* fix(hooks): fail open on oversized stdin instead of echoing truncated JSON (#2222)
run-with-flags.js capped stdin at 1MB but every fallthrough path still
echoed the truncated string to stdout. The harness parses hook stdout as
JSON, got a document cut mid-stream, and blocked the tool call — so any
Edit/Write with a >1MB hook payload was permanently blocked by every
registered pre-write hook, before ECC_HOOK_PROFILE / ECC_DISABLED_HOOKS
gating could run.
- Exit 0 with empty stdout (no opinion) when the stdin cap trips, before
any echo or gating logic.
- Flush stdout via write callback before process.exit: exiting right
after stdout.write() dropped everything past the ~64KB pipe buffer,
cutting even sub-cap pass-through payloads mid-JSON.
Regression tests cover the enabled, disabled, and missing-arg paths for
oversized payloads plus full echo of sub-cap >64KB payloads.
* fix(codex): stop emitting invalid exa url entry, align merge with connector policy (#2224)
The Codex MCP merge declared exa with a url key, but Codex's
[mcp_servers.*] TOML schema is stdio-only — the url key makes the
entire config.toml fail to load, bricking both the codex CLI and the
desktop app. Every install/update re-injected the line because the
urlEntry branch treated the broken entry as present.
- ECC_SERVERS now emits only the current default set per
docs/MCP-CONNECTOR-POLICY.md: chrome-devtools (stdio, command/args).
Retired servers (supabase, playwright, context7, exa, github, memory,
sequential-thinking) are never re-emitted; existing user-managed
entries are untouched.
- The merge now repairs the exact ECC-emitted broken form (url-only
exa entry) on every run so re-running the installer fixes broken
configs instead of preserving them. User stdio exa entries
(command + mcp-remote) are left alone.
- check-codex-global-state.sh requires chrome-devtools instead of the
retired set, and flags url-only exa entries with a repair hint.
Tests cover repair, re-run idempotence, stdio-entry preservation, and
no-retired-server emission in add, update, dry-run, and disabled modes.
* fix(hooks): never echo truncated stdin from Stop hooks (#2090)
Stop hooks follow the ECC pass-through convention (echo stdin on
stdout), but every echoing Stop hook capped stdin and echoed the capped
string. The Stop payload carries last_assistant_message, so a long
final assistant message produced a JSON document cut mid-stream on
stdout, which the harness reports as 'Stop hook error: JSON validation
failed' across the whole Stop chain.
Reproduced: a Stop payload with a >64KB last_assistant_message run
through run-with-flags + cost-tracker emitted exactly 65536 bytes of
invalid JSON (cost-tracker capped stdin at 64KB — far below realistic
Stop payloads).
- cost-tracker: raise the cap to 1MB (matching all other hooks) and
suppress the pass-through echo when stdin was truncated.
- check-console-log, stop-format-typecheck, desktop-notify: suppress
the echo when stdin was truncated; flush stdout before process.exit
so sub-cap payloads are not cut at the ~64KB pipe buffer.
- All hooks keep exiting 0 (fail-open); diagnostics go to stderr.
New stop-hooks-stdout test asserts the contract for every registered
Stop hook: stdout is empty or valid JSON, exit code 0 — for realistic
100KB payloads and oversized >1MB payloads, via the production runner
and via direct invocation. Updated the old hooks.test.js case that
codified the truncated-echo behavior.
* fix(hooks): dampen GateGuard fact-force repetition in long sessions (#2142)
In long autonomous sessions the fact-force gate produced 10+
near-identical 'state facts -> blocked -> restate -> retry' blocks in
one context window, which measurably raises the odds of the model
collapsing into a degenerate single-token repetition loop.
- Track a per-session fact_force_denials counter in GateGuard state
(merged max across concurrent writers, reset with the session, robust
to malformed on-disk values).
- The first GATEGUARD_FACT_FORCE_FULL_DENIALS denials (default 3) keep
the full four-fact block; later denials emit a condensed single-line
message that carries the denial ordinal, so consecutive denials are
structurally different and never textually identical.
- True retries of the same target remain allowed without re-prompting
(unchanged). Destructive-Bash and routine-Bash gates are unchanged,
as are the ECC_GATEGUARD=off / ECC_DISABLED_HOOKS escape hatches.
Eight new tests cover budget counting, condensed format, ordinal
advancement, retry pass-through, env tuning, malformed state, MultiEdit
dampening, and destructive-gate exemption.
* fix(hooks): keep security hooks able to block on oversized stdin (#2222)
Refine the truncation fail-open: instead of skipping the hook entirely,
the runner now suppresses only its own raw-echo when stdin was
truncated. The hook still executes and receives the truncated flag
(run() context / ECC_HOOK_INPUT_TRUNCATED), so config-protection keeps
blocking truncated protected-config payloads (its test requires exit 2)
while pass-through hooks fail open with empty stdout as before.
* style: apply repo formatter to touched hook files
Salvages the useful statusline/context monitor work from stale PR #1504 while preserving the current continuous-learning hook runner wiring.
Adds the metrics bridge, context monitor, statusline script, shared cost/session bridge utilities, and tests. Fixes the reviewed false loop-detection hash collision for non-file tools, avoids default-session cost inflation, sanitizes statusline task lookup, and records hook payload session IDs in cost-tracker.
