Summary

Make OpenMausBot's unattended approval path task- and workspace-bound across the native drivers, while keeping the bot productive for safe work.

  • Safe Codex task/CWD-bounded work can proceed without repeated human approval cards.
  • Destructive actions, remote delete APIs, account deletion, and other broad irreversible operations still ask.
  • Named CredVault consumer execution can proceed; raw credential output and environment/token export deny.
  • ACP/Claude requests that cannot prove an enforceable provider workspace sandbox remain human-carded instead of claiming workspaceBound: true.
  • Antigravity fails closed until it has a guarded ACP permission broker.
  • Decision logs distinguish approved, denied, and denial-delivery failure instead of recording an undelivered denial as successful.

Security and correctness fixes

  • Remove native fullAuto / permission-mode bypasses from ACP, Cursor, Droid, Grok, Claude, and Antigravity flows.
  • Bind approvals to the current task and normalized workspace root, including traversal and POSIX double-slash cases.
  • Detect nested interpreter commands, raw credvault/cv/op/pass/environment output, destructive remote-ref and API delete forms, MCP secret/read variants, and host-computer account deletion.
  • Parse Codex v2 item/started approval events and report exact file-operation summaries rather than marking every file change complete.
  • Keep unattended decision logging secret-free and truthful when a denial card cannot be delivered.

Verification

  • Full driver suite: 19 files; 375 passed, 1 platform-only skip.
  • Real-server decision/unattended integration: 11/11 passed.
  • Final independent exact-head suite: 9 files; 241 passed, 1 platform-conditioned skip.
  • Final direct adversarial matrix: 45/45 passed, covering dangerous wrappers, quoted tokens, remote deletion, strict-descendant local deletion, path escape, CUA account/repository removal, and CredVault raw-output boundaries.
  • tsc -p tsconfig.server.json --noEmit: passed.
  • git diff --check: passed.
  • Exact independently reviewed head: b4269a77d9478ec42bd8f38a4b5ff2631153f15c (SHIP).
  • GitHub CI: macOS, Ubuntu, Windows, package smoke, Swift/iOS, and CodeRabbit passed. Vercel remains failed on upstream authorization and is unrelated to this server-source slice.

Boundaries

This PR changes source behavior only. It does not install or activate an OpenMausBot package, restart a running bot or gateway, expose credentials, or claim live attended/unattended acceptance. Package cutover and live-session evidence remain separate. Codex is the verified workspace-bound lane; ACP and Claude remain conservatively carded because they report workspaceBound: false, and Antigravity remains fail-closed until a guarded broker exists.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR replaces provider-native autonomy with guarded permission decisions. It adds task and workspace scope checks, structured approval summaries, destructive and credential controls, fail-closed provider behavior, explicit denial logging, and unattended safe-work coverage.

Changes

Guarded permission approval

Layer / File(s) Summary
Scoped permission verdicts
server/auto-approve.ts, server/auto-approve.test.ts
Permission classification checks destructive operations, raw secrets, CredVault usage, dynamic commands, task scope, workspace scope, and summary completeness.
Approval metadata and decision contracts
server/drivers/approval-summary.ts, server/drivers/approval-summary.test.ts, server/contracts.ts, server/decision-log.ts
Approval summaries are bounded and marked complete or incomplete. Runtime events include request metadata. Decision logs support delivery-failure outcomes.
ACP guarded-mode enforcement
server/drivers/acp/*, server/drivers/claude.ts, server/drivers/antigravity.ts, server/testing/fake-acp-cli.ts
Providers ignore legacy native autonomy settings, route tools through the broker, emit structured requests, and block turns without guarded permissions.
Codex approval and workspace enforcement
server/drivers/codex.ts, server/drivers/codex.test.ts, server/testing/fake-codex-app-server.ts
Codex uses prompt-based approvals, workspace-write sandboxing, per-turn workspace roots, and normalized command and file-change approval data.
Verdict delivery and unattended execution
server/index.ts, server/decision-log-wiring.test.ts, server/unattended.test.ts
The server revalidates requests, delivers enforced decisions, records outcomes, explains guard reasons, and allows safe scoped webhook work without approval cards.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to b4269

The current head can still automatically approve some file operations without workspace containment and can downgrade sensitive requests from deny to ask, while broad approval scopes, denial handling, and decision-log error exposure remain unresolved. These issues can permit unintended unattended actions, expose provider content, or leave sessions stuck, so the PR is not merge-ready until the guards and failure paths are fixed.

