feat(tools): route the remaining write tools through the guard (U7, #1375)

[easonLiangWorldedtech]

Split unit U7 of #1833, under the plan on this issue (5993969784 / 5994039786 / 5994053776). Base is U5 (#1915) per the merge order.

Scope (one gate scope): the remaining write tools — apply_diff, write_to_file, edit, edit_file, search_replace publish through the same guard, so a write that was not earned by a read fails with the standard remediation instead of overwriting.

Content source of record: kind: commit, base 7c291bb08 → head 6768ccfaf, replayed on the current main tip 9af61f87e so this branch carries nothing that main already has.

Budget (own delta, not the stacked view): 539 a+d / 54 changed executable lines. Inside both caps.

Verification at this head: 108 passed, 5 skipped across the five specs; ESLint --max-warnings=0 clean on every file in the unit; Prettier clean; src/eslint-suppressions.json never increased.

The GitHub view also carries the unmerged base, so the numbers above are this unit's own delta.

Closes: #1375 (part 7 of 9 - the remaining write tools publish through the same guard; see the tracking issue for the unit map and merge order U1 U2 U3 U4 U5 U8 U6 U7 U9). Split plan of record: easonLiangWorldedtech#41.

Description (how)

• guardedWrite() is the single publish entry point for the write tools: it resolves the target against task.cwd, checks containment lexically and then canonically (a symlink that lands outside the workspace is rejected), picks the guard from the task's ObservationRegistry (create-if-absent, recreate, compare-and-swap on the version token, or the unobserved-edit remediation), and runs the publish on the per-path FIFO chain so concurrent writes to one path are ordered.
• A write to a path outside every workspace root is no longer an outright rejection: the tool layer classifies against all workspace folders, asks the user, and forwards the approval (approvedOutsideWorkspace) plus the other folder roots (additionalRoots) to the guard, which re-checks containment against those roots before publishing.
• apply_diff, apply_patch, write_to_file, edit, edit_file and search_replace all save through DiffViewProvider.saveDirectly() / guardedWrite() with an explicit write kind, so a targeted edit is never treated as a full-file replacement and an unearned write fails with the re-read remediation instead of overwriting.
• The tools' own reads (the diff hunk read, the patch hunk read) bracket the read with a bigint fs.stat pair and observe the file only when both tokens match, so the publish is authorized by the exact bytes the tool computed its hunks from; a stat failure leaves the file unobserved and never fails the read.
• This round also closes the review findings on this unit: an unresolvable workspace root no longer falls back to the lexical-only containment decision, a path that runs through a dangling symlink ancestor is refused instead of re-joined lexically, and the stat-failure branches above are covered by tool-level tests.

Pre-Submission Checklist

• Scope is one gate scope and matches the unit plan on VPS2 durable per-view state - independent-fix series (supersedes #34 + the 21-item upstream draft series) easonLiangWorldedtech/Zoo-Code#41.
• No .changeset or CHANGELOG changes (AGENTS.md).
• src/eslint-suppressions.json byte-identical - no suppression count increased.
• New code lints clean (--max-warnings=0) rather than relying on suppressions.
• Tests added at the lowest layer that would have caught each finding.
• Branch rebased on the current main tip so the diff carries nothing main already has.

Test Procedure

1. pnpm --dir src test -- core/tools/__tests__/guardedWrite.spec.ts core/tools/__tests__/applyPatchTool.execute.spec.ts core/tools/__tests__/applyPatchTool.partial.spec.ts core/tools/__tests__/applyDiffTool.guardedWrite.spec.ts core/tools/__tests__/writeToFileTool.spec.ts core/tools/__tests__/editTool.spec.ts core/tools/__tests__/searchAndReplaceTool.spec.ts - 138 passed, 5 skipped.
2. pnpm --dir src test -- integrations/editor/__tests__/DiffViewProvider.spec.ts utils/__tests__/safeWriteJson.test.ts utils/__tests__/safeWriteJson.lockKey.spec.ts - 166 passed, 4 skipped.
3. pnpm --dir src exec eslint --max-warnings=0 core/tools/guardedWrite.ts core/tools/__tests__/guardedWrite.spec.ts core/tools/__tests__/applyPatchTool.execute.spec.ts core/tools/__tests__/applyDiffTool.guardedWrite.spec.ts - clean.

