Outcome

Adds an explicit trusted portable-hermes-finalization E2E selector that runs the existing Portable Hermes scenario on the reviewed x86-64 NVIDIA GPU runner with rootless Podman 5.7. The lane is opt-in and is not added to default or release-required E2E.

Reason

Issue #11892 needs pre-merge evidence for Portable Hermes finalization on its supported GPU and Podman boundary. Existing trusted selectors cover either the GPU runner with Podman 6.1 or Podman 5.7 on a CPU runner, so PR #12244 cannot produce the required exact-head evidence until this lane exists on main.

Related issues

Part of #11892

The npm advisory-feed repair landed in #12507 and is consumed by exact-head merge commit d3dd6fe63d66a991b5eea09b9ca4a6ecd4f70fb8.

Prerequisite for #12244

Changes

  • Extend the shared native Podman setup action with fail-closed native-6.1 and portable-5.7 toolchain contracts. Docker CLI isolation remains the default; only the Portable Hermes compatibility proof retains the client after the host Docker daemon and sockets are disabled.
  • Build the pinned Podman 5.7 binary from the verified upstream v5.7.0 commit with exact build-package versions from a signed immutable Ubuntu snapshot, then combine it with the reviewed native helper artifact.
  • Add the explicit-only Portable Hermes finalization job on the RTX PRO 6000 runner, with exact-candidate checkout, GPU authority evidence, host Docker daemon isolation, a client bound to the rootless Podman socket, bounded artifacts, and trap-guarded runner restoration.
  • Install cleanup authority from trusted workflow bytes before candidate checkout. Interrupted setup and the GPU build/test phase both restore the persistent runner, and Docker restoration is attempted even if Podman retirement fails.
  • Protect the builder, selector, joined live-test invocation, upload, planner, and cleanup contracts with E2E-support tests, including execution-level interrupted-setup cleanup evidence, and document the manual dispatch inputs.

