Second unit of the #1914 split plan recorded on #1991 (plan comment 6717413931, addendum 6717425955). Declared merge order is main -> PR #1913 -> U5-B (this PR's parent content, PR #2357) -> this unit. Content is src/core/tools/guardedWrite.ts and src/core/tools/__tests__/guardedWrite.spec.ts, taken unchanged from 74f5eb287d1b, plus the one knip.json line that declares core/tools/guardedWrite.ts as a src workspace entry. 3 files, 2000+/6-.

What is counted, with the base named each time

reading extension changed executable lines over 500
this unit alone, 8a9d5b789..025fb7d0d 394 no
U5-A stacked on U5-B, over the unit chain base 416179d17de8 607 yes
what CI will print against this PR's base (main, which contains neither predecessor yet) cumulative, expected red advisory yes

All three by the repository's own counting rules (scripts/stryker-diff.mjs line accounting, MAX_CHANGED_LINES = 500, executable source lines; spec files are not counted), run locally at pinned node v22.23.4 on committed trees. The plan's addendum records why the gate reads cumulatively against the PR base and why a unit can only come back green after its predecessor lands: the number 607 is the stacked figure that applies while #1913 and #2357 are unmerged, and 394 is what this unit contributes once they are in.

Why it sits on #2357, measured rather than assumed

  • The tool's only dependency on the previous unit is Task's cancellationGeneration field, which guardedWrite reads at six sites. A variant carrying the writer and the tool but not Task (vps2f-1914-u5c) fails tsc with eight TS2339 errors for that property, which is what proved the merge order.
  • The unit also cannot precede the writer for the opposite reason: knip --production does not credit imports from files it reports as unused, so a writer-only unit has to declare the writer as an entry instead - the line the previous unit carries. Moving the entry here (it drops services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts! and adds core/tools/guardedWrite.ts!) is what makes both units pass knip in isolation, which matters because knip is a required status check on main.

Required contexts, read from the ruleset array for this head

Protect Main (ruleset 15494382) lists rules as an array; the member type: "required_status_checks" has parameters check-translations, platform-unit-test (ubuntu-latest), platform-unit-test (windows-latest), compile, knip, e2e-mock with strict_required_status_checks_policy: false. The pull_request member requires required_approving_review_count: 1 with require_code_owner_review: true, so a code-owner approval - a human - is what gates this PR, not a check.

  • Disclosures, same as the parent PR: no local Stryker preflight was run for this head, and no Stryker disable directive was added anywhere.

What this PR does not claim

It does not claim the hosted legs yet - they were queued when this body was written, and the verdicts will be read from the check-runs rather than predicted. It does not claim #1914 can close: the plan's partition assigns 193 + 394 = 587 lines over #1913's head to U5-B and U5-A, and #1914's own review questions (Q1 on the two superseded refusals, Q2 on U5-A's a+d of 1999 against the 1000 line) are recorded as open on #1991.

…ve (U1, issue 1375)

Split unit U1 of PR 1833. Three changes, each with a test that fails without it:
- a caller-supplied staging path is checked for location and file type before anything is written, so an arbitrary path or a symlink cannot be published onto the target;
- a failed parent-directory fsync on POSIX is reported as PostCommitDurabilityError instead of being swallowed, so a successful return never claims durability the filesystem did not grant;
- the staged file and this write's own staging directory are released before RollbackFailureError is thrown.

Focused coverage for resolveLockKey added: canonical parent directory, a dangling-link chain, and termination at the bounded depth on a two-link cycle.
…ishTarget (U1, issue 1375)

The resolver may fall back to the given path only when lstat also reports the path as absent. An EACCES or EIO failure says nothing about whether the path is a link, so falling back would publish through a link we were not allowed to inspect. Focused tests added for both branches.
… type-sound

compile failed at the unit head on three points:
- RollbackFailureError needs a string backupPath, but the throw now happens after cleanup, so the
  `string | null` narrowing was lost. The failure is now held as { error, backupPath }.
- The async lstat stand-in is built on the Stats prototype so it satisfies fsSync.Stats.
- The realpath/readlink mocks are typed to the real signatures; the readlink mock answers once
  because only the link path is read.

