Summary of Changes

Hello @0xtsotsi, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request significantly enhances DevFlow by introducing a robust autonomous memory system, 'Beads', alongside a flexible 'Skills and Hooks' framework. These additions enable more sophisticated workflow orchestration, allowing AI agents to perform complex development tasks, conduct comprehensive research, manage CI/CD pipelines, and coordinate multi-phase projects with greater autonomy and intelligence. The changes lay the groundwork for a more self-sufficient and integrated development environment.

Highlights

  • Skills, Hooks, and Workflow Orchestration System: Introduces user-invocable skills via slash commands, event-driven hooks (pre/post tool, file operations), and a workflow orchestration system supporting parallel agent execution, lifecycle management, and dependency resolution.
  • Beads Autonomous Agent Memory System: Integrates autonomous memory, coordination, and research capabilities for AI agents, including services for auto-creating issues from agent errors, querying past issues as context, intelligent agent selection, and research integration with codebase and GitHub issue analysis.
  • New Skill Definitions: Adds markdown definitions for new skills: CI/CD (comprehensive validation), Implement (orchestrates full implementation lifecycle), Research (conducts parallel research), and Workflow Orchestrator (coordinates development workflows).
  • Core Service Implementations: New services have been added for managing hooks, configuring MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers, and implementing the core logic for Research, Implementation, CI/CD, and Workflow Orchestrator skills.
  • Expanded Agent Capabilities: The agent system now includes an 'orchestration' agent type with enhanced capabilities for coordinating complex, multi-phase workflows and managing checkpoints.
  • Comprehensive Documentation: New guides have been added for the Hooks System, MCP Setup, Skills System, and Workflow Orchestration, providing detailed usage and configuration instructions.

P2 Badge Allow /stats to bypass the generic :id route

Because the /:id GET route is registered before the /stats GET route, Express will match /api/hooks/stats as an ID lookup and return “Hook not found” unless a hook with ID stats exists. That makes the stats endpoint unreachable for normal callers. Move the /stats handler above /:id (or use a more specific route pattern) so /stats can be served.

P2 Badge Don’t auto-approve checkpoints in semi mode

In semi mode the workflow is supposed to pause for user approval, but waitForApproval always resolves true after 1s and never consults approveCheckpoint/rejectCheckpoint. This means /api/skills/workflow with mode: "semi" proceeds without waiting, and user rejections can’t stop the workflow. The approval path should block until an actual approval/rejection is recorded for the workflow.

Code Review

This pull request introduces a significant new feature set, including the Skills/Hooks workflow orchestration and the Beads autonomous agent memory system. The architecture is comprehensive and enables powerful new capabilities for agent coordination and autonomous operation. My review focused on the new services, agent prompts, and system integration. I've identified a few critical security vulnerabilities, including a Remote Code Execution (RCE) vector in the hooks system and a command injection risk, which must be addressed. I also found a race condition in the server startup logic that could lead to a crash. Additionally, there are some bugs in the newly added tests and opportunities for code refactoring to improve maintainability. Overall, this is a strong foundation, but it requires careful attention to the security and stability issues raised.

critical

There is a critical race condition in the server initialization logic. The skill and hook services (researchSkillService, hooksService, etc.) are declared with definite assignment assertions (!) and initialized within an async IIFE. However, the routes that depend on these services are configured immediately after invoking the IIFE, not after it completes. This means createSkillsRoutes and createHooksRoutes will be called with undefined services, causing the server to crash on startup.

The comment on line 194 is incorrect; the IIFE is async and does not run synchronously for assignment.

