TL;DR: the workspace's write, edit and delete now store exactly what they're given or refuse, and say so when a change is stored but disk didn't take it. read numbers the lines a file has, and an edit applies to the text disk holds now, saying which copy it used. Each case below changed what an agent's file held, or told it something untrue, while answering success.

Problem

On main (3adbdb86, and 119a8625, which changes only CI and CONTRIBUTING since), driving the workspace module through handleToolCall as a tool call reaches it (Node 24.22.0, Linux):

• An edit's replacement wasn't written as given. edit replaced with String.replace, which reads $&, $$, $` and $' as patterns: editing "price: 10" with newString $$5, $&, $', $1 wrote "price: $5, 10, \n, $1", and replaceAll with $&$& doubled each match. Each answered success.
• An edit of a file that isn't valid UTF-8 changed bytes outside the edit. It decoded with U+FFFD and wrote the whole text back: editing "au" in a Latin-1 "café au lait" also turned the é byte E9 into EF BF BD.
• A lone UTF-16 surrogate in a write's content was written as U+FFFD, with a success receipt.
• An empty oldString matched between every character: with replaceAll, "abc\n" became "XaXbXcX\nX". A replaceAll whose oldString wasn't in the file answered success and stored the file unchanged.
• Inputs weren't checked against the tool's schema. An edit with no newString wrote the word "undefined". replaceAll: "false" counted as true. read numbered lines from an offset of 0, -1 or 1.5 as given.
• A change stored but refused by disk read as a failure. On a mount with autoMaterialize, a write whose push disk refused answered "Wrote to Chronicle but failed to materialize …", though the workspace had stored it. Sending an edit again after that answer applied it twice. A throw after the change was stored answered only the error.
• A refused push's way out named the wrong tool. Quoted under write, edit or delete, it said "pass force", an argument those tools don't take. For a deletion it left out applyDeletions, without which materialize unlinks nothing. A disk copy that couldn't be verified was offered force whatever kept it from being verified: over a FIFO, or a symlink the mount doesn't follow, a forced materialize answered "not written: not a regular file" or "not written: a symlink, which this mount does not follow", and left it as it was. A copy the workspace couldn't read was offered force with no word that a forced write needs the file writable, or a forced unlink its directory, neither of which the read's refusal shows. A path whose branch intent couldn't be read was told to fix it and materialize again, which is refused the same way until a sync of the path replaces the intent.
• read counted a line the file doesn't have. "a\nb\n" read as three lines, the third empty, and an empty file as one. An offset past the end answered success with fromLine 10 and toLine 3.
• An edit didn't look at disk. It read the workspace's stored copy, so after another writer changed the file, it edited the older copy, and on a pushing mount its push then failed as stale.
• Smaller texts: grep refused an invalid pattern as "Invalid regex: (" with no reason, and a refusal thrown inside a tool began "Error: ". A push blocked by a directory at the path offered force, which can't write or unlink there. One blocked by a file where the path needs a directory named no way out.

Changes

All in src/modules/workspace/ (index.ts, reconcile.ts).

