feat(e2e): verify the migration Oracle with reference and broken applications - #1581
Prove that the Migration Harness accepts a known-correct Protect.js upgrade and rejects documented migration mistakes. Deterministic Fake Migrators exercise the real Run pipeline without model calls.
Changes
Add a hidden Reference Migration using Stack, normalized downcase writes, decimal-string bigint boundaries and boolean scan/filter lookups.
Reuse the reviewed migration checks and trusted Stack/FFI metadata; inspect stored boolean HMAC immediately after setActive.
Resolve published npm versions or in-tree tarballs with SHA-256 metadata.
Exercise reference/no-op, broken downcase/bigint/HMAC/rewrite, missing-log, legacy-FFI, tree-tarball and application/lifecycle-denial cases.
Preserve the host broker, security fixes and private-store relays; install Fake Migrator dependencies inside isolation and provide CA certificates for the native client.
Verification
Current head 813ff43582381c8902317763bea19c8e162a4ad1 includes signed supervisor repairs 62b09150f and 9ed2ff135. Shared strace output supplies an explicit PID; the first trusted numeric exec identifies the actor independently of temporary strace capability-probe children discovered through /proc.
A regression reproduced the missing-actor-exit error with a helper PID before the follow-up fix (one failed, 28 passed). All 31 supervisor tests now pass, including missing initial exec, missing root exit, descendant exits and non-leader exec. Independent review/replays found no blocking issue and retained fail-closed behavior.
Base harness: 131 passing tests. Combined adapter head 7e12eaa0d: 220 passing tests, 21 credentialed tests skipped locally. Harness/e2e type checks, scoped Biome and whitespace checks pass. Socket fixtures run with approved sandbox escalation.
Current-head isolation CI passed without retry. Current-head Test JS CI passed; all same-head duplicate workflows also passed without retry. The preceding R4 heads repeatedly failed with missing actor-exit records, including adapter E2E; one base isolation retry passed. Those failures remain recorded and are not dismissed as a passing retry.
A credential-free 30-invocation probe in the existing Linux image passed. strace 6.1 source confirms temporary helper children precede actor startup, establishing the identity race; exact historical CI scheduling was not retained. No VM restart or full local Docker suite was used.
Includes earlier regression-tested fork/PID reuse, denied SO_ERROR and exact Friction Log schema repairs. The earlier combined-suite FIFO timing flake passed its one rerun.
Both same-head Test JS runs and both isolation workflow runs completed successfully. Individual test counts were not re-extracted for this branch.
Earlier failures were run 43118324627 (unmatched vfork continuation) and run 43126226067 (forbidden getsockopt reported successful). Both parser defects were reproduced and repaired; the exact historical syscall arguments/order were not retained. The successful runs above exercise the supervisor repairs before the Friction Log instruction change.
Signed merge commits preserve reviewed history. The duplicate migration-check implementation has been removed. The Reference Migration remains outside actor mounts. This baseline covers DynamoDB and already-v3 PostgreSQL columns; #1605 adds an actual PostgreSQL v2 starting state.
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Added predefined migration scenarios for running the harness without a migrator command.
Stack inputs can use local source trees or tarballs, alongside package versions.
Bug Fixes
Mutation-data inspection failures are reported as behavior or infrastructure issues, as appropriate.
Invalid CLI options, including missing or empty required values, are rejected.
Tests
Expanded coverage for migration behavior, data-store failures, Stack resolution, and live scenarios. Live tests run only when enabled and credentials are available.
Documentation
Documented supported Stack inputs and the migration acceptance matrix.
Run deterministic Fake Migrators against the complete Oracle, inspect stored boolean terms immediately after updates, and resolve npm or tree tarballs before application execution. Refs #1536.
Pack workspace sources through pnpm, retain Fake Migrator artifacts, and exercise caught createApp and npm lifecycle denials through the real Run pipeline. Refs #1536.
It looks like this branch is under active development. To avoid overwhelming you with review comments due to an influx of new commits, CodeRabbit has automatically paused this review. You can configure this behavior by changing the reviews.auto_review.auto_pause_after_reviewed_commits setting.
The migration harness adds a reference application, Stack-source resolution, and deterministic fake migrations. It also adds migration outcome and mutation-snapshot checks, credential-gated live tests, and related harness configuration and documentation.

Summary
Reference application and stores e2e/migration-harness/reference/src/app.mjs, e2e/migration-harness/reference/src/stores.mjs
Adds encrypted customer operations across DynamoDB and PostgreSQL, including queries, updates, and cross-store copies. Store setup validates local database URLs and creates required tables and indexes.
Stack-source resolution and installation e2e/migration-harness/run/stack-source.mjs, e2e/migration-harness/run/real-driver.mjs, e2e/migration-harness/__tests__/stack-source.test.ts
Resolves npm and local Stack sources. The driver records resolved metadata and installs the tarball when available, or the versioned package otherwise. Tests cover npm metadata response forms.
Adds the --fake option and ten deterministic migration variants. The driver runs the selected variant, and the README documents variants, Stack inputs, and live-test credentials.
Mutation checks and acceptance tests e2e/migration-harness/run/behaviour.mjs, e2e/migration-harness/run/real-driver.mjs, e2e/migration-harness/__tests__/*, e2e/migration-harness/isolation/Dockerfile, e2e/vitest.harness.config.ts
Captures mutation data after the active-status check and classifies snapshot failures. Adds migration, live-migration, and snapshot-classification tests; the isolation image adds CA certificates, and Vitest stops after its first failure.

Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
The changes satisfy the active coding requirements in #1536. They add the hidden Reference Migration, Fake Migrator variants, Stack or tarball resolution with version and SHA-256 metadata, static migration checks, stored boolean-HMAC inspection after setActive, and isolation checks. The tests cover reference, no-op, downcase, bigint, stale-HMAC, rewrite, missing-log, legacy-FFI, tree, and lifecycle or App Host denial cases. The implementation keeps dependency installation and application execution inside isolation and does not add an agent install-reporting channel.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
The changes stay within #1536. The added reference application and stores, deterministic migrator, source-resolution logic, snapshot classification, tests, README, CA certificates, and test bail setting support the migration-harness objectives. The changes do not implement the separate PostgreSQL v2 starting-state work in #1605 or an unrelated product feature.

Report only stage failures and failed Oracle checks so GitHub issue matchers can process failures. Stop expensive later Runs after the first failing case. Refs #1536.
Stack native clients load system CA certificates when constructing TLS clients. The slim Node image lacked the trust bundle, so every Reference Migration exited before Oracle calls. Refs #1536.
Use the real per-invocation synthetic protected resource for application and lifecycle denial cases and require a forbidden decision from the trusted observer. Refs #1536.

Use one migration inspection path and retain the immediate boolean-HMAC check while preserving the trusted host broker, stronger snapshot diagnostics and private store relays. Resolve tarball FFI metadata before actor execution and install deterministic fake migrations through isolation.

Application damage discovered immediately after setActive must remain a
behavior failure eligible for diagnosis. Reuse the explicit connection-error
classifier so store outages still receive infrastructure treatment while
missing tables do not hide behind retries. Keep the snapshot before copying
Mutation Data between stores.
Refs #1536
Record the Fake Migrator variant in the Run manifest.
For --fake <variant>, command is ''. The manifest still records agents.migrator: '' and model: 'command-adapter', and it never records the variant. A report from a deterministic Fake Migrator Run looks like a real adapter Run. Intentionally broken variants also end as behaviour, which sets editorEligible to true (see the review-driver test). Any consumer of the manifest cannot tell fake evidence from real agent evidence. Confirm that no report consumer depends on the current values, then record the variant, for example migrator: fakeMigration ? \fake:${fakeMigration}` : commandandmodel: fakeMigration ? 'fake-migrator' : 'command-adapter'`.

npm 12 answers `npm view <spec> <field> --json` with an array even for one exact version. The resolver already unwrapped the version answer but not the protect-ffi dependency answer, so every registry-sourced Run failed provisioning with "Could not resolve Stack FFI dependency" on a machine with npm 12. CI passed because its runners ship an older npm. A single-element answer is now unwrapped; an answer with several values is still rejected.
Found running the first local Run on a maintainer laptop.

Test the Stack dependency declared by the migrated workspace.
For a tree or tarball source, a command migrator can leave a registry dependency in its manifest and lockfile. The App Host replaces it with the local tarball, so the Run can pass while the migrated application installs different Stack code. Make the selected source available to the migrator, and check that the migrated workspace uses it before installing its declared dependencies in the App Host.

Major · P1 The Migrator can replace resolved-stack.tgz and regenerate the lockfile before the App Host installs it. A replacement with the same Stack version and FFI dependency passes the metadata checks, so the run can report the original tarball’s SHA-256 after testing different code. Supply the App Host directly with the host-controlled tarball and verify its installation against that artifact.
The Oracle snapshot of the mutated record ran after the set-active check's
get. An application whose setActive left active__hmac behind and whose get
repaired it would show a clean record to migration.active-hmac-absent.
Inspect directly after setActive; an inspection failure still aborts the
Oracle instead of being recorded as a failed check.
The Migrator controls its workspace, including the resolved-stack.tgz the
App Host installed. A substitute with the same Stack version and FFI range
passed every metadata check, so a Run could report the original tarball's
digest after testing different code. The App Host now receives the
host-held tarball, replacing the copied one without following a planted
symlink, and the install fails unless the lockfile records that tarball's
integrity.
Every isolated exec starts with a startup probe that reads /trace/canary,
so the denied-app and denied-lifecycle Runs passed even if the createApp
probe or the install hook never ran. Require a command-stage denial from
the App Host for denied-app, and from the Migrator stage for
denied-lifecycle, whose bare npm install is the only one that runs the
root install hook.
A --fake Run recorded agents.migrator as an empty command and the model as
command-adapter, so its report could not be told apart from real agent
evidence. Record fake:<variant> and fake-migrator instead.
Keep inspection immediately after setActive and before a repairing read. Classify snapshot failures while retaining completed Oracle checks and the active-HMAC failure evidence, and preserve both branches regression coverage.
