refactor(sandbox): retire legacy ordinary command transports by deepujain · Pull Request #12181 · NVIDIA/NemoClaw

deepujain · 2026-09-21T20:34:33Z

Outcome

Ordinary sandbox commands, probes and diagnostics use native OpenShell execution. Failed or ambiguous commands do not retry through SSH or privileged local execution. Supported provider recovery, interactive SSH and file transfer retain their existing authority checks.

Reason

Multiple ordinary-command transports could run equivalent commands with different identities or repeat an ambiguous mutation through a more privileged path.

Related issues

Fixes #11263, part of #11255. Includes merged prerequisites #12214, #12222, #12236, #11911, #12258 and #12256.

Changes

Remove ordinary SSH execution, compatibility wiring and privileged fallbacks. Preserve named-gateway targeting, runtime identity, filtered environments, timeouts and distinguishable failures.
Route status through the same native executor while preserving its deadline and nullable transport-failure behavior. The OpenClaw readiness probe also preserves unavailable transport evidence after integrating fix(openclaw): preserve SQLite env and verify restart readiness #12256.
Retire unsupported custom gateway SSH recovery after auditing shipped manifests. Keep supported recovery, interactive access and file transfer.
Prevent WeChat removal when orphaned physical-session cleanup cannot be confirmed; document that behavior even without a channel entry.
Refresh corporate-CA trust through native stop/start of the same sandbox, and bound/redact MCP diagnostics.
Avoid evaluating a sandbox-controlled shell file for ordinary commands, and test actual process boundaries to reject SSH retries.

Verification

Current candidate: 836320e005cdb041c28afe12a7986bd4b8f05a5a, integrating canonical main at 350a9863cd83b5a8ee7932d4ab916393d7e69279. The merge resolves the base conflict, preserves the newer bounded MCP HTTPS diagnostics, and repairs native-version CLI fixtures to emit the required sandbox-exec marker while rejecting SSH fallback. The final follow-up pins the Hermes diagnostics support test to its asserted runtime and restores the ambient environment after each case.

Local evidence: 14 CLI integration tests, 94 E2E-support tests, and 72 focused transport/version/debug tests passed. CLI TypeScript passed with an 8 GiB heap ceiling; lint, formatting, all 18 repository checks, signed commit hooks, publication validation, and pre-push CLI/plugin TypeScript checks passed. Hosted CI on this exact head is green, including all 12 CLI shards, aggregate CLI, managed startup for OpenClaw/Hermes/Deep Agents Code, exact all-agent activation on Docker and rootless Podman, both Pi image builds, rootless lifecycle and portable profile, CodeQL, audits, docs, and static checks. The only red attempt was an external HTTP 429 fetching the pinned Hermes archive; its single rerun passed.

The earlier managed-image failure at ceca9ae56 was an external ImagePullFailed ("bytes remaining on stream"); fail-closed cleanup remained intact and the explicit OpenShell cleanup removed the sandbox. Evidence below that names another candidate or says current-head is historical for 836320e00.

Previous candidate: 3caba6799cc006bd6ee2a891719509d73f773d73. This follows the conflict-resolution merge 908a0b4, which integrated main 2e162f266f583d78392494feff44c360d1390ad0, without another base integration.

The follow-up preserves later diagnostics and archive creation when endpoint authority refuses sandbox-internals collection. Cancellation and unexpected errors still propagate. It replaces an obsolete nullable DeepAgents transport mock with typed failure coverage and adds public-create coverage proving corporate-CA refresh finishes before registration.

All 94 tests across seven affected suites passed, along with CLI TypeScript, source-shape, lint and formatting. Independent review, signed commit hooks, isolated pre-push validation, container cleanup and actual push hooks passed. Current-head required CI, all nine Advisor reports and aggregate, substantive CodeRabbit review, managed images, and portable rootless checks passed. Image qualification covered all three agents on Docker and rootless Podman, with 36 activation turns and 18 cleanup actions total.

Five current-head manual runs passed:

Native CPU startup: all three agents on AMD64 and ARM64; cleanup verified.
Docker onboarding: three repair/resume scenarios; 28 cleanup actions.
Standard Docker lifecycle: eight scenarios; 38 cleanup actions.
Docker MCP: all three agents and the credential-generation-window test; 51 cleanup actions, including explicit successful removal of all three private relays.
Hermes Docker lifecycle: all eight phases, including restart, ACP and configuration integrity; seven cleanup actions.

These results qualify the stated scopes only. Remaining Podman lifecycle prerequisites, development-runtime policy disposition and unexecuted provider/protected scopes still prevent a full review-readiness claim.

