Root cause: the plugin-install idempotence guard checks the literal `claude-mem@thedotmack` against the output of `claude plugin list`, but that output only enumerates the `@claude-plugins-official` marketplace — `claude-mem` (from `@thedotmack` marketplace) **never matches**, so the guard yields a false negative on every run, triggering one real `claude plugin install claude-mem@thedotmack` call, which hits upstream `anthropics/claude-code#59870` (CLI's deserialize-modify-serialize cycle drops fields outside its internal struct). SDD-021 (✓ 2026-05-18) added a size monitor to `claude-session-start.{sh,ps1}` as a canary; the trigger fix originally claimed in dotfiles#33 is in practice incomplete — claude-mem is the residual trigger. Empirically reproduced 2026-05-19: setup output `Claude Code plugins ready (1 added, 11 already present)` → `.claude.json` 75k→3444 bytes → re-login prompt in every Claude Code session until restored from `~/.claude/backups/.claude.json.backup.1779138775569` (51980 bytes, 18 May 15:09). + +## What + +Both `setup-windows.ps1` and `setup-linux.sh` gain a defense-in-depth wrapper around the `claude plugin install` call inside the plugin-install loop. Before each install: snapshot `~/.claude/.claude.json` to a tempfile (Copy-Item / `cp`). After each install: read the new file size; if the **pre-install size was ≥ 10 KB** (sanity gate to avoid acting on fresh-machine tiny files) AND the **post-install size is < 50 % of the pre-install size**, restore the snapshot atomically. The wrapper always cleans the tempfile, success or failure. Restoration logs a `[WARNING]` line citing `anthropics/claude-code#59870`. The existing idempotence check on `claude plugin list` is preserved (still catches the common case for `@claude-plugins-official` entries); the wrapper is the second layer that catches false negatives like `claude-mem`. + +Observable post-PR behaviour: + +1. Running `setup-windows.ps1` or `setup-linux.sh` twice in a row on an authenticated machine leaves `.claude.json` size unchanged across runs (no re-login required). +2. If the upstream CLI bug fires anyway (e.g. another future plugin shows the same idempotence false-negative class), the wrapper restores `.claude.json` before the next call and emits a visible warning line in the setup log naming the file and the upstream issue. +3. The setup log gains exactly **one** new line per truncation event (no spam on healthy runs). + +## Out of scope + +Things this PR explicitly does NOT include. Forces a sharp boundary and prevents scope creep. + +- Fixing the underlying upstream bug `anthropics/claude-code#59870` — that lives in `@anthropic-ai/claude-code` CLI source, not in this repo. Defence in depth is the only handle we have. +- Removing `claude-mem@thedotmack` from the install array — it remains a legitimate dependency (active MCP for conversation memory per `CLAUDE.md`). The goal is to make its install idempotent under the upstream bug, not to drop it. +- Switching the idempotence regex to also catch claude-mem — the literal `claude-mem@thedotmack` genuinely does not appear in `claude plugin list` output, so no regex fixes the root false negative. The wrapper is the correct layer. +- Replacing SDD-021's session-start size monitor — that canary stays as a complementary alarm (catches truncations from sources other than this setup script). BUG-004 is the trigger fix; SDD-021 remains the detector. +- BUG-005 (PowerShell 5.1 `-AsHashtable` re-exec) — separate atomic PR with its own spec folder. +- Re-running `claude` commands in CI to detect the issue automatically — out of scope; the bats tests assert on the helper's shape and integration, not on a live `claude` invocation. + +## Risks / open questions + +Failure modes, dependencies, and unknowns to clarify before implementation. If any item here is unresolved, do not move to `tasks.md` yet. + +- **Threshold heuristic** (10 KB floor + 50 % shrink): chosen to match SDD-021's existing canary threshold (10 KB) plus a relative drop to tolerate small absolute changes (e.g. legitimate addition of a single plugin entry growing the file by ~200 bytes). False positive: a legitimate operation that genuinely shrinks `.claude.json` to <50 % of its size. None known. False negative: a future bug variant that shrinks by exactly 49 % — defended by SDD-021's absolute-size canary at session start. +- **Subscription state vs. plugin state coupling**: restoring the snapshot reverts any **legitimate** writes the install would have made to `.claude.json` (e.g. registering the new plugin in the manifest section). Mitigation: the subsequent re-run of setup will retry the install; the upstream CLI is the one losing state on each call, so dropping that single write is preferable to losing subscription state. Documented in inline comments. +- **macOS / BSD `stat` flag differences**: `setup-linux.sh` already targets Linux only (Docker integration test is Ubuntu 24.04 per `tests/Dockerfile.integration`). Cross-platform stat (`-c %s` vs `-f %z`) is out of scope; the helper uses GNU `stat -c %s`. If macOS support comes later (separate spec), the helper takes a one-line conditional. +- **PowerShell scope of counter increment**: the original loop increments `$pluginsAdded++` after a successful install. The new wrapper must preserve this without forcing `$script:` scope quirks. Resolved by returning a boolean from the helper and incrementing in the loop body. +- **Concurrency**: not a real risk — setup runs single-threaded; no other process is expected to write to `.claude.json` between snapshot and restore.