To fix this, all code that depends on the initialized services (route setup, server listening) should be moved inside the async IIFE after all await calls.

security-critical critical

The use of new AsyncFunction('context', hook.implementation) to execute hook implementations is a critical security vulnerability. It allows for Remote Code Execution (RCE) because the implementation string is executed as code on the server. Since hooks can be registered via an API endpoint (POST /api/hooks), an attacker could submit a malicious JavaScript payload as the implementation and execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the server process. This should be replaced with a safer execution model, such as a sandboxed environment (e.g., using vm2) or a more restrictive, declarative hook system that doesn't execute arbitrary code.

security-high high

The autoCommitChanges method is vulnerable to command injection. The message parameter is directly interpolated into the git commit command string. If an attacker can control the commitMessage, they could inject arbitrary commands by crafting a malicious message with characters like " and && or ;.

To mitigate this, you should use execFile from child_process and pass the arguments as an array. This prevents shell interpretation of the arguments.

Example:

import { execFile } from 'child_process';
import { promisify } from 'util';

const execFileAsync = promisify(execFile);

// ... inside autoCommitChanges

await execFileAsync('git', ['commit', '-m', message], { cwd: projectPath });

There appears to be a nested markdown code block within the orchestration agent's system prompt. The phases block is inside another code block, which might not be intended and could cause rendering issues or misinterpretation by the agent. While this pattern is used elsewhere, the nesting here seems particularly problematic. If the phases block is meant to be a distinct code section within the larger example, it should not be nested inside another ``` block.

The mcpConfigurationService is initialized but never used. The eslint-disable comment suggests this might be intentional, but if the service's constructor has no side effects, this is dead code and should be removed. If it is intended to have side effects, it would be better to call an explicit initialize() method to make the intent clear.

The event handling logic for agent:completed and agent:error is identical. This code duplication can be refactored into a single block to improve maintainability.

      // Notify hooks service of agent completion or error
      const payload = result as { sessionId?: string; projectPath?: string };

The HookMode type is defined as only 'blocking', but the documentation (HOOKS_GUIDE.md) and implementation logic in hooks-manager.ts imply the existence of a 'non-blocking' mode. This type definition should be updated to include 'non-blocking' to accurately reflect the system's capabilities and prevent potential type errors.

Suggested change
export type HookMode = 'blocking'; // Hook must pass before operation continues
export type HookMode = 'blocking' | 'non-blocking';

apps/server/.env.example (1)

63-63: Remove duplicate EXA_API_KEY definition.

The key is defined at Line 63 (under Orchestrator Configuration) and again at Line 115 (under MCP Servers). This duplication will cause the second definition to override the first, and having both definitions in the file is confusing and error-prone.

🔎 Proposed fix

Remove the duplicate at Line 115:

-# Exa MCP Server (for web research)
-EXA_API_KEY=

Keep the single definition at Line 63, which applies to both the Orchestrator and MCP Servers.

Also applies to: 115-115

This file contains 691 lines, significantly exceeding the 300-line guideline. Consider refactoring into smaller modules:

  • Extract keyword/pattern definitions into a separate constants file
  • Move scoring logic into a separate scoring service
  • Separate classification logic from analysis logic

apps/server/tests/unit/lib/hooks-manager.test.ts-96-100 (1)

96-100: Fix the incorrect test assertion — 'return true' is valid JavaScript.

The test expects validateImplementation('return true') to return valid: false and error: defined, but AsyncFunction accepts 'return true' without a semicolon. The test assertions should be inverted to expect(result.valid).toBe(true) and expect(result.error).toBeUndefined().

apps/server/tests/unit/services/research-skill-service.test.ts-15-41 (1)

15-41: Placeholder tests provide no coverage.

The tests check for method existence but don't validate actual behavior. Consider implementing tests that:

  • Mock the mcpBridge.callTool method to simulate research agent responses
  • Verify parallel execution of all three research agents
  • Assert proper event emissions (skill:started, skill:completed, etc.)
  • Validate the aggregated research result structure
apps/server/tests/integration/skills.integration.test.ts-3-58 (1)

3-58: Integration test scaffolding requires implementation.

