Walkthrough

The sandbox adds .cache/gh to the default writable home directories. Configuration tests now expect this directory with and without environment-provided extra directories.

The default writable home-directory list includes .cache/gh. Tests update expected lists for both environment-provided and default configurations.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to cd27b

Fresh environments can still fail when the GitHub CLI first writes its cache, so the directory should be created before sandbox setup prior to merging.

Create $HOME/.cache/gh before calling flare_sandbox::wrap.

Supervisor::spawn and run_headless_in call agentflare_jobs::sandbox::wrap without creating this directory. flare_sandbox::wrap skips an absent writable home directory. If $HOME/.cache/gh is absent, a wrapped gh cache write can therefore target the read-only home and fail with EROFS. Create the directory in the shared wrapper before delegating, and add a regression test for the absent-directory case.
