RFAI-11: Ambient channel hardening — VS Code extension + voice prototype#1079Chris0Jeky wants to merge 28 commits into
Conversation
Choose VS Code extension over desktop voice for ambient channel hardening based on testability, smaller privacy surface, and developer workflow fit. Add VsCodeExtension (= 11) to CaptureSource enum, register "vscode" as supported source surface, and add VsCode to LlmRequestSourceSurface.
Minimal extension with capture-selection and capture-file commands, right-click context menu, Ctrl+Shift+T keybinding, status bar indicator, and git remote hash for workspace identification. Uses VS Code SecretStorage for token management. No marketplace publishing (prototype only per ADR-0033).
Backend: 3 new theory tests verify "vscode" is accepted as a supported source surface (case-insensitive). Frontend: useVoiceCapture composable provides browser-local voice capture, explicitly rejecting webkitSpeechRecognition (streams to Google). 7 unit tests cover supported/unsupported/webkit-rejection, start/stop/transcript/error flows. Extension: context.test.ts covers buildCaptureText formatting.

The test script targets ./out/test/runTest.js, but this commit does not add a corresponding src/test/runTest.ts (or any checked-in runner that would produce that file), so npm test will fail with a module-not-found error in a clean checkout. This leaves the new extension without a runnable automated test entrypoint and blocks CI/local verification of the feature.

This request path only listens for error events and never sets a request timeout, so if the configured API host accepts the connection but does not respond (for example, a hung proxy or blackholed route), the promise can remain pending for a long time and the command appears frozen with the UI stuck in "Sending...". Adding explicit timeout+abort handling would make failures deterministic and recoverable.

The test script still fails in a clean checkout because it type-checks with npx tsc --noEmit and then immediately requires ./out/context.test.js, but --noEmit does not produce out/*. Fresh evidence versus earlier review threads: the current script now points to out/context.test.js, yet it still never compiles before executing it, so npm test can fail with module-not-found unless npm run compile was run manually beforehand.

The URL validation only checks new URL(value) but does not enforce http:/https: schemes, so values like ftp://... are accepted by setApiUrl even though the UX says “valid HTTP(S) URL.” Later createCapture routes any non-https: protocol through http.request, which makes captures fail at runtime with a network/protocol error until the user fixes config manually.

The response stream error handler is currently a no-op, so a connection drop after headers can leave this promise unresolved: end never fires, no rejection is emitted, and the command can stay stuck in the "Sending..." state indefinitely. This is especially reproducible with flaky proxies or mid-stream socket resets. Handle res failures (error/aborted/close) by rejecting so the UI can recover.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
This test file duplicates buildCaptureText inline instead of importing the production function, so the test can pass even when src/context.ts regresses. Any future change that updates only one copy will silently invalidate coverage and let formatting bugs ship. The test should execute the actual exported formatter (or a helper extracted from it), not a reimplementation.

createCapture falls back to http for any non-https: protocol, so a user-edited taskdeck.apiUrl (for example ftp://... in VS Code settings JSON) will bypass the command-level validator and fail at runtime with a protocol/network error instead of a deterministic config error. Fresh evidence versus earlier review threads: setApiUrl now checks protocol, but this path still reads raw config and never rejects non-HTTP schemes before http.request is chosen.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
This call executes 'git remote get-url origin' through execSync with cwd set to the opened workspace, which allows command resolution from the workspace directory. On Windows, a repo containing a malicious git.cmd/git.bat can be executed when capture runs, turning a normal capture action into arbitrary code execution. Use a non-shell invocation (execFile/spawn with shell: false) and explicit args to prevent workspace command hijacking.

| recognition = new SpeechRecognitionCtor() | ||
| recognition.continuous = false |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
startListening() always creates a new SpeechRecognition instance without checking whether one is already active. If the user triggers start twice before onend, the original session keeps running but its reference is lost, so stopListening() can no longer stop it and multiple callbacks can race to mutate transcript/status. Guard against re-entry (or stop the existing instance) before assigning a new recognizer.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
This always constructs the request URL from an absolute path (/api/capture/items), which drops any path segment configured in taskdeck.apiUrl (for example https://host/taskdeck becomes https://host/api/capture/items). Because parseTaskdeckApiBaseUrl currently accepts such URLs, reverse-proxy/subpath deployments will consistently post to the wrong endpoint and capture will fail until users reconfigure to an origin-only URL.

| recognition = null | ||
| } |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
stopListening() clears recognition immediately after calling stop(), but SpeechRecognition.stop() can deliver the final onresult asynchronously. Because onresult ignores callbacks when recognition !== activeRecognition, users who press stop right after speaking can lose the last recognized phrase and end up with an empty/partial transcript even though recognition succeeded.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
sendCapture always schedules an unconditional status reset 3 seconds after each attempt, so overlapping captures can clobber each other’s UI state: if capture A finishes first while capture B is still running, A’s timer flips the status bar back to $(cloud-upload) Taskdeck even though B is still Sending... (or may later fail). This makes the extension report an idle/success-looking state during an in-flight request and can hide useful failure feedback for the active capture. Track the latest request (or an in-flight counter) before resetting the status text.

The extension manifest defines "lint": "eslint src", but this commit does not add eslint to devDependencies (or the lockfile), so npm run lint fails in a clean checkout with a command-not-found error. That makes the provided lint entrypoint non-functional for local verification and will break any CI job that invokes the lint script.

This test hard-codes a Windows-style path and expects getSafeDocumentLabel to return only private-plan.ts, but node:path.basename is platform-dependent: on Linux/macOS it treats backslashes as normal characters, so the value remains C:\\Users\\alice\\Documents\\private-plan.ts. In CI or local non-Windows runs, this causes npm test to fail even when the implementation is unchanged. Use a platform-agnostic expectation (or path.win32.basename for this fixture) so the extension test suite is runnable cross-platform.