This file contains only placeholder assertions across all test cases. Before merging, implement actual integration tests that:

  • Set up test environment and dependencies in beforeAll
  • Execute real workflows through the skills system
  • Verify MCP server integration and event emissions
  • Test error handling paths
  • Clean up resources in afterAll

Do you want me to generate skeleton implementations for these integration tests with proper setup/teardown and realistic assertions?

apps/server/tests/unit/services/cicd-skill-service.test.ts-29-42 (1)

29-42: Implement actual test logic instead of placeholders.

These tests contain only placeholder assertions (expect(true).toBe(true)) that provide no validation of the service's behavior. Consider implementing tests that mock the underlying npm command execution and verify the CI/CD pipeline stages execute correctly.

apps/server/tests/unit/services/cicd-skill-service.test.ts-15-27 (1)

15-27: API signature mismatch with production service.

The request object properties (runTests, runLint, runBuild) don't match the actual executeCICD API signature. According to the service implementation, executeCICD accepts projectPath: string and an optional options object with skipE2E?: boolean, autoCommit?: boolean, and reportFormat?: 'html' | 'json'.

58-64: Implement onIssueCreated method or update the test.

The test references service.onIssueCreated, but this method does not exist in WorkflowOrchestratorService. The service only exports execute, executeWorkflow, and isAvailable. The test is a skeleton that will fail when executed.

apps/server/src/index.ts-193-199 (1)

193-199: Potential race condition with service initialization.

The definite assignment assertions assume synchronous initialization, but the services are assigned inside an async IIFE. The routes are mounted outside the IIFE (lines 350-360), which means route handlers could be invoked before services are fully initialized, leading to runtime errors.

🔎 Recommended fix

Option 1: Move route mounting inside the IIFE after service initialization:

   console.log('[Server] Skills & Hooks system initialized');
+
+  // Mount Skills & Hooks routes after initialization
+  app.use(
+    '/api/skills',
+    apiLimiter,
+    createSkillsRoutes({
+      researchSkillService,
+      implementationSkillService,
+      cicdSkillService,
+      workflowOrchestratorService,
+    })
+  );
+  app.use('/api/hooks', apiLimiter, createHooksRoutes(hooksService));
 })();

Option 2: Add explicit initialization flags and guards in route handlers to ensure services are ready before processing requests.

Option 3: Block server startup until all services are initialized:

-})();
+})().then(() => {
+  startServer(PORT);
+});
 
 // ============================================================================
 // API Routes
 // ============================================================================

Then move the startServer(PORT) call from line 660 to be triggered after initialization completes.

79-86: Auto-commit should trigger pre-commit hooks.

The auto-commit step uses git commit -m "..." which bypasses any pre-commit hooks that might be configured. Since this PR introduces a hooks system with pre-commit hooks, the CI/CD workflow should either:

  1. Execute pre-commit hooks before committing
  2. Use git commit --no-verify explicitly if bypassing is intentional
  3. Document that pre-commit hooks are already executed as part of the validation stages

Also consider verifying git status is clean before attempting to stage and commit.

apps/server/src/lib/hooks-manager.ts-214-257 (1)

214-257: Security risk: Executing arbitrary code strings.

The executeHookImplementation method creates and executes functions from arbitrary strings stored in hook.implementation. This is equivalent to eval() and poses significant security risks if hook implementations can be set by untrusted sources.

Consider:

  1. Validating/sanitizing hook sources
  2. Running hooks in a sandboxed environment (e.g., VM2, isolated-vm)
  3. Documenting that hooks must come from trusted sources only

If hooks are only defined by administrators, document this security assumption. If hooks can be user-defined, sandboxing is essential.

apps/server/src/services/implementation-skill-service.ts-558-651 (1)

558-651: Multiple placeholder implementations returning fixed values.

These methods are stubs that always return success or empty arrays:

  • checkImplementationErrors: Always returns hasErrors: false
  • runDebugAgent: Always returns success: true
  • spawnTestingAgent: Returns placeholder string
  • runTests: Always returns hasErrors: false
  • extractFilesModified/extractTestsWritten: Always return []

This makes the auto-fix loop (lines 338-421) and testing phase (lines 446-507) non-functional. If this is intentional scaffolding for future implementation, consider adding TODO comments or throwing NotImplementedError to prevent silent failures in production.

