Neil 4fc1855bda build: share one pnpm virtual store across worktrees (off in CI and on Windows) (#30254)
* build: share one pnpm virtual store across worktrees, off under CI

Each worktree carried a full node_modules; the global virtual store links
one slot per package version instead. pnpm keeps an explicit setting on
under CI, so a pnpmfile hook turns it off there: CI packages from,
caches and verifies a project-local node_modules.

* fix(build): keep shared electron and windows-process-tree dirs untouched under GVS

Every worktree runs Electron from the one shared electron package, so the
per-repo dist cache must not swap that dist and a foreign-arch install must
not land in it. The relay addon builder now repairs and compiles a private
copy instead of the shared windows-process-tree dir.

* fix(build): accept CLI runtime imports reached through an in-artifact store link

Under the global virtual store node_modules/<pkg> realpaths into a store
outside the repo. The check still rejects anything not reached through a
node_modules link inside the artifact, such as a stray ~/node_modules.

* docs: explain the global virtual store layout and the ~/node_modules hazard

* test: compare CLI closure paths with POSIX separators so the suite passes on Windows

* build: keep Windows on the normal pnpm layout unless ORCA_PNPM_GLOBAL_VIRTUAL_STORE=1

Store links are true symlinks on Windows, and installs without admin or
Developer Mode are unverified; CI still forces the normal layout first.

* fix(build): close the remaining shared-slot gaps under the global virtual store

- verify-skills-cli-runtime resolves each import from the importer's realpath,
  as Node does, so an artifact-local copy can't mask a ~/node_modules load.
- A concurrent sibling install of the shared Electron dist is kept, not swapped out.
- rebuild:node goes through ensure-native-runtime, which builds a shared
  node-pty beside the slot instead of node-gyp cleaning its build/ dir.

* fix(build): keep pnpm rebuild:node a forced rebuild

It replaced pnpm rebuild node-pty, which always rebuilt; without --force it
only rebuilt a node-pty that failed to load.

* docs: note that the store switches must stay set, since pnpm run relinks

* build: move the pnpmfile under config/ to keep the repo root allowlisted

pnpm-workspace.yaml points pnpm at it; the lockfile checksum is unchanged
because the content is.

* fix(build): enable the global virtual store from the pnpmfile, not the workspace file

pnpm exec derives NODE_PATH from the file setting, so even with the store
forced off under CI every child process got the root node_modules on its
NODE_PATH; a Windows rebuild fixture then resolved the real
@orca/windows-registry it deliberately omits. The hook now sets the store
both ways, and ORCA_PNPM_GLOBAL_VIRTUAL_STORE=0/1 is the one switch.

* test(pty): keep F3's concurrent spawns on the node-pty mock

Two concurrent first import('node-pty') calls race vitest's mock registry
and the loser loads the real addon under the mocked linux platform. It
passed only where a platform-agnostic build/Release happened to exist,
so it failed on every shared-store worktree.

* ci: fail PRs whose packages need a dependency they never declared

A new dependency_isolation job installs with the global virtual store
forced on (ORCA_PNPM_FORCE_GLOBAL_VIRTUAL_STORE_IN_CI), HOME and the store
in an empty temp dir, then runs pnpm tc and the undeclared-dependency test.
Postinstall now warns when a node_modules above the shared store, such as
~/node_modules, would mask the same class of bug locally.

* ci: set the isolation job's HOME and store through GITHUB_ENV

Job-level env cannot read the runner context, which made pr.yml invalid.

Neil df0c44571b fix(build): shared native packages get one immutable build instead of in-place rebuilds (#30226)
* refactor(build): extract the lock-free shared tree publish from the Electron dist cache

Native builds in package dirs shared across worktrees need the same
stage, validate, rename-into-place publish; one implementation keeps the
never-replace-a-good-entry and quarantine-restore rules in one place.

* fix(build): never rebuild a native addon in a package dir other worktrees load

Under pnpm's global virtual store node_modules/node-pty is one store slot
shared by every worktree, so an in-place node-gyp or @electron/rebuild run
in one worktree replaced the pty.node another was running. A shared
package dir now gets an immutable per-ABI build/orca-napi-<platform>-<arch>
compiled in a scratch copy, load-checked in a fresh process, and published
atomically; a usable entry is reused, never rebuilt. The patched node-pty
and windows-process-tree loaders try that dir before build/Release, and
packaging renames it to build/Release so packaged layouts are unchanged.
Private (non-GVS, CI) installs keep the existing in-place path.

* fix(build): find shared native packages through the project's own node_modules link

require.resolve with paths fell back to another install under Bun, so a
test fixture's private node-pty was judged shared.

* ci: run native checks when the shared native build modules change

* fix(build): pin the shared native slot and keep sibling publishes intact

Resolve the package's physical dir once so a concurrent relink cannot publish
one slot's build into another, verify the quarantined tree is the one judged
unusable before replacing it, and keep in-flight staging/quarantine trees out
of the packaged resource copy.

* fix(build): never move a sibling's fresh native entry, and refuse off-platform builds

Re-check the entry's identity right before quarantining it, and fail instead
of publishing a host-OS binary under another platform's entry name.

OrcaWinandOrca Worker 4559c250b3 fix(windows): restrict secure files in-process instead of spawning icacls (#28135)
* fix(windows): restrict secure files in-process instead of spawning icacls

Every secure write on Windows spawned icacls.exe five times on the calling
thread (the Electron main thread for most stores): verify, /reset,
/inheritance:r /grant:r, verify, verify. Process creation under endpoint
security costs ~0.6 s each, so each write froze the UI for seconds (#26027).
The /reset + /inheritance:r pair is also what behavioural EDR scores as
ransomware tradecraft (#25583).

Add native/windows-security (@orca/windows-security): a small N-API addon
over advapi32 that reads and writes DACLs in-process. It exposes the token
user SID, a DACL read as SDDL, a DACL write (sync and on the thread pool),
a create-with-DACL file write, and an additive grant. Policy and
verification stay in TypeScript.

- writeSecureFile creates each temp file already carrying the protected
  user/SYSTEM/Administrators DACL (CreateFileW + SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES), reads
  it back once, and renames it. No ACL is modified on the write path and no
  process starts. Before: 5-7 spawns, 94-138 ms per write. After: 0 spawns,
  ~0.5 ms.
- A secure directory is verified once per process. It is rewritten only
  when verification fails, on the thread pool, because the write walks
  every descendant (~2 s on a 29k-entry userData).
- The verifier follows OpenSSH's rule: only the user, SYSTEM and
  Administrators may be granted anything, and the path must be protected
  (or, for a file, inherit from a secure parent). DACLs written by the
  icacls-era hardening pass unchanged, so there is no migration.
- If the addon cannot load, the write still happens and reports
  unrestricted, logged once. There is no icacls or PowerShell fallback.
- grantDirAcl, the startup userData grant, and the install-dir probe and
  package repair use the same addon, so whoami.exe and icacls.exe are no
  longer spawned anywhere at runtime.
- orcad's Windows slots ship the addon beside their bundles (built per
  arch, PE-machine checked). Its data-root privacy check fails closed, so
  without the addon a Windows orcad would not start.

Fixes #26027
Fixes #25583

* refactor(secure-file): harden existing Windows files through the sync lane

The read path called restrictWindowsPathSync directly and recorded success
itself; the existing sync lane already does both. One call site fewer.

* refactor(windows-security): one load, one rule, no fallthrough (review #28135)

- The descriptor parser is anchored, so a conditional ACE (its body holds
  parentheses) or anything else it cannot read fails closed instead of
  verifying the ACEs before it.
- findSecureDaclViolation is one flat rule: protected, allow rules only for
  the user, SYSTEM and Administrators (OpenSSH's ACE rule), and full
  control for the user. The inherits-from-a-secure-parent exception is gone:
  it accepted exactly what loosening the parent reaches.
- The addon and the user SID load once, behind one wrapper that adds the
  extended-length prefix to every path and runs async DACL writes to one
  path in order, so a startup grant cannot land after a re-lock and restore
  the broader DACL.
- With the addon loaded, a failed born-restricted create throws with the
  matching Node error code instead of falling back to a plain write.
- A grant leaves a NULL DACL untouched instead of turning 'everyone' into
  'only this SID'. WriteFile runs once and fails on a short write.
- The artifact create-intent store writes through writeSecureFile and drops
  its own temp writer, directory LRU and synchronous directory re-lock.
- Test seams the global fake makes redundant are gone.

* fix(packaging): fail a Windows build whose workspace addon binary is missing or foreign-arch

The @orca/windows-* workspace links exist on every host, so their presence
proved nothing: a missing or wrong-architecture .node only surfaced at
runtime, as unrestricted secure files or an orcad that refuses to start.
beforePack now reads each addon's PE machine against the target arch.

* refactor(windows-security): prune what the native ACL left dead (review #28135)

- Sync-spawn ratchet: hardenSecurePath and the sync-flag exemption it alone
  used are gone, and the advice and baseline header no longer say secure
  writers run icacls.
- The install-dir probe reads ACEs through parseSddlDacl, so an ACE it
  cannot parse fails the whole reading closed instead of being skipped; AC
  is a resolved alias there now.
- The packaging check reads the addon binary through node_modules, the copy
  that ships.
- No winCode-to-errno table: nothing reads .code off a failed secure write.
- The load memo is not mutated; secure-path keeps its own log-once flag.
- grantInstallDirPackageAcl is a plain function, and secure-file restricts
  a Windows directory and a POSIX path directly instead of through one
  two-platform helper.

