Three findings, all real. The first is a security hole introduced by round 1's own fix. 1. The analysis job could have published live secrets. Round 1 pinned `Bash(gh issue comment <N>:*)` to the tracked issue and treated that as scoping, but a `Bash(...)` grant matches a command PREFIX and says nothing about the flags that follow — so `gh issue comment <N> --body-file /proc/self/environ` matched it, and this job's subprocess environment holds ANTHROPIC_API_KEY and GITHUB_TOKEN. A prompt injection from upstream release notes could have posted live credentials into a public issue. The model now has no tool that can write anywhere. It returns its write-up as `--json-schema` structured output, and a deterministic, model-free step posts it: the body arrives through the environment rather than the command line, so nothing in it can be read as a flag or a path, and the issue number comes from the matrix. That step is the only thing in the job holding a token that can write. WebFetch is denied as well. It was not raised, but with `Read` available an outbound fetch the model controls is the same exfiltration channel by another route; `gh release view` already covered the need. The remaining grant is read-only and accepts no attacker-chosen file path. The general rule is now in AGENTS.md rather than only this instance: a prefix grant on any command that accepts a file path is an arbitrary-file read with a publish attached. 2. Issue existence was standing in for analysis completion. A failed or timed-out `analyze` job left an issue the next sweep matched, emitted `[]` for, and reported as a green no-op — so the promised analysis was never retried. The posting step now stamps ANALYSIS_MARKER on its comment, and a sweep finding an existing issue without one re-queues it. The marker is matched with `startsWith`, so a maintainer quoting it cannot suppress the retry. 3. A failed supersession note was unrecoverable. Creation succeeding and the note failing left a state where every retry matched the target's own marker and skipped reconciliation entirely, so the note was never posted. An existing issue is now ADOPTED rather than skipped: the loop takes its number and runs the same follow-up it would for a new one. The existing announced-marker check prevents duplication, and a `stale.number === number` guard stops an issue superseding itself. Findings 2 and 3 share one restructure — replacing the early `continue` with adoption is what gives both the retry path. ANALYSIS_MARKER is necessarily duplicated in the workflow, since the posting step is shell. Drift would be invisible from either file alone and would make every issue read as permanently unanalyzed, so a test asserts the workflow contains the exact constant. Mutation-checked, each failing a different minimal set: if (match) continue; restored -> supersession-retry + re-queue tests hasAnalysis -> always true -> re-queue + hasAnalysis tests workflow marker misspelled -> the drift-guard test 47 tests in this file; `npm run local:gate` green end to end.

