The per-session record store is now the ONLY cwd mechanism. Deleted:
- env.cwd_owner stamping + prev_owner threading (terminal_tool): the
shared env no longer carries ownership metadata at all
- _resolve_command_cwd's env/prev_owner params: resolution is
workdir > session record > config/override default
- file_tools._live_cwd_if_owned + _get_live_tracking_cwd: path
resolution never consults the shared env's live cwd
- file_tools._last_known_cwd + _remember_last_known_cwd +
_last_known_cwd_for: the #26211 preserved-anchor registry is
subsumed by the session record, which never lived on the env and
therefore cannot be lost to env cleanup. The _get_file_ops
stale-cache rescue now writes the record instead.
- env recreation (both _get_file_ops and terminal_tool) seeds the
fresh env from override > session record > config
Why no transition fallback: the legacy state was process-local and
in-memory exactly like the record store — after a restart both start
empty, and within a running process every legacy write site has been
dual-writing the record since step 1. There is no populated-legacy/
empty-record state to fall back for.
Tests updated to drive the record store instead of the deleted
mechanism; the cross-session isolation suite now asserts the same
behavior contracts (no leak, cd isolation, #26211 persistence)
against the new architecture, plus a new "session C inherits nothing"
case that the old ownership guard could not express.
Third step of the cwd rearchitecture: _resolve_command_cwd now prefers
the session's own cwd record over the shared env's live cwd.
New resolution order: workdir > session record > legacy env.cwd
(ownership-gated, transition-only) > config/override default.
The record is written after every completed command for the session, so
it IS the session's cd state — another session's cd lands in another
record and cannot affect this session's commands. The legacy env.cwd
branch only fires for a session with no record yet (no command has
completed since this code loaded); it keeps the prev_owner ownership
guard for that transition window and is deleted in step 4 along with
env.cwd_owner stamping and file_tools' _last_known_cwd machinery.
Adds command-path regression tests including the terminal sibling of
the leak-A scenario (unowned shared env cwd vs session record) and an
E2E cd round-trip through terminal_tool.
Flips the read side of the cwd rearchitecture onto the _session_cwd
store introduced in the previous commit.
_authoritative_workspace_root now resolves:
1. the session's own cwd record (get_session_cwd) — per-session by
construction, so one session's cd can never leak into another
session's file resolution, with no ownership heuristics at all
2. registered override (fallback for cleared/never-written records)
3. legacy shared-env live cwd + preserved anchor (transition-only,
for commands that ran before this code loaded)
4. sentinel-free absolute TERMINAL_CWD
delegate_task children get their record seeded from the parent's at
spawn: they keep starting in the parent's directory (current behavior)
but their subsequent cds stay isolated in their own record instead of
bleeding back through the shared env.
The wrong-worktree leak class is now solved structurally on this path —
there is no shared cwd for sessions to inherit. The legacy env-side
tracking (cwd_owner, _live_cwd_if_owned, _last_known_cwd) remains only
as a transition fallback and is deleted in the next step.
First step of the cwd rearchitecture (see PR #65185 for the targeted
leak fixes this will eventually supersede, and
.hermes/plans/cwd-rearch-audit.md for the full audit + sequencing).
The root cause of the wrong-worktree bug class is that cwd lives on the
SHARED terminal env — a global mutable timeshared between sessions.
env.cwd_owner stamping, _last_known_cwd, and file_tools' ownership
ladder are all patches over that misplacement.
This adds the replacement store: _session_cwd, keyed by the raw
session/task key, with record/get/clear accessors. Step 1 is dual-write
only — every site that learns a session's live cwd also records it:
- terminal_tool foreground path: after env.execute() the env's own
post-command tracking has updated env.cwd; mirror it under the
session key that drove the command
- register_task_env_overrides: a registered workspace cwd (ACP/TUI/
desktop) seeds the session record
- clear_task_env_overrides: drops the record on teardown
Readers are untouched — behavior is identical. Later steps flip
file_tools resolution and _resolve_command_cwd to read this store,
then delete env-side tracking, cwd_owner, and _last_known_cwd.
Also hardens terminal_tool's env acquisition with an explicit
env-is-None guard (previously implicitly unbound on an unreachable
branch, flagged by pyright once the dual-write read env post-loop).
