security: harden user-input attack surface (#50-#59) (#41)

* fix(sec): scope audit ingest recorder to run context (#20)

Replace the package-global ingestRecorder callback with a context.Context
value carried through the agent loop. This removes the race where
concurrent WebSocket sessions could overwrite each other's audit
attribution.

Key changes:
- internal/loop: add WithIngestRecorder / IngestRecorderFrom helpers.
- cmd/odek/untrusted.go: wrapUntrusted now reads the recorder from ctx;
  remove setIngestRecorder globals.
- cmd/odek tools: embed ctxTool and pass toolCtx() to wrapUntrusted.
- cmd/odek serve/main: inject per-session/per-prompt recorder into ctx.
- odek.go: toolAdapter forwards SetContext to odek.Tool implementations.
- Tests: add unit, integration, and concurrency regression tests.

Fixes finding #20 from sec_findings.md.

* fix(sec): scope prompt cancel by session ID (#19)

Replace the global currentPromptCancel atomic.Value with a mutex-protected
map keyed by session ID. POST /api/cancel now requires a session_id query
parameter, so one WebSocket connection cannot cancel another connection's
running prompt.

Changes:
- cmd/odek/serve.go: add promptCancels map + register/unregister/cancel helpers;
  handlePrompt registers/unregisters the cancel func for the session it runs;
  handleCancel requires session_id.
- cmd/odek/ui/app.js: include sessionId in cancel fetch URL.
- cmd/odek/serve_test.go: update existing cancel tests to pass session_id;
  add TestServe_Cancel_MissingSessionIDReturns400 and
  TestServe_Cancel_CannotCrossSessions regression test.

Fixes finding #19 from sec_findings.md.

* fix(sec): redact Session.Task before persisting (#21)

Store.Save already redacted Message.Content and ReasoningContent, but the
session Task field (the first user prompt / session title) was written to
disk verbatim. Secrets in the first prompt leaked into the session file and
index, and were returned by the session APIs.

Changes:
- internal/session/session.go: redact sess.Task in saveLocked before
  marshalling and updating the index.
- internal/session/session_test.go: add TestStore_SaveRedactsTask covering
  in-memory, on-disk, and index redaction of the Task field.

Fixes finding #21 from sec_findings.md.

* fix(sec): confine glob/search_files patterns to workspace (#22)

Replace filepath.Glob in glob and search_files(target=files) with a
workspace-confined walk helper. filepath.Glob follows symlinked directory
components and resolves .. segments, allowing patterns like link/*.txt or
../.ssh/id_* to enumerate files outside the working directory.

Changes:
- cmd/odek/file_tool.go: add confinedGlob helper using filepath.WalkDir,
  skipping all symlinks, rejecting .. and absolute patterns, and verifying
  every match stays inside the resolved root. Refactor globTool.Call and
  searchFilesTool.searchFiles to use it.
- cmd/odek/security_vulnerabilities_test.go: add
  TestGlob_DotDotPatternRejected, TestSearchFiles_DotDotPatternRejected, and
  TestGlob_AbsolutePatternRejected.

Fixes finding #22 from sec_findings.md.

* fix(sec): nonce sub-agent untrusted-input fence (#24)

buildSubagentRequest previously wrapped untrusted parent input in constant
<untrusted_input> tags with no per-call nonce and no neutralisation of the
marker string inside the body. A crafted </untrusted_input> in the goal or
context could close the fence early and inject instructions.

Changes:
- cmd/odek/subagent.go: add wrapUntrustedSubagentInput and
  neutraliseSubagentInputLiterals helpers. Generate a random nonce per
  request, emit <untrusted_input_<nonce>> tags, and replace literal
  occurrences of untrusted_input with a look-alike so injected close tags
  cannot pair with the wrapper.
- cmd/odek/subagent_prompt_isolation_test.go: update
  TestSubagentRequest_UntrustedIsFenced for nonce'd tags; add
  TestSubagentRequest_UntrustedNeutralisesCloseTag regression test.

Fixes finding #24 from sec_findings.md.

* fix(sec): reject symlinks in sandbox --ctx injection (#25)

InjectFiles used os.Stat, which follows symlinks, and only verified that
the symlink path itself was under cwd. A symlink committed inside the
project pointing at an arbitrary host file (e.g. leak -> /etc/shadow)
would have its target copied into the container.

