fix(store): gate the git-pull update path - #508
Conversation
`install_plugin` gates every route that re-downloads, `_reinstall_with_rollback` included. `update_plugin` has one branch that re-downloads nothing: a git checkout pulls in place, installs dependencies, and returns True. A pull could therefore deliver a manifest flooring above this core and nothing would notice until the plugin failed to load — which surfaces as one line in the journal and a display that silently stopped appearing. Checked after the pull rather than before it, for the same reason `_install_plugin_impl` checks after the download: the registry carries no compatibility field, so the incoming floor is only knowable once the new commit is on disk. Undone with `git reset --hard` to the pre-pull commit rather than by removing the directory. This is a live checkout, the old commit is still in the object store, and the reset leaves the user on the exact version they were already running — the same promise `_reinstall_with_rollback` makes, reached by the means this path actually has, with no window where the plugin directory does not exist. An unreadable manifest allows: it is not evidence of a floor. Scope, stated plainly: monorepo plugins install as archives and update through `_reinstall_with_rollback`, so they were already gated. Only registry entries with no `plugin_path` reach this branch. It is closed anyway because the sunset rule in the plugins repo's `08-shared-sports-code.md` names, as condition 3, that the core enforces the floor "at install/update time" — and B6 rests on that being true rather than merely written down. `install_from_url` is still ungated; the tests say so rather than letting the next reader assume otherwise.

Review of the gate found a data-loss path it had introduced, plus two smaller scope errors. All three from CodeRabbit on #508. **The stash failure was load-bearing and was not treated as one.** update_plugin stashes local changes before pulling; when that stash failed or timed out it logged a warning and pulled anyway. That was harmless while nothing ever undid a pull. It is not harmless now: the gate's rollback is `git reset --hard`, which discards uncommitted tracked edits -- exactly the edits the stash existed to protect. A pull does not refuse on a dirty tree as long as the incoming commit touches other files, so the sequence completed silently: pull succeeds, gate refuses, reset takes the user's work with it. update_plugin now returns before pulling unless the tree was already clean or was successfully stashed. Refusing costs an update in a case that had already gone wrong; the alternative costs data. That also makes `--hard` safe by construction in _gate_pulled_commit, and its comment now says so rather than observing it in passing. Pinned by test_a_failed_stash_stops_the_update_before_pulling, which writes a local edit, forces the stash to fail, and asserts both that HEAD did not move and that the edit is still on disk. Verified it bites: with the new guard removed the file comes back as `class P: pass`, the edit gone. **_HAS_GIT could take the module down instead of skipping it.** With no git on PATH, subprocess.run raises FileNotFoundError, and this runs at import time -- before skipif can act, so the whole file errors rather than skipping. Now catches OSError. **The doc overclaimed the gate's reach.** It said the floor is enforced on "every route that installs or updates" while the same passage notes install_from_url is ungated. Both spots now scope the claim to registry-managed installs and the two supported update paths, and name the sideload exception. Full suite 3720 passed, 6 skipped.

Thanks — all three were valid. Fixed in 45d9121. The stash one was real, and it was mine.

Docs scope — also correct, and self-contradictory as written: the sunset-rule row claimed "every route that installs or updates" while the passage below it says On the two static-analysis notes attached to those comments ( Full suite |
This PR was opened to say B6 was deliberately held. It has since run, so the document said the opposite of the truth -- which is the exact failure it was written to fix: "a plan that misreports which phase it is in is worse than no plan". Merges current main first (53 commits), which brings in #508's corrections to this same file, then replaces the hold with what happened. **Why the hold lifted is worth recording, because the stated gate was never met.** It asked for evidence of 3.2.0 uptake, and that evidence could not arrive: the core updates by `git pull --rebase`, so release-asset counts cannot measure it, and no store-side telemetry exists. What changed is that the risk the gate protected against was closed directly -- the store now refuses a plugin whose floor exceeds the running core on all three routes in: install_plugin (#431/#433), update_plugin's git branch (#508), and install_from_url (#510). A pre-3.2.0 user cannot receive a sunset plugin at all, so they keep the version they run. Refusal replaced the bundled copy, which is what the copy stood in for. Records what shipped (eight plugins, ~5,800 lines, plugins #346/#349/#350/#351) and the two findings worth carrying to the next module: baseball's fallback was the only one holding orchestration logic the core lacked, and two tests had been leaning on the guard -- soccer's stubbed `src` in a way that shadowed the core, so it had been exercising the frozen copy rather than the shipping class since B5. The remaining-work list is replaced too. Its first item was "nothing on the critical path, B6 is waiting on calendar time", which is no longer true. What remains: hardware soaks (with a note to check the rig's display_mode first, or a board in switch mode tells you nothing about the scroll code), cutting 3.3.0 -- not required by B6, whose floors are 3.2.0, but calendar 1.2.3 floors at 3.3.0 and is un-installable until it exists -- and reconsidering the modules held back during the sunset. Keeps the pre-B6 sections as history. The reasoning still applies to the next module; it is just no longer in force for this one.

