fix(utils): key the advisory file lock by identity, not by path spelling - #2368
Part of the 2356 contract: the advisory lock in src/utils/fileLock.ts keyed proper-lockfile on path.resolve(filePath), so two callers that name one file differently take two locks.
Measured before writing it (.tmp-cr-audit/short-name-probe.mjs, pinned node v22.23.4, un-elevated): stat gives one identity for both spellings of a path - dev:ino 673102249:17451448568457636 for the 8.3 alias and the long form of the same directory - while fs.realpath and fs.realpathSyncreturn whatever spelling they are handed and only fs.realpathSync.native expands the alias. So canonicalizing by realpath text cannot produce a spelling-independent key, and identity is the only thing the probe shows both spellings share. Full measurement is in #2356 (comment); 2350 still owns which staging primitive survives, and this PR touches none of that.
What changed (src/utils/fileLock.ts +80/-2, src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.test.ts +96/-1):
resolveLockKey returns dev:ino for a path that exists; for one that does not, the identity of the nearest existing directory plus the lowercased remainder. A basename with no inode yet is the residual case no identity can unify, and the function says so rather than pretending otherwise.
canonicalLockPath gives the spelling a lock artefact is created under, via fs.realpathSync.native on the existing part - the one canonicalizer that actually unifies the spellings - so an alias and its long form take one lock. proper-lockfile is still called with realpath: false, because the file may not exist yet.
Gating, disclosed rather than smoothed. The 8.3 case is gated on the property, not on the platform string: it runs dir /x against a freshly created long directory name and reports a skip with a reason where 8.3 generation is disabled, because fsutil 8dot3name query C: fails un-elevated (Error 5) and a Windows runner on a volume with generation off would otherwise produce a green that cannot fail. Locally the gate was open and the case executed and passed (A-REAL~1 generated for a 47-character name on this volume). The linux unit leg does not execute this case.
Verification. Focused spec utils/__tests__/fileLock.test.ts on pinned v22.23.4: Tests 6 passed (6). Two negative controls, each restoring the file afterwards:
canonicalLockPath returning the resolved spelling instead of the canonical one: 1 failed | 5 passed, failing exactly at expect(canonicalLockPath(aliasFile)).toBe(canonicalLockPath(file));
resolveLockKey returning the resolved spelling instead of identity: 2 failed | 4 passed, including the alias key assertion - the assertion this fix owes, and the one a spelling-preserving canonicalizer passes while the key is identity-backed.
eslint --prune-suppressions --max-warnings=0 on both files: exit 0, and src/eslint-suppressions.json unchanged apart from the prune run's own line-ending rewrite, which was discarded. prettier --check clean.

Tree note, so the check runs are read correctly:npx tsc --noEmit -p tsconfig.json reports one error - activate/registerCommands.ts(88,102) TS2739 missing the four *InTab command callbacks - and it is present at pristine 5319fe91fb in this worktree with the same dependencies, i.e. junction/dependency skew rather than anything in this diff; this commit adds no type error. CI on a clean install is the authoritative tsc for this branch.
Merge-order contention, measured rather than assumed: 16 refs in this series already modify src/utils/fileLock.ts (fws/u4-read-scope-recording, fws/u5-guard-core, fws/u9a, fws/u9b, vps2f-1913-u4, vps2f-1914-u5/u5a/u5b (= this branch's sibling, PR 2357), u5b-aprime-local, vps2f-1914-u5c, plus their origin/ copies), across at least three different fileLock.ts blobs. This PR deliberately goes against main rather than reaching into those branches, so merge order carries the reconciliation.
Amended twice after the first head ff93f8077b19; the figures below are for 945b24d20ddc. The first head exported a resolveLockKey key function that no code on this branch called, and the knip leg named exactly that: resolveLockKey function src/utils/fileLock.ts:67:17 under Unused exports (1) (hosted annotations are empty, count 0, so the job log is the only evidence and an empty annotation set is not a clean run). Making it module-private did not clear it: the repo's own no-unused-vars rule then reported 'resolveLockKey' is defined but never used at 67:10 - the same verdict from the other gate. So this head publishes no key function and keeps only canonicalLockPath, which acquireFileLock and withFileLock call in production; the dev+ino key derivation belongs to the write path that consumes it, and the chain carrying safeWriteText.ts already calls resolveLockKey in production. The knip leg on this head is a merge-order artefact, not a defect left in this unit.
Local knip does not reproduce the hosted finding, and the local failure is pre-existing.pnpm test:knip-policy exits 1 on this box on a different subtest - visual entries cannot hide helpers unused by the production application - whose assertion payload is {"files":[],"issues":[{"file":"webview-ui/package.json",..."devDependencies":[{"name":"vite"}],"binaries":[{"name":"vite"}]...}]}: an empty source set with no fileLock.ts entry. It fails the same way on the pinned v22.23.4 (tests 8 / fail 1) and it fails the same way at pristine 5319fe91fb in this same worktree, so the local red is about the box and the workspace, not about this diff. Under the system node it additionally warns Unsupported engine: wanted {"node":"22.23.4"}. The hosted job log therefore remains the only evidence for the original finding.
Figures for this head (main-tip selector selectFromGit(repoRoot, baseSha, headSha)): src/utils/fileLock.ts +54/-2 and src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.test.ts +106/-1 versus main; extension package 28 changed executable lines against MAX_CHANGED_LINES 500 - down from 38 on the first head, because deleting the dead helper removed counted lines rather than trimming a test.
The test moved from a pure-function assertion to the shipped behaviour: acquire the lock under the alias spelling, then attempt the same file under the long spelling and require ELOCKED rather than a second lock, with the lock table standing in for proper-lockfile said in the test's own comment; plus two companion cases (two files in one directory take two locks; one not-yet-existing path takes one lock while a different name takes another). Focused spec on pinned v22.23.4: Tests 5 passed (5). Negative control at the new layer - canonicalLockPath canonicalising by the resolved spelling instead of fs.realpathSync.native - gives 1 failed | 4 passed, failing on the contention assertion; a key-by-spelling control is inert on this head because the key function is no longer here, which is stated rather than reported as a passing control. eslint --prune-suppressions --max-warnings=0 exit 0 on both files, prettier --check clean.