At parent 908a0b4, managed images activated all three agents on Docker and Podman: 18 turns and nine cleanup passes per runtime. Its portable rootless fixture failed an initial PID identity check before onboarding. The unchanged fixture passed ten isolated Linux cycles, but the hosted cause remains unresolved. Neither result qualifies this new candidate.

Historical evidence

The following results belong to earlier commits and do not qualify the current candidate.

The transport repair moves ordinary execution and its environment wrapper into the sandbox transport adapter, retargets all callers, improves public health-outcome coverage, and gives the OpenClaw skill fixture an account-home workspace with immediate cleanup registration.

Local affected suites: 1,234 tests passed, with 14 skips; 943 additional integration tests passed, with 15 skips. The sole remaining affected-suite failure is the unchanged Hermes Python fixture on a host without PyYAML. The dependency-boundary follow-up passed 466 targeted tests. TypeScript, lint, formatting, mock/live parity, focused cleanup tests and the architecture census passed; four stale architecture limits were lowered, with no increases. Current-head hosted evidence remains required after publication.
At 81936456060c102fe1d88795ffe31f6830d39a6a, CI passed and all nine Advisor reports were inspected. The architecture finding and CodeRabbit's startup-test duplication finding are addressed by this repair.
Live validation at 8193645 finished with 41 selected scenarios passing and 17 failing. Thirteen Podman scenarios reported incompatible or ambiguous gateway ownership; another failed rebuild preflight. The selected-gateway runtime fix is isolated in fix(podman): preserve gateway runtime and managed-service ownership #12267 and has not yet qualified this main PR.
Other failures: Docker provider selection exceeded its 8-second budget; the protected amd64 OpenClaw normalization probe timed out; and the Docker skill fixture failed finalization. The unsafe skill workspace placement is corrected here, but the complete live failure cause has not been proved. No latency, timeout, or baseline waiver is claimed.
Of 64 ordinary cleanup receipts, 63 were clear. Skill CLI cleanup failed; its fallback sandbox deletion, gateway removal and home cleanup passed. Both protected qualification daemon-removal receipts passed. Historical results do not qualify the new commit.
At parent 85256b3, CI and all nine Advisor reports passed. Exact managed images activated all three agents on Docker and Podman, with 18 turns and nine clean teardown actions per runtime. CodeRabbit identified two dead duplicate mock setups; the preceding test-only correction replaces them with fail-fast unexpected-call stubs and explicit zero-call assertions. All 52 focused/growth tests, source-shape and parity checks passed. The trusted matcher still requires fresh managed-image qualification for this candidate; no ancestor-image override is used.
At parent 4c4dc76, CI and CodeRabbit passed. All nine Advisor reports were collected; one reduction finding identified an impossible null return in the native-command facade type. The current repair narrows that contract and removes unreachable direct-consumer branches, retaining explicit typed transport-error mappings and remote nonzero exit handling. 364 affected tests passed, 14 skipped; seven growth tests, TypeScript, parity, source-shape, lint and formatting passed. Docker and Podman core image activation passed at that parent, but its image workflow failed an upstream Pi Perl DNS test. No parent result clears the current commit.
Advisor additionally requires the OpenShell gateway-auth contract scenario. It remains part of the outstanding current-head E2E work.

Review notes

The merged Podman artifact renewal and full-install cleanup prerequisite are included. Remaining fixture prerequisites are #12267 (Hermes ACP Podman context) and #12269 (MCP cleanup). Full Podman lifecycle coverage remains pending. Protected GPU coverage needs the offline npm prerequisite. Observer coverage is tracked by #12238/#12197. The dev MCP lane conflicts with the supported installer channel and needs disposition. Real-provider messaging and exact staging Launchable coverage are not claimed. No human approval, gate waiver or merge-readiness claim is made.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Sandbox command execution moves to a shared native OpenShell transport. The change updates sandbox recovery, channel removal, MCP operations, version checks, and diagnostics. It also adds managed-startup corporate CA trust activation and changes E2E workspace and diagnostic fixtures.