Derive the two interpreter lists from one source.

UNBOUNDED_PROGRAM on Line 129 and VALUE_CAPABLE_PROGRAM on Line 66 hold the same interpreter set. VALUE_CAPABLE_PROGRAM adds only env and printenv. If a maintainer adds a new interpreter to one list and not the other, one guard weakens silently.

Build both from a shared array.

♻️ Proposed consolidation
+const INTERPRETERS = "sh|bash|zsh|fish|node|python\\d*|ruby|perl|php|osascript|pwsh|powershell";
-const VALUE_CAPABLE_PROGRAM = /^(?:env|printenv|sh|bash|zsh|fish|node|python\d*|ruby|perl|php|osascript|pwsh|powershell)$/i;

+const UNBOUNDED_PROGRAM = new RegExp(`^(?:${INTERPRETERS})$`, "i");

INTERPRETERS must be declared before both uses to avoid a temporal dead zone.

Add cases for the fallback branches.

- Around line 238-246: Update the absolute path regex in the summary-scanning
logic to allow paths preceded by colon or comma, and extend the
leading-punctuation cleanup in the callback accordingly. Preserve Windows
drive-letter matching and verify the existing suite remains valid.

In `@server/contracts.ts`:
- Around line 111-117: Update the Pi permission-event construction in
server/drivers/pi.ts to include the request’s working directory in cwd and
report workspaceBound according to the provider’s actual write-scope guarantee.
Ensure eligible events carry accurate explicit scope metadata so unscoped-guard
can evaluate them, without claiming containment when Pi does not enforce it.

In `@server/decision-log-wiring.test.ts`:
- Around line 329-331: Update the webhook auto-approval assertions in the
decision-log test to also verify that the returned row has unattended set to
true, alongside the existing decision and source checks.

In `@server/drivers/approval-summary.ts`:
- Around line 12-36: Update approvalSummary to treat empty and whitespace-only
string values as unreliable: use the fallback text and set reliable to false,
while preserving existing handling for non-empty strings and other value types.
Add matching tests in approval-summary.test.ts for both an empty string and a
whitespace-only string, expecting the fallback summary with summaryComplete
false.

In `@server/drivers/codex.ts`:
- Line 214: Require each turn to resolve a trusted canonical workspace root from
validated turn.cwd, rather than falling back to homedir(); reject or safely
handle omitted cwd without granting home-wide unattended access. Prevent
app-server params.cwd from replacing that root, and ensure approval events use
only turnCwd or a validated descendant while preserving workspaceBound
semantics. Add coverage for omitted cwd and mismatched params.cwd across the
approval handling paths.

In `@server/index.ts`:
- Around line 859-864: Update the interruption-failure handling in
respondToRequest so a failed interruptTurn does not leave the bot busy: retain
ownership until the provider stops, then use a bounded fallback to terminate or
dispose the provider turn and run the normal terminal cleanup. Add an
integration test covering both failed denial delivery and failed interruption.
- Around line 866-877: Update the appendDecision call in the delivery-failure
path to remove deliveryError from the persisted rule text and use only a fixed
delivery-failure classification. Keep deliveryError available solely for
non-persistent diagnostics, ensuring decision records returned by the decisions
API contain no raw adapter error text.

FILE_TOOLS is an incomplete allowlist, so unknown tools skip workspace containment. Line 211 returns true for any tool outside COMMAND_TOOLS and the anchored FILE_TOOLS prefix list. Tool names such as move_file, copy_file, create_file, and fs_write therefore reach allow with no absolute-path check. The existing test passes only because read_file happens to match the prefix list.

Path detection misses paths that follow a colon or comma.

Line 238 only accepts a path when it starts the summary or follows whitespace, =, a quote, or (. Provider summaries often use path:/etc/hosts, --file=/etc/hosts (covered), or comma-separated argument lists such as src=/workspace/a,dest=/etc/hosts (the second is covered by =, the first list form is not always).

Add : and , to the leading character class so those forms are scanned.

