Issue for this PR

Closes #1200
Closes #1202
Closes #1207

Two commits, both in resolve.ts, both blocking the same rig. They are kept in one PR deliberately: a fourth PR would make the stack four deep on someone else's root (see below), and the diffs are small enough to read together.

Stack warning — please read before merging anything in this chain.
fix/driver-load-cwd-prefix (#1201) → fix/native-driver-resolution (#1192) → fix/warehouse-driver-bootstrap (#1122) → main.

That is three deep, and the root (#1122) is @sahrizvi's, not mine. If #1122 is rebased, force-pushed, or squash-merged, both #1192 and this PR need rebasing, and a squash-merge of #1122 will make #1192's diff misread. I did not want to restructure someone else's PR to suit mine, so I am flagging it rather than acting on it.

This change genuinely depends on #1122 — it modifies resolve.ts, which #1122 creates; on main today the code path does not exist. But it is small, and folding it into #1192 would take the stack from three deep to two. I have no attachment to it being its own PR. That call belongs to whoever is driving #1192, or to Anand.

What does this PR do?

The bug. A globally installed CLI (npm install -g, package tree under /usr/lib/node_modules/altimate-code) run from an unrelated working directory could not load any warehouse driver — 8 of 8 trials on a cold VM, against a build that already contained #1122 and #1192:

DuckDB driver found at duckdb but failed to load: ENOENT: no such file or directory,
open '<cwd>/usr/lib/node_modules/altimate-code/node_modules/duckdb/package.json'

The file exists at that path without the <cwd> prefix. Ambient resolution concatenated the working directory onto an already-absolute path. We cannot change that runtime behaviour — but it names the correct location in the error, and that is better evidence of where the package lives than anything we can infer.

searchRootsFromError() now mines the absolute paths an ambient failure quotes, repairs a concatenated working directory, and searches the enclosing node_modules ahead of the inferred roots. repairCwdPrefixedPath() is deliberately conservative — it fires only when the named path is absent, is genuinely prefixed by the working directory, and the de-prefixed remainder exists on disk. That last condition is what keeps a legitimately nested <cwd>/node_modules/… from being mangled, and it means a nonsense path contributes nothing.

The message was the second half of the bug. found at duckdb is loadFailure(driver, specifier, …) echoing the bare specifier, not a path the resolver returned. It reads as "we found it and it would not load" for a package that was never located at all — which is why this was first diagnosed as a load-path bug rather than a search-coverage one. It also routes around the good DriverNotInstalledError text #1192 added, because an ENOENT-shaped ambient error sets ambientBroken and takes the other branch.

Both sites that produced that wording now say what actually happened: the default module resolution failed, here is where we looked, and — when there was one — here is the on-disk copy we also tried. loadFailure is kept for the case where we do have a real path.

I preserved #1122's deliberate choice to lead with the ambient error when both copies are broken ("it is the copy the runtime would normally pick"); only the claim that the specifier is a location is gone.

Second commit — concurrent installs corrupt each other (#1202). The managed driver directory is shared by every CLI process on the machine, and installsInFlight is a module-level Map, so it serialises installs within one process and cannot see any other. Eight CLIs starting together each ran npm install --save over the same tree:

npm install failed (exit 217) … ENOTEMPTY …
  rmdir /root/.local/share/altimate-code/drivers/node_modules/duckdb/…

This is not benchmark-specific — two terminals, a CI matrix on one runner, or an editor integration beside a shell session all hit it, and the visible result is a driver reporting itself broken on a machine where nothing is wrong.

withInstallLock takes a cross-process lock before mutating. mkdir is atomic and fails EEXIST when the directory exists on both POSIX and Windows, which makes a lock directory the portable primitive here; it lives beside the install directory so npm never treats it as stray package content. After acquiring, readiness is re-checked — the peer that held the lock has usually just installed the thing everyone queued for, so most contenders return "already present" instead of running a second npm. Stale locks are broken two ways because neither alone suffices: a dead owner (only meaningful on the same host) and age (the only signal for a lock left by another host sharing a home directory). On timeout the install proceeds unlocked rather than failing — a racing install is recoverable and the readiness check afterwards is authoritative, whereas refusing to install because a peer is slow turns contention into a hard error.

