From 9a35227a90cf4ae080424069b95706983290b0db Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: A <258483684+la14-1@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Tue, 10 Mar 2026 00:54:17 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] fix: prevent tests from writing to real ~/.spawn/history.json (#2423) * fix: set SPAWN_HOME in preload and add fs-sandbox guardrail test The test preload now sets SPAWN_HOME to the sandbox directory by default, so tests that call cmdRun/saveSpawnRecord without explicitly setting SPAWN_HOME no longer write to the real ~/.spawn/history.json. Add fs-sandbox.test.ts that verifies the sandbox is correctly configured (HOME, SPAWN_HOME, XDG vars all point to temp). Update testing.md with mandatory filesystem isolation rules. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) * chore: add root bunfig.toml and fix biome formatting Add root-level bunfig.toml with test preload so `bun test` works from the repo root. Fix biome formatting in orchestrate.test.ts afterEach.