• Exactly what was given, or a refusal (handleWrite, handleEdit, parsePath):
  • edit replaces through a replacer function, so the new text goes in as given.
  • edit refuses a file that isn't valid UTF-8 (isUtf8), changing nothing. Its refusal says that read shows each invalid byte sequence as U+FFFD, and that a write replaces the whole file as UTF-8, so writing back what read shows puts U+FFFD in their place.
  • edit refuses an oldString that isn't in the file, replaceAll or not, and an empty oldString.
  • write refuses a lone surrogate in content, and edit in oldString or newString, before anything is read. Every tool refuses one in a path, in parsePath, since disk's name for the file is UTF-8.
• Every tool's input is checked against its own schema before its handler runs (inputProblem, in handleToolCall): an object, each required field present, strings, booleans, and whole numbers. A typed field given as null, or a number given as a string, is refused with the field named, as read already refused them for offsetChars and limitChars. Minimums sit in INPUT_MINIMUMS, beside inputProblem: read's offset and limit at least 1, offsetChars 0 and limitChars 1, and grep's context lines 0. membrane's ToolParameter has no minimum. read's offset and limit, and grep's context fields, are now typed integer. read's own check of offsetChars and limitChars folds into this one, and its check that a read doesn't page by lines and characters at once stays.
• A change stored but unfinished says so (storedButUnfinished). A write, edit or delete whose push to disk didn't complete, or that threw after its tree entry was set, answers an error. It leads with "The … of "path" is stored in the workspace, so don't send it again", then quotes the push's reason, which says what disk holds and the way out. A throw adds that ls shows the path's state. The answer carries no data: an error reaches the model as its text alone (buildStoredToolResultContent), and a code_execution script as Error: and that text (handleScriptToolCall), so the text says everything. commitToolChange now marks a removal committed as it does a set.
• A refused push names materialize's way out (reconcile.ts): "materialize it with force" where it said "pass force", and, for a deletion, applyDeletions beside it. inTheWay says what's in the way when disk's shape blocks a path: a directory at it, or a file or symlink where its directory should be. It gives the way out for a write, and for a deletion it says that no push unlinks a directory. It answers for the unverified refusal and for a failed effect. Any other disk copy that can't be verified is told to fix it and materialize again, and force is named beside that only where a forced push is known to get past what kept the copy from being verified (forcedWay). For cannot open (EACCES), a file its permissions keep the workspace from reading, force is named on the condition it needs: "if disk lets the workspace write the file", or for a deletion "unlink the file", since a read's refusal shows neither. For a deletion, something that isn't a regular file is named force as it is, since unlinking removes it. A path whose branch intent can't be read is told to sync the path, which replaces the intent: decide() decides nothing over such an intent until a sync does, and no force is named for it. A sync replaces it only where it sees disk's copy, so where disk's copy can't be verified either, the reason names that first and says the sync works once it can be.
• read and grep number the lines a file has (linesOf): a final line end ends the last line, and an empty file has no lines. An offset past the last line answers empty content with totalLines, no range, and a note saying where the file ends. An empty file read from line 1 answers totalLines: 0 with no note.
• An edit applies to the text disk holds now. It first passes over its path, as a listing does, so a change on disk to a file the workspace holds comes in. That pass also settles a pending intent on the path, which settleBeforeMutation did there before.
  • What the answer says: when disk's copy had changed since the workspace last agreed with it, when disk had deleted the file, or when disk's copy couldn't be checked and the edit used the workspace's copy. Also when disk has no copy and nothing records whether it was deleted there: the edit uses the workspace's copy, and its commit makes the path the workspace's own change (commitToolChange marks it the store's), so the file goes back to disk, with the edit's own push on a mount that pushes or with a materialize of the path on one that doesn't. It did before too, unsaid; now a success says which. The note on which copy the edit used comes on a success, a miss and a stored-but-unfinished answer alike.
  • A file the workspace didn't hold is taken in with no note, since there's no older copy the agent could have read.
  • A draft whose disk copy also changed: the edit applies to the draft as before. A note names the conflict and both ways out on a refusal for what the edit found: a miss, a string found more than once, or a copy that isn't valid UTF-8. On a mount that doesn't push, a success names it too. On a mount that pushes, the push's own reason names it when the push stops there, and an edit whose push completed met no conflict, as when the edit made the draft agree with disk, so its success names none. A stored edit that couldn't finish leaves it to the push's reason, or to ls, which its answer points to.
  • write doesn't look at disk first, since it replaces the whole file. As before, it only settles a pending intent.
• Smaller texts: grep's refusal gives the parser's reason, and the catch-all gives an error's message without "Error: ". ls's description names applyDeletions beside force for a path the workspace deleted.