* fix(windows-security): resolve LA in real-ACL tests; tear a file whose close fails

- The GitHub Windows runner is the built-in Administrator (RID 500), whose
  SID reads back as LA. Production already resolves it through
  localDomainSidOf; the win32 test helpers parsed without it. One shared
  readDaclOf resolves aliases for every real-ACL suite, and the verifier's
  unit test covers an LA-aliased directory and LA as a stranger.
- createFileWithDacl treats a failed CloseHandle like a failed write (lost
  data on a network volume) and deletes the torn file.
- Drop a duplicate test reset and a typo.

* fix(windows-security): load only from inside the app; read DACLs as structure (review #28135)

- Loader: orcad's staged binary first, then the workspace package only if
  its real path is inside the app (process.resourcesPath, or this
  checkout). A bare specifier otherwise walks every parent up to
  C:\node_modules, which any local user may create, and orcad holds
  credentials.
- The addon reads a DACL as { protected, aces: [{ type, flags, mask, sid }] }
  via GetAce, with a SID only for plain allow/deny ACEs and null for a NULL
  DACL. findSecureDaclViolation and the install-dir probe check that
  structure, so conditional, callback and object ACEs fail closed. The SDDL
  parser, its alias table, LA/localDomainSid resolution and getDaclSddl are
  gone; SDDL is only the write format.
- Install-dir tree pass: files flagless as before, but a directory only when
  its own DACL is protected (inheritably). Re-granting inheriting
  directories re-propagated each subtree (3.2 s for 1,093 directories). The
  root is no longer granted, or counted, twice. The two passes are plain
  functions behind a { root, tree } seam.
- One namespacing (path.win32.toNamespacedPath) at the addon boundary, also
  the per-path ordering key; the comment states the real sync-grant
  invariant.
- restrictWindowsDirectory(dir): Promise<boolean> replaces the callback
  lane; the reporter is guarded once, so the 'settle' stage is gone.
- Sync-spawn ratchet: the secure writers no longer spawn or block, so they
  leave the gate (109 -> 61 uses).
- Errors name the Win32 call and code only; a failed
  GetSecurityDescriptorControl fails the write instead of defaulting to
  unprotected.

* test(secure-file): assert the durable POSIX write's outcome, not the old chmod order

writeSecureFile now chmods the temp file to 0o600 before fsyncing it, so
the fsync also covers the mode change and the file is owner-writable when
opened. Assert what matters under umask 0o200: the write succeeds, the
temp file is fsynced read-only, and the published file is exactly 0o600.

* fix(windows-security): namespace paths with the host's toNamespacedPath

path.win32.toNamespacedPath rewrote POSIX temp paths (/tmp/x -> \tmp\x) in the
Linux runs of the Windows-logic unit tests, so the fake addon wrote to the wrong
place. The addon only runs on Windows, where the host function is the win32 one;
elsewhere it is the identity. The long-path assertion runs on Windows only.

* test(windows-security): assert the install-dir long-path prefix on Windows only

The prefix comes from the host's toNamespacedPath, which is the identity off
Windows; the Linux run of this suite expected the win32 escape.

* fix(windows-user-data-acl): grant the root even when its children cannot be listed (review #28135)

A readdir failure on userData aborted the whole grant, so the root grant
that could repair a DACL refusing the listing was never attempted. The
listing failure is now recorded, the root is still granted, and the
marker stays withheld so the next launch retries.

* test(windows-security): wait for relock propagation, accept Entra ID SIDs (review #28135)

- The large-relock test waited only for the parent to turn protected,
  which happens before propagation reaches the children, then read a child.
  It now waits on the parent and both ends of the child range.
- The token-user test rejected S-1-12-1 (Entra ID) accounts, failing the
  suite on Entra-joined dev machines.

Neil 1912c90141 Extract subprocess handling into @orca/process-host (#26963)
Extract subprocess execution and process contracts into @orca/process-host with explicit public entry points, independent checks, and one Node 18 compatible CommonJS runtime. Migrate application consumers and integrate package builds, dependency selection, import enforcement, and runtime resource staging.

Preserve daemon startup ownership and profile isolation, and qualify development rebuild recovery and concurrent output publication. Remove unnecessary aliases, test forwarding exports, and a duplicate output scan.

Validation: full typechecks, changed-code quality, package and artifact checks, native Windows builds/types plus 306 runtime tests, and independent native reviews.

Matched full E2E controls on original main and unchanged reviewed head both pass all 17 applicable tests (nine skips). Earlier intermittent E2E failures are documented in the PR; no assertions were weakened. The final combined-tree audit preserves both branches with no import-boundary violations.

Neil ea01cd0ccd fix(windows): reject a node-pty addon that predates the MSYS breakaway denial (#20047)
* docs(windows): record the measured MSYS job-breakaway mechanism

The per-PTY job already denies JOB_OBJECT_LIMIT_BREAKAWAY_OK for Cygwin/MSYS
shells (#19068), but nothing records why, and a conpty.node built before that
commit fails windows-msys-job.win32.test.ts in a way that reads as a source
defect. Measured on a real Windows 11 host: both the plain and the exec-
replacement Git Bash shapes leak, the escape is the MSYS runtime's own
spawn/exec (fork keeps membership), and a single-variable A/B on
usesCygwinRuntime flips the result 0/2 -> 4/4.

Also names the gap the failure hid behind: node-pty-job-ownership.cjs asserts
symbol presence, which cannot distinguish patch revisions.

* fix(windows): reject a node-pty addon that predates the MSYS breakaway denial

The native-runtime gate asserted only that terminateJob, listJobProcessIds and
assignCurrentProcessToJob were exported. All three predate the Cygwin/MSYS
breakaway denial, so an addon built before it passes every gate,
isPtyJobOwnershipAvailable() returns true, and windows-pty-job.win32.test.ts
passes 6/6 -- while every Git Bash child is created outside its pane's job and
survives terminatePtyJob.

Read the resolved .node and require the wide msys-2.0.dll literal that
usesCygwinRuntime holds, the way stagedRelayAddonIsUnpatched() already tells a
patched windows-process-tree addon from a published one. An addon the caller
cannot name is refused rather than skipped: a gate that cannot see its subject
is not a gate.

Verified against real binaries on a Windows 11 host: the shared checkout's
pre-#19068 build errors, a build from current patched source passes, a missing
path errors.

Also closes the cross-host packaging skip. The export half has to load the
addon so it cannot run when the packaging host is not the target, which is how
a Windows release built elsewhere could ship this. The marker is a file read
and needs neither; an unrecognised layout warns rather than fails a release
that was packaging fine.

* fix(windows): check the MSYS breakaway denial on the rebuild path too

The Electron probe carried the marker check, but it lives inside
probeElectronNativeModules, which returns early whenever the Electron package
binary is unusable. Covered by another path is not this path checks -- and the
defect this whole change closes was a gate that looked like it checked.

Reading the binary needs neither a loadable Electron nor an executable target
arch, so assert it after the rebuild, beside the windows-process-tree
assertion that exists for the same reason: this is the addon copied into the
packaged app. Absent warns (a cross-platform rebuild need not leave a win32
addon on this disk); present and unmarked is fatal.

The fixtures now write a real addon file, because the gate reads the binary it
was told about rather than trusting the exports. Verified against the two real
binaries measured on the Windows host: the pre-#19068 build fails this path,
the build from current patched source passes.

* fix(windows): check the marker on every ConPTY path the packaged app can load

The packaged marker check read one hard-coded path, `build/Release/conpty.node`,
and warned when it was absent. `loadNativeModule` tries `build/Release`, then
`build/Debug`, then `prebuilds/win32-<arch>`, swallowing each failure, and
`prunePackagedNodePty` drops the published prebuild only when a same-arch
`build/Release` exists to replace it. So the two packages the check was added for
were the two it could not see:

- cross-host: no host but Windows can build conpty.node, so there is no
  `build/Release` and the prebuild is what ships. The check warned and returned.
- cross-arch: `build/Release` is the packaging host's own arch, patched and
  marked, so the check printed OK -- while the target app cannot load it and
  falls through to the unmarked prebuild underneath.

Measured, not assumed: both published Windows prebuilds in the node-pty tarball
contain neither `msys-2.0.dll` nor `cygwin1.dll` in any encoding. They are the
binary that leaks every MSYS pane child out of its job.

It now sweeps every candidate present for the *target* arch and refuses a package
with no candidate at all, which is a package with no ConPTY backend rather than a
layout to shrug at. It runs for every Windows slice instead of only the branch
the export check skips, so deleting the export check cannot silently take it too.
A stale source build keeps the rebuild advice; the prebuild gets the advice that
actually works, which is to package the slice on a Windows host of that arch.

Also: the marker constant was re-typed in four places and was tied to the C++
literal that produces it by nothing at all, so editing the patch would have left
a gate that fails every correctly rebuilt addon and tells the developer to do the
one thing that cannot help. The fixtures now take the constant from the gate, and
a test asserts the patch still adds `L"msys-2.0.dll"` to conpty.cc.

And the rebuild path treated a missing addon as a warning even on the host that
will run the install, where node-pty would fall through to that same prebuild.
The verdict is now a value, so it is tested without a platform gate.

* fix(windows): resolve the packaged ConPTY the way its loader does

Sweeping every candidate and demanding the marker on all of them was wrong in
the one case it was meant to make safe. `beforeBuild` runs
`rebuild-native-deps.mjs --platform=win32 --arch=<target>`, so a cross-arch slice
normally does get a patched `build/Release` for the target; `prunePackagedNodePty`
keeps the prebuild anyway because its guard is `electronArch === process.arch`
rather than the arch of the binary. That package is correct and its leftover
prebuild is never reached, and the sweep failed it -- telling whoever ran it to
package on a Windows arm64 host, which is both the wrong remedy and one no runner
here can offer.

