Summary

• Fix the test home guard's protected-tree containment check ([Bug]: test home guard treats '..name' children of protected trees as outside them #7853): isInside() decided containment with a string-prefix .. test, so a child of a protected tree whose name begins with two dots (e.g. ~/.opencodex/..backup, relative path ..backup) was judged OUTSIDE the tree and protectedRemovalReason() did not refuse its removal. The check now treats only a leading .. path component as leaving the root, matching the sibling isSameOrInsideIgnoringPlatformCase() used for the Claude trees. This changes the guard's verdict for ..-prefixed names on every platform — that is the point of the fix.
• Fold platform case on the guard's DENY side only (new samePathOnPlatform() for equality, isInsideIgnoringPlatformCase() for removal-tree containment/ancestry), so a not-yet-existing case variant such as .OPENCODEX no longer slips past the OpenCodex home, Codex home, LaunchAgents, and removal-tree comparisons on macOS and Windows. This follows the guard's existing conservative OS-level policy (the Claude-tree checks already fold on darwin/win32 by platform, not by probing actual filesystem identity). On a case-sensitive volume the deny side can over-refuse, which the guard's design accepts — refusing too broadly is its safe direction. On Linux the fold is the identity function, so the case-folding change is a no-op there; the only Linux behavior change is the ..-prefixed-name verdict above.
• The own-checkout content exemption (isOwnCheckoutContent()) deliberately keeps the exact, case-sensitive isInside(): a folded ALLOW would call a distinct same-letters-different-case sibling (e.g. .opencodex/CHECKOUT next to .opencodex/checkout) checkout content on a case-sensitive volume, turning a refusal into permission.
• Update structure/ops/test-sandbox-cleanup.md to state the removal-tree comparison semantics, including the exact-match exemption.

Verification

• bun test tests/ci-workflows/test-home-guard.test.ts — 29 pass, 0 fail, 0 skip (Bun 1.4.4, Linux x86_64). Includes the three new regression cases below.
• New regression cases, each with red/green provenance:
  • ..backup containment (in-process): fails on base (judged outside, removal not refused), passes on head. Runs on every platform.
  • Case-variant refusals (probe mocks process.platform as darwin before the guard module loads; covers removal equality + containment, all three write guards, isProtectedHomeUnderTest, plus controls): fails on base, passes on head. The platform mock exercises the comparison logic on any host — it is not a real macOS or Windows filesystem run.
  • Case-distinct checkout sibling (probe imports a copy of the guard from inside a synthetic protected home, so the running checkout genuinely sits inside the tree; mocked darwin): with the exemption also folded this ALLOWED removal of the distinct sibling — the case the regression guards — and passes on head with the exemption exact; the own-checkout positive control stays allowed throughout. This case needs two same-letters-different-case directories to coexist, so it runs only where the host volume is actually case-sensitive (probed with controlled sentinels in a temp dir); on a case-insensitive volume the fold makes the two names one directory, the exemption legitimately applies, and the test skips.
• bun test tests/ci-workflows/test-home-guard-unpreloaded.test.ts tests/claude-integration/claude-config-home-isolation.test.ts — 13 pass.
• bun run typecheck — no type errors in 2,202 files.
• bun run structure:check — passed.
• Not run: full bun run test (the suite is too costly for this focused guard change; the focused suites above cover the changed module and its direct consumers). No real macOS or Windows run was performed; the case-fold paths are verified through the mocked-platform probes above.

Checklist

• Scope stays focused and avoids unrelated cleanup.
• Docs or release notes were updated when needed.
• Security-sensitive changes were reviewed for secrets, auth, and unsafe defaults.

Review readiness checklist

This PR stays in draft until every box below is ticked. Tick all four boxes once the requirements are met:

• Required local validation passed; commands, results, and any full-suite exception are documented.

• I pushed my PR to a recent dev commit (at most 10 behind; a maintainer may still ask for the exact tip before merge).

• I resolved all correct Codex and CodeRabbit findings.

• My PR is ready for review.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Improved protected-path checks on macOS and Windows so paths differing only in letter case are handled consistently.
  • Corrected checks for names beginning with .., allowing valid protected-tree paths while continuing to reject paths that resolve outside the protected area.
  • Kept checkout-content exceptions case-sensitive, so similarly named sibling checkouts are not treated as the active checkout.

Walkthrough

The path guard now uses platform-aware case folding for protected-path equality, containment, and ancestry checks. Containment treats only a leading .. component as leaving a protected tree. The running-checkout content exemption remains case-sensitive.