Documentation Updates

No user-facing documentation change: the guard is internal behaviour of the write tools, and the model-facing remediation text (re-read the file, then retry) already existed in the earlier units of this series. No new setting, no schema change, no webview surface, so the persisted-setting round-trip checklist does not apply. No .changeset and no CHANGELOG edit (AGENTS.md).

Additional Notes

• Approved outside-workspace writes are now bound to the canonical identity captured BEFORE the approval was asked (approvedCanonicalTarget); the guard only compares and refuses when the capture is missing. See the fixed note on this PR for the negative controls (comparison dropped -> 2 failed, baseline from the post-approval lookup -> 1 failed, missing capture accepted -> 1 failed).
• The mutation gate could not be pre-flighted locally on Windows: scripts/stryker-diff.mjs spawns <root>/node_modules/.bin/vitest (:349, :364) and .bin/stryker (:412), and spawnSync cannot execute those extensionless shims on Windows (ENOENT). The script was deliberately left untouched; the delta itself is 53 changed executable lines, far below the 500 cap.
• Stacked on U5 (feat(tools): publish apply_patch through the guard (U6, #1375) #1915); merge order for the series is U1 U2 U3 U4 U5 U8 U6 U7 U9.

Walkthrough

The pull request adds per-task file-version observations and guarded writes for file tools. It adds an atomic text publisher and updates safeWriteJson to use it. Read processing tracks completeness, clipping, and lossy decoding.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to b74fc

With the default diff view, a patch that moves a file can still overwrite an existing destination that was never read, or that changed after it was read. This contradicts the PR's goal of routing all apply_patch writes through the write guard. Route the move destination through the guarded save before merging.

Full details: Regression Evidence

Explanation

safeWriteText has an untested synchronous warning-sink failure path. Its warn helper catches a callback that throws synchronously and reports onWarning callback failed at src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts:422-436. The focused suite only covers an asynchronously rejecting onWarning callback at src/services/file-safety/__tests__/safeWriteText.spec.ts:284-313; it does not exercise the synchronous throw branch. This is changed behavior in the pull request and can regress without a test.

Resolution

Add a focused safeWriteText unit test for the Windows DACL-warning path with onWarning: () => { throw new Error("sink failed") }. Assert that the write still resolves and commits, and that the fallback warning reports onWarning callback failed.

Full details: Security Boundaries

Explanation

The new safeWriteJson confinement path can bypass its allowlist through a dangling symlink ancestor. In src/utils/safeWriteJson.ts:70-100, _resolveScopeRoot treats every ENOENT component as missing and never checks whether that component is an existing symlink. At src/utils/safeWriteJson.ts:155-164, the reconstructed lexical path is accepted before mkdir. For example, with confineTo=/workspace, a dangling /workspace/cache symlink to /outside and target /workspace/cache/nested/settings.json can be reconstructed as inside /workspace; recursive mkdir then follows the symlink and creates or writes under /outside. The later final-target check in safeWriteText only checks the final path (src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts:164-178) and does not close this ancestor case.

Resolution

When an ENOENT realpath walk encounters an existing component, call lstat on that component and reject symbolic links and non-ENOENT inspection errors. Canonicalize the nearest confirmed existing ancestor and append only confirmed-absent components. Apply this no-follow validation before the initial mkdir, and repeat it under the lock immediately before directory creation and staging so a symlinked ancestor cannot redirect a confined write.

Full details: Lifecycle Resource Cleanup

Explanation

runTeardown() can leave a provider half-torn down after a cleanup error. The first revertChanges() caller runs the cleanup at lines 908-956, then runs preview restoration and reset() only if that cleanup succeeds at lines 961-970. If updatedDocument.save(), fs.unlink(), or another cleanup step rejects, runTeardown() skips finalize, clears teardownInFlight, and resolves its private gate in the finally block at lines 1081-1088. A concurrent cancellation or disposal caller, such as the two Task paths at lines 3415-3417 and 3785-3787, waits for that resolved gate and returns false at lines 1067-1071. It therefore does not run restorePreviewTabs() or reset(). The diff provider can retain isEditing, activeDiffEditor, relPath, and the diff/preview tabs after cancellation or disposal. The new PR-added teardown coalescing creates this no-fallback path.

