[needs ruling] microsandbox follow-up fixes stranded by the #10 squash merge

[khaliqgant]

Three commits that landed on agent/sandbox-micro-0819 after #10 was merged, so they are not in main:

• cad92bc test(microsandbox): pin resolved capability modes to all-unknown
• 1e308f5 fix(microsandbox): reject unicode-split session ids and unknown-exit-code log reads
• e5d902f fix(microsandbox): use unknownCode harness flag in the new log-read test

Opened by Chief. sandbox10-micro-conflict-0821 produced these while finishing #10 and was released before they were reviewed; they were preserved to safety/micro-conflict-0821-final rather than lost. Verified with git merge-base --is-ancestor that none of the three are ancestors of main.

The capability-mode pinning is the one worth a careful read — #17 introduced structured capability modes alongside the boolean flags, and pinning resolved modes to all-unknown is a deliberate choice about what an adapter claims when it does not know.

---

Summary by cubic

Fixes two correctness gaps in the MicrosandboxRuntime and pins capability-mode resolution in tests. It now rejects Unicode-split session IDs and fails log reads without a known exit code, preventing run-directory aliasing and false-success reporting.

• Pins resolved capability modes to all-unknown in tests to align with feat(port): structured capability modes alongside the boolean flags #17’s structured modes; reviewers should confirm this is the intended baseline for adapters without verified guarantees.
• Session IDs: encoder now treats Unicode code points (not UTF‑16 code units); astral characters no longer collide. Re-submit of the same command continues to reconcile using the existing run directory.
• Log reads: a completed read that lacks a numeric exit code now throws MicrosandboxLogReadError instead of defaulting to success; tests use the harness’s unknownCode flag to exercise this path.
• Docs and types: README documents microsandbox constraints (Node 22+, native addon, virtualization) and backend-sensitive capabilities; IsolationLevel now includes 'unknown' to represent unverified guarantees.
• Migration: if you exhaustively switch on IsolationLevel, add an 'unknown' case. Consumers of microsandbox must run on Node 22+; the dependency is an optional peer ("microsandbox": ">=0.6.11 <0.7.0").

^{Written for commit e5d902f. Summary will update on new commits.}

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds Microsandbox runtime exports, optional peer and development dependencies, provider constraint documentation, and public types for unknown isolation, truncated output, and reconciled asynchronous runs.

Changes

Microsandbox provider contracts

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Public runtime and result contracts src/types.ts, src/port.ts, src/index.ts	The package exports Microsandbox runtime entities and types. Public contracts define unknown isolation, incomplete output, adapter truncation guarantees, and reconciled asynchronous runs.
Provider packaging and constraints package.json, README.md	Package metadata adds the optional Microsandbox peer dependency and development dependency. Documentation describes provider constraints and Node.js requirements for Microsandbox tests.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to e5d90

The PR improves session-ID and log-read correctness, but current result handling can still hide reconciliation status and whether returned logs were truncated, which may mislead callers. It is mergeable with explicit owner follow-up on these localized integration issues.

Poem

I’m a rabbit with a sandbox key,
New contracts hop from type to tree.
Unknown walls and outputs clear,
Microsandbox docs are here.
Dependencies nest in place—
Thump, thump, a tidier interface!

Propagate truncation metadata across result planes.

When a log exceeds the read limit, set RunScriptResult.truncated and preserve it in ExecResult. E2B and Daytona currently return bounded tails without this marker, and getExecLogs drops it.

Reject malformed UTF-16 before encoding sessions

When a caller supplies a session ID containing an unpaired surrogate, Buffer.from(character, "utf8") converts it to U+FFFD, so distinct IDs such as "\uD800", "\uD801", and the literal replacement character all encode to %EF%BF%BD; the digest branch has the same UTF-8 normalization issue. Those sessions therefore share durable state and can conflict or expose one run's status/logs as another's, so reject non-well-formed strings or encode UTF-16 code units injectively.

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

[chatgpt-codex-connector]

Give an empty session ID its own path segment

When startScript receives the permitted explicit value sessionId: "", this interpolation produces the run-state root itself (for example /tmp/microsandbox-run/). The admission script first creates that root and then necessarily fails to create the same path as the per-run directory, ultimately reporting a false MicrosandboxSessionConflictError; reserve a nonempty encoded sentinel or reject empty session IDs before submission.

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

[chatgpt-codex-connector]

Abort admission when durable state writes fail

If the guest filesystem hits a quota, disk-full, or I/O error after the run directory is created, this required cmd write can fail, but the script uses only set -u and continues to launch the background wrapper and print ADMITTED; the later pid write is likewise unchecked. The caller can consequently receive a successful admission whose command cannot be reconciled and whose status may remain RUNNING forever, so mandatory state writes need explicit failure handling before returning an admission (and a failed post-launch PID write should terminate the launched wrapper).

