Fixes real findings the develop -> main promotion PR (#1041)'s own fresh review pass caught on host-setup/menu.sh and host-setup/README.md that the incremental feature-branch rounds in #1040 missed, since the promotion diff re-reads the whole file rather than an incremental change.

  • A failed ref fetch/checkout left an unmarked partial hub clone, blocking every retry until manually cleared. The ownership marker now lands right after the initial clone succeeds.
  • check_skills_dist reported a misleading "stale" message plus Done on a real execution failure (missing python3, a build_dist.py crash). hub_python's prerequisite failure now returns 127, distinguishable from build_dist.py --check's own 0/1 contract.
  • Downstream carry options (12/13) were shown and always failed in a non-default --ref session, with no indication why. They're now refused up front with the actual cause, and hidden from the menu entirely at a non-default ref.
  • --dir /tmp/.. bypassed the root-directory refusal (it isn't the literal string /, but resolves to it). The value is now canonicalized first.
  • The README's "only host tasks show with no checkout" claim was wrong; hub tasks also work standalone since they self-fetch.
  • Three no-semicolon-in-prose violations in error messages, the same class of gap already closed once for the help text (the automated prose gate scans comments, not arbitrary string literals).

Declined two findings with evidence in the PR thread (both recur against this file's own established precedent from #1040's review, and one misapplies GOVERNANCE.md's write-suppression rule to a plain read).

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Standalone setups can display and run hub tasks by fetching the hub repository when needed.
    • Non-hub checkouts show downstream and host tasks.
    • Downstream options are available only when using the default reference.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved handling of prerequisite, skills distribution, and repository fetch failures.
    • Carry actions now reject non-default references.
    • Directory validation handles canonical paths and prevents selecting the root directory.
    • Validation distinguishes stale generated content from actual errors with separate status codes.

The develop -> main promotion PR's own review re-read the whole file
fresh and found five real gaps the incremental feature-branch rounds
missed:
- A failed ref fetch or checkout left an unmarked partial clone at the
cache path (the marker was only written after every step succeeded),
so every retry then rejected that tree as somebody else's and blocked
until the user manually cleared it. The marker now lands right after
the initial clone, the point the tree genuinely becomes this run's to
manage, and a later step failing no longer poisons the cache.
- check_skills_dist collapsed every nonzero result from hub_python into
"stale distribution" and then returned success regardless, so a
missing python3 or a real build_dist.py crash reported a misleading
stale message followed by "Done". hub_python's own prerequisite
failure now returns 127, bash's own "command not found" convention,
distinct from build_dist.py's own documented 0-clean/1-stale contract,
and anything outside those two now reports as the task failure it is.
- carry_action offered options 12 and 13 in a non-default --ref session
and let them always fail deep inside carry.py's own freshness check,
with no indication --ref was the reason. Both are now refused up
front with the actual cause, and the menu stops showing them at all
once --ref is not main, since they cannot work there regardless of a
downstream repo being detected.
- --dir accepted a path like "/tmp/.." that is not the literal string
"/" but resolves to it the moment anything opens a path under it,
bypassing the root-directory refusal. The value is now canonicalized
before that check.
- The README claimed only host tasks show with no repository checkout
at all, when the hub tasks also show and work there, fetching the hub
themselves; only the downstream tasks actually need one.
Also fixed three genuine no-semicolon-in-prose violations in error
messages the automated prose gate does not scan (it reads comments, not
arbitrary string literals), the same class of gap already closed once
for the help text.
Declined two findings, with evidence in the PR thread: the "duplicated
hub policy" and "file header exceeds one line" pair recurred against
this file's own already-established precedent (bootstrap.sh's own
multi-line header, and no such rule in CODESTYLE.md or the shell-
codestyle skill), and a "git config read failure reads the same as an
absent remote" finding cites GOVERNANCE.md's write-suppression rule
against a plain read, where an absent remote is a normal, common state
rather than a failure to hide.
Verified: shellcheck, shfmt, prose_lint.py --diff, and docker_lint.py
(markdownlint, cspell, editorconfig-checker, shellcheck, shfmt) all
clean; the existing 852 scripts/tests/ pass unchanged; and, via a pty
harness, that a failed non-existent-ref fetch now leaves a cache the
very next run can clean up and retry successfully (previously blocked),
and that carry options no longer appear in a non-default --ref session
run from a downstream repo.

