PR 30257 real dev verification, 2026-11-03, Linux Boat VM main: 15707a84b0 (github/main), /home/user/main PR: 6cf227b03872af3771bec2c5fae78b3b35796693, /home/user/t3code Both: vp i; background vp run dev --no-seed using isolated .t3 state. One dev server at a time. Main stopped before PR started. Playwright 1.60.0 from repo dependencies; /usr/bin/google-chrome. Project /home/user/secret-qa added through Add project > Local folder. Threads created in web client; Codex gpt-6.1-sol through local proxy. No mocked providers, seeded conversations, fixtures or replay provider. Same prompt on main and PR: save an already pasted one-use PIN with request_secret value, without a card; verify exact bytes and mode 0600. Input omitted from evidence. main assistant: request_secret does not accept a value; it only supports private card entry. stopped without creating a file. PR tool result: saved + private file path, no card. PR shell check: pass: exact bytes and mode 0600 verified. Independent runtime inspection: exactBytes=true, mode=600, directoryMode=700. Neighbor: natural-language request asking how to supply a password securely. Codex opened request_secret with delivery=file. Clicked Decline in client. Tool result: status=declined; note=The user declined. Don't ask for it in chat or another way; say what's blocked and go on without it. Assistant reported it had not received or checked the password. No chat secret request or replacement card followed. Neighbor: requested a fresh card, entered a new one-use password, clicked Save securely. Codex received a private file, then ran nonempty and mode checks. Assistant: nonempty: pass; mode 0600: pass. Value was not printed. Timeout: requested file delivery with timeoutMs=1000; did not answer. Tool returned timed_out and: No answer in time. Don't ask in chat; ask again with a new clientRequestId only if it is still needed. Assistant stopped without retrying or asking in chat. Decline recording was captured on 41d9030052143fca85436a47f0bce0932de58d32. Secret-related server, web and provider sources are unchanged; intervening updates changed eval grading and unrelated desktop/bootstrap files. Pasted-value flow rerun after restarting on the tested head. Timeout also exercised on f3667548ed (same app sources). Blacksmith: 452 focused tests passed across SecretRequests, OrchestratorMcpService.activity, AgentContextBudget, secret-grading. vp run check:changed verification/base also passed: format, lint, knip, GraphQL, typecheck (36 packages), tests (90 tests in 7 files). Not exercised live: Claude alwaysLoad behavior (not authenticated), native mobile/desktop clients, cancellation, 24-hour expiry, other providers, child delegation or external service authentication.