Changes

Native sandbox command operations

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Native command transport `src/lib/adapters/sandbox/command-transport.ts`, `src/lib/adapters/sandbox/command-transport.test.ts`, `src/lib/adapters/sandbox/ordinary-command.ts`, `src/lib/adapters/openshell/*`	The transport uses buffered OpenShell execution and a non-null result-or-throw contract. It adds typed transport errors, runtime-aware environment construction, timeout handling, and command wrapping. The SSH transport and local Docker fallback paths are removed.
Sandbox consumers and recovery `src/lib/actions/sandbox/`, `src/lib/agent/`, `src/lib/sandbox/version.ts`, `test/process-recovery/*`	Status, probes, MCP operations, policy handling, restart, recovery, and version checks use native execution or map typed transport failures to their operation-specific outcomes. Custom recovery-script generation and its supporting helpers are removed.
Channel cleanup and CLI/rebuild integration `src/lib/actions/sandbox/policy-channel`, `docs/manage-sandboxes/`, `docs/reference/commands.mdx`, `src/lib/actions/sandbox/rebuild-`, `test/channels/`, `test/cli/*`	WeChat stopped-state cleanup runs before native command cleanup. Native cleanup requires a zero exit status and completion sentinel; failed or inconclusive cleanup does not retry through SSH or a local runtime provider. Related CLI and rebuild fixtures use OpenShell execution.
Version and command compatibility tests `src/lib/sandbox/version`, `test/cli/list-share-live-inference.test.ts`, `test/runtime/sandbox/`	Version probes report `openshell-exec`. Test executables and fixtures emit the sandbox execution marker and reject SSH invocation where applicable.

Managed-startup corporate CA activation

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Trust refresh and create orchestration `src/lib/onboard/managed-startup/`, `src/lib/onboard/runtime-provider/access.ts`, `src/lib/onboard/sandbox-create/orchestration`, `test/onboarding/onboard-sandbox-build.test.ts`	A new lifecycle operation stops and starts the sandbox to refresh corporate CA trust. Creation orchestration performs the refresh after creation and before registration when a CA is present, using the verified sandbox identity.

Diagnostics and E2E support

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Async debug collection `src/lib/diagnostics/*`	Debug execution is awaited. Sandbox diagnostics use native OpenShell commands and handle endpoint and transport failures in the collection path.
E2E diagnostic evidence `test/e2e/fixtures/diagnostics`, `test/e2e/live/`, `test/e2e/support/`	E2E helpers capture bounded diagnostic evidence after selected failures. SQLite qualification failures include structured check details.
E2E workspace and runtime fixtures `test/e2e/fixtures/public-install-workspace.ts`, `test/e2e/fixtures/runtime-provider.ts`, `test/e2e/live/cloud-onboard.test.ts`, `test/e2e/live/openclaw-skill-cli.test.ts`, `test/e2e/support/*`	Disposable installer workspaces are created under the account home and registered for cleanup. Runtime prerequisite handling permits an omitted skip callback and reports unavailable runtime errors when no skip path applies.

Explanation

Several changes have no demonstrated connection to [#11263]. The managed-startup corporate-CA stop/start implementation and its onboarding orchestration tests address CA activation, not ordinary command transport retirement. The public-install workspace changes and the SQLite session-store evidence tests address E2E fixture isolation and launch validation, not transport replacement. These changes add separate production or test objectives beyond the linked issue.

Resolution

Move the corporate-CA implementation and unrelated E2E fixture and session-store changes to separate linked issues or pull requests. Retain only changes that implement native ordinary-command execution, supported transport preservation, related failure behavior, documentation, or their tests.

## Outcome The CI classifier's timeout and cancellation tests wait for descendant PIDs to disappear after termination. They retain a two-second bound and still fail if any tested process remains. ## Reason [PR #12181 CI attempt 1](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/35688114606/attempts/1) failed when it checked a descendant PID immediately after its process-group leader closed. The test and implementation are identical on that PR's base and current main. In an isolated Linux reproduction, 23 of 80 cases still exposed the PID at that instant; all disappeared by the next 10 ms observation. ## Changes Use the existing bounded-wait pattern for process absence in the timeout test and sibling cancellation cases. Keep exit-code, timeout, signal, and temporary-directory cleanup assertions. Production termination behavior is unchanged. ## Verification - `npx vitest run --project integration test/automation/classify-ci-failure.test.ts` — 83 tests passed in isolated Linux with Node 24.18.1, no network, and no contributor-host credentials. - `npx vitest run --project integration test/repository/cli-coverage-sequencer.test.ts` — 13 tests passed. - Normal signed commit hooks and pre-push validation: passed; GitHub verified commit `44b1a520c3664aaecd1437c04445a9143af6d231`. - Formatting, diff, and secret checks passed. No secrets, API keys, or credentials are introduced. ## Review notes The patch was self-reviewed against the unchanged classifier and its process-group behavior. The reproduction distinguishes asynchronous termination/reaping from a surviving process; the assertions still require actual absence. Fresh CI and automated review completed successfully; independent human review remains pending. No CI waiver or human approval is claimed. This is a separate test repair so PR #12181 can retain its current runtime-validation commit. --- Signed-off-by: Deepak Jain <deepujain@gmail.com> ## Latest remote validation Commit `44b1a520c3664aaecd1437c04445a9143af6d231`: [CI passed](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/35690070713). [All nine Advisor specialists are clear](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/35690981162), and the no-blockers gate passed. CodeRabbit reviewed the exact head and generated no actionable code comments. Independent human review remains pending; no human approval or merge is claimed.  ## Summary by CodeRabbit - **Tests** - Improved process-cleanup test reliability by waiting briefly for processes to exit before verifying termination. - Updated process-group and cancellation test scenarios to use the new termination wait behavior.

