Module: Rubino::Workspace

Defined in:
lib/rubino/workspace.rb

Overview

The set of directory roots the agent is allowed to work in.

Historically rubino had exactly ONE root, resolved at launch from terminal.cwd or Dir.pwd, and every tool re-derived it. This module turns that single root into an ordered SET of roots: the primary (launch) root plus any directories added via ‘–add-dir` / `/add-dir`. The default — no extra dirs — is byte-identical to the old single-root behaviour.

Modelled on Claude Code’s ‘–add-dir`: extra roots widen the write/edit sandbox (see Tools::Base#within_workspace?) so the agent can touch files under any allowed root, e.g. a service and its client library at once.

Class Method Details

.add(dir) ⇒ Object

Adds an extra allowed root. Returns the canonical path on success, or raises ArgumentError with a human-readable reason when the dir doesn’t exist / isn’t a readable directory. realpath-resolves so a symlinked add-dir lands on its true destination (and matches the sandbox check).

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)

def add(dir)
  expanded = File.expand_path(dir.to_s)
  raise ArgumentError, "no such directory: #{dir}" unless File.directory?(expanded)
  raise ArgumentError, "not readable: #{dir}" unless File.readable?(expanded)

  real = File.realpath(expanded)
  @mutex.synchronize do
    @added << real unless @added.include?(real) || canonical(primary_root) == real
  end
  real
end

.canonical_rootsObject

Canonical (realpath, symlinks resolved) form of every root — what the sandbox compares against.

def canonical_roots
  roots.filter_map { |dir| canonical(dir) }
end

.current_cwdObject

The SESSION current working directory — the single source of truth for “where am I right now”. Relative file paths (read/write/edit/multi_edit/ grep/glob/apply_patch, via Tools::Base#expand_workspace_path) and bare foreground shell commands all anchor here, so a ‘cd subdir` in the shell is honoured by every subsequent tool, not just the next shell call (#544/#545).

Defaults to primary_root. The shell sets it on ‘cd` (and resets it to primary_root when a command wanders OUTSIDE the workspace).

Stored THREAD-LOCAL on purpose: the parent agent loop runs on one thread (its cwd persists across calls), while every subagent runs in its own Thread (TaskTool#thread) and every background runner is its own thread —so a subagent/background runner reads a fresh nil and starts at primary_root, never inheriting the parent’s cwd (subagent isolation). A process-wide ivar would WRONGLY share one cwd across the parent and all concurrent subagents.

def current_cwd
  Thread.current[:rubino_session_cwd] || primary_root
end

.current_cwd=(path) ⇒ Object

Sets the session cwd. Within the workspace sandbox the path is adopted as-is; in strict mode a path OUTSIDE every allowed root is refused and the cwd falls back to primary_root (the shell’s soft-boundary reset). A nil/empty/non-directory path also resets to primary_root.

def current_cwd=(path)
  str = path.to_s
  Thread.current[:rubino_session_cwd] =
    if str.empty? || !File.directory?(str) || (workspace_strict? && !within_roots?(str))
      nil
    else
      str
    end
end

.primary_rootObject

The primary root: terminal.cwd when set, else the process cwd. This is the same rule Tools::Base#workspace_root has always used, kept as the single source of truth so the @-picker, shell/test cwd, file API and attachment downloader all agree on “the” root.

terminal.cwd MUST resolve to a String path: a malformed config (e.g. a YAML ‘terminal: { cwd: { … } }` nested mapping) would otherwise hand a Hash to File.expand_path downstream, which raises “no implicit conversion of Hash into String” deep in a tool’s #call — masking the real outcome (e.g. a write-denylist refusal) behind an opaque error. Anything that isn’t a non-empty String degrades to the process cwd.

def primary_root
  configured = Rubino.configuration&.dig("terminal", "cwd")
  configured.is_a?(String) && !configured.empty? ? configured : Dir.pwd
end

.reset!Object

Test/teardown hook: drop all added roots AND clear this thread’s session cwd (the primary is always derived live from config/cwd, so it can’t be reset here).

# File 'lib/rubino/workspace.rb', line 114

def reset!
  @mutex.synchronize { @added = [] }
  reset_cwd!
end

.reset_cwd!Object

Clears ONLY the thread-local session cwd, leaving added roots intact. Used by the global spec before-hook so a ‘cd` (or a direct current_cwd=) on the main thread doesn’t leak into the next example, WITHOUT wiping roots an ‘around`/`before` set up for that example.

def reset_cwd!
  Thread.current[:rubino_session_cwd] = nil
end

.rootsObject

Every allowed root: the primary first, then each added dir, de-duped on canonical path so re-adding the launch dir (or the same dir twice) is a no-op. Returns plain strings.