# Nightly MCP SDK watch (#1063).
|
|
#
|
|
# Keeping up with SDK releases — the OAuth churn especially — had been a manual
|
|
# habit rather than a mechanism, which is what #1063 was filed to fix. This
|
|
# workflow is the mechanism, and it is the third of this repo's issue-filing
|
|
# sweeps, after the monthly `dependency-refresh.yml` (#2229) and the daily
|
|
# `dependabot-alerts.yml` (#2233):
|
|
#
|
|
# npm registry -> sweep -> issue -> Opus analysis comment -> maintainer PR -> v2/main
|
|
#
|
|
# Two jobs, and the split is load-bearing:
|
|
#
|
|
# * `sweep` is deterministic and cheap. It compares the `@modelcontextprotocol/*`
|
|
# packages installed on `v2/main` against the registry and files one tracking
|
|
# issue per upstream that is behind. It runs every night and is a complete
|
|
# no-op when nothing moved.
|
|
# * `analyze` is the "have Opus read the SDK changes" half of #1063. It runs
|
|
# ONLY over issues the sweep just created — never over one that already
|
|
# existed — which is what keeps it to exactly one analysis per SDK release
|
|
# rather than a near-identical comment every night for as long as the issue
|
|
# stays open.
|
|
#
|
|
# ⚠️ Why this files an issue and not a PR, and why it is NOT the Copilot coding
|
|
# agent that #1063's comment sketched. Assigning `copilot-swe-agent` is possible
|
|
# here (it is in `suggestedActors`), but two things rule it out. Its run produces
|
|
# a PULL REQUEST — the artifact carrying no `Closes #N` and no board card that
|
|
# #2229/#2233/#2235 removed from this repo — and its model cannot be selected
|
|
# programmatically at all: assignment goes through `replaceActorsForAssignable`,
|
|
# which takes no model parameter, and absent an admin-configured picker the agent
|
|
# runs Sonnet. `claude-code-action` has neither problem: it is told to post a
|
|
# COMMENT and nothing else, and `--model` says exactly which model runs.
|
|
#
|
|
# ⚠️ A scheduled workflow only ever runs from the DEFAULT branch (`main`), while
|
|
# we ship from `v2/main`. So this file does nothing until a milestone merge
|
|
# carries it to `main`, and both jobs check `v2/main` out explicitly rather than
|
|
# reading the branch they were launched from — the same shape both sibling
|
|
# sweeps use.
|
|
#
|
|
# Tokens: `GITHUB_TOKEN` is sufficient for the sweep (`issues: write` to file,
|
|
# plus public registry and milestone reads). `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` is an
|
|
# ORGANIZATION secret already available to this repo and is what `analyze` runs
|
|
# on. Board placement is deliberately not attempted by either job — that needs an
|
|
# org-project PAT no token in this org has — so a filed-but-unboarded issue is
|
|
# picked up by the next `/issue-triage` sweep, exactly as `dependency-refresh.yml`
|
|
# leaves it.

A new ${{ matrix.target.label }} release is out, and issue #${{ matrix.target.issue }}
|
|
in ${{ github.repository }} tracks upgrading to it. You are checked out on `v2/main`,
|
|
the branch this repo ships from.
|
|
|
|
Upstream: https://github.com/${{ matrix.target.repo }}
|
|
Installed here: ${{ matrix.target.from }}
|
|
New release: ${{ matrix.target.to }}
|
|
|
|
Work out what actually changed upstream between those two versions, and what — if
|
|
anything — this repository has to change to adopt it. Then post ONE comment on issue
|
|
#${{ matrix.target.issue }} with your findings.
|
|
|
|
How to go about it:
|
|
|
|
1. Read the upstream release notes and changelog for every version in the range, not
|
|
just the newest. `gh release list --repo ${{ matrix.target.repo }}` and
|
|
`gh release view` are the fastest route; the repo's CHANGELOG is a fallback.
|
|
2. Find how this repo actually uses the SDK. Nearly all of it is under `core/`
|
|
(`core/mcp/` for the client and transports, `core/auth/` for OAuth), with the
|
|
clients consuming it through the `@inspector/core` alias. `AGENTS.md` is the map.
|
|
3. Judge impact against THIS codebase, not in the abstract. A breaking change in an
|
|
API we never call is worth one line saying so; a quiet behavior change in one we
|
|
depend on is the finding that matters.
|
|
|
|
Write the comment as:
|
|
|
|
- **Verdict** — one sentence: is this a routine bump, or does it need real work?
|
|
- **What changed upstream** — the notable entries, with the version each landed in.
|
|
Say plainly if the release notes are thin or missing rather than inventing detail.
|
|
- **What it means here** — the specific files or areas that need attention, with
|
|
paths. Say "no changes needed" if that is the honest answer.
|
|
- **Risks and unknowns** — anything you could not determine. Do not paper over a gap.
|
|
|
|
Hard constraints:
|
|
|
|
- You do NOT post the comment yourself and have no tool that could. Return your write-up
|
|
as the `analysis` field of the structured output; a later, non-model step posts it
|
|
verbatim to issue #${{ matrix.target.issue }}. Do not add a footer — that step adds one.
|
|
- Markdown is expected in that field. Do not wrap it in a code fence.
|
|
- If you cannot determine what changed, say exactly that in the `analysis` field. A short
|
|
honest write-up is the correct output; a confident invented one is not.
|
|
# ⚠️ **The model is granted NOTHING that can write anywhere.** The tool
|
|
# grant is the only real control here — the prose constraints in the
|
|
# prompt are not, because this agent reads untrusted upstream text by
|
|
# design — and two earlier revisions of this list were both wrong:
|
|
#
|
|
# * `Bash(gh api:*)` against an `issues: write` token allowed
|
|
# arbitrary issue mutation (Copilot, round 1).
|
|
# * Pinning `Bash(gh issue comment <N>:*)` to this issue did NOT fix
|
|
# it, because the grant matches a command PREFIX and says nothing
|
|
# about the flags that follow: `gh issue comment <N> --body-file
|
|
# /proc/self/environ` matches, and this job's subprocess environment
|
|
# holds `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` and `GITHUB_TOKEN`. A prompt injection
|
|
# could have published live credentials into a public issue
|
|
# (Copilot, round 2). A prefix grant on a command that accepts a
|
|
# file path is an arbitrary-file read with a publish attached.
|
|
#
|
|
# So the model no longer posts anything. It returns its write-up as
|
|
# structured output and the deterministic step below posts it — that
|
|
# step runs no model, takes no path, and is the only thing here holding
|
|
# a token that can write. `WebFetch` is gone with it: release notes come
|
|
# from `gh release view`, and an outbound fetch the model controls is
|
|
# the other end of the same exfiltration channel.
|
|
#
|
|
# What remains is read-only and takes no attacker-chosen file path.
|
|
# `--disallowedTools` names the write tools anyway, so a later edit
|
|
# that widens the whitelist cannot silently restore them.