## Summary - make the stable `mcp-bridge` lane depend on the run-scoped reviewed OpenShell SDK artifact - install that artifact through the pinned credential-free shared action before candidate execution artifacts are restored - enforce the producer, artifact identity, shared installer, and ordering boundaries in workflow contract tests ## Why Exact-head MCP E2E for #12181 reached the SDK-backed corporate-CA stop and failed with `ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND` for `@nvidia/openshell-sdk`. The trusted workflow produced the reviewed SDK artifact but never installed it in the stable `mcp-bridge` job. Candidate code cannot repair a trusted-workflow omission. ## Validation - 63 focused E2E workflow contract tests passed - repository pre-commit checks passed - `npm run validate:pr` passed from the clean committed tree ## Follow-up After this workflow fix is available on `main`, rerun the exact #12181 head with the stable `mcp-bridge` selector and inspect every artifact before moving #12181 out of draft. Signed-off-by: Deepak Jain <deepujain@gmail.com>  ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Bug Fixes** * Improved end-to-end workflow reliability by ensuring required SDK packages are downloaded, validated, and installed before CLI artifacts are restored. * Added dependency checks that identify missing or incorrectly ordered workflow steps. * **Tests** * Expanded automated coverage for incomplete workflow dependencies, missing SDK installation steps, and incorrect installation ordering.

## Outcome MCP and onboarding E2E cleanup uses the recorded gateway authority. Fresh sandbox state does not start a gateway; retained registrations recover only their selected gateway after verified absence. Uncertain ownership fails closed. ## Reason Pre-cleanup could start a gateway before a fresh sandbox existed and select the wrong runtime. This follows transport cleanup #12181 and consumes the merged lifecycle prerequisites #12256 and #12267. ## Changes - Share owned cleanup across MCP, credential-window, onboarding repair and resume tests. Preserve the caller's allowed runtime environment and reject mixed retained gateway bindings before mutation. - Retain shared-fixture parity obligations from the base manifest across deletion, rename and removed ownership. Require semantic changes to the original owner's mapped fast tests. - Capture bounded, fixed-schema Podman ownership observations without changing authoritative command results or publishing raw child output. - Pin the private relay image by digest, retain stopped-container diagnostics, validate bounded counters in private temporary storage and remove owned resources after startup or diagnostic failures. - Close HTTPS listeners and event streams before final diagnostic persistence. Capture completed requests, bound persistence at ten seconds and preserve shutdown and persistence errors. Later cleanup entries can continue after a stalled writer. - Bound certificate and FIFO creation. Accept the current portable lock-owner remediation only after the existing committed-bridge verification, preserving the single retry and rejection of unknown diagnostics. ## Verification Current candidate: `93a494b880fd9d9c7e3d34d39c6045a2e5c8a3bd`; base: `3a4eb285aee17d2c57ce991dc6fed93bad315d53`. - Fifty focused tests passed for HTTPS diagnostics, cleanup continuation, relay behavior, MCP servers and shared HTTP behavior. The new stalled-writer regression failed before the fix, then passed while its writer remained pending. Earlier fixture and parity validation covered 220 tests, including 52 parity regressions. The final socket-close correction also passed its four existing diagnostic tests. - Normal signed commit hooks, isolated normal pre-push validation, host publication validation and the full CLI compiler check passed. The live assertion budget remains unchanged and passes. - [CI](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/36126011093), [managed-image qualification](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/36126011070), [GPU/security qualification](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/36126014176), CodeRabbit and all nine [Advisor reports](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/36127406377) pass on this commit. All 19 commits are GitHub Verified; no review thread remains unresolved. - The final [66-case branch run](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/36128375262) tests this exact candidate as both source and branch-workflow controller: 17/27 original Podman cases pass, 41/56 comparison cases pass, and 8/10 additional onboarding/startup/security cases pass. All successful executions have real passing test summaries. No previously passing comparison case regressed. The ten original failures remain unresolved and are not represented as passing. - The MCP lock-message failure was removed, exposing trusted-private TLS failures in five agent/runtime cases. Their diagnostics show zero secure connections or HTTP requests and fixed TLS-error counts; their owned cleanup completed successfully. Deep Agents Docker passes the full trusted-private route. The Docker inference control encountered the known public-tunnel transport failure. All six MCP cleanup reports pass: 86 cleanup entries, zero failures. - Remaining Podman failures include dashboard-port reuse, Hermes sealed-config permissions, OpenClaw restore maintenance convergence and gateway registration after cleanup. Brave HTTP 402 quota exhaustion is tracked as an external blocker by maintainer direction. The unsupported Podman export assertion and legacy credential-file assertions remain separate fixture issues. - OpenShell remains 0.0.116. The development-OpenShell MCP compatibility lane is outside this stable-version assessment. ## Review notes The modified parity checker has source review and real-Git positive/negative coverage. Publication validation used the canonical-base validator entry and dependency inputs in a container with no host credentials, host mounts or runtime socket; resolved tool bytes matched a fresh trusted-base installation. All nine current-head reports were read and are clear. The prior diagnostic-persistence deadline finding is fixed here. The repeated fixture-rename finding is a false positive: the checker explicitly includes deleted fixture paths with `--no-renames`. An isolated real-Git R098 rename with a behavior change and removed ownership retained both paths and rejected the missing original fast-test change. The [disposition](#12269 (comment)) preserves the failed aggregate rather than representing it as passing; the checker is unchanged since that reproduction. The live concurrency assertions remain intact. The shared listener supplies its already-validated TCP port, replacing a duplicate local check. Diagnostic artifacts contain bounded facts and counters; diagnostics do not authorize lifecycle decisions. --- Signed-off-by: Deepak Jain <deepujain@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Aaron Erickson <aerickson@nvidia.com> --------- Signed-off-by: Deepak Jain <deepujain@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Aaron Erickson <aerickson@nvidia.com> Co-authored-by: Aaron Erickson <aerickson@nvidia.com>