Presence cannot separate that package from the one whose cross-arch rebuild
quietly emitted the host's architecture, because the only difference is the arch
of `build/Release`. So the gate now resolves the addon the way `loadNativeModule`
does -- first candidate whose PE `IMAGE_FILE_HEADER.Machine` matches the target,
walking root-then-lib for each layout in node-pty's own order -- and checks the
marker on the one that will actually run. A package with no candidate, or none of
the target's architecture, is refused: it has no ConPTY backend either way, and
the second is exactly what a silently host-arch cross-build looks like.

The PE machine reader already existed, privately, in the relay addon builder that
needed the same "a cross-build cannot silently emit host arch" guarantee. It is
now shared rather than copied.

Two seams were unreachable from anything but Windows, so nothing tested them:

- the afterPack hook's win32 block was an inline if/else that only a source-text
  assertion could inspect, and that assertion could not tell the difference
  between the check running and the check being wrapped in `try {} catch {}`. It
  is now `verifyPackagedWindowsNodePty`, and "the marker check runs even where
  the export check cannot" is four spied assertions instead of a string match.
- the rebuild path's verdict read `process` directly, so the branch that fires
  only on the host being rebuilt for was dead on every other host. It now takes
  the host as arguments, and the fs checks, the warning and the failure are all
  exercised from macOS.

Fixtures write a real PE header rather than `MZ fake addon`, since the gate now
reads one. The machine table is pinned to the documented IMAGE_FILE_MACHINE
values, because every fixture builds its header from that table and a table wrong
in both entries would otherwise agree with itself.

* fix(windows): say why the packaged ConPTY fell back, not just that it did

The previous commit resolved the addon by architecture but still had one message
for every way the resolution could land on the published prebuild. Those ways
want opposite remedies, and the one it printed was the remedy the commit before
it had just called wrong:

- no source build in the package at all — the slice has to be built somewhere
  that can build node-pty for the target arch.
- a source build that is there but is the packaging host's architecture, because
  the cross-arch rebuild did not honour `--arch` — re-running that rebuild is the
  fix, and "package on a Windows arm64 host" is neither necessary nor possible.

The second is the common one, since node-pty publishes a prebuild for both
Windows arches and prune keeps the target's on every cross-arch package. So the
old text fired mostly on the case it described least. It now reports which source
builds were skipped and the machine field each carried, and names the rebuild
command.

"Nothing the target can load" had the same problem in reverse: a zero-length or
truncated `conpty.node` got a cross-architecture diagnosis. Every candidate is
now named with what was actually read, including "not a PE image".

The rebuild path asserts the architecture too. A rebuild that ignored `--arch`
was otherwise only visible at packaging, two steps from the command that fixes
it. Arches with no known machine value are left unjudged rather than guessed at.

Two things the extraction broke or nearly broke, both found by mutation:

- the shared PE reader answers `null` where the relay builder's private copy
  returned a number, which would have turned its "node-gyp ignored --arch" error
  into a `TypeError`. Both callers now go through `describePeMachine`.
- the rebuild fixtures stage a script's co-located modules by walking its
  imports, and the walker only understood `from '...'` — so the gate's new
  `require('./windows-pe-machine.cjs')` was left behind and every subprocess test
  failed with a resolution error, which is the exact failure its own comment
  warns about. It now follows `require` and bare side-effect `import` as well,
  and has tests; the fixture stages the gate by walking it rather than by naming
  one file.

Fixtures write real PE headers through one shared builder instead of three
hand-rolled ones.

* fix(windows): run the node-pty addon gates on the Windows job that can

`rebuild-native-deps-node-pty.test.mjs` carries four `skipIf(platform !== 'win32')`
tests. The full suite runs on ubuntu, and the Windows PR job runs an explicit
file list that never named this file -- so those tests were skipped on Linux and
never reached anywhere else. Three of them predate this branch. The Windows job
is added the four node-pty addon suites plus the module-walker one; the comment
above that list already says why it is the right place, which is that the addon
assertions only hold once natives have been rebuilt. Running the path-joining
suites there also covers the separator this gate's candidate list is built from.

The rest is round-three review:

- the rebuild-time arch assertion told a reader "node-gyp did not honour --arch"
  about a file that was not a PE image at all, which is a truncated or
  quarantined artifact and a different command to run. The two now read
  differently, and neither claims the other's cause. Same fix the packaged gate
  had one commit ago, in the place that had not had it yet.
- the missing-addon error said node-pty "would load" a prebuild without checking
  it is there. It says "fall through to" now, which is true either way.
- `isLoadableByArch` had no caller left once the packaged gate started needing
  the raw machine field for its message. Removed rather than kept warm.
- each candidate's header is read once instead of up to three times.
- the module walker's comment claimed every shape that reaches a co-located
  module; it does not follow `projectRequire`/`requireLocal`, and it must not --
  those specifiers resolve against the project root, so following one stages the
  wrong path and the copy fails. Proven by trying: widening the pattern to
  require-shaped names broke nine tests on
  `projectRequire('./config/scripts/...')`. The comment now says what it follows
  and why it stops there.
- a new test resolved a file URL with `.pathname`, which keeps the drive-letter
  slash on Windows -- the very job this commit adds it to.

* docs(windows): put the superseded export-only gate in the past tense

It describes what used to pass a broken addon, so present tense reads as a
description of the gate the same document then explains replacing it.

* fix(windows): repair what running the node-pty suites on Windows exposed

Putting these files on the Windows job turned four assertions red on the first
run. Three of them were in tests that carried `skipIf(platform !== 'win32')` and
had therefore never executed anywhere, on any branch.

- `writeFakeElectronRebuild` emitted the `windows-process-tree` addon a real
  rebuild leaves but never node-pty's, so every Windows test of the rebuild path
  ran against a tree no real rebuild can produce: node-pty "rebuilt" with nothing
  in `build/Release`. The new same-host check reads that state correctly and said
  so. The fake rebuild now writes `build/Release/conpty.node` when it was asked
  to rebuild node-pty for win32, with the marker and the target machine.
- `mkTempProject` never staged `windows-process-tree-creation-time.cjs`. The
  rebuild script reaches it through `projectRequire`, which resolves against the
  project root, so the module walker cannot follow it and must not try. Staged by
  name, with a comment saying which of the two it is. Without it the
  windows-process-tree probe failed to load its own checker and the module joined
  `modulesToRebuild`, which is the second and third red assertion.
- the two `nodePtyAddonPath` cases compared against a literal POSIX string.
  `resolve` returns a drive letter and backslashes on Windows, so they could only
  ever pass off it. Built from segments now, which still pins the `..` traversal
  that is the point of the test.

Verified on macOS: ensure-native-runtime-job-ownership,
verify-packaged-node-pty-job-ownership, windows-pe-machine,
script-module-dependencies, rebuild-native-deps-node-pty, rebuild-native-deps,
rebuild-native-deps-windows-process-tree, ensure-native-runtime -- 109 passed, 6
skipped. The 6 are the Windows-gated rebuild tests, which is the job this change
is aimed at; Windows CI is the arbiter.

* fix(windows): give the packaged fallback a third verdict, for a file that is no image

The packaged gate had two remedies for landing on the published prebuild and
picked between them on `!prebuilt`, which puts a truncated, empty or quarantined
`build/Release/conpty.node` in the cross-arch bucket: "the source build beside it
is the wrong architecture ... re-run with --arch". It is not the wrong
architecture, it is not an architecture, and `--arch` is not the command. The
rebuild-path gate was split for exactly this a commit ago; this is the same split
in the place that had not had it.

Also from review of the settled state:

- the stale-source-build branch ended in a call that happened to throw, so a
  reader could not see it was terminal and the file was read twice to get there.
  The verdict is now an Error the caller throws, built once from the read it
  already did, and shared with `assertCygwinBreakawayDenied` rather than copied.
- four injection seams had no consumer in production or in tests
  (`deniesBreakaway`, `peMachine`, and `exists`/`peMachine` on the rebuild
  verdict). An unused seam is a way for the tested path and the real one to drift
  apart; the tests drive both with real files. Removed.
- the loader table existed in a docblock and in the reference doc, already
  disagreeing about row four. The docblock cites the doc now.
- `peImage` stamped machine `0x0000` for an arch it had no value for, because
  `writeUInt16LE(undefined)` coerces to zero. A fixture that quietly invents the
  field the gates read is the same species of silent lie the gates exist to
  catch; it throws, and a test holds it to that.
- a test named for refusing an unreadable candidate asserted only that something
  threw. Renamed to what it proves.

* fix(windows): make the rebuild fixtures represent a tree that can exist

Second round of what running these suites on Windows exposed. The module the
walker could not stage is now staged, so the probe reached its own checker and
the real reasons surfaced:

- `writeFakeWindowsProcessTree` exported `{}`. The creation-time gate reads
  `supportedProcessDataFlags` off the addon and calls its absence "the tarball
  prebuilt, not a build of the patched source" — correctly. The fixture predates
  that gate and, being Windows-only, never met it. The healthy fake now reports
  the flag, taken from the gate's own constant. Two tests were failing on this,
  the second only because the module then joined `modulesToRebuild`.
- `rebuilds a loadable ConPTY native that lacks Orca job ownership` asked for a
  node-pty rebuild in a tree where node-pty had none of the payload its package
  ships. It gets `writeFakeNodePtyConptyPayload` like its two siblings.

I also tried making the fake rebuild emit `build/Release/conpty.node` the way a
real one does, and backed it out: `restoreNodePtyWindowsConptyRuntime` keys off
that file and then reads `third_party/conpty`, so emitting it in a tree without
the package payload turns one honest gap into an ENOENT two steps away. The
payload fixture is where "node-pty has its addon" belongs.

macOS: ensure-native-runtime-job-ownership, verify-packaged-node-pty-job-ownership,
windows-pe-machine, script-module-dependencies, rebuild-native-deps-node-pty,
rebuild-native-deps, rebuild-native-deps-windows-process-tree,
ensure-native-runtime — 112 passed, 6 skipped. The 6 are the Windows-gated
rebuild tests; Windows CI is the arbiter and is why they are on that job now.

