fix(service): stop the test suite from mutating a live service manager - #4152
Conversation
Running this suite could take down the proxy the developer is running. The test preload isolates HOME, OPENCODEX_HOME and CODEX_HOME, which covers everything addressed by a path, but a service manager is addressed by job name: systemctl --user stop opencodex-proxy.service talks to the user manager that is already running, and launchctl bootout gui/<uid>/com.opencodex.proxy talks to launchd. Neither consults HOME. Windows has refused this since a partially-faked service test replaced a real scheduled task with a launcher inside a temporary test home: querySchtasks throws on every non-query call while the test-home guard is armed. macOS and Linux never got the equivalent, so the person most likely to run the suite - someone running opencodex on the machine they develop it on - was the one exposed. sh() and the real runLaunchctl runner now refuse a mutating launchctl or systemctl invocation while the guard is armed. Read-only verbs stay allowed because observation is what the diagnostics are for and cannot take a service down, an injected spawnSync stand-in is untouched so the existing parsing tests keep working, and the whole check is inert unless OCX_TEST_HOME_GUARD is set, which only this repository's test preload does.

On macOS, this only protects commands routed through service.ts's sh() or runLaunchctl(). src/server/system-env.ts:80-84 still executes /bin/launchctl setenv and unsetenv directly, so any test reaching injectSystemEnv() or revertSystemEnv() without a child-process stub can overwrite or remove the developer's real launchd-domain variables—including ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN—despite the armed guard and isolated HOME. Move the predicate into a shared launchctl runner or invoke it before those direct mutations so the safety boundary covers every live manager write.

Add direct tests for the runLaunchctl runner split.
Line 934 changes behavior based on runner identity, but the new suite only calls assertLiveServiceManagerAllowed. It cannot detect a regression that blocks an injected runner or that fails to guard the real runner.
Add one armed-guard test where runLaunchctl(["unload", "..."]) throws before process execution. Add one armed-guard test with an injected run function and assert that the fake runner is called and its result is returned.
As per path instructions, “A behavior change in src/ should come with a focused regression test near the existing tests for that subsystem.”

Source: Path instructions
privacy:scan rejects a /Users/<name>/ literal anywhere in the tree; the plist path in this fixture only has to be a path launchctl would accept.
The preload header is where someone learns how this suite protects a real machine, so it is where the limit belongs: path isolation does nothing for a service manager addressed by job name.

