/runtime (real-VM verified):

- ipc(win): persistent pending overlapped ConnectNamedPipe. The accept
  path used to destroy its listening pipe instance on every 20 ms poll
  timeout; a client attaching in the teardown window was severed or left
  on an orphaned pipe object whose HELLO no server handle could ever
  read, absorbing the connect until the client's own timeout expired.
  The pending connect now survives poll timeouts and nothing is
  destroyed while a client could be attaching.
- ipc(win): drain-before-close for final responses. Closing a named-pipe
  server handle can discard a just-sent response before the peer reads
  it (POSIX stream sockets never lose buffered data on close). A bounded
  cbm_daemon_ipc_connection_drain (read-until-peer-EOF; no-op on POSIX,
  immediate on interrupted connections) now precedes close in
  runtime_worker_finish and runtime_reject_inline, so hello-conflict,
  capacity and disconnect acknowledgements reliably reach the peer.
- runtime: CLOSE_INTENT wire frame. A Windows named-pipe client has no
  transport half-close, so close_begin now announces departure with an
  explicit frame (ordered after APPLICATION_CANCEL, before the local
  interrupt); the server releases the client's admission on receipt
  instead of waiting for the handle to close. Admission-drop timing is
  now identical to POSIX shutdown() semantics on every platform.
- runtime(win): client close cancellation. close_begin serializes with
  request publication under the send lock, best-effort sends the active
  token's APPLICATION_CANCEL frame, then interrupts local I/O; the
  server cancels MCP/subprocess work promptly. Contract tests accept
  both correct outcomes (interrupted transport or decoded CANCELLED).
- runtime: activation acknowledgement ordering. The activation ACK is
  the requester's license to act on "snapshotted and draining", so every
  connection interrupt is now initiated before the ACK is sent; a
  session could previously get one more request serviced after the
  requester observed the ACK.
- service(win): deadline-bounded private-file prepare. The conflict-log
  prepare retry loop (100 x Sleep(2), which rounds up to the ~16 ms
  timer granularity) burned ~1.6 s against permanently obstructed paths,
  stalling hello rejections past the client's timeout. The retry budget
  is now a 250 ms deadline; transient share collisions still retry.
- subprocess(win): cmd.exe /C payload encoder quotes metacharacters
  correctly (root cause of the git-on-Windows failure cluster).
- watcher: SHA-256 buffer sizing (CBM_SZ_64 -> CBM_SZ_128) and a native
  Windows stop/unwatch cancellation test with exact-image verification.
- httpd: send_all writes in bounded 64 KiB slices. A single giant
  nonblocking send() on Windows is absorbed wholesale into AFD kernel
  buffering regardless of SO_SNDBUF, so send deadlines and interrupts
  could never engage against a slow peer (and the full payload was
  pinned in nonpaged pool). Slicing restores a deterministic
  backpressure point; a test hook pins SO_SNDBUF for the deadline and
  interrupt tests.
- ui/http: shutdown lifecycle — interrupt checks, response-wide send
  deadline, explicit connection states, refusal to free a server while
  a listener-owned connection is active.

Windows long-path support:

- Central path-aware wide conversion (canonicalize via GetFullPathNameW
  and prepend the extended-length prefix for absolute paths >=240) at
  the compat chokepoints (cbm_fopen/compat_fs/mkstemp/mkdtemp), sqlite
  store opens, and the daemon build-fingerprint/log paths. Deep managed
  installs (a 64-hex generation directory routinely exceeds MAX_PATH)
  now index, stage and activate correctly.
- activation transaction: its own file APIs and the component-walking
  ancestry validators now operate in the extended-length namespace;
  the launcher path is canonicalized (and prefixed when deep) once at
  entry so every downstream exact-string comparison stays
  form-consistent.
- Executable self-resolution uses the wide APIs (GetModuleFileNameW,
  GetFileAttributesW) so non-ASCII install paths survive argv[0]
  resolution.

Windows launcher install/uninstall transaction:

- FileRenameInfoEx names are NUL-terminated in an over-allocated
  buffer. FileNameLength governs per the contract, but filter drivers
  read FileName as NUL-terminated and appended adjacent heap bytes to
  created names — a flaky, garbage-suffixed rename target. Both the CLI
  and the launcher rename helpers are fixed.
- Uninstall retires state via rename-aside (.cbm ->
  .cbm-retired-v1-<tag>-<pid>) with the retired tag shortened to 16 hex
  chars so the bare rename target stays under the FileRenameInfoEx
  NT-conversion ceiling at guard depths; 64 bits still uniquely
  identify the generation.
- When the running launcher's mapped generation backings pin .cbm
  against rename, the backings are relocated to activation-<pid>-N
  .retired tombstones beside the install (a mapped image may be renamed,
  never deleted; the launcher's liveness-guarded sweep reclaims stale
  tombstones). Every relocation is recorded, and a FAILED uninstall
  reverses the moves after restoring .cbm — via MoveFileExW with
  extended-length paths on both arguments, since the deep generation
  target is beyond the handle-based rename's bare-path reach — so a
  restored install keeps its generation backings and stays runnable.
- After a committed uninstall the retired tree's backings are relocated
  out so the tree is shallow enough for the detached cleanup's rd, and
  the cleanup's working directory strips the extended-length prefix
  (CreateProcessW lpCurrentDirectory silently ignores prefixed paths).
- Files created under Administrators-default-owner directories
  (CopyFileW destinations, CREATE_NEW tombstones, probe directories)
  are explicitly owner-stamped so the exact-owner validators hold on
  runner images; guard fixtures stamp hand-built trees the same way.

Diagnostics, tests and infra:

- diagnostics: discovery is now an always-delivered JSON control record
  (new cbm_log_control) that survives CBM_LOG_LEVEL suppression and
  paths containing spaces; placement honors $TMPDIR with /tmp fallback
  via a diagnostics-local helper; the soak parser reads the JSON record;
  documented in docs/CONFIGURATION.md. Red-first coverage for suppressed
  log levels, TMPDIR-with-spaces, and native Windows output-contract
  assertions.
- tests(win): daemon_ipc/daemon_frontend fixtures now build endpoint
  parents with production-shaped ancestry (LocalAppData on Windows, via
  th_secure_runtime_parent_new) — the runtime ancestry validation
  correctly refuses temp roots whose ancestors grant mutation rights to
  Authenticated Users (C:/msys64/tmp, GitHub-runner work dirs) — and
  drive the documented startup-owner publication flow before reading
  generation-bound endpoint addresses. This turns the 26 Windows
  failures previously visible in CI's full-test job green without
  weakening any validation.
- tests(win): the launcher guard covers the full permanent-launcher
  contract including failed-uninstall restore and immediate reinstall
  after uninstall; new daemon lifecycle and reworked hook-augment
  guards run the start/recycle/stop flow end to end.
- tests: CBM_SKIP_PERF is now actually consumed by the test runner
  (it was set by CI but never read, so perf suites ran everywhere);
  four throughput/bench suites are classified as perf, the heavy
  store_arch suite moved to the slow-timeout tier, and two
  wall-clock-sensitive assertions were rewritten as invariant checks
  with coarse hang-detector backstops.
- build/test infra: build-dir safety contract, UI dev-proxy security
  contract, soak daemon-recovery contract, path-safety helper, the
  Windows VM worktree-sync contract wired into scripts/test.sh, and
  vm/win.sh guards building its clean embedded-UI product in an
  isolated BUILD_DIR so it cannot clobber the incremental test build.
  provision-windows.sh now installs Node.js for the guards UI build.
