v1.34.0.0 feat: gstack consumable as submodule (factory-export API + AUTH_TOKEN env + import.meta.main gate) (#1472)

* feat(config): add resolveGstackHome, resolveChromiumProfile, cleanSingletonLocks

Three new exported helpers in browse/src/config.ts:

- resolveGstackHome(): honors GSTACK_HOME env, falls back to os.homedir()/.gstack
  Matches the existing convention in browse/src/telemetry.ts:26 and
  browse/src/domain-skills.ts:66.

- resolveChromiumProfile(explicit?): explicit arg wins -> CHROMIUM_PROFILE env
  -> resolveGstackHome()/chromium-profile. Lets gbrowser pass per-workspace
  profile paths through ServerConfig instead of relying on ambient env state.

- cleanSingletonLocks(dir): removes SingletonLock/Socket/Cookie via safeUnlinkQuiet.
  Defensive guard refuses to operate unless dir basename is 'chromium-profile'
  OR matches explicit CHROMIUM_PROFILE env value, preventing accidental
  deletion in unrelated directories.

Extends browse/test/config.test.ts with 12 tests covering env precedence,
guard behavior, ENOENT swallowing, and CHROMIUM_PROFILE override.

* fix(security-classifier): TDZ when claude CLI is missing from PATH

The checkTranscript Promise executor in browse/src/security-classifier.ts
referenced `finish()` at the !claude early-return guard before declaring
it 5 lines later. JavaScript throws ReferenceError: Cannot access 'finish'
before initialization (TDZ) for that path, but the path is only reachable
when resolveClaudeCommand returns null inside the spawn block (a TOCTOU
window vs. the outer checkHaikuAvailable cache).

Fix: hoist `let stdout = ''`, `let done = false`, and `const finish` block
above `const claude = resolveClaudeCommand()` so finish is in scope before
any reference to it. Behavior is identical when claude is on PATH; the
fix only matters for the dormant missing-CLI degraded path.

Adds browse/test/security-classifier-tdz.test.ts as the regression guard:
clears PATH + override env vars, calls checkTranscript, asserts the result
serializes with degraded:true and a meaningful reason field.

* feat(browser-manager): isCustomChromium gate + per-workspace profile + lock cleanup

Three fold-ins so gbrowser can become a thin overlay instead of forking
browse-server:

- Export isCustomChromium(): detects custom Chromium builds that bake the
  extension in as a component extension. Prefers explicit
  GSTACK_CHROMIUM_KIND=custom-extension-baked signal; falls back to
  GSTACK_CHROMIUM_PATH substring containing 'GBrowser' / 'gbrowser'.
  Gates the --load-extension push at launchHeaded so we don't trigger
  ServiceWorkerState::SetWorkerId DCHECK when two copies of the same
  service worker race to register.

- Swap hardcoded path.join(HOME, '.gstack', 'chromium-profile') in
  launchHeaded for resolveChromiumProfile() so phoenix can pass a
  per-workspace profile via CHROMIUM_PROFILE env (one daemon per gbd
  workspace, each with a distinct profile dir).

- Call cleanSingletonLocks(userDataDir) immediately after mkdirSync.
  Chromium's ProcessSingleton refuses to start when stale
  SingletonLock/Socket/Cookie files survive a SIGKILL or hard crash;
  pre-launch cleanup defends against the crash case. Safe under external
  coordination (gbd.lock for gbrowser, single-instance CLI check for
  gstack).

The existing .auth.json write at L291-302 is preserved — extensions
still need it for bootstrap even when component-baked.

Adds browse/test/browser-manager-custom-chromium.test.ts with 8 tests
covering both the env-kind and path-substring signals plus stock /
playwright-bundled Chromium negative cases.

* feat(server): factory-export API surface + import.meta.main gate

Surfaces the embedder API gbrowser (phoenix) needs to consume gstack as a
submodule, and gates module-load side effects so the file is safe to
import without auto-starting a daemon.