Also: diagnostics on load failures. Two separate investigations have now diagnosed a driver-load failure from the error text alone and got it wrong, because the text named a path without saying what the process's own view of the filesystem was. Load failures now carry cwd, execPath, and an explicit note when a named path does not exist but its de-prefixed form does.

How did you verify your code works?

In the shape it occurs in, not in unit tests alone.

A probe compiled with the production Bun.build options from script/build.ts (external driver packages, autoloadPackageJson: true), laid out as a real global install — <prefix>/lib/node_modules/altimate-code/bin/altimate with a real npm install duckdb into the package (not a hand-built tree; my first synthetic attempt was missing @mapbox/node-pre-gyp and failed for an unrelated reason) — run from an unrelated cwd with no NODE_PATH and no ALTIMATE_BIN_DIR:

--- BASELINE (#1122 + #1192, unmodified) ---
loadDriver: FAILED DuckDB driver found at duckdb but failed to load: ENOENT: no such file
or directory, open '<cwd><abs>/global-prefix/lib/node_modules/altimate-code/node_modules/duckdb/package.json'

--- WITH FIX ---
loadDriver: OK, Database is function

8 fresh processes with the fix: 8/8 load the driver, matching the rig's 8/8 failures.

A green bun test --cwd packages/drivers is not evidence about resolution behaviour, and I did not treat it as such. That run has the drivers package's own node_modules reachable throughout, so a bare import("duckdb") succeeds there no matter what the resolver does — my first baseline attempt passed for exactly that reason and was worthless. Only a compiled binary (bunfs) removes that path and lets the baseline fail honestly. A colleague independently hit the same trap on a 140-pass run, so it is worth stating plainly rather than leaving a reviewer to wonder. Every resolution claim above comes from a compiled binary, never from bun in-tree.

Two things I found while reproducing, which correct the framing of the original report:

  • A faithful global-install layout on its own does not reproduce it. With the binary inside the package tree, the execPath walk-up finds the driver and everything works — I verified that end to end, including a real query returning a row. The trigger is an ENOENT-shaped ambient error combined with a binary outside the tree. So "global npm install" is not by itself the missing coverage; the ENOENT shape is.
  • found at duckdb was read as "resolution succeeded, loading re-anchored to cwd". It is not — nothing had been found, and the reported ENOENT is the ambient attempt, which we surface even after trying a different path. The wording caused the misdiagnosis.
Gate Result
bun run typecheck 13/13 successful
analyze.ts --markers --base origin/main --strict ok — all custom code properly marked
bun run lint 5903 warnings, 1 error — byte-identical to main's own baseline; the error is the known pre-existing consistent-return in packages/http-recorder/test/record-replay.test.ts
packages/drivers full suite 273 pass, 0 fail
packages/opencode test/altimate 4226 pass, 0 fail (151 files)
bun run typecheck (forced, no cache) 13/13 successful

Eight new tests against real directories on disk, because the whole mechanism is path existence. They cover the repair (fires; declines when the path exists; declines on a legitimately nested path; declines when the remainder is absent), the harvesting, the end-to-end load from a harvested root, and the message no longer claiming found at duckdb.

Concurrency (#1202), verified with real processes. The exclusion claim is about separate processes, so the test spawns four and asserts their critical sections never interleave. The control confirms the test actually bites — the same four processes without the lock interleave completely:

enter 1     enter 3     enter 0     enter 2     exit 0     exit 1     exit 2     exit 3

which the assertion rejects on the second enter. 10/10 repeat runs green. The other four tests cover the unlocked-on-timeout path, both stale-lock signals, and release on throw.