Resolution

Make teardown finalization best-effort and guaranteed. Run restorePreviewTabs() and reset() in a finally path after cleanup, while preserving and rethrowing the original cleanup error. Keep the in-flight gate held until cleanup and finalization both settle. If finalization also fails, report it without leaving teardownInFlight or provider lifecycle state stuck. Add a regression test where the first revertChanges() cleanup rejects and a concurrent second cancellation still results in one finalization and a reset.

Security Boundaries row: the unpinned guardedWrite.ts in this diff is a copy that the merge order replaces

This PR's diff contains 7caa64fb3 for src/core/tools/guardedWrite.ts - this unit's own copy, which carries no publish pin. Its guarded publishes are guardedWrite.ts:195 and :276, each calling safeWriteText with the caller-visible path only.

The pin is not this unit's content. It ships in U5 (#1914), whose guardedWrite.ts (blob 2f876e115) is the only copy in the chain that resolves and authorizes the publish target and hands the result to the publish primitive:

• verifyTarget?: () => Promise<AuthorizedTarget> — guardedWrite.ts:158, :243
• expectedResolvedPath / expectedAncestorIdentities passed to safeWriteText — guardedWrite.ts:182-183, :279-280
• the authorize-and-pin helper, its type and the pin variable — guardedWrite.ts:362-370, :421, :531-532
• tests: guardedWrite.spec.ts:349 (authorizes a create under an aliased ancestor and pins the publish's own spelling), :439 (pins the identity of every existing directory between the workspace root and the target), :465 (refuses the publish when an authorized parent directory is swapped after the containment check), :289/:323 (escape and dangling-link refusals).

Evidence that this branch never had the pin: git log -S expectedResolvedPath -- src/core/tools/guardedWrite.ts returns no commit in this branch. U7's own pin work is in src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts and src/utils/safeWriteJson.ts (see note 3 on #41).

Declared merge order U1 U2 U3 U4 U5 U8 U6 U7 U9 merges #1914 before this PR, and merge note 4 on #41 (easonLiangWorldedtech#41 (comment)) records the rule: resolve src/core/tools/guardedWrite.ts to U5's pinned version, then re-apply this unit's own call-site changes on top. After that resolution this unit's guarded-publish call sites are covered by the pin and its ancestor re-validation.

We are not porting U5's file into this branch: that would put another unit's content into this diff, which is the shape the Out-of-Scope check penalises. The visible cost is that this pre-merge row stays red until #1914 lands - stated in note 4 so it is not mistaken for an unfixed defect.

Learning: In src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts, the TypeScript safeWriteText API intentionally requires confirmed directory-entry durability for a successful POSIX return. Directory-open or directory-fsync failures, including EINVAL, ENOTSUP, EISDIR, and EPERM, must produce PostCommitDurabilityError after the commit rather than be ignored. The error identifies the target containing the committed content. When backup mode is enabled, retaining the old-content backup on this failure path is intentional recovery behavior; do not recommend deleting it merely because the commit rename succeeded.

Learning: In Zoo-Code-Org/Zoo-Code, the TypeScript guardedWrite API in src/core/tools/guardedWrite.ts keeps core host-agnostic: extension-host callers supply other VS Code workspace folders through GuardedWriteOptions.additionalRoots. GuardedWriteOptions.approvedOutsideWorkspace represents a post-approval authorization, not path classification. ApplyDiffTool in src/core/tools/ApplyDiffTool.ts has no outside-workspace approval flow, so it must not receive that authorization merely because its target is outside the workspace.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Route the non-focus-disruption move through the write guard.

When PREVENT_FOCUS_DISRUPTION is disabled, a patch move reaches fs.writeFile(moveAbsolutePath, newContent) instead of the guarded destination save used in the other branch. If the destination exists or changes after approval, this path overwrites it without the create guard's observation and version checks. Use the guarded publish for both branches before deleting the source.

As per path instructions, check “enforcement at execution time—not only at presentation or planning time.”

Use an atomic no-replace publish for creates.

createIfAbsent checks for ENOENT, then calls safeWriteText. safeWriteText commits with fs.rename, which replaces an existing destination. A process that creates the path after the check can therefore lose its file. The shared lock only coordinates writers that participate in that lock protocol. Use an atomic no-replace operation for this create path.