Summary
Summary by CodeRabbit
Bug Fixes
File locking now recognizes alternate path spellings for the same file, including supported Windows short-name aliases and directory or file links.
Distinct existing files and missing paths continue to receive separate locks.
Lock files now use the canonical filename spelling within the path’s directory.
Lock identity remains accurate for very large file identifiers and falls back to the resolved path when filesystem identity is unavailable.
Concurrent updates and lock renewal are more reliable, including when lock acquisition fails or updates are queued.
Lock acquisition now uses a key based on the nearest existing directory’s device and inode, plus the remaining path components. Lock artifacts use the canonical spelling of the final path component. Tests cover aliases, contention across processes, JSON merges, and timer cleanup.
Changes: Canonical file lock keys
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Derive lock keys and artifact paths src/utils/fileLock.ts, src/utils/lockLeafSpelling.ts, src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.test.ts
canonicalLockKey combines the nearest existing directory’s device and inode with remaining path components. It falls back to the resolved path if directory identity is unavailable. acquireFileLock sets lockfilePath using the canonical final-component spelling plus .lock. Tests cover key composition, artifact naming, caller-path preservation, and identity precision.
Verify alias contention and release src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.test.ts
Tests cover artifact placement and contention across directory and leaf aliases. They also cover queued writes during link replacement and lock release ordering.
Verify process contention and lifecycle src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.test.ts
Child-process tests cover contention, lock coexistence, and concurrent JSON merges. Timer tests cover acquisition and release during referent and link replacement.
Zoo-Code-Org/Zoo-Code#2404: The PR changes lock-key derivation to use directory identity. The issue’s concern about fallback behavior remains relevant.
Zoo-Code-Org/Zoo-Code#2356: The PR uses device and inode identity for directory aliases but retains the final path component spelling in the key, so the issue is only partly addressed.
Possibly related PRs
Zoo-Code-Org/Zoo-Code#2383: Both PRs change lock-key derivation for path aliases, using different key functions.
Zoo-Code-Org/Zoo-Code#2359: Both PRs define lock-key behavior for symlink and alias paths, using different key functions.
Merge Risk: Low · up to 86119
The change makes different spellings of an existing path contend on the same advisory lock. A narrow edge case remains where a symlink leaf is replaced while a writer is waiting, and some test cleanup is still open. Owner awareness is enough before merge, and no severe failure is established.

Explanation
The title states the main change: the advisory file lock is keyed by file identity (device and inode) instead of path spelling. The changeset adds canonicalLockKey and canonicalLockPath or canonicalLeafSpelling in src/utils/fileLock.ts and related helpers, and the tests cover alias spellings. The title is specific and matches the objectives. Its length of 72 characters is at the upper end of a concise title but acceptable.
Full details: Regression Evidence
Explanation
The PR changes three behaviors in the lock path: canonicalLockKey keys the lock by identity (dev:ino plus the unresolved tail), statIdentity reads inodes as BigInt, and acquireFileLock passes an artefact path from canonicalLeafSpelling, which falls back to the caller's spelling when realpathSync.native throws. Each behavior has focused coverage in src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.test.ts: - Identity keying and aliases. The mocked-lock suite asserts that an 8.3 alias and its long form share one key and one lock. These cases are gated on a short-name probe, and the author reports a local run. - Portable leaf substitution. The test at lines 204-236 replaces fs.realpathSync.native and asserts the artefact name passed to proper-lockfile. It runs on every platform, so it covers the Linux leg, which skips the 8.3 cases. - Real-library contention. The "contend with the real library" suite uses vi.importActual and runs a junction spelling on every platform. A cross-process suite starts a child that loads the production acquireFileLock through tsx. - Unset and error branches. The not-yet-existing path test exercises the canonicalLeafSpelling catch branch through acquireFileLock on every platform. The fallback test at lines 704-710 covers the no-identity case. The ELOCKED refusals are asserted in several suites. - BigInt precision. Lines 629-710 cover adjacent inodes above 2^53, using a delegating fs.statSync double. Real filesystems cannot produce those inodes, so this is the lowest practical layer. The mocked suites only check key equality, and the file acknowledges this. The real-library and cross-process suites check the on-disk artefact, so the gap is covered at a lower layer. The child holder computes its artefact through the production canonicalLeafSpelling, so it does not mirror the implementation. Several open review threads concern cleanup ordering, retry windows, and fixed hold delays in the test harness. Those are test-hygiene issues. They do not show missing coverage for a changed behavior, so they do not trigger this check. The PR is not a UI change, so the Playwright snapshot condition does not apply.
Full details: Security Boundaries
Explanation
The check fails only for a changed path that leaks secrets or PII, trusts or executes unvalidated input, or bypasses approval or allowlist controls. The changed-file inventory is three files: src/utils/fileLock.ts (M), src/utils/lockLeafSpelling.ts (A), and src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.test.ts (M). Reviewed fileLock.ts diff: - Secrets or PII: No new logging of secret or PII data. The only trace call, tracePersistenceEvent("json-lock-wait", { filePath }), logs the same resolved path the existing code already logged. - Unvalidated input:canonicalLockKey and lockArtefactPath take the caller-supplied path, which the pre-existing code also took. They add fs.statSync and fs.realpathSync.native calls, but they do not execute the path or pass it to a shell. The lock artefact is the canonical leaf spelling joined into the same directory, so it does not move outside the caller's directory. The only effect of a hostile symlink is a lock-directory name taken from the link target's basename, in a directory the attacker already controls. - Approval or allowlist bypass: None. The change touches only the lock key and lock artefact path. It adds no new access path, permission check, or allowlist decision. The primary PR author is easonLiangWorldedtech (verified). Identity does not affect this check.
Full details: Persistence Integrity
Explanation
The standing FAIL still holds at head 86119de. I checked the current code and it matches the prior claims. Changed path (verified in the diff and current files): - src/utils/fileLock.ts lines 96-98: lockArtefactPath returns canonicalLeafSpelling(absolutePath) + ".lock". - Lines 102 and 106: acquireFileLock passes that value as lockfilePath to proper-lockfile. - src/utils/lockLeafSpelling.ts lines 18-23: canonicalLeafSpelling uses fs.realpathSync.native. For a symlink leaf, it returns the target's basename. - The base acquireFileLock (base fileLock.ts lines 29-33) locked absoluteFilePath with no lockfilePath. So every writer to history.json used history.json.lock, whatever the link target. Triggering scenario: 1. history.json is a symlink to history-content.json. Writers A and B hold or queue on history-content.json.lock. 2. safeWriteJson line 149 renames a temp file over history.json. That replaces the link with a regular file. 3. Writer C arrives after the rename. canonicalLeafSpelling now returns history.json, so C takes history.json.lock. That artefact is free. 4. B and C both run the read-merge-write in safeWriteJson lines 122-133 on history.json. One merged update can be lost. The PR's own test encodes this split. src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.test.ts lines 2054-2057 assert ["history.json.lock", "history.json.next.lock"], and the comment says a second arrival is admitted beside the first holder. The base serialized these writers and the PR does not, so the regression is caused by this change. Limits on this finding: the trigger is narrow. It needs a symlinked persisted leaf whose basename differs from its target's, plus concurrent writers during the replacement. The four listed conditions in the check do not name lock serialization directly. I map the loss to the non-atomic read-merge-write on a persisted file. The verdict rests on that mapping.
Resolution
Keep the lock artefact name stable across a symlink-leaf replacement. Derive lockArtefactPath (src/utils/fileLock.ts lines 96-98) from the caller-supplied leaf spelling or from a stable identity, not from fs.realpathSync.native of the leaf (src/utils/lockLeafSpelling.ts line 20). Keep the directory-level and volume-level alias contention this PR adds. 2. Add a real-lock or cross-process regression test. Use a link whose basename differs from its target's. Start a waiting writer before the replacement, replace the link, then start a third writer after it. Run concurrent safeWriteJson merge writes from all three. Assert that no update is lost and that all three writers serialize on one artefact. 3. Change the retarget assertions at src/utils/tests/fileLock.test.ts lines 2052-2057. A writer that arrives after the replacement must contend with the queued writer. It must not get its own artefact.

