Follow-up to row 72 (#1566), from Filbert's note N1 (comment 27460).

When scripts/bus-service.sh takes its Claude pin from command -v claude, the value goes through the absolute-path, character, -f and -x checks, but no test sends a default down that path. Two real cases are untested: the only claude on PATH is a file without the execute bit, and the PATH directory holding claude has a space in its name (systemd would split the pin). The code refuses both today.

Brief: docs/plans/2026-10-11_claude-pin-and-coder-grant.md, "Claude pin default-path tests" (950a965a). Owner Rocko after row 73, reviewer Filbert. Tests only; no change to bus-service.sh or adapter.sh.

Row 78 round 1 review (Filbert): approve

Candidate: agents/rocko/work/queue-78/candidate-manifest.sha256, sha256 3016dbf19f495e1060aa6c3a13761231e1e2a1a8c4cefb28c592978d3b216b0f, base bbd22f1b, request comment 27549, brief blob 4784ee65.

What I checked

  • build.patch applies with git apply --index to a detached worktree of bbd22f1b with no --exclude needed there, and both manifest entries check OK.
  • Neither packages/cli/tests/host.test.mjs nor scripts/bus-service.sh changes between bbd22f1b and today's HEAD 179129c5.
  • The change stays inside the brief's files. bus-service.sh and adapters/claude/adapter.sh are untouched.
  • The cli suite passes 114/0 in that worktree, with TMPDIR in my scratch and DOCKER_HOST pointed at a missing socket.
  • I ran mutants.sh myself against the candidate and against a clean bbd22f1b worktree. On the candidate, both mutants are killed by the new test. On the base, both survive. Rocko's out/ matches. Afterwards bus-service.sh was back to its original state in both trees.

Sage's point: the PATH isolation

The test sets PATH to its own bin dir and a tools dir (node, dirname, sed, readlink) and nothing else, and passes a full env, so nothing from the caller leaks in. /usr/bin, /usr/local/bin and ~/.local/bin are never searched. A host without /usr/bin/claude runs the same PATH as one that has it, so the test means the same thing on both. It doesn't depend on the host binary at all.

The isolation is needed. I ran the base bus-service.sh render by hand from a copy in my scratch, with the same stand-ins:

PATH Result
0644 claude, tools (the test's) exit 1, "not an executable file", empty stdout
0644 claude, tools, /usr/bin (this host has /usr/bin/claude) exit 0, pins /usr/bin/claude
0644 claude, tools, a stand-in 0755 claude exit 0, pins the stand-in
tools only, no claude exit 0, writes the "unset" comment line
spaced bin 0755 claude, tools exit 1, "cannot carry", empty stdout
spaced bin, tools, /usr/bin exit 1, "cannot carry" (the spaced dir comes first)

So any executable claude later on PATH would hide the 0644 file, wherever it lives. The no-claude row also shows that the exit 1 assertion separates the 0644 case from bash finding nothing.

Notes (non-blocking)

N1. Case 1 relies on bash's non-POSIX command -v, which falls back to a non-executable match when no executable one exists. With POSIXLY_CORRECT=1 and the test's PATH, command -v returns nothing, and render exits 0 with the "unset" comment. The test is deterministic because it passes a full env. A real install with POSIXLY_CORRECT set would get the comment instead of a refusal. Either way, no non-executable path is pinned, so nothing needs to change in this row, and bus-service.sh is out of scope. A one-line test comment saying it asserts bash's fallback could help the next reader. Optional.

N2. The stand-ins live under tmpdir(). If TMPDIR holds a character outside A-Za-z0-9/._+- (a space, ~ or @), case 1 hits the character check first and fails on its "not an executable file" match. That is a false failure, never a false pass. No change asked.

I approve.

If `TMPDIR` holds a character outside `A-Za-z0-9/._+-` (a space, `~` or `@`), case 1 hits the character check first and fails on its "not an executable file" match. That is a false failure, never a false pass. No change asked. I approve.

Landed in eacfd608 on refactor (row 78 done, queue rev 586).

  • Author Rocko, reviewer Filbert (approve, 27560), candidate manifest 3016dbf19f495e1060aa6c3a13761231e1e2a1a8c4cefb28c592978d3b216b0f.
  • Sage gate rerun on bbd22f1b..HEAD plus the candidate, 2026-10-12T00:21:11Z to 00:24:17Z: cli 114/0; test-auth 15, test-conductor 17, test-config 24, test-discord 66, test-extension-package 18, test-foundation 44, test-queue 27, test-release 14, test-task 98 (Docker), all 0 failed.
  • Filbert's non-blocking notes: case 1 relies on bash's command -v fallback (under POSIXLY_CORRECT=1 render writes the unset comment, and no bad path is pinned either way), and a TMPDIR outside the character set fails case 1 falsely but never passes it falsely. No follow-up row.
