fix(server): SSH-signed commits work when the server starts outside the login shell - #35416
The server's startup login-shell probe (apps/server/src/os-jank.ts) read only PATH, __MISE_DIFF and JAVA_HOME, so a server started without the login shell never got SSH_AUTH_SOCK. The WSL backend starts this way (wsl.exe --exec env PATH=... node ...), and SSH-signed git commit then failed with Couldn't get agent socket?. The probe now also reads SSH_AUTH_SOCK. applyLoginShellEnvironment uses the login shell's value only when the process env has none, so an explicit socket is kept (same rule as JAVA_HOME). The WSL bootstrap does not set shellEnvironmentPrepared, so fixPath runs this probe inside the distro and covers the WSL path without a desktop change; refreshPathFromLoginShell gets the same behavior because it shares the name list and apply function. Proof: the repro test from factory/repro-5740 failed before the fix and passes now. On Linux, with SSH_AUTH_SOCK unset and $SHELL set to a login-shell wrapper that exports a temporary ssh-agent socket, fixPath set the socket and an SSH-signed commit succeeded. The real Windows -> WSL launch was not run because wsl.exe is not available here. No new regex or parser: extraction reuses the existing marker-based extractEnvironmentValues.
Commit f03db4f (origin/main). On Linux: started a temporary ssh-agent with a throwaway ed25519 key, set $SHELL to a login-shell wrapper that exports SSH_AUTH_SOCK (standing in for a WSL login profile), created a repo with commit.gpgsign=true, gpg.format=ssh, user.signingkey=, staged a file. Ran the real server startup step fixPath() from apps/server/src/os-jank.ts with SSH_AUTH_SOCK unset in the process env, then git commit -m signed with the resulting env. Observed: SSH_AUTH_SOCK still unset after fixPath; git exited 128 with error: Couldn't get agent socket? / fatal: failed to write commit object. The same login shell reports the socket and ssh-add -l lists the key. The Windows desktop -> WSL launch (wsl.exe --exec env PATH=... node ...) could not be run here because wsl.exe is unavailable. Code shows the WSL preflight probe captures only PATH and the server's login-shell fallback reads only PATH, __MISE_DIFF and JAVA_HOME. Added one test to apps/server/src/os-jank.test.ts on factory/repro-5740 that fails on main (expected undefined to equal '/run/user/1000/ssh-agent.sock'); the other 8 tests pass.
Evidence
Being captured: before and after in the real app. This section is filled in before the pull request can merge.
Tests
vp test run src/os-jank.test.ts (apps/server): 1 failed / 8 passed before the fix, 9 passed after. vp run check:changed: format, lint, knip, graphql, typecheck (3 packages), test (2 files) all pass. Manual end-to-end on Linux: throwaway ssh-agent, login-shell wrapper exporting SSH_AUTH_SOCK, repo with gpg.format=ssh and commit.gpgsign=true; after fixPath the signed commit succeeded.
Not in this change
GitVcsDriverCore reduces unclassified Git failures to 'Git command exited with a non-zero status.' and keeps raw stderr out on purpose (hook output and file paths). Showing signing errors would need a new failure reason and wording (e.g. a commit-signing reason with a curated sentence), which is a separate user-visible change.
The desktop WSL preflight still captures only PATH for the wsl.exe --exec env PATH=... launch; the server's own probe now supplies SSH_AUTH_SOCK, so the desktop launch is unchanged.
AI-assisted; verified with the tests and tools listed above.
Failing reproduction for #5740: the startup login-shell probe never reads
SSH_AUTH_SOCK, so SSH-signed commits fail when the server is launched
without the agent socket (wsl.exe --exec, service managers).
AI-assisted; verified with the tests and tools listed above.
…he login shell
The startup login-shell probe now also reads SSH_AUTH_SOCK and fills it
when the process env lacks it, so a backend launched through
`wsl.exe --exec` can reach the SSH agent for signed commits.
AI-assisted; verified with the tests and tools listed above.
Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Restores the user's SSH agent socket when the server starts without it, enabling existing SSH signing configuration to work. Explicit socket settings are preserved, and signing policy remains unchanged.

Login-shell environment capture now includes SSH_AUTH_SOCK. On POSIX systems, the value is applied only when the process environment does not already define it. A Linux test checks both the unset and preconfigured cases.