♻️ Proposed widening
-  const absolutePaths = summary.match(/(?:^|[\s='"(])(?:\/[^\s'"`;|&)]+|[A-Za-z]:\\[^\s'"`;|&)]+)/g) ?? [];
+  const absolutePaths = summary.match(/(?:^|[\s=:,'"(])(?:\/[^\s'"`;|&)]+|[A-Za-z]:\\[^\s'"`;|&)]+)/g) ?? [];

Line 241 already strips leading punctuation, so extend that strip set to match.

-    const candidate = raw.trim().replace(/^[='"(]+|[),]+$/g, "");
+    const candidate = raw.trim().replace(/^[=:,'"(]+|[),]+$/g, "");

Check that the Windows drive-letter branch still works after adding :, because C:\... contains a colon. The alternation places the drive branch after the prefix group, so C is consumed by the prefix only when a separator precedes it. Verify with the existing suite.

🔒 Security & Privacy | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

A destructive match suppresses the sensitive deny.

Line 266 computes sensitive only when destructive is null. If a request matches both, the verdict is ask, not deny. The raw-value guard is then downgraded to a human card.

Example: cat .env && rm stale.log. Line 15 matches rm after &&, so destructive is set, and the .env read never reaches the deny branch.

If suppression is deliberate, state the reason in the comment. If not, evaluate sensitive first and unconditionally.

🔒 Proposed ordering
-  const sensitive = destructive ? null : matchRawValueRequest(tool, summary);
+  const sensitive = matchRawValueRequest(tool, summary);

The deny outcome is terminal, so confirm this change against the destructive fixtures in server/auto-approve.test.ts before you apply it.

Mark an empty or whitespace-only summary incomplete.

Line 15 accepts any string, including "". The function then returns { summary: "", summaryComplete: true }. The fallback path on Lines 17-19 sets reliable = false for undefined and null, but an empty string bypasses it.

The downstream effect is concrete. In server/auto-approve.ts, an empty summary passes the destructive and sensitive guards, passes the summaryComplete gate, and reaches requestStaysInsideTask. For a file tool such as write or edit, the shell-segment check is skipped, the absolute-path scan finds nothing, and every() on an empty array returns true. The verdict becomes allow with source guarded-autonomy, even though the provider described no action.

Command tools fail closed here only because segments.length is zero. File tools do not.

🔒 Proposed fix
-  const complete = text.length <= MAX_APPROVAL_SUMMARY_CHARS;
+  if (!text.trim()) {
+    text = fallback;

Bind approval scope to one trusted workspace root.

Line 214 uses the full home directory when turn.cwd is absent. Lines 356-393 then let app-server request data replace the recorded workspace path. The driver still emits workspaceBound: true.

This can classify home-wide or provider-reported paths as task workspace access. Require a trusted, canonical workspace root for each turn. Do not use homedir() as the unattended writable root. Emit turnCwd, or a validated descendant, for every approval event. Add tests for an omitted cwd and a mismatched params.cwd.

Do not persist raw adapter error text in the decision log.

deliveryError is an arbitrary provider error message. Line 876 writes it to the durable decision log, which /api/decisions returns to clients. A provider error can include protected request data or provider output.

Persist a fixed failure classification instead. Keep diagnostic error text out of the decision record.

A destructive match still suppresses the raw-value deny.

Line 678 computes sensitive only when destructive is null. A request that matches both returns ask instead of the terminal deny. Example: cat .env && rm -rf build sets destructive first, so the .env read never reaches the deny branch. Evaluate matchRawValueRequest unconditionally, or state the suppression reason in the comment.

FILE_TOOLS still gates workspace containment, so unknown file tools skip the path scan.

Line 623 returns true for any tool that is neither in COMMAND_TOOLS nor matched by FILE_TOOLS. Tool names such as move_file, copy_file, and fs_write therefore reach allow without the absolute-path containment scan on Lines 602-616. Run the containment scan for every tool and limit the early skip to the shell-segment and interpreter checks.

Ignore late approval responses in approval-closed. The response handler calls finishTurn() after this mode already writes turn/completed, which can produce duplicate completion notifications and items.

In `@server/testing/fake-codex-app-server.ts` around lines 177 - 200, Update the
approval response handling for the approval-closed mode so late approval
responses are ignored after the mode has already emitted turn/completed. Prevent
the handler from invoking finishTurn() or producing additional completion
notifications/items in this mode, while preserving the existing response
behavior for approval and windows-command.
