The sandbox environment allow-list in sandbox/ops.rs carried only Unix variable
names, so every child spawned after env_clear() lost SystemRoot, WINDIR,
COMSPEC, PATHEXT, TEMP, TMP, USERPROFILE, APPDATA and LOCALAPPDATA. A Windows
child cannot initialise the OS crypto provider without them, and it fails in a
way that does not look like a missing environment variable:
- node.exe aborts at startup with "Assertion failed: ncrypto::CSPRNG(nullptr, 0)"
(exit 134)
- powershell.exe exits 0xffff0000 with "Internal Windows PowerShell error.
Loading managed Windows PowerShell failed with error 8009001d"
- cmd.exe leaves %SystemRoot% and %USERPROFILE% unexpanded, and falls back to
its built-in PATHEXT, so .cmd shims (npm, npx) stop resolving
The four tool launchers (shell, node_exec, npm_exec, python_exec) already listed
these names, yet the bug survived that fix: all four divert to crate::sandbox
before ever reaching their own allow-list whenever the active agent is
SandboxMode::Sandboxed -- which the built-in orchestrator is -- so the sandbox
list was the only one the main agent actually used.
Adds platform_shell::WINDOWS_PROCESS_ENV_VARS as the canonical list, with
assert_forwards_windows_bootstrap() and a guard per launcher, so a future
sixth allow-list cannot be introduced without it. Values are inherited from
the parent environment, never synthesised or hard-coded; on Linux and macOS the
names do not resolve, so those platforms are unchanged. Secrets handling is
unchanged -- this is still a named allow-list, not inheritance.
Tests: sandbox spawn coverage lives in tests/windows_sandbox_env_e2e.rs because
release lib tests cannot compile on this branch (event_bus_tests.rs calls a
#[cfg(debug_assertions)] function). The spawn probe must be a Rust
CreateProcess: node's own child_process.spawn injects SystemRoot, so a
JavaScript probe reports a stripped environment as healthy.
Tiny Sweeper reviewThis pull request makes Windows child processes bootable after the sandbox and tool launcher spawn paths clear the environment. It introduces a shared Windows process-bootstrap allow-list in platform_shell with a forwarding helper, applies it in both sandbox exec paths (execute_unsandboxed and execute_local_jail), gates each tool launcher's allow-list (shell, node_exec, npm_exec, python_exec) with a shared assertion helper, and adds a registered Windows e2e that spawns through execute_in_sandbox and asserts the child's environment resolves. This revision additionally reorders caller-supplied extra_env to be applied after the sandbox and Windows bootstrap forwarding in the unsandboxed path and after forwarding in the jail path, adds caller TEMP/TMP/TMPDIR override preservation in the local jail, and extends the e2e to cover caller override survival and TEMP containment inside the scratch tree. Remaining review findings are confined to containment and ordering around caller-supplied temporary-directory overrides in execute_local_jail: a caller-provided TEMP/TMP/TMPDIR can point outside the per-call scratch grant and overrides are applied before bootstrap forwarding on the jail path, so a caller value can overwrite a bootstrap variable. One earlier tests-lane finding remains: the crypto regression test still uses SandboxMode::None rather than exercising the sandboxed route. Four e2e CI jobs remain pending. Reviewers note code retrieval and memory were unavailable, so lanes reviewed the diff alone. State: Changes requested Review snapshot

Keep caller temporary directories inside the jail
The new defaults keep TEMP, TMP, and TMPDIR inside scratch.path only when the caller did not provide those keys. A caller can therefore pass TEMP, TMP, or TMPDIR pointing at an arbitrary host path, while the comment claims that every spelling remains inside the per-call grant. Validate caller-provided temporary paths against the jail, or reject/override values that are outside scratch.path before spawning the child.

