📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The specifications now record a filesystem probe in which a split-pane teammate received EPERM when reading tmp-canary/.env. The finding and README state that the filesystem sandbox layer covers teammates.

Changes

Teammate filesystem sandbox coverage

The results table records the refused filesystem probe. The finding and README state that filesystem sandbox coverage applies to teammates.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 7f49d

Readers could rely on filesystem isolation for split-pane teammates without confirmation and skip the documented fallback. Qualify the claim or add a control before relying on this security guarantee.

**Finding.** Split-pane teammates run inside the Bash sandbox. The `curl` refusal can only
come from the sandbox's network proxy, and a teammate outside the sandbox would never route
through it. Project permission rules and hooks also apply to teammates. Teammates keep the
permission mode they were spawned with, so switching the lead later does not change them.
The filesystem-layer probe (`node`) is still unconfirmed for teammates. The sandbox applies
both layers together, so it is expected to hold.
The filesystem-layer probe (`node`) was re-run on 2026-10-06. A fresh tmux teammate got
`EPERM`, so both sandbox layers (network and filesystem) cover split-pane teammates.

Do not claim filesystem sandbox coverage from this EPERM alone.

The Node probe shows that the read was refused, but it does not identify the cause. The setup records no file-mode check or same-user read outside Claude Code. Since spec 060 uses this result to assure readers that split-pane teammates have filesystem protection, readers may rely on an unestablished boundary instead of using the documented in-process fallback.

Suggested fix
-| `node -e "require('fs').readFileSync('tmp-canary/.env')"` (sandbox-only signal) | refused (re-run 2026-10-06, v2.1.291), `Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, open 'tmp-canary/.env'` | **Sandbox filesystem layer** (`./**/.env` deny) |
+| `node -e "require('fs').readFileSync('tmp-canary/.env')"` | refused (re-run 2026-10-06, v2.1.291), `Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, open 'tmp-canary/.env'` | Cause not isolated; no same-user control |

Apply the same qualification in specs/README.md and the checklist: compare the canary read from a same-user process outside Claude Code before attributing the teammate’s EPERM to the sandbox.
