Changes

First step of #6166: the @containerbase/base package with the list of tools install-tool supports, so Renovate can type against it and compare it with the containerbase version an image reports. Publishing follows in a separate PR.

  • listSupportedTools() builds the list from the registered install services, ResolverMap (parent derived from gem/npm/pip) and DeprecatedTools (flagged deprecated); tools whose service needs root are flagged root. There is no hand-maintained list.
  • pnpm tools generates data/tools.json, data/tools.schema.json and src/data.ts; pnpm lint:tools fails CI on a diff, like lint:schema.
  • The list has 77 tools. git is listed as root: true, so git-lfs's parent: 'git' resolves. Packages installed by name via install-gem/install-npm/install-pip are not listed, as that list is unbounded.
  • The default entry (tools, toolNames, ToolName, ToolMetadata) has no dependencies; @containerbase/base/zod has the zod schemas with zod as an optional peer. test/packages/base.spec.ts keeps both type definitions in sync.

Context

  • This closes an existing Issue, Closes: #
  • This doesn't close an Issue, but I accept the risk that this PR may be closed if maintainers disagree with its opening or implementation

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added a supported-tools catalog with installer types, parent-tool relationships, and root-install or deprecated status where applicable.
    • The CLI can list supported tools in a consistent, alphabetically sorted order, including relevant metadata.
    • Added package exports for accessing and validating supported-tool information, including TypeScript types and Zod schemas.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Legacy tool discovery now returns an empty list when the legacy tools directory is absent.
  • Documentation
    • Added guidance for using the supported-tools package and keeping its data up to date.
    • Updated tool contribution instructions to include regenerating and committing supported-tools data.

Generates the list of tools `install-tool` accepts, together with their
install type, parent and deprecation state, from the install services and the
`ResolverMap`/`DeprecatedTools` maps. The data ships as a workspace package,
so consumers like Renovate can type against it and compare its version with the
containerbase version deployed in an image.

The v1 shell tools are left out, they need root privileges and can't be
installed on the fly.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds a base package for supported-tool metadata and schemas, adds a CLI API to list supported tools, and introduces scripts and CI checks to generate and verify package data. It also changes legacy tool lookup to return an empty list when the v2 directory is unavailable.

Changes

Supported Tool Metadata

Layer / File(s) Summary
Metadata package contract
packages/base/src/types.ts, packages/base/src/schema.ts, packages/base/src/index.ts, packages/base/src/zod.ts, packages/base/package.json, packages/base/tsconfig.json, pnpm-workspace.yaml, test/packages/base.spec.ts, .gitignore, tsconfig.json, eslint.config.js
The base package defines tool metadata types and schemas, exports tool names and data, and configures its package build and exports. Type tests compare schema-inferred types with the exported types.
Supported tool discovery
src/cli/install-tool/index.ts, src/cli/install-tool/index.spec.ts
listSupportedTools() combines dynamic tool mappings and registered install services. It marks deprecated and root tools where applicable, and sorts results by name. The test checks ordering, shell-tool inclusion, and selected metadata.
Generated data workflow
tools/tools.ts, packages/base/data/*, packages/base/src/data.ts, package.json, .github/workflows/build.yml, docs/new-tool.md, packages/base/README.md
The generation script writes the tool catalog, JSON Schema, and TypeScript data. Package scripts and CI check generated output. The documentation describes the package and how to regenerate its data.

Legacy Tool Path Handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Legacy tools directory handling
src/cli/services/path.service.ts, src/cli/services/path.service.spec.ts
findLegacyTools() returns an empty list when the v2 tools path is missing or is not a directory. Tests also check that it returns .sh filenames without extensions.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 04bba

The catalog and legacy-directory fallback have no established merge-blocking issues. The previously reported validator inconsistency is resolved; merge after normal checks.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 04bba

The new catalog is descriptive and does not replace installation-time privilege checks. A custom legacy script with the same name as a modern tool can nevertheless erase root or dependency metadata from discovery results. The checked-in catalog retains those markers, and no privilege bypass was established.

Retained concerns

  • Low · architecture · inferred: Discovery and installation resolve duplicate service names differently. A custom same-name legacy script can replace a modern tool's root or parent metadata in listSupportedTools even though installation still selects the modern service. This can mislead consumers of the new contract; actual installer enforcement remains intact, and the checked-in catalog does not demonstrate the mismatch.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The demonstrated metadata mismatch is bounded to discovery environments containing a same-name custom legacy script. The repository-backed catalog currently preserves git's root marker and git-lfs's parent marker; external consumers and deployed custom-image contents were not established.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — Control over legacy script filenames can influence the new discovery output, but a duplicate name does not replace the modern installer selected by first-match lookup. The inspected path therefore establishes metadata drift, not a root-check bypass.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The listing function reads service metadata without calling install. The inspected legacy shell-execution sink resides in V2ToolInstallService.install, separate from discovery.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Suppressing stat failures can make an unavailable legacy directory appear empty rather than abort registration. Installation still checks for an exact legacy script before its fallback execution. Whether permission or storage errors should instead abort discovery remains a deployment-policy gap.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Align metadata duplicate resolution with installation's first-service precedence, while preserving the intended override of implicit mappings, so custom legacy names cannot erase the selected installer's root or parent markers.

🟡 Medium risk · Adds a generated supported-tools package and changes tool metadata generation scope

Adds @containerbase/base package exposing the supported tool list as generated data, with TypeScript types and zod schemas. The tool list is dynamically produced from existing install-tool services, ResolverMap, and deprecated tools, with CI enforcement via pnpm lint:tools to keep it in sync. No issues found.

Tools whose install service needs root are listed with `root: true`, so
consumers know they can only be installed at image build time. git is the only
one so far, which also resolves the `git-lfs` parent.