Maintainer integration (dev-only), per Integrating this into Exact-head verification — head
Security review: considered and not required. The change adds a refusal path that is inert unless Local |
Maintainer integration on dev under the MAINTAINERS.md policy that lets a maintainer with maintain or admin access land a PR on dev without a second approval, recording the decision and the exact-head CI evidence. Lane A item 3 of the round-2 stack, planned in devlog/_plan/260910_post249_round2/040_4141_launchctl_bootout.md. The decision this carries, stated plainly rather than buried: bootout kills the live gui job. That is the repair the issue asks for, and it is also why the existing code only printed the command instead of running it. It is scoped so a healthy job is never touched - it runs inside installLaunchd only, never in ocx service start, and only after load -w has already failed. launchctlLoadFailed itself is unchanged, because that regex is the silent-success guard and the fix is to recover from the condition rather than stop detecting it. Sequenced deliberately after PR #4152, which landed as 9ba04b6 and rewrote the same runLaunchctl runner. This adopts the seam that PR established instead of introducing a second one. Exact-head CI at ae057c4, verified by exit code: gh run view 34418986812 --exit-status -> 0 Cross-platform CI gh run view 34418986816 --exit-status -> 0 Service lifecycle gh run view 34418986897 --exit-status -> 0 React Doctor gh run view 34419067873 --exit-status -> 0 Enforce PR target branch Latest conclusion per check name at that SHA: twenty-six success, none failed, none cancelled, none pending. NOT RUN, and worth naming for this change in particular: no launchctl, no ocx service, no ocx start/stop/restart was executed anywhere while producing it. A live proxy is running on this machine and a separate task owns it, so the behaviour is proven by stderr fixtures against the injection seam and by remote CI. Also NOT RUN: bun run test, bun run typecheck, bun run build, bun run lint:gui, bun run privacy:scan, bun install.
…n#4141 unblock Three more rows are settled. lidge-jun#4153 merged as 2ce5f38 and closed lidge-jun#4147, as the contributor's own commit so authorship reaches his graph. lidge-jun#4160 merged as 8a5cfd3 and closed lidge-jun#3859. And PR lidge-jun#4152 landed as 9ba04b6, which frees lidge-jun#4141 to start. Two operational facts are written down because they were easy to get wrong. A fork pull request does not start repository CI by itself, so the thin check list on lidge-jun#4153 was action_required rather than a passing PR. And the force-push that unstacked lidge-jun#4160 left an earlier run cancelled at the same SHA, whose aggregate job then reported failure; that is the third cancelled run this round that could have been read as a verdict. Also records the one real defect the Lane B audit found. The free-only filter counts the group header from the unfiltered rows, so the header claims more models than the list shows. The empty state gets it right; the header does not. Assigned to Lane B. NOT RUN: local test suite, typecheck, build, lint. Remote CI is the gate.
After `ocx update` the service never came back. Update stops the service, replaces the binary, then runs `ocx service repair`, which on darwin is `installLaunchd`. That function best-effort `unload`ed the plist, ran `load -w`, and threw on any stderr matching Load failed or Bootstrap failed. `unload` is the legacy verb and it does not evict a job bootstrapped into the GUI domain. That is exactly the state modern launchd reports by writing "Load failed: 5: Input/output error" to stderr AND exiting 0, so a live-but-stale job was precisely the case that could not repair itself. The thrown text carried the `launchctl bootout` recipe as a hint that nothing ever executed. Evict with `bootout` instead, and if `load -w` still reports the job as bootstrapped, bootout once more and retry the load a single time before keeping the existing throw. `startLaunchd` already handles the same stderr correctly by asking whether the live job matches the current plist; repair does not go through it. This kills the live gui job. That is the repair the issue asks for, and it is also why the previous code only printed the command. Two things bound it: it runs only inside `installLaunchd`, which is already the "put the job back" path and has just rewritten the plist, so whatever is loaded is stale by construction; and it fires only after `load -w` has already failed, so a healthy job that loads cleanly is evicted once and reloaded, never retried. `ocx service start` is untouched and still refuses to evict anything. `launchctlLoadFailed` is deliberately unchanged. That regex is the 2026-08-02 silent-success guard; the fix is to recover from the condition, not to stop detecting it. The retry is scoped to that signal rather than to a non-zero exit, so a malformed plist surfaces its real stderr immediately instead of being retried pointlessly. `installLaunchd` gains the same all-optional `launchctl` injection seam `startLaunchd` has. This is not just for convenience: the live-service-manager guard added in lidge-jun#4152 refuses every mutating verb from an armed test process and `bootout` is not on its read-only list, so without the seam the regression tests would fail closed on the guard instead of exercising the sequence. No `matches` dep, because unlike `startLaunchd` this function never consults `launchdJobMatchesPlist`. The throw's hint no longer tells the operator to run `launchctl bootout` by hand, since the code now runs it twice. It reports what was attempted and points at `launchctl print` instead. `stopLaunchd`, `statusLaunchd` and `uninstallLaunchd` keep legacy `unload`: once install boots out before loading, changing them is not required and each has a test pinning its exact string. Closes lidge-jun#4141.

Summary
Running this repository's test suite can stop the proxy the developer is running. That is a bad thing to do to anyone dogfooding opencodex, and it is the one class of test damage the existing isolation does not cover.
tests/preload.tssandboxesHOME,OPENCODEX_HOMEandCODEX_HOMEon every invocation, including a barebun test <file>. That covers everything addressed by a path. A service manager is not addressed by a path.systemctl --user stop opencodex-proxy.serviceaddresses a job by name and talks to the user manager that is already running;launchctl bootout gui/<uid>/com.opencodex.proxytalks to launchd the same way. Neither consultsHOME, so a test that falls through to either one reaches the live service no matter how well the home is sandboxed.Windows has refused this for a while.
querySchtasksthrows on every non-query call while the test-home guard is armed, after a partially-faked service test replaced a real scheduled task with a launcher inside a temporary test home — the test passed, and cleanup deleted the launcher. macOS and Linux never got the equivalent.sh()and the realrunLaunchctlrunner now refuse a mutatinglaunchctlorsystemctlinvocation while the guard is armed, with a message that says what to do instead. Three properties keep it from being disruptive in the other direction:launchctl list,launchctl print,systemctl --user show,is-active,is-enabled,statusandshow-environmentare what the diagnostics are built on, and observation cannot take a service down.spawnSyncstand-in is untouched. The existingrunLaunchctlandstartLaunchdtests exercise output parsing through injected runners and keep working unchanged.OCX_TEST_HOME_GUARD=1, which only this repository's test preload sets, so a user runningocx service restartis unaffected.sh()is the choke point rather than each call site, so asystemctlorlaunchctlcall added later is covered without anyone remembering to guard it — the same fail-closed shape as the home guard itself.Verification
bun run test(full suite)bun run typecheckbun test tests/service/live-service-manager-guard.test.tsLocal execution was skipped on purpose for this one. The suite is what reaches a live service manager, and the machine this was written on is running opencodex.
The new test covers the four behaviors above directly: nine mutating commands across both managers throw, nine observation commands do not, unrelated commands are ignored, and an unarmed process is unaffected. It calls the predicate, so it never invokes a service manager itself.
