Summary

  • recut the 25-file trusted startup benchmark runner onto frozen main 1329f5a187a7cc8b6040b0970e745236b0094a19
  • require trusted_sha == baseline_sha, lowercase full commit identities, exactly 10 warmup pairs, exactly 50 measured pairs, serial paired launches, raw distributions, and a nonzero named harness-test count
  • close the uploaded artifact file set and require macOS Time Profiler, Linux strace, and Windows WPR output for both measured targets

The three commits keep the source recut, red contract tests, and contract fixes plus documentation separate.

Testing

  • git diff --check 1329f5a187a7cc8b6040b0970e745236b0094a19..HEAD
  • Python AST parse for cmux-tui/scripts/verify-startup-benchmark.py
  • Ruby YAML parse for the two workflows and setup action
  • actionlint .github/workflows/cmux-tui-startup-benchmark.yml .github/workflows/cmux-tui.yml
  • verified all 25 source-first blobs against checkpoint 8780a6fb5b395219da8a33d6b1c10aec0ac945a8
  • no local Cargo, Rust, Zig, or Xcode command and no hosted benchmark dispatch, as required by the recut handoff

Summary by cubic

Recuts the trusted cmux-tui startup benchmark runner on a frozen base and enforces a stricter, closed evidence contract for reproducible comparisons. Previously looser runs are replaced with serial, paired measurements and required platform profiles to make results auditable.

  • Adds cmux-startup-bootstrap with a Windows native bootstrap (C + Rust) for precise pre-main timing and handle validation; integrates memmap2.
  • Introduces the benchmark harness and supervisor examples (startup_benchmark*), a Windows diagnostics tool, and documentation under Startup Performance.
  • Adds cmux-tui-startup-benchmark.yml and tightens .github/workflows/cmux-tui.yml to prepare containment fixtures; Linux runners now detect and export CMUX_BENCH_LINUX_BWRAP.
  • Adds scripts/verify-startup-benchmark.py to validate SHAs, counts, distributions, and artifact contents; updates the setup-cmux-tui-rust composite action to accept toolchain-file and python-command inputs while preserving defaults.

Contract and rollout

  • Benchmark requirements: trusted_sha == baseline_sha (lowercase 40-char), exactly 10 warmup pairs and 50 measured pairs, serial paired launches, raw distributions, and a nonzero named harness-test count.
  • Evidence packaging: upload a closed artifact set with macOS Time Profiler, Linux strace, and Windows WPR outputs for both targets; the verifier rejects extra/missing files.
  • CI/runner expectations: Linux must have bubblewrap (exported as CMUX_BENCH_LINUX_BWRAP); macOS/Windows runners must have the listed profilers.
  • Action usage: setup-cmux-tui-rust supports optional toolchain-file and python-command; no changes needed if omitted.

Written for commit 0f0fb8f. Summary will update on new commits.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds a cross-platform startup benchmark harness with containment preflight, lifecycle evidence, artifact verification, native Windows bootstrap support, diagnostics, and hosted CI enforcement.

Changes

Startup containment and benchmarking

Layer / File(s) Summary
Bootstrap contracts and native Windows launcher
cmux-tui/crates/cmux-startup-bootstrap/...
Adds versioned bootstrap configuration, authenticated records, launch evidence, validation, restricted-token product launch, private-desktop handling, and native Windows cleanup.
Benchmark protocol, execution, and reports
cmux-tui/crates/cmux-tui/examples/startup_benchmark*, cmux-tui/crates/cmux-tui/examples/startup_benchmark_support/*
Adds argument validation, timing coordination, scenario execution, paired baseline/candidate measurements, lifecycle tracking, statistics, metadata, and JSON/Markdown reports.
Containment preflight and failure diagnostics
cmux-tui/crates/cmux-tui/examples/startup_benchmark_preflight.rs, cmux-tui/crates/cmux-tui/examples/startup_benchmark_windows_diagnostic.rs
Adds platform probes, supervisor orchestration, bounded failure artifacts, Windows hang diagnostics, minidumps, and cleanup validation.
Artifact verification and hosted workflow integration
cmux-tui/scripts/verify-startup-benchmark.py, .github/workflows/cmux-tui.yml, .github/actions/setup-cmux-tui-rust/action.yml, cmux-tui/scripts/windows-account-right.ps1, cmux-tui/docs/*, cmux-tui/README.md
Adds strict evidence and artifact verification, platform-specific CI setup and cleanup, Windows account-right management, configurable Rust setup inputs, and startup-performance documentation links.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Mergeability Score: 🟡 Moderate · up to 0f0fb

The runner can currently report trusted containment evidence without directly proving Windows job membership, while macOS and Windows cleanup may silently remove surviving processes instead of failing the benchmark. This can allow invalid startup measurements to be accepted, so the PR needs owner attention and remediation before merge.