* fix(windows): register the node-pty addon suites in the scope list too

Putting the five suites in the Windows lane's vitest argv gets them run once the
job starts; `WINDOWS_PACKAGE_TESTS` in `pr-code-change-scope.mjs` is what decides
whether the job starts at all. Only the argv was updated, so a PR touching just
`rebuild-native-deps-node-pty.test.mjs` would not have started the Windows job,
and its four Windows-only cases — including the same-host-absent one added here —
would have run on no machine for that PR. Exactly the shape of gap this branch is
about. Both lists now name all five, and `windows-pe-machine`,
`windows-pe-image-fixture` and `script-module-dependencies` join
`NATIVE_RUNTIME_PREFIXES` so a change to the modules themselves starts it too.

`win32-test-lane-registration.test.mjs` exists to catch precisely this and did
not, because its matcher only recognises suite-level gates (`describe.runIf` /
`describe.skipIf`) and a `.win32.` filename. These tests gate per `it`. Widening
it is not this branch's change to make: about thirty files across the repo carry
per-`it` Windows gates and are unregistered, so the ratchet would move far beyond
node-pty. Flagged rather than done.

Message repairs from the same review:

- the non-PE arm of the rebuild-time arch error read "... is not a PE image, so
  nothing can load it, so node-pty would fall back ...". The shared consequence
  clause already opens with ", so".
- the no-source-build packaging error ended "Package this Windows slice on such a
  host", which is wrong advice for the case where the host IS such a host and the
  rebuild simply left nothing — reachable when the artifact is removed before
  prune runs. It now names both readings and points at the beforeBuild output.
- the relay-addon builder blamed `--arch` for a build output that is not a PE at
  all, the same guess the node-pty gate was taught to stop making.
- the patch-drift assertion was a bare `toBe(true)`, so a real drift read as
  "expected false to be true". It now names the two things that can have drifted
  and what happens until they agree.

Neil 5127d1eb3b refactor(windows): vendor the registry addon as @orca/windows-registry (#20438)
* refactor(windows): vendor the registry addon as @orca/windows-registry

windows-native-registry@3.2.2 was last published in 2023 by a single
maintainer. Orca called two of its exports, both read-only, so the whole
dependency is replaced by a local N-API addon under native/.

The vendored addon is read-only by construction: setValue, createKey and
deleteKey are gone, so RegDeleteTreeW no longer ships in the app. Two
upstream defects are also fixed rather than carried over — the name/data
scratch buffers were file-scope statics that concurrent reads would
scribble over, and createKey/deleteKey called .c_str() on a temporary.

Build wiring keeps the existing shape: still an optionalDependency gated
to win32, still excluded from pnpm's allowBuilds so only Orca's own
Windows rebuild runs node-gyp for it, still copied into the packaged
resources. The CI native caches now key on the vendored sources so an
addon.cc edit cannot restore a stale .node.

* test(windows): check the vendored registry addon against reg.exe

The addon is vendored source, so no upstream release proves it still
decodes values the way Orca's PATH readers expect. reg.exe is the only
independent oracle on the box.

* ci(windows): register the registry addon test on the Windows runner

A Windows-gated file self-skips on ubuntu, so without both registrations
it reports success while running on no machine at all.

* fix(build): link the registry addon as a workspace package, not file:

As a `file:` dependency pnpm re-resolved and re-linked the package on
every install, including `--frozen-lockfile` (measured: "added 1" on a
repeat no-op install). That virtual-store churn ran concurrently with
node-gyp reading the same tree and cost @vscode/windows-process-tree its
binding.gyp mid-rebuild, failing package (windows) whenever the native
cache hit and only that module needed building. The linux packaging job
hit the same race from the other side, as a pnpm staging move failure.

A workspace link resolves once and leaves the store alone; repeat
installs are now 55ms no-ops. native/windows-registry is listed
explicitly so `packages:` still does not auto-discover mobile/.

* fix(build): stop tracking node-gyp output for the vendored addon

The build/ tree is generated per host and ABI; the committed copy was
macOS-specific gyp scaffolding from a local build and would have shipped
stale Makefiles to every checkout.

* chore: ignore the vendored addon's node-gyp bin output too

node-gyp also emits bin/<platform>-<abi>/ beside build/; both are per-host
generated output that must never be committed.

Brennan BensonandMerge Sim 1478101342 fix(windows): unblock structured native chat by exposing process creation time (#18986)
* fix(windows): guard process creation times

* fix(windows): ask the relay's bare addon for creation times too

The relay addon build now emits creationTimeMs, but the runtime binding
for the bare addon still declared only CommandLine, so a Windows relay
host requested flag 2 and every row came back without a creation time.
That leaves captureWindowsDescendantSnapshot returning null and
verifyWindowsProcessIdentity false forever on those hosts -- the relay
half of the patch was unreachable.

Naming CreationTime in the adapter is safe because the bare addon is a
content-hashed relay artifact: it ships in the same immutable relay
directory as the bundle reading it, so it can never be older than the
code asking for the bit.

Also bound the win32 guard test on our own row, which the addon can
never fail to answer, so an unconverted FILETIME or a 1601-epoch stamp
fails instead of satisfying a bare count.

* fix(windows): make the compiled addon prove its own CreationTime support

CI caught the real defect: the win32 guard test read
isWindowsProcessStartTimeAvailable() as true and then found 0 rows
carrying creationTimeMs. Unlike node-pty, this package publishes a
prebuilt .node at the same build/Release path node-gyp writes to, so
pnpm patches the source tree and leaves that binary alone. A host then
holds a patched lib/index.js -- ProcessDataFlag.CreationTime and all --
over a binary that ignores flag 4, and neither a load check nor a path
check can see the difference.

So the binary now says so itself: addon.cc exports
supportedProcessDataFlags, lib/index.js re-exports it, and

  - windows-process-tree-creation-time.cjs asserts it during install,
    which is what forces a from-source rebuild. It is shared by the Node
    probe in ensure-native-runtime.mjs and the Electron probe in
    rebuild-native-deps.mjs, exactly as node-pty-job-ownership.cjs is --
    the Electron half matters because that probe decides onlyModules, so
    without it the packaged app would ship the stale prebuilt.
  - isWindowsProcessStartTimeAvailable() gates on the reported bit, not
    the enum. Believing the enum is worse than reporting false: the
    descendant snapshot returns null forever and the exit proof latches
    unverifiable while structured chat believes it has a reaper.

rebuildNodeRuntimeModules could not actually have rebuilt this package:
the patched binding.gyp includes deps/node-addon-api, which the tarball
does not ship, and node-gyp must run from the physical dir.

Also closes the relay repair path's divergence: repairCreationTimeSources
wrote the C++ but not the buildNode splat or the tree-node typing, and
assertPatchApplied checked neither, so a repaired tree passed as patched
with buildProcessTree silently dropping the field.

The guard test is unchanged.

* fix(windows): keep the process-tree patch LF-only

windows-process-tree-patch-contract.test.mjs requires the patch file to
carry no CR bytes. Regenerating through pnpm patch-commit emitted 199 of
them, because the creation-time change is the first to touch files the
package ships as CRLF (src/process.h, src/process_worker.cc,
src/addon.cc, lib/index.js, lib/index.ts, the typings) -- and #17886's
own hunks over binding.gyp and src/process_commandline.cc carry the rest.

Stripping them is safe and changes nothing the lockfile records: pnpm
hashes patches CRLF-normalized, so the digest stays
e66202cc623996d02040c93449eb9ae353fddadf426cb53202a59ee710ee6fe7 and now
equals the file's plain sha256 too. It also still applies -- verified
against a deleted store entry, not a warm one -- and the precedent was
already there: the previous patch was LF-only and had been patching
those same CRLF files all along.

ensure-native-runtime.test.mjs stages the siblings the script loads at
module scope into its temp project. The import walk added by #17886 sees
`from './x.mjs'` only, so the createRequire'd .cjs siblings still have to
be named, and this PR adds a second one.

bfc6a262a7 fix(windows): read command lines from the kernel, not each process's PEB (#17886)
* fix(windows): read command lines from the kernel, not each process's PEB

MDE incident D scored Orca for suspicious memory activity: the vendored
`@vscode/windows-process-tree` recovered every process's command line by
opening it with `PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION | PROCESS_VM_READ` and chaining
three `ReadProcessMemory` calls through the PEB and
`RTL_USER_PROCESS_PARAMETERS`. On a 750ms/2s cadence over the whole table that
is the credential-dumping primitive, whatever the intent.

Windows 8.1 added `NtQueryInformationProcess`'s `ProcessCommandLineInformation`
class (60), which returns the same string as a kernel-built `UNICODE_STRING`
under `PROCESS_QUERY_LIMITED_INFORMATION` alone. Electron's floor is Windows
10, so every supported OS has it. The PEB reader stays behind a process-wide
latch that only `STATUS_INVALID_INFO_CLASS`/`NOT_SUPPORTED`/`NOT_IMPLEMENTED`
can set; a pid that merely denied a handle does not re-arm it, because
`PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION` implicitly grants the limited right and so cannot
be obtained where the weaker open already failed.

The same hunk drops `PROCESS_VM_READ` from `GetProcessMemoryUsage` and
`GetCpuUsage`, which acquired it and never read an address space.