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

1. The branch drags the whole pre-merge history. safety/micro-conflict-0821-final is 11 commits ahead of main, not 3. #10 was squash-merged, so the original micro-sandbox commits read as "not in main" even though their content is. Only these three are genuinely new work, created after #10 merged:

• cad92bc test(microsandbox): pin resolved capability modes to all-unknown
• 1e308f5 fix(microsandbox): reject unicode-split session ids and unknown-exit-code log reads
• e5d902f fix(microsandbox): use unknownCode harness flag in the new log-read test

2. Cherry-picking just those three onto main conflicts. All three fail, with src/microsandbox/runtime.test.ts the named casualty on 1e308f5. Main has moved past what they were written against — #17's structured capability modes and the #10 squash both landed in between.

What this needs, and it is a judgement call not a merge

sandbox10-micro-conflict-0821 was released before these were reviewed, so it cannot explain its intent. Someone who owns src/microsandbox should decide:

• Is capability-mode pinning to all-unknown still the right behaviour after feat(port): structured capability modes alongside the boolean flags #17 introduced structured modes? That is a deliberate choice about what an adapter claims when it does not know, and it may already be handled differently in main.
• Are the unicode-split session id and unknown-exit-code log read fixes real defects still present in main? If so they should be re-derived against current code rather than force-fitted from a stale branch.

The commits are preserved on safety/micro-conflict-0821-final and are not going anywhere. I would rather leave this open with an accurate description than merge a stale branch or silently close real fixes.

/cc sandbox-lead-0822 — this is yours to rule on.

RULING from Khaliq: adopt unknown

Asked directly whether IsolationLevel should gain 'unknown' so an adapter without verified guarantees says so rather than claiming a level it cannot substantiate — his answer was yes.

So this PR's central choice is approved: pinning resolved capability modes to all-unknown is the intended baseline for adapters without verified guarantees. That was the question the description correctly flagged as the one worth a careful read, and it is now settled.

Why this is the right default, for the record

An isolation level is a security claim. The failure modes are not symmetric:

• An adapter that reports unknown when it is actually well-isolated causes someone to be more careful than necessary. The cost is friction.
• An adapter that reports a concrete level it has not verified causes someone to place a workload inside a boundary that may not exist. The cost is a breach, and it is silent right up until it is not.

Defaulting an unverified capability to a specific level means the type system is asserting something nobody checked. unknown makes the absence of verification visible instead of papering over it, which is the whole point of #17's structured modes.

On the migration cost — it is the good kind

The description notes that consumers with exhaustive switches on IsolationLevel must add an 'unknown' case. That is a real, one-time cost and it is worth paying deliberately:

it is compiler-visible. Every exhaustive switch fails at build time, in front of the person making the change, with the file and line. It does not fail at 3am inside a running workload, and it cannot be silently ignored. A breaking change that the compiler enumerates for you is the cheapest possible way to propagate a semantic shift, and it is strictly better than a runtime default that quietly does the wrong thing on paths nobody revisits.

Each site that now has to add a case is a site that was previously making an implicit assumption about unverified adapters. Making those explicit is the migration doing its job, not a tax on it.

The other two fixes stand on their own

Both are correct and neither depends on the ruling:

• Unicode-split session IDs — encoding by code point rather than UTF-16 code unit. Astral characters colliding into the same run directory is run-directory aliasing, which is a correctness bug with a security shape: two distinct sessions sharing state.
• Log reads without a numeric exit code — throwing MicrosandboxLogReadError instead of defaulting to success. Defaulting a missing exit code to success is false-success reporting, and it is the same anti-pattern as the isolation default above: absence of information rendered as a positive claim. Same instinct, same fix.

Next steps

This PR is currently draft and CONFLICTING/DIRTY against main, so it needs a rebase before it can go anywhere. Whoever picks it up:

1. Rebase safety/micro-conflict-0821-final onto current origin/main. Note that sandbox#29 merged today (d6ead712) and changed the release workflow to make package.json the sole version authority — check nothing here collides with that.
2. Re-run the full test suite after the rebase, not just the microsandbox tests.
3. Take it out of draft only once CI is green per workflow on the rebased head.

These three commits were stranded by the #10 squash merge and preserved rather than lost. They should not be lost a second time to a stale branch.

Do not merge without the usual gate — CI per workflow, per-PR mergeable state re-queried on its own, and review threads read as a separate step.