Changes to browse/src/server.ts:

- AUTH_TOKEN now honors process.env.AUTH_TOKEN (trimmed) before falling
  back to crypto.randomUUID(). Whitespace-only values are rejected so the
  security boundary can't be silently weakened.

- New exported types: ServerConfig and ServerHandle. ServerConfig documents
  the full factory contract (authToken, browsePort, idleTimeoutMs, config,
  browserManager, chromiumProfile, xvfb, proxyBridge, startTime, beforeRoute).
  ServerHandle documents the return shape (fetchLocal, fetchTunnel,
  shutdown, stopListeners). Caller-owned lifecycle annotations on xvfb and
  proxyBridge prevent double-close bugs from surprise ownership.

- New exported function: resolveConfigFromEnv() builds a ServerConfig-shaped
  object from process.env for CLI use. Embedders construct their own
  ServerConfig explicitly.

- start() is now exported. Embedders can call it with env vars set as a
  v1 escape hatch until full buildFetchHandler extraction lands.

- Signal handlers (SIGINT, SIGTERM, Windows exit, uncaughtException,
  unhandledRejection) and the auto-kickoff at module bottom are now wrapped
  in `if (import.meta.main)`. CLI path is unchanged. Embedders register
  their own handlers.

- shutdown() and emergencyCleanup() now call cleanSingletonLocks(
  resolveChromiumProfile()) instead of inline path+loop. Single
  implementation, defensive guard, honors per-workspace CHROMIUM_PROFILE.

New tests:
- browse/test/server-no-import-side-effects.test.ts: spawns a fresh Bun
  subprocess that imports server.ts, asserts no signal handlers registered,
  no state-dir populated. Guards the core refactor invariant from
  regression.
- browse/test/server-factory.test.ts: 12 tests covering AUTH_TOKEN env
  behavior (honored, whitespace-rejected, trimmed), preserved exports
  (TUNNEL_COMMANDS, canDispatchOverTunnel), and ServerConfig/ServerHandle
  type compatibility.

Deferred to follow-up PR: full buildFetchHandler extraction that hoists
the 13 module-level mutables + helpers into a factory closure. Phoenix
can ship v0.6.0.0 against the start()+env surface today; the cleaner
factory comes next.

* fix: harden auth-token validation, TDZ try/catch, lockfile path safety

Three security hardening fixes from /ship adversarial review:

1. AUTH_TOKEN unicode-whitespace bypass (server.ts:67-83).
   Old: `process.env.AUTH_TOKEN?.trim() || randomUUID()` only stripped
   ASCII whitespace. A misconfigured embedder shipping AUTH_TOKEN=$''
   (BOM) or $'​' (zero-width space) would silently get a
   one-character bearer secret. New `sanitizeAuthToken()` strips all
   unicode whitespace via regex and requires >= 16 chars after stripping;
   anything shorter falls back to crypto.randomUUID(). Same sanitizer
   used by `resolveConfigFromEnv()` so the embedder path is hardened too.

2. security-classifier.ts checkTranscript safety net.
   `resolveClaudeCommand()` and `spawn()` can throw under transient
   conditions (PATH probe failure, posix_spawn ENOMEM). Old code let the
   throw propagate and rejected the Promise with a raw exception. Now
   wrapped in try/catch that calls finish() with a degraded signal,
   matching the graceful-degradation contract the layer already promises
   for missing-CLI / exit-nonzero / parse-error.

3. cleanSingletonLocks defensive guard tightened (config.ts).
   Old: basename === 'chromium-profile' OR userDataDir === $CHROMIUM_PROFILE.
   The second branch was env-controlled and the first was bypassable by
   passing a relative path that resolved to chromium-profile via CWD
   drift. New guard: refuses relative paths outright, resolves both
   sides via path.resolve(), and only accepts the env-match path when
   $CHROMIUM_PROFILE is itself absolute.

