[Fix] DCG: name the assumed shell in blocks and enable Windows packs - #2116
Stacked on #2115 (it reuses utils/shellDialect.ts). Until that merges, this PR also shows its commit; the DCG changes are the last commit only.
Problem
dcg parses every command as POSIX, while execute_command runs cmd.exe on Windows. A block therefore can mean "unreadable as POSIX" rather than "destructive", and nothing in the message says which. Separately, DCG's windows.* packs are off by default, so cmd-only destructive forms are not matched.
Change
formatDcgBlockedMessage(reason, ruleId, shellPath?) appends a localized note (all 18 locales) when the executing shell is cmd.exe or PowerShell: DCG analyzes POSIX syntax, but the command runs in <shell>, so a block may mean DCG could not read it. The call site passes getShell().
On Windows, runDcg passes --with-packs windows.filesystem,windows.misc (new getDcgArgs), per the finding in the issue that this makes rd /s /q and format detectable on v0.7.7.
Not covered (needs follow-up)
Parsing in the real dialect: dcg test --dialect cmd|unknown only exists in newer releases, and the pinned DCG_VERSION is v0.7.7. Bumping it requires updating the archive SHA-256 values, which I did not verify here.
del /q stays allowed even with the packs on v0.7.7 (per the issue comment).
The --with-packs change is based on a Linux-build v0.7.7 test reported in the issue; I did not run the Windows binary.
Tests
getDcgArgs per platform, message note for cmd/PowerShell vs POSIX/undefined shells; getShell is pinned in the tool spec so the suite does not depend on the host. core/tools, services/destructive-command-guard, utils, i18n, core/prompts (1,835 tests) and check-types pass.
No actionable comments were generated in the recent review.
Summary
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Added syntax guidance for Windows Command Prompt and PowerShell when command execution is available.
Destructive Command Guard messages can identify the active shell and clarify that POSIX parsing may affect blocking decisions.
Windows command protection now includes platform-specific safeguards.
Localization
Added and updated translations for destructive-command blocks, including reasons, rules, and shell interpretation guidance across supported languages.
The changes detect supported Windows shell dialects, add shell syntax guidance to prompts and destructive-command denial messages, and include Windows-specific packs in DCG arguments.
Changes: Shell-aware command guard
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Shell detection and prompt context src/utils/shellDialect.ts, src/utils/__tests__/shellDialect.spec.ts, src/core/prompts/sections/system-info.ts, src/core/prompts/sections/__tests__/system-info.spec.ts
New helpers identify cmd.exe and PowerShell variants. The system prompt adds a Shell Syntax line for recognized dialects when execute_command is available.
DCG denial messages with shell context src/core/tools/ExecuteCommandTool.ts, src/core/tools/__tests__/executeCommandTool.spec.ts, src/i18n/locales/*/tools.json
Destructive-command denial messages append localized shell guidance when the active shell has a recognized dialect. Locale strings and tests cover this behavior.
The PowerShell guidance now distinguishes command success from native-program exit codes. Shell-specific denial notes and Windows guard-pack arguments introduce no established merge-blocking issue.

Explanation
The title names both main changes: a note that names the assumed shell in DCG blocked messages, and enabling Windows packs. It is specific, uses the repository's tag style, and matches the changeset and the PR objectives. It is slightly long at 68 characters.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the template's main sections: linked issue (partial reference to #2082), description of problem and change, test procedure, and notes on scope. It states clearly what is not covered and why. Some template items are not filled in. These are the Documentation Updates choice, the Get in Touch Discord username, and the checklist boxes. The description is mostly complete, so the check passes.
Full details: Security Boundaries
Explanation
No changed path meets the security failure conditions. runner.ts:29-40 adds only fixed Windows pack arguments and passes command as one argument to spawn with shell: false; it does not create a shell-injection path or bypass approval. ExecuteCommandTool.ts:64-85,202 uses the shell only to format a denial message. getShell() validates the shell against its allowlist, and getShellName() emits only the final executable name. The prompt and locale changes add static guidance and do not expose secrets or PII.
Full details: Persistence Integrity
Explanation
No changed persistence path exists. The production changes only build DCG process arguments, format messages, and add prompt text. runDcg still awaits the spawned decision at ExecuteCommandTool.ts:200; the new getDcgArgs only returns an in-memory argument array at runner.ts:29-32. No changed write, save, atomicity, rollback, or persisted-default propagation path is present.
Full details: Lifecycle Resource Cleanup
Explanation
No changed lifecycle path can leak or duplicate resources. The only changed process path is runDcg, where getDcgArgs changes spawn arguments only. The existing timer is cleared on success and failure, and failure kills the child process. The other changed code is pure message, prompt, locale, and shell-dialect logic with no listener, watcher, timer, task, or provider lifecycle.
Full details: Regression Evidence
Explanation
The previous regression remains unresolved. ExecuteCommandTool.execute passes getShell() to formatDcgBlockedMessage, but the denial-path test pins /bin/bash and expects only the base reason-and-rule key. The Windows-shell formatter test uses no reason or ruleId, so it does not cover the real reason-and-rule branch. A mutation that removes getShell() from the denial call, or omits the POSIX note from the reason-and-rule branch, would still pass.
Resolution
Add a focused denial-path test with getShell() returning cmd.exe or PowerShell and DCG returning decision: "deny" with both reason and ruleId; assert that task.say includes the localized POSIX-assumption note and shell name. Parameterize the formatter test across all four reason/rule combinations with a recognized Windows shell, while retaining POSIX and unset-shell cases.

The system prompt only named the shell path, so rules and habits written for
bash silently ran with cmd semantics on Windows. Add a Shell Syntax line for
cmd.exe and PowerShell (when execute_command is available) covering command
chaining, variables and exit codes.

DCG parses every command as POSIX, so on cmd.exe/PowerShell a block can mean
the command was unreadable rather than destructive. Append a note saying so,
and enable DCG's windows.filesystem/windows.misc packs on Windows so cmd-only
destructive forms (rd /s, format) are matched.

Resolve a mutation gap
Add or strengthen a focused test that fails under the mutation. If the mutant is equivalent, request maintainer approval for the narrowest mutator-specific exclusion and explain why it cannot change behavior:
// Stryker disable next-line ConditionalExpression: normalized input cannot reach the alternate branch
const result = condition ? value : fallback
Broad all exclusions and exclusions without a concrete reason are reported as advisories.

The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
The spec pins getShell to /bin/bash, so the deny test never sees a cmd or PowerShell shell. Would a call-site test help? It would mock getShell to return the cmd.exe path and assert that the say("error", …) text contains the note. Then dropping this third argument would fail a test.

The runDcg spawn test only checks expect.any(Array) for the args. Could it assert the args equal getDcgArgs(command)? Then replacing this call with a literal list would fail a test.
