Introduces a new allow/deny host filtering system for the HTTP(S) proxy, enabling users to control which hosts are permitted or blocked via configuration and CLI commands. The filtering system is fully documented, includes robust validation and normalization of host patterns, and is covered by tests. It also ensures that filter rules are materialized for the proxy to hot-reload, and supports environment variable overrides.

Proxy Filtering Feature:

  • Adds a new proxy.filter configuration section (with mode, allow, and deny lists) to both the default config and documentation, allowing users to specify open, allow, or deny filtering modes and manage host lists.
  • Implements CLI commands under vp proxy filter for viewing status, switching modes, and adding/removing hosts from allow/deny lists, with input validation and immediate effect (no proxy restart required).

Configuration and Environment Integration:

  • Supports the VP_PROXY_FILTER_MODE environment variable to override filter mode, and documents this in the configuration guide.

Implementation and Proxy Sync:

  • Adds src/vibepod/core/proxy_filter.py to handle validation, normalization, config mutation, and writing filter rules to filter.json for proxy hot-reloading.
  • Ensures filter rules are materialized to disk on proxy start and after any filter changes.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added proxy allow/deny filtering with open, allow, and deny modes.
    • Added commands to view status, change modes, and manage host lists.
    • Supports wildcard patterns, environment overrides, automatic rule updates, and blocked-request reporting.
    • Added profile-specific filtering during proxy and task operations.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved validation and handling of invalid or duplicate filter entries.
    • Ensured updated proxy images are used when containers are recreated.
  • Documentation

    • Documented filtering modes, profiles, configuration precedence, CLI commands, hot reloads, and blocked responses.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds proxy allow/deny filtering with global and profile-specific configuration, CLI management commands, JSON materialization, startup synchronization, validation tests, and documentation.

Changes

Proxy filtering

Layer / File(s) Summary
Filter configuration and persistence
src/vibepod/core/config.py, src/vibepod/core/proxy_filter.py, tests/test_proxy_filter.py, docs/configuration.md, docs/profiles.md
Adds filter defaults, environment overrides, host-pattern normalization, profile-specific YAML storage, atomic JSON materialization, validation, and configuration documentation.
Filter CLI management
src/vibepod/commands/proxy.py, tests/test_proxy_filter_cmd.py
Adds profile-aware status, mode, allow-list, and deny-list commands with validation, normalization, persistence, and override warnings.
Proxy startup synchronization
src/vibepod/commands/run.py, src/vibepod/commands/task.py, tests/test_run.py, tests/test_task_cmd.py, tests/test_proxy_cmd.py
Materializes filter rules before proxy startup and task execution. Recreates the proxy after newer image pulls. Tests verify materialization and event ordering.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 5bf39

This PR changes outbound host filtering and shared proxy policy, but invalid modes can disable intended filtering and profile-specific rules can remove restrictions from already-running containers, creating a significant security risk. Proxy image cleanup is also delayed, and a regression test does not verify the active profile argument. These issues should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging.

update _sync_filter_file and the proxy commands to define global/project
mutation behavior or report when project configuration or VP_PROXY_FILTER_MODE
overrides the requested change. In docs/configuration.md, qualify the
immediate-application claim with those precedence rules. In
tests/test_proxy_filter_cmd.py, add regression coverage for both a project
filter override and VP_PROXY_FILTER_MODE after a CLI mutation.

In `@src/vibepod/core/proxy_filter.py`:
- Around line 69-70: Update the filter-writing logic around get_filter_settings
and the config-writing logic around config.yaml in
src/vibepod/core/proxy_filter.py: write each file to a temporary file in
path.parent, then atomically replace the destination so readers never observe
partial content. Apply this to lines 69-70 and 85-86, preserving the existing
JSON/YAML content and encoding.
- Around line 40-47: Update filter settings parsing to strip and lowercase the
configured mode, then reject invalid modes instead of defaulting to open. In
_patterns, validate and normalize each host pattern through normalize_pattern
before materializing the settings, rejecting invalid patterns as well. Update
test_get_filter_settings_coerces_invalid_mode to assert the safe failure
behavior.

src/vibepod/core/proxy_filter.py:49

  • proxy.filter is documented as hand-editable, but configured entries bypass normalize_pattern(). For example, deny: ["https://example.com"] is materialized unchanged and the proxy's exact host comparison will never block example.com; non-string YAML values are also converted into plausible host strings. Validate every configured entry before materialization and report invalid values instead of silently weakening the policy.
    def _patterns(raw: Any) -> list[str]:
        if not isinstance(raw, list):
            return []
        return [str(p).strip().lower().rstrip(".") for p in raw if str(p).strip()]

src/vibepod/core/proxy_filter.py:93

  • This single file controls the singleton vibepod-proxy for every running agent, yet it is overwritten from the effective config of whichever project invokes vp run or vp task last. Launching a second project with the default open mode therefore disables an existing project's allow policy, and concurrent launches race. Project-level policies need per-source-container rules/separate proxies, or filtering must be explicitly global-only rather than rematerialized per project.
    path = get_filter_file_path(config)
    path.parent.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)
    _atomic_write_text(path, json.dumps(get_filter_settings(config), indent=2) + "\n")

644-657: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Run cleanup after proxy recreation.

With auto_clean=True, cleanup runs before the old proxy container is removed. Docker cannot prune the old image while that container references it. Neither path cleans again after ensure_proxy.

  • src/vibepod/commands/run.py#L644-L657: defer untagged-image cleanup until after manager.ensure_proxy.
  • src/vibepod/commands/task.py#L721-L734: use the same cleanup ordering as src/vibepod/commands/run.py.
  • tests/test_run.py#L2648-L2703: assert that cleanup occurs after proxy recreation.