What callers will notice

• Agents: refusals where they used to get a silently wrong file; an answer that tells them a change is stored before they send it again, with a way out they can take; line counts that match the file; and edits that see another writer's change and say so. A disk copy that can't be verified is offered force only where a forced push is known to get past what kept it from being verified, and one the workspace can't read is offered it on the condition force needs. So one whose read failed otherwise, or that changed while it was read, is now told only to fix it and materialize again.
• Calls that used to work: a typed field sent as null, or a number sent as a string, is refused with the field named, where some handlers read null as the field's default and did arithmetic on a numeric string.
• Scripts: a stored change that didn't reach disk is an error whose text says so first, which a script receives, as it does any error, as Error: and that text. A read past the end has no fromLine or toLine, and its content is empty, as before, so a loop that pages until it reads nothing still stops. The refusal texts changed. Nothing in connectome-host 9bc96b14, chapterx c77a8932, discord-mcpl 4076d692, context-manager e8e8b214 or membrane 5c684a79 matches on the texts this change replaced in the workspace's answers ("Wrote to Chronicle", "did not unlink", "Invalid regex", "failed to materialize").
• Hosts and recipes (connectome-host cited at 9bc96b14): nothing to change for a recipe that sets autoMaterialize as the boolean connectome-host declares it (src/recipe.ts:685). A tool's change now pushes only where autoMaterialize is true itself, as connectome-host's own check reads it (src/recipe.ts:2474); main read it for truthiness, so a mistyped string "true" or "false" pushed there and doesn't now. In connectome-host, the Web UI and the headless child's answer to the fleet's request-workspace-file read totalLines, fromLine and toLine with defaults (src/modules/web-ui-module.ts:2432-2471 and src/headless.ts:350-384), so an empty file shows as no lines, and a file ending in a line end shows its real count. The schemas' integer types change the tool definitions a model receives, so each agent's first request after the upgrade misses the prompt cache once.

Tests

On Linux, Node 24.22.0, installed with npm install as CI does (membrane 0.5.87, context-manager 0.14.1, chronicle 0.4.0):

• The new tests: test/workspace-file-tools.test.ts, 35 cases, pass 35/35 at 83cc65ea, none skipped. This head changes only a comment since. The module's ten other test files pass beside them, none skipped, workspace-three-way 213/213 among them, where two expectations changed, for the new texts of a refused deletion and the interrupted reason. workspace-materialize-freshness's test that an unreadable but writable disk copy's refusal names the override passes unchanged, 9/9 for its file.
• Red-first: against main 3af13bf4's index.ts and reconcile.ts, all 35 new cases fail.
• main merged in: 1d5f4108 merges main 3af13bf4 into the branch. The counts above are at 83cc65ea, which builds on it, and tool-result-guard passed 124/124 at 1d5f4108. fix(workspace): refuse a glob brace form that can't be read, rather than hang or misread it #439's new workspace-glob-unclosed-brace test expected main's catch-all prefix, Error: , and its expected text drops it here, as every workspace refusal does now; its file passes 6/6. Before that line changed, a run of the same merge passed main's other changed tests that touch the workspace: failed-create-releases, prose-segments, save-recent-image and stop-at-tool-boundary.
• Removals: each piece, removed or turned back alone in the built code, fails at least one case: 53 pieces at 80c432cd, then 17, 7, 4, 4 and 2 for the rounds after it, at 650487e6, 3e8536e3, 99f8c577, 2c8c9d7d and 83cc65ea. The pieces are: each refusal, input check and minimum; each stored-but-unfinished answer and its note, that it carries no data, and that a refused edit's says nothing of the file going back; the committed mark on a removal; the line rule in read and grep, and the past-the-end answer and its note; the edit's pass and each of its notes, the missing-copy note in each mount's words, the conflict note on each refusal, and no conflict note on a pushing mount's success among them; the reasons' materialize wording for a write and a deletion; inTheWay's reasons, at both call sites; forcedWay's two cases, the EACCES case's condition and the permission it names, and naming force for every note or for none; the unreadable intent's reason, with the sync as its one way out, and its naming disk's copy first where a sync can't see it; grep's reason; and the catch-all's text.
• A forced push, as file modes bind a user: the tests force a write past a 0200 file and see one refused at a 000 file, force the unlink of an unreadable file, and check that a write over a symlink the mount doesn't follow isn't offered force. A forced materialize over that symlink, run at d10f4ae3, answered "not written: a symlink, which this mount does not follow" and left the link and its target as they were.
• Internal review: run on 006b5329, whose 29 issues are judged; on its first fix round's diff, 006b5329..a1676bc8, whose 24 are; on the rounds after that, a1676bc8..d10f4ae3, Ogden-2688's run, whose 15 are; on the next, d10f4ae3..650487e6, his second, whose 9 are; on 650487e6..3e8536e3, his third, whose 11 are; and on 3e8536e3..99f8c577, his fourth, whose 9 are. 2c8c9d7d answers that sixth run, in the tests alone, 1d5f4108 merges main onto it, and 83cc65ea answers Greptile's review of 1d5f4108.
• The suite, at 80c432cd merged onto main 119a8625 (47a18338), on Linux at loads of 59 to 77 on 12 CPUs. This head adds to 80c432cd the changelog's fix, five rounds in the workspace module and its tests, and main's move from 119a8625 to 3af13bf4, whose own runs are above; GitHub's CI runs the suite on the pull request. The typecheck and build are clean. Each test file run on its own on Node 24.22.0: 153 files and 2462 tests, all passing but one, below. main 3adbdb86, whose test files 119a8625 keeps, run the same way has 152 files and 2434 tests, and the only file whose count differs is the new one, of 28. CI's test step passes 2462 of 2462 on Node 20.20.2. On Node 24.22.0 it ran 2454 and failed one: --test-force-exit cut eight tests short under that load, each of which passes when its file runs on its own. CI's unforced step passes 105 of 105 on each Node.
• Two tests failed in some runs, under that load:
  • code-execution's "abort() settles a running script and reclaims the interpreter" failed in CI's step on Node 24, its result without aborted, and passed with its file run on its own in the same check (50 of 50). It gives the interpreter 500 ms to start before it aborts.
  • tool-result-guard's "fix(guard): a withheld tool result says where its original is (#277) #281: batches behind one stalled write cost one deadline: no write starts until it settles" failed in 2 of 10 runs of its file on its own at 47a18338, one in the check above and one at a load of 70, and in none of 10 at main, 9 of them run alternately with the head's at loads of 40 to 72. It passed in CI's step on both Nodes, and its file passed 124 of 124 in runs of 650487e6, 3e8536e3 and 99f8c577, each merged onto main 119a8625, the first at a load of 9. The failure kept is "expected 2, actual 1", the count of writes after the third batch. Ogden-2688 read it as a race with load in main's test: once a batch's deadline, 50 ms here and counted from when the batch is queued, has passed, spillWithheld answers batch_deadline before any write (framework.ts:15073 at this head), and nothing this change touches runs before that check; parsePath's surrogate check runs after it. Run alone (--test-name-pattern) and pinned to one CPU beside six busy loops, the test failed 3 of its first 13 runs at d10f4ae3, each at an assertion expecting true, which one wasn't kept; the same run at main never started, since the test machine went down first. main has since fixed the test: test(guard): hold the clock still in three batch-deadline tests #407 (ff90a0f6) holds Date still in it and in two other batch-deadline tests, for that reason, and its message says this test and one other failed now and then under load, on main and on branches that didn't touch the guard. This head merges that fix in with main.

