Addresses the review findings on #371, plus several the bots did not catch.
All fixes have regression coverage that fails on the prior code.
Source corruption:
- Vue accept dropped valueless root attrs (disabled, v-cloak) and, worse,
rewrote @click="x" as a literal click="x" DOM attribute, because the attr
parser was name-anchored and skipped the sigil. Tokenize the whole Vue attr
grammar and normalize shorthands so accept round-trips directives.
- --variant was interpolated unescaped into a RegExp, so --variant '.*' matched
the original block first and reported a successful accept while silently
restoring the original. Validate against the digits pattern the browser and
the /events schema already enforce.
- --id reached path.join unvalidated, so --id ../../../../etc/evil wrote and
read receipts outside the project. Hoist the existing safeSessionId check
into impeccable-paths and apply it at every id-to-path sink.
Accept/lock correctness:
- Plain HTML/JSX accept and discard did not catch SOURCE_LOCKED, so contention
exited non-zero with empty stdout and the agent got no JSON to retry on.
- Lock staleness was mtime-only and never read the pid it records: a holder
whose critical section outran 60s had its live lock swept, admitting a second
writer to the same file, while a crashed holder blocked accepts for a full
60s. Decide staleness by owner liveness, and release only our own lock.
Detector:
- isNeutralColor only parses computed color forms, so routing authored CSS
through it reported inset 4px 0 0 #000 / black / #e5e7eb as chromatic
side-tab stripes. Add an authored-color neutrality test covering hex and
named neutrals; the fixture had no literal-color cases at all.
- Rule line numbers were off by one for every rule after the first, and
commented-out CSS was scanned as live rules.
Server:
- An error reply carries no sourceEventType, and inferSourceEventType returned
undefined, which acknowledgePendingEvent treats as a wildcard: a stale
generate worker's failure consumed the user's queued Accept, which then
reached no agent and left the browser in SAVING forever.
- The generate preflight spawned live-wrap.mjs synchronously inside the request
handler, freezing the single-threaded server for the whole scaffold (~7.6s
measured on this repo, 15s ceiling) and stalling Accept/Discard/SSE. Make it
async, claiming the lease before the first await so no event double-delivers.
- Every browser checkpoint was echoed back as variant_progress, so a Tune
slider drag remounted the preview under the user's cursor and latched the
*_reviewable phases from the wrong trigger. Gate on the reason.
Cleanup:
- Collapse four divergent benchmark argv parsers into scripts/lib/cli-args.mjs.
Three silently misread flags: --iterations 20 benchmarked 5, --agent llm ran
the fake agent, --median-target=0.4 used the default threshold.
- Drop a snapshot cache this branch made write-only (it grew per session for
the server's lifetime and was never read), a dead exported reconcile helper,
and the unused deferReply branch.
