#356 and #371 fixed the same leak two ways. #356 pointed CODEMAN_DATA_DIR at a
second throwaway directory and cleaned it up in afterAll and on exit; #371
deletes the variable along with CODEMAN_INSTANCE and CODEMAN_TMUX_SOCKET, so
`getDataDir()` falls back to `homedir()`, which the temp HOME already redirects.
Merged as they were, setup.ts set the variable and deleted it a few lines
later, and the second directory was created for nothing.
The strip wins: same protection, one tree to clean up, and the isolation test
#371 adds pins the list statically. The extra directory, its restore and its
two rmSync calls go, the vitest config `env` entries that set the same variable
go (they were documented as inert and would now be contradicted by the setup
file either way), the two test comments that described the old mechanism are
reworded, and CLAUDE.md's testing paragraph names the three stripped variables
and why CODEMAN_INSTANCE has to be stripped in the setup file rather than a hook.

The "never writes hooks for a remote attach" test stubbed CODEMAN_DATA_DIR
to a separate throwaway dir just for this write, but session-routes.ts's
CODEMAN_CONFIG_DIR is a module-load-time constant frozen at test/setup.ts's
sandboxed dir before this test ever runs. The fixture landed somewhere the
route handler could never read, so the remote-host lookup silently failed
(NOT_FOUND) and the test passed for the wrong reason -- createErrorResponse
never sets reply.code(), so Fastify's default 200 made the NOT_FOUND branch
and the intended success branch indistinguishable by status code alone.
Write straight to getDataDir() instead, matching the docker-hosts fixture
convention already used elsewhere in this file. Verified the fix actually
exercises the success path (host resolves, 200 with a real session), not
just an accidental 200 from the error branch.
PR #356 stopped the remote-hosts.json fixture write from clobbering prod.
Two holes in the same file remain:
1. The quick-start afterEach still ran rmSync(CASES_DIR, recursive).
CASES_DIR is join(homedir(), 'codeman-cases'), and on Linux builds
where os.homedir() reads /etc/passwd instead of $HOME it resolves to
the PROD case tree - so a full-suite run deleted the real
~/codeman-cases. Add a shared safeRmHomeTree() containment gate that
only deletes a path under the redirected test HOME.
2. setup.ts teardown did rmSync(process.env.CODEMAN_DATA_DIR ?? '') AFTER
restoring the env - if a pre-existing prod CODEMAN_DATA_DIR was set,
that deleted prod. Capture the throwaway dir in a const and clean that.
A broader test-isolation sweep (10 files: cli-skill-target, edge-cases,
integration-flows, operation-lightspeed, ralph-integration,
case-clone-routes, voice-routes, session-cleanup, sse-events,
sse-subscription-filter) also applies the same containment gates to every
per-case delete. It is intentionally NOT included here to keep this PR
skinny; it is identified and available on request.
session-routes-workspace-hooks.test.ts wrote its h1/box/10.0.0.5 host
fixture into getDataDir()/remote-hosts.json. getDataDir() resolves via
homedir() → ~/.codeman (INSTANCE_SUFFIX='' by default), and overriding
HOME in test/setup.ts does NOT change os.homedir() on Linux — so every
full-suite run silently overwrote the PRODUCTION remote-hosts.json,
wiping user-defined remote hosts, emptying the launch-case dropdown and
breaking remote session creation (found live 2026-08-29).
The vitest v4 test.env config key is ignored (probe confirmed the
worker still saw CODEMAN_DATA_DIR=undefined), so the reliable fix is
stubbing the env inside the test: the fixture write now goes to a
throwaway /tmp dir via vi.stubEnv + finally unstub. Verified: prod
remote-hosts.json hash is identical before and after the suite run.
Post-#304 follow-ups. The install-vs-refresh decision (workspaceHooksEnabled,
default ON) moved from a session-routes-local helper into hooks-config.ts as
applyWorkspaceHooks(workspace, install?), and the claude session-create sites
that bypassed it now go through it: cron job fires (cron-service), legacy
scheduled-run iterations (runScheduledLoop), and the plan-orchestrator research
and planner one-shots. A cron or scheduled run firing in a linked case that
never had an interactive session ran hook-blind (no stop for completion
detection, no tab alert on a blocking dialog).
The shared core also carries the two guards every caller needs: a workspace
that no longer exists is skipped (ensureCodemanHooks mkdir -p's, so the boot
recovery sweep used to resurrect a deleted repo as an empty tree holding only
.claude/settings.local.json), and all errors are swallowed since a create must
never fail on hooks. Route handlers keep resolving the setting through their
ConfigPort and pass it in; non-route callers omit it and the core reads
settings.json itself (absent key or unreadable file = ON).
Two adjacent gates tightened in session-routes:
- the docker quick-start hooks branch excluded the five external CLIs but let
`shell` through, contradicting its own rule that only claude reads .claude
hooks; it is now gated on mode === 'claude'
- the statusLine exporter call in POST /api/sessions got the same
!remote && body.workingDir guard the hooks call got in 499d355 (it mkdirs the
same way, so a remote attach created a junk user@host:session dir locally and
a cwd-fallback create wrote into $HOME)
plan-routes' one-shot deliberately stays out: its workingDir is process.cwd(),
exactly the target 499d355 forbids writing into. restoreMuxSessions stays out
too: the boot sweep already covers recovered workspaces.
Tests: quick-start existing-case install, docker claude-installs/shell-does-not,
and the core directly (default-ON install, OFF add-nothing, OFF still heals a
stale block, malformed file untouched, vanished workspace skipped); the remote
and cwd-fallback regressions now also send statusLineTelemetry:true to pin the
statusLine guard.

A claude-mode attachRemoteSession create overwrites workingDir with the
user@host:session pseudo-path, which is a RELATIVE path locally — the old
refresh-only call no-op'd on it, but ensureCodemanHooks mkdirs, so it
created a junk local directory. And with workingDir omitted the cwd
fallback reaches the hooks write unvalidated; under installer-created
services cwd is $HOME, so hooks materialized in ~/.claude/settings.local.json.
Both guarded at the applyWorkspaceHooks call site; regression tests prove
the remote attach leaves no junk dir and the no-workingDir create leaves
the server cwd untouched.

Installing hooks into any workspace a Claude session runs in is the right
default, but it takes a decision away from a user who deliberately removed
them: nothing on disk distinguishes "removed on purpose" from "never had any",
so they would come back on the next session create.
Adds the synced workspaceHooksEnabled setting (App Settings -> Agents & CLIs ->
Claude), default ON. OFF restores the older behavior exactly: a Codeman hooks
block that is already present is still refreshed when stale (COD-91), but one
is never added.
Every create path routes through one applyWorkspaceHooks() helper so the gate
cannot apply to some paths only, and the boot-time recovery sweep honours it too.

A session in a linked case (or any pre-existing repo) ran with no hooks block
at all: writeHooksConfig only fires when Codeman CREATES the case directory,
and refreshStaleCodemanHooks deliberately never adds one. Every hook-driven
surface was therefore dead in exactly the place most sessions run: no tab
alert or phone-overview NEEDS YOU row when a dialog blocks the pane, no
Approvals Inbox item, no push, no definitive stop/idle_prompt for respawn,
and no stop/blocked for the agent wait endpoints.
Both session-create paths and restoreMuxSessions() now call
ensureCodemanHooks(), an add-only merge that keeps a user's own handlers and
leaves a malformed settings file untouched. Claude Code re-reads
settings.local.json, so a session already running in the workspace starts
firing hooks without a restart.