Not verified

• Windows. GitHub's CI runs the suite on Linux and macOS with Node 20 and 24, and all four passed at 1d5f4108.
• watch: 'on-agent-action' and 'always': the edit's pass over its path is the one listings make on every watch mode, and the tests run on 'never'.
• Chronicle's treeSet and treeRemove are taken to change the tree only when they return. The committed mark is set right after each, and chronicle ships here as a native binary, so I didn't read its source.
• A deletion meeting the interrupted conflict. Its reason takes the deletion's wording, as the no-evidence one does, which a test drives.
• Whether a forced push gets past the notes force isn't named for, such as a read that failed otherwise. Runs show only that it doesn't get past a FIFO for a write or a symlink the mount doesn't follow. By reading, a forced write gets past "the file changed while it was read", where materializing again is named instead, since another writer is at the file; and on a mount that follows symlinks, a forced deletion unlinks a symlink to a directory, which isn't named force.
• How a forced push treats a path whose branch intent can't be read: by reading, a forced write goes ahead, and a forced deletion is skipped with no entry in the answer. That's main's code, on a path only store damage reaches, and this change leaves it as it is.

Out of scope

• Not in this change: a planner with edit_many, the read half of the disk check, what a read shows of CRLF, a BOM and undecodable bytes, and a bound on one page.
• writeBinary's refused push keeps its own answer. That answer already says its bytes are in Chronicle and carries inChronicle, and sending it again writes the same bytes.
• A mount-prefixed pattern in glob, and in grep's glob filter: fix(workspace): glob and grep's glob filter take a mount-prefixed pattern #401 changes both.
• A deletion through a symlinked parent, found while testing this change. On a mount that doesn't follow symlinks, materialize with applyDeletions unlinked a file behind a symlinked parent that resolves inside the mount, a different path from the one deleted, at 3adbdb86. A link resolving outside the mount is refused. This change doesn't touch that code.
• Overlaps: fix(tools)!: a module tool's call is checked against its schema before the module runs #372 checks a module tool's required keys for every module. This change checks the workspace's types and its own required keys, so either can land first, and git merges fix(tools)!: a module tool's call is checked against its schema before the module runs #372's head 4275ef75 with this one cleanly. fix(workspace): three reads' size limits bound the read itself #409 and fix(workspace): refuse a glob brace form that can't be read, rather than hang or misread it #439 have landed, and this head merges them in. fix(workspace): glob and grep's glob filter take a mount-prefixed pattern #401, open, conflicts with this head in index.ts at its head 92092ab2.

