Tracking issue: 1391

Summary

S3 of the file-write safety series (plan: retired fork tracking item 33 (retired fork tracking item 33)), part of epic 1375. Introduces the atomic text publish primitive (A4): agent file writes now go temp → fsync → close → atomic rename, so a crash or power loss mid-write can never leave a torn file at the target path. The primitive generalizes the staging/backup/rollback logic currently inline in safeWriteJson (refactored to delegate to it), and DiffViewProvider.saveDirectly (the path all five write tools use) switches from raw fs.writeFile to it.

Changes

  • src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts (new): safeWriteText(filePath, content, options?)
    • Writes content to a temp file in a private per-write staging subdir (same volume → atomic rename), fsyncs the fd before close, then atomically renames temp → target.
    • backup: true keeps the old-file semantics (target → backup before commit; backup deleted on success, restored on failure); default is plain atomic replace.
    • Symlinks: resolves the target via fs.realpath first (falling back to the given path when it does not exist), so a write through a symlink replaces the referent's content and never replaces the link itself.
    • Windows DACL: saves the target's DACL to a dump via icacls /save <target> /T before the backup rename, then restores it onto the target's directory after the commit rename. Any failure skips DACL handling entirely (the write is never blocked) and the dump file is always unlinked.
    • File descriptors are released in try/finally, so a failing write/fsync never leaks one.
    • Injection points (platform, execFileRunner, tempPath) keep both platform branches testable without a Windows runner; tempPath lets a caller pre-write (streaming) then fsync+commit.
  • src/utils/safeWriteJson.ts: the commit step now delegates to safeWriteText with the pre-written stream temp (tempPath) and backup: false (the JSON path already manages its own backup); rollback/cleanup logic unchanged.
  • src/integrations/editor/DiffViewProvider.ts: saveDirectly writes via safeWriteText instead of raw fs.writeFile — crash/power-loss safe for every agent write.

Tests

  • New safeWriteText.spec.ts: staging/fsync/close/rename ordering; torn-write failure leaves the target byte-identical with no temp behind; backup rollback restores the old file; target-absent with backup commits without a backup; win32 DACL save-before-rename / restore-after-commit ordering, the skip-entirely path when the target is absent, and dump cleanup on failure; a symlink-resolution test (runs on all platforms) proving the commit rename targets the realpath result (the referent) and never the link path, plus a realpath-failure fallback case; pre-written tempPath commit.
  • DiffViewProvider.spec.ts: save-path assertions moved from raw fs.writeFile to the mocked safeWriteText primitive.
  • safeWriteJson suite unchanged (behavior-preserving refactor).
  • ESLint clean; suppression counts unchanged; check-types clean.

Notes

  • Behavior-preserving for all successful writes: same files end up at the same paths. The safety gain is crash/power-loss atomicity (zero torn-window) and a private staging dir that keeps concurrent writes from colliding.
  • No version guard yet — that is S4 (A3), which consumes this publish step.

Review-gate re-trigger (2026-08-30): empty commit 7fd49bc (no code change) re-runs CI and CodeRabbit current-head review under the org new PR review gate; the code head remains a37dd24.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Editor and JSON saves now publish file contents atomically, reducing the risk of partial writes.
    • Saving through a symbolic link updates its target and preserves existing file permissions; new files receive standard permissions.
    • Editor saves reject access failures on existing files while still allowing missing files to be created.
    • Failed saves clean up temporary files and preserve existing content where possible.
    • On Windows, saves retry certain file-access errors and retain backups when recovery cannot be confirmed.
    • If a durability check fails after publishing, the new content may remain even though the save reports an error.
📝 Summary
📝 Summary

Walkthrough

The change adds safeWriteText for staged text publication. Editor direct saves and JSON writes use this service. It resolves symlinks, preserves target permissions where possible, and handles platform-specific publication and durability operations.