tsc clean, 50 tests pass, ESLint --max-warnings=0 clean, no suppression change.
The any usage this entry covered is gone in the rewritten file, so the count drops 4 -> 3.
eslint --prune-suppressions --max-warnings=0 confirms it.
The read tools record the observed on-disk version through task.observationRegistry, but the field
was only declared in a later unit, so at this head the call dereferences undefined and the mocked
e2e run fails on the read_file smoke tests. The registry is introduced by this unit, so the field
belongs here.

tsc clean on this unit, 11 observationRegistry tests pass, ESLint --max-warnings=0 clean.
…rtion

This unit was rebuilt from the pre-fix content source, so its copy of safeWriteText.ts
still restored the backup over a write whose commit rename had already succeeded when
the parent-directory fsync failed, and its spec asserted rmdir generically rather than
against the staging directory this write created.

Both are already settled in unit 1 (fws/u1-atomic-publish). Taking those files here
keeps the shared code byte-identical across the units, so merging the chain in order
does not overwrite unit 1's fix.

Tests: 52 passed in safeWriteText.spec.ts.
…s notice

The template literal continued on an indented source line, so the model-facing
output carried four leading tabs before the content. Replace the indented newline
with an explicit escape so the notice and the content are separated by a single
newline and nothing else.

Local note: readFileTool.spec.ts cannot run in this worktree (isbinaryfile is not
resolvable from either node_modules here); CI covers it.
safeWriteJson rethrows RollbackFailureError and the telemetry callers record only
error.message, so the generic wrapper message lost the filesystem errno text of the
publish failure. Include the publish error message while keeping the rollback context
(publishError, rollbackError, backupPath) unchanged.

Tests: 52 passed in safeWriteText.spec.ts, ESLint clean with --max-warnings=0.
… rollback failure

The assertion accepted any rmdir argument, so a regression that removed a different
directory still passed. Read this write's own staging directory from fsSync.mkdirSync
and assert that exact path.

Tests: 52 passed in safeWriteText.spec.ts, ESLint clean with --max-warnings=0.
The dump path was the fixed sibling <target>.acl.tmp. A pre-existing user file at that
path is unlinked by the failed-save branch and by both cleanup paths, and two concurrent
writes to the same target share one dump, so one write can restore or delete the other's.
Use the per-write unique name like the staging file.

Tests: 52 passed in safeWriteText.spec.ts, ESLint clean with --max-warnings=0.
…eturned

A slice that starts after line 1 and reaches EOF is not truncated, so the branch said
"The file was read in full" even though the earlier lines were omitted. Name the slice
start when the read did not begin at line 1, and add a focused test for that case.

Local note: readFileTool.spec.ts cannot run in this worktree (isbinaryfile is not
resolvable from either node_modules here) and ESLint cannot resolve its config here;
CI covers both.
…opy backup)

Pre-merge review flagged the publication path as non-atomic when backup:true: it renamed the existing target to a
backup name and only then renamed the staged file into place, so the canonical path was absent for the whole commit
window - readers saw a missing file, and a concurrent writer could create a new target that a later rollback would
destroy.

The backup is now a copy, never a move:
- the destination is created with openSync(backupPath, "wx", 0o600) before any content exists at it, so no content
  ever sits at a path whose mode fs.copyFile chose (it uses the platform creation mask subject to umask on some
  platforms, the source's mode and read-only attribute on others);
- chmod 0o600 after the copy clears a copied read-only attribute (Windows) that would otherwise make the fsync open
  fail with EACCES, and keeps a backup of a permissive file private;
- the copy is fsynced, then deleted once the commit rename has published; nothing is ever renamed back.

safeWriteText also rejects a staging file that is the target itself (same inode/device), which would otherwise let
a caller-supplied tempPath silently alias the target.

Tests: the safeWriteText spec is replaced with the copy-model spec plus a new integration spec that runs against the
real filesystem (no fs mocks) - success publishes and leaves no residue, and a directory target is rejected with the
payload bytes unchanged. The safeWriteJson spec moves from the three-rename/rollback model to the copy model, and the
lock-key spec accounts for the extra lstat the aliasing guard performs.