88-105: Unused taskId and sessionId parameters.

The route validates and requires taskId and sessionId in the request body, but these values are not passed to executeImplementation. Either remove the validation or pass them to the service for tracking/correlation.

🔎 Proposed fix

If these are needed for tracking, update the service call:

       const result = await services.implementationSkillService.executeImplementation(
         description,
         projectPath,
         {

Or if they're not needed, simplify the validation:

-      const { taskId, sessionId, projectPath, description } = req.body;
+      const { projectPath, description } = req.body;

-      if (!taskId || !sessionId || !projectPath || !description) {

79-126: Reorder environment variables to maintain consistency.

The convention for naming environment variables is to use UPPER_SNAKE_CASE, which these variables follow.

While this is a minor readability issue in "Chill" mode, consider reorganizing for consistency:

This is a well-structured test skeleton with clear categories for workflow orchestration scenarios. The placeholder tests provide a good roadmap for future implementation.

When implementing these tests, you'll likely need:

  • Service mocks or test instances for WorkflowOrchestratorService
  • Test fixtures for workflow configurations
  • Event emitter mocks to verify event emissions
  • Beads service test doubles for integration scenarios
  • Timeout handling for async workflow operations

Consider creating a tracking issue to implement these tests incrementally alongside the workflow orchestration features.

1-682: File significantly exceeds 300 line limit.

At 682 lines, this file is more than double the 300-line guideline. Consider extracting phase runners into separate modules or a strategy pattern.

apps/server/src/services/cicd-skill-service.ts (1)

1-777: File significantly exceeds 300 line limit.

At 777 lines, this file is more than 2.5x the 300-line guideline. Consider extracting stage runners or the HTML report generator into separate modules.

apps/server/src/services/workflow-orchestrator-service.ts (2)

1-552: File exceeds 300-line guideline.

This file is 552 lines, significantly exceeding the 300-line limit specified in the coding guidelines. Consider extracting the phase execution methods into a separate helper module or splitting checkpoint management into its own service.

As per coding guidelines, keep files under 300 lines to avoid monolithic files.


218-423: Consider extracting common phase execution logic to reduce duplication.

All four phase methods (runResearchPhase, runPlanningPhase, runImplementationPhase, runCICDPhase) follow an identical pattern: emit start event, call MCP bridge, emit complete event, return result. This could be consolidated into a generic phase runner.

🔎 Example refactor
private async runPhase(
  phase: WorkflowPhase,
  toolName: string,
  toolArgs: Record<string, unknown>,
  workflowId: string,
  timeout: number
): Promise<{ success: boolean; duration: number; output?: string }> {
  const startTime = Date.now();

  try {
    this.events.emit('skill:phase-started', {
      skill: 'workflow-orchestrator',
      phase,
      workflowId,
    });

    const result = await this.mcpBridge.callTool(
      toolName,
      toolArgs,
      { timeout, throwOnError: false }
    );

    const duration = Date.now() - startTime;

    this.events.emit('skill:phase-completed', {
      skill: 'workflow-orchestrator',
      phase,
      workflowId,
      duration,
    });

    return {
      success: result.success,
      duration,
      output: result.success ? JSON.stringify(result.data) : undefined,
    };
  } catch (error) {
    const duration = Date.now() - startTime;
    return {
      success: false,
      duration,
      output: (error as Error).message,
    };
  }
}
apps/server/src/services/hooks-service.ts (3)

1-500: File exceeds 300-line guideline.

This file is 500 lines, exceeding the 300-line limit. Consider extracting default hook definitions to a separate configuration file and/or moving validation logic to a dedicated validator module.

As per coding guidelines, keep files under 300 lines to avoid monolithic files.


