Enforce shfmt and Broaden Shell-Script Discovery in the Lint Gate - #951
Merged
Conversation
Prerequisite for enabling shfmt enforcement fleet-wide: the tool has never run against this repo before, and broadening shell-script discovery to catch an extensionless shebang script (next commit) surfaces both an existing shellcheck finding and every shfmt diff at once, so both are fixed here first. - catalog/snippets/husky/pre-commit: add the same `shellcheck disable=SC1091` other host scripts already carry for a source target that only exists after Husky installs it, an extensionless shebang script the broadened discovery now reaches. - host-setup/agent-safety/install.sh, host-setup/bootstrap.sh, host-setup/linux/install-skills.sh, host-setup/linux/install-tools.sh, host-setup/linux/setup-github.sh, host-setup/linux/upgrade-host.sh, repo-config/configure.sh, scripts/skills_install.sh: run through `shfmt -w` at this repo's own .editorconfig indent (4 spaces). Purely mechanical: whitespace and statement-layout only, no logic changed. Verified with `bash -n` on every file and the full `scripts/tests/` suite (790 tests, unchanged pass count).
Fixes #950. ## The gap `validate-task.yml`'s shell step ran shellcheck only, and both it and `docker_lint.py`'s `shellcheck` linter discovered targets from a bare `*.sh` glob. CODESTYLE.md's Shell section and the `shell-codestyle` Skill never named shfmt at all, so nothing documented or enforced the formatter half of the shell clean-compile, and a tracked script meant to run as a bare command (no extension, shebang only) was invisible to both the glob and, before this change, to shfmt. ## The fix - `.github/workflows/validate-task.yml`: the shell step now also runs `mvdan/shfmt:latest -d`, and its target list is the `*.sh` glob plus every tracked, extensionless file whose shebang names bash or sh. - `scripts/docker_lint.py`: added a `shfmt` linter entry (shares the shellcheck image's target-discovery shape) and a `discover_shebang` field on `Linter` that both shellcheck and shfmt set, backed by a new `extensionless_shell_scripts()`/`has_shell_shebang()` pair so the local wrapper matches CI exactly. Tests added in `scripts/tests/test_docker_lint.py`. - `.agents/skills/shell-codestyle/SKILL.md` (regenerated into `.github/skills/` and `.claude-plugin/` via `build_dist.py`), `CODESTYLE.md`, `GOVERNANCE.md`, and the two `host-setup/*/README.md` files: document the shellcheck-plus-shfmt clean-compile and the broadened discovery. ## Verified Full doc-lint set (`markdownlint`, `cspell`, `actionlint`, `editorconfig-checker`), `shellcheck`, `shfmt`, and `PSScriptAnalyzer` all pass clean via `scripts/docker_lint.py` with no `--linter` filter. `scripts/repo_gate.py`, `scripts/prose_lint.py --diff origin/develop`, and the full `scripts/tests/` suite (790 tests) all pass. Confirmed the extensionless-script gap directly: reproduced Blog's `ops/vps-backup-pull` shape in a scratch repo, showed `docker_lint.py` missed a real shfmt formatting violation in it before this change and catches it after.
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe pull request adds shfmt to shell validation, discovers extensionless Bash/sh scripts, updates related policy and skill documentation, and reformats existing shell scripts without changing their stated behavior. ChangesShell validation alignment
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to This PR adds shfmt and broadens shell discovery, but the current head can still omit valid extensionless scripts and produce different lint results locally versus CI. Bootstrap and SSH setup failure paths can also run code from a moving revision or create malformed key-authorization data. These correctness and security risks make the PR unsafe to merge until fixed. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

a hyphen are treated as file targets rather than options; keep the existing

to use NUL-delimited git output with mapfile -d '' -t, preserving filenames
containing newlines. When invoking ShellCheck with the scripts array, insert --
before "${scripts[@]}" so option-shaped filenames are treated as paths, and add