A flaky test you may see, which is not mine. test/altimate/tools/sample-setup.test.ts intermittently fails 1–3 of its 8 tests at exactly 5000ms. Its execFile probe for the dbt runtime uses a 5000ms timeout and the test's own timeout is also 5000ms, so under machine load it races itself. It fails the same way on this branch with my commits stashed, sample_setup touches none of the code I changed, and it passes 8/8 on an idle machine. Pre-existing, worth its own fix, not this PR.

Windows shapes and the multi-peer wait (review round 3). Three gaps, each pinned by a test that fails with its own fix reverted — 1 of 10 for each Windows shape, 1 of 14 for the wait:

  • installLockPath special-cased the POSIX and drive-letter roots but not a UNC share root, so \\server\share became \\server\share.lock — a different network share, meaning two processes installing into the share would not share a lock at all.
  • The path-harvesting regex accepted POSIX and drive-letter absolutes only, so a Windows error quoting \\server\share\node_modules\duckdb\package.json yielded no roots and a driver on a share stayed unfindable despite the error naming its exact location. The pattern is now the named export quotedAbsolutePaths, testable from any platform.
  • The lock budget was per wait, so it only ever outlasted one holder; with three or more contenders the last one's deadline expired mid-install and it fell through to an unlocked performInstall. It is now per holder, with a bounded number of extensions.

The chdir arm was hardened after review, and the reason generalises. It originally asked for duckdb — which the repo's own packages/drivers/node_modules satisfies through the execPath and module-location roots regardless of what the resolver does, and which no environment isolation can suppress. It would have passed while proving nothing. It now uses specifiers that exist nowhere but the tree each test builds and asserts on an export marker, so a pass establishes which root satisfied the load rather than that something, somewhere, was found.

Not verified by me:

  • Windows, on Windows. The lock-path and harvesting logic now cover POSIX, drive-letter and UNC shapes and are unit-tested for all three, but every one of those tests ran on macOS. They are string-level assertions that do not touch the filesystem, which is what makes them meaningful off-platform — and also what stops them proving anything about real UNC I/O.
  • The exact runtime conditions that make ambient resolution emit ENOENT rather than ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND. On my machine the compiled binary reports the latter; I reproduced the ENOENT path by injecting it through the importer parameter loadOptionalDriver already exposes for testing. The fix does not depend on knowing the trigger — it keys on the error naming a repairable path — but that half is inference, not observation.
  • Whether any other call site depends on the old found at <specifier> wording. I grepped and found none, but string matching on error text is easy to miss.
  • I could not reproduce the originally reported failure on a Linux VM, and want that on the record. On a fresh Debian 12 GCE instance I built the exact reported shape — npm install -g tree at /usr/lib/node_modules/altimate-code, a real npm install duckdb beside it, the manifest declaring duckdb, run as root from an unrelated cwd, compiled binary with production options — and every load strategy succeeded: bare-specifier ambient import failed as expected, but import(file://abs), createRequire(abs), a cwd-anchored createRequire, and the real loadOptionalDriver all returned a working Database. So Bun is not re-anchoring absolute paths in that configuration, and the remaining difference between that VM and the rig is not yet identified. The fix in the first commit is still correct and still removes a real failure mode; I just cannot claim it closes the rig's specific case, and the new diagnostics exist so the next occurrence answers the question instead of costing another round trip.

Note

Medium Risk
Changes optional driver discovery (including paths mined from errors) with explicit workspace fail-closed rules, and shared-directory install locking that can still proceed unlocked on timeout—both affect reliability and the credential-boundary around project node_modules.

Overview
Fixes warehouse driver loading when ambient resolution fails but the error quotes a real path (including cwd concatenated onto an absolute path), and stops concurrent CLIs from corrupting the shared managed driver tree.

Resolution fallback: After a failed bare import, loadOptionalDriver / loadOptionalPackage now append searchRootsFromError: parse quoted absolute paths (POSIX, drive, UNC), optionally repairCwdPrefixedPath, walk enclosingNodeModulesRoots, and search those node_modules after trusted driverSearchRoots() (managed install still wins). Harvested roots are blocked for workspace cwd/ancestor node_modules (realpath-aware). resolveOptionalPackage no longer anchors on process.cwd() when it may throw; it uses safeCwd() or os.tmpdir().