Full details: Lifecycle Resource Cleanup
Explanation
The changed lock path at reviewed head 86119de leaks a renewal timer and leaves a lock artefact. The standing failure's claims hold at this head. Changed code. At base 5319fe91fb, acquireFileLock used path.resolve(filePath) as both the lock key and the artefact base. This PR separates the two: - src/utils/fileLock.ts:75-85 (canonicalLockKey) keys on the dev:ino of the nearest existing directory plus the caller's leaf string. It does not resolve the leaf. - src/utils/fileLock.ts:96-98 (lockArtefactPath) names the artefact canonicalLeafSpelling(absolutePath) + ".lock". - src/utils/lockLeafSpelling.ts:18-28 calls fs.realpathSync.native on the leaf. For a symlink, this returns the current referent's name. - src/utils/fileLock.ts:105-106 passes both values to lockfile.lock. Library behavior ([email protected]). - lockfile.js:243 assigns locks[file] = {...} with no ownership guard. A second acquisition under the same key replaces the first holder's record. - lockfile.js:282-286 makes unlock throw ENOTACQUIRED when locks[file] is missing. This happens before clearTimeout at line 288. - updateLock (lines 99-170) re-arms itself on the captured record. It returns only when that record's released flag is set. A replaced record never gets that flag, so its timer keeps running and keeps the artefact fresh. Triggering scenario. Writer A acquires through symlink L to history.json, so the artefact is history.json.lock. While A holds the lock, L is re-pointed to history.json.next. Writer B acquires through L. The key is unchanged, but B's artefact is history.json.next.lock. Lock acquisition uses mkdir on that artefact, so B is admitted. B's record replaces A's. If B releases first, A's release throws ENOTACQUIRED and A's renewal timer stays armed. Later acquisitions through the original name fail with ELOCKED. A dangling-link variant follows the same path when the target is created while the lock is held. At base, both callers shared one string for key and artefact. The second acquisition received ELOCKED from mkdir, so this path did not arise. The split is introduced by this PR. Test evidence at head.src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.test.ts:2009-2094 runs this replacement scenario through acquireFileLock. It accepts ENOTACQUIRED for the first release (line 2075), asserts ledger.outstanding() === 1 after both releases (line 2076), and calls ledger.cancelOutstanding() to clear the still-armed timer (line 2091). The test records the leak and does not prevent it. Commit context. The PR description names head 945b24d20ddc. That commit is an ancestor of the reviewed head, and the reviewed head is later. The reviewed head still has the key/artefact split (canonicalLockKey and lockArtefactPath). I assessed the reviewed range only. Prior failure disposition. The prior failure's claims still hold at the reviewed head. No commit in the range removes the split, guards the release path, or removes the cancelOutstanding() workaround.
Resolution
Derive the lock artefact from the same identity as the lock key. Either key on the resolved referent, or stop deriving the artefact from fs.realpathSync.native of a leaf that can change while held (src/utils/fileLock.ts:75-105, src/utils/lockLeafSpelling.ts:18-28). 2. Prevent a second in-process acquisition from overwriting a live lock record. Either refuse the acquisition, or check record ownership before release. A refused release must not leave the renewal timer armed. Clear or guard the timer on every release path. 3. Replace the assertions at src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.test.ts:2009-2094 that accept ENOTACQUIRED (line 2075) and outstanding() === 1 (line 2076). Remove the ledger.cancelOutstanding() workaround (line 2091). Add tests for both release orders after a symlink leaf replacement. Each test must assert that all artefacts are removed and that ledger.outstanding() is 0 without cancelOutstanding(). 4. Add a test for a dangling link whose target is created while the first lock is held.

acquireFileLock keyed proper-lockfile on path.resolve(filePath), so two callers that
name one file differently take two locks. On NTFS the spelling-preserving canonicalizers
cannot fix that: fs.realpath and fs.realpathSync return whatever spelling they are handed
and only fs.realpathSync.native expands an 8.3 alias, while stat answers both spellings
with the same dev+ino. canonicalLockPath therefore canonicalizes through the variant that
expands the alias, over the nearest existing directory when the file is not created yet,
so an alias and its long form arrive as one lock key. resolveLockKey computes the dev+ino
identity for consumers that compare locks by identity; it is module-private here because
this branch has no production caller yet, and the knip policy forbids a production export
whose only consumer is a test. The knip leg on this head is a merge-order artefact: the
chain that carries safeWriteText.ts calls resolveLockKey in production, so the export gains
its consumer when merge order puts the two files together.
The test asserts the shipped behaviour rather than a pure function: acquire under the alias
spelling, then attempt the same file under the long spelling, and require ELOCKED rather
than a second lock, with a test-side lock table standing in for proper-lockfile. The 8.3
case is gated on name generation probed with dir /x on a fresh long name (fsutil needs
elevation and fails with Error 5), not on the platform string, and it ran and passed here;
the linux unit leg does not execute it.
Reported on Zoo-Code-Org#2356. No suppression count changed.
Merge-order note, measured rather than assumed - and the honest reason this unit was cut against main instead of into a lane.
At PR 1914's head d2b65a5a2c75bfaf6d8a7edacb28544880813464 (fws/u5-guard-core), src/utils/fileLock.ts is 187 lines, blob 2ab8179b00cf, and it already declares canonicalLockPath, resolveLockKey and MAX_TOTAL_LINK_HOPS, with no statSync and no fs.realpathSync.native. That is the same blob I measured across fws/u5-guard-core, fws/u9a-task-history-delete, fws/u9b-provider-batch-delete and vps2f-1914-u5/u5a/u5b; 16 of the 92 refs in this series touch this file across at least three distinct blobs. This PR's src/utils/fileLock.ts is a different implementation on the same path.
Same two function names, different mechanisms: theirs walks link hops under a hop budget of 64, mine canonicalises through the one realpath variant that expands an NTFS 8.3 alias and keys off statdev+ino of the nearest existing directory. So the reconciliation is semantic, not textual - whichever of the two lands second has to be re-measured against the other (feed both spellings of one path and assert one lock, and re-run the negative controls) rather than rebased blindly.
Cutting against main and letting merge order carry it is also what keeps a fourth and fifth fileLock.ts from being written while 2350 is still deciding the staging primitive: 2350 owns that decision and 2356 is the contract it has to satisfy. No code, no review request, nothing resolved by this comment.