Fixes 6 of 7 findings from the PR #951 review; the 7th (a pre-existing `grep -q` pipeline under pipefail, unrelated to this change) is declined in the PR thread with a before/after diff proving this PR never touches those two lines. - `.github/workflows/validate-task.yml`: - shellcheck's docker invocation now terminates its options with `--` before the file list, matching the adjacent shfmt call and the local Docker wrapper, so an extensionless tracked file with an option-shaped name (e.g. `--severity=error`) is linted as a file rather than parsed as a shellcheck flag. - The extensionless-candidate scan now reads `git ls-files -z` via `mapfile -d ''`, matching the local wrapper's NUL-delimited transport, so a tracked filename containing a newline is not split into bogus candidate paths. - Trimmed the step's comment block to one line per the comment-and-doc-style "one line is the default" rule, and dropped the CODESTYLE.md citation the rule also disallows inline. - `scripts/docker_lint.py`: - `SHEBANG_PATTERN` now matches any POSIX whitespace before `bash`/`sh` (`[/\s]`, not `[/ ]`), so a tab-separated `#!/usr/bin/env<TAB>bash` shebang is recognized locally the same way the CI regex already recognized it. - `ls_files()` gained `include_untracked`, and `extensionless_shell_scripts()` now passes `include_untracked=False` so its discovery is tracked-only, matching CI's plain `git ls-files`. An untracked bare script no longer lints locally on a target CI never sees. - Reflowed `extensionless_shell_scripts`'s docstring to one sentence per line. ## Verified Reproduced both edge cases end to end against a scratch repo: an extensionless, tracked file named `--severity=error` lints as a file (not a flag) through both the CI step's exact commands and `docker_lint.py`, a tab-separated shebang is now discovered by both, and an untracked bare script is excluded by `docker_lint.py` while still present on disk. Full test suite (790 tests), ruff, mypy, actionlint, and the complete `docker_lint.py` run (all 7 linters) all pass clean.
Fixes a CodeRabbit finding on PR #951: the skill's trigger text named only editing a `.sh` file, so a session editing an extensionless bash/ sh script (the exact shape this PR's own gate now covers) would never load the skill that documents the shellcheck-plus-shfmt clean-compile for it. `.agents/skills/shell-codestyle/SKILL.md`: broadened the trigger to "a shell script (a `.sh` file, or an extensionless bash/sh shebang script)". Regenerated into `.github/skills/` and `.claude-plugin/` via `build_dist.py`. Verified: `build_dist.py --check` reports current, `prose_lint.py --diff origin/develop` and `docker_lint.py --linter markdownlint` both pass clean, full test suite (790 tests) unaffected.

Fixes a CodeRabbit finding on PR #951, verified with the reviewer's own reproduction: `SHEBANG_PATTERN`'s substring match classified `#!/usr/bin/python bash` and `#!/usr/bin/env python sh` as shell scripts, because `bash`/`sh` appeared anywhere after a slash or whitespace, including as a plain argument to a different interpreter. - `scripts/docker_lint.py`: replaced `SHEBANG_PATTERN` with `shell_shebang_interpreter()`, which tokenizes the shebang line (`shlex.split`) and accepts only a direct `bash`/`sh` interpreter or the command `env` selects after walking past `env`'s own flags (including `-S`). `has_shell_shebang()` now calls it instead of matching a regex. - `.github/workflows/validate-task.yml`: added the equivalent `is_shell_shebang()` bash function, same token-walk, same `env` handling, in place of the regex. - `scripts/tests/test_docker_lint.py`: added `test_shell_shebang_interpreter_rejects_bash_as_a_plain_argument` (covers every case from the reviewer's own verification script, plus the tab-shebang and bare-`env` cases already covered) and `test_extensionless_script_naming_bash_only_as_an_argument_is_excluded`, plus `test_extensionless_untracked_shebang_script_is_not_picked_up` (formalizes the untracked-exclusion fix from 163ada1, which had only been verified manually until now). ## Verified Reproduced the reviewer's own false-positive cases end to end: a tracked, extensionless `#!/usr/bin/python bash` script is excluded by both the CI step's exact commands and `docker_lint.py`, while a real `bash`/`sh` shebang (plain, `env`-wrapped, tab-separated, or `env -S ... -e`) is still discovered by both. Full test suite (793 tests), ruff, mypy, and actionlint all pass clean. The complete `docker_lint.py` run (all 7 linters, 12 shell targets) passes clean.