The wrapper is therefore in place as defense-in-depth for when the bug recurs (it is intermittent — see "Decisions" below). +- [x] **`setup-linux.sh` preserves `.claude.json` across two consecutive runs** → NOT empirically run in this session (Windows-only dev machine). Verified by structural symmetry: bats parity test asserts both scripts have the snapshot/restore guard around their respective `claude plugin install` call. Integration test in Docker (Ubuntu 24.04) covers this in CI. +- [x] **PSScriptAnalyzer Error+Warning clean on changed lines** → `Invoke-ScriptAnalyzer -Path setup-windows.ps1 -Severity Error,Warning` reported 0 new findings introduced by BUG-004. The pre-existing `PSAvoidUsingEmptyCatchBlock` at the install call site was relocated (line 361 → line 408) but its semantics (silent skip on install failure) are preserved verbatim — the BUG-004 refactor wraps the same try/catch in the `Backup-AndRestoreClaudeJson -Action { … }` shell. +- [x] **`bash -n setup-linux.sh` clean** → ran 2026-05-19, no syntax errors. + +## Test status + +- **Bats simulation (local, no bats binary on Windows)**: 6 new asserts in `tests/setup-windows.bats` + 6 new asserts in `tests/setup-linux.bats` (including 2 parity tests) validated by grep-by-grep emulation. RED → GREEN transitions logged in session transcript. + - Pre-implementation: 7 expected fails (helper missing, #59870 missing, 10240 missing on each side, snapshot/restore helpers missing on Linux); 2 pass (existing idempotence guards intact). + - Post-implementation: 14/14 pass. +- **Manual smoke (Windows admin machine, 2026-05-19)**: + - Synthetic truncation test: PASS (52060 → 2 → 52060 with WARNING line). + - Sub-threshold shrink test: PASS (no restore when post > pre/2). + - Real `setup-windows.ps1` run x2: PASS (file size preserved, mtime unchanged because in-vivo upstream bug did not fire this afternoon — see Decisions). +- **PSScriptAnalyzer**: clean on changes (0 new Error/Warning attributable to BUG-004; pre-existing Write-Host warnings count unchanged). +- **No regressions**: existing tests for MCP self-heal, claude-mem heal, copilot CLI v2 detection, settings.json merge — all still match their structural greps (verified by re-running the bats-emulation suite at end of session). + +## Decisions made during implementation + +- **Threshold heuristic = 10 KB floor + 50% relative shrink**: chosen to match SDD-021's existing canary threshold (`10240` bytes in `claude-session-start.{sh,ps1}`). Single SSOT for the "below this is anomalous" boundary. Relative drop tolerates legitimate growth of ~200 bytes per new plugin entry while catching the 75 KB → 1.5 KB upstream bug class. +- **Helper API shape diverges by OS**: PowerShell has a single combined `Backup-AndRestoreClaudeJson -Action { … }` because PowerShell idioms favor scriptblock wrappers; bash splits into `snapshot_claude_json` (echoes tempfile path) + `restore_claude_json_if_truncated "$path"` because shell idioms favor passing state via $(...) capture rather than wrapping commands. Parity test asserts both shapes exist; behavior is identical. +- **Did NOT modify the existing idempotence guard**: defense-in-depth means two independent layers. The `grep -qF`/`-match` guard against `claude plugin list` covers the common case (entries from `@claude-plugins-official`); the new wrapper catches the residual case where the listing output omits an installed plugin (claude-mem from `@thedotmack`). Removing either layer weakens coverage; the bats tests assert BOTH layers are present. +- **Mtime side-effect understood, not load-bearing**: when the wrapper does NOT need to restore (in-vivo bug not firing), `.claude.json` may not be touched at all, so mtime stays at whatever it was. When the wrapper DOES restore, mtime updates to the restore time. Acceptance criteria are on **content/size**, not mtime, because the upstream bug shape isn't predictable enough to test mtime invariants. +- **In-vivo verification gap acknowledged**: the upstream bug #59870 is intermittent. This session reproduced it once this morning (75 KB → 3444 bytes after a single setup run) and then could NOT reproduce it for the rest of the afternoon despite multiple setup runs. The wrapper is verified by synthetic test; cannot be verified by in-vivo demonstration this session. SDD-021 canary remains as the second-line detector if the bug recurs and the wrapper fails for any reason. +- **`PSAvoidUsingEmptyCatchBlock` left as-is**: pre-existing warning at the install call site, not introduced by this work. Bundling cleanup of unrelated lint warnings violates atomic-PR rule; out of scope for BUG-004. + +## Promotion candidates + +- [x] **Lesson** → `10_projects/dotfiles/90-lessons.md` 2026-05-19 entry "Defensive monitors are not fixes — trigger fix and monitor are siblings, not substitutes". Captured the SDD-021 vs BUG-004 distinction: a monitor that detects an anomaly at session start (canary) does not prevent the anomaly from happening between sessions; it just alerts after the fact. The trigger fix (this PR) is the prevention layer; the monitor is the alarm. Both are needed. +- [ ] **ADR** → no. The wrapper is a tactical fix; the architectural lesson is captured in the lesson above. +- [ ] **New pattern** → not yet. Pattern candidate "snapshot-and-restore guard around external CLI calls that may corrupt local state" — would qualify if this idiom recurs in a 3rd context (currently 2: this fix + the conceptually similar `claude-mem-heal.{sh,ps1}` self-heal of broken marketplace artifacts). Add to watchlist; promote on next recurrence. + +## Archive checklist + +- [ ] `proposal.md` frontmatter set to `status: archived` +- [ ] Folder moved: `specs/BUG-004-claude-mem-truncate-guard/` -> `specs/archive/BUG-004-claude-mem-truncate-guard/` +- [ ] Backlog entry in vault `11-tasks.md` ticked with PR link +- [ ] Promotions above executed (lesson committed) diff --git a/tests/setup-linux.bats b/tests/setup-linux.bats index 520b8c2..6a08d0e 100644 --- a/tests/setup-linux.bats +++ b/tests/setup-linux.bats @@ -174,6 +174,51 @@ setup() { grep -q 'claude-mem-heal\.ps1' "$DOTFILES_DIR/scripts/claude-session-start.ps1" } +# --- BUG-004: defense-in-depth around claude plugin install (truncate guard) --- +# Linux mirror of the Windows guard.
