Summary

With WorkBuddy AI 5.7.6 / bundled CLI 2.156.0, a directly spawned ACP process can open Sessions and list Models but cannot read the encrypted desktop login: native logs report missing-key and hasAccessToken=false, then every Prompt returns refusal / FAILED_MODEL_REQUEST.

Initialize credential protection inside the selected WorkBuddy Electron process before loading its bundled CLI. The app's native storage binding supplies its build key; the bootstrap matches native key normalization and sends it to the CLI's credential-bootstrap receiver over a one-use random local pipe/socket. The native CLI then reads the existing encrypted credentials itself. The same real request now returns SUCCESS and 2; closing, resuming, and asking a follow-up returns 3.

  • Keep key material inside the native child and its startup IPC; no keys in arguments, environment variables, files, or output, and no Host-side Token copying/decryption.
  • Preserve caller-owned bootstrap environments and explicit standalone CLI overrides. App runtimes without the storage binding retain their previous startup path.
  • Bound startup, validate the native acknowledgement, clean up bootstrap resources, and fail startup on invalid key payloads or rejected bootstrap.
  • Preserve structured native authentication errors and sanitized diagnostics when authentication still fails.
  • Document the app-internal compatibility dependency and the tested field-encryption policy. No Desktop owner runtime activation or existing Desktop task takeover is involved.

Related issues

Addresses #464. Real validation used Windows, codexhost 0.13.2, WorkBuddy AI 5.7.6 and bundled CLI 2.156.0. Native macOS operation and other encryption policies have not been verified locally.

Test plan

  • Added subprocess regression tests through workBuddyInvocation: the simulated native CLI decrypts an existing encrypted credential fixture after the bootstrap. Before the fix it exits with Authentication required: credential key unavailable. Also cover legacy runtimes, existing managed bootstrap, invalid native key payloads, and rejected acknowledgements.
  • Added public WorkBuddy Adapter tests for authentication metadata/category, other refusal categories, diagnostic sanitization, older plain-text diagnostics, and missing metadata fallback.
  • npm run build:typescript, npm run typecheck, npm run lint — passed.
  • npx vitest run --config tests/vitest.config.js packages/adapters/workbuddy/test packages/adapters/codebuddy/test/codebuddy-adapter.test.ts --reporter=dot — 133 passed, 1 skipped. After making the subprocess fixture use platform-appropriate app paths, its 5 cases passed again.
  • Prettier checks for changed files, the pre-commit formatting hook, and git diff --check — passed.
  • Live source Adapter: authenticated create/Prompt (2), close, resume, and follow-up (3) passed with the installed native WorkBuddy runtime.
  • Live local installation: temporarily preload the same bootstrap from the installed CLI entry; the currently installed codexhost WorkBuddy plugin passed the same create/close/resume/two-Prompt test. A previously failing idle CodexHost Session was restarted through normal Host recovery; native logs now show hasAccessToken=true and a successful loadSession for its original identity. No new prompt was sent into the user's existing chat.
  • Expanded CodeBuddy/WorkBuddy suites were also attempted earlier: 261 passed, 1 skipped, 2 failed at fs.symlink with Windows EPERM in unchanged session-import.test.ts and subagent-observer.test.ts. The initial Windows CI run failed separately in unchanged console-server/test/updates.test.ts while reading partially written JSON; the updated commit has a fresh CI run.
  • Desktop confirmation: the reporting user successfully created a new WorkBuddy chat in the running CodexHost-launched Codex Desktop after the local bootstrap patch.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • 新功能
    • macOS 内置 WorkBuddy 启动现可读取应用加密凭据,让集成能够使用桌面应用凭据;凭据保护初始化失败时,启动会停止,不会改用明文凭据。
  • 问题修复
    • WorkBuddy 原生请求被拒绝时,可根据认证错误提示重新登录;其他错误继续显示诊断信息,无法读取诊断时保留原有提示。
  • 文档
    • 补充凭据引导未生效时的日志症状及私有运行时边界说明。

WorkBuddy 捆绑版 CLI 启动前新增凭据引导,并新增失败停止和兼容处理。Native Turn 错误处理现在从 ACP 元数据提取诊断,并按类别映射错误码。相关测试和集成文档已更新。

Changes: WorkBuddy 凭据引导

Layer / File(s) Summary
引导脚本与 CLI 启动
packages/adapters/workbuddy/src/credential-bootstrap.ts, packages/adapters/workbuddy/src/command.ts
新增 Electron preload 脚本。脚本校验密钥载荷,与 sidecar 建立引导连接,并验证接收端确认。捆绑版 CLI 在加载前执行该脚本;非捆绑启动不添加这些参数。
启动参数验证与兼容测试
packages/adapters/workbuddy/test/credential-bootstrap.test.ts, packages/adapters/workbuddy/test/command.test.ts, packages/adapters/workbuddy/test/delegation.test.ts, packages/adapters/workbuddy/test/discovery.test.ts, docs/harnesses/workbuddy/workbuddy-harness-integration.md
测试覆盖引导成功、旧版绑定回退、托管配置保留及引导失败时停止启动。其他启动测试检查新增参数。文档说明启动入口、凭据引导边界和失败症状。

Native Turn 错误处理

Layer / File(s) Summary
提取诊断并映射 Native Turn 错误
packages/adapters/codebuddy/src/common.ts, packages/adapters/codebuddy/src/session.ts, packages/adapters/workbuddy/test/native-auth-errors.test.ts, docs/harnesses/workbuddy/workbuddy-harness-integration.md
新增 nativeTurnError,从错误元数据提取诊断,并将 auth 类别映射为 authenticationRequired;其他情况映射为 nativeFailure。Native Turn 失败时改用该函数生成错误。测试覆盖错误映射、诊断脱敏及无诊断时的回退消息。文档说明认证诊断。

An incomplete credential configuration can leave existing encrypted credentials unreadable. Handle that configuration explicitly; the risk is limited to affected launches.

75-75: 🩺 Stability & Availability

无法判定 cleanup() 是否会在确认后破坏原生接收器的 session/new 或重连流程。该结论需要目标版本的原生接收器实现,以及它对 CODEBUDDY_SIDECAR_READY_SOCKET 生命周期的明确约定。

packages/adapters/workbuddy/src/command.ts: 1

187-188: 🩺 Stability & Availability

原评论的关键前提仍无法判定。代码证明 preload 在没有接收器时会在 4.5 秒后以状态 1 退出,但仓库没有证明 --print --fork-session 不会创建接收器。相关文档和测试仅覆盖 ACP 启动或通用接收流程,未覆盖该管理模式。目标内置 CLI 的对应行为不可从现有证据确定。

不要把单个环境变量当作完整的受管引导。

如果调用方只设置 WORKBUDDY_AT_REST_ENCRYPTION=fields,此处就跳过密钥提供者。内置 CLI 随后拿不到本次引导的密钥,已有加密凭据仍无法读取。仅在受管引导配置完整时保留该配置;对不完整的配置应明确处理,而不是静默跳过。