83 passed / 1 skipped across safeWriteText.spec + integration spec + safeWriteJson + safeWriteJson.lockKey; tsc and
eslint clean, no suppression drift.
Pre-merge review flagged that the write path trusts an unvalidated symlink target: safeWriteText resolves an
existing link to its referent and safeWriteJson then merges and publishes onto that referent, so a repository that
plants its project settings file as a link elsewhere receives the write at the linked path.

safeWriteJson now accepts confineTo. The check runs on the resolved publish target, after resolvePublishTarget and
before the merge read and before anything is staged, so a rejected write takes no lock and leaves no residue. Both
sides are canonicalized the same way: the scope is resolved through symlinks (walking to the nearest existing
ancestor when it does not exist yet, and rethrowing anything other than ENOENT), and the target is canonicalized
with the same helper because a target that does not exist yet still carries the alias components of the path it was
given.

Callers that picked a path from a known scope pass that scope; a caller that does not declare one keeps the current
behaviour. The MCP settings wiring that uses this is on the async-save series (Zoo-Code-Org#1403).

Tests: an out-of-scope path is rejected on every platform with no lock and no staged file; a planted link escaping
the project is rejected and the linked file keeps its bytes; a link inside the project still publishes to the
referent; and a scope declared through a symlinked directory that does not exist yet is accepted.
The staging-identity guard compared the caller-staged file with the target through fs.lstat(targetPath).catch(() =>
null). Any error other than ENOENT - EACCES, ENOTDIR, ELOOP - was therefore indistinguishable from "there is no
target", so a staging path that is a hard link of the target would pass the identity check, reach the commit rename,
and let the failure handler unlink the only copy of the content.

Only ENOENT now yields "no target"; anything else fails closed with a StagingPathError before anything is opened,
staged or renamed. Test: the staging path resolves to a hard link of the target (same ino/dev) and the target lstat
rejects with EACCES; the write is rejected with the comparison error and neither openSync nor rename is called.
The staging-identity guard read fs.Stats.ino/dev as JS numbers. On NTFS and ReFS those identifiers can exceed
Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER, and the rounding makes two different files look identical - a valid caller-staged file is
then rejected with StagingPathError (and a real alias could be missed). Both lstats now request { bigint: true } and
the comparison checks for bigint values before comparing them.

The spec stand-in carries bigint ino/dev, matching what lstat({ bigint: true }) returns at runtime (fs.BigIntStats is
a type-only export, so the double is documented at its single assertion).
The identity stand-in returns bigint identifiers regardless of the options, so the same-file tests could still pass if
either lstat dropped { bigint: true } - which is exactly the case that matters on NTFS/ReFS. Both tests now assert
that every identity lstat requested bigint stats.

The calls are filtered by their options rather than by path spelling: path.resolve prefixes a drive letter to
/tmp/... on Windows, so a path filter would only see one of the two reads on that platform.
…served

On win32 the DACL of an existing target is saved before the commit rename so it can be reapplied afterwards. Two
paths silently skipped that step and still published:
- icacls /save failed (saved === false): the dump is cleaned up and the rename proceeds, so the new file inherits
  different access rights;
- fs.access(targetPath) failed with something other than ENOENT (EACCES, ...): the catch treated "cannot check" as
  "target absent" and skipped DACL handling entirely.

Both now report through a new onWarning sink (default console.warn): the write still proceeds - a missing or failing
icacls must not leave the user unable to save, which is the documented fallback - but the caller is told the
replacement may inherit different access rights instead of discovering it later.

Tests: icacls save failure still commits the write and yields exactly one access-rights warning; an EACCES on the
target yields the could-not-check warning and no icacls call. Verified as real regression tests - neutralizing the two
warn calls makes both fail. 272 passed / 4 skipped locally; tsc and eslint clean.
onWarning is documented as the sink for non-fatal safety notices, but delivery was not isolated from the write: an
onWarning callback that threw propagated to the outer failure handler before fs.rename, turning a non-fatal notice into a
failed save. The warn binding now catches callback failures and logs them. The restore-failure notice is routed through
the same binding so a caller supplying onWarning receives it. Same fix as the u6 unit, kept aligned across the series.