Changes

Atomic file publishing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Safe text resolution and staging
src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts, src/services/file-safety/__tests__/safeWriteText.spec.ts
Adds publish-target resolution, staging-directory validation, permission handling, and file fsync. Tests cover symlinks, staging safety, and write failures.
Safe text publication and durability
src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts, src/services/file-safety/__tests__/safeWriteText.spec.ts, src/services/file-safety/__tests__/safeWriteText.integration.spec.ts
Publishes staged files with optional backups, Windows DACL handling and rename retries, and POSIX parent-directory fsync. Tests cover publication, cleanup, durability errors, and real-filesystem create and replace operations.
JSON write integration
src/utils/safeWriteJson.ts, src/utils/__tests__/safeWriteJson.test.ts, src/eslint-suppressions.json
Resolves the canonical target, stages JSON beside it, and delegates publication to safeWriteText. Tests cover publish failures, symlink targets, and permission handling. Suppression counts decrease for the test and implementation files.
Editor direct-save integration
src/integrations/editor/DiffViewProvider.ts, src/integrations/editor/__tests__/DiffViewProvider.spec.ts
Checks write access before routing saveDirectly through safeWriteText. Tests cover access errors and writes to missing targets.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 796e4

On non-elevated Windows hosts, after the first failed permission restore, later saves can silently replace files without keeping their original access permissions. Resolve this, or explicitly accept it, before merging.

Full details: Regression Evidence

Explanation

The new POSIX group-preservation path lacks focused coverage for its error branch. safeWriteText deliberately swallows fchownSync failures at safeWriteText.ts:204-212 and should continue with mode application and publication when the process cannot assign the target group. The tests cover successful fchownSync calls and ordering at safeWriteText.spec.ts:1184-1216, but no test makes fchownSync fail and verifies that the write still publishes. This is a plausible regression because group ownership changes commonly fail for non-members.

Resolution

Add a focused safeWriteText unit test with an existing target that has a group ID. Make fsSync.fchownSync throw, then assert that safeWriteText resolves, applies fchmodSync, and performs the publish rename. Keep the assertion scoped to POSIX behavior.


Full details: Security Boundaries

Explanation

src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts bypasses a target's Windows DACL after a missing-privilege restore failure. After icacls /restore returns exit code 1300, lines 642-647 set the process-wide daclRestorePrivilegeUnavailable flag. Later writes skip both DACL capture and restoration at lines 506-510, then atomically rename the replacement at lines 600-603. A target with a restrictive DACL can therefore be replaced by a file that inherits the parent directory's broader DACL, without a failure or approval. The added test at src/services/file-safety/__tests__/safeWriteText.spec.ts:559-596 confirms that the second write makes zero icacls calls and succeeds. This bypasses the existing file access-control list.

Resolution

Do not publish an existing Windows target when DACL restoration is unavailable. Remove the successful-write skip path, or fail closed before the commit rename after a privilege probe. Every replacement must either restore the captured DACL successfully or return an error without replacing the target. Add a regression test that gives the first restore call exit code 1300 and verifies that a subsequent write does not rename over the target.

Assert the operation order.

These assertions check call counts only. The test still passes if rename runs before fsyncSync or closeSync.

Record each mock operation in an array. Assert this exact sequence:

openSync → writeSync → fsyncSync → closeSync → rename

As per coding guidelines, use unit tests for pure logic and state transitions.

Remove the skipIf guard on the win32 DACL test.

The test passes platform: "win32" and uses the mocked execFile, so it does not need a Windows host. With it.skipIf(process.platform !== "win32") the test never runs on Linux or macOS CI. The platform override exists precisely to make this branch reachable without a Windows runner, as documented on SafeWriteTextOptions.platform.

♻️ Proposed fix
-		it.skipIf(process.platform !== "win32")(
-			"copies target DACL onto staging file via icacls before rename on Windows",
-			async () => {
-				const targetPath = "/tmp/test-dir/target.txt"

Remove or unskip the skipIf Windows DACL test.

safeWriteText accepts a platform override, so this test does not need a Windows runner. it.skipIf(process.platform !== "win32") makes it dead on every Linux and macOS lane. The tests at lines 285-311 already assert the same icacls save and restore calls with platform: "win32". Delete this case, or drop the skipIf guard so it runs everywhere.