Changes:
- internal/sandbox/sandbox.go: use os.Lstat in InjectFiles; reject any ctx
  file that is a symlink. Resolve cwd to an absolute path and use
  isPathUnder for the relative-path check.
- internal/sandbox/sandbox_test.go: add TestInjectFiles_SkipsSymlink.

Fixes finding #25 from sec_findings.md.

* fix(sec): allowlist sandbox network modes (#26)

BuildRunArgs only rewrote 'host' to 'none', but other Docker network modes
such as 'container:<name>' were passed through unchanged. That allowed the
sandbox to share another container's network namespace and bypass intended
network isolation.

Changes:
- internal/sandbox/sandbox.go: enforce an allowlist of 'none' and 'bridge'
  for --sandbox-network; reject any other value (including 'container:...')
  by forcing it to 'none' with a warning. Empty Network defaults to
  'bridge'.
- internal/sandbox/sandbox_test.go: add tests for container:, bridge,
  empty, and host network modes.

Fixes finding #26 from sec_findings.md.

* fix(sec): FD-based API key handoff for Telegram restart child (#28)

spawnChild copied os.Environ() and re-injected ODEK_API_KEY,
DEEPSEEK_API_KEY, and OPENAI_API_KEY, leaving the key visible in the child
process environment (/proc/<pid>/environ) and crash dumps.

Changes:
- cmd/odek/telegram.go: reuse the existing FD-based key handoff helpers
  (writeKeyToUnlinkedFile / readKeyFromInheritedFD). telegramCmd reads the
  key from  if present; spawnChild writes the resolved key
  to an unlinked tempfile and passes the FD to the child via the safe
  ODEK_API_KEY_FD signal env var instead of the key itself.
- cmd/odek/telegram_test.go: replace env-injection test with a ProcAttr
  interception test that verifies the key is passed via FD 3 and absent
  from the child env.

Fixes finding #28 from sec_findings.md.

* fix(sec): harden Telegram document filename sanitization (#30)

sanitizeDocName only stripped directory components and rejected empty/.
/.. names. It allowed hidden files, arbitrary characters, and very long
filenames, so an attacker could send a document named '.bashrc' or an
overlong filename that would be saved under ~/.odek/media/.

Changes:
- internal/telegram/download.go: reject names starting with '.', restrict
  characters to [A-Za-z0-9._-] (replacing others with '_'), enforce a
  maxDocNameLen of 200 while preserving the extension, and factor out
  fallbackDocName.
- internal/telegram/download_test.go: add test cases for hidden files,
  unsafe characters, Unicode names, and overlong names.

Fixes finding #30 from sec_findings.md.

* Fix #31: decline auto-save of tainted skills; require --force to promote

- AutoSaveSuggestions now skips suggestions with untrusted provenance unless allowUntrusted is true.

- RunAutoSaveLoop declines tainted skills by default and logs them.

- promoteSkill refuses to clear NeedsReview on tainted skills without --force.

- CLI help, SECURITY.md, LEARNING.md, README.md, and AGENTS.md updated.

- Added/updated tests for promote refusal/force and auto-save decline/allow paths.

* Fix #34: escalate interpreters that can invoke shell commands to code_execution

- Add embeddedShellInterpreters map for awk/gawk/mawk/nawk, ed/ex, vi/vim/nvim/view, emacs/emacsclient.

- Classify their non-version/help invocations as code_execution.

- Detect sed 'e' command, -f/--file, and s///e flag as code_execution.

- Remove awk from writePrefixes; add embeddedShellInterpreters to isKnownCommandName.

- Add regression tests for awk, sed, vim, find -exec bypasses.

- Update SECURITY.md and AGENTS.md.

* Fix #37: cap MCP server stdout line size to prevent OOM

- Replace unbounded bufio.Reader.ReadString with bufio.Scanner limited to 10 MiB per line.

- On oversized line, report error to pending callers and close the connection.

- Add TestReadLoop_OversizedResponse regression test.

