From 3a5621b83869d1a6c68ee2869a5e33f0cc266e6a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Manvendra Date: Thu, 9 Jul 2026 00:13:47 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] test(hooks): characterize the six remaining guard hooks Until the previous commit no test in this repo had ever executed a hook -- the suite covered the transform layer only. That is how protect-generated-dirs spent three minor versions guarding the wrong set of directories. These pin what the six other guards actually do, so a later edit to a regex or a pathspec parser cannot silently widen or narrow one: - block-no-verify catches --no-verify, -n, --no-gpg-sign, and `-c commit.gpgsign=false`, but not the word --no-verify inside an echo. - block-force-push blocks main and master including --force-with-lease, and deliberately allows force-pushing a feature branch. - guard-dangerous-bash blocks /, /*, ~, $HOME, chmod -R 777 /, curl | sh, dd of=/dev/sd*, mkfs, and the fork bomb -- and deliberately allows `sudo rm -rf /var` and `rm -rf ./build`. Its header calls the list "intentionally narrow"; widening it is a design change, not a bug fix, and the test now says so out loud. - protect-lockfile-edit covers twelve ecosystems. - secret-scan-on-edit rejects an AWS key id, a GitHub PAT, and a private-key header, reads an Edit's new_string as well as a Write's content, and allows both a process.env reference and a placeholder in .env.example. - block-secret-file-stage resolves pathspecs by asking git, so it is exercised against a real temporary repository: an explicit `git add .env`, the sweeping `git add .` and `-A`, `--dry-run` staging nothing, and a gitignored file ceasing to be flagged. Every hook is asserted to fail open on empty, malformed, and unexpected payloads. A hook that throws returns non-zero and blocks every tool call in the session, so failing open is the contract, not an accident. Verified the tests are not tautological: flipping one `process.exit(2)` to `exit(0)` in block-force-push fails exactly 3 of them, and restoring it passes. Suite: 143 -> 239 tests.

They cover the transform layer — the part with real logic rather than file copying — and all seven hooks, whose contract is a process exit code rather than a return value: - `tests/frontmatter.test.js` — the shared frontmatter parser and validators: CRLF endings, an empty body, a missing block, array-shaped values like `tools: [Read, Grep]`, a description that contains a colon, and the required-field and description-length checks. - `tests/cursor-transform.test.js` — `toCursorRule` across the with-frontmatter, without-frontmatter, and already-declares-`alwaysApply` cases, body-spacing normalization, and `globs` injection / `globsForLanguage` mapping. - `tests/codex-transform.test.js` — `renameSkill`, `agentToSkill`, and `ruleToSkill`: field drops, body preservation, description fallback, and null on input that has no frontmatter. - `tests/opencode-transform.test.js` — `agentToOpenCodeAgent` (sets `mode: subagent`, drops `name`/`tools`/`model`, preserves the body) and `commandToOpenCode` (keeps `description`, drops `argument-hint`, preserves `$ARGUMENTS`). - `tests/protect-generated-dirs.test.js` — the hook is a script, not a function, so this runs the real thing as a child process and asserts on its exit code (`0` allow / `2` block): every generated location blocks, source files and the user-editable `.mcp.json` / `opencode.json` do not, Windows separators and absolute paths normalize, each block message names the right source file, and a malformed payload fails open rather than wedging the session. +- `tests/hooks.test.js` — the other six guards, characterized: which `git` forms `block-no-verify` and `block-force-push` catch (and that a feature branch may be force-pushed), the exact catastrophic shapes `guard-dangerous-bash` blocks (and that `rm -rf ./build` is not one), twelve ecosystems' lockfiles, the secret patterns `secret-scan-on-edit` rejects versus the `process.env` reference it welcomes, and `block-secret-file-stage` resolving a sweeping `git add .` against a real temporary repository. Every hook is asserted to **fail open** on empty, malformed, and unexpected payloads — a hook that throws blocks every tool call in the session. CI (`.github/workflows/sync-check.yml`) runs three jobs on every push and pull request: sync determinism, frontmatter lint, and the test suite. A `release` workflow cuts a GitHub Release from a `v*` tag and the matching CHANGELOG section, gated on the same three checks. diff --git a/tests/hooks.test.js b/tests/hooks.test.js new file mode 100644 index 0000000..c885a16 --- /dev/null +++ b/tests/hooks.test.js @@ -0,0 +1,256 @@ +// agentry — characterization tests for the six PreToolUse guard hooks. +// +// These pin what the hooks actually do today, so a later change to a regex or a +// pathspec parser cannot silently widen or narrow a guard.