High-Level Assessment

The current approach is appropriate: ownership is recorded at the earliest safe point, documented tool exit codes are decoded explicitly, and carry eligibility is enforced both in menu visibility and action execution. Centralizing these checks elsewhere would add indirection without improving safety for this single-script workflow.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The host setup menu now coordinates locked hub fetching, ownership and prerequisite statuses, task-result classification, ref-sensitive actions, menu visibility, and canonical directory validation. build_dist.py --check now separates validation failures from stale generated distributions and adds regression coverage.

Changes

Host setup menu

Layer / File(s)Summary
Hub setup and prerequisite handling
host-setup/menu.sh, host-setup/README.md
fetch_hub serializes concurrent fetches and creates the ownership marker immediately after cloning. hub_python returns status 127 when python3 is missing. The README describes standalone and checkout-specific tasks.
Task results and ref-based availability
host-setup/menu.sh
check_skills_dist distinguishes clean, stale, and failed results. Carry operations reject non-default refs, and downstream options require a downstream checkout and the default ref.
Canonical directory validation
host-setup/menu.sh
--dir paths are canonicalized before validation, and the canonical root path is rejected.

Distribution validation

Layer / File(s)Summary
Distinct distribution check statuses
scripts/build_dist.py, scripts/tests/test_build_dist.py, scripts/README.md
build_dist.py --check returns status 2 for validation or filesystem failures and status 1 for stale generated trees. Documentation and regression tests cover symlink and OSError failures.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk:🟡 Moderate · up to 7398f

The PR improves hub setup and failure handling, but a marker-write failure can still leave a checkout unusable while reporting success, and one supported-platform test can fail on Windows before skipping. Merge should wait for these bounded issues to be fixed or explicitly accepted.

Action required

1. Crashes still report stale✓ Resolved🐞 Bug≡ Correctness
Description
check_skills_dist treats every exit code 1 as a stale distribution, but Python also exits 1 for
uncaught runtime failures in build_dist.py, so a read/hash I/O failure still prints the stale
message and the menu subsequently prints Done. The new 127 handling fixes a missing interpreter
only; it does not satisfy the stated handling of a build_dist.py crash.

PR explicitly claims crash handling, but exit code 1 still conflates runtime failures with stale
status.

PR-#1008

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence
The menu maps status 1 directly to the stale informational path. Although build_dist.py explicitly
returns 1 for stale state, operations in is_stale such as digest reads are outside a general
exception handler, and the top-level sys.exit(main()) lets an uncaught Python exception terminate
with status 1 as well; the interactive loop then considers the menu action successful because the
case branch returns 0.

Remediation recommended

2. Marker enables checkout race✓ Resolved🐞 Bug☼ Reliability
Description
fetch_hub now marks the shared $DIR/hub checkout as removable before its non-default ref fetch
and checkout finish, so a concurrent menu process can pass remove_unowned_hub_check and delete
that active tree. This can fail or corrupt either session's fetch and checkout operations.
Code

host-setup/menu.sh[R103-104]

+ # Marked as ours the moment the clone lands rather than only once every later step also succeeds, so a failure below still leaves a tree remove_unowned_hub_check will clean up on the next run instead of blocking every retry as somebody else's.+ touch "$(marker_path)"
Relevance

●●● Strong

Specific concurrent deletion race is plausible; no rejection precedent found, and this PR’s stated
fix creates the risky window.

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence
All invocations use the fixed $DIR/hub path. Once the new marker exists,
remove_unowned_hub_check permits another invocation to continue, which immediately runs `rm -rf
"$DIR/hub"`, while the first invocation may still be executing its later fetch and checkout; no lock
or per-invocation ownership identity protects the tree.

