fix(commands): prevent code execution in command frontmatter - #2420
Prevent command frontmatter from selecting executable parsing engines during lookup and discovery. Allow default YAML, explicit YAML/YML, and JSON metadata. Keep unsupported frontmatter as plain command text.
Add regression tests for executable language variants, leading BOM handling, and accepted metadata formats through both entry points. This supports reliability and safe command loading.
Validation: Tests were not run during this inspection.

Summary
Summary by CodeRabbit
Bug Fixes
Command files with JavaScript-like or Python frontmatter labels are now treated as text rather than parsed as metadata, including when the file begins with a byte-order mark.
Empty, YAML, YML, and JSON frontmatter continues to provide command descriptions, argument hints, and mode settings.
The command frontmatter parser now checks detected languages before parsing. Command lookup and directory scanning use this parser, and tests cover supported and unsupported labels.
Changes: Command Frontmatter Parsing
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Frontmatter language guard src/services/command/commands.ts
A private helper strips a leading BOM for frontmatter detection, rejects detected languages other than YAML, YML, or JSON, and parses accepted content with gray-matter.
Loader integration and validation src/services/command/commands.ts, src/services/command/__tests__/frontmatter-commands.spec.ts
Command lookup and directory scanning use the helper. Tests verify that unsupported labels remain text without metadata and that accepted labels load metadata and body content.
The frontmatter guard covers both command-loading paths, with no actionable merge-blocking risk established. Run the normal tests before merging.

Full details: Security Boundaries
Explanation
No changed path introduces a security-boundary failure. src/services/command/commands.ts now checks the frontmatter language before parsing in both command-loading paths. Rejected frontmatter is returned as command text.
Full details: Persistence Integrity
Explanation
The PR changes command frontmatter parsing and its tests. Both changed loading paths read files and return command data; they do not write persisted state. No changed persistence path meets the failure criteria.
Full details: Regression Evidence
Explanation
The new rejection tests cover executable frontmatter only with a BOM. The normal non-BOM input can regress independently in the new detection path. Both lookup and discovery lack a focused test for it (frontmatter-commands.spec.ts:35-46, commands.ts:14-23).
Resolution
Add non-BOM executable frontmatter tests for lookup and discovery. Verify that the expression does not execute, the full text remains, and metadata stays unset.

Resolve a mutation gap
Add or strengthen a focused test that fails under the mutation. If the mutant is equivalent, request maintainer approval for the narrowest mutator-specific exclusion and explain why it cannot change behavior:
// Stryker disable next-line ConditionalExpression: normalized input cannot reach the alternate branch
const result = condition ? value : fallback
Broad all exclusions and exclusions without a concrete reason are reported as advisories.

This PR was opened by an automated account. A human maintainer must verify the change intent, provenance, and validation before merging.
Current step: The required review sequence passed. Remaining merge requirements apply.
Review-state labels are managed by this workflow; do not edit them manually. community-approved is managed the same way — do not add or remove it manually. It signals a fresh community code approval for the current head as an advisory priority only; maintainer review is still required.