Local: safeWriteText 58/58 green; eslint clean, no suppression growth.
proper-lockfile creates ${lockKey}.lock beside the lock key, and the key is the
symlink referent. A repository that plants .roo/mcp.json -> ~/.ssh/config
therefore made a confined write create a lock directory OUTSIDE the declared
scope, and when that directory was not writable the caller got a
lock-acquisition error after up to five retries instead of
ConfinedPathEscapeError. The confinement check now runs on the lock key before
acquireFileLock and is repeated on the resolved publish target inside the lock
(a peer writer may have moved the referent in between); both checks share
_assertWithinScope so they canonicalize identically.

Ported across the file-safety unit series so every unit that declares a scope
carries the same guarantee (same fix as fws/u3-observation-completeness).
Series alignment for the two review findings fixed on fws/u6-apply-patch-wiring:

1. safeWriteText's warn wrapper could not catch a rejection from an async
   onWarning sink - TypeScript accepts a value-returning callback where a void one
   is expected - so the rejected promise was left unhandled, which under Node's
   default mode can end the process after a write that already succeeded. The
   wrapper now attaches a catch handler without awaiting (awaiting would let
   warning delivery delay a committed write, or stall it on a hung sink) and
   reports the rejection through the fallback sink.

2. safeWriteJson created the target's parent directory BEFORE the preflight
   confinement check, so a confined write to an out-of-scope path with a missing
   parent still created a directory outside confineTo. resolveLockKey and the check
   need no directory to exist, so the order is now lock key, confinement, mkdir;
   the in-lock check on the resolved publish target stays.
…ith doUnmock

- safeWriteText.integration.spec: the backup:true case bails out in the backup step (copyfile
  over a directory), so the commit rename never runs and a regression in commit-failure cleanup
  would pass. Added the backup:false case, which is the shape that reaches Step 4: the rename of
  the staging file over the target directory fails and the staging file must be cleaned up.
- safeWriteJson.test: the finally blocks removed a vi.doMock registration with vi.unmock, which
  vitest hoists to the top of the file, so the cleanup did not undo the registration where it
  was written. Both sites now use vi.doUnmock, the non-hoisted counterpart.

Verified the two paths are distinct by calling safeWriteText against a real directory target:
backup:true fails at copyfile, backup:false fails at rename of the staging file.
Local: 29 passed / 4 skipped across the two specs; eslint clean on both files.
Task.ts initializes the registry per Task, but nothing read it off a real Task: the registry
tests exercise standalone instances and ReadFileTool's spec injects its own double, so the
wiring itself was unverified - a Task that never built a registry, or shared one across
Tasks, would pass every existing test while silently dropping read observations.

The new test constructs a real Task and asserts observationRegistry is an ObservationRegistry,
that a second Task gets a different instance, and that an observation recorded on one Task is
invisible to the other (parent and subtask authority over a file must stay separate).

Local: Task.dispose.test.ts 15 passed; eslint clean; no new tsc diagnostics in this file.
Security Boundaries: safeWriteJson resolves the publish target through realpath
before staging beside it, so a repository that ships .roo/mcp.json as a symlink to
a file OUTSIDE the workspace has that outside file replaced as soon as the user
edits a project MCP setting, deletes a server, or toggles tool always-allow. The
three project-capable write sites passed no confinement option, and the base
implementation renamed the link itself, so the external write is introduced here.

confineForMcpWrite(source) returns the provider cwd (falling back to
getWorkspacePath) for project writes and undefined for global ones - global
settings live in the user's own settings directory, which is deliberately not
confined. All three sites now pass it, so the write fails closed with
ConfinedPathEscapeError instead of touching the referent. This is the same change
as 256091d on fws/u3-observation-completeness (Zoo-Code-Org#1912); the unit branches are not
cumulative, so every branch that carries the writer needs its own copy.

Regression Evidence: the per-Task registry now fails closed on teardown too -
disposeOnce() clears it, so a disposed Task still reachable through a
parent/subtask reference cannot hand a token captured before teardown to a
guarded write. Two McpHub tests pin the call sites (a project-scoped allowlist
write carries confineTo = workspace root, a global one does not) and a
Task.dispose test pins the clear. The two-real-Task registry test added in
87986e9 already covers the distinctness the checklist row asked for.