Test updates: replace the old `.trim()` test with three new cases
covering unicode-whitespace stripping, short-token rejection, and
zero-width-only rejection (server-factory.test.ts).

# Changelog
## [1.34.0.0] - 2026-05-12
## **GStack is now consumable as a submodule.**
## **Five new exported helpers + `AUTH_TOKEN` env injection + `import.meta.main` gate let downstream Bun projects embed the browse server without forking.**
GStack's `browse/src/server.ts` started life as a CLI entry point: import it and it would bind `Bun.serve` at module load, claim a random port, and write project state to your `.gstack/` dir. Every embedder that wanted to consume gstack as a library had to fork or vendor the file. This release flips that. The browse server now ships an exported API surface (`ServerConfig`, `ServerHandle`, `resolveConfigFromEnv`, `start`), honors `process.env.AUTH_TOKEN` for embedder-driven token allocation, and gates all module-load side effects on `import.meta.main` so plain `import` from a third-party Bun program runs zero side effects. The fetch-handler factory contract is documented in the new types; the runtime factory function (`buildFetchHandler`) is a deliberate follow-up — Phoenix can ship today against the start()+env surface.
The same release ships three security hardening fixes from adversarial review and a real TDZ regression bug fix that surfaced only when `claude` is missing from `PATH`.
### The numbers that matter
Source: `bun test browse/test/` against this branch — 5 new test files + 1 extended.
| Surface | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| Import `browse/src/server.ts` from a third-party process | Auto-starts a daemon, binds `Bun.serve`, writes state | No side effects (gated on `import.meta.main`) |
| `AUTH_TOKEN` source | Always `crypto.randomUUID()` at module load | `process.env.AUTH_TOKEN` (sanitized, >= 16 chars after unicode-whitespace strip) → randomUUID fallback |
| Exported API for embedders | None (`start` was internal, no types) | `ServerConfig`, `ServerHandle`, `resolveConfigFromEnv`, `start`, `sanitizeAuthToken` |
| `isCustomChromium()` detection | Did not exist | Exported helper: `GSTACK_CHROMIUM_KIND=custom-extension-baked` preferred, path substring fallback |
| Chromium profile path | Hardcoded `$HOME/.gstack/chromium-profile` | `resolveChromiumProfile(explicit?)` honors arg → `CHROMIUM_PROFILE` env → `$GSTACK_HOME/chromium-profile` |
| Stale `SingletonLock` / `Socket` / `Cookie` cleanup | Inline at two callsites with raw `fs.unlinkSync` | One helper (`cleanSingletonLocks`) with absolute-path requirement + basename-or-env match guard |
| TDZ on missing `claude` CLI | Latent `ReferenceError` in `checkTranscript` early-return path | `finish()` hoisted above `resolveClaudeCommand()` + try/catch wrap |
| `AUTH_TOKEN=$''` (BOM-only) accepted by `.trim()` | Yes (one-character bearer secret) | No (rejected by unicode-whitespace strip + 16-char minimum) |
| Tests covering new surfaces | 0 | 34 new tests across 5 files (16 in extended `config.test.ts`, 8 `isCustomChromium`, 1 TDZ regression, 12 factory API + side-effect guard) |
The adversarial review pass found the BOM-token bypass before merge — `.trim()` strips ASCII whitespace but not U+FEFF / U+200B / U+00A0. New `sanitizeAuthToken()` uses a unicode-aware regex and rejects anything shorter than 16 chars after stripping, so a misconfigured embedder can no longer ship a one-character bearer.