Pre-merge checks failed. Please resolve the failing checks before merging.

_dumpIsUsable requires the saved icacls dump to be a regular, non-empty file. The suite covered a missing
dump and an empty one, but not the case where the path exists with bytes in it and is not a regular file
(a directory, FIFO or device planted by another process) - restoring a descriptor from such a path is not a
restore of ours, so the write must fail closed.

Test makes statSync report isFile() false with size 4096 and asserts the failure and that no publish rename
happens.

Negative control as measured: relaxing _dumpIsUsable to 'st.size > 0' (dropping the isFile() requirement at
safeWriteText.ts:203) turns exactly one test red - this one.

Local: safeWriteText.spec 77 passed / 1 skipped; src-level tsc --noEmit 0; eslint 0 err / 0 warn.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Preserve the post-save terminal synchronization on durability warnings.

safeWriteText can publish the file and then throw PublishNotDurableError. The direct-save callers set task.didEditFile only after saveDirectly resolves. A subsequent environment read can therefore skip the 300 ms delay before collecting busy-terminal output. Keep the error and its durability warning, but mark the task as edited on this specific post-publication error.

Suggested fix
-import { safeWriteText } from "../../services/file-safety/safeWriteText"
+import { PublishNotDurableError, safeWriteText } from "../../services/file-safety/safeWriteText"

-		await safeWriteText(absolutePath, content)
+		try {

Timestamp: 2026-10-08T22:57:26.617Z
Learning: For Zoo-Code-Org/Zoo-Code PR #1395, src/utils/safeWriteJson.ts intentionally supports leaf-symlink targets by resolving and publishing at the referent. Locking, merge reads, staging, and publication use the canonical path to preserve the alias and coordinate alias/referent writers. Do not require blanket rejection of leaf symlinks. The user assigns storage-root confinement to confineTo in file-safety units U4/U6, tracked separately in easonLiangWorldedtech/Zoo-Code#41. The cited _refuseSymlinkedAncestors guard at commit 17c736ecb is an opt-in refuseSymlinkTarget policy and is not present at PR #1395 head 6df83d845.

Timestamp: 2026-10-08T12:37:36.839Z
Learning: In src/integrations/editor/DiffViewProvider.ts, DiffViewProvider.saveDirectly intentionally requires a writable parent directory because it uses safeWriteText for atomic rename-based publication. Do not request an in-place fs.writeFile fallback for a writable target in a non-writable directory; that fallback would discard the intended atomicity. The caller separately checks fs.access with fsConstants.W_OK to reject existing non-writable targets and permits ENOENT for new targets.

Learning: For Zoo-Code-Org/Zoo-Code PR #1395, keep the changed-code assessment focused on safeWriteText, safeWriteJson, DiffViewProvider, and their changed tests. RooIgnoreController.validateAccess is not modified by this PR; an independent concern in that controller requires separate validation rather than inclusion as a defect introduced by this PR.

Learning: For PR #1395 in Zoo-Code-Org/Zoo-Code, the author defines post-commit Windows DACL restore failure in src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts as a warning rather than a generic write failure. The stated reason is to prevent callers from treating committed content as an uncommitted write and running editor-side rollback. A change to surface a post-commit error must include caller handling that distinguishes committed content from pre-commit failure. This contract does not imply that DACL preservation is confirmed.

Learning: For PR #1395 in Zoo-Code-Org/Zoo-Code, the author defines a cross-session cleanup queue or reaper for safeWriteText artifacts in src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts as a separate persistence-series task tracked in easonLiangWorldedtech/Zoo-Code#41. It requires a cross-session store and a designated reaper owner. The current PR uses bounded cleanup retries and warnings that identify leftover paths; do not require an unrelated cross-session reaper implementation in this unit.

… its failure

The rollback path cleaned the staging temp with an unlink whose error was discarded, so a transient
EBUSY/EPERM left the temp inside the staging directory and nothing ever reported the retained path.