225-253: Default "Check for Debug Code" hook may be too aggressive.

The hook blocks commits containing TODO or FIXME comments, which are commonly used as legitimate documentation markers. This may frustrate developers who use these patterns intentionally.

Consider either:

  1. Making this hook disabled by default
  2. Separating debug code (console.log, debugger) from documentation markers (TODO, FIXME)
  3. Adding configuration to customize the patterns
🔎 Proposed fix: Separate concerns
-            const output = execSync('git grep -n "console\\.log\\|debugger\\|TODO\\|FIXME" -- .":!node_modules" .":!dist" .":!build"', { cwd: context.projectPath, encoding: 'utf-8' });
+            // Only check for debug artifacts, not documentation markers
+            const output = execSync('git grep -n "console\\.log\\|debugger" -- .":!node_modules" .":!dist" .":!build"', { cwd: context.projectPath, encoding: 'utf-8' });

452-468: executionStats returns hardcoded zeros; consider tracking executions.

The getStats method returns placeholder values for execution statistics. If this is intentional scaffolding, consider adding a TODO comment. If real stats are needed, the service should track execution counts and timing.

Would you like me to help implement execution statistics tracking for this service?

apps/server/src/services/mcp-configuration-service.ts (2)

1-400: File exceeds 300-line guideline.

This file is 400 lines. Consider extracting server definitions and permission constants into a separate configuration file.

As per coding guidelines, keep files under 300 lines to avoid monolithic files.


225-236: getServerEnv may include undefined values that will be omitted in JSON.

When process.env[envVar] is undefined, JSON serialization will omit that key entirely. If the MCP server config expects these keys to be present (even if empty), this could cause issues.

🔎 Proposed fix: Filter undefined values or use empty string
 private getServerEnv(name: string): Record<string, string | undefined> {
   const definition = this.defaultServers[name];
   if (!definition?.requiredEnvVars) {
     return {};
   }

-  const env: Record<string, string | undefined> = {};
+  const env: Record<string, string> = {};
   for (const envVar of definition.requiredEnvVars) {
-    env[envVar] = process.env[envVar];
+    const value = process.env[envVar];
+    if (value !== undefined) {
+      env[envVar] = value;
+    }
   }
   return env;
 }

Register these tools in the MCP bridge or Claude SDK system for proper invocation.

The orchestration agent references spawn_helper_agent, create_beads_issue, and query_beads_memory, but these are declared in the SDK's allowedTools list without corresponding tool handlers or MCP registrations. While query_beads_memory has one call site via mcpBridge.callTool() in research-skill-service.ts, the complete tool infrastructure is missing:

  • Tools are listed in claude-provider.ts but not registered as custom Claude SDK tools
  • MCP bridge has no handlers for these tool names (contrast with mcp__vibe_kanban__* and mcp__grep__* which are properly registered)
  • Underlying service methods exist (spawnHelperAgent, createIssue) but are not exposed as tool handlers

Add MCP tool handlers, register tools with the Claude SDK's custom tools system, or remove these tools from allowedTools if they're not yet implemented.

Broken AsyncFunction constructor implementation.

The AsyncFunction construction is incorrect. Line 312 creates an empty regular function, and line 314's setPrototypeOf doesn't make it work as an async function constructor. This will fail at runtime when new AsyncFunction('context', implementation) is called on line 220.

AsyncFunction constructor is implemented incorrectly (an empty regular function
is cast and prototype-set), which breaks calls to new AsyncFunction(...).
Replace the current two-line hack with a proper assignment using the async
function constructor: obtain the constructor via Object.getPrototypeOf(async
function(){}).constructor and assign it to AsyncFunction (keeping the existing
AsyncFunctionConstructor interface), so new AsyncFunction('args', 'body')
produces an async function as expected.

Critical: Route ordering bug - /stats endpoint is unreachable.