Measured on Windows 11 (514 processes), counted in-process by swapping the
addon's import table entries for counting stubs, per CommandLine scan:
`ReadProcessMemory` 1128 -> 0, desired access 0x0410 -> 0x1000, p50 12.7ms ->
9.3ms. Command lines were byte-identical on every process both readers
recovered (376/376, 379/379 across runs), including a 24,068-character argv
with quotes, non-ASCII and trailing whitespace, and a WOW64 target. Three
processes that refused the old rights granted the new one; none went the other
way.

* chore(deps): refresh the windows-process-tree patch hash in the lockfile

* fix(windows): drop the PEB fallback and detect the unpatched prebuilt

Review of #17886 found three ways the reader could still perform, or silently
resume, the primitive it exists to remove.

The class-missing latch was a permanent, process-wide, one-way downgrade back
to the PEB read, and any single target returning STATUS_INVALID_INFO_CLASS /
NOT_SUPPORTED / NOT_IMPLEMENTED could trip it. On an EDR-hooked ntdll -- the
entire premise of this change -- a hook that does not recognise class 60 would
have restored PROCESS_VM_READ plus three ReadProcessMemory per pid per scan for
the life of the process, unobservably, on precisely the machines this was
written for. The fallback is deleted rather than guarded: GetProcessCommandLine
now returns false and leaves the command line empty, which callers already
handle, so the addon imports no ReadProcessMemory at all.

That absence is what makes the property checkable on the artifact. The
published 0.8.0 tarball ships a loadable prebuilt built from unpatched source;
it is node-addon-api, so a bare require() accepts it, allowBuilds is false and
CI installs with --ignore-scripts, and a rebuild that soft-exits on a Windows
file lock leaves it in place. Source-text guards could never see it.
windowsProcessTreeAddonReadsProcessMemory() checks the compiled binary instead,
and is wired into the install check, the rebuild, and the relay build.

The repair itself never worked: `git apply` run inside a work tree prefixes
patch paths with the cwd-relative prefix, skips what does not match, and exits
0, so the branch always fell through to its own post-check throw. The package
dir is always under the project root, while the fixture that covered it was in
%TEMP%, outside any repo. Blinding git with GIT_DIR fixes it, and the test now
runs inside a real work tree.

Also from review: bounds-check the returned UNICODE_STRING against the
allocation (not the size the second query clobbers) and cap the probe so a
bogus length cannot bad_alloc a whole scan; test NT_SUCCESS explicitly; value-
initialize ProcessInfo, which left `memory` as stack garbage -- measured, 82
processes reported the same bogus working set; and correct a comment in
windows-process-table.ts that still described the command line as a PEB read.

Re-measured on Windows 11 (543 processes): ReadProcessMemory 1128 -> 0, with
the symbol absent from the import table so the IAT hook finds no slot to
count; desired access 0x0410 -> 0x1000 on all 543 opens; p50 13.5 -> 12.3ms;
405/405 command lines byte-identical including a 24,087-character quoted
non-ASCII argv and a WOW64 target; 3 processes recovered only by the new path,
0 only by the old.

* chore(deps): refresh the windows-process-tree patch hash in the lockfile

* test(scripts): stage a script's local imports into the native-runtime fixture

ensure-native-runtime.mjs gained an import of windows-process-tree-gyp-rebuild.mjs,
but the fixture copied only the script itself, so every case in the suite died
with ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND before reaching its own assertions. copyScriptWithLocalModules
already walks a script's co-located imports for exactly this reason -- its own doc
comment names this failure -- so use it rather than listing files by hand.

The two Windows cases still fail here, on a missing node-pty ConPTY runtime that
also fails on main; this only stops a resolution error from standing in front of
whatever they were meant to catch.

* fix(windows): route a locked stale addon to the Windows file-lock message

`pnpm install` with Orca running aborted with a raw EPERM stack. The stale-binary
guard -- which deletes an addon that still imports ReadProcessMemory so a skipped
rebuild cannot use it -- ran outside the try whose catch classifies Windows file
locks, and whose message is literally "Close running Orca/Electron/dev processes
for this worktree": exactly this situation.

Measured rather than assumed: rmSync against a loaded (memory-mapped) addon throws
EPERM, and `force: true` does not help, since it only swallows ENOENT. Cold copies
of the same file delete fine. So the delete threw a page before the handler that
knows what it means.

Moving the guard inside the try is the whole fix; the classifier already matches
the EPERM text. The new case runs the real script against a temp project whose
stale addon is held open by a live child process, and fails against the old
placement with the raw `syscall: 'rm'` stack the report described.

* feat(windows): warn once when command-line recovery is refused host-wide

Removing the PEB fallback removed a total-defeat vector, but it left a cliff: if
NtQueryInformationProcess(ProcessCommandLineInformation) is refused -- a hooked
ntdll that does not know class 60 -- every command line comes back empty and
agent identity matching silently degrades to image names. The addon still loads
and still enumerates, so every health check the app has stays green. A cliff
nobody can see is the failure mode this area keeps producing.

The querying process is the unambiguous probe. A process can always open itself
with PROCESS_QUERY_LIMITED_INFORMATION, so its own command line coming back empty
means the query is refused for every process -- not that some target denied a
handle, which is normal for roughly a quarter of the table. Keying on our own row
rather than a fraction means no threshold to tune and no false positive on a
hardened box where most processes deny.

One warning per session, gated on the CommandLine flag actually being requested so
a future identity-only reader cannot trip it. The suite's own SELF fixture gains a
command line for the same reason: a self row without one is the alarm, not a
detail.

* fix(windows): check the relay's staged addon at load, and answer tri-state

Two gaps in the ReadProcessMemory check, both about what it does not see.

It only ever looked at node_modules/@vscode/windows-process-tree. A relay host
has no node_modules of ours: it loads ./windows-process-tree.node staged beside
the bundle. The relay build asserts the symbol on the artifact it produces, but a
bundle and the addon beside it redeploy independently, so a host that has not
taken a new bundle keeps whatever binary is already there -- and the published
prebuilt is node-addon-api, so it binds cleanly and then walks every process's
address space. loadWindowsProcessTree now checks that file too and refuses it,
falling back to the CIM scan: slower, but not the thing an EDR quarantines a host
for. The predicate is duplicated rather than imported, because the config-script
copy is install-time tooling that drags in node-gyp and child_process, and this
module is bundled into the app and the relay.

And it returned false for a binary that is not there. All three callers happened
to be safe, but the name read as a safety predicate, so a future caller would take
a missing binary as verified. inspectWindowsProcessTreeAddon() now answers
clean/unpatched/missing over an explicit binary path -- which is also what lets
the relay's staged addon be checked at all -- and each caller states which state
it acts on.

Both are covered by cases that fail against the old code: without the load-time
check the unpatched staged addon is bound and the CIM fallback never runs, and
with 'missing' folded back into 'clean' the absence case fails outright.

* test(windows): load the addon in beforeAll, not at collection time

loadAddon() ran while the file was being collected, so on a Windows checkout with
no built addon the require threw before any case existed and took the seven
patch-text cases down with it -- cases that read only the patch file and need no
binary at all. Verified both ways against a deliberately unresolvable addon path:
at collection time vitest reports "no tests" for the file; from beforeAll the
seven text cases pass and only the three addon cases go.

* fix(deps): normalize the windows-process-tree patch to LF and let pnpm own its hash

`pnpm install --frozen-lockfile` failed on this branch on every platform with
ERR_PNPM_LOCKFILE_CONFIG_MISMATCH, which breaks CI and the release build.

Two coupled defects. The patch file was committed with CRLF -- 174 CR bytes,
against zero on main -- and `.gitattributes` pins `/config/patches/*.patch -text`
precisely so checkout cannot convert it, so those bytes reached every runner. And
pnpm hashes a patch **LF-normalized**, so the raw sha256 of a CRLF file is a value
pnpm never computes:

  raw sha256      322965470c05f63d8527f7d8e892ee26ee444136b66b57fd64c362a9f2ff05d1
  LF-normalized   f8ea245391c94da5770045aeea01fa6de466c2199c6ef46b5b769b398aa9823e

The lockfile carried the raw one, at all three sites. It is the only one of the
seven patches where the two digests differ, which is why the other six passed.

Normalized the patch to LF and took pnpm's own value from
`pnpm install --no-frozen-lockfile`; nothing here is hand-computed. With the file
LF-only the two interpretations coincide, so the lockfile, the contract test's
no-CR assertion and its hash assertion all agree at one number -- and
`config/scripts/windows-process-tree-patch-contract.test.mjs`, which was red on
this branch for the same reason, is green again. The lockfile diff is exactly the
three hash lines.

The regression check is the installer, not a digest. Two separate reviews
"verified" the shipped hash by recomputing sha256(patchBytes) and matching the
lockfile; both were wrong, because both repeated the same wrong assumption about
which bytes pnpm hashes. A check that reproduces the original mistake is not
independent. So the new case runs `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --lockfile-only
--ignore-scripts` against a copy of the manifest, lockfile and patches, and
asserts exit 0 -- verified by deletion: restoring the shipped hash fails it with
the exact ERR_PNPM_LOCKFILE_CONFIG_MISMATCH from the branch's package (windows)
job.

Also corrected the `.gitattributes` comment claiming pnpm hashes patches
byte-for-byte. The `-text` setting is right -- `git apply` needs the exact bytes --
but that sentence is the claim that produced the wrong hash twice.

* ci(windows): run the process-tree patch suites in CI

Both suites only self-skip off Windows, so the binary-level check that the
addon carries no ReadProcessMemory passed vacuously in every lane.

* fix(windows): force core.autocrlf=input for the patch repair

My LF normalization of the windows-process-tree patch broke the `git apply`
repair path introduced in this PR. The two are coupled and I checked only one.