Local: vitest McpHub + Task.dispose 89 passed. Negative controls: helper mutated
to return undefined -> project confine test fails; clear() commented out ->
disposal test fails; both restore green. tsc --noEmit 50 errors before and after
the change (unchanged branch baseline). eslint 0 errors / 0 warnings on all four
files, no suppression entry added or increased.
…every MCP confine site

Lifecycle Resource Cleanup: disposeOnce() cleared the registry, but a read that was
already awaiting fs.readFile when disposal began resumed afterwards and recorded the
file again - the disposed Task was authoritative once more, and it kept doing the new
post-read stat work for a turn that will never be acted on. ObservationRegistry.close()
now drops the entries AND refuses later observations, Task.disposeOnce() calls close(),
and both ReadFileTool paths skip the post-read stat + observe work when task.abort is
set (checked before the awaited stat, not after it).

Regression Evidence: the confinement fix touched three call sites but only
toggleToolAlwaysAllow was pinned. updateServerTimeout and deleteServer now have a
project case (confineTo = workspace root) and a global case (confineTo undefined) each;
the connection double is shared at describe scope so all four sites use one typed
fixture. safeWriteJson is mocked in this file, so a lower-level writer test cannot see
a missing MCP argument - each call site has to be pinned here.

Tests: 2 closure tests (close drops entries and reports closed; observe is a no-op after
close), 2 aborted-task tests (native and legacy path record nothing), 4 call-site
confinement tests, and the disposal test extended to assert the registry stays empty
when a late observation arrives.

Local: 203 passed across readFileTool, McpHub, Task.dispose and observationRegistry.
Negative controls, each mutate -> test fails -> restore -> passes: ReadFileTool guard
neutered, ObservationRegistry closure guard neutered (fails both the registry spec and
the Task disposal test), and close() downgraded to clear() (fails the disposal test).
tsc --noEmit 50 errors before and after (unchanged branch baseline, 0 in touched files).
eslint 0 errors / 0 warnings across all 8 touched files; no suppression entry changed.
The abort guard sat before the post-read fs.stat, so a cancellation that
lands while that stat is in flight still recorded an observation - for a
run that will never act on the read, and into a registry that disposal has
already retired. Both paths now re-check task.abort after the await and
before observe(); the read itself still answers the model.

Two tests flip task.abort inside the pending post-read stat, one per path,
and assert observe() was never called and the registry stayed empty.

Split plan pointer. The six-unit split plan for the 2357 head — refs, boundaries, per-unit counted executable lines (448 / 88 / 131 / 27 / 25 / 51, summing to exactly 770), what has been verified alone, the verification disclosure about @roo-code resolution, and the merge-order constraint that #2350 imposes — now lives on #2350, in comment 6735171826, because #2350 is the defect about the interaction between the plan's u1 and u2 (writer staging spell versus recovery's leftover prefixes) and it constrains the order rather than merely hosting the list.

Nothing has been opened for this plan from #2359. The scope line for the current 2357 head d6fa7117e07b70455da24e4722b47eb0b202fa6e (770 counted executable lines against a 500 limit, 26 files, +6,995 −76) is stated in the superseding width note on #2357, which names the five older comments it replaces.

Head moved, and the answers in this PR's threads were written against the previous head, so here is the reconciliation in one place rather than in twelve threads.

New head: 2c3f744f2d3afb94642f96cd5bd1bb79f4b33248 (pushed 2026-11-09T11:29Z, a fast-forward from 619f28c511cc19fcb70cf34ae74aaf2ba3c7f178 — git rev-parse 2c3f744^ is that old head, so nothing was rebased and nothing was forced). It changes one file: src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.spec.ts, +28/−11. That path is a test path, which the gate does not charge, so the counted cost is zero: measured with the gate's own buildManifest against the same merge base 5319fe91fb0caf4aa4ec66aac68fa03744ebbc23 (the same merge base as the previous head, computed against main at e487cd7b2a497aa1d9b60f9b0cb497f7839bb629),

Mutation gate failed: extension has 1283 changed executable lines (limit 500). Split the PR or obtain a maintainer-reviewed narrow exclusion.

— identical at 619f28c and at 2c3f744. CI reached the same sentence on its own: job 129133882571 (run 42609471559, completed 11:30:26Z), log line 1909, followed by Process completed with exit code 1. That is still the only failing arm; at the one read I took after the push (11:31:44Z) the other 16 check runs on this head were 6 success, 1 skipped and 9 still running, and the arms on the previous head were all green except this same width gate.