…511) #510 shows as merged, but into fix/gate-git-pull-updates -- #508's branch -- rather than main. #508 reached main first, so the sideload gate was left behind on a branch. Same failure as plugins #350/#351, which merged into each other's bases; worth knowing the pattern, because GitHub reports these as MERGED and `gh pr list` shows nothing outstanding. main today has two of the three routes gated: install_plugin (#431/#433) and update_plugin's git branch (#508). install_from_url validates required manifest fields and then installs whatever it found, never comparing the core version. Cherry-picked unchanged from the orphaned branch -- it applies to main with no conflict. TestSideloadGate pins the three cases the other routes pin: refuses a floor above this core leaving nothing behind, still allows a compatible plugin (the guard against a gate that refuses everything), and does not block a 2.0.0 floor on a core reporting an untrustworthy version.

install_pluginis the chokepoint for every route that re-downloads —_reinstall_with_rollbackcalls it, so a refused update restores the version the user already had.update_pluginhas one branch that re-downloads nothing: a git checkout doesfetch+pull, runs_install_dependencies, and returnsTrue. No compatibility check anywhere on it.So a pull could deliver a manifest flooring above this core and nothing would notice. The failure lands at load time, where
PluginManager.load_plugincatches theModuleNotFoundErrorand recordsPluginState.ERROR— one line in the journal, and a display that silently stopped appearing.What this does
Adds
_gate_pulled_commit, called immediately before_install_dependencieson that branch.Checked after the pull, not before. The registry carries no compatibility field (
update_registry.pysyncslatest_versionand display metadata only), so the incoming floor is not knowable until the new commit is on disk. This is the same reason_install_plugin_implchecks after the download rather than before it.Rolled back with
git reset --hard, not by removing the directory. This is a live checkout, the previous commit is still in the object store, andlocal_shais already captured before anything mutates the tree. It leaves the user on the exact version they were already running — the same promise_reinstall_with_rollbackmakes, reached by the means this path actually has. It is also gentler than the rename: no window in which the plugin directory does not exist, and no.standalone-backup-debris if the process dies mid-way. If the reset itself fails, the log carries the command that fixes it.An unreadable manifest allows. Rule 1 of
test_plugin_compatibility_gate.py: refuse only on evidence. A manifest that will not parse declares no floor, so it is not evidence of anything. A wrong refusal breaks a working install; a wrong allowance degrades to the behaviour this path had before the gate existed.Scope, stated plainly
This is not a fix for a live user-facing break, and the PR should not be read as one. Monorepo plugins carry
plugin_pathin the registry, install via_install_from_monorepoas archives with no.git, and update through_reinstall_with_rollback— already gated. Only the five registry entries with noplugin_pathreach this branch.It is closed because the sunset rule in the plugins repo's
docs/plugin-development/08-shared-sports-code.mdstates, as condition 3, that the core enforces the floor "at install/update time", andTestInstallGate's own docstring claimed that gatinginstall_plugin"covers updates too". Both were false. B6 — deleting the bundled scroll fallbacks — rests on that precondition being true rather than merely written down.A third route,
install_from_url, is still ungated: sideloading from a URL validates required fields but never the floor. Out of scope here, but the corrected docstring now says so rather than letting the next reader infer total coverage.Tests
TestGitPullGate— five cases on real git repositories rather than mocks, because the claim under test is thatgit reset --hardputs the checkout back, and a mock of git would only prove the call was made.HEADreturned to the pre-pull commit and that the working-tree manifest went back with it (a reset of the ref alone would pass a weaker assertion)1.0.0, what the v3.1.0 release reports) does not block a2.0.0floor — the same regression guard astest_untrustworthy_core_does_not_block_installs, because this path now shares that ruleVerified they bite: with the gate call removed, the refusal and rollback tests fail while the three must-still-allow guards stay green.