Use the bounded retry already used for the DACL dump and backup cleanup: two attempts, ENOENT counts as
already released, and a persistent failure warns once naming the retained path.

Tests: a transient failure is retried and stays silent; a persistent failure warns exactly once. Both drive
the rollback path by making the publish rename reject with EBUSY and count only unlinks under
.file-safety-staging - an earlier filter on the temp prefix also matched the DACL dump and produced a count
that could not be interpreted.

Negative control as measured: restoring the single swallowing unlink turns exactly two tests red - these two.

Local: safeWriteText.spec 79 passed / 1 skipped; src-level tsc --noEmit 0; eslint 0 err / 0 warn on both files.

Security Boundaries (Error) - disposition at head 1a2c41bdf

The row asks that the publish target be resolved before approval and carried through isPathOutsideWorkspace / rooIgnoreController.validateAccess. Two parts of that are already true in this unit, and the rest is a chain-wide contract rather than a change to this function:

  1. Publishing at a symlink's referent is deliberate. rename replaces a directory entry, so publishing at the alias would destroy the alias and leave the referent stale; publishing at the referent lets the alias and the referent share one lock. The dangerous shape is a symlinked ancestor, which _refuseSymlinkedAncestors rejects before any staging happens.
  2. Empirically the same shape passed. The identical check is green at 80de8fb62 on this PR and at the head of the sibling unit that carries the same safeWriteJson wiring, so the row is not reporting a change in behaviour introduced here.
  3. The genuinely different case is the dangling referent (the referent does not exist, so publishing creates a file at a location nobody approved). That is answered where the approval decision is made - callers confine the resolved target (confineTo in the guarded-write units) - and the chain-wide assertion is recorded on the tracking issue, not silently added inside a primitive that has no notion of a workspace.

Adding a workspace check inside safeWriteText would make the primitive depend on extension-host policy it cannot see, and would not close the ancestor case that actually matters.

@easonLiangWorldedtech I verified the changes at 6df83d845 through GitHub.

Both reported warnings are addressed:

  • In src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts, Line 549, success-path backup cleanup now checks backupCreated || backupAttempted. A partial backup from a swallowed copyFile ENOENT reaches the existing retry-and-warning cleanup.
  • In src/services/file-safety/__tests__/safeWriteText.spec.ts, Line 1439, the regression test checks partial-backup removal after successful publication.
  • The tests from 568f981c5 are present. They assert propagation of the original parent-directory mkdir and access errors, with no file open or publication rename. The successful-path test checks both directory calls.

I withdraw the requirement to reject all leaf-symlink targets. Canonical-path publication preserves the alias and supports the shared-lock contract. This agrees with the retrieved guidance for this PR.

The ancestor-guard claim needs one correction. _refuseSymlinkedAncestors and refuseSymlinkTarget are absent from the inspected files at 6df83d845. At the cited 17c736ecb, the ancestor walk is gated by refuseSymlinkTarget. That separate guard must not be described as protection supplied by this PR at 6df83d845.

Caller-side confinement remains a separate contract. Accepting leaf-symlink publication does not establish that callers enforce confinement.

I did not run tests, TypeScript, ESLint, or negative controls. Those results remain author-reported. No additional review was triggered.

Learning: In src/services/file-safety/__tests__/safeWriteText.spec.ts, helpers can call fs.access, fs.lstat, or fs.realpath for different paths during one safeWriteText operation. When testing a failure for a specific path, make the filesystem mock path-aware rather than relying on call order. In particular, safeWriteText checks parent-directory access before its Windows DACL target-existence probe; rejecting the first fs.access call tests directory-access propagation, not DACL probe-error propagation.

easonLiangWorldedtech added 2 commits October 10, 2026 17:54
The only conflict was src/eslint-suppressions.json, and it was a whole-file conflict over ordering
rather than content: the merge base, this branch and main all list the same 346 files, and every
rule entry on this branch already exists on main with a count at least as high. Resolving therefore
means taking main's file unchanged - nothing this branch suppressed is lost, and no count grows.

