@@ -18,7 +18,7 @@ Placement and policy rulings folded into this decision:
- **Not the `ctx.fs` seam.** `packages/fs/` is the model/session-facing storage stack (policy events, sandbox-swappable backends). Riding it would couple GUI browsing to the model's confinement backend — swapping `fs-sandbox` for the model must never change GUI behavior — and OS facts (home anchoring, hidden conventions) are not storage primitives. The picker seam stays presentation-free and model-free; `packages/host/` is its consumer-domain home.
- **Dependency survey (hand-roll vs adopt).** Node's stdlib *is* the maintained cross-platform OS layer (`readdir(withFileTypes)`, `homedir`, path semantics); surveyed alternatives fail the dependency bar — file-manager packages (`node-file-manager`, `files-and-folders`, Syncfusion's provider) are whole HTTP apps (fit), drive-letter helpers (`drivelist` native addon, `windows-drive-letters` ~7y stale) fail health/proportionality. The browse backend is a thin adapter over stdlib.
- **Hidden entries: return-and-flag.** The host stamps `hidden` (POSIX dot convention) and returns everything; the client filters. Display policy stays client-side, and the planned show-hidden toggle becomes a client-only change. Windows' `FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN` is not exposed by dirents — documented limitation until a native probe pays for itself.
- **Hidden entries: return-and-flag.** The host stamps `hidden` (POSIX dot convention) and returns everything; the client filters. Display policy stays client-side, and the show-hidden toggle shipped as exactly that client-only change (the browse client's footer toggle). Windows' `FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN` is not exposed by dirents — documented limitation until a native probe pays for itself.
- **Symlinks: follow for enterability.** `stat` probes symlinks (broken/cyclic → skipped); crumbs keep the logical path the operator navigated, and `workspace.create` already canonicalizes via realpath at adoption.
- **Listing levels are bounded, and streamed.** One `list` call returns at most `maxEntries` rows (config, default 1000 — GitHub's web-UI directory-listing bound). The level streams via `opendir` into a name-sorted window of `maxEntries + 1` candidates, so memory stays O(maxEntries) and enterability probing touches only windowed candidates; the wire `DirectoryListing` carries a required `truncated` flag so the client states incompleteness instead of silently missing tail entries. A windowed broken symlink is not backfilled from beyond the window — the eviction already marks the level truncated. Window insertion is binary with an O(1) full-window tail rejection (an oversized level must not pay a window scan per dirent), and `list(path, signal)` threads the carrier's request signal so a scan of a stalled network directory cannot outlive a disconnected caller — every await in the scan (open, each read, each symlink probe) races the signal, an aborted exit abandons rather than awaits the close (Node queues close behind in-flight reads), and abandoned settlements are swallowed so cleanup can never surface as an unhandled rejection. An unbounded level is a memory/responsiveness hole for large or adversarial directories.
- **Whole-filesystem scope, no roots config.** `workspace.create` accepts arbitrary paths and the API serves bash-driving methods, so a browse root would be UX scoping, not a boundary; configurability without a consumer fails the evidence bar. Deferred until a deployment needs it.