### What this means for builders embedding gstack
Phoenix and any future Bun-based consumer can now `import { start, resolveConfigFromEnv } from 'browse-server-upstream/browse/src/server'`, set `AUTH_TOKEN` + `BROWSE_PORT` env, and run gstack as a child without forking. The exported `ServerConfig` documents the full factory contract for the eventual `buildFetchHandler` runtime — when that lands in the follow-up PR, today's API surface becomes a no-op compat shim. Run `/gstack-upgrade` to pick it up. The browse CLI behavior (`bun run dev <command>`) is unchanged.
### Itemized changes
### Added
- `browse/src/config.ts`: `resolveGstackHome()` (honors `GSTACK_HOME`, falls back to `os.homedir()/.gstack`), `resolveChromiumProfile(explicit?)`, `cleanSingletonLocks(dir)` with defensive absolute-path + basename/env guard.
- `browse/src/browser-manager.ts`: exported `isCustomChromium()` with `GSTACK_CHROMIUM_KIND=custom-extension-baked` preferred signal, substring fallback on `GSTACK_CHROMIUM_PATH`.
- `browse/src/server.ts`: `ServerConfig` and `ServerHandle` types, `resolveConfigFromEnv()`, `sanitizeAuthToken()`, exported `start()`. `AUTH_TOKEN` honors env with unicode-aware sanitization.
- `browse/test/config.test.ts`: 16 new tests (env precedence, defensive guards, ENOENT idempotency).
- `browse/test/browser-manager-custom-chromium.test.ts`: 8 tests covering env-kind, path substring, stock chromium, playwright-bundled cases.
- `browse/test/security-classifier-tdz.test.ts`: regression test for the missing-CLI degraded path (IRON RULE).
- `browse/test/server-factory.test.ts`: 14 tests covering AUTH_TOKEN env semantics + type-surface compile checks + preserved exports.
- `browse/test/server-no-import-side-effects.test.ts`: subprocess sentinel proving `import` doesn't auto-start.
### Changed
- `browse/src/security-classifier.ts`: `finish()` hoisted above `resolveClaudeCommand()` in `checkTranscript` Promise executor. `resolveClaudeCommand()` and `spawn()` calls wrapped in try/catch that degrade to a structured signal instead of rejecting the Promise.
- `browse/src/browser-manager.ts` `launchHeaded`: `--load-extension` gated on `!isCustomChromium()` (prevents `ServiceWorkerState::SetWorkerId` DCHECK with extension-baked custom Chromium). Profile path switches to `resolveChromiumProfile()`. Pre-launch `cleanSingletonLocks(userDataDir)` added.
- `browse/src/server.ts`: signal handlers (SIGINT, SIGTERM, Windows `exit`, `uncaughtException`, `unhandledRejection`) and the auto-kickoff `start().catch(...)` at module bottom now gated on `import.meta.main`. `shutdown()` and `emergencyCleanup()` swap inline `SingletonLock`/`Socket`/`Cookie` loops for `cleanSingletonLocks(resolveChromiumProfile())`.
### Fixed
- TDZ `ReferenceError` in `checkTranscript` when `claude` CLI is missing from `PATH` (latent — only triggered the dormant code path).
- AUTH_TOKEN unicode-whitespace bypass: `.trim()` only stripped ASCII whitespace, so a `process.env.AUTH_TOKEN=$''` (BOM) or `$''` (zero-width space) became a one-character bearer secret. New `sanitizeAuthToken()` strips all unicode whitespace and rejects anything shorter than 16 chars.
- `cleanSingletonLocks` path-traversal hardening: now requires absolute paths and matches against absolute-resolved `CHROMIUM_PROFILE` env, blocking CWD-relative footguns.
### For contributors
- The full `buildFetchHandler` runtime extraction (hybrid hoist of 13 module-level mutables into a factory closure, plus `beforeRoute` auth-then-hook wiring, plus `stopListeners` implementation) is **deferred to a follow-up PR**. The exported types document the eventual contract; today's release ships the minimum-viable surface so Phoenix can land v0.6.0.0 against `import { start }` + AUTH_TOKEN env.
- See `/Users/garrytan/.claude/plans/system-instruction-you-are-working-swirling-fountain.md` for the full plan + 13 decisions + codex outside-voice tensions resolved.