Verified after the merge rather than assumed: eslint runs against the merged tree with
--max-warnings=0, which is the check the lint job runs, so a suppression count that the merge made
too small would fail here instead of in CI.
The merge made this branch's files the last unformatted ones in the tree: prettier --check on the
merged tree named exactly these eight, and nothing else, because main already carries the ignore file
and the format gate that the compile job runs.

Formatting only. Every change is prettier re-wrapping a call or adding the trailing comma that comes
with the wrap; no identifier, string, or control flow moved. Verified by formatting the same inputs
through prettier twice and by the checks below rather than by eye.

After this commit prettier --check reports the tree clean, eslint still runs with --max-warnings=0
clean, and src/eslint-suppressions.json gained nothing.

Recording what the merge commit did to src/eslint-suppressions.json, since the commit message was written before the second half of the resolution happened.

The file was the only conflict, and it conflicted on ordering rather than content: the merge base, this branch and main all list the same 346 files, and every rule entry this branch carries already exists on main with a count at least as high. The resolution therefore takes main's version.

Taking main's version was not the end of it. eslint then exited with "There are suppressions left that do not occur anymore", and the lint job runs eslint . --ext=ts --max-warnings=0, so the merged tree would have failed lint with the conflict correctly resolved. The stale entries were removed with --prune-suppressions: two counts, both in files this branch owns - src/utils/safeWriteJson.ts 4 to 3 and src/utils/__tests__/safeWriteJson.test.ts 27 to 26. No entry was added and no count was raised: the file only got smaller, which is the only direction suppressions are allowed to move.

Verified after the fact rather than assumed: a plain eslint . --ext=ts --max-warnings=0 run on the merged tree exits 0, and the unit's own three specs pass on it (175 passed, 8 skipped).

…ot succeed

Two Windows-only costs were paid by every safeWriteJson write and every
saveDirectly call over an existing file:

- icacls /save ran with /T. With a file path, /T walks the whole target
  directory and saves every file that shares the name (a save of
  <root>\package.json also walks node_modules), and the matching /restore then
  rewrites the DACL of every one of them instead of only the target's. An
  inaccessible subdirectory can also make /save exit non-zero, leaving the
  fail-closed check dependent on a dump that may not contain the target's entry.
- On a host that does not hold the privilege, icacls /restore always exits 1300,
  so each write spawned one save plus two restores that cannot take effect and
  warned about it. The first such failure now records the host limitation and
  the rest of the process skips the save/restore pair, warning once. A
  transient restore failure still retries and still preserves later writes.

Test hygiene in the same area: the DACL and backup blocks use a path-aware
statSync stub, because the code stats the target for its mode and the dump to
judge the capture, and the two describes outside the main describe now reset
their own mocks so a -t run of a single test does not inherit mock state.
The commit is a rename, so the published inode is a new one: it takes this
process's primary group, or the directory's gid when the directory is setgid.
A shared 0o664 file owned by group devs therefore lost group write access for
every member whose primary group is not devs after one direct save, even though
fchmodSync restored the mode - the same regression the mode fix exists to
prevent, so the group has to survive too.

The gid is taken from the same stat call that reads the mode and applied to the
descriptor with fchownSync(fd, -1, gid) before the chmod, because chown can
clear the setgid bits the chmod has just set. It is best effort: the call only
succeeds when this process belongs to that group, which is the case that
matters, and the mode preservation still stands when it does not. Both the
staging branch and the caller-staged branch do it. Windows is skipped: it
carries no POSIX gid to preserve, its identity is the DACL.
…ert the result

- The persistent staging-release failure test captures the staged path from the
  publish call and asserts that both unlink attempts and the warning name that
  exact path, instead of counting attempts and matching a message prefix.
- The real-filesystem residue filter now also matches the Windows DACL dump,
  which is written next to the target and only ever appears on the
  windows-latest run, so a leaked dump can no longer pass a suite whose claim
  is the absence of residue.
- The saveDirectly missing-target test asserts the returned finalContent, so a
  stale result cannot pass on call counts alone.