All previous runs

## Outcome The public-installer workspace now has regression tests against the SDK's actual credential-state trust checks. A private workspace is accepted; a workspace with a writable ancestor is rejected before connection. ## Reason The cloud-onboarding fixture previously placed its isolated HOME beneath a temporary directory that the SDK rejects. PR #12181 already moved that workspace beneath the account home and landed the corporate-CA supervisor refresh. These tests verify the workspace correction at its consuming security boundary. ### Related issues Refs #12181. The production CA fix is already on main; this PR adds test coverage only. ## Changes - Exercise the existing public-install workspace through the real SDK connection preflight, using inert test certificates and a fake connector. - Check acceptance of private ancestors, rejection of writable ancestors, and registered cleanup. ## Verification - `vitest run --project e2e-support test/e2e/support/corporate-ca-workload-kind.test.ts test/e2e/support/e2e-cleanup-resources.test.ts` — 22 tests passed. - Normal publication validation and CLI type check — passed. - Signed commit hooks — passed on `4c39abfea596e37471a1a5e65e93bfe6953be096`. - No network connection, real credentials, or runtime sandbox is used by these tests. No secrets, API keys, or credentials were added. - Exact-head CI [36171550759](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/36171550759) passed; CodeRabbit reported no actionable findings; all nine specialists in Advisor run [36173182301](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/36173182301) reported clear. - Selected branch E2E [36171734436](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/36171734436), attempt 1, used candidate/controller `4c39abf`, canonical base `7d02fef`, its published image cohort, and OpenShell 0.0.116. This was 10 selected cases, not full unfiltered E2E: 6 passed and 4 failed. - Private TLS passed in all six MCP agent/runtime combinations, with completed HTTP requests and zero recorded TLS errors. The complete OpenClaw and Deep Agents MCP cases passed on Docker and Podman; both credential-generation controls passed. - Both Hermes cases failed later during replacement-credential gateway restart (health timeout / MCP configuration not reloaded). Bridge cleanup could not contact the sandbox, but final owned-sandbox deletion and destruction succeeded. - Both public cloud installers/onboarders exited 0, then failed the existing assertion that successful onboarding removes legacy `credentials.json`. The full cloud-onboarding cases remain failing. - Production code and live fixtures are identical to canonical base `7d02fef`. The remaining runtime failures do not originate in this support-test-only diff. This does not establish that main is fully green or that all original 27 Podman failures are resolved. - All 10 case artifact archives were checked against their GitHub SHA-256 digests. Earlier candidate results are not used to qualify this revision. --- Signed-off-by: Aaron Erickson <aerickson@nvidia.com> --------- Signed-off-by: Aaron Erickson <aerickson@nvidia.com>
