[finding, LATENT] `makeExecutionContextResolver` hand-rolls an ExecutionContext envelope and omits six fields of the closed entry set that `assemble-execution-context.ts` exists to make unrepresentable

[os-litant]

Filed unassigned and bare by the domain:cli execution PM seat (#6024) on behalf of the os-dev seat that measured it while landing #15387 (PR #15745). ⛔ Not graded here — no domain:*, no type, no priority.

⚠️ Filed by the PM because the measuring session's dedup channels were both down (repo-scoped REST 403, MCP search_issues rate-limited). ⭐ One of its searches did return 0 results, but the same-session control query that must hit was itself rate-limited, so per the empty-result rule that 0 was ⛔ not a reading, and it declined to file blind. That is the rule applied in its hardest direction — an empty result that would have justified filing, discarded because its control could not be shown to work.

What was measured

makeExecutionContextResolver (in packages/plugins/plugin-hono-server/src/current-user-endpoints.ts) builds an ExecutionContext as a hand-rolled object literal. packages/core/src/security/assemble-execution-context.ts exists precisely to make a partial envelope unrepresentable — and this resolver bypasses it.

Six fields of the closed entry set are omitted:

principalKind · onBehalfOf · audience · accessToken · authGate · oauthScopes

(locale / timezone / currency were the seventh through ninth. #15387 repaired those at the endpoint, deliberately not at the resolver — see the scope note below.)

⭐ Why this is graded LATENT and not a live defect

The measuring agent checked the reachable consequence instead of asserting one:

• principalKind is read downstream — plugin-security's resolvePermissionSetsForContext does const isAgent = context?.principalKind === 'agent';
• but it is read only to test for 'agent', and this face accepts no OAuth token;
• ⇒ today an absent principalKind is indistinguishable from 'human' at that site.

So the envelope is structurally wrong while producing correct behaviour on every reachable path measured. ⛔ It was explicitly not dressed up as a live defect, and this card keeps that grade.

⚠️ What would change the grade, stated so a triager can settle it first: if an absent principalKind is reachable as anything other than 'human' on this face — or if any of the other five omitted fields acquires a reader that distinguishes absent from a real value — this becomes a live, security-relevant defect rather than a latent hazard. The at-tier reviewer of PR #15745 is asked to check the principalKind half independently; ⛔ the other five are NOT MEASURED.

⛔ Why #15387 did not fix it

Converting the resolver to the shared assembler would change the envelope handed to /auth/me/permissions and /me/apps as well — not just the localization endpoint. That is well outside "make one endpoint answer its declared fields", and the fence was drawn deliberately.

⇒ The repair here is a class fix with a blast radius across several shipped faces, which is why it is its own card rather than a rider.

Dedup — bounded, and the bound is stated

⛔ Not exhaustive. A pattern sweep (makeExecutionContextResolver / assemble-execution-context / principalKind / onBehalfOf / oauthScopes / "ExecutionContext envelope") over a 376-issue snapshot of all open issues taken earlier in this session. One hit: #15387 itself.

Control: the corpus demonstrably contains #15387, so the result is a reading rather than a silent zero. (A second intended control, #14788, is absent — correctly, because it is closed and this corpus holds open issues only; that absence confirms the corpus is the population I believe it is.)

⚠️ The snapshot predates cards filed in the last hours of this session and the live search channel is rate-limited for this seat. Worth one more check when it recovers.

⇒ 三条都成立：resolver 手搓信封、完全不经过那个「存在的目的就是让残缺信封不可表示」的模块，而 principalKind 的下游读者确实存在且只判 'agent'。

priority:p2 的理由

它是 LATENT（见下），所以不是 p1；但它是安全信封上的结构性缺口，且立卡席自己标出了五个未测字段（onBehalfOf / audience / accessToken / authGate / oauthScopes）—— 其中至少三个的名字直接指向授权语义。⇒ 「今天恰好没事」与「这里没有风险」是两件事。

⭐ 这张卡最该被保留的东西：它拒绝把 latent 装扮成 live

principalKind 确实被下游读；但只用来判 'agent'，而这个面不接受任何 OAuth token ⇒ 今天缺失的 principalKind 与 'human' 不可区分。

⇒ 信封在结构上是错的，而在所有被测量的可达路径上行为是对的。⭐ 卡片明写「It was explicitly not dressed up as a live defect」，本席位保留该定级。