* security: harden MCP tools/list metadata trust (#38)

- Validate MCP tool names in internal/mcpclient/client.go Discover:
  ASCII letters/digits/_/-, non-empty, <=64 chars.
- Reject raw MCP tool names that shadow odek built-ins in cmd/odek/main.go
  loadMCPTools, even though prefixed names are normally used.
- Add per-tool approval for project-level MCP servers in
  cmd/odek/mcp_approval.go, persisted in ~/.odek/mcp_tool_approvals.json.
- Reuse ODEK_APPROVE_MCP env var for both server and tool approvals.
- Add unit tests and E2E coverage for name validation, shadowing, and
  approval gating.
- Update docs/SECURITY.md, AGENTS.md, and docs/MCP.md.

* security: cap file sizes in read-only perf tools and inline inputs (#39, #40)

- Add 10 MiB size checks to count_lines, checksum, head_tail, and
  word_count before scanning/hashing, matching other perf tools.
- Add maxInlineContentBytes (10 MiB) and enforce it on base64 inline
  string/content and tr inline content arguments.
- Add tests for each new size-cap rejection path.
- Update docs/SECURITY.md and AGENTS.md.

* test+docs: increase coverage of size-cap changes and keep docs consistent

- Add exact-size boundary tests for count_lines, checksum, head_tail,
  word_count, base64 inline content, and tr inline content.
- Add tail-mode and decode-string oversized rejection tests for head_tail
  and base64 to cover both branches.
- Add CHEATSHEET note listing the perf tools with 10 MiB file/inline caps.

* security: fix schedule locking/JSON caps and nonce tool-result delimiters (#41-#43)

- internal/schedule/store.go: fileLock now returns an error instead of a
  silent no-op fallback; all mutating callers (Add, Put, Remove, SetEnabled,
  SaveState) abort when the flock cannot be acquired.
- internal/schedule/store.go: readJSON now Stat()s schedule/state files and
  rejects anything larger than 10 MiB before reading.
- internal/loop/loop.go: tool-result delimiter now embeds a per-call random
  hex nonce in both the opening and closing lines, preventing a tool or MCP
  server from forging the closing delimiter.
- Add/update tests for lock failure, oversized schedule file, exact-size
  boundary, and nonce uniqueness.
- Update docs/SECURITY.md and AGENTS.md.

* security: fix parallel_shell/batch_patch/browser/telegram/restart findings (#44-#48)

- parallel_shell: bind commands to agent context via CommandContext, run
  each in its own process group, kill the group on cancellation/timeout,
  and cap per-command timeouts at 30 minutes.
- batch_patch: add trustedClasses field and pass it to CheckOperation for
  consistent approval behavior with write_file/patch.
- browser: wrap clickableRef.URL as untrusted; keep rawURL for internal
  click resolution.
- telegram: enforce MaxMsgLength in UTF-16 code units instead of bytes.
- telegram: write restart.json with 0600 instead of 0644.
- Add regression tests for all five fixes.
- Update docs/SECURITY.md and AGENTS.md.

* test+docs: increase coverage of #44-#48 changes and keep CHEATSHEET current

- Add TestParallelShell_ContextCancel_Explicit to cover the
  context.Canceled branch in runOne.
- Add TestBrowser_Click_ButtonAcknowledges and
  TestBrowser_Click_InputSubmitAcknowledges to cover button/submit click
  paths and increase browser_tool.go coverage.
- Update docs/CHEATSHEET.md: parallel_shell process-group kill, browser
  URL wrapping, Telegram flock/0600 restart marker/UTF-16 length limits.

* security: fixes #50-#53 (Telegram MarkdownV2 escape, resource limit cap, WS connection limits, sub-agent progress bounds)

- #50: Escape agent-generated text in send_message before Telegram MarkdownV2 send
- #51: Cap /api/resources limit to 100 in handler and Registry.Search
- #52: Enforce max 20 concurrent WebSocket connections + per-IP upgrade rate limit
- #53: Cap sub-agent progress stream at 100k lines / 100 MiB and cancel child on overflow

Tests and docs (SECURITY.md, CHEATSHEET.md) updated.

