Codeman maintainer e49c48145b fix(files): fail closed on remote symlinks, guard PUT for remote cases, bound ssh fan-out
Follow-up to #421 (remote-case file reads over ssh), addressing the review.

Symlink escape on a host without `readlink -f` (blocker). The probe's
portable fallback canonicalized only the directory chain and returned the
final component unresolved, so on macOS < 12.3 `ws/notes.txt -> ~/.ssh/id_rsa`
came back as `.../ws/notes.txt` (with the target's size), passed every
containment and blocklist check that runs on `realPath`, and `cat` followed
the link. The fallback now walks the directory chain with `cd -P`/`pwd -P`
and follows the LAST component with plain `readlink` for a bounded number of
hops, and anything it cannot fully resolve (a loop, a readlink failure, the
hop cap) is reported with an `x` marker that parses as null, i.e. 404. It
never returns the unresolved string. Measured on a real /bin/sh with
`readlink -f` shadowed: the pre-fix script reports `/ws/notes.txt`, the fixed
one `/secret/id_rsa`; both branches (native and fallback) now agree.

`PUT /api/sessions/:id/file-content` never had the remote guard the PR
described. It sits ahead of `validateSessionFilePath`, which resolves against
the LOCAL filesystem, because with a same-named directory on the Codeman host
(an sshfs mount of the remote tree, the documented stop-gap) the write landed
on the local twin while the viewer believed it edited the remote file.

ssh fan-out is bounded. `src/remote-ssh-limiter.ts` is a
document-conversion-limiter-shaped semaphore (default 4, env
`CODEMAN_MAX_REMOTE_FILE_SSH`) around every probe and buffered read; the
attachment-history list resolves its whole history in ONE batched probe
(`probeRemoteAttachmentHistory`, threaded into
`registerExternalAttachment({remoteProbes})` so the guards run unchanged)
instead of one handshake per entry; and probes chunk at 40 paths because the
whole script is one argv string. Terminal output in a remote session is
written on the remote host, so a prompt-injected agent printing hundreds of
`codeman://attach` links forked one ssh per link, each holding a 20 s
timeout, and a 100-entry history re-listed on every attachment:detected
tripped OpenSSH's default MaxStartups. Streams are deliberately not counted
(one per browser request, held for a whole playback, and gated behind a
counted probe anyway).

Smaller items from the same review: probe records are NUL-terminated and
index-keyed after a leading NUL (a newline in a filename can no longer shift
the alignment, and the banner is fenced off without last-N-lines guessing);
size comes from `stat -c %s || stat -f %z`; the three IO functions refuse
under VITEST instead of opening a connection; an unreachable host now reads
as unknown (missing: false) for detected AND external history entries, where
external used to fold its 502 into missing; a client that aborted during the
guard probe has its body's ssh child reaped (`reply.raw.destroyed` is checked
before the close listener is attached); `describeExecError` never returns
Node's `Command failed: <ssh line>` message, which carried the identity path
and the probe script into a 502 body; and the docs note that
`isSensitivePath`'s three home-anchored entries resolve against the Codeman
host's home, not the remote one.

Tests: the probe script runs on a real /bin/sh with a `readlink` shim that
rejects `-f` (the escape, a relative chain through a symlinked directory, a
loop, a newline filename, banner chatter that itself looks like a record),
the limiter's cap and FIFO order, and route tests for the PUT guard (local
twin untouched, no connection), the single batched history probe, the
unreachable-host alignment and the aborted-client reap. All four route tests
fail against the pre-fix file-routes.ts.

Randalix 63aafdf274 fix(files): serve remote-case attachments, the path a click takes outside the case
A clicked path that points OUTSIDE the case directory goes through the attachment
routes (the frontend's `_isExternalPreviewPath` sends every absolute path not under
`workingDir` to `POST /attachments`), and those had the same local-`fs` assumption
as file-raw: `realpathSync`/`fs.stat` on a path that only exists on the remote host,
so the file never opened — the case the #415 report was actually about.

