Remove REA permission grants, scope ceilings, approval confirmations, and inert settings. Preserve selected local evidence, accept caller-chosen commands and paths, and report actual runtime failures. Harden provider results, schema serialization, snapshot evidence binding, archive paths, source maps, native screenshots, managed EH parsing, and cancellation cleanup. Regenerate tool metadata and document direct invocation. BREAKING CHANGE: Removed permission configuration and policy commands, approval fields, filesystem scope inputs, and fixed confirmation options. Process capture inherits the host environment and accepts command names; callers must refresh tool schemas and migrate removed fields.

# Controlled JavaScript replay
|
|
|
|
`run_controlled_replay` executes only the extracted modules named in the request. It
|
|
does not launch or drive the original application. Static inference, passive
|
|
browser/Electron observation, isolated replay, and real application behavior
|
|
remain different authorities.
|
|
|
|
## Host prerequisites
|
|
|
|
Replay requires the current Node.js runtime,
|
|
`/usr/bin/bwrap`, `/usr/bin/systemd-run`, `/usr/bin/systemctl`, and
|
|
`/usr/bin/bash`. Override executable paths only with the corresponding
|
|
`REA_JAVASCRIPT_REPLAY_*_PATH` variable. Configuration creates the
|
|
runtime configuration; REA setup never installs these host components. Check
|
|
availability with `rea doctor`, which reports exact sandbox-probe failures
|
|
without running module code.
|
|
|
|
## Plan, review, execute
|
|
|
|
Call the same CLI command or MCP tool twice. The first request uses
|
|
`mode: "plan"`. Its response commits module paths and digests, closed dependency
|
|
aliases, cases, deterministic providers, runtime/backend identities, resource
|
|
limits, no-network policy, private filesystems, and a `plan_digest`.
|
|
Runtime commitments include the exact worker, seccomp filter, Node executable,
|
|
ELF loader, and shared-library source/destination paths and SHA-256 digests.
|
|
|
|
The execute request repeats the same manifest and includes the exact digest
|
|
returned by the plan request:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"mode": "execute",
|
|
"plan_digest": "<exact digest returned by plan>"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The execute request directly selects that content-bound operation. There is no
|
|
separate REA grant or approval field.
|
|
|
|
REA rebuilds the plan. Any changed module, stub, case, runtime, backend, limit,
|
|
or export commitment returns `plan_stale` before worker admission.
|
|
|
|
Modules use `esm` or `commonjs-factory`. The latter accepts extracted Rspack
|
|
factory syntax such as `123(module, exports, require) { ... }` and implements
|
|
the bounded `require.d`, `require.r`, `require.n`, and `require.nmd` helpers.
|
|
Every import or require must map to a declared alias. There is no ambient
|
|
package resolution.
|
|
|
|
Explicit cases can be combined with deterministic `parser-boundaries`,
|
|
`sanitizer-boundaries`, or `clipboard-boundaries` generation. Supplying a
|
|
`right` manifest runs both sides with fresh realms per case and reports
|
|
`equal`, `changed`, or `unknown` comparisons.
|
|
|
|
## Boundary and Evidence
|
|
|
|
The worker receives module bytes over bounded stdin and runs under a fresh
|
|
Bubblewrap user/PID/network/IPC/UTS namespace, an architecture-checked seccomp
|
|
filter, an empty mount root with a descriptor-backed read-only Node closure,
|
|
private tmpfs, and a transient systemd user cgroup. Host and external network,
|
|
host writes, process spawning, workers, native addons, inspector access, and
|
|
ambient environment are unavailable. Wall time, memory, swap, tasks, CPU,
|
|
case input, worker-protocol input, output, stderr, depth, and node counts are
|
|
independently bounded. The parent also requires an exact worker response shape
|
|
and authenticates every returned case ID, order, and input digest. Values are
|
|
projected through own data descriptors only; Proxy values and accessors are
|
|
rejected without invoking their traps or getters.
|
|
|
|
Returns, exceptions, serialization failures, denials, timeouts, OOMs, crashes,
|
|
protocol failures, and cleanup state are observations with provider
|
|
`rea-javascript-replay` and authority `controlled-replay`. An observation does
|
|
not prove that the original renderer, preload, main process, browser, or remote
|
|
service behaved identically.
|
|
|
|
Each left/right run is retained as its own `observed` source Evidence. A
|
|
differential envelope is `derived` and links those source Evidence IDs, so the
|
|
comparison never erases the underlying observations.
|
|
|
|
Optional `reproducer_export` is committed by the plan and writes to its
|
|
caller-supplied path after the sandbox has stopped.
|
|
The owner-only manifest is written only after complete sandbox cleanup. Source
|
|
bytes are excluded unless `include_sources: true` was selected in the request.
|
|
An export failure is retained in the result and does not erase a completed
|
|
replay observation.
|
|
|
|
## Local real-artifact verification
|
|
|
|
`npm run verify:replay` uses source-owned parser and hostile fixtures. An
|
|
operator can additionally supply a local ESM or Rspack/CommonJS-factory
|
|
manifest without copying module source into the repository:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
REA_REPLAY_INPUT_PATH=/absolute/replay-manifest.json npm run verify:replay
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The verifier canonicalizes the manifest's module paths and prints only plan,
|
|
module, and Evidence digests, case/comparison summaries, and cleanup state.
|
|
This is the intended seam for local Notion-like parser/sanitizer benchmarks.
