Summary

  • replace driver-owned opaque runtimeKey() strings with declarative runtime residency and authority policy
  • make the runtime pool compute isolation keys from provider instance, scope, workspace/agent, and permission boundary
  • add a provider registry so driver selection is registration-based instead of a provider switch
  • preserve current Codex/OpenCode sharing, Pi per-agent residency, Claude full-access isolation, and ACP workspace/write-mode isolation

Validation

  • pnpm typecheck
  • pnpm test (149 passed, 1 skipped)
  • pnpm build

Stacked on #380.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Improvements
    • Local agent runtimes now share or remain isolated according to provider, workspace, agent, and access-mode boundaries.
    • Runtime and session idle timeouts follow each agent’s configured policy.
    • Local agent providers use a consistent setup process across supported providers.

Walkthrough

Local-agent drivers now declare runtime policies for pool scope, authority, and idle timeouts. The runtime pool derives keys and timeout values from those policies. Driver construction now uses a provider registry.

Changes

Runtime policy and pool behavior

Layer / File(s) Summary
Runtime policy contract and pool identity
src/local-agent-runtime.ts, src/local-agent-runtime-pool.ts, src/local-agent-runtime.test.ts, src/local-agent-manager.test.ts
LocalAgentDriver now requires runtimePolicy instead of runtimeKey and idleTimeoutMs. The pool derives runtime keys from provider instance, policy scope, and applicable workspace, agent, or authority values. Runtime and session idle timeouts use policy values when set, with existing defaults as fallbacks. Tests cover the keying rules and updated driver fixtures.
Driver runtime policies
src/local-agent-acp.ts, src/local-agent-claude.ts, src/local-agent-codex.ts, src/local-agent-opencode.ts, src/local-agent-pi.ts, src/local-agent-claude.test.ts, src/local-agent-adapters.test.ts
The drivers replace standalone timeout and runtime-key declarations with policies. ACP uses workspace scope and write_mode authority; Claude uses agent scope and full_access_boundary; Codex and OpenCode use instance scope; Pi uses agent scope. Existing timeout values are retained. Tests assert the updated policy declarations.
Provider registry construction
src/local-agent-provider-registry.ts, src/local-agent-adapters.ts
The new registry registers factories, rejects duplicate or missing driver kinds, provides environment inputs, and wraps created drivers. createLocalAgentDrivers now registers Codex, Claude, OpenCode, Pi, Cursor, Copilot, and Grok factories and delegates instance creation to the registry.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 8a73f

The workspace ownership issue remains worth fixing, but it predates this change. No new merge-blocking risk is established.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 8a73f

Existing execution paths preserve provider separation and permission controls. The change nevertheless makes isolation depend on a common policy and correctly aligned provider identities. Broader integration coverage remains limited; no introduced security vulnerability was established.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — An isolation error here could affect provider credentials and local execution across agents sharing an instance-scoped runtime. Full-access execution already permits broader local authority. In the traced path, configured provider IDs, residency scope, and permission partitions bound reuse; deployment-wide or tenant-wide exposure is not established.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Permission enforcement remains provider-specific rather than being replaced by pooling policy. Claude reapplies permission settings before submitting a prompt, Codex supplies sandbox policy per turn, and OpenCode selects permission-specific agents. ACP's policy separately partitions runtime reuse by write mode.
  • observed — The new key takes provider identity from request context rather than the selected driver's configured identity. The manager keeps these aligned, but the public pool does not validate equality. A mismatched direct caller is an integration-contract gap, not a demonstrated attacker-controlled path in the inspected execution flow.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Centralized key derivation makes provider policy declarations security-relevant: a future driver must distinguish creation-time authority from per-run authority and choose residency accordingly. The current built-in policies preserve the inspected boundaries, but the type contract alone cannot prove a new driver's declaration matches its enforcement behavior.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Consider deriving pool identity from the selected driver's configured instance ID, or rejecting driver/context identity mismatches before lookup. This would enforce the alignment currently supplied by the manager without treating hypothetical direct misuse as a verified vulnerability.

I’m a rabbit with a policy scroll,
I hop through scopes to find each pool.
Workspace, agent, instance align,
Timeout rules now sit in line.
Seven drivers join the registry row,
And off through tidy runtimes I go!

[High risk] Refactors runtime pooling and driver registration for subagents.

No blocking issue was found; the reviewed changes appear safe to merge.

What we checked:

  • Ran a configured two-instance Claude flow through driver construction, the manager, and the runtime pool using a local fake, with environments and runtimes kept separate per instance while reusing a runtime for a later turn on the same agent. T-Rex
  • Ran the Claude and ACP drivers through the runtime pool with fake provider runtimes, and verified creation and reuse across authority modes, agents, and workspaces; the parent and PR versions produced matching results, with Claude separating full-access from restricted runtimes and ACP separating runtimes by workspace and write mode. T-Rex
  • Investigated the changed code paths in src/local-agent-provider-registry.ts and related runtime-pool logic to confirm per-instance environments and no cross-instance sharing. T-Rex
  • Validated that the updated key logic in src/local-agent-runtime-pool.ts produced the same create/reuse counts as prior behavior, with ACP granting separate runtimes per write mode and workspace and Claude isolating full-access versus restricted modes. T-Rex

Summary

This PR replaces driver-specific runtime keys with pool-computed keys and selects drivers through a provider registry. Checks of configured provider instances and Claude and ACP runtime boundaries found no actionable regression.

Key ACP runtimes by workspace identity.

Distinct open_workspace IDs can refer to the same root. ACP’s workspace key uses that root, so those IDs can share a runtime and its session tracking. This violates the workspace ownership contract. The removed ACP key also used the resolved root, so this PR preserves the collision rather than introducing it. Pass the stored workspaceId into the runtime context. For requests without an ID, isolate by agent ID instead of falling back to the root.

Update workspace runtime key construction in the workspace case to use the
stored workspaceId rather than workspaceRoot, falling back to agentId when no
workspace ID is available. Add workspaceId to LocalAgentRuntimeContext and pass
