fix: survive keystrokes during spawn shell-readiness wait (#434) - #440
Conversation
Human keystrokes during waitForLaunchShellReady left pending input on the fresh prompt, so readiness never passed — or Enter executed the garbage and spawn reported a clean boot. Clear the line before the launcher is typed, stamp readiness_recovered on the receipt, and close orphaned junk shells.

Review — PR #440 (readiness-window keystroke recovery, #434 round 2)Verdict: ITERATE — the core fix is right and covered by real tests, but two defects should land before merge (one is a false- Verified in the worktree (
|
| Brief item | Result |
|---|---|
| (a) junk on the readiness prompt cleared (ctrl-u) + re-checked, bounded | ✅ src/server.ts:5312-5332 — ≤3 ctrl-u, ≥2500ms apart, ≤1 ctrl-c per ctrl-u, all inside the existing 10s wait |
| (b) clearing happens before any execute path | ✅ the clear loop runs before the launcher is typed; the wait only returns on empty-prompt or agent-ready |
| (c) two-window handoff has a test | ✅ tests/server-agent-tools.test.ts "recovers junk in both the readiness window and the typed launcher line" — asserts ≥2 ctrl-u, ≥2 typed launches, launched === true |
| (d) receipt distinguishes a recovered boot | ✅ readiness_recovered + readiness_cleared on all three spawn surfaces, whitelisted in ESSENTIAL_FIELDS so they survive the lean shape; clean-boot test asserts both are undefined |
| (e) junk-timeout closes the surface via the #397 path | spawn_agent (server.ts:11417-11429). new_worktree_split and spawn_in_workspace emit readiness_recovered but have no cleanupFailedLauncherArtifacts at all — pre-existing gap, not introduced here, but those two still orphan a junk shell |
| (f) no behavior change for clean boots | |
(g) no *.test.ts under docs.local/ |
✅ find docs.local -name '*.test.ts' → empty |
Tests (run by me, in the worktree): bun run test → Test Files 114 passed (114) · Tests 2733 passed | 1 skipped (2734), exit 0, 24.68s. bun run typecheck → clean, exit 0. Matches the PR's claim.
Finding 1 (should fix) — pendingShellPromptInput fires on progress output, so a clean boot can eat a ctrl-u + SIGINT
pendingShellPromptInput delegates to the non-strict matchShellPromptLine, whose decorated branch is /^.+?[$%#](?:\s+(.*))?$/u. Any last line with %/$/# followed by whitespace and text is read as pending junk. Measured against the built module in this worktree:
"[oh-my-zsh] 50% of plugins loaded" -> pending: "of plugins loaded"
"Downloading nvm... 45% complete" -> pending: "complete"
"receiving objects: 72% (720/1000), 1.2 MiB | 400 KiB/s" -> pending: "(720/1000), 1.2 MiB | 400 KiB/s"
"etanheyman ~ $ wenfnng" -> pending: "wenfnng" (correct)
Consequence on a boot with no human at all: a shell whose rc is still initializing (which is why readiness has not passed yet) gets ctrl-u and then, on the very next 100ms poll, ctrl-c → SIGINT mid-.zshrc. An under-initialized shell then runs the launcher with a half-built PATH — the command not found failure mode this repo already fights. It also flips readiness_recovered: true on a boot nobody touched.
Cheap, sufficient discriminator: require the terminator not to be preceded by a digit. That kills all three false positives above and keeps every live-probe fixture (etanheyman ~ $ wenfnng — space before $). Worth a test row per false positive.
Finding 2 (should fix) — launchShellRecoveryBySurface is never cleared on failure → stale readiness_recovered on a reused surface id
server.ts:5524 sets the entry; the only deletes are the three success paths (11479 / 11911 / 12308). If the spawn recovers junk and then fails (launcher error, submit-verify error, surface gone), the entry survives for the life of the process. Its sibling originalLaunchCommandsBySurface handles exactly this — server.ts:10262-10264 deletes on the launcher-send catch — and is additionally .clear()ed on lifecycle teardown (3168). The new map does neither and is not in context.
Failure mode: cmux reissues a surface id (daemon restart, id reuse after close) → the next, genuinely clean spawn on that id reports readiness_recovered: true with someone else's junk string in readiness_cleared. That is a fabricated receipt in the one field this PR added for honesty. Mirror the sibling: delete in the launcher-send catch, and .clear() alongside the other maps on teardown.
Note 3 — ctrl-c escalation has only a 100ms grace
lastClearKey === "ctrl-u" escalates on the next poll, ~100ms after the ctrl-u was sent. Under real terminal + read latency the screen will frequently still show the pre-ctrl-u line, so in practice most recoveries send a SIGINT they did not need. It is bounded (≤3) and harmless at an idle prompt, but combined with finding 1 it is the delivery mechanism for the mid-init interrupt. Suggest gating the escalation on the same LAUNCH_SHELL_JUNK_CLEAR_INTERVAL_MS settle, or on one confirming re-read.
Non-zsh / vi-mode adversarial check: in vicmd mode ^U is not bound to a kill-line, so ctrl-u alone would not clear — the ctrl-c fallback does cover that case. Bash ^U (backward-kill-line, cursor at EOL) is equivalent. No issue here.
Flood/latency check: worst case is 3 ctrl-u + 3 ctrl-c inside the unchanged 10s budget; the loop still exits at timeoutMs, so a keystroke flood cannot extend the wait.
Note 4 — the sub-poll execution window still reports a clean boot
If a human types and presses Enter entirely between two 100ms reads, no poll ever observes pending input, the junk executes, the prompt returns clean, and the receipt says clean boot — issue #434's ask 2 unmet for that narrow window. Detectable cheaply: the readiness loop already has launcherFailureFromShell-style evidence available; a command not found line that is not the launcher could set pendingInputObserved and surface in the receipt. Not a merge blocker, but worth an issue so the honesty property is not assumed to be total.
What is genuinely good here
The failing-tests-first shape shows: junk-clear, Enter-does-not-execute-garbage, two-window handoff, ctrl-c fallback, lean-receipt propagation, junk-timeout close, and the negative test that a clean boot omits both fields. The agentReady ? null : pending guard correctly prevents clearing a healthy booting CLI, and the generic never-ready shell keeps forensics-keep as the existing launch-timeout test requires. Fix 1 and 2 and this is an ACCEPT from me.
The live probe in the test plan is still unchecked — mock-green is not live-green; please run it before merge.