📓 Common learnings

Learnt from: easonLiangWorldedtech
Repo: Zoo-Code-Org/Zoo-Code PR: 1918
File: src/core/tools/guardedWrite.ts:330-344
Timestamp: 2026-10-08T09:56:55.708Z
Learning: In Zoo-Code-Org/Zoo-Code, the TypeScript guardedWrite API in src/core/tools/guardedWrite.ts keeps core host-agnostic: extension-host callers supply other VS Code workspace folders through GuardedWriteOptions.additionalRoots. GuardedWriteOptions.approvedOutsideWorkspace represents a post-approval authorization, not path classification. ApplyDiffTool in src/core/tools/ApplyDiffTool.ts has no outside-workspace approval flow, so it must not receive that authorization merely because its target is outside the workspace.

[easonLiangWorldedtech]

Fixed in 8f38562. The Security row pointed at the approved outside-workspace branch of guardedWrite (guardedWrite.ts:480-510 at the previous head): the identity re-check seeded its own baseline with if (authorizedTarget === undefined) authorizedTarget = resolved, and every lookup the guard performs runs AFTER the approval. A name repointed between the approval and the publish was therefore captured as the baseline, and the write was published to whatever the name pointed at by then - a different file from the one the user approved.

How it is bound now

• GuardedWriteOptions.approvedCanonicalTarget carries the canonical identity of the target. For an approved outside-workspace write it is required: a missing capture is refused (The approved target was not captured before approval...) rather than falling back to a lookup the guard performs itself.
• canonicalizeForApproval() is exported (it is the existing realpathNearest, no new resolution logic) so the tool layer can capture the identity.
• verifyTarget() only compares: authorizedTarget is seeded exclusively from the caller's value.
• Capture points: the five write tools (WriteToFileTool, EditTool, EditFileTool, SearchReplaceTool, ApplyPatchTool) capture right after classifying the path and BEFORE askApproval - 7 capture sites, threaded at 12 save sites. DiffViewProvider.saveChanges/saveDirectly carry one extra parameter into the guardedWrite options. ApplyPatchTool's move destination binds its identity at classification time, which is where the patch-level approval for that destination is decided.

Tests and negative controls (measured in this harness, identical in both units)

• New: a name repointed at a link before the guard ran is refused (every lookup sees the swapped identity, so any lookup-derived baseline would accept it); an approved write with no captured identity is refused.
• NC1 identity comparison dropped -> 2 failed. NC2 baseline taken from the post-approval lookup with the caller capture dropped -> 1 failed. NC3 missing capture accepted -> 1 failed. Restores byte-identical.
• Note on NC2: adding authorizedTarget ??= resolved alone left all 64 tests green - an equivalent mutant, because the caller already seeds the value. A negative control has to remove the side that makes the fix necessary.
• Baselines: 352 passed / 5 skipped across the nine affected specs; tsc at its pre-existing 50-error baseline; eslint --max-warnings=0 clean with src/eslint-suppressions.json untouched.

Mutation gate, stated separately from the quality question

• The delta is small: the gate measured extension (53 lines) changed executable lines, far below the 500 cap.
• The local preflight could not complete on Windows: scripts/stryker-diff.mjs spawns <root>/node_modules/.bin/vitest (:349, :364) and .bin/stryker (:412), and spawnSync cannot execute those extensionless shims on Windows (ENOENT). The same shim layout exists in a full main-checkout install, so this is a tooling limitation, not a missing dependency, and not a quality gap in this change. The script was deliberately left untouched.
• The mutation-diff check was already completed/failure on the previous head of this PR, so it is not introduced by these commits.

[easonLiangWorldedtech]

Fixed in 549f0c7. The Lifecycle / resource-cleanup row was right: runTeardown() released its guard as soon as the CLEANUP CALLBACK settled, while the owner of that pass still had finalization steps left - the preview-tab restore, and reset() in revertChanges(). A cancellation landing in that window saw no teardown in flight and started a second pass: the document was reverted again, the same tabs were closed again, and the tabs were restored and the provider reset twice.

