Write opencode config JSON without escaping slashes (cmux 7140)

[teamleaderleo]

Revives #7166 (closed as stale in the 09-23 bulk close)

What / why

Fixes #7140. cmux hooks opencode install (and the omo launcher) rewrite opencode.json and the oh-my-openagent config through JSONSerialization with [.prettyPrinted, .sortedKeys], which escapes every / as \/. That is valid JSON, but opencode substitutes {file:...} templates on the raw config text before parsing, so {file:./AGENTS.md} becomes {file:.\/AGENTS.md} and opencode rejects the entire config ("bad file reference"), taking providers, models, and sessions down with it.

Still live on main at CLI/cmux.swift (omo shadow opencode.json writer, omo tmux config writer, and updateOpenCodePluginRegistration). The fix adds .withoutEscapingSlashes to those three writers. Users whose config was already corrupted get it repaired on the next install, because the output bytes now differ from what is on disk.

Changes vs the original

• The original added a serializeOpenCodeConfigJSON helper; this port just adds the option inline at the three call sites (no new lines in CLI/cmux.swift).
• Dropped the original's unrelated changes to the file-length budget file (no longer exists) and the test file's import rewrite.
• Test trimmed to the same assertions on raw bytes.

Testing

• New OpenCodeHookRegressionTests.testOpenCodeInstallPreservesFileReferencesWithoutSlashEscaping: runs the bundled CLI's hooks opencode install --yes against a sandbox config containing {file:./AGENTS.md}, a ./ instruction and the schema URL, and asserts the raw file has no \/ and keeps each value verbatim.
• Existing testOpenCodeInstallHooksIsIdempotentForLegacySetupAlias still covers the idempotent second run.

Summary by cubic

Fixes #7140: JSONSerialization slash-escaping turned {file:./AGENTS.md} into {file:.\/AGENTS.md} in the opencode and omo config writers. opencode resolves {file:...} templates on the raw text before parsing, so escaped configs were rejected with "bad file reference". Adds .withoutEscapingSlashes to the three writers; already-corrupted configs are repaired on the next install since the output bytes now differ.

Testing

• New regression test runs hooks opencode install --yes against a sandbox config containing {file:./AGENTS.md} and asserts the raw file has no \/.
• New migration test asserts the omo shadow opencode and oh-my-openagent configs keep file references unescaped byte for byte.

^{Written for commit 67515ed. Summary will update on new commits.}

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Configuration files now preserve unescaped slashes in generated JSON, including file references, URLs, and plugin references. Pretty printing and key sorting remain unchanged.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Three JSON serialization paths now disable slash escaping while retaining pretty printing and sorted keys. An OpenCode installation regression test checks that file references, the schema URL, and the plugin reference remain unescaped.

Changes

JSON serialization

Layer / File(s)	Summary
JSON serialization and regression coverage CLI/cmux.swift, cmuxTests/OpenCodeHookRegressionTests.swift	Three JSON serialization paths add .withoutEscapingSlashes. The OpenCode installation regression test checks that the raw configuration retains its file template, schema URL, and session plugin reference without escaped slashes.

Priority: ⬆️ High

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Bug fix · Severity of issue fixed: High

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 490fd

The slash-escaping fix appears mergeable, but the two OMO configuration outputs lack regression checks for the same issue. Add raw-output assertions to protect them.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 490fd

The change is confined to how the existing installer and launcher write local configuration. It appears to restore file-reference compatibility without adding a new entrypoint or privilege, but the downstream behavior is not exercised against a real OpenCode process.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

• inferred — The changed exposure is the local user's OpenCode configuration and the launcher's shadow copy. The changed statements show no added remote entrypoint or broader authority.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

• observed — The installer rejects unparseable existing JSON, refuses to overwrite a non-cmux plugin file, retains its confirmation path unless explicitly skipped, and writes the config atomically. The serialization change does not modify those controls.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

• observed — Existing install and uninstall ordering remains in place: plugin-file operations and registration updates are separate steps. The PR changes their config serialization, not the transition ordering or atomic-write mechanism.
