The Docker sandbox previously used --read-only on the root filesystem and
noexec on /tmp. This broke 30+ skills that need to install packages:
- npm install -g (codex, claude-code, mcporter, powerpoint)
- pip install (20+ mlops/media/productivity skills)
- apt install (minecraft-modpack-server, ml-paper-writing)
- Build tools that compile in /tmp (pip wheels, node-gyp)
The container is already fully isolated from the host. Industry standard
(E2B, Docker Sandboxes, OpenAI Codex) does not use --read-only — the
container itself is the security boundary.
Retained security hardening:
- --cap-drop ALL (zero capabilities)
- --security-opt no-new-privileges (no escalation)
- --pids-limit 256 (no fork bombs)
- Size-limited tmpfs for /tmp, /var/tmp, /run
- nosuid on all tmpfs mounts
- noexec on /var/tmp and /run (rarely need exec there)
- Resource limits (CPU, memory, disk)
- Ephemeral containers (destroyed after use)
Fixes#189.
logger.error() only records the exception message string, silently
discarding the stack trace. Switch to logger.exception() which
automatically appends the full traceback to the log output.
Without this change, when a tool handler raises an unexpected error
the log shows only the exception type and message, making it
impossible to determine which line caused the failure or trace
through nested calls.
Updated documentation within terminal_tool.py to emphasize the appropriate use of foreground and background processes. Enhanced descriptions for the timeout setting and background execution to guide users towards optimal configurations for scripts, builds, and long-running tasks. Adjusted the default timeout value from 60 to 180 seconds for improved handling of longer operations.
Updated the environment variables for subprocess execution in the ProcessRegistry class to set PYTHONUNBUFFERED to "1". This change ensures that output from Python scripts is unbuffered, allowing for real-time visibility of progress during background execution. Adjusted both the pty and background process spawning methods to use the new environment configuration.
Block dangerous HA service domains (shell_command, command_line,
python_script, pyscript, hassio, rest_command) that allow arbitrary
code execution or SSRF. Add regex validation for entity_id to prevent
path traversal attacks. 17 new tests covering both security features.
Two fixes to the subagent progress display from PR #186:
1. Task index prefix: show 1-indexed prefix ([1], [2], ...) for ALL
tasks in batch mode (task_count > 1). Single tasks get no prefix.
Previously task 0 had no prefix while others did, making batch
output confusing.
2. Completion indicator: use spinner.print_above() instead of raw
print() for per-task completion lines (✓ [1/2] ...). Raw print
collided with the active spinner, mushing the completion text
onto the spinner line. Now prints cleanly above.
Added task_count parameter to _build_child_progress_callback and
_run_single_child. Updated tests accordingly.
When subagents run via delegate_task, the user now sees real-time
progress instead of silence:
CLI: tree-view activity lines print above the delegation spinner

Gateway (Telegram/Discord): batched progress summaries sent every
5 tool calls to avoid message spam. Remaining tools flushed on
subagent completion.
Changes:
- agent/display.py: add KawaiiSpinner.print_above() to print
status lines above an active spinner without disrupting animation.
Uses captured stdout (self._out) so it works inside the child's
redirect_stdout(devnull).
- tools/delegate_tool.py: add _build_child_progress_callback()
that creates a per-child callback relaying tool calls and
thinking events to the parent's spinner (CLI) or progress
queue (gateway). Each child gets its own callback instance,
so parallel subagents don't share state. Includes _flush()
for gateway batch completion.
- run_agent.py: fire tool_progress_callback with '_thinking'
event when the model produces text content. Guarded by
_delegate_depth > 0 so only subagents fire this (prevents
gateway spam from main agent). REASONING_SCRATCHPAD/think/
reasoning XML tags are stripped before display.
Tests: 21 new tests covering print_above, callback builder,
thinking relay, SCRATCHPAD filtering, batching, flush, thread
isolation, delegate_depth guard, and prefix handling.
- 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.
- Introduce a new test suite for the `redact_sensitive_text` function, covering various sensitive data formats including API keys, tokens, and environment variables.
- Ensure that sensitive information is properly masked in logs and outputs while non-sensitive data remains unchanged.
- Add tests for different scenarios including JSON fields, authorization headers, and environment variable assignments.
- Implement a redacting formatter for logging to enhance security during log output.
- Enhanced Codex model discovery by fetching available models from the API, with fallback to local cache and defaults.
- Updated the context compressor's summary target tokens to 2500 for improved performance.
- Added external credential detection for Codex CLI to streamline authentication.
- Refactored various components to ensure consistent handling of authentication and model selection across the application.
os.setsid, os.killpg, and os.getpgid do not exist on Windows and raise
AttributeError on import or first call. This breaks the terminal tool,
code execution sandbox, process registry, and WhatsApp bridge on Windows.
Added _IS_WINDOWS platform guard in all four affected files, following
the pattern documented in CONTRIBUTING.md. On Windows, preexec_fn is
set to None and process termination falls back to proc.terminate() /
proc.kill() instead of process group signals.
Files changed:
- tools/environments/local.py (3 call sites)
- tools/process_registry.py (2 call sites)
- tools/code_execution_tool.py (3 call sites)
- gateway/platforms/whatsapp.py (3 call sites)
- unified_search and GitHubSource.search dedup: replace naive
`trust_level == "trusted"` check with ranked comparison so
"builtin" results are never overwritten by "trusted" or "community"
- Add 43 unit tests covering _parse_frontmatter_quick, trust_level_for,
HubLockFile CRUD, TapsManager ops, LobeHub _convert_to_skill_md,
unified_search dedup (with regression test), and append_audit_log
The regex `ignore\s+(previous|all|...)\s+instructions` only matched
a single keyword between 'ignore' and 'instructions'. Phrases like
'ignore all prior instructions' bypassed the scanner entirely.
Changed to `ignore\s+(?:\w+\s+)*(previous|all|...)\s+instructions`
to allow arbitrary words before the keyword.