* security: harden #54-#59 (subagent cleanup, fsatomic, resource search, schedule perms, config TOCTOU, flock docs)

- Scope sub-agent --task file deletion to odek temp files only
- Create fsatomic temp files with exact perms via O_EXCL + random suffix
- Sanitize resource search query: 256-byte cap + glob metachar escaping
- Create schedule directory with 0700 permissions
- Read config via single Open+LimitReader to remove size-check TOCTOU
- Document advisory flock semantics in package doc
- Update SECURITY.md with defenses 43-48 and attack-vector rows

 - **Untrusted-content wrapper** (`cmd/odek/untrusted.go`) — every tool whose output sources from outside the trust boundary (`browser`, `read_file`, `shell`, `search_files`, `multi_grep`, `transcribe`, `head_tail`, `diff`, `tr`, `sort`, `json_query`, `batch_patch`, `glob`, `file_info`, `tree`, `base64` file mode, `session_search`, `@-resources`, `--ctx` files, any MCP tool) wraps results in `<untrusted_content_<nonce> source="...">…</untrusted_content_<nonce>>`. Browser page title and interactive-element text are wrapped in addition to the main content. Per-call nonce defeats wrapper-escape via literal close tag.
 - **Audit log** (`cmd/odek/audit.go` + `internal/session/audit.go`) — every `wrapUntrusted` call records source + content-hash + turn into `<sessions>/audit/<id>.json`. After each turn a divergence heuristic flags `suspicious_divergence=true` when the agent ingested untrusted content AND its actions or final response reference resources that either did not appear in the user's message or were introduced by the untrusted content itself (closing response-only exfiltration and reused-resource injection bypasses). Inspect with `odek audit <session-id>` / `odek audit --list`.
 - **Memory taint** (`internal/memory/provenance.go`) — `EpisodeProvenance` tracks Untrusted/Sources/UserApproved. Tainted episodes are stored but `Search()` filters them out, so a one-shot injection cannot persist via the episode pipeline. User must explicitly promote.
-- **Skill provenance gate** (`internal/skills/loader.go` + `cache.go`) — `Skill.Provenance{Untrusted, Sources, NeedsReview}`. NeedsReview skills pin to Lazy regardless of `auto_load`. `odek skill promote <name>` clears the flag after user review.

The auto-save path declines tainted suggestions by default, and `odek skill promote <name> --force` clears the flag after explicit user review.
 - **Sub-agent damage cap** (`cmd/odek/subagent.go::applySubagentTrust`) — `delegate_tasks` carries `trust_level` + `max_risk`. Untrusted ⇒ NonInteractive=deny, Destructive/CodeExec/Install/SystemWrite/NetworkEgress all forced to Deny. `max_risk` ⇒ everything above cap forced to Deny.
 - **FD-based API key handoff** (`cmd/odek/subagent_key.go`) — parent writes key to a 0600 tempfile, immediately `unlink()`s, passes the FD via `cmd.ExtraFiles`. Sub-agent reads from `$ODEK_API_KEY_FD` and closes. Key never in `/proc/<pid>/environ`.
 - **Approver friction** (`internal/danger/approver.go`, `cmd/odek/wsapprover.go`) — both TTYApprover and WSApprover engage friction mode after 3 approvals of the same class in 60s: require typing literal `approve`, 1.5s pause. Trust-class shortcut disabled for `destructive` + `blocked` regardless.