The runner named a file this PR does not touch. From run 42509800276, job 128820233870, step Run extension test lanes, the lane that failed is test:core:
All three failing rows are in src/core/task-persistence/__tests__/TaskHistoryStore.deleteSemantics.spec.ts, under TaskHistoryStore best-effort deletion semantics:
FAIL ... > delete preserves the canonical file if backup cleanup fails
FAIL ... > deleteMany preserves the canonical file if backup cleanup fails
FAIL ... > deleteMany() continues the batch after a failed unlink, evicts every entry, and writes through exactly once
(the rows are quoted with the spec path and describe block written once here for length; the describe block is TaskHistoryStore best-effort deletion semantics and the stack lines in the log point at 145:22 twice and 255:68 with 255:4.)
Ownership is a measurement, not an inference. At main 5319fe91fb0caf4aa4ec66aac68fa03744ebbc23 that spec is blob 875c7dcb9a7d (11,862 bytes) and src/core/task-persistence/TaskHistoryStore.ts is blob c1c50cca1e39. This PR's commit touches exactly two paths, src/utils/fileLock.ts and src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.test.ts, and git diff 5319fe91fb..945b24d20ddc contains no task-persistence path at all. In this run's windows job log the string fileLock appears 0 times and has no FAIL row, and the api lane - where src/utils/fileLock.ts is exercised - printed Test Files 114 passed (114).
The same bytes pass the same leg elsewhere, so this is run-specific rather than a property of the code. Those two blobs are byte-identical - 875c7dcb9a7d at 11,862 bytes and c1c50cca1e39 - not only at main and at this head 945b24d20ddc, but also at 7209a5f168 (PR 1914's head) and d4f3e9072e (PR 1930's head), because both of those heads contain current main. Both of those heads ran the same platform-unit-test (windows-latest) leg against those identical objects and each recorded completed/success on-head: 21 of 21 check runs on-head at 7209a5f168, 26 of 26 at d4f3e9072e. Same bytes, same runner class, opposite conclusions, about four hours apart. One caveat so nobody generalises wrongly: PR 1917's head carries a different spec blob - a512ceff883c at 78,701 bytes, because that branch predates the split - so a reader who checks three heads will see three different objects; only 1914 and 1930 are comparable here.
There is no baseline on main.GET /actions/runs?head_sha=5319fe91fb&event=push lists 4 runs (Publish Pre-release Extension, Label PR review state, and two CodeQL workflows, all completed/success) and none of them is the platform-unit-test lane, so main's own push at that sha never ran this leg and nobody may claim main is clean on it either.
The act that distinguishes a flake from runner-image drift is an admin rerun, and this token cannot fire it.POST /actions/runs/42509800276/rerun-failed-jobs answers 403 with Must have admin rights to Repository., and the run reads identical before and after the attempt (completed/failure, updated_at 2026-11-08T18:30:42Z). So: could a maintainer with admin rights on this repository rerun the failed jobs of run 42509800276? If it goes green, this was run-specific host behaviour; if the same three rows redden again, that is a reproducible platform-dependent failure in the history-store deletion spec, which belongs in its own issue rather than in a change to this PR. Nothing in this PR needs to change for this leg, and I am not proposing a skip or a rename of that spec.
Added after a measurement the branch owner asked for, because the ownership argument above was incomplete. The import graph reaches this PR's file even though the diff does not: at 5319fe91fb the failing spec is 11,862 bytes and imports withFileLock from ../../../utils/fileLock (that name appears 8 times in its body, fileLock 6 times, and line 26 mocks the module as { ...actual, withFileLock: vi.fn(actual.withFileLock) }, so the real module is loaded), and TaskHistoryStore.ts imports LOCK_STALE_MS from ../../utils/fileLock on its line 10. So the byte-identity of the spec and the impl proves those two files did not change; it does not prove the change to src/utils/fileLock.ts is not upstream of the failure. That part of the argument was weaker than it read, and it is corrected here rather than left standing.
Reproduction on a Windows box with the variable in hand. The spec takes its root from os.tmpdir() plus mkdtemp, and it has no win32 check, no process.platform check, no describe.skip, no it.skip and no skipIf (all zero occurrences), so TEMP is the controllable variable. An NTFS volume here generates 8.3 aliases for long component names - verified by listing the parent directory, not the directory itself: dir /x on the parent shows ALIASP~1 aliasprobe-…, MAIN-T~1 and HEAD-T~1. With TEMP/TMP set to a fresh directory under such a parent spelled in the short form (C:\work\Zoo-Code-fork\ALIASP~1\MAIN-T~1 and …\HEAD-T~1), and node -e confirming os.tmpdir() reports exactly that spelling:
main 5319fe91fb: Test Files 1 passed (1), Tests 10 passed (10).
this PR's head 945b24d20dd: Test Files 1 failed (1), Tests 3 failed | 7 passed (10), with Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'C:\work\Zoo-Code-fork\ALIASP~1\HEAD-T~1\task-history-delete-semantics-…' on two rows and an AssertionError on the third - the same three rows the hosted runner names.
So the reproduction lands on this PR: under an 8.3-spelled temporary root the identical spec passes on main and fails three rows on this head, which is the same failure shape as the runner's (a path whose user component is RUNNER~1). The mechanism to look at is the canonicalisation this PR adds to src/utils/fileLock.ts against the warning main already carries at its line 36 (realpath: false, with the comment that the file may not exist yet). A probe on this box puts the asymmetry precisely: fs.realpathSync.native of the short-spelled directory returns the long spelling (C:\work\Zoo-Code-fork\aliasprobe-…\main-tmpdir-root-for-delete-semantics-spec), plain fs.realpathSync of the same directory keeps the short spelling, the two stat results carry the same dev and ino, and the two spellings are not equal as strings. So a canonicaliser that calls the native variant rewrites the caller's spelling even though no symlink is involved and nothing about the file's identity changed.
Consequence. The line above that said this cannot come from this PR was not established; with the reproduction it is no longer a claim but a measured result, and it points at this PR's change. The 403 on rerun-failed-jobs and the no-baseline fact still stand, and the admin rerun is still worth firing for the hosted side - but the author-side repair is now mine to propose, and it will not be a skip or a rename of that spec. Second measurement: the reproduction run in both directions, and the four-way comparison the series needs. Same box, same spec, TEMP/TMP pointed at a fresh directory whose name has an 8.3 alias (alias presence verified from the PARENT with dir /x, which lists ALIASP~1, MAIN-T~1, HEAD-T~1), with node -e confirming os.tmpdir() reports the short spelling.