Those 174 CR bytes were not editor noise. They sat on exactly the pre-image
lines and nowhere else -- 107/107 in src/process.cc, 67/67 in
src/process_commandline.cc, 0 on every added or context line -- because
@vscode/windows-process-tree@0.8.0 ships those two sources as CRLF. Normalizing
the patch made its pre-image stop matching the file it is applied against.

Measured, reconstructing the true CRLF pre-image from the pre-normalization
blob and applying the current LF patch:

  core.autocrlf   plain   -c core.autocrlf=input
  true            exit 0  exit 0
  input           exit 0  exit 0
  false           exit 1  exit 0

`false` is Git's own built-in default and what "checkout as-is" selects in the
Git for Windows installer -- on this box the `true` that hides it comes from the
installer's system gitconfig, not from anything in the repo. There the repair
throws, ensureWindowsProcessTreeCommandLinePatch reports "still reads the PEB,
and repairing it ... failed", isWindowsNativeLockError does not match that text,
and `pnpm install` dies with no path forward.

Forcing the mode rather than `--ignore-whitespace`: both fix every cell and both
leave the applied file fully LF, but `input` relaxes line endings only, so a hunk
whose real content drifted is still rejected. The repair rewrites a
security-relevant source file; it should stay strict about everything except the
thing that is legitimately ambiguous.

Not reverting the patch to CRLF: windows-process-tree-patch-contract.test.mjs
(pre-existing on main) forbids CR bytes in it, and pnpm computes the same hash
either way. LF plus the forced mode is the end state.

The suite could not have caught this. The fixture built its pre-image from the
patch itself and joined with '\n', so fixture and patch agreed by construction on
any encoding -- once again a test that passes without its fix. It now emits the
CRLF the real package ships, and the case runs under both autocrlf modes pinned
through a temp HOME gitconfig, because the repair blinds git to the repo and so
reads global config. Verified by deletion in both directions: with the flag
removed the autocrlf=false case fails with the exact "still reads the PEB" dead
end while autocrlf=true still passes, and with the fixture back on LF all eight
cases pass with no fix present at all.

Also corrected the .gitattributes comment I added last commit. It said `git
apply` needs the bytes the patch was written against, which is now false -- the
pinned bytes are LF and the bytes it was written against are CRLF. That is the
same class of confident-and-wrong claim that produced the bad hash twice.

* fix(windows): assert the rebuilt addon, and install the patch for real in tests

Three follow-ups from review.

**The packaged binary had no check.** The relay build asserts its own artifact
and ensure-native-runtime asserts what it loads, but nothing looked at the addon
copied into the packaged app -- so a rebuild that silently produced the upstream
reader shipped. `rebuild-native-deps.mjs` now asserts `clean` on it after
`rebuild()`. This is also the caller D4's tri-state was missing: every existing
site branches on `=== 'unpatched'`, so `missing` still behaved exactly like
`clean` everywhere, which was the thing making it a state rather than a boolean.
Here both non-clean states fail, and they fail differently: after a rebuild that
reported success, an absent binary is a broken build, not an absence to shrug at.

The fake `rebuild()` had to start producing a binary for that to mean anything,
so it now emits stand-in bytes and takes `addon: 'clean' | 'unpatched' | 'none'`.
Verified by deletion: with the assertion removed both new cases pass.

**The frozen-install case could not see a patch at all.** `--lockfile-only`
resolves and never applies one, so its coverage stops at hash consistency. Added
a case that installs `@vscode/windows-process-tree@0.8.0` for real with the patch
and asserts the materialized `src/process_commandline.cc` carries the marker and
no longer carries `ReadProcessMemory` -- about 1.5s for the pair.

Correcting the brief on that one: it does **not** catch the `git apply` breakage
from the previous commit. Measured -- with `-c core.autocrlf=input` removed it
passes cleanly, because `pnpm install` uses pnpm's own patch applier and never
runs our repair script. What it does catch is a patch pnpm can no longer apply:
corrupting one pre-image line fails both cases. The repair path stays covered by
the CRLF fixture in rebuild-native-deps-node-pty.test.mjs.

Worth recording, since it decides whether the LF normalization was safe at all:
pnpm applies the LF patch to the CRLF tarball sources without complaint, and
materializes them as LF with the marker present and `ReadProcessMemory` absent.
The primary install path was never affected -- only the `git apply` fallback was.

**Dead timeout.** The frozen-install case passed `timeoutMs: 300_000` to the
spawn while vitest capped the case itself at 30s, so on a cold runner vitest
would have killed it first. Both cases now declare the budget they use.

* test(windows): route the frozen-install check through the pnpm invocation owner

The new patched-dependencies check hand-rolled a PATH walk naming 'pnpm.cmd',
which the windows batch shim spawn boundary ratchet rejects: pnpm-cli-invocation
already owns that decision for every other script, and its allowlist only
shrinks.

Reuse resolvePnpmCliInvocation for the command and prefixArgs, and the shared
resolveCliCommand for the presence check, so no shim name is spelled here. Its
`shell` flag is dropped because runProcessSync refuses it and already drives a
shim through the interpreter itself.

Neil 2b1254d681 fix(windows): own PTY process trees with job objects (#15755)
* fix(windows): own PTY process trees with job objects

Teardown used to answer 'is this tree mine, and how do I kill it?' by
scraping the process table, walking parent pids back to Orca, and running
taskkill /T /F only if the walk said yes. Every step is a guess, and the
code said so itself: windows-pty-root-identity.ts:35 already named the
fix -- 'an inherited handle / Job Object'.

The guesses fail in the ways users report. A pid walk cannot survive pid
reuse, so teardown refused whenever it could not prove ownership, and a
refused kill is an orphaned agent tree holding the worktree directory
open (#9045, #10475, #10087). A descendant that reparented is invisible
to the walk. The scrape itself could be blocked by policy, which read as
'no evidence'.

node-pty now creates a job object per ConPTY and assigns the shell under
CREATE_SUSPENDED, before it can spawn anything -- assigning afterwards
leaves a window in which a fast child escapes. Termination is one
TerminateJobObject; liveness is QueryInformationJobObject.

Verified on Windows 11 against a shell whose grandchild was spawned
detached: job membership came back [shell, grandchild] and one call
killed both. Neither a parent-pid walk nor GetConsoleProcessList sees
that grandchild -- it leaves the console and reparents, which is exactly
the claude.exe/node.exe/cmd.exe orphan in #9045.

KILL_ON_JOB_CLOSE means a daemon that dies without unwinding no longer
strands shells (#9195, #10415). The job is the daemon's, not the app's,
so an app-main crash still leaves sessions alive -- the guarantee
win-crash-survival-e2e asserts.

Both entry points report unavailable rather than a false success when a
pty has no job: an outer job without BREAKAWAY_OK can refuse the
assignment, and a pty from an older build has none. Reading 'we could
not tell' as 'already dead' is the original bug, so the old probe stays
as the fallback.

* test(windows): pin job ownership against a real detached grandchild

The unit tests pin the contract; this pins what the contract is for. A
grandchild spawned detached leaves the pane's console and reparents, so
GetConsoleProcessList and a parent-pid walk both miss it -- that is the
process that outlived its pane and held the worktree directory open.

Includes a guard that this build actually has job support, so a node-pty
rebuilt from unpatched sources fails loudly instead of letting every
assertion pass vacuously.

* fix(windows): correct the job liveness contract to what Windows actually does

I claimed an emptied tree would report [] and that this was the evidence
a stale registry entry lacks (#15549). Running it on Windows 11 showed
otherwise: node-pty drops its handle record and closes the job when the
shell exits, so a dead tree reports null.

Null therefore means unverifiable in the sense of
docs/reference/ssh-execution-boundary.md -- no job support, not a ConPTY,
or no longer tracked -- and is never evidence that processes died. A
caller reading it as proof of death would have been right by accident
after a normal exit and wrong on a host that refused the assignment.

What the API does add is descendant liveness for a tree that is still
tracked, including children that detached from the console.

* fix(windows): stop a clean shell exit from reaping backgrounded processes

Measured on Windows 11: with JOB_OBJECT_LIMIT_KILL_ON_JOB_CLOSE on the
per-PTY job, releasing the handle when the shell exits also killed
whatever the user had backgrounded. Typing 'exit' in a pane reaped a
detached server that survived before this patch.

That is a behaviour change nobody asked for. The approved change was
that killing the terminal daemon reaps its shells -- not that a clean
exit reaps your background job. The job's purpose is to make an EXPLICIT
teardown exact, which TerminateJobObject still does.

Reaping a dead daemon's shells now needs the daemon-level job the design
called for: the daemon assigns itself, children inherit membership, and
its closure on daemon death reaps them without touching clean-exit
semantics. Not in this PR; noted in the reference doc.

* test(windows): pin that a clean exit leaves backgrounded work alone

The counterpart to the tree-kill test. Without it, re-adding
JOB_OBJECT_LIMIT_KILL_ON_JOB_CLOSE would look like a tightening rather
than the regression it is.

* fix(windows): stop a winpty pty id from matching a ConPTY job

winpty.cc and conpty.cc each mint their 'pty' id from an independent
counter, and windowsPtyAgent stores both in the same _pty field. So a
winpty-backed terminal's id can collide with a live ConPTY baton -- and
closing that pane would have terminated an unrelated pane's entire
process tree.

Both job entry points now take the shell pid and the native side refuses
unless GetProcessId(hShell) matches, which makes the id unforgeable.

Two more from the same read-through:
- ResumeThread's failure was ignored. A shell left suspended is a pane
  that never prints and never exits, which is far harder to diagnose
  than a failed spawn; it now cleans up and throws.
- handle->hJob was assigned before LoadConptyDll, which can throw. A
  baton carrying a job but never reaching SetupExitCallback has nothing
  left to close it, so the assignment moved down beside hShell.