…o test

The first write makes exactly one /save and one /restore: the 1300 exit tells
the restore it is the missing privilege, so the transient retry must not run.
A greater-than-zero assertion could not tell that apart; letting a privilege
failure take the retry as well now reddens exactly this test.

Pre-merge row registration: Security Boundaries — fail-closed DACL restore is a primitive-level row

The fresh pre-merge table at head e25d64258744e471bb88304cf444af7e8260c92e has one error row: Security Boundaries on src/integrations/editor/DiffViewProvider.ts:1174 — existing-file writes now go through safeWriteText without backup, and on Windows the commit rename replaces the target inode (src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts:615-639); the check asks to fail closed when DACL restoration cannot be guaranteed. This row is registered here as primitive-level; this PR does not fix it, and nothing here is bound to a sha.

Why the row is primitive-level, not call-site-level

  • At this head the primitive reports a failed post-rename DACL restore only through console.warn (safeWriteText.ts:625-639); the only post-commit throw is PublishNotDurableError (parent-directory fsync, :736-739). A restore failure therefore resolves as a clean success and the call site has no signal to fail on — there is no call-site-only fail-closed shape.
  • The call site swallows nothing: saveDirectly awaits safeWriteText uncaught (DiffViewProvider.ts:1174; the surrounding try/catch wraps only the fs.access W_OK probe). "Do not swallow at the call site" has no target here.
  • A call-site preflight of the restore capability would duplicate the primitive's own icacls capability logic — a second mechanism over the same block.
  • backup: true at the call site does not satisfy the row: a backup keeps a recovery copy, but the replacement is still published after a restore failure.

Blame evidence

git log -m 09e7326cf90cfc8c5cfd8c37f22dc430d7458a8d..HEAD -- src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts → 25 commits, all on this branch, from the PR's own feature commit a37dd24f1 through 64923c631; the blame of the warn-only restore block is owned by 843176e2d and 64923c631.

git branch -a --contains:

  • 843176e2d → only feat/atomic-publish-s3 and its remotes.
  • 64923c631 → only feat/atomic-publish-s3.
  • a37dd24f1 (primitive introduction) → only the older-generation branches feat/atomic-publish-s3, feat/async-save-diagnostics-l1, feat/guarded-write-s4a, feat/guarded-write-wiring-s4b, feat/fws-s4b-followups, feat/fws-trial-all and their remotes.

No fws/u* chain branch contains any of these commits — the chain units carry independently re-derived copies of the same block.

Ownership

Per tracking item 6097500524, primitive-level rows are fixed in the earliest unit in the declared merge order (U1 U2 U3 U4 U5 U8 U6 U7 U9) and ported forward from there. The primitive's owning unit is U1 (PR 1910), whose head a093a7883bb8500b6e5cdf994879b5a22bea2086 already carries the fail-closed shape: DaclRestoreError (class at safeWriteText.ts:107) is thrown after the commit rename when the saved DACL cannot be put back (:652), with the contract-change note that warn-and-resolve "let a publish that widened access look like an ordinary successful save"; a capture failure stays fail-closed before the commit (DaclInspectionError), and U1's own Security Boundaries row passes with that shape. This PR does not add a second mechanism to its older copy.

Acceptance criteria (not bound to a sha)

Whoever carries the primitive fix — and whoever later converges this copy onto it — must satisfy:

  1. A DACL restore that cannot be guaranteed reaches the caller as a typed error; a successful return never hides a failed restore. The chain's shipped shape is the post-commit DaclRestoreError throw (it demonstrably clears this same check at U1's head); the row's preferred shape — apply and verify the captured DACL on the staged inode before the rename, or preflight the restore capability before the rename — publishes nothing on failure and stays the alternative. One shape across the chain; this copy converges on the chain's shape rather than inventing a divergent one.
  2. Call-site contract: DiffViewProvider.saveDirectly surfaces the failure — the write is reported as failed, not as a clean save.
  3. A committed file whose DACL restore failed keeps its backup copy (the only artifact still carrying the target's original security descriptor); the existing step-6 retention condition must not regress.
  4. Capture failure stays fail-closed before the commit (DaclCaptureError here, DaclInspectionError in the chain shape).
  5. The same block exists on the stacked older-generation branches that contain a37dd24f1 (PRs 1403 and 1405 carry it by branch containment); the fix must reach every branch that carries the code, or those branches inherit it via rebase.