The swap was also run from the other side: this PR's tree carrying main's fileLock.ts gives Tests 10 passed (10), and main's tree carrying this PR's fileLock.ts gives Tests 3 failed | 7 passed (10). So the three rows travel with src/utils/fileLock.ts alone - that is a measurement, not an inference. The failing opens are …\task-history-delete-semantics-<random>\tasks\blocked-cleanup\history_item.json, spelled with the alias, and the third row is an AssertionError that the promise rejected with that ENOENT instead of resolving.
Two things I am not claiming. The split between the two reds and the green is not located to a line yet: what those four rows establish is that both reds hand the lock a spelling that differs from the caller's whenever an alias is present, while the green one canonicalises inside a link-following loop - whether that loop is the reason it stays green is inference from the code shape, not measurement. And my own instrumentation came back empty: console.error probes on canonicalLockPath (this PR) and on resolveFileLockPath (#1395) printed nothing in either red run while both runs stayed red, so the functions I instrumented are not the ones on the failing path, and the ENOENT is being produced elsewhere in what those changes restructured. I am reporting the null rather than quietly dropping it.
#1395 fails the same spec on the same hosted leg and its fileLock.ts contains no realpath call at all, so the trigger is not specific to the native variant: it is canonicalising a path whose component has an 8.3 alias while the caller keeps its own spelling. That is worth saying on that PR as well, and it is why I no longer treat this head's red as a runner-image question.
The 403 on rerun-failed-jobs and the no-baseline fact above still stand, and the admin rerun is still worth firing for the hosted side. The author-side repair is mine; it is a behavioural change to the lock machinery rather than a skip or a rename of that spec, and it goes to the maintainers with the mechanism before it lands. No commit was added to this branch and its head is unchanged at 945b24d20dd.
Mechanism, named rather than inferred (this is the part that was missing before: a code read of the delete path plus the aliased-root reproduction above, not an inference from shape).
The delete path is TaskHistoryStore.ts:285 (delete) and TaskHistoryStore.ts:315 (deleteMany), both calling deleteJsonFile(filePath) - that function lives in src/utils/jsonFileRecovery.ts:79. At jsonFileRecovery.ts:80 it calls withFileLock(filePath, async (absoluteFilePath) => ...), and everything it later removes is derived from the argument the callback receives: fs.readdir(path.dirname(absoluteFilePath)) at :83, the leftover names from getTempFilePrefix(absoluteFilePath, "new" | "bak") at :9-:17, and the unlink targets built from those names.
Main's withFileLock hands that callback path.resolve(filePath) (main fileLock.ts:75). My head handed it canonicalLockPath(filePath) (fileLock.ts:127 to :132), and under an 8.3-spelled temp root that returned the long spelling. So the strings the spec guards with - target === backup at TaskHistoryStore.deleteSemantics.spec.ts:139-140 and p === historyFilePath(...) at :245 - stopped matching what the store was unlinking, the injected EACCES never fired, the delete ran to completion, and the rows that assert the canonical file survives a failed backup cleanup read a file that had already been deleted. Two spellings named one file and compared unequal as JS strings: a divergence in the argument, not in the filesystem and not in the artefact.
What the fix does to that line (151406a5e, fileLock blob 912f739fa3e3):
canonicalLockKey at src/utils/fileLock.ts:66 builds the key from statIdentity (:30) of nearestExistingDirectory (:43): the device and inode of the nearest directory that actually exists, plus the components below it that do not exist yet. When not even an ancestor exists it returns the resolved path - a path with no existing ancestor has no identity to key on, and every caller computes that one resolved path alike. There is deliberately no stat-failure fallback to a canonicalised path, because that is what would split two writers holding two spellings of a not-yet-created file.
acquireFileLock at :89 and :93 passes that identity as the resource and sets lockfilePath to the caller's resolved path plus .lock (lockArtefactPath at :84, passed at :94), so the artefact keeps the location safeWriteJson and the interruption tests address it at - safeWriteJson.interruption.test.ts:209 ages the lock through its own targetPath plus .lock. proper-lockfile 4.1.2 takes the artefact from options.lockfilePath and only resolves the resource when realpath is on, which stays false at :98 for main's stated reason: the file may not exist yet.
withFileLock at :136 hands operationpath.resolve(filePath) at :141 - the caller's own spelling, never rewritten.
Which of the probe facts the fix stops depending on. The probe above established three things: fs.realpathSync.native expands the 8.3 spelling, plain fs.realpathSync and fs.promises.realpath keep it, and stat of the two spellings returns identical dev and ino. The module now makes no realpath call of any flavour - the only surviving line containing the word is the realpath: false option - so neither of the first two facts decides anything any more. What it does depend on is the third fact, the dev/ino equality, applied to the nearest existing ancestor. That is also why 1395's shape (a resolveFilePath with no realpath call at all) and this one land in the same place while my old head and 1395's did not: the failure was never the presence of a realpath call, it was the spelling handed to the callback.
Before and after, with both swap directions - interpreter C:\work\Zoo-Code-fork\.tmp-node22\node_modules\node\bin\node.exe (v22.23.4), core shard run from src, TEMP/TMP set to the 8.3 spelling of a long-named temp root:

so the outcome travels with the file in both directions.
Negative control. With only the callback argument re-diverged - withFileLock given statIdentity(path.resolve(p)) !== null ? fs.realpathSync.native(path.resolve(p)) : path.resolve(p), everything else as landed - the lock spec reports Tests 2 failed / 7 passed (9) and the two red rows are exactly one lock per file, not one lock per spelling > hands each caller back its own spelling rather than the canonicalised one and two spellings of one referent share one key > hands each spelling back to its own caller unchanged. Nothing else reddens, so the control fails for the alias/link reason and names the spelling that came back; it is not a timer. The second row uses a junction on Windows and a directory symlink on Linux, so the control is not Windows-only.
Gates on 151406a5e, same interpreter. Full unit shard: Tests 11 failed / 12342 passed / 37 skipped (12390), failing files MarketplaceManager.spec.ts, rules.spec.ts, parser.spec.ts - the identical three files and the identical 11 failures at 945b24d20dd with my change reverted (pre-existing on this box); the delta is +4 passing tests, which are the four new rows. Full core shard at 945b24d20dd with my change reverted: 196 passed (196), 4235 passed.

Hosted lint form eslint . --ext=ts --max-warnings=0 from src: exit 0, no output.

…spelling
The lock resource is the file's identity: the device and inode of the nearest directory
that exists, plus the components below it that do not exist yet. Two spellings of one
file - an 8.3 alias and its long form, a link and its target - arrive at the same
identity whether or not the leaf has been created, which is the case a canonical
spelling cannot serve: a path that does not exist yet has no canonical spelling, and
that is what realpath: false is there for.
No path is canonicalised any more. realpathSync.native is gone from the module, so
nothing in it depends on which of realpathSync, realpathSync.native and realpath
expands an 8.3 spelling. The artefact stays <file>.lock beside the file in the
caller's own spelling, which is where safeWriteJson and the interruption tests address
it, and callers get back the path they handed in, resolved rather than rewritten:
jsonFileRecovery's delete path derives its backup names and unlink targets from the
path withFileLock passes it, and under an aliased temp root a canonicalised spelling
stopped string-matching those targets, so the injected backup-cleanup failure never
fired and the canonical file was deleted anyway.
Measured on node 22.23.4: deleteSemantics under an aliased TEMP root 3 failed to 10
passed; the repaired file in main's tree 10 passed; the divergence reinserted in the
callback argument alone reddens exactly the two spelling rows and nothing else.

using the existing link fixture, rather than relying on the mocked lock table in
the “one lock per file, not one lock per spelling” suite. Verify that acquiring
through one spelling prevents acquisition through the other, so the test covers
lock artefact identity as well as canonical key equality.
- Around line 72-74: Update the “one lock per file, not one lock per spelling”

- Around line 93-94: Update the lock identity used by the lockfile.lock call and
its lockfilePath option so 8.3 and long-name aliases for the same file resolve
to one on-disk lock. Verify the alias resolution preserves the intended file
identity, and test contention through the real lock library to confirm both
callers cannot enter the critical section simultaneously.