Summary
Capture and apply SSH_AUTH_SOCK apps/server/src/os-jank.ts, apps/server/src/os-jank.test.ts
The login-shell probe requests SSH_AUTH_SOCK. The environment application copies it only when the process value is unset. A Linux test verifies that a missing value is populated and /custom/agent.sock is preserved.
pingdotgg/t3code#10312: This PR changes the same login-shell hydration path to recover a missing SSH_AUTH_SOCK.
pingdotgg/t3code#34365: This PR adds the shared environment helper that this change extends.

Merge Risk: Minimal · up to eef1a
The change lets SSH-signed commits find the agent socket when the server starts outside the login shell, without overriding a socket that is already configured. I found no remaining concrete merge-blocking risk in the reviewed change.

Explanation
The title names the main change: SSH-signed commits now work when the server starts outside the login shell. The changeset adds SSH_AUTH_SOCK to the login-shell environment probe and applies it when the process env lacks it, which matches the title. The title follows the conventional commit format and is specific. It is 83 characters, which is longer than ideal, but it remains clear.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the template well. It covers Problem, Change, Scope (links issue #5740 and explains the bug fix), Verification (focused test results before and after, plus a manual Linux end-to-end check), and notes what was not checked (the real Windows-to-WSL launch). It also has a Not in this change section. The Evidence section says before/after evidence is still being captured and must be filled before merge, which is a gap. The template's model/harness attribution line is present as 'AI-assisted' but does not name the model and harness, so it is incomplete.
Resolution
Optional but recommended: name the model and harness that did the work, as the template asks. Also complete or remove the pending 'Evidence' placeholder before merge. The template asks for before/after evidence only for UI changes, so this is not required here if the section is removed.

Explanation
All changes in apps/server/src/os-jank.ts add SSH_AUTH_SOCK to the login-shell env name list and the apply function. Both changes serve the #5740 agent-environment objective. The shared list also affects refreshPathFromLoginShell. The PR description states this is intended, and the change is limited to the same variable. The added test in os-jank.test.ts covers the new behavior. The PR does not change the desktop WSL preflight, GitVcsDriverCore, or the UI error path, so it adds no unrelated changes.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
[#5740] Requirement 1, inherit or resolve the login shell SSH agent environment: met in code. os-jank.ts adds SSH_AUTH_SOCK to LOGIN_SHELL_ENV_NAMES, so the login-shell probe captures it. applyLoginShellEnvironment copies it into the process env when the env value is unset and the shell supplies one. The PR reports a Linux repro that fails on main and passes after the fix. The real Windows-to-WSL launch was not run, so the WSL path is covered by code reading and the PR description only. [#5740] Requirement 2, surface Git's actionable stderr and identify commit signing as the failure when the agent is unavailable: not implemented. The PR description states this is excluded. GitVcsDriverCore still reduces the failure to 'Git command exited with a non-zero status.' The issue lists this as expected behavior, so it remains an unmet coding requirement.
Resolution
Implement requirement 2 of #5740 in this PR. Pass Git stderr for commit failures to the UI, or add a commit-signing-specific failure reason with a curated message when the SSH agent socket is unavailable. Add automated tests for that failure path. Alternatively, the issue owner must agree to split requirement 2 into a separate issue and update #5740 to remove it from this PR's scope.

The automated pipeline stopped on this pull request and will not merge it:
in the real app the problem is still there, and the rework changed nothing:
No code change was needed; head stays eef1a30. The reported failure came from the harness, not the fix. e2e starts the app command with an allowlisted environment that drops SHELL. I logged every git call the app server made during the scenario: all 308 ran with SHELL and SSH_AUTH_SOCK unset, including the UI's commit -m Signed change; only the scenario's own calls kept SHELL. With no SHELL, the server's login-shell probe falls back to the account's default shell (/bin/bash), whose profile does not export the agent socket, so base and head both failed. That matches the reviewer's result. I reran the same real-app comparison (web client, fresh scenario databases, replay thread, Git action options -> Commit -> 'Signed change' -> Commit) with a temporary, uncommitted env: { SHELL: process.env.SHELL } on the web app command, SSH_AUTH_SOCK unset, and the private key held only by the agent (with the unencrypted private key beside the .pub, ssh-keygen signs without the agent and both sides pass). Base: 'Action failed' and the change stays uncommitted. Head: a commit 'Signed change' with a good SSH signature (%G? = G). The fix therefore works when the server inherits the user's SHELL, as it does in real launches; the WSL path relies on the same fixPath probe because the WSL bootstrap does not set shellEnvironmentPrepared.
It stays open for a person to finish or close.