Changes: Protected path rules

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Platform-aware path equality src/lib/test-home-guard.ts	Protected-home and write-guard equality checks now fold case on macOS and Windows. Comparisons remain case-sensitive on other platforms.
Protected-tree containment and removal src/lib/test-home-guard.ts, tests/ci-workflows/test-home-guard.test.ts, structure/ops/test-sandbox-cleanup.md	Containment treats ..backup as a child and recognizes a path as outside only when its relative path is .. or starts with .. followed by a separator. Protected-tree removal checks use platform-aware case folding. Tests cover case variants and confirm that the checkout-content exemption remains case-sensitive. Documentation describes these rules.

Priority: Normal

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Change: Bug fix

If the sysroot is elsewhere, set `WINDOWS_SYSROOT=&lt;path&gt;` or pass `--winsysroot=&lt;path&gt;`.

To build WebKit locally (optional, x64 only), install these packages:
    
    scoop install make cygwin python

ARM64 builds do not need Cygwin because WebKit is provided as a pre-built binary.

From here on out, use a PowerShell terminal with `.\scripts\vs-shell.ps1` sourced. Load the script by running it:
    
    .\scripts\vs-shell.ps1

To verify, check for an MSVC-only command such as `mt.exe`:
    
    Get-Command mt

Avoid installing `ninja` / `cmake` into your global path: you may end up building Bun without `.\scripts\vs-shell.ps1` sourced.

## Building
    
    bun run build

A successful build writes `bun-debug.exe` to the `build/debug` folder.
    
    .\build\debug\bun-debug.exe --revision

Add this folder to `$Env:PATH`: open the Start menu, type &quot;Path&quot;, and use the environment variables menu to add `C:\.....\bun\build\debug` to the user environment variable `PATH`. Then restart your editor (if it still does not pick up the change, log out and log back in).

## Extra paths

  * The build extracts WebKit to `$Env:BUN_INSTALL\build-cache\webkit-&lt;version&gt;-debug` (`webkit-&lt;version&gt;-arm64-debug` on ARM64); `BUN_INSTALL` defaults to `~\.bun`. </excerpt>

Issue body actions

### What version of Bun is running?

1.3.14+0d9b296af

### What platform is your computer?

Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.26200.0 x64

### What steps can reproduce the bug?

`path.win32.normalize` and `path.win32.join` skip two guards that Node applies, so a relative path that would come back looking like a drive or a DOS device is returned as-is instead of being prefixed with `.\`.

In Node&#39;s `lib/path.js`, `win32.normalize` returns ``.\\${tail}`` when the input is relative, no device was resolved, and the tail would otherwise start with a drive specifier or contain a colon at the end of a segment. The comment above that branch cites CVE-2024-36139. Separately, `win32.join` skips normalization entirely when any part is a reserved DOS name, which leaves `..` uncollapsed on purpose.

Keep the checkout exemption case-sensitive on Windows.

Bun 1.4.4 compares Windows paths case-insensitively in node:path.relative. On a case-sensitive Windows directory, content under CHECKOUT can therefore satisfy the exemption for the running checkout at checkout and bypass the removal refusal.

Use exact-case path-component containment for isOwnCheckoutContent, and add a Windows regression for a case-distinct checkout sibling.

Suggested fix

 /** Whether `child` sits strictly below `parent`, both already canonicalized. */
 function isInside(parent: string, child: string): boolean {
   const rel = relative(parent, child);
   // Only a leading ".." COMPONENT leaves the root: a child named "..backup" is inside it.
   return rel !== "" && !isAbsolute(rel) && rel !== ".." && !rel.startsWith(`..${sep}`);
 }
 
+/** Whether `child` is strictly below `parent` with path components preserved in exact case. */
+function isInsideWithExactCase(parent: string, child: string): boolean {
+  const normalizedParent = resolve(parent);
+  const normalizedChild = resolve(child);
+  if (normalizedParent === normalizedChild) return false;
+  const prefix = normalizedParent.endsWith(sep) ? normalizedParent : `${normalizedParent}${sep}`;
+  return normalizedChild.startsWith(prefix);
+}
+
 /**
  * Whether `candidate` is repository content of a checkout that itself lives inside `protectedPath`.
@@
 function isOwnCheckoutContent(protectedPath: string, candidate: string): boolean {
-  return checkoutRoots().some(root => isInside(protectedPath, root) && isInside(root, candidate));
+  return checkoutRoots().some(
+    root => isInsideWithExactCase(protectedPath, root) && isInsideWithExactCase(root, candidate),
+  );
 }

Update isOwnCheckoutContent to use exact-case path-component containment rather
than the case-insensitive Windows behavior of isInside, preserving strict
descendant checks and component boundaries; add a Windows regression proving a
case-distinct checkout sibling does not receive the checkout-content exemption.

Thank you, @lee3Q. The same component-aware protected-tree check landed on dev through #7884 (squash 463a0ee), which credits you with a Co-authored-by trailer because this PR reached the fix independently. Closing this one as a duplicate.