* docs(windows): record the unsynchronised node-pty baton table

Pre-existing upstream -- the exit thread erases while the main thread
reads -- but terminatePtyJob adds an instance of it, so it belongs in
writing rather than in someone's head.

* fix(windows): close four gaps found in review

BREAKAWAY. The per-PTY job set no limits, so a child asking for
CREATE_BREAKAWAY_FROM_JOB was refused with ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED.
Installers, msiexec and some updater and service-control paths spawn
that way deliberately -- they worked before this patch and would have
failed only inside an Orca terminal, which is the worst shape a bug
report can take. JOB_OBJECT_LIMIT_BREAKAWAY_OK restores it; a child
still has to ask, so ordinary descendants stay owned.

EMPTY IS NOT UNAVAILABLE. The native reader returns an empty list --
not an error -- when CreateToolhelp32Snapshot fails, which is what an
EDR hook or a restricted token produces. Callers read that as 'nothing
is running' and teardown concludes a live PTY root is already gone. The
snapshot must contain the querying process; nothing else is
unfalsifiable, and one predicate catches empty, truncated and
permission-filtered tables alike.

NO DEADLINE. Replacing execFile dropped its 3s timeout. The vendored
reader latches a module-global while a request is in flight and clears
it only after draining its callbacks, with no try/catch -- so one wedge
leaves every later call queued behind a promise that never settles, and
the process table is dead for the life of the app. The bound is back.

GUESSED IMAGE PATH. executablePath was derived from the first
space-delimited token, which reads 'C:\Program' out of an unquoted
'C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe ...'. Wrong evidence is worse than
none, and the only consumer already had the full path in , so
the field is gone rather than repaired.

Also: remove_pty_baton no longer sits inside assert(), which NDEBUG
would compile away along with the call, and the job accessors hold a
lock across lookup and use -- handle values are recycled, so an
unguarded read could pass the shell-pid check against an unrelated
process and terminate the wrong job.

* fix(windows): apply the job lock once per accessor

The patch script matched a string its own replacement still contained, so
PtyTerminateJob got two lock_guards named guard and PtyListJobProcessIds
got none. MSVC caught it: error C2374 redefinition.

* test(windows): pin that a child can still break away from the job

Verified on Windows 11: 'start /b' writes its marker and no access-denied
appears. Without JOB_OBJECT_LIMIT_BREAKAWAY_OK this fails, and it fails
only inside an Orca terminal -- so the failure would look like Orca
corrupting unrelated software rather than like a job-object change.

* fix(windows): stop the ownership guard from reading a closing handle

The guard called GetProcessId(hShell) to prove identity, but the exit
watcher closes hShell on another thread -- so the guard could read a
closed handle, and under strict handle checks that is fatal rather than
merely wrong. Worse, it widened the gap between validating hJob and
using it from two instructions to a kernel round-trip, and handle values
recycle: the likeliest occupant of a freshly recycled value in this
process is another pane's job.

The pid never needed a handle. It is captured at spawn and compared as a
DWORD, so the guard touches no handle at all, and hShell is now closed
inside the same lock as hJob.

Also from review:
- reject CR/LF in a cmd argument. cmd ends the command at a raw line
  break whatever the quote state, so there is no escape for it; encoding
  one anyway truncates the argument and can leave the remainder to run
  as a command. Agent prompts are this encoder's motivating input.
- ask the process table only for the fields a caller needs. Memory and
  CommandLine each cost an OpenProcess per process, inline, for every
  process on the box -- and the 1024 bound is patched out. Ancestry
  reads now skip both.
- corpus gains the degenerate quote-only and two-quote arguments.
- PtyListJobProcessIds' docblock still taught the empty-list contract
  that was corrected on the TS side, and now records that the ConPTY
  console host is never a job member.
- drop a write to NumberOfAssignedProcesses, which is output-only.
- pty_baton::hShell is initialised; ownsShell was only safe because &&
  short-circuited ahead of it.

The backgrounded-child test is rescoped: 'start /b' uses
CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE, not CREATE_BREAKAWAY_FROM_JOB, so it proves job
membership does not block backgrounding -- not that BREAKAWAY_OK works.
That flag rests on the Win32 contract, and I have said so rather than
letting the test imply coverage it does not have.

* fix(windows): bound retries after the process table wedges

The 3s deadline stops a caller hanging, but the timed-out call leaves its
callback in the vendored module's queue -- and that queue drains only
when the latched request completes, which in this wedge never happens.
Retrying at the caller's poll rate would add a closure per tick forever.
A 30s cooldown bounds it to one probe, and a late callback clears the
cooldown because it proves the reader recovered.

Also pins the deadlock invariant in the patch: the exit thread's lock
must close before tsfn.BlockingCall, because that waits on the JS thread
and the JS thread can be waiting on the same mutex inside
PtyTerminateJob. Correct today by scoping; a comment so a later refactor
does not widen it.

* revert(windows): drop the field-selection API, which cannot pay off

I added it for a real perf finding -- Memory and CommandLine each cost an
OpenProcess per process -- and then never wired a caller, so the claim
that ancestry reads skip them was wrong.

Wiring it would have been worse than leaving it dead. The only ancestry
consumer is the teardown identity probe, which needs a snapshot that
started AFTER it asked, for pid-recycle detection. Bypassing the shared
reader to get narrow fields would let that request join a scan already in
flight -- trading a correctness guarantee for milliseconds.

Field selection only pays off if callers can ask for less, and they
cannot: one shared snapshot serves every caller so a 32-wide teardown
collapses into a single scan, which means it has to carry every field.
The reasoning now lives next to the flags instead of in a dead export.

* fix(process): three P1s from review — a crash vector and two wedge bugs

STDIN EPIPE COULD TAKE DOWN THE MAIN PROCESS. A child that exits without
reading makes the queued write fail with EPIPE, and an unhandled error on
a stream is an uncaught exception. The child's own error listener does
not cover its stdin stream, so runProcess({ input }) against a
short-lived child was a crash, not a failed call.

THE COOLDOWN LEAKED A BATCH PER CYCLE INSTEAD OF BOUNDING IT. At expiry
every concurrent caller passed the check before any of them re-armed it,
so each enqueued a callback into the still-latched native queue and each
cycle leaked another batch. The cooldown is now re-armed BEFORE probing,
so exactly one caller gets through.

A SYNCHRONOUS THROW LEFT ITS DEADLINE RUNNING. The timer was declared
inside the try, so catch could not clear it; it fired later and wedged a
reader that had already recovered. Hoisted and cleared, and wedge state
now carries a generation so a request that lost its deadline cannot
mutate it on behalf of the one that replaced it.

Found by review once the prompts were short enough for the reviewer to
finish -- the previous two rounds died on prompt length.

* fix(process): stop a stream error from crashing the main process

Same class as the stdin EPIPE finding, two instances further on: stdout
and stderr had data listeners and no error listeners, and an unhandled
error on a stream is an uncaught exception.

Scoped to runProcess, which owns the child outright. spawnProcess hands
the streams to its caller, and a blanket handler there defeats callers
that track and remove their own listeners -- the SSH ProxyCommand
transport does exactly that, and its cleanup test caught the attempt.
Documented on spawnProcess so the boundary is explicit rather than
inferred.

* fix(windows): validate the ConPTY DLL before creating the process

LoadConptyDll throws when conpty.dll is missing -- a real state, and one
this branch hit during development. It ran after CreateProcessW and
ResumeThread but before the baton and the exit watcher were installed,
so a throw leaked the job, process and thread handles and left an
untracked shell tree running. Once per attempt, so a broken install
accumulates orphan shells on every retry.

Resolving the DLL first costs nothing and leaves exactly two throws
after creation: the CreateProcessW failure, where nothing exists yet,
and the resume failure, which already cleans up after itself.

This also closes the same leak for hProcess and hThread, which predates
the job work.

* feat(windows): add the daemon-level job the design called for

The plan specified two nested jobs and I built one. That gap is why
dropping KILL_ON_JOB_CLOSE from the per-PTY job cost the approved
guarantee that a dead daemon reaps its shells -- I had one job trying to
answer two questions, and the two answers conflict.

They are separate jobs. The per-PTY job answers 'kill exactly this
pane's tree, now', and cannot be kill-on-close because its handle is
released when the shell exits, which would reap whatever the user
backgrounded. The daemon assigns itself to a second job that IS
kill-on-close; its handle is released only when the daemon dies.
Children inherit membership, so every pty is covered and the per-PTY
jobs nest inside it.

Daemon, never app: an app-main crash must still leave sessions alive,
which win-crash-survival-e2e asserts. Both jobs carry BREAKAWAY_OK, or a
child asking to break away is refused at whichever level lacks it.

Restores #9195 and #10415, which I withdrew from this PR earlier.

* docs(windows): record what the host job does not cover

An app-hosted PTY gets a per-PTY job but no crash reaping, because the
alternative is a kill-on-close job on the app -- which is precisely what
the crash-survival guarantee forbids.

* ci(windows): run the win32 suites in the PR windows job

Both were skip-on-non-win32 and had only ever run on one machine I drive
by hand -- which went unreachable at exactly the moment I needed to
verify the percent-escaping fix. Verification that depends on one box is
not verification.

The job already builds node-pty from patched source and already runs a
useConptyDll test, so the ConPTY runtime files are in place by this
step. This also makes the encoder a gate: the corpus is the only thing
standing between an agent prompt and a mangled argv, and it now runs
against real cmd.exe on every PR.