The mocked suite keys its lock table on the string acquireFileLock hands the library and
never looks at lockfilePath, so a change that gave two spellings different on-disk
artefacts would have left it green. Delegate the mock to the real proper-lockfile for one
suite and assert, for a junction and for an 8.3 alias, that the two spellings resolve to
one artefact inode and that the second acquire rejects ELOCKED while the first holds it.
Placing the artefact by the caller's spelling reddens exactly those two rows and leaves the
key-equality rows green, which is the coverage the review asked for.
Create each suite's temporary root in beforeAll and remove it in afterAll: the roots were
made during collection and survived every run of the file, including runs where the alias
rows were skipped.

…tinct
fs.statSync hands back dev and ino as plain numbers unless BigInts are asked for, and
above 2^53 an inode stops being a distinct number: 17451448568457636 and
17451448568457637 are adjacent integers and one double. Stringifying that number for
the lock key therefore loses information silently and can key two neighbouring
directories alike. Read the identity with { bigint: true }, which is lossless, and
add a regression row whose statSync double answers plain stats with rounded numbers and
BigInts only when asked - a double that always returned BigInts would be green before
the fix.

…child in finally
Thread 4540025576 asked that the child process started by the sibling admission row wait for at least the full test timeout and be signalled and reaped in a finally block. The ceiling handed at line 1415 was 6000 ms while the row runs under the 30000 ms its wrapper declares, and the assertions ran before the release with no finally, so an assertion failure left the child holding until its ceiling and left the process unreaped. One const now feeds both the row timeout and the ceiling, and the assertion block ends in a finally that signals and awaits exit either way.
…that waits for it
Thread 4544685126 asked for parent-controlled retry signalling or a deadline aligned with the test timeout. The two waiting-writer rows handed the child retries 5 with the 250 ms default gap, so it gave up about 1.25 seconds after its first refusal while the parent is allowed 15000 ms for the barrier and 25000 ms for the held outcome inside a row timed at 60000 ms. Any stall past that 1.25 seconds made a correct lock redden the row. The attempt count now comes from one const set to 100 attempts at an explicit 250 ms gap, which is the 25000 ms the suite already polls for the outcome.

1. Keep the lock artefact name stable across leaf replacement. Derive it from
the caller-supplied leaf spelling, or from a stable identity. Do not derive it
from `fs.realpathSync.native` of the leaf. Revisit `lockArtefactPath` in
`src/utils/fileLock.ts` and `canonicalLeafSpelling` in
`src/utils/lockLeafSpelling.ts`. Keep alias contention for directory-level and
volume-level aliases. 2. Add a cross-process regression test in
`src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.test.ts`. Use a link whose basename differs from
its target's basename. Start a waiting writer before the replacement. Replace
the link. Start a third writer after the replacement. Run concurrent
`safeWriteJson` merge writes from all three. Assert that no update is lost and
that all writers serialize on one artefact. 3. Extend the existing retarget test
(lines 510-570) so a writer that arrives after the replacement contends with the
queued writer.
- Lifecycle Resource Cleanup:
1. Derive the artefact from the same identity as the lock key. Two acquisitions
that share a `proper-lockfile` key must use one artefact. Either key by the
resolved referent, or stop deriving the artefact from `fs.realpathSync.native`
of a leaf that can be re-pointed while held (`src/utils/fileLock.ts:75-98`,
`src/utils/lockLeafSpelling.ts`). 2. Prevent overwriting a live `locks[key]`
record. Either refuse a second in-process acquisition on the same key, or verify
record ownership before release. 3. Replace the assertions at
`src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.test.ts:1755-1830` that accept `ENOTACQUIRED` and
`outstanding() === 1`. Add tests for both release orders after a leaf
replacement. Each test must assert that all artefacts are removed and that
`ledger.outstanding()` is 0 without manual cancellation. 4. Keep the existing

Thread 4544685126 claims a child can still exhaust its retries before the parent
releases the lock. Measured at head 2464d70 the
parent is the holder in both waiting rows, acquiring at lines 1568 and 1602 and
releasing at lines 1586 and 1618, and the two barrier polls in between run to
15000 ms each at lines 1576, 1579, 1610 and 1614, so the ceiling on the hold is
their sum, 30000 ms. 100 attempts at 250 ms gave the child 25000 ms, 5000 ms short
of that ceiling, and 121 attempts give 30250 ms, 250 ms above it.
The comment now names the sum of the two barrier polls, which is the quantity that
binds the child. The identifier keeps the name of the sizing this replaces, and
that name is a residue rather than a description.
Nothing here is verification. No Stryker leg ran for this change, so no mutation
digest exists for it, and the hosted windows runner has never been read on this
machine. the mutation leg is unmeasured, a PASS over an empty digest is not
evidence in either direction, and CI at the first pushed unit is the only proof of
the gate.

1531-1531: The retry increase does not resolve the existing timing finding.
If the parent pauses while the child continues, the child can exhaust 121 retries before the parent releases the lock. The two polling timeouts do not bound that pause. Use parent-controlled cancellation with a bounded backstop, and retain failure cleanup for both resources.
This duplicates the existing waiting-writer finding; it is not a new issue.
The waiting rows in this block hold the lock in this process and launch a writer
that is refused until they let go, and every release and every reap in them sits
inline after an assertion, so an assertion that lands between the acquire and the
release leaves this process holding the lock and the writer it launched still
contending for it. That is the half of the reply on row 4544685126 that the
longer retry window does not answer: more attempts change how long a writer is
willing to wait, not what becomes of the lock and the child when a row stops
early.
Guard the failure path for the block those rows live in, in the shape the row
named for letting go of both locks and the renewal timer already uses there,
releasing only what has not been released yet and then awaiting the writer, which
is admitted the moment the artefact is gone and exits on its own.
Pin it with two rows, because a guard nobody has failed into is a shape and not a
result. The first forces the failure these rows can hit, an assertion that lands
while this process still holds the lock and the writer it launched is still
refused, and records that at that moment the artefact is still there and the
writer has no outcome line, which is the hole and not the fix. The second runs
after the guard and asserts what the guard left, namely no artefact, a writer
that was admitted, wrote, released and exited, and the same path acquirable
again. Without the guard the second row fails and the first passes; with it both
pass and the file suite carries 31 passed and 8 skipped of 39 where it carried 29
passed and 8 skipped of 37.
No production file changed, so the priced unit delta measured against the unit
base is unchanged, and the mutation leg for these commits is still unmeasured
locally.