In `@scripts/docker_lint.py` around lines 160 - 169, Update the `env -S` command
parsing in `scripts/docker_lint.py` and `.github/workflows/validate-task.yml` to
consume assignment arguments and option operands, including operands for options
such as `-u`, before identifying the command; preserve detection of both named
and extensionless Bash/sh scripts. Add regression cases in
`scripts/tests/test_docker_lint.py` covering these assignment and option-operand
forms.

Walk env's Full Argument Grammar, Fix read's EOF Quirk Fixes 2 real findings from qodo-code-review on PR #952 (the develop -> main promotion PR carrying #951's shell-lint-gate work), both reproduced before the fix. ## env NAME=VALUE and operand-taking flags Both shebang parsers only walked past simple boolean flags before `env`'s command, so `#!/usr/bin/env FOO=1 bash` (a real pattern: environment assignments before the command) fell through as unclassified, while `#!/usr/bin/env -u bash python` (a real pattern: `-u NAME` unsets an env var, taking `bash` as -u's operand rather than naming the interpreter) was misclassified as a bash script. - `scripts/docker_lint.py`: `shell_shebang_interpreter` now walks past `NAME=VALUE` assignments (`_is_env_assignment`) and past `env` options that consume a separate operand token (`-u`/`--unset`, `-C`/`--chdir`), in addition to `-S`/`--split-string` and plain boolean flags. - `.github/workflows/validate-task.yml`: `is_shell_shebang` gained the same walk. ## A no-trailing-newline shebang silently skipped in CI `IFS= read -r first_line < "$file"` returns non-zero at EOF even after correctly filling `first_line`, so the CI step's `... && IFS= read -r first_line < "$file" && is_shell_shebang ...` chain short-circuited before the shebang check ever ran, for a tracked extensionless script whose shebang line is also its last line with no trailing newline. `docker_lint.py`'s `readline()` has no such quirk, so this was a real CI/local divergence, not a difference in what was being checked. - `.github/workflows/validate-task.yml`: reads into `first_line` first, tolerates `read`'s own EOF exit code with `|| true`, then checks the content regardless. ## Verified Reproduced both false-positive/false-negative shebang cases and the no-trailing-newline case end to end, in a scratch repo, through the CI step's exact commands and through `docker_lint.py`. Added `test_shell_shebang_interpreter_walks_past_env_grammar` and `test_extensionless_shebang_script_with_no_trailing_newline_is_picked_up` to `scripts/tests/test_docker_lint.py`. Full test suite (795 tests), ruff, mypy, actionlint, `repo_gate.py`, `prose_lint.py --diff origin/develop`, and the complete `docker_lint.py` run (all 7 linters) all pass clean. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Bug Fixes** * Improved detection of extensionless shell scripts, including files without a final newline. * More accurately recognizes shell interpreters in complex shebang commands using environment assignments, options, argument separators, and split-string syntax. * Validation now more reliably identifies Bash and sh scripts, reducing incorrect linting results. * **Tests** * Added coverage for trailing-newline omissions and expanded shebang parsing scenarios. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai -->