Why the answers already in the threads still hold at the new head. Twelve review threads are unresolved on this PR. Eleven of them are anchored in src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts, src/core/tools/guardedWrite.ts and src/utils/fileLock.ts; the pushed commit does not touch any of those files, so each of those anchors still names the code the answer quoted, and all eleven were re-read at 619f28c before I re-verified any of them this round. The twelfth, src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.spec.ts:261, is the one this commit answers: the double there now logs acquire:N:started and acquire:N:completed around the same hold the release already uses, the callback logs into the same list, and the row asserts one order instead of an acquisition-time list, which is what that thread asked for. My reply there (discussion_r4510313555) cited commit 2c3f744 while that commit was still only in a local ref; it is on the branch now, so the claim is checkable rather than promised.

What did not change. The workspace-escape and ancestor-window findings in discussion_r4509387063 and discussion_r4509387068 are unresolved for the reason each thread says: closing them needs production lines in the two writers and two decisions about the exported surface and the file-safety contract, and this PR cannot take production lines at 1,283 counted executable lines against a 500 limit. Both are with the owner of those contracts, priced where I could price them (the cheapest shape of the staging-mode fix — failing closed when the staged file's mode copy fails — measured at +1 counted line on this head, 1,283 → 1,284; the test for it costs nothing because test paths are not charged). The split-or-exclusion question stays with a maintainer: see 6735172376 on this PR and the six-unit plan on #2350 (6735171826), which is still unexecuted, so nothing new opens from it.

_copyTargetMode logged a failed chmod and let the publish proceed at the staged
file's own mode, so a 0o600 credential file could be published widened. The mode
copy runs before the commit rename, so this failure is the reversible one: nothing
is published yet, the teardown unlinks the staged file and the target keeps its
previous content. The sibling writer in services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts
already rethrows for the same property, and its comment explains why the mode has
to be applied rather than inherited. The doc block no longer defends proceeding on
atomicity grounds - the rename makes the publish atomic whatever the mode is - and
the row that pinned the old behaviour now asserts the teardown instead: the target
still holds its previous content and no .new_ staged file is left beside it.

writes to settle in the test, await first so any rejection fails the test. Keep
the existing cleanup and settlement handling.

Review comments at @src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.spec.ts:
- Around line 249-254: Update the release callback in the withFileLock test so
the retargeted lock release records its own event, and assert that event after
the callback completes. Ensure the test fails if withFileLock skips releasing
that lock, while preserving the existing release timing and event checks.

Failed pre-merge checks:
- Regression Evidence:
Add a durability-failure test for a partial edit that confirms a later full
replacement is rejected. Add a test where both post-commit token reads fail,
confirming that the previous observation remains and the durability error is
rethrown.

- Security Boundaries:
Create staging files with restrictive permissions before writing. Preserve the
target mode before publication and fail safely if mode preservation fails. Add a
regression test for a private symlink target in a shared directory.

- Persistence Integrity:
Preserve existing destinations during escaped publication. Undo only confirmed
publications after verifying the staged file identity. Run rollback and cleanup
even when the scope recheck fails, and report retained backup paths. Add
regression tests for all three cases.

- Lifecycle Resource Cleanup:
Retry staging-file cleanup. If cleanup still fails, report the remaining file
and directory paths while preserving the original error and any backup-cleanup
error. Add a test where both commit and staging unlink fail.

Assert release of the retargeted lock.

The second release records no event, so this test passes if withFileLock skips it after the callback. Record and assert that release after the callback. If a regression leaves the lock held, a later writer can encounter it.

The mode copy now fails closed, before the publish. Landed on head 3901239982bc8fa3ad96996539b4845aaa25bb31 (pushed 2026-11-09T11:55Z, a fast-forward from 2c3f744f2).