Verification

  • npx vitest run --project e2e-support test/e2e/support/native-podman-setup-action.test.ts test/e2e/support/shared-e2e-workflow-boundary.test.ts test/e2e/support/e2e-host-dependency-workflow-boundary.test.ts test/e2e/support/openshell-sdk-install.test.ts — 294 tests passed on a46e2fd425c93560058cdb894c6e5d2021f9e3cb; the exact-head focused rerun of native-podman-setup-action.test.ts passed all 25 tests on 579aba19b63d4087b4435844ebc54f017191131d.
  • npm run test:changed — the growth guardrail passed and 1,003 of 1,004 selected tests passed; the unrelated OpenShell SDK fixture exceeded its 5-second timeout under the broad run, then passed all 6 tests in an isolated rerun.
  • npm run test:e2e-phases:check — 101 semantic E2E phase plans passed across 78 files.
  • npm run checks:repository — all 18 selected repository checks passed.
  • npm run validate:pr — passed against the exact tree published as GitHub-verified merge commit d3dd6fe63d66a991b5eea09b9ca4a6ecd4f70fb8, including repository hooks, CLI and plugin builds, publication validation, and TypeScript checks. The GitHub commit tree exactly matches the locally validated merge tree.
  • The exact pinned Ubuntu package set was resolved and installed successfully from snapshot 20260911T000000Z; every installed version matched its reviewed pin.
  • PR Review Advisor run 36785641292 completed all nine specialists against abc356ace7629b3e9db329222702df142a558a7f. Its five P1 findings reduced to three candidate-owned gaps: a missing shell continuation reported by three specialists, disabled Docker CLI isolation, and missing execution-level interrupted-setup cleanup evidence. All three were repaired in 24e85defacb7025c42862131f92a6effc6e1e136.
  • PR Review Advisor run 36788149806 completed all nine specialists against 24e85defacb7025c42862131f92a6effc6e1e136. Its remaining reduction P1 found that the now-always-true Docker-isolation input was unused. Commit 5bd2a18d20f3d26e17bd27cc370ba2cf5dee938f removes that state and makes isolation unconditional; 16995d1e43f43ec23491d1e1a473e678cca224c7 pins every workflow caller to the reviewed action revision.
  • PR Review Advisor run 36790589659 completed all nine specialists against 16995d1e43f43ec23491d1e1a473e678cca224c7. Its migration P1 was invalid because pinned action commit 5bd2a18d20f3d26e17bd27cc370ba2cf5dee938f already contained the Portable Podman contract. Its verification P1 was valid: unconditional Docker client removal prevented the Portable Hermes compatibility scenario from invoking the client against the rootless Podman socket. Commits 22789bcaf835db7cf6390781c8d0f454f1e73dec, 5398843c07, and a46e2fd425 restore default client isolation, permit only this compatibility proof to retain the client after host Docker is disabled, pin all workflow callers to the repaired action, and protect the boundary with tests. The three live-E2E recommendations remain the accepted prerequisite bootstrap constraint described below.
  • CodeRabbit completed review of a46e2fd425c93560058cdb894c6e5d2021f9e3cb without an actionable finding. Advisor run 36793462322 reported one verification P1: the existing Podman-stop-failure fixture restored the Docker executable and retained Podman recovery state, but did not explicitly prove Docker service and socket restoration. Commit 579aba19b63d4087b4435844ebc54f017191131d makes that regression case explicit and asserts both Docker units are unmasked and restarted before the Podman cleanup failure is returned.
  • PR Review Advisor run 36795332995 completed all nine specialists against 579aba19b63d4087b4435844ebc54f017191131d. Its migration P1 is invalid: git show 22789bcaf835db7cf6390781c8d0f454f1e73dec:.github/actions/setup-native-podman-e2e/action.yaml shows the immutable action revision defines toolchain, cleanup-fixture, and isolate-docker-cli, includes the portable-5.7 contract, and consumes the cleanup fixture. The workflow invokes those exact inputs at line 5432. The four live-E2E recommendations are the accepted prerequisite bootstrap constraint described below.
  • PR Review Advisor run 36803950902 completed all nine specialists against 579aba19b63d4087b4435844ebc54f017191131d. Its documentation P1 was valid: the Portable Hermes description omitted that rootlessport is built from the pinned Podman source. Commit bdcc9fa1ac5307a88f21b0ea3014cd385a9baa02 names the Podman 5.7, rootlessport, pasta, netavark, and aardvark-dns sources. Its migration P1 was invalid: pinned restore action 9650336899bf836db5844381a97cbc2b0fe4a2b8 already records a Podman cleanup failure, restores both Docker units, and only then returns the cleanup status. The five live-E2E recommendations remain the accepted prerequisite bootstrap constraint. Advisor run 36808868344 then completed all nine specialists against bdcc9fa1ac5307a88f21b0ea3014cd385a9baa02 with no code or documentation findings; its six live-E2E recommendations are the same accepted bootstrap constraint. Exact-head CodeRabbit completed without an actionable finding. Advisor run 36870465673 initially repeated one false migration P1: the claimed old restore implementation at 9650336899bf836db5844381a97cbc2b0fe4a2b8 is byte-identical to the exact-head action and already restores both Docker units before returning a Podman cleanup failure. Unchanged-head Advisor rerun 36873964603 cleared that finding; all nine specialists report zero code or documentation findings. Its three unresolved live-E2E recommendations are the accepted prerequisite bootstrap constraint described below.
  • env NEMOCLAW_TEST_TIMEOUT=30000 npx vitest run --project e2e-support test/e2e/support/openshell-sdk-install.test.ts test/e2e/support/e2e-host-dependency-workflow-boundary.test.ts test/e2e/support/shared-e2e-workflow-boundary.test.ts test/e2e/support/native-podman-setup-action.test.ts — all 294 affected tests passed on the merged tree. Under the default 5-second local budget, four assertions timed out on the loaded macOS host; they produced no assertion failure and all completed successfully with the diagnostic allowance.
  • Exact-head CI / Pull Request run 36870282814 passed every applicable job, including reviewed-npm-audit, OpenShell SDK packaging, the real OpenClaw distribution harness, static checks, installer integration, both builds, plugin tests, and all 12 CLI shards. Exact-head CodeQL and security scans also passed.
  • Ready-state E2E run 36876011035 failed only when the generic llama.cpp lane’s OpenClaw agent turn returned database is locked; managed installation, GPU offload, host and sandbox inference, and cleanup passed. Focused trusted manual PR run 36880407570 then passed llama-cpp-generic-gpu against unchanged candidate d3dd6fe63d66a991b5eea09b9ca4a6ecd4f70fb8, base e138623a6added0c14303fe114278d4f5853d945, and trusted workflow 889f81e82ff860117cbcf9e785a748234838bd71, classifying the first result as an isolated transient runtime-state failure. Attempt 2 of required run 36876011035 then passed the same exact-head GPU job, artifact upload, workspace cleanup, and checkout cleanup.

Review notes

This is the trusted-lane prerequisite, not the issue #11892 behavior change. The new selector cannot be used as trusted workflow code until this PR lands on main. After it lands, PR #12244 will remove its candidate-only selector, consume this lane, and attach an exact-head pre-merge run before becoming ready for review.

The native helper artifact has a guaranteed producer. Selecting portable-hermes-finalization self-selects Podman 5.7 inside the trusted matrix-planning step and enables Stage immutable native Podman E2E toolchains even when the dispatch leaves the runtime input at its default. The protected globally inherited pre-candidate workflow environment remains unchanged. The trusted generate-matrix job republishes native-podman-e2e-toolchain-amd64 before candidate checkout, and portable-podman-toolchain depends on generate-matrix before downloading it. The workflow boundary pins that selection, action content, and execution order. The similarly named native-runtime-qualification-podman-toolchain is not this artifact producer.

The Advisor live-E2E recommendation is a bootstrap constraint for this prerequisite: the trusted workflow on main cannot select a job introduced by the candidate. The intended post-merge evidence is an exact-head portable-hermes-finalization run for PR #12244, not a substitute selector.