Exercise the sandboxed route in the crypto regression test
This regression test is described as covering the sandbox execution path used by the orchestrator, but it passes SandboxMode::None. The generic cmd.exe probe does exercise SandboxMode::Sandboxed, yet it does not verify that the Node crypto command survives the local-jail route. A divergence between the unsandboxed and sandboxed backends could therefore reintroduce the reported failure without failing this test. Run the Node and PowerShell probes with SandboxMode::Sandboxed (or add equivalent probes for both modes).

Apply caller TEMP/TMP before forwarding bootstrap variables
The standard-command sandbox path has the same ordering problem: caller-provided values are applied after the validated Windows bootstrap environment and can replace it. Reorder these operations so bootstrap variables retain their required values while unrelated per-call overrides remain supported.
Additional critique observation
Reject empty caller environment overrides
[RULE] empty-environment-value
The empty-value checks only cover inherited variables from SANDBOX_ENV_PASSTHROUGH; extra_env is still copied verbatim. A caller can pass an empty PATH, TEMP, TMP, or TMPDIR, bypassing the validation added here and causing tool launch failures or invalid temporary-directory behavior. Apply the same non-empty validation to caller-provided values before adding them to the command.

Keep caller temporary directories inside the jail
When extra_env contains TEMP (and likewise TMP), this conditional does not replace it with the per-call scratch directory, leaving the caller's path in effect. A sandboxed child can therefore write temporary data outside the jail despite the stated containment policy. Ignore or validate caller-supplied temporary-directory overrides so every Windows temporary spelling resolves under scratch.path.

Bootstrap forwarding precedes caller overrides in unsandboxed path
execute_unsandboxed forwards the Windows bootstrap set before applying extra_env, so a caller that passes SystemRoot, TEMP, USERPROFILE or any other bootstrap name cannot override it — the loop after the call overwrites the caller's value with the parent's. The local-jail path computes caller_sets_* for exactly this reason and orders its loop before the scratch assignments; this path needs the same treatment or a documented reason why caller overrides lose there but win in the jail.
Additional security observation
Apply caller environment before Windows bootstrap variables
[RULE] environment-precedence
extra_env is applied after the Windows bootstrap set, so a per-call environment can overwrite variables that the bootstrap helper deliberately forwards and validates. This can reintroduce the Windows child-startup failures this helper is intended to prevent. Apply extra_env first and invoke the bootstrap forwarding helper afterward so the required bootstrap values have final precedence.

The sandbox allow-list — the one the main agent's children actually go through — was the copy nobody had patched.Change
agent/platform_shell.rs: add canonicalWINDOWS_PROCESS_ENV_VARS(the 12 Windows bootstrap names) +assert_forwards_windows_bootstrap(allowlist, launcher)helper.sandbox/ops.rs: add the Windows bootstrap names toSANDBOX_ENV_PASSTHROUGH. Values are inherited from the parent environment — nothing is synthesized or hard-coded — so Linux/macOS behavior is unchanged (the names simply don't resolve there), and secrets handling is unchanged (still a named allow-list, not inheritance).ops_tests.rs,node_exec_tests.rs,python_exec_tests.rsenforce the superset invariant, so a future sixth allow-list can't be added without the set.tests/windows_sandbox_env_e2e.rs: spawns real children throughexecute_in_sandboxand asserts on the child's own environment.Verification
cargo test --release -p openhuman-cli --test windows_sandbox_env_e2e:The failing tests included
node_crypto_runs_through_sandbox_path(the exactncrypto::CSPRNGassertion) and an env-expansion probe (%SystemRoot%reached the child unexpanded). Tests live intests/because release--libtests cannot compile on this branch (web_chat/event_bus_tests.rscalls a#[cfg(debug_assertions)]function) — a separate issue this PR does not address.Notes
8009001dsymptom is hidden on the sandbox path (thecmd.exewrapper masks it) and was verified separately at the direct-spawn level; thepowershell_runs_through_sandbox_pathtest passes both with and without this fix and is kept as a regression probe, not proof.OpenHuman.exeand confirmingsandbox resolve_policy --sandbox_mode sandboxednow lists the 12 Windows variables.Summary by CodeRabbit