🔒 Security & Privacy | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Redact or bound the raw terminal text captured in readiness_cleared.
cleared.push(pending) stores the exact text observed on the shell prompt while waiting for readiness. If a human types a password, API key, or other secret into the terminal in the window before an agent launches, that text is captured verbatim here.
This value is spread unredacted into the spawn_agent, new_worktree_split, and spawn_in_workspace tool responses (see Lines 11731-11736, 12002-12007, 12411-12416, 12428-12433 in this file), and src/spawn-response.ts explicitly whitelists readiness_cleared in ESSENTIAL_FIELDS, so it survives even the lean, non-verbose response shape. The MCP response is visible to the calling agent/LLM and is likely to be retained in conversation history or logs, which extends the exposure well beyond the terminal itself.
Consider one of these mitigations:
- Return only a count/length and a boolean
readiness_recovered, and drop the rawclearedtext from the response. - Truncate each cleared string to a small fixed length before returning it.
- Gate the raw text behind an explicit opt-in (e.g., only include it when
verbose:true).
🔒 Example: report length instead of raw text
- if (!cleared.includes(pending)) {
- cleared.push(pending);
- }
+ if (!cleared.includes(pending)) {
+ cleared.push(pending);

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Narrow the digit-exclusion to the % terminator to avoid missing junk on numbered hostnames.
The digit check rejects pending input whenever a digit immediately precedes any of $, %, or #. This correctly filters progress-bar output like 50%, 45%, 72%. It also filters legitimate, common shell prompts whose hostname or path ends in a digit before a $/# terminator, for example host1$ , web02$ , or prod-3# .
For such a prompt, real pending human input after the terminator is silently treated as not pending, so the readiness-recovery clearing never fires for it.
Restrict the digit check to the % terminator, since that is the terminator actually implicated by progress-bar false positives (the existing regression tests all use %), and keep detection intact for $/# prompts.