The GET /stats route at line 149 is defined after the GET /:id route at line 45. In Express, routes are matched in order, so requests to /api/hooks/stats will match the /:id route with id="stats", making the stats endpoint completely unreachable.

Move the /stats route definition before the /:id route to fix this.

npm audit --json throws on vulnerabilities.

npm audit exits with non-zero status when vulnerabilities are found, causing execAsync to reject. The catch block handles this, but the result parsing on line 540 (JSON.parse(stdout)) won't work since stdout is from the error object, not the try block.

Critical discrepancies between documented and actual event emissions.

The documentation does not accurately reflect the actual events emitted by WorkflowOrchestratorService. Key issues:

  • Event naming mismatch: Documentation shows workflow:stage-started and workflow:stage-completed, but the code emits skill:phase-started and skill:phase-completed
  • Event structure mismatch: Documentation shows a single workflow:checkpoint event, but the implementation emits three distinct events: workflow:checkpoint-created, workflow:checkpoint-approved, and workflow:checkpoint-rejected
  • Missing documented events: Documentation claims workflow:started, workflow:completed, and workflow:failed are emitted, but the WorkflowOrchestratorService does not emit these
  • Undocumented events: The code emits skill:started, skill:completed, and skill:failed, which are not mentioned in the documentation

Update the documentation to reflect actual event names and ensure the listener examples use the correct events with their actual payload structures.

add listeners for skill lifecycle events (skill:started, skill:completed,
skill:failed), and replace the single checkpoint listener with the three
checkpoint events (workflow:checkpoint-created, workflow:checkpoint-approved,
workflow:checkpoint-rejected); ensure each example handler references the real
payload properties emitted by the service (e.g., include workflowId, skillId,

The documented WorkflowCheckpoint interface does not exist in the codebase.

The actual checkpoint type is CheckpointMetadata (in apps/server/src/services/checkpoint-service.ts) with a completely different structure. Update the documentation to reflect:

  • checkpointId (not id)
  • featureId (not name)
  • agents array containing agent status and task history (not stage or actions)
  • state object (not result)
  • version and createdAt fields
  • No requiresApproval or actions properties
🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In docs/WORKFLOW_ORCHESTRATION_GUIDE.md around lines 257 to 276, replace the
incorrect WorkflowCheckpoint interface description with the actual
CheckpointMetadata shape: use checkpointId (instead of id), featureId (instead
of name), include an agents array (each agent entry contains status and task
history) rather than stage or actions, replace result with a state object, and
add version and createdAt fields; remove requiresApproval and actions properties
and ensure field names and brief descriptions match the CheckpointMetadata
implementation in apps/server/src/services/checkpoint-service.ts.

## Integration with Beads

Workflows integrate with Beads issue tracker:

```typescript
// Auto-start workflow on issue creation
events.on('beads:issue-created', async (issue) => {
if (issue.type === 'feature' && WORKFLOW_MODE === 'auto') {
await workflowOrchestrator.executeWorkflow({
issueId: issue.id,
projectPath: process.cwd(),
mode: 'auto',
});
}
});

// Update issue on workflow completion
events.on('workflow:completed', async (data) => {
await beadsService.updateIssue(data.issueId, {
status: 'completed',
summary: data.result.summary,
});
});
```

Update documentation to match actual Beads integration implementation.

The code sample contains three critical errors:

  1. Missing projectPath parameter: beadsService.updateIssue() requires three parameters (projectPath, issueId, updates), not two. The documented call will fail.

  2. Invalid field name: The summary field does not exist in UpdateBeadsIssueInput. Valid fields are: title, description, status, type, priority, and labels.

  3. Non-existent event: The workflow:completed event is defined in the event types but is never emitted anywhere in the codebase. Listening for it will not work. The actual Beads events available are beads:issue-created, beads:issue-updated, beads:epic-started, beads:epic-completed, beads:task-ready, beads:task-blocked, and others—but not workflow:completed.

Correct the code example to use the actual BeadsService API and replace the non-existent workflow event with an appropriate Beads event.

🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In docs/WORKFLOW_ORCHESTRATION_GUIDE.md around lines 396 to 419, the Beads
integration example is incorrect: replace the non-existent "workflow:completed"
listener with a real Beads event (e.g., "beads:issue-updated"), call
beadsService.updateIssue with the required three parameters (projectPath,
issueId, updates) — pass projectPath (e.g., process.cwd()) as the first argument
— and use valid UpdateBeadsIssueInput fields (replace the nonexistent summary
field with an allowed field such as description or title, plus
status:'completed' as needed); update the code sample accordingly so it compiles
and matches the actual BeadsService API and emitted events.

Greptile Summary

This PR implements a Skills/Hooks workflow orchestration system and associated services. However, the PR contains critical security vulnerabilities that must be addressed before merging.

Critical Security Issues

  • Remote Code Execution (RCE): The hooks system uses AsyncFunction constructor to execute arbitrary JavaScript from user-provided strings without sandboxing (hooks-manager.ts:220). Combined with unauthenticated API endpoints, this allows anyone with API access to execute arbitrary code on the server.
  • No Authentication: The /api/hooks endpoints lack authentication middleware, exposing hook registration to unauthenticated users.
  • Command Injection: Default hooks use execSync with unsanitized context.projectPath, creating command injection risk if paths contain shell metacharacters.
  • Documentation Encourages Vulnerabilities: The HOOKS_GUIDE.md demonstrates these insecure patterns without security warnings.

PR Title/Description Mismatch

The PR title mentions "Beads autonomous memory system" but no Beads-related files were changed in this PR. The actual changes implement Skills (Research, Implementation, CI/CD, Workflow Orchestrator) and Hooks (pre-task, post-task, pre-commit). This appears to be a commit/PR description error.

Architecture Changes

  • Hooks System: Lifecycle hooks with blocking mode, priority ordering, and timeout support
  • Skills System: Four services (Research, Implementation, CI/CD, Workflow Orchestrator) with MCP integration
  • Event-Driven: Comprehensive event emission for monitoring and coordination
  • Workflow Orchestration: Multi-phase workflows with checkpoint system (currently placeholder approval mechanism)

Other Issues

  • Type inconsistency: HookMode only allows 'blocking' but test uses 'non-blocking'
  • Placeholder approval mechanism in workflow orchestrator (auto-approves after 1s)
  • Missing authentication checks on critical endpoints

Confidence Score: 0/5

  • This PR contains critical remote code execution vulnerabilities and must not be merged without significant security fixes
  • Score of 0 (critical issues) due to: (1) RCE vulnerability via AsyncFunction execution of arbitrary user code, (2) unauthenticated API endpoints exposing code execution, (3) command injection risks in default hooks, (4) documentation that encourages insecure patterns. These are production-breaking security issues that allow complete server compromise.
  • apps/server/src/lib/hooks-manager.ts (RCE vulnerability), apps/server/src/routes/hooks/index.ts (missing auth), apps/server/src/services/hooks-service.ts (command injection), docs/HOOKS_GUIDE.md (insecure examples)

Important Files Changed

Filename Overview
apps/server/src/lib/hooks-manager.ts Critical security vulnerability: uses AsyncFunction constructor to execute arbitrary code strings from user input without sandboxing
apps/server/src/services/hooks-service.ts Uses require() in default hook implementations which could expose server internals; validation only checks syntax
apps/server/src/routes/hooks/index.ts HTTP API exposes hook creation with no authentication checks, allowing arbitrary code execution
docs/HOOKS_GUIDE.md Documentation encourages insecure patterns by showing execSync and require usage in hook examples without security warnings
apps/server/src/index.ts Server initialization adds hooks and skills routes but appears to lack authentication middleware on these critical endpoints
apps/server/tests/unit/lib/hooks-manager.test.ts Unit tests for hooks manager; test uses invalid mode: 'non-blocking' value (type only allows 'blocking')