P2 Badge Gate the Windows containment job on full mode

For a dispatch with mode: focused, this job has no mode condition, so it still runs the full Windows bootstrap and release-harness sequence; hosted-verification also unconditionally requires its success. A filtered Linux/macOS test therefore waits for, and can fail because of, an unrelated Windows gate. Add an inputs.mode == 'full' guard and require this result only in full mode.

📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Make the Python version gate print why it failed.

raise SystemExit(sys.version_info < (3, 9)) works because True converts to exit code 1. The step then fails with no message, so a maintainer sees only a nonzero exit from a -c invocation. Raise an explicit message instead.

Pass matrix.os through env instead of expanding it in the script body.

Line 395 interpolates ${{ matrix.os }} directly into the run script. The value is a workflow literal today, so it is not attacker controlled, but zizmor flags the expansion as a template-injection risk and will keep failing this pattern. Move the value into env and read it as a shell variable.

This step kills every process owned by the per-launch accounts and then only fails if an account or the group remains. A surviving contained process is the exact containment escape the preflight is meant to prove, and here it is killed silently. The Linux cleanup at Lines 685-738 treats the same condition as a containment failure through containment_failed and exits 1. The Windows cleanup at Lines 991-999 has the same gap. Track the survivor condition on macOS and Windows, and fail the job after cleanup completes.

Align the minimum restricting-SID length with the native parser.

validate_restricting_sid accepts any value that starts with S-1-, so the 4-byte string "S-1-" passes. take_sid in cmux-tui/crates/cmux-startup-bootstrap/native/windows_bootstrap.c (Line 382) rejects any field shorter than 5 bytes. A config that this encoder accepts can therefore fail in the native parser with a generic parse_config failure and no stage evidence.

Require at least one subauthority digit after the S-1- prefix.

Windows Job-membership containment is never observed directly. Both sites share one root cause: the direct Job-membership probe was never implemented, so the evidence was substituted with an indirect signal. Downstream verification in report.rs and verify-startup-benchmark.py then requires those substituted fields to be true, which makes the check unfalsifiable.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Read the child stdout before you wait for exit.

command_text waits for process exit first, then drains the piped stdout. If a metadata command writes more than the pipe buffer, the child blocks on write and the parent blocks in wait_timeout until the 10-second deadline expires. The function then returns "unavailable", and the verifier rejects that sentinel value, so the whole benchmark fails. Read stdout on a helper thread, or drain it before the wait.

Size the module buffer with HMODULE, not HANDLE.

modules is [HMODULE; MAX_MODULES], and Lines 478-481 also divide bytes_needed by size_of::<HANDLE>(). The two types are currently identical pointer types in windows-sys, so the arithmetic is correct today. Use size_of::<HMODULE>() in all three places so the buffer size stays correct if the type alias changes.

Remove the redundant infrastructure collection.

run already calls InfrastructureMetadata::collect(&args) at Line 28 to validate the trusted infrastructure. run_profile collects it again at Line 78 as the baseline snapshot, and run_comparison repeats the same pattern at Line 128. Each call re-reads and re-hashes the supervisor and preflight files. Pass the validated snapshot from run into both paths, and keep only the post-execution comparison collection.

Hash the artifact tree once in close_artifact.

close_artifact calls collect_artifact_records at Line 339, and then validate_artifact_manifest at Line 355 calls it again at Line 303. Every file in the artifact tree is walked, stat-ed, and SHA-256 hashed twice. The tree holds native profiles such as .etl traces and minidumps, so this doubles the I/O on the largest evidence set. Pass the already-collected records into the validation step.

Load JSON through load_json_object on the main path.

This module defines load_json_object, which rejects symlinks and non-regular files and converts decode failures into a clear SystemExit. The main path and several other readers bypass it and call json.loads(path.read_text(...)) directly, so a malformed or missing file produces a Python traceback instead of a verification message. The same pattern appears at Lines 359, 642, 1042, 1121, and 1150. Route these reads through load_json_object.