Comment threadhost-setup/menu.sh
…Hub Cache Fetch
Fixes two real findings from PR #1042's own review, both confirmed by
two independent reviewers on the first one:
- check_skills_dist's exit-127 handling only caught a missing python3.
build_dist.py --check itself still returned 1 for both the stale
result and a real execution failure (a symlink under .agents/skills/,
or in principle any uncaught exception), so a genuine crash still
printed the misleading stale message followed by "Done". Fixed at the
source instead of working around it: --check now returns 2 for that
failure, distinct from 0 (clean) and 1 (stale) by its own documented
contract, with a new test covering it and the docstring, --check help
text, and scripts/README.md updated to match. Every existing consumer
(CI's validate action, this menu) only ever branches on zero versus
nonzero, so nothing else needed to change.
- The marker-timing fix in the prior commit closed one race (a failed
fetch blocking every retry) by opening a narrower one a reviewer
caught: marking $DIR/hub as owned right after the clone, before a
non-default ref's fetch and checkout finish, let a second menu.sh
process sharing the same --dir pass remove_unowned_hub_check and
delete that still-active checkout. fetch_hub now holds an flock on a
sibling hub.lock for its clone-through-checkout sequence, so a second
process blocks there instead of racing to remove or reuse a tree the
first one is still building. Scoped to the fetch itself, the specific
race described, not the full detect-through-cleanup lifecycle a
heavier fix would need.
Verified: shellcheck, shfmt, prose_lint.py --diff, ruff check, ruff
format --check, pyright, and docker_lint.py (markdownlint, cspell,
editorconfig-checker, shellcheck, shfmt) all clean; the existing
852 scripts/tests/ plus one new one (853 total) pass; and, with a
standalone driver reproducing the exact exec-fd-then-flock pattern this
commit uses, that a second lock acquirer genuinely blocks until the
first releases rather than racing it.

Comment threadhost-setup/menu.sh Outdated
Comment threadscripts/build_dist.py
Fixes two more real findings from PR #1042's own review, and a
regression caught while testing the first fix before it could reach
review at all:
- The prior commit's flock never closed its own file descriptor, so
the lock stayed held for the rest of the process, not just the fetch
it was meant to protect. Since interactive_menu keeps that process
alive through an entire session, one hub task effectively locked out
every other menu.sh sharing the same --dir until the first session
quit, the opposite of what the lock exists for. First tried a
function-local RETURN trap to close it on every path out; testing
the fix immediately surfaced that bash does not actually scope a
RETURN trap to the function that set it, so it re-fired on whatever
function returned next, against an already-unset local, and crashed
the whole menu on the very next task. fetch_hub is now a thin wrapper
that opens and closes the descriptor around a single call to the
actual fetch logic (fetch_hub_locked), which needs no awareness of
the lock at all.
- scripts/build_dist.py --check's real-failure catch only covered
ValueError, but is_stale() reads several files beyond the one call
already wrapped in its own try/except, and a permissions problem or a
file removed out from under it raises OSError there instead, which
would have still surfaced as the ambiguous exit 1 this whole fix
exists to resolve. Now caught alongside ValueError, with a new test
and the docstring, help text, and scripts/README.md updated to name
both cases.
Verified: shellcheck, shfmt, prose_lint.py --diff, ruff check, ruff
format --check, pyright, and docker_lint.py (markdownlint, cspell,
editorconfig-checker, shellcheck, shfmt) all clean; the existing
853 scripts/tests/ plus one new one (854 total) pass; and, via a pty
harness, that a live probe against the lock file reads free the moment
a hub task finishes rather than for the rest of the session, and that
two hub tasks run back to back in one session no longer crash on the
second one's return.

Comment threadscripts/build_dist.py
Fixes a real gap CodeRabbit found in the OSError fix from the prior
commit: is_stale() already caught OSError from its own manifest read
and converted it to the ordinary stale result (True), before that
error ever had a chance to reach the broader except clause main() just
gained. An unreadable manifest still reported as stale, exit 1, exactly
the ambiguity this whole fix exists to close, contradicting the
docstring, help text, and scripts/README.md this same round already
updated to promise otherwise.
Narrowed the manifest read's own catch to JSONDecodeError only, a
corrupted or hand-edited manifest being the genuinely stale case
is_stale() exists to catch. OSError now propagates out to --check's own
handler, which already returns 2 for it. Added a real (unmocked)
regression test using actual file permissions, per the review's own
ask, since the existing OSError coverage mocked is_stale() directly and
would not have caught this exact gap; skips itself under a root uid,
where the permission bits it depends on are ignored.
Verified: ruff check, ruff format --check, pyright, docker_lint.py
(markdownlint, cspell) clean; the existing 854 scripts/tests/ plus the
new one (855 total) pass.

os.geteuid() does not exist on Windows, so the new unreadable-manifest
regression test from the prior commit would crash with AttributeError
there before it could even reach its own root-user skip, and chmod
does not carry POSIX unreadable-file semantics on that platform anyway.
This repo's default platform assumption is Windows + macOS + Linux
(GOVERNANCE.md "Supported Development Platforms"), so scripts/tests/
needs to run cleanly there too. Guards on os.name != "posix" first.