Maintainer decision, 2026-09-29: accept post-merge live evidence for this prerequisite only. PR #12244 still requires the new selector to pass against its unchanged exact head before it becomes ready for review.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added an explicitly selectable Portable Hermes E2E job for an NVIDIA GPU runner using rootless Podman 5.7.
    • E2E setup supports native Podman 6.1 and portable Podman 5.7 toolchains. Selecting the Portable Hermes job uses Podman 5.7 regardless of gateway runtime inputs.
    • E2E setup can retain the Docker CLI when configured to do so.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Podman cleanup failures no longer prevent Docker restoration; failures are reported afterward. Interrupted setup runs its configured cleanup, preserving the setup failure status unless cleanup also fails.
  • Documentation
    • Updated E2E guidance with instructions for selecting the Portable Hermes job and details about its runtime setup.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The E2E workflow adds a Podman 5.7 toolchain build and an explicit Portable Hermes finalization job. The setup action supports native-6.1 and portable-5.7 profiles, configurable Docker CLI isolation, and cleanup after interrupted setup. Workflow checks, tests, and documentation cover these changes.

Changes

Portable Hermes finalization

Layer / File(s) Summary
Podman profiles and cleanup
.github/actions/setup-native-podman-e2e/action.yaml, .github/actions/restore-native-podman-e2e/action.yaml, .github/workflows/e2e-standard-profile.yaml, .github/workflows/e2e.yaml, tools/e2e/workflow-boundary-policy.mts, tools/e2e/workflow-boundary.mts, test/e2e/support/native-podman-setup-action.test.ts
The setup action selects and validates artifact, version, and source SHA values for each supported profile. An optional cleanup fixture runs if setup exits before completion. The restore action continues Docker restoration when Podman cleanup fails, then reports the cleanup status.
Portable Podman toolchain build and staging

The selector stages the helper artifact when Portable Hermes is selected. A workflow job builds Podman 5.7 from pinned source and dependencies, verifies the helper artifact, and uploads the toolchain. Boundary checks and tests validate these steps.
Portable Hermes finalization job

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Run Portable Hermes cleanup inside a failure-safe execution boundary.

linux-amd64-gpu-rtxpro6000-latest-1 is a persistent runner. This job changes runner-global Docker and Podman state, but its restore action runs in a later step. A hard cancellation can skip that step, and a Podman cleanup failure exits before Docker restoration. Later jobs on the same runner can inherit the altered state.

Execute setup, the live test, and restoration inside one trap-guarded boundary, using the existing EXIT INT TERM pattern from hermes-gpu-startup. Do not rely on a later if: always() step.

Advisor run 36870465673 migration finding F-migration-completion-7584ae1c0d42b1ef8f30 is a false positive. The claimed old restore implementation is not old: git diff 9650336899bf836db5844381a97cbc2b0fe4a2b8:.github/actions/restore-native-podman-e2e/action.yaml d3dd6fe63d66a991b5eea09b9ca4a6ecd4f70fb8:.github/actions/restore-native-podman-e2e/action.yaml is empty. The immutable revision 9650336899bf836db5844381a97cbc2b0fe4a2b8 already contains the reviewed cleanup contract: it records a nonzero Podman cleanup status, restores and verifies docker.service and docker.socket, preserves recovery authority on cleanup failure, and exits with the recorded cleanup status only after Docker restoration. All restore callers are pinned to that exact reviewed revision. No code change is warranted because changing the pin would not change behavior and self-pinning the new merge commit is impossible. The execution regression test restores Docker and preserves Podman recovery authority when Podman cleanup fails (#11014) also asserts both Docker units are unmasked and started before the cleanup failure is returned.

Reviewed d3dd6fe. No new blocking defect found. Earlier runner-context, shell-continuation and cleanup findings are fixed. Pinned setup and restore actions match the reviewed files byte-for-byte.

Validation: npm dependency installation passed; four affected E2E-support files passed all 419 tests; checks:repository passed all 18 checks; test:e2e-phases:check passed 101 tests across 78 files, including its prerequisite generation/build; diff whitespace check passed. Trusted review gate returned allPass=true: 57 current checks green, all 23 commits verified, DCO present and no unresolved major/critical CodeRabbit findings. Final commit and branch-rule refresh were unchanged.

All nine current Advisor specialist findings are clear. Its aggregate remains FAILED for three unresolved live-E2E recommendations. Issue #11892 explicitly accepts post-merge live evidence for this prerequisite; that exception does not extend to the dependent behavior change.

Security review: PASS for credentials, input validation, authorization, dependencies, error handling, cryptography, configuration and system security. Security testing: WARNING for deferred live GPU/Podman evidence; local cleanup and boundary tests passed.

Limitations: contributor setup stopped because installed npm rejects the SDK helper's cache lookup. Initial tsx checks hit the macOS socket-path limit; reruns using a shorter path into workspace-owned temporary storage passed. Full CLI/plugin builds, validate:pr and broad test:changed were not run. The Linux-only CI classifier was unavailable on macOS; bounded authenticated job logs were inspected instead. No live qualification was dispatched.
