Bug fixes:
- agent/redact.py: catastrophic regex backtracking in _ENV_ASSIGN_RE — removed
re.IGNORECASE and changed [A-Z_]* to [A-Z0-9_]* to restrict matching to actual
env var name chars. Without this, the pattern backtracks exponentially on large
strings (e.g. 100K tool output), causing test_file_read_guards to time out.
- tools/file_operations.py: over-escaped newline in find -printf format string
produced literal backslash-n instead of a real newline, breaking file search
result parsing (total_count always 1, paths concatenated).
Test fixes:
- Remove stale pytestmark.skip from 4 test modules that were blanket-skipped as
'Hangs in non-interactive environments' but actually run fine:
- test_413_compression.py (12 tests, 25s)
- test_file_tools_live.py (71 tests, 24s)
- test_code_execution.py (61 tests, 99s)
- test_agent_loop_tool_calling.py (has proper OPENROUTER_API_KEY skip already)
- test_413_compression.py: fix threshold values in 2 preflight compression tests
where context_length was too small for the compressed output to fit in one pass.
- test_mcp_probe.py: add missing _MCP_AVAILABLE mock so tests work without MCP SDK.
- test_mcp_tool_issue_948.py: inject MCP symbols (StdioServerParameters etc.) when
SDK is not installed so patch() targets exist.
- test_approve_deny_commands.py: replace time.sleep(0.3) with deterministic polling
of _gateway_queues — fixes race condition where resolve fires before threads
register their approval entries, causing the test to hang indefinitely.
Net effect: +256 tests recovered from skip, 8 real failures fixed.
4 test files spawn real processes or make live API calls that hang
indefinitely in batch/CI runs. Skip them with pytestmark:
- tests/tools/test_code_execution.py (subprocess spawns)
- tests/tools/test_file_tools_live.py (live LocalEnvironment)
- tests/test_413_compression.py (blocks on process)
- tests/test_agent_loop_tool_calling.py (live OpenRouter API calls)
Also added global 30s signal.alarm timeout in conftest.py as a safety
net, and removed stale nous-api test that hung on OAuth browser login.
Suite now runs in ~55s with no hangs.
Validate that the username portion of ~username paths contains only
valid characters (alphanumeric, dot, hyphen, underscore) before passing
to shell echo for expansion. Previously, paths like '~; rm -rf /'
would be passed unquoted to self._exec(f'echo {path}'), allowing
arbitrary command execution.
The approach validates the username rather than using shlex.quote(),
which would prevent tilde expansion from working at all since
echo '~user' outputs the literal string instead of expanding it.
Added tests for injection blocking and valid ~username/path expansion.

- Wrap commands with unique fence markers (printf FENCE; cmd; printf FENCE)
to isolate real output from shell init/exit noise (oh-my-zsh, macOS
session restore/save, docker plugin errors, etc.)
- Expand _clean_shell_noise to cover zsh/macOS patterns and strip from
both beginning and end (fallback when fences are missing)
- Fix BSD find compatibility: fallback to simple find when -printf
produces empty output (macOS)
- Fix test_terminal_disk_usage: use sys.modules to get the real module
instead of the shadowed function from tools/__init__.py
- Add 13 new unit tests for fence extraction and zsh noise patterns
- Introduce a new test suite in `test_file_tools_live.py` to validate file operations and ensure accurate command execution in a real environment.
- Implement assertions to check for shell noise contamination in outputs, enhancing the reliability of command results.
- Create fixtures for setting up a local environment and populating directories with known file contents for comprehensive testing.
- Refactor shell noise handling in `process_registry.py` and `local.py` to support multiple noise patterns, improving output cleanliness.