Reap the child even if the parent release fails.
If heldRelease() rejects, afterEach stops before liveWaiter.waitForExit(). This can happen when the lock library fails to remove its artefact. The child then remains active while suite teardown removes its temporary root. Put child cleanup in a finally that runs even when release fails. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

…ease
The three rows in the coexistence block acquire a lock in this process and release
it inline, so an assertion that lands between the two leaves the lock held with its
renewal timer keeping the artefact fresh. That is what the finding on row 4555925401
says about the row that reaps its child in a finally and never releases the leaf,
and the same hole sits in the row beside it whose two releases follow its last
assertion and in the posix row whose two releases follow its own.
Guard the failure path for the block, in the shape the merge block guard took in the
previous commit: record what each row is holding, clear the record when the row lets
go, and in the afterEach release only what is still recorded, clearing before awaiting
so a release that lands late is never attempted twice and the row that failed still
reports its own assertion. The success paths did not move, and the diff is 81 added
lines with no removed line.
Pin it with two rows that need no alias and no symlink, so they are measured
wherever the block runs rather than only where short names are generated. The first
forces the failure the finding names, an assertion that lands while the leaf lock is
held and before any release line in the block, and records that the artefact is still
there at that instant, which is the hole and not the fix. The second runs after the
guard and asserts what the guard left, namely no artefact under this process and the
same path acquirable again by an immediate call. Measured by taking the guard away:
without it the file printed 1 failed, 32 passed and 8 skipped of 41 with the message
that an artefact list containing the leaf lock directory did not equal an empty list;
with it the file printed 33 passed and 8 skipped of 41 and the misc lane printed 2127
passed and 21 skipped of 2148 over 119 files where the commit before this one printed
2125 passed and 21 skipped of 2144. The prettier check, the type check and the lint
pass came back clean on both sides. No production file changed, so the priced unit
delta against the unit base is unchanged, and the mutation leg for these commits is
unmeasured locally.
…number
The comment that explains why the guard sits on the block named line 1518 of the file
as it stood before the guard was added, and adding that guard moved the thing it named
to line 1599 of the file as it now stands, so the comment would have pointed at a line
number that no longer names what it means. A marker carrying a moving coordinate is how
a reviewer comes back later and finds the pointer wrong, which is the same shape of
mistake the finding on row 4555925401 makes about commit 36ad681, so the comment
names the commit instead. The guard body is untouched, the diff is one comment line
replaced by two comment lines with no line of the hook changed, and no executable file
changed, so the priced unit delta against the unit base is unchanged and the mutation
leg for these commits remains unmeasured locally.
The prettier check, the type check, the lint pass over the sources, the lint pass on
this file alone, the focused run on this file and the misc lane all came back as they
did at the parent commit, and those six legs were run again on this side rather than
carried from it.

The guard of 30b2bc8 releases the records of the coexist block one after
another, and a refusal out of the first await ended the hook, so a lock recorded
after the refused one was not given back in that invocation. The review pass at
the pushed head found it at line 1335, put it under Stability and Availability
with the Quick win marker, and named the consequence as a renewal timer that can
stay active after the temporary root goes away, row 4556707288.
Each release now sits inside its own try, so every record is attempted, and a
refusal is recorded rather than thrown. The timer rows of this file already state
that a throw out of a cleanup release replaces whatever the row itself failed at
and leaves the runner printing only the release frame, and withFileLock at lines
152 to 171 of src/utils/fileLock.ts reports a release failure as secondary while
rethrowing the failure that was primary, so recording the refusal and letting the
row after it assert on it is the shape this file already uses rather than a new
one. Each record is still cleared before its release is awaited, so a release that
lands late is never attempted twice, and only the first refusal is kept, which is
what the assertion beside it reads.
Two rows pin it. The row at line 1594 holds a leaf lock and a sibling lock, lets
go of the leaf before returning so that the guard attempt meets the release of a
lock whose in-process record is already gone, and leaves both records set. The row
at line 1615 runs after the guard, where a guard can be asserted at all, and
asserts that the refusal was recorded, that it carries the code the library uses
for that refusal, which the run of this file on windows printed as ERELEASED, and
that the sibling artefact is gone because its release was attempted anyway.
Measured with the attempt all guard removed and the same two rows, file suite on
the misc config: 2 failed, 33 passed, 8 skipped of 43, exit 1. The refusal row
fails with Error: Lock is already released raised at lib/lockfile.js:257:60 and
surfacing at the leaf await inside the hook, and the row after it fails with
expected null to be an instance of Error, because nothing was recorded and the
sibling release never ran. Measured with it in place: 35 passed, 8 skipped of 43,
exit 0. The misc lane prints 2129 passed and 21 skipped of 2150 with the change
and 2127 passed and 21 skipped of 2148 without it. Prettier, tsc on the src
project, and eslint with prune over the whole src and on this file alone exit 0 on
both sides, and src/eslint-suppressions.json is not in this commit.
This answers a refusal at one release abandoning the releases that follow it. It
does not answer the ceiling handed to a child that has to wait for this process,
which stays open on row 4544685126, and it does not measure the renewal interval
itself. The mutation leg is unmeasured, a PASS over an empty digest is not
evidence in either direction, and CI at the first pushed unit is the only proof
of the gate.

- Line 1630: Update the duplicate-release assertion in the test that calls
giveLeaf twice to accept only ERELEASED; do not allow ENOTACQUIRED as an
alternative.
---
Failed pre-merge checks:
- Persistence Integrity:
1. Keep the lock artefact name stable across symlink-leaf replacement. Derive
`lockArtefactPath` (`src/utils/fileLock.ts` lines 96-98) from the
caller-supplied leaf spelling or from a stable identity. Do not derive it from
`fs.realpathSync.native` of the leaf (`src/utils/lockLeafSpelling.ts` line 20).
Keep the directory-level and volume-level alias contention this PR adds. 2. Add
a real-lock or cross-process regression test. Use a link whose basename differs
from its target's. Start a waiting writer before replacement, replace the link,
then start a third writer after replacement. Run concurrent `safeWriteJson`
merge writes from all three. Assert that no update is lost and that all writers
serialize on one artefact. 3. Change the retarget assertion at
`src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.test.ts` lines 2049-2052. A writer that arrives
after replacement must contend with the queued writer. It must not get its own
artefact.
- Lifecycle Resource Cleanup:
1. Derive the lock artefact from the same identity as the lock key. Either key
by the resolved referent, or stop deriving the artefact from
fs.realpathSync.native of a leaf that can be re-pointed while held
(src/utils/fileLock.ts:75-105 and src/utils/lockLeafSpelling.ts:18-28). 2.
Prevent a second in-process acquisition from overwriting a live locks[key]
record (proper-lockfile lib/lockfile.js:243). Either refuse it, or verify record
ownership before release. A failed release must not leave the renewal timer
armed. 3. Replace the assertions in
src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.test.ts:2004-2086 that accept ENOTACQUIRED (line
2070) and outstanding() === 1 (line 2071). Remove the manual
ledger.cancelOutstanding() workaround (line 2086). Add tests for both release
orders after a symlink leaf replacement. Each test must assert that all
artefacts are removed and that ledger.outstanding() is 0 without
cancelOutstanding(). 4. Add a case where the second acquisition happens after
the replacement while the first lock is held.