How it is fixed

• runTeardown(cleanup, finalize?) now installs a gate promise as teardownInFlight (not the cleanup promise), awaits cleanup() and then finalize?(), and only then clears the guard and releases the gate. A caller that lands at any point in the pass waits for the whole pass instead of joining only its first half.
• The two call sites that had post-callback steps - the saveChanges() error path and revertChanges() - pass their tail into that new argument. The post-publish cleanup site already kept every step inside its callback and was left unchanged.
• Scope stayed at the three places involved: runTeardown, the two call sites, one new test. No other cleanup behaviour was touched.

Test, written before the fix

• revertChanges() holds the teardown through its finalization steps, not just the cleanup callback: the finalization is held on a gate, and the test polls until the owner is INSIDE the finalization (the restore has been called and is awaiting the gate) before firing a second revertChanges(). It asserts applyEdit, closeAllDiffViews, restorePreviewTabs and reset each ran exactly once.
• Run against the unfixed code first: it failed with applyEdit called 2 times, so the defect is on the record rather than inferred from reading the code.

Negative controls (measured in this harness, identical in both units)

• NC-A: release the guard as soon as the cleanup callback settles (the previous shape) -> 1 failed, applyEdit 2 times.
• NC-B: do not await the finalization inside the guard (void finalize()) -> 1 failed, applyEdit 2 times.
• Restores byte-identical.
• Baselines after the sweep: 353 passed / 5 skipped across the nine affected specs (143 in DiffViewProvider.spec alone); tsc at its pre-existing 50-error baseline; eslint --max-warnings=0 clean on both touched files; src/eslint-suppressions.json untouched.

No inline thread existed for this row (the previous head's threads went away with its review), so the write-up is here.

src/core/tools/ApplyPatchTool.ts:536-540
🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

The diff-view move path still writes the destination without the guard.

When preventFocusDisruption is off, a *** Move to: patch writes the destination with fs.mkdir and fs.writeFile (Lines 537-539). This path does not call guardedWrite. The isPreventFocusDisruptionEnabled branch above now publishes the same destination with saveDirectly(..., "create", sourceComplete, ...). That branch rejects an existing destination that the model never read. It also carries the source completeness and checks for a stale version.

The two save modes therefore enforce different rules for the same patch. Trigger: the destination exists and the model has not read it. The model sends a move patch, the user approves it, and diff view is active. Consequence: the existing destination is overwritten without a read. No stale-version check and no per-path serialization run. This conflicts with the PR objective, which says apply_patch routes its writes through the shared guarded-write path. The ensure-observed and partial-source checks at Lines 485-522 also run only in the focus-disruption branch.

Route both branches through one guarded publish. Move the completeness carry and destination checks out of the if. Then call saveDirectly for the destination in both modes. That call already passes additionalRoots and the create guard.

Proposed fix

-			// Save new content to the new path
-			if (isPreventFocusDisruptionEnabled) {
-				const sourceObs = task.observationRegistry.get(absolutePath)
-				...
-				await task.diffViewProvider.saveDirectly(
-					change.movePath,
-					newContent,
-					false,
-					diagnosticsEnabled,
-					writeDelayMs,
-					"create",
-					sourceComplete,
-					isPathOutsideWorkspace(moveAbsolutePath),
-					moveCanonicalTarget,
-				)
-			} else {
-				// Write to new path and delete old file
-				const parentDir = path.dirname(moveAbsolutePath)
-				await fs.mkdir(parentDir, { recursive: true })
-				await fs.writeFile(moveAbsolutePath, newContent, "utf8")
-			}
+			// Both save modes publish the destination through the guard.
+			const sourceObs = task.observationRegistry.get(absolutePath)
+			// ...existing completeness carry / destination checks, unchanged...
+			if (!isPreventFocusDisruptionEnabled) {
+				// Close the source preview opened above before publishing elsewhere.
+				await task.diffViewProvider.revertChanges()
+			}
+			await task.diffViewProvider.saveDirectly(
+				change.movePath,
+				newContent,
+				false,
+				diagnosticsEnabled,
+				writeDelayMs,
+				"create",
+				sourceComplete,
+				isPathOutsideWorkspace(moveAbsolutePath),
+				moveCanonicalTarget,
+			)

Add a diff-view move test. The test sets a destination that exists without an observation. It then asserts that the publish is rejected and that fs.writeFile is not called.

