Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to This PR pins tar to 7.5.21 across the affected runtime and image paths, but the new ordering test does not cover the Pi image’s flagged npm invocation, so a future regression there could allow an unsafe dependency order to pass CI unnoticed. The PR is otherwise mergeable with explicit owner follow-up to correct that test. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Add a negative-path test for archive integrity mismatches.
The registry path uses tar@7.5.21 and its expected SRI by default. Tests cover tar@7.5.19 and tar@7.5.20 as affected inputs and verify that they are rejected. They do not exercise mismatched archive bytes before extraction and tree mutation.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
The npm-consumer regex misses npm ci invocations that carry flags, so the Pi ordering claim is not exercised.
/\bnpm\s+(?:ci|install)\b/gu requires the subcommand directly after npm. agents/pi/Dockerfile.base Line 355 runs:
npm --prefix /usr/local/lib/nemoclaw/pi-runtime ci --omit=dev --ignore-scripts
The global flag sits between npm and ci, so the regex does not match. npmConsumers stays empty for that image. Two assertions then pass without testing anything:
- Line 216 accepts
installsWithNpm: falseforagents/pi/Dockerfile.base(Line 51 and Line 230), although a realnpm ciruns in that image. - Line 218 and Line 263 evaluate
everyover an empty array, so the "npm consumers run after the final patch" guarantee is vacuously true for Pi.
The Dockerfile ordering is correct today, so no image is broken. The regression guard that this PR adds does not cover the Pi image. Allow leading npm flags in the pattern and correct the Pi metadata.
💚 Proposed fix
- const npmConsumers = [...executableSource.matchAll(/\bnpm\s+(?:ci|install)\b/gu)].map(
- (match) => match.index,
- );
+ const npmConsumers = [
+ ...executableSource.matchAll(
+ /\bnpm\s+(?:--?[\w-]+(?:=\S+)?\s+(?:\S+\s+)?)*(?:ci|install)\b/gu,
+ ),
+ ].map((match) => match.index);Apply the same pattern at Line 258. Then set installsWithNpm: true for agents/pi/Dockerfile.base at Line 51 and Line 230.
As per path instructions: "Flag copied production algorithms, broad mocks that bypass the behavior under test, and conditionals that make a test pass without exercising its claim."