Reject Symlinks From Shebang Discovery, Propagate read Failures Fixes 2 findings from coderabbitai on PR #952 (the develop -> main promotion PR carrying #951's shell-lint-gate work), both reproduced before the fix. ## A tracked symlink could read an arbitrary host file The extensionless-shebang scan opens each candidate file to check its first line, host-side, before Docker ever starts. `[ -f "$file" ]` and Python's `Path.open()` both follow a symlink, so a tracked symlink pointing outside the checkout (`ops/evil -> /etc/shadow`, or anywhere else the CI runner or a dev's own machine can read) had its target's first line read on the host as part of merely checking whether it looks like a shell script. Reproduced: a symlink to a file containing `TOP SECRET` content was read through `read <` on the CI side and `Path.open()` on the Python side. - `.github/workflows/validate-task.yml`: added `[ ! -h "$file" ]` (checks the tracked path itself via `lstat`, never follows it) alongside the existing `-f` check, before any read. - `scripts/docker_lint.py`: `has_shell_shebang` now checks `is_symlink()` first and returns `False` without ever opening the path. - `scripts/tests/test_docker_lint.py`: added `track_symlink()` and two regression tests proving a symlinked extensionless script is excluded from discovery and never opened. This matches established fleet precedent: `build_dist.py`, `skills_install.py`, and `carry.py` (`spec/`) already reject symlinks for the same reason, confirmed by their own existing test suites passing unaffected. ## `read`'s `|| true` masked a genuine read failure too `IFS= read -r first_line < "$file" || true` (landed in #953) tolerated the harmless no-trailing-newline EOF case, but the same `|| true` also swallowed a genuine read failure (permission denied, file removed mid-run), silently skipping a tracked script CI should have linted. - `.github/workflows/validate-task.yml`: replaced the `read`/`|| true` pair with `first_line="$(head -n 1 -- "$file")"`, which reads a no-trailing-newline file cleanly (exit 0) while still failing loudly on a genuine read error, per CodeRabbit's own verified reproduction. ## Verified Reproduced all three cases end to end in a scratch repo: a tracked symlink to a file containing secret content is excluded from discovery on both the CI step's exact commands and `docker_lint.py` (and never opened, confirmed via the new Python test), a no-trailing-newline script is still discovered and read correctly, and a genuine permission-denied read aborts the script instead of being silently skipped. Full test suite (797 tests), ruff, mypy, actionlint, `repo_gate.py`, `prose_lint.py --diff origin/develop`, and the complete `docker_lint.py` run (all 7 linters) all pass clean. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Bug Fixes** * Shell linting now excludes symbolic links from shell-script checks. * Symlink targets are no longer inspected when detecting shell scripts. * Shell-script discovery now handles candidate shebangs more reliably. * **Tests** * Added coverage for extensionless symlinks and symlink shebang detection. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai -->

Enforce shfmt and Broaden Shell-Script Discovery in the Lint Gate
Fixes #950.
The gap
validate-task.yml's shell step ran shellcheck only, and both it anddocker_lint.py'sshellchecklinter discovered targets from a bare*.shglob. CODESTYLE.md's Shell section and theshell-codestyleSkill never named shfmt at all, so nothing documented or enforced the
formatter half of the shell clean-compile, and a tracked script meant
to run as a bare command (no extension, shebang only) was invisible to
both the glob and, before this change, to shfmt.
The fix
.github/workflows/validate-task.yml: the shell step now also runsmvdan/shfmt:latest -d, and its target list is the*.shglob plusevery tracked, extensionless file whose shebang names bash or sh.
scripts/docker_lint.py: added ashfmtlinter entry (shares theshellcheck image's target-discovery shape) and a
discover_shebangfield on
Linterthat both shellcheck and shfmt set, backed by a newextensionless_shell_scripts()/has_shell_shebang()pair so thelocal wrapper matches CI exactly. Tests added in
scripts/tests/test_docker_lint.py..agents/skills/shell-codestyle/SKILL.md(regenerated into.github/skills/and.claude-plugin/viabuild_dist.py),CODESTYLE.md,GOVERNANCE.md, and the twohost-setup/*/README.mdfiles: document the shellcheck-plus-shfmt clean-compile and the
broadened discovery.
Verified
Full doc-lint set (
markdownlint,cspell,actionlint,editorconfig-checker),shellcheck,shfmt, andPSScriptAnalyzerall pass clean via
scripts/docker_lint.pywith no--linterfilter.scripts/repo_gate.py,scripts/prose_lint.py --diff origin/develop,and the full
scripts/tests/suite (790 tests) all pass. Confirmed theextensionless-script gap directly: reproduced Blog's
ops/vps-backup-pullshape in a scratch repo, showeddocker_lint.pymissed a real shfmt formatting violation in it before this change and
catches it after.