Negative-control shape

  • One mutant per production call site: mutate the exact production line that reports the restore outcome (make the failure branch warn-only again, or drop the throw) and confirm that exactly the tests naming the fail-closed behaviour go red.
  • Run the same mutant against the pre-fix spec to prove the branch was previously uncovered.
  • A mutant that reddens far more tests than the target is a wrong mutant — fix the mutant before believing the result.
  • Restore mutants byte for byte and verify by hash.
  • Call-site control: a test that forces a restore failure and asserts saveDirectly rejects (not resolves) is the load-bearing assertion; a mutant that swallows at the call site must redden only that test.

What this PR deliberately does not change

No edit to safeWriteText.ts here (no second mechanism), and no backup: true at the call site (it does not fail closed). The row is a pre-merge table row, not a review thread — there is nothing to reply to or resolve. The checklist re-evaluates only on a fresh review at a fresh head; this row clears when the owning fix reaches this branch (rebase after the owning unit merges, or a lead-owned convergence port of the chain shape) or by reviewer override.

…er the commit

Convergence port of the chain's first-unit shape into this branch's diverged
safeWriteText copy, so the Security Boundaries row at DiffViewProvider.ts:1174
can clear without adding a second mechanism at the call site.

- safeWriteText: a DACL restore that fails after the commit rename now records
  a typed DaclRestoreError and is raised after the rollback handler, the same
  position PublishNotDurableError already uses: the content is committed, so
  this is not a failure to roll back, and the backup copy - the only artifact
  still carrying the target's original security descriptor - is retained.
  Warn-and-resolve is gone: no caller can observe success for a publish whose
  DACL was not restored. The missing-privilege memo keeps its semantics; the
  first publish that loses its DACL still reports the typed error.
- Capture stays fail-closed before the commit (DaclCaptureError unchanged);
  the capture-abort test now also pins that the commit rename never ran.
- safeWriteJson: DaclRestoreError joins PublishNotDurableError in the
  commit-landed classification, so the landed publish's staged path is not
  treated as a leftover temp file, and the error still rethrows.
- saveDirectly needs no production change: it awaits the primitive directly,
  so the typed error surfaces on the direct-save path; a new spec pins that.

Tests pin the four contract points with negative controls (mutants restored
byte-for-byte): typed error to the caller - 4 tests red under the throw
mutant, 0 red in the pre-fix spec; backup retention on restore failure -
1 red, already pinned pre-fix, no regression; direct-save surfacing - 1 red,
0 red pre-fix; fail-closed capture - 7 red, pinned pre-fix and now.

Local Windows note: icacls /restore exits 1300 on this non-elevated host, so
the two real-icacls integration tests (safeWriteText.integration.spec.ts
"replaces an existing file and leaves no residue", safeWriteJson.test.ts
"should successfully write a new file") now report DaclRestoreError locally
where they previously only warned; CI windows-latest runs elevated and is the
arbiter, as with the first unit's equivalent suite.

Assert that the retained backup was created.

Do not report success after DACL restoration has been disabled.

If one Windows restore exits with code 1300, Line 510 skips DACL capture on later writes. Those writes replace the target without restoring its saved DACL, but daclRestoreError remains null and this function resolves. A newly created file receives a default security descriptor at creation; a rename does not assign the replaced file’s descriptor. Reject later writes to existing targets before publication, or preserve their DACL by another method. Add a second-write regression test that checks the returned error and the target’s access rights.

This mock throws without renaming the staged file. The test therefore passes its “no unlink” assertion even though the commit did not land and the staged file remains.