* feat(qa-v): video ground truth harness for cmuxlayer claims cmuxlayer is currently the only witness to cmuxlayer: every claim is verified by the same tool suite that produced it, so a receipt that lies looks exactly like one that tells the truth. This adds evidence from outside the system under test. The harness opens an isolated cmux window, screen-records it, runs the repros the fleet actually reported (#432/#484 busy send, #484 stale terminal row, #485 close_surface scope=agent, #488 closure flap, #473 wait_for on a working agent, #434/#440 spawn under keystroke injection), captures every tool receipt verbatim against the recording clock, and emits an adjudication manifest that Sonnet vision sub-agents answer one narrow question at a time. The report reconciles receipt against pixels; contradictions are the product. Zero src/ changes. New files only: - scripts/qa-video-harness.mjs runner (cmux window lifecycle, ffmpeg recorder, MCP stdio client, probe sequence, frame extraction) - scripts/qa-video-lib.mjs pure probe catalogue, frame planning, receipt reading, reconciliation, report rendering - tests/qa-video-harness.test.ts 27 tests over the pure logic - docs/qa-video-harness.md runbook Four bugs the dry-run caught before the harness ever touched live panes, each now guarded and covered by a test: - targeting "the frontmost process" resolved to whatever the human last touched; the first recording cropped to a browser and captured private content. The window is now addressed by the title the harness assigns. - cmux focus-window does not restack macOS windows, so the operator's own window got recorded. AXRaise plus an AXMain check now proves isolation, and the run aborts rather than recording the whole desktop. - inheriting cmux's CMUX_SURFACE_ID/TAB/WORKSPACE made cmuxlayer resolve the harness as the operator's own agent and refuse terminal I/O. - re-asserting focus with cmux focus-window between probes churned surface topology until spawn_agent failed; the re-assert is AX-only now.

Co-Authored-By: cmuxlayerClaude running claude-fable-5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * wip(qa-v): second checkpoint before fleet close Co-Authored-By: cmuxlayerClaude running claude-fable-5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(qa-v): resolve probe-window isolation through CoreGraphics Four live runs of the harness produced frames that looked plausible and showed the wrong thing. Each cause is now guarded, and each guard is a test. - The probe window is located through CoreGraphics (scripts/qa-video-windows.py), not System Events. A freshly created cmux window is intermittently absent from the accessibility window list, and drops out of the on-screen list whenever its Space is inactive, so a single miss is a flap and is retried. - The recorder captures the display the probe window is actually on. cmux does not always open on the main display; two runs recorded display 0 while the window sat on display 1. - Isolation prefers a whole display over a z-order fight. The harness runs from inside a cmux pane, so the operator's own cmux window is raised by the very commands driving the probe; occlusion is per-display, so moving the probe window to the least-occupied display makes stacking moot. On a single-display machine this is a no-op and the z-order checks still apply. - Occlusion is judged from CoreGraphics front-to-back order. Every mark records whether the window was clear, the manifest refuses to generate a question for any mark that was not, and the run aborts rather than recording a covered region. - Per-probe re-assert is AXRaise only. Calling cmux focus-window between probes churned surface topology until spawn_agent failed with "not live or uniquely resolvable in a complete fresh topology". - SIGINT/SIGTERM tear the isolated window down, so an interrupted run does not leak a window onto the desktop. - Frame windows reach further past each mark: a mark is the instant of the tool call and the pixels lag it by ~1.7s, measured. Documents one rejected approach so it is not retried: screencapture -l <CGWindowID> captures a single window and is immune to occlusion, display placement and focus stealing, but cmux renders terminals with Metal, so it returns the chrome with a blank content area.

waitForLaunchShellReady, pending input on a visible shell prompt is now cleared (ctrl-u, ctrl-c fallback; at most 3 clears, ~2.5s apart) so human keystrokes cannot stall the 10s readiness wait or be executed as a shell command before the launcher runs.readiness_recovered: trueplusreadiness_clearedon the lean receipt.

Fix keystrokes during spawn shell-readiness wait by clearing pending input with ctrl-u/ctrl-c