What each part is for

The design this follows names each part's purpose and cost; this records only where building changed it.

• Booleans are checked too, beyond the design's text and numbers. replaceAll: "false" counted as true. By reading, so would materialize's force: "false", which overwrites another writer's change, applyDeletions: "false", which deletes disk's copies, and sync's acceptRoot: "false", which takes a replaced root.
• null and numeric strings are refused for every typed field, rather than read as absent here and there. One rule is simpler than each handler's leniency, and read already refused them for character paging.
• Minimums sit in a table beside the check, since membrane's ToolParameter type has no minimum. The alternative, checks in each handler, would put the same rule in several places.
• grep numbers lines as read does: the same rule, found beside the phantom line, where ^$ matched past a file's last line.
• A replaceAll that matches nothing is refused, the same class as the design's refusals: a success that stored nothing new.
• A path's lone surrogate is refused for the reason content's is: disk's name for the file is UTF-8.
• A failure after the tree entry gets the stored answer too, as writeBinary's does (fix(guard): a withheld tool result says where its original is (#277) #281). The design named only a refused push. Without it, the throw's raw error would tell an agent nothing was stored.
• The stored answer quotes the push's reason and adds no claim of its own, since the reason knows what disk holds: an effect cut off partway, or a write that couldn't be made durable, may have reached disk. The reasons name materialize, because the tools that quote them don't take force.
• An edit says which copy it used. Without it, text the agent just read seems to vanish, or an edit lands on a copy disk no longer agrees with.
• The edit's pass stands in for settleBeforeMutation's there: it settles a pending intent the same way, and the commit enforces the precondition (commitToolChange). So the notes come from the one pass the edit makes.
• Force is named from a list of what a forced push is known to get past (forcedWay, two cases). Naming it for every note, as main did, offers it at a FIFO for a write and at a symlink the mount doesn't follow, where a forced push stops too. Naming it for none drops the override main's own test pins for a file that can't be read (workspace-materialize-freshness). A list of what stops it would offer force to any reason added later; this one gives such a reason only the way out that holds for all.
• The offer for a file the workspace can't read carries its condition, since that refusal can come from the file's permissions or a directory's, and a forced write needs the file writable, a forced unlink its directory. Checking those permissions first would read disk again where only the push acts on it.
• An intent that can't be read names a sync, the one way decide() takes past it. Naming force there would override a tombstone or a conflict the intent may have held. Where disk's copy can't be verified either, the reason names that first, since a sync then leaves the intent and the same refusal comes back.
• The edit says when disk has no copy and nothing records why, since its commit makes the file the workspace's own, which sends it back to disk and can undo a deletion made there on purpose. It says which way back the mount takes, since on a mount that pushes the file is already back when the answer comes. The note and the push read one predicate, pushesOnCommit, so the note can't name a push that didn't run.
• A conflicted path's refusals name the conflict, since the text the agent sought may be disk's.
• A pushing mount's success names no conflict, since the edit's push isn't forced and stops at one: a push that completed means the edit made the two copies agree, which settles it, or there was none.
• The stored answer carries no data, since an error's data reaches neither the model nor a script; its text is the one carrier.
• Cut: a second pass in edit after its own; inTheWay's wording for a deletion below a file, which nothing reaches, since a deletion there finds nothing to unlink; and the guard that kept the wording for a file in the way off a deletion, for the same reason. Each remaining piece has a test that fails without it (Tests), apart from four: the write's receipt, built before the change rather than after, which differs only if hashing a string could throw; ls's description, which no test reads; the unreadable intent's wording for a disk copy observed but not hashed, which only a path nothing tracks gets, so nothing reaches it there; and pushesOnCommit's read-only clause, main's guard kept, which nothing reaches, since each tool that commits refuses a read-only mount first.

