The existing _live_system_guard (PR #23397) blocked os.kill / os.killpg and a narrow subset of subprocess invocations. Tests still SIGTERMed the live gateway today (May 10) because the guard had structural holes. Plug them all: - subprocess: also wrap getoutput, getstatusoutput - os.system, os.popen - completely unwrapped before - pty.spawn - completely unwrapped before - asyncio.create_subprocess_exec / create_subprocess_shell - bypassed the subprocess module entirely; now wrapped - Subprocess command inspection now looks at the WHOLE command string, not just tokens[0]. Catches sudo systemctl, env systemctl, bash -c 'systemctl', setsid systemctl, /usr/bin/systemctl, etc. - New process-killer block: pkill / killall / taskkill / fuser targeting hermes/python patterns is now refused - os.kill PID 0 (own group) allowed; PID -1 (every process we can signal) refused - subprocess.Popen wrapper preserves __class_getitem__ so third-party packages that use Popen[bytes] as a type annotation still import Coverage is locked in by tests/test_live_system_guard_self_test.py - exercises every primitive against a guaranteed-foreign PID and asserts the guard fires. Adding a new kill primitive without updating the guard breaks CI. scripts/run_tests.sh now also force-loads ~/.hermes/pytest_live_guard.py when present (developer-machine convenience), so even worktrees that predate this commit get the protection on subsequent test runs through the canonical wrapper.

"""Self-test for the live-system guard fixture in tests/conftest.py.
|
|
|
|
This file is the canary. If anyone removes a guard or weakens it, these
|
|
tests fail. If anyone adds a NEW kill primitive to the codebase without
|
|
adding it to the guard, the corresponding test added here will fail too.
|
|
|
|
The guard exists to protect the developer's live ``hermes-gateway`` process
|
|
from being SIGTERMed by tests. See PR #23397 for the original incident
|
|
(5+ live gateway kills in 3 days). Per Teknium 2026-05-10:
|
|
|
|
> "You better do such a deep scan and scrub of the tests that this
|
|
> never is possible ever again for all eternity."
|
|
|
|
Every primitive that can deliver a signal to a foreign process or mutate
|
|
the live systemd unit MUST be exercised below. Adding a new primitive to
|
|
the guard? Add a test here too.
