From b11e876b830a473f54662df4d4198eb9897e7cb0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Shurafa Date: Tue, 7 Jul 2026 16:52:55 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 1/4] fix: bound codex verify with the shared timeout ladder, seal diff injection MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit C-3: the codex-verify branch only wrapped in GNU timeout, leaving the phase most prone to hanging unbounded on stock macOS. The 3-tier runner selection (timeout/gtimeout/perl) now lives in lib as select_timeout_runner/run_with_timeout_runner, consumed by both invoke_agent_with_timeout and the verify branch — one source, since copy-paste divergence is how C-1 happened. C-4: raw diffs substituted into a bare 3-backtick fence could close it early and inject verifier instructions ('output APPROVED'). The fence is now computed longer than the diff's longest backtick run, both templates frame the diff as untrusted data, and all prompt builders substitute through run-unique nonce sentinels — ordering alone cannot stop earlier-substituted values from re-injecting the {DIFF} placeholder (found by cross-vendor review). Reliability sim 17->28 scenarios incl. CRLF, stat/plan/retry injection round-trips.

Close them so a runner failure can never be mistaken for a passing review and untrusted git output can never stall or escape its fence: - compute_diff_fence was O(N^2) (31.6s for a 20k-backtick line): a crafted diff could wedge the verifier. Rewrite as a single awk pass with a doubling fence build; semantics unchanged (run+1, min 3). - The perl timeout leg killed only the direct child, orphaning the hung codex/claude grandchild behind a `bash -c` wrapper. setpgrp the child and TERM/grace/KILL the whole group on alarm. - The same leg reported exit 0 for a child killed by a signal outside the alarm path, laundering a crash into success. Propagate 128+signum. - A runner infra failure (fork=125, exec 126/127) fell through the verify path's 124-only guard toward verdict parsing. Abort hard, logged, without parsing the verdict file. - PHASE_TIMEOUT was used unvalidated on the codex-verify path, where 0 or garbage silently disables the bound. Route both paths through one shared validator (require_phase_timeout). - {DIFF_STAT} is the same untrusted source as {DIFF} but was unfenced. Fence it too, over the combined max, in both review templates. - Soften an overstated nonce comment; the scheme was verified sound. - reliability-simulation gains guards for each fix and a counted SKIP so macOS CI (no GNU timeout/gtimeout) goes green on the perl leg instead of a permanent FAIL.