- `registerExternalAttachment()` accepts `remote` and resolves through
  `remoteProbePaths` (canonical path, size/mtime, kind, plus the workspace root for
  the confinement check). Everything around it — blocklist, extension allowlist,
  workspace confinement, registry/dedupe — is now shared by both branches, so the
  remote path cannot drift from the local one.
- The by-id routes (`raw`, `preview`, `thumbnail`), the metadata poll and the
  attachment history list resolve over ssh too. `raw` streams with the same
  Range contract as file-raw; `preview` (office) and `thumbnail` answer 400 for a
  remote record; an unreachable host answers 502, a vanished file 404.
- Which host a record is read from follows the SESSION, never the path string: the
  same absolute path is a different file on each host, and a remote session never
  falls back to a local file with that name.
- Codex generated artifacts keep force-workspace confinement for a remote case: the
  well-known artifact directories are anchored at THIS host's home, so only a file
  inside the remote workspace is trusted.

Still local-only by design: writes, office conversion, thumbnails, the file
tree/picker and tail-file.

Codeman maintainer da999b130e feat(files): preview text files from outside the workspace, and stop routing them at a viewer that cannot read them
A .json/.log/.yaml/code path outside the session workspace was refused as an
unsupported type, and clicking one in the terminal made it worse: text goes to
the log viewer, which spawns `tail -f` and allows only the workspace, /var/log
and ~/logs, so it answered "Path must be within working directory or allowed
log directories" while the same path clicked in the response viewer previewed
fine. Two surfaces, two answers, for a file the session can already cat.

- TEXT_ATTACHMENT_EXTENSIONS IS EDITABLE_EXTENSIONS (config/file-editing.ts),
  not a second curated list that would drift from it. The rule reads: if the
  viewer would open a file for editing inside the workspace, the same file
  outside it can be read. The suffix was never the confidentiality gate here,
  the path guard is (sensitive-file blocklist, /root and /etc trees, realpath
  before the check), and it still runs on every registration.
- Widening what can be READ must not widen what can RUN. html/htm join svg in
  serveRawFile's download-only branch, so markup is never served with a
  renderable type on our own origin; other text goes out as inert
  text/plain; charset=utf-8 with nosniff, matching what the path picker does.
  The preview reads through fetch(), which ignores the disposition, so a
  clicked .html still shows its source.
- ~/.codeman*/state.json joins isSensitivePath. It persists
  SessionState.envOverrides and the env allowlist admits key-shaped names
  (GEMINI_API_KEY, CLAUDE_CODE_*), so it can hold a live credential. Same
  treatment as hook-secret and users.json, and the rest of the tree stays
  attachable.
- The terminal sends an out-of-workspace path to the preview instead of the log
  viewer. In-workspace text keeps the tail viewer, which is the point of it, and
  file-stream-manager's allowlist is untouched: no `tail -f` on arbitrary host
  paths.
- The by-id text preview is bounded like the workspace one: a Range request for
  the first 512KB (a real partial read, not a discarded 50MB download) plus a
  500-line cap, with the footer saying so.

Verified on an isolated instance: a 1.1MB external log opens in ~1.8s showing
500 lines with "showing first 500 lines" in the footer; json, yaml and code
preview; an .html carrying a script tag renders as source and does not execute;
.svg is still refused; a terminal click on an external .yaml opens the preview
with no log viewer and no attachment card; an in-workspace .log still opens the
streaming tail viewer.

Codeman maintainer cbc54fc98d feat(files): play video and audio from outside the workspace too
A clip an agent wrote inside the workspace played with a working scrub bar,
while the same file in /tmp was refused as an unsupported type. The workspace
preview classified media with its own inline extension sets and the attachment
allowlist had no media at all, so the two paths disagreed about what a video is.