The owner of this contract ruled on it rather than leaving it to the row: safeWriteText.ts:682-699 reads the target's mode and rethrows unless the target is simply absent, and its comment at :691-694 says why (openSync's creation mode is narrowed by the umask), while safeWriteJson.ts logged a failed copy and proceeded. Two primitives, one property, two contracts - and the JSON writer is the side that stores credentials. The doc block that defended proceeding on the ground that the replacement protocol rather than the mode makes the write atomic has been rewritten rather than preserved: that is true about atomicity and says nothing about confidentiality, and the rename makes the publish atomic whatever the mode ends up being, so atomicity is not a property a mode copy can supply or withhold. The doc now separates the three outcomes and says which one is fatal and why: aborting before the commit rename publishes nothing, the teardown at :514-529 unlinks the staged file and the target still holds its previous content, while publishing at the staged mode has already made a 0o600 file readable by anyone who can read the directory and leaves it that way until the next write happens to copy the mode again.

What the commit costs. One counted executable line. git diff against the head is src/utils/safeWriteJson.ts +20/-4 and src/utils/__tests__/safeWriteJson.test.ts +30/-13, and the only executable change in the production file is throw chmodError after the chmod-failure log; everything else in it is comment. Measured with the gate's own buildManifest (source via git show, per-path diffs --unified=0, entries from --name-status -z --find-renames), base 5319fe91fb0caf4aa4ec66aac68fa03744ebbc23:

5319fe91fb...2c3f744f2  extension has 1283 changed executable lines (limit 500)
5319fe91fb...390123998  extension has 1284 changed executable lines (limit 500)

CI reached the same sentence on its own: job 129145340162 (run 42612844541, completed 11:56:30Z), log line 1845, then Process completed with exit code 1 at line 1846. The honest number for this head is therefore 1,284 against 500, and it is over cap under both readings - 1,284 against the merge base with main, and 632 as an increment over 2357's head d6fa7117e0 (two-dot; 631 at the previous head), which is a planning number rather than a promise because 2357 and 2359 are siblings against main and the merge resolution may differ from the plain diff. Test paths are not charged, so the row below costs 0.

The row. The head did have a row for this path - logs and still publishes when the staged file's mode cannot be set - but it pinned the old contract, so it was rewritten rather than added. It is now aborts before the publish when the staged file's mode cannot be set and it asserts all three things the ruling asked for: the write rejects with the chmod error, the target still holds the content it had before ({ before: true }), and no .new_ staged file is left beside it, which is the part that makes this a teardown and not a rollback. Negative control, run in the same worktree on the same pinned interpreter (v22.23.4): with throw chmodError taken back out and nothing else changed, the row fails at its first assertion with AssertionError: promise resolved "undefined" instead of rejecting; put the line back and it passes. The whole misc lane is green with the change (121 files, 2,136 tests, 17 skipped), as are the consumer groups in the other lanes that publish through this writer (core: guardedWrite.spec.ts, TaskHistoryStore.spec.ts, importExport.spec.ts, FileContextTracker.spec.ts - 159 tests; services: safeWriteText.spec.ts, McpHub.spec.ts, McpHub.settingsCreation.integration.spec.ts, cache-manager.spec.ts - 190 tests). eslint with --max-warnings=0, prettier and tsc --noEmit -p . are exit 0 and src/eslint-suppressions.json is byte-unchanged.

On the availability worry, measured rather than argued. Every successful publish through this writer calls fs.chmod on the staged file for real, and the lane that exercises it here is running on Windows (win32) and passes, so the chmod call itself is not what breaks on that platform; the failure branch is driven through the fs/promises mock on all platforms because forcing a real EPERM needs privileges a developer box and a runner neither have, which is the same reason the neighbouring stat row is mocked. I am not claiming this commit's Windows arm is green yet: at the one arms read I took (11:59Z) platform-unit-test (windows-latest) was still in_progress on this head, and the only completed failure is mutation-diff above. I will re-read that arm by check-run id rather than infer it.

One thing this fix creates that the plan must carry. src/utils/safeWriteJson.ts was the same blob at both sibling PRs - f4edc7ee9c8c168da844730742a54f682bd00a70 at 2357's d6fa7117e0 and at this PR's 2c3f744f2 (and at the refs/tmp/2357-cut/u3-jsonwriter cut 473cacf7772a). This commit makes this PR's copy d09092fab0d1129b3fe4a5a2b5f91d3fbc3ece18, so 2357 now carries the stale version of the function. Whichever of the two merges first has to force the other to drop its copy, and the same is true of the json-writer unit in the split plan. That is recorded as a named row on #2350 against u3-jsonwriter (priced at this +1 line, with the test at 0) so the unit inherits the decision instead of relitigating it.