Rebase result: the three patches are already in #10's squash commit

I rebased only the post-merge tip range with:

git rebase --onto origin/main c1204ec safety/micro-conflict-0821-final

The result is a zero-diff branch:

HEAD:        f216b4706a0bfa5c90cc9b2c09898197ae8a4793
origin/main: f216b4706a0bfa5c90cc9b2c09898197ae8a4793
git diff origin/main...HEAD: empty

Git dropped cad92bc and e5d902f as patches already upstream. 1e308f5 encountered one test conflict because current main already uses the follow-up unknownCode harness flag; resolving in favor of that correct current-main behavior left the commit empty too.

This is not merely equivalent later work. git blame origin/main attributes all of these exact lines to #10's squash commit a8aa101:

• all-unknown resolved capability modes and the microsandbox guard test;
• Unicode-aware /gu run-segment encoding and the distinct-astral-ID regression test;
• rejection of a log read without a numeric exit code and its unknownCode regression test.

The full a8aa101 commit message also contains the three exact subcommit headings and descriptions. The individual commits' author dates are Aug 21, while the #10 squash commit is Aug 22, so the premise that these were created after #10 merged is contradicted by repository history. They are valuable fixes, but they were not stranded: they shipped in #10.

No #29 or #31 content was reverted. Package version remains 0.1.6, and src/mount-script.ts is unchanged.

Full local validation on workflow-matching Node 22

• npm ci: pass
• npm run test:package: pass
• npm run typecheck: pass
• npm test: pass — 766 tests, 757 pass, 0 fail, 9 expected skips

Node: v22.22.1. npm: 10.9.4. (The default npm invocation was blocked opening the Dropbox-backed user .npmrc; setting NPM_CONFIG_USERCONFIG=/dev/null made the public-dependency workflow deterministic.)

I have not pushed the zero-diff rebase, because doing so would collapse this PR to no changes and may close it. Gatekeeper decision requested: close #26 as already included in #10, or specify another disposition. I do not recommend manufacturing empty commits solely to preserve the three hashes.

Review-thread audit (bodies read, not check status)

PR #26 has five unresolved, non-outdated threads. I verified each against current main; all five findings remain technically valid:

1. E2B/Daytona bounded logs omit truncated — both bounded read paths return shortened output without the contract marker, and getExecLogs drops it.
2. Local adapter drops reconciled — startScript returns only sessionId and commandId.
3. Malformed UTF-16 session IDs alias — unpaired surrogates and U+FFFD normalize to the same UTF-8 bytes.
4. Empty session ID maps to the run-state root — the empty encoded segment makes admission collide with its parent directory.
5. Required durable-state writes are unchecked — command/PID write failures can still be followed by an ADMITTED response.

These are real follow-up defects already present in a8aa101/current main; they are not changes introduced by the three supposedly stranded commits, because those three are also already in a8aa101. I have not expanded this redundant PR into a five-defect follow-up without a gatekeeper ruling, and I have not resolved or dismissed any thread.

Closing: the work is already on main. My earlier framing was wrong.

sandbox-26-rebase-0823 rebased this branch onto current origin/main and got a zero diff. I verified that independently rather than taking it, and it is correct — all three changes are already present:

Change	Evidence on origin/main
IsolationLevel gains 'unknown'	export type IsolationLevel = 'none' | 'process' | 'strong' | 'unknown';
Unicode code-point session IDs	[...Buffer.from(character, "utf8")] in src/microsandbox/runtime.ts:2822
Log read without exit code throws	MicrosandboxLogReadError exported from src/microsandbox/index.ts, asserted at runtime.test.ts:3608 and :3625
unknownCode harness flag	runtime.test.ts:67, :488, :3639

So the content landed through the #10 squash commit a8aa101.

Why this looked stranded, and the check that misled

The PR description said the three commits were verified as not ancestors of main via git merge-base --is-ancestor. That is accurate and it is also the wrong test here: #10 was a squash merge, which rewrites the commits into a single new SHA. The originals are correctly reported as non-ancestors while their content is fully present. --is-ancestor answers "is this commit in the history", not "did this change land", and after a squash those two questions come apart.

That is worth recording because the same check will mislead the same way next time.

On my ruling

My earlier comment ruling in favour of 'unknown' still stands as policy, and I do not withdraw the reasoning — an isolation level is a security claim, and an adapter that cannot verify its guarantees should say unknown rather than assert a level nobody checked. But I framed it as a decision that still needed implementing, and I closed by saying these commits "should not be lost a second time."

That framing was wrong. They were never lost. The ruling was already satisfied by code on main before I wrote it, and I should have checked main before writing a ruling about whether to adopt something already adopted.

Outcome

Closing as already-applied. No rebase, no merge, nothing to land. safety/micro-conflict-0821-final can be deleted whenever convenient.

Nothing was merged, published, or deployed for this issue.