- VIDEO_ATTACHMENT_EXTENSIONS and AUDIO_ATTACHMENT_EXTENSIONS now live in
  attachment-registry.ts and are imported by file-content's classification, so
  both paths answer the same. mp4/webm/mov/m4v/ogv and
  mp3/wav/ogg/oga/m4a/aac/flac/opus join the attachment allowlist.
- Real MIME types for those extensions. Without one the raw route falls back to
  application/octet-stream, which a <video> refuses to decode: the player
  renders and then does nothing.
- getAttachmentType() gained the video and audio members of
  AttachmentDetectedType. Attachment cards have no per-type CSS and their
  thumbnail falls back to the type label, since the thumbnailer has no media
  branch and answers 204 rather than spawning a converter.
- The preview overlay's by-id branch renders <video>/<audio> with the same
  markup as the workspace branch, playsinline included. Serving was already
  range-aware, so seeking works.

The image-watcher keeps its own narrow detection list (png/pdf/docx/pptx), so
this does not start popping cards for every video an agent writes. Text types
that are not md or txt (.json, .log, code files) remain out of the allowlist by
choice and still report what is previewable instead.

Verified on an isolated instance: an external mp4 and mp3 both play, seek, and
report the right duration, matching the in-workspace clip exactly, and a click
on an external mp4 in the terminal opens the player with no attachment card.

arkon f7ce8e4767 fix(attachments): harden registry + close magic-link injection vector
Security (MAJOR): the terminal-output codeman://attach scanner registered any
matching path server-side with no user confirmation and broadcast the rawUrl
over SSE. Terminal output is attacker-influenceable (a prompt-injected session
can print an arbitrary path), so on the default no-auth deployment this was an
arbitrary host-file (png/pdf/docx/pptx/md/txt) read primitive reachable by any
SSE client. Magic-link registration is now force-confined to the session
workspace (forceWorkspaceConfinement) regardless of the global confine setting;
deliberate cross-workspace attach still works through the explicit,
Origin-guarded POST /attachments route and 'codeman attach' (which POSTs
directly inside a managed session). Documented in security-architecture.md.

Regression (MAJOR): .png was rerouted from the image-popup path to
attachment:detected, which has no frontend consumer — silently breaking the
dropped/pasted-screenshot popup. PNG stays on image:detected; only pdf/docx/pptx
(which never had a popup) emit attachment:detected.

Also:
- raw route streams the freshly-resolved path, not the stored one, so a
  post-registration symlink swap can't redirect the stream (TOCTOU).
- 50MB cap on the attachment raw route, matching file-raw / download.
- per-session attachment registry cap (200) to bound the POST path.
- CLI reads creds via dataPath('.env'), honoring CODEMAN_INSTANCE.

Tests: forced-confinement reject/allow cases; PNG popup-path assertions updated.

Aamer Akhter f1c64994ad COD-37 add server-side attachment pipeline (registry, magic-link, path guard)
Adds the foundation for serving local files to the browser as live external
attachments with a stable id, so requests never carry arbitrary absolute paths.

- attachment-registry: in-memory, session-scoped registry. registerExternalAttachment
  validates an absolute path, resolves symlinks, enforces the path guard, and mints
  an `att_<uuid>` id; records are cleared when the session is removed.
- attachment path guard: a configurable blocklist (secret locations + /root,/etc
  trees, extendable via attachmentBlockedPaths / CODEMAN_ATTACHMENT_BLOCKED_PATHS)
  plus an optional, default-off workspace-confinement mode. Shares one
  sensitive-path blocklist (web/sensitive-path.ts) with /api/download, which is
  refactored to use the extracted module instead of an inline copy.
- terminal magic links: the session scans output for codeman://attach?path=... and
  emits `attachmentRequested`; the web server registers the file and broadcasts an
  `attachment:detected` SSE event. `codeman attach <path>` (CLI) prints the magic
  link or POSTs directly when a session id is known.
- image watcher: detects png/pdf/docx/pptx dropped into a session's working dir and
  emits `attachment:detected`.
- routes: POST /api/sessions/:id/attachments (register) and
  GET /api/sessions/:id/attachments/:attachmentId/raw (serve), both re-checking the
  guard before streaming.

Document previews/thumbnails and the attachment-history drawer build on this
foundation and land separately.

Verified: tsc --noEmit, lint, format, frontend-syntax, full test:ci (2846 passed),
and a server boot smoke (/api/status 200).