 - **Sandbox read-only enforcement** (`cmd/odek/sandbox_file.go` + `cmd/odek/file_tool.go` + `cmd/odek/perf_tools.go`) — when a sandbox container is active, `write_file`, `patch`, and `batch_patch` translate host paths to `/workspace/...` and copy data into the container with `docker cp`, so a read-only workspace mount (`--sandbox-readonly`) is enforced for the agent's own file tools.
 - **Project config sensitive-field rejection** (`internal/config/loader.go`) — `./odek.json` is untrusted, so `base_url`, `api_key`, `system`, and the `dangerous` section set there are ignored (with stderr warnings). These can only be configured from operator-controlled sources: `~/.odek/config.json`, `ODEK_*` env vars, or CLI flags.
 - **MCP subprocess environment sanitisation** (`internal/mcpclient/client.go`) — MCP server children receive only a minimal allowlist of safe environment variables plus explicit `env` overrides. Keys matching secret patterns (`*_API_KEY`, `*_TOKEN`, `*_SECRET`, `*_PASSWORD`, etc.) are stripped, preventing a compromised or malicious MCP server from reading parent secrets.
+- **MCP `tools/list` metadata hardening** (`internal/mcpclient/client.go`, `cmd/odek/mcp_approval.go`, `cmd/odek/main.go`) — tool names from MCP servers are validated (ASCII letters/digits/`-`/`_`, ≤ 64 chars) and descriptions are scanned for injection patterns. Tools whose raw names collide with odek built-ins are rejected. Each tool from a project-level server requires per-tool approval (interactive, `ODEK_APPROVE_MCP=1`, or persisted in `~/.odek/mcp_tool_approvals.json`); global servers from `~/.odek/config.json` are operator-trusted.
+- **Read-only perf-tool file-size cap** (`cmd/odek/perf_tools.go`) — `count_lines`, `checksum`, `head_tail`, and `word_count` reject files larger than 10 MiB before scanning/hashing, consistent with other perf tools.
+- **Inline content size cap** (`cmd/odek/perf_tools.go`) — `base64` and `tr` reject inline `string`/`content` arguments larger than 10 MiB, preventing prompt-injected multi-hundred-megabyte payloads from OOMing the process.
 - **Schedule atomic-write hardening** (`internal/schedule/store.go` + `internal/fsatomic`) — schedule file writes now use `fsatomic.WriteFile`, which creates a random temp file with `O_EXCL`, fsyncs data and directory, and renames over the target. A swapped-in symlink is replaced rather than followed, closing the symlink-override attack on `schedules.json` / `schedule-state.json`.
+- **Schedule cross-process lock hard error** (`internal/schedule/store.go`) — `fileLock` now returns an error instead of silently falling back to a no-op releaser when `~/.odek/schedules.lock` cannot be opened or locked. Mutating schedule operations abort rather than risk two concurrent processes loading the same baseline and overwriting each other.
+- **Schedule JSON file-size cap** (`internal/schedule/store.go`) — `schedules.json` and `schedule-state.json` are rejected if larger than 10 MiB before being read into memory, preventing a tampered multi-gigabyte file from OOMing the scheduler.
+- **Nonce'd tool-result delimiter** (`internal/loop/loop.go`) — the static `┌── TOOL RESULT: ... └── END TOOL RESULT: ...` delimiter is now unique per tool call via a random hex nonce embedded in both the opening and closing lines. A tool or MCP server can no longer forge the closing delimiter to break out of the data framing and inject instructions.
+- **`parallel_shell` context + process-group kill** (`cmd/odek/perf_tools.go`) — commands now run via `exec.CommandContext` bound to the agent context, in their own process group. Cancellation or timeout kills the whole group (negative PID), so `sh -c 'sleep 3600 &'` cannot leave orphaned children. Per-command timeouts are also capped at 30 minutes.
+- **`batch_patch` trusted-class propagation** (`cmd/odek/perf_tools.go`) — `batch_patch` now passes its cached `trustedClasses` to `CheckOperation`, matching `write_file` and `patch`. A trusted `local_write` class is honored across all patches in the batch instead of re-prompting per patch.
+- **Browser link URL wrapping** (`cmd/odek/browser_tool.go`) — interactive element text was already wrapped as untrusted, but link URLs in `clickableRef.URL` were returned raw. They are now wrapped too, while an unexported `rawURL` is kept for internal click resolution.
+- **Telegram message length by UTF-16 code units** (`internal/telegram/handler.go`) — `MaxMsgLength` is enforced using UTF-16 code-unit counting, matching Telegram's own limits. Multi-byte UTF-8 characters (e.g. emoji) no longer pass the local check while being rejected by Telegram.
+- **Telegram restart marker permissions** (`cmd/odek/telegram.go`) — `~/.odek/restart.json` is now written with `0600` instead of `0644`, preventing local users from reading the list of active chat IDs.
 - **Telegram singleton flock lock** (`cmd/odek/telegram.go` + `internal/flock`) — the Telegram bot now uses an advisory `flock` on `~/.odek/telegram.lock` instead of a PID file probed with signals. This removes the non-Linux path where a planted PID could cause odek to kill an arbitrary process.
 - **Telegram photo caption wrapping** (`cmd/odek/telegram.go`) — photo captions cross the Telegram trust boundary, so they are wrapped as untrusted content both when passed to the local vision model and when injected into the main agent's user message.
 - **`send_message` callback prefix restriction** (`internal/tool/send_message.go` + `cmd/odek/telegram.go`) — the `send_message` tool rejects any button whose `callback_data` starts with a reserved internal prefix (`apr:`, `den:`, `trs:`, `clarify:`, `skill_save:`, `skill_skip:`); only user-facing `cb:` callbacks are allowed. The Telegram sender closure validates again as defense-in-depth, preventing a forged approval or skill button.