* fix(deps): refresh the lockfile for the current patch hashes

pnpm records a hash per patched dependency, and I regenerated both
patches repeatedly across the review rounds without refreshing the
lockfile. Every local run used --frozen-lockfile's looser sibling, so
nothing caught it until CI did:

  ERR_PNPM_LOCKFILE_CONFIG_MISMATCH  Cannot proceed with the frozen
  installation. The current "patchedDependencies" configuration doesn't
  match the value found in the lockfile

Verified with pnpm install --frozen-lockfile locally this time.

* ci(windows): build node-pty from source before the win32 suites

CI proved the encoder fix on real cmd.exe -- 26/26 -- and in the same run
proved the job suite had been testing an unpatched binary. node-pty
prefers its upstream prebuild, which does not contain this patch, so
every job-object export was absent and isPtyJobOwnershipAvailable() was
false.

That guard is why the failure was loud rather than a vacuous pass, and
it is the reason the assertion exists.

Packaging was never affected: rebuild-native-deps.mjs already builds
node-pty from source for Electron and restores the ConPTY runtime files.
The gap was the node-runtime test environment only.

Not changing requiresPatchedNodePtySourceBuild's win32 exemption here.
Its premise -- that the patch is Unix-only -- is now false, but lifting
it also needs pnpm rebuild to force a source build, and I cannot
validate that on macOS and Linux from here. Recorded as a follow-up
instead of changed blind.

* test(windows): gate the host-job guarantee in CI

The daemon-level job had one hand-run proof and no automated coverage --
the same shape of gap that let an unpatched node-pty go unnoticed until
CI caught it.

It needs a real second process, because the assertion is about what
happens when that process is force-killed: a host in a kill-on-close job
must strand neither its pty nor a grandchild spawned detached, which is
the process a parent-pid walk cannot see.

Runs in the Windows PR job alongside the per-pty and encoder suites, so
both halves of the two-job design are now gated rather than asserted.

* fix(windows): serialise host-job creation

Two callers racing PtyAssignCurrentProcessToJob would each create a job,
put the process in both, and leak the first handle -- and the handle is
what keeps a kill-on-close job alive, so a leaked one is never released.
'Only JS calls it' is not a guarantee: a worker thread with its own
N-API env shares these statics.

Also records the ordering requirement it depends on.
AssignProcessToJobObject adds only the named process; children inherit
membership, but a pty that already exists does not join retroactively
and would not be reaped. The daemon assigns at startup, before the
ConPTY warmup and before any session, which is correct today and now
stated rather than implied.

* fix(daemon): keep the host job off the startup path

Assigning the host job at daemon startup resolves the node-pty native
module, which loads the ConPTY addon -- and paying that before the
endpoint is published delayed readiness enough that daemon-boot-smoke
failed on windows-latest, deterministically.

windows-conpty-warmup already carries the comment for this exact
hazard ('setImmediate keeps the ready/handshake path ahead of the
warm-up') and I put an eager load in front of it anyway.

Moved to the pty spawn path, which already pays ConPTY cost, and
memoised. Children inherit job membership, so assigning immediately
before the first spawn still covers every pty -- and nothing can spawn
one before the endpoint exists.

Neil 057fbfcffc perf(windows): read the process table natively instead of forking PowerShell (#15749)
* perf(windows): read the process table natively instead of forking PowerShell

Seven independent readers each forked powershell.exe to run
Get-CimInstance Win32_Process, with a wmic fallback that Windows 11 24H2
has removed. On a domain-joined host with PowerShell Transcription
enabled by policy, one of them running every ~2s recorded ~289GB across
1.4 million files (#15209). The same scan cost ~700ms and ran per pane
(#15036), and a Group Policy or AV block turned it into 'unavailable',
which callers read as 'no evidence' -- which is how a PTY tree survives
its own teardown (#9045, #10475).

A Toolhelp32 snapshot answers the same question with no child process.
Measured on Windows 11 with 1050 processes, p50/p95:

  pid+ppid+name          15.9 / 17.5 ms
  +memory +command line  30.6 / 33.7 ms
  Get-CimInstance         706 / 723  ms

Two upstream defects needed patching, both found by running it on real
hardware. The binding requires Spectre-mitigated libraries our agents do
not carry (node-pty is patched the same way). And enumeration stopped
after 1024 processes: on a host with 1051 the module returned exactly
1024, and the querying process was itself among the 27 missing -- a
truncated snapshot silently hides the descendants teardown is looking
for, which is the failure this whole change exists to remove.

Migrated: the foreground/descendant reader (the #15209 scraper and the
teardown identity gate) and the port scanner's PID attribution. NOT
migrated: the memory collector and three identity probes, which need
Win32_Process.CreationDate and have no native equivalent. Start time is
a proxy for identity anyway; an inherited job handle is the real answer,
so those belong with the job-object work rather than here.

Packaging follows the windows-native-registry contract exactly:
optional, absent from onlyBuiltDependencies so macOS/Linux never run
node-gyp, win32-only in the packaged runtime. Asserted by the existing
contract test, which also stops pinning a whole source literal that only
tested its own formatting.

* chore(process): ratchet the child_process allowlist down

windows-foreground-process-rows.ts no longer spawns anything, so its
allowlist line is stale. The guard fails on a stale entry as well as a
new one, precisely so a migrated file cannot keep a slot open and hide
the next regression in the same path.

* fix(ports): import the process-table reader the scanner uses

Missing import: the migration replaced the PowerShell call but the new
symbol was never imported, so tsc failed. Vitest transpiles without
typechecking, which is why the port-scanner suite stayed green.

* fix(deps): sync this branch's lockfile with its patch set

Same class as the fix on the tip branch: pnpm records a hash per patched
dependency, and this branch introduces the windows-process-tree patch
without its lockfile entry matching. Every job here failed at install
with ERR_PNPM_LOCKFILE_CONFIG_MISMATCH.

Verified with --frozen-lockfile, which is what CI runs and what my local
runs were not.

* test(relay): drive the relay's Windows fixtures from the native snapshot

Two relay cases fed a PowerShell CIM payload through a mocked execFile.
That reader is gone, so both failed -- deterministically, on every PR
run for this branch and the one above it.

I did not catch it because my own verification sweep was
'src/main src/shared config/scripts' and never included src/relay. The
relay is a first-class consumer of the process table; leaving it out of
the sweep is how a deterministic failure survived six review rounds.

Neil 991a3fe963 chore(lint): update oxlint to 1.77 and enable no-op cleanup rules (#13901)
Enable eleven oxlint rules that simplify code without changing behavior, and fix
every existing violation. Each candidate was gated on measured cost rather than
assumption, so rules that regressed runtime performance or type checking were
dropped instead of suppressed.

typescript/no-redundant-type-constituents is the largest addition: 113 sites, no
autofix. Dead constituents are deleted. Where the redundant literal existed to
document intent (`string | 'all'`), it is preserved as `(string & {})`, which
keeps the autocomplete hint the original code was reaching for instead of
flattening it away. The rule also caught a broken import —
remote-shared-control-retirement-probe.ts pulled RuntimeStatus from
src/shared/types, which does not export it, so the type silently degraded to
`any`; no tsconfig covers that file, so tsc never saw it.

oxlint stays at 1.77.0 rather than 1.78.0 because .npmrc sets
minimum-release-age=4320 and 1.78.0 is younger than that window.

Rules evaluated and rejected, with what disqualified each:
- prefer-string-raw: String.raw is a runtime call, not a literal (184x slower)
- prefer-string-replace-all: 26% slower
- text-encoding-identifier-case: ~5% slower, reproducible
- prefer-spread: [...str] is 110% slower than split('') and differs on surrogates
- no-implicit-coercion: `!!x` narrows types and `Boolean(x)` does not (22 tsc errors)
- prefer-arrow-callback: arrows are not constructible, breaking `new` on mocks
- object-shorthand: rewrites source text asserted by a tracked reliability gate
- switch-case-braces: pushes ten files past max-lines, which cannot be suppressed
- no-useless-switch-case: drops `case undefined:` that switch-exhaustiveness-check needs
- arrow-body-style: 115 violations have no fix, and it breaks max-lines
- newline-after-import: false-positives on the leading-semicolon ASI idiom

electron-vite-output-contract asserted on the literal
Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty.call text; retarget it to Object.hasOwn, which
rejects inherited keys identically.

* fix(build): skip spawn-helper check on Linux to avoid spurious node-pty rebuilds

getPatchedNodePtyRebuildReason() unconditionally checked for
build/Release/spawn-helper, but spawn-helper is a macOS-only node-pty
build target. On Linux, node-gyp never generates it, so missingArtifact
was always non-null, causing unnecessary source rebuilds every time.

Fixes #7760

Neil f9e18910ae chore(lint): adopt unicorn/prefer-import-meta-properties (error) (#6847)
Migrate fileURLToPath(import.meta.url) / dirname(...) boilerplate to the
native import.meta.dirname / import.meta.filename, then enable the rule
at error so new code stays on the native form.

The oxlint autofix rewrites the expression but leaves the now-unused
node:url / node:path imports behind (which the already-enabled
no-unused-vars=error would then flag), so this commit also removes those
34 orphaned imports — trimming the named import where other names are
still used, deleting the line where it was the sole import.

Scope is build scripts + Node-env tests only (config/scripts, tools/
benchmarks, *.test.{ts,mjs}, vitest configs); zero shipped runtime code.
The native properties are exact equivalents (Node >= 20.11; repo is on
24), so behavior is unchanged.

Verified: oxlint 0 errors tree-wide (root + mobile), oxfmt clean,
typecheck (node+cli+web) + mobile tsc pass, root vitest 22825 passed /
0 failed, mobile vitest 1018 passed. Exercised the rewritten scripts
directly: build:relay (6 targets), ensure-native-runtime,
verify-macos-entitlements all run correctly with import.meta.dirname.