Review

Reviewed in the house: an internal review of the change before publication, and five more of its fix rounds, whose findings this head answers. Ogden-2688 read the change whole across its rounds, against Ada-1017's design and Phoebe-2419's account, then each round and the merge of main as they came. From 650487e6 on, he ran the module's tests on each round merged onto main. Greptile's review of 1d5f4108 raised three findings, and 83cc65ea takes all three. Ogden-2688 read and approved 83cc65ea, and this head adds only a comment he suggested there.

The work began from Phoebe-2419's account of the workspace's file tools against the house's own file tools, which Esther-2584 read. Ada-1017 designed the change from it. Esther-2584 read the design against the account and the code, Cuthbert-2453 read the design's port of the house tools' edit planner, and Oscar-1808 ruled on which of its parts are fixes. Cuthbert-2453 also found that the stored answer's data reached no reader, and Ada-1017 decided it should go.

[Medium impact] The changes affect agents and callers using the workspace file tools.

The PR appears safe to merge, with nonblocking fixes for a misleading success note, bulk-edit memory use, and Windows test setup.

3.  FIFO tests fail on Windows ▶

Fix with agent prompt

### Issue 1
src/modules/workspace/index.ts:2420
On an `autoMaterialize` mount, an edit that makes the workspace text match disk clears the conflict in `pushPaths`. The success reply still uses the pre-edit report and tells the caller to run `sync` or forced `materialize`, even though no conflict remains. Check the state after the push, or describe the conflict as one that existed before the edit.

### Issue 2
src/modules/workspace/index.ts:2384
With `replaceAll: true`, this `split` creates one array entry per match just to check whether any match exists. Files with many short matches now need a large temporary array and an extra scan before `replaceAll` runs. Use `includes` for this case and count matches only when checking uniqueness.

```suggestion
        const count = input.replaceAll
          ? Number(content.includes(input.oldString))
          : content.split(input.oldString).length - 1;
```

Note: If this suggestion doesn't match your team's coding style, reply to this and let me know. I'll remember it for next time!

### Issue 3
test/workspace-file-tools.test.ts:434
Both new FIFO tests invoke `mkfifo` unconditionally, so they fail during setup on Windows, where that command is unavailable. Add the Windows skip used by the existing FIFO test in `workspace-three-way.test.ts` to both tests.

For each issue above, determine whether it is valid and should be fixed. If so, fix it directly.

Summary

Makes workspace file tools preserve replacement text, reject unsafe inputs, and explain when a stored change did not finish reaching disk.

• Workspace tools reject malformed inputs and keep edit text as given.
• File changes say when they are stored but have not reached disk.
• Edits use the current disk copy when it differs from the workspace.
• Reads and searches count the lines a file actually has.
• Workspace refusals give callers clearer reasons.

Check the state after the push, or describe the conflict as one that existed before the edit.

Fixed in 83cc65ea. On a mount that pushes, the edit's push isn't forced, so it stops at a conflict unless the edit made the two copies agree, which settles it. A push that completed therefore met no conflict, and the success answer no longer names one. A mount that doesn't push still names the conflict the pass found. The pushing-mount conflict test now makes the draft agree with disk, then checks that the answer carries no note and that a materialize meets no conflict.

Bulk edits waste memory

With replaceAll: true, this split creates one array entry per match just to check whether any match exists. Files with many short matches now need a large temporary array and an extra scan before replaceAll runs. Use includes for this case and count matches only when checking uniqueness.

Suggested change

	const count = content.split(input.oldString).length - 1;
	const count = input.replaceAll
	? Number(content.includes(input.oldString))
	: content.split(input.oldString).length - 1;

```suggestion
        const count = input.replaceAll
          ? Number(content.includes(input.oldString))
          : content.split(input.oldString).length - 1;
```

Note: If this suggestion doesn't match your team's coding style, reply to this and let me know. I'll remember it for next time!

Taken as suggested in 83cc65ea. With replaceAll, the edit checks for its text with includes. Without it, the edit still splits, since its refusal reports how many times the text occurs.

FIFO tests fail on Windows

Both new FIFO tests invoke mkfifo unconditionally, so they fail during setup on Windows, where that command is unavailable. Add the Windows skip used by the existing FIFO test in workspace-three-way.test.ts to both tests.

Fixed in 83cc65ea. Both FIFO tests now skip on Windows with "no FIFOs", as the FIFO test in workspace-three-way does.