- Around line 606-613: Update the staged-file chmod failure handling in the
safe-write flow to allow publication only when the staged file’s actual
permissions are verified safe; retain fail-closed behavior when they are unsafe
or cannot be verified. Preserve the existing cleanup behavior for files that are
not published, and do not assume chmod failure alone establishes that the staged
permissions are safe.
- Around line 577-591: Update the documentation for _flushFileToDisk to state
that it syncs the staged file before the commit rename. Do not imply that it
syncs the containing directory or guarantees durability of the directory entry.

Failed pre-merge checks:
- Description check:
1. Add a 'Closes: #<issue>' line under 'Related GitHub Issue' that links the
approved issue for this unit. Remove the internal plan references from that
section if they are not the approved issue. 2. Expand 'Description' with the
guardedWrite design: the observation-based guards for create, update, and edit;
the per-path FIFO queue; the shared file lock; and the post-publish observation
refresh. 3. Update the 'Test Procedure' to list the exact commands to repeat the
checks, or say which are CI-only. 4. Mark the Pre-Submission Checklist items
that apply, and state why the Visual Snapshot and Video items do not apply. 5.
Fill in 'Get in Touch' with a Discord username or remove the empty section. 6.
Rewrite the prose in ASD-STE100 style: short sentences, active voice, no
contractions, and one idea per sentence.

- Regression Evidence:

replacement is rejected. Add a test where both post-commit token reads fail,
verifying that the previous observation remains and the durability error is
rethrown.

- Security Boundaries:
Create staged files with restrictive permissions before writing. Preserve the

* does not silently widen it. Two of the three outcomes below are deliberately not
* fatal and one is, and the difference is what each failure leaves behind, not how
* atomic the publish is: the commit rename makes the publish atomic whatever the mode
* ends up being, so atomicity is not a property a mode copy can supply or withhold.
* A missing target has no mode to copy, and a mode that cannot be read says nothing
* about the target's confidentiality - both proceed on the staged file's own mode and
* say so in the log. A mode that was read and could not be set aborts the write,
* because this step runs before the commit rename: aborting here publishes nothing,
* the teardown unlinks the staged file and the target still holds its previous
* content, whereas publishing at the staged mode has already made a 0o600 credential
* file readable by anyone who can read the directory, and it stays that way until the
* next write. The sibling writer in services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts takes the
* same position for the same property: it rethrows a mode it could not read unless the
* target is simply absent, and applies the mode to the descriptor because openSync's
* creation mode is narrowed by the process umask.

Correct the flush documentation.

_flushFileToDisk syncs the staged file before rename, not the containing directory. The current comment may lead maintainers to assume the directory entry is synced.

Suggested fix

- * Syncs the directory that holds a freshly committed file.
+ * Flushes the staged file to storage before it is committed.

Allow safe overwrites when staged chmod is denied.

On a group-writable Linux exFAT mount owned by another user, chmod can fail even for a newly staged file. Task-message overwrites then fail and leave history stale. Permit publication when the staged permissions are verified safe, while retaining fail-closed behavior for unsafe permissions.

Review comment at @src/utils/safeWriteJson.ts around lines 606 - 613:
Update the staged-file chmod failure handling in the safe-write flow to allow
publication only when the staged file’s actual permissions are verified safe;
retain fail-closed behavior when they are unsafe or cannot be verified. Preserve
the existing cleanup behavior for files that are not published, and do not
assume chmod failure alone establishes that the staged permissions are safe.

Supersede one number, and one reading of it. At head 3901239982bc8fa3ad96996539b4845aaa25bb31 the mutation gate's own sentence is 1,284 changed executable lines against the 500 limit (check run 129145340162); the 1,283 quoted in 6739046271 is the number at the previous head 2c3f744f2, not at this one. And per the branch owner's reading of Protect Main (ruleset 15494382 lists six required contexts and mutation-diff is not among them), this red arm does not block the queue or strip coderabbit-review-active - it is a reviewability argument for maintainers, not a wall. Surviving mutants have never been measured on this PR: the width gate aborts buildManifest before any mutant verdict exists, so nothing here should be read as mutation-clean.