Timestamp: 2026-10-06T00:19:25.595Z
Learning: In src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts, the TypeScript safeWriteText API intentionally requires confirmed directory-entry durability for a successful POSIX return. Directory-open or directory-fsync failures, including EINVAL, ENOTSUP, EISDIR, and EPERM, must produce PostCommitDurabilityError after the commit rather than be ignored. The error identifies the target containing the committed content. When backup mode is enabled, retaining the old-content backup on this failure path is intentional recovery behavior; do not recommend deleting it merely because the commit rename succeeded.

Timestamp: 2026-10-06T00:19:38.801Z
Learning: In the TypeScript Windows write path in `src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts`, DACL preservation is intentionally best-effort. `_saveDaclWindows` failure must not prevent publication, because `icacls` can fail on non-NTFS mounts or in permission-restricted environments. `_restoreDaclWindows` failure is non-fatal after commit. Do not require fatal DACL handling or rollback of committed content under this contract.

Timestamp: 2026-10-08T09:38:50.043Z
Learning: In Zoo-Code-Org/Zoo-Code, Task.cwd identifies one workspace root, while write tools use isPathOutsideWorkspace(absolutePath) to classify paths against all VS Code workspace folders. A target in another workspace folder can therefore be outside Task.cwd while isPathOutsideWorkspace returns false. Write authorization must distinguish this case from an explicitly approved path outside all workspace folders.

Timestamp: 2026-10-06T00:19:36.133Z
Learning: In Zoo-Code, DiffViewProvider.open in src/integrations/editor/DiffViewProvider.ts intentionally records a stat-matched preview observation with complete: false for an unread existing file. The edit guard accepts this partial observation; this policy is documented and asserted. Do not treat that acceptance alone as an unintended authorization bypass. The separate question of whether the preview token is a valid baseline for previously constructed edit content requires a cross-unit maintainer decision.

Timestamp: 2026-10-08T09:56:55.708Z
Learning: In Zoo-Code-Org/Zoo-Code, the TypeScript guardedWrite API in src/core/tools/guardedWrite.ts keeps core host-agnostic: extension-host callers supply other VS Code workspace folders through GuardedWriteOptions.additionalRoots. GuardedWriteOptions.approvedOutsideWorkspace represents a post-approval authorization, not path classification. ApplyDiffTool in src/core/tools/ApplyDiffTool.ts has no outside-workspace approval flow, so it must not receive that authorization merely because its target is outside the workspace.

src/services/file-safety/safeWriteText.ts (2)

123-151: Add a timeout to the icacls save and restore calls.

A previous review asked for this, and the current code still does not do it. Neither execFile call sets a timeout. On Windows, safeWriteJson waits for both calls while it holds the advisory file lock. If one icacls child process stalls, this write blocks, and so does every other writer of the same file. DACL handling is best-effort, so a timeout would just return false and use the existing warning path. Passing timeout in the options object is enough.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

The dangling-link test actually runs the link-cycle path.

mockResolvedValue("referent.json") makes every readlink call return "referent.json", including the call on the resolved key. The walk therefore never reaches the normal exit (target === undefined). Instead it loops 8 times and returns through the depth limit. That is the same path as the two-link-cycle test at Lines 1228-1240.

The comment "Only the link path is read" is false: readlink is called 8 times. If the single-hop exit in resolveLockKey broke, this test would still pass. Return the referent once, then reject the way a non-link readlink does, and assert the call count.

Proposed fix

-		vi.mocked(fs.readlink).mockResolvedValue("referent.json")
+		vi.mocked(fs.readlink)
+			.mockResolvedValueOnce("referent.json")
+			.mockRejectedValue(Object.assign(new Error("EINVAL"), { code: "EINVAL" }))
@@
 		await expect(resolveLockKey("/tmp/linkdir/file.json")).resolves.toBe(
 			path.resolve(path.join("/tmp/linkdir", "referent.json")),
 		)
+		// One hop, then the referent is not a link: the walk ends normally, not at the bound.
+		expect(fs.readlink).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(2)

As per path instructions: "Require regression coverage at the lowest valid harness with behavior-focused assertions."

around lines 1213 - 1226:
Update the dangling-link test around resolveLockKey so fs.readlink returns the
referent only on its first call, then rejects for the non-link referent; assert
that it is called exactly twice to verify the walk exits normally after one hop
rather than reaching the depth limit.