The finding at src/utils/__tests__/Task row for the cleanup refusal objects to admitting two
codes for one refusal, and the library settles it. proper-lockfile 4.1.2 answers a second call
to the release function returned by lock before it touches the filesystem: lib/lockfile.js line
255 tests the released flag on the lock record the closure captured and line 257 rejects Lock
is already released with code ERELEASED. Its other release refusal, ENOTACQUIRED at line 285 of
the same file, is raised when the canonical path has no entry in the in-process locks map, so
it means the key is not acquired or owned by this process at all. The guard attempt in this row
is a second call to a release function this process did receive, so only ERELEASED can answer
it, and admitting ENOTACQUIRED as an alternative lets a guard that released a record it never
owned pass while the sibling still came back.
The assertion now names ERELEASED alone. The row keeps 35 passed and 8 skipped of 43 in this
file and the misc lane keeps 2,129 passed and 21 skipped of 2,150, identical to the head before
this commit.
The pin was proved by taking it away over an injected subject. With the guard catch for the leaf
recorded as the same error object the library builds at lib/lockfile.js line 285, message and code included,
the pinned row fails: an unrelated lock and a held leaf coexist while the alias contends keeps
the refusal visible and gives the sibling back anyway reports AssertionError: expected
"ENOTACQUIRED" to be "ERELEASED", 1 failed 34 passed 8 skipped of 43, exit 1. Over that same
injection the two code version the finding objects to passes at 35 passed 8 skipped of 43, exit
0, which is the blindness the finding named.
Gates over the tree with this change: prettier over the tree exit 0, root typecheck exit 0 with
0 errors, eslint over src with prune exit 0 with suppression entries unchanged at 265 files and
2,868 rows and this file still carrying 0 of them, and the prune writer reindent churn of 1,326
lines against 1,326 was restored before staging so it is not in this commit.
a green local preflight over Valid 0, Killed 0, Survived 0 and No coverage 0 with blocking 0 and
advisories 2 is not evidence in either direction on this machine.

Part of the 2356 contract: the advisory lock in
src/utils/fileLock.tskeyedproper-lockfileonpath.resolve(filePath), so two callers that name one file differently take two locks.Measured before writing it (
.tmp-cr-audit/short-name-probe.mjs, pinned node v22.23.4, un-elevated):statgives one identity for both spellings of a path -dev:ino 673102249:17451448568457636for the 8.3 alias and the long form of the same directory - whilefs.realpathandfs.realpathSyncreturn whatever spelling they are handed and onlyfs.realpathSync.nativeexpands the alias. So canonicalizing by realpath text cannot produce a spelling-independent key, and identity is the only thing the probe shows both spellings share. Full measurement is in #2356 (comment);2350still owns which staging primitive survives, and this PR touches none of that.What changed (
src/utils/fileLock.ts+80/-2,src/utils/__tests__/fileLock.test.ts+96/-1):resolveLockKeyreturnsdev:inofor a path that exists; for one that does not, the identity of the nearest existing directory plus the lowercased remainder. A basename with no inode yet is the residual case no identity can unify, and the function says so rather than pretending otherwise.canonicalLockPathgives the spelling a lock artefact is created under, viafs.realpathSync.nativeon the existing part - the one canonicalizer that actually unifies the spellings - so an alias and its long form take one lock.proper-lockfileis still called withrealpath: false, because the file may not exist yet.Gating, disclosed rather than smoothed. The 8.3 case is gated on the property, not on the platform string: it runs
dir /xagainst a freshly created long directory name and reports a skip with a reason where 8.3 generation is disabled, becausefsutil 8dot3name query C:fails un-elevated (Error 5) and a Windows runner on a volume with generation off would otherwise produce a green that cannot fail. Locally the gate was open and the case executed and passed (A-REAL~1generated for a 47-character name on this volume). The linux unit leg does not execute this case.Verification. Focused spec

CI on a clean install is the authoritative tsc for this branch.Merge-order contention, measured rather than assumed: 16 refs in this series already modify

This PR deliberately goes against main rather than reaching into those branches, so merge order carries the reconciliation.Amended twice after the first head
ff93f8077b19; the figures below are for945b24d20ddc. The first head exported aresolveLockKeykey function that no code on this branch called, and the knip leg named exactly that:resolveLockKey function src/utils/fileLock.ts:67:17underUnused exports (1)(hosted annotations are empty,count 0, so the job log is the only evidence and an empty annotation set is not a clean run). Making it module-private did not clear it: the repo's ownno-unused-varsrule then reported'resolveLockKey' is defined but never usedat 67:10 - the same verdict from the other gate. So this head publishes no key function and keeps onlycanonicalLockPath, whichacquireFileLockandwithFileLockcall in production; the dev+ino key derivation belongs to the write path that consumes it, and the chain carryingsafeWriteText.tsalready callsresolveLockKeyin production. The knip leg on this head is a merge-order artefact, not a defect left in this unit.Local knip does not reproduce the hosted finding, and the local failure is pre-existing.
pnpm test:knip-policyexits 1 on this box on a different subtest -visual entries cannot hide helpers unused by the production application- whose assertion payload is{"files":[],"issues":[{"file":"webview-ui/package.json",..."devDependencies":[{"name":"vite"}],"binaries":[{"name":"vite"}]...}]}: an empty source set with nofileLock.tsentry. It fails the same way on the pinned v22.23.4 (tests 8 / fail 1) and it fails the same way at pristine5319fe91fbin this same worktree, so the local red is about the box and the workspace, not about this diff. Under the system node it additionally warnsUnsupported engine: wanted {"node":"22.23.4"}. The hosted job log therefore remains the only evidence for the original finding.Figures for this head (main-tip selector

ELOCKEDrather than a second lock, with the lock table standing in forproper-lockfilesaid in the test's own comment; plus two companion cases (two files in one directory take two locks; one not-yet-existing path takes one lock while a different name takes another). Focused spec on pinned v22.23.4:Tests 5 passed (5). Negative control at the new layer -canonicalLockPathcanonicalising by the resolved spelling instead offs.realpathSync.native- gives1 failed | 4 passed, failing on the contention assertion; a key-by-spelling control is inert on this head because the key function is no longer here, which is stated rather than reported as a passing control.eslint --prune-suppressions --max-warnings=0exit 0 on both files,prettier --checkclean.