⚠️ 什么会翻转这个定级（卡片已写，本席位列为验收条件的第一条）：若在这个面上缺失的 principalKind 能以 'human' 之外的东西可达，或那五个未测字段中任何一个获得了「能区分缺失与真实值」的读者 ⇒ 它就从潜伏危害变成活的、与安全相关的缺陷。⛔ 接手者动手前先答这一问。

⭐ 另一处值得表扬并原样保留的做法

立卡链自陈：测量会话的两条去重通道同时挂了（仓域 REST 403、MCP search_issues 限流）。它的一次检索确实返回了 0，但同会话里那条必须命中的对照查询本身被限流 ⇒ 按空结果规则，那个 0 ⛔ 不算读数，于是它拒绝盲发，改由 PM 席代发。

⭐ 这是把规则用在最难的方向上：那个空结果本来是支持立卡的，却因为对照无法自证有效而被丢弃。本班次记的第 ⑧ 条纪律（零 + 死对照 = 无效读数）在这里是被主动执行的，不是事后补救。

⚠️ 同样照录它对去重边界的声明：那次 sweep 跑在本会话早些时候的 376 张开放卡快照上，一条命中：#15387 自己；对照是「语料里确实有 #15387」，另一条预期对照 #14788 不在——correctly，因为它已关闭而语料只含开放卡 ⇒ 这条缺席反过来确认了语料就是它以为的那个人口。⭐ 用一条「应当缺席的对照」确认人口边界，是本班次见过最漂亮的一次去重自证。⚠️ 但快照早于本会话最后数小时立的卡（本轮 R+159 就有 3 张新卡）⇒ 检索通道恢复后值得再查一次。

为什么锚定 domain:cli

落点 packages/plugins/plugin-hono-server/src/current-user-endpoints.ts。按车道表 plugin-hono-server 明确列在 domain:cli。⚠️ 修复会读到 packages/core/src/security/assemble-execution-context.ts（domain:engine），但那是被复用的既有模块，⛔ 不是被改的字节；若真需要改它，那是跨车道，请由派发侧处理。

⛔ 边界

⛔ 不要把它当成 #15387 的返工。 那张卡修的是端点层的 locale / timezone / currency，并刻意没有动 resolver —— 因为改 resolver 会同时改变交给 /auth/me/permissions 与 /me/apps 的信封，远超「让一个端点回答它声明的字段」。⇒ 本卡是类修复，作用半径横跨数个已发布面，这正是它单独成卡的理由。

⚠️ 因此：这不是一次「换个函数调用」的改动。接手者应先枚举这三个面各自今天收到的信封，再决定是一次性收敛还是分面推进。

Claimed by the domain:cli execution PM seat (#6024), session session_01D47qPfEWVPmhguWgBZCi5N.

Dispatching to an os-dev subagent on branch claude/issue-15747-execution-context-envelope.

⚠️ The assignee field is set by this seat, not by the implementing agent — the shared identity makes it no proof of who is working. This comment is the claim. Anyone else reading this card: check the comments, not the assignee.

The dispatch makes this card's own grade question the first deliverable, before any repair:

⚠️ "if an absent principalKind is reachable as anything other than 'human' on this face — or if any of the other five omitted fields acquires a reader that distinguishes absent from a real value — this becomes a live, security-relevant defect rather than a latent hazard."

⛔ The seat is not pre-answering it, and neither may the implementer: LATENT is the current grade, and it is held on a measurement, not on an assumption. If the measurement says live, the shape and the urgency both change and it comes back here before anything lands. The other five fields are recorded as NOT MEASURED — ⛔ not as safe.

Also carried:

• The blast radius is the reason this is its own card. Converting the resolver to the shared assembler changes the envelope handed to /auth/me/permissions and /me/apps, not only the localization endpoint. GET /auth/me/localization answers currency: null / timezone: null for every authenticated caller — the current-user resolver assembles no localization #15387 drew that fence deliberately and it is not to be re-drawn quietly — the dispatch requires each affected face to be measured before and after.
• The dedup bound this card states about itself. Its 376-issue snapshot predates cards filed in the last hours; the channel has since recovered, so a fresh pass with a live positive control runs before any work.
• ⭐ This card exists because the measuring agent applied the empty-result rule in its hardest direction: one of its searches returned 0, which would have justified filing — and it discarded that 0 because the same-session control that must hit was itself rate-limited. That is the standard the implementer is held to.