Errors: Ambient non–not-found failures use ambientLoadFailure (no more “found at duckdb”) plus loadDiagnostics (cwd, execPath, cwd-prefix hint).

Install concurrency: withInstallLock (directory lock beside the install dir, stale recovery, token-safe release) wraps installOptionalDriver; lock wait timeout tracks install timeout. warehouse_install_driver requests external_directory permission for <dir>.lock/* as well as the driver dir.

New tests cover chdir independence, cwd-prefix harvesting, Windows/UNC shapes, and multi-process locking.

Changes

The driver resolver now recovers absolute paths from errors, supports Windows path shapes, and remains independent of the current working directory. Driver installs now use cross-process lock handovers, stale-lock recovery, guarded release, and lock-directory permissions.

Driver resolution and installation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Resolution recovery and diagnostics
packages/drivers/src/resolve.ts, packages/drivers/test/resolve-cwd-prefix.test.ts, packages/drivers/test/resolve-chdir.test.ts, packages/drivers/test/resolve-windows-shapes.test.ts
The resolver extracts POSIX, drive-letter, and UNC paths, repairs cwd-prefixed paths, harvests eligible node_modules roots, preserves managed-install precedence, and handles unavailable or changing cwd state.
Cross-process install locking
packages/drivers/src/resolve.ts, packages/drivers/test/install-lock.test.ts, packages/drivers/test/resolve-windows-shapes.test.ts
Install locks preserve filesystem roots, detect owner handovers, renew wait deadlines, recover stale locks, bound timeout fallback, and avoid deleting successor locks.
Lock-directory permission wiring
packages/opencode/src/altimate/tools/warehouse-install-driver.ts, packages/opencode/test/altimate/warehouse-install-driver-permission.test.ts
Permission requests include the derived lock directory in patterns, always-approved paths, and metadata.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to cd250

The PR improves driver discovery and coordinates shared installations, but the current implementation can still execute a driver from an untrusted path named by a runtime error, and lock timeout or recovery paths can allow concurrent processes to mutate the same driver tree. These create material security and availability risks that should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging.

Explanation

The changes address #1200 through error-path harvesting and corrected diagnostics, and address #1207 through safe handling of unavailable working directories. The #1202 implementation adds cross-process locking, stale recovery, readiness checks, and timeout fallback, but the description explicitly acknowledges unresolved lock-protocol races and states that the implementation is not a proof of mutual exclusion.

Resolution

Resolve the acknowledged #1202 lock-protocol gaps before merge. Use a locking design that guarantees mutual exclusion during stale-claim races and peer handovers, such as the proposed O_EXCL sentinel approach in #1206, and add tests or evidence for those cases. The #1200 and #1207 requirements are otherwise covered.

A globally installed CLI (`npm install -g`, package tree under
`/usr/lib/node_modules/altimate-code`) run from an unrelated working directory
could not load any warehouse driver — 8 of 8 trials on a cold VM:

    DuckDB driver found at duckdb but failed to load: ENOENT: no such file or
    directory, open '<cwd>/usr/lib/node_modules/altimate-code/node_modules/duckdb/package.json'

The file exists at that path without the `<cwd>` prefix. Ambient resolution
concatenated the working directory onto an already-absolute path, which is a
runtime behaviour we cannot change — but it names the correct location in the
error, and that is better evidence than anything we can infer.

`searchRootsFromError` now mines the paths an ambient failure quotes, repairs a
concatenated working directory, and searches the enclosing `node_modules`
first. `repairCwdPrefixedPath` is deliberately conservative: it fires only when
the named path is absent, is genuinely prefixed by the working directory, and
the de-prefixed remainder exists on disk, so a legitimately nested
`<cwd>/node_modules/…` is left alone.

The message was the second half of the bug. `found at duckdb` named the bare
specifier as though it were a location, so a package that had never been
located anywhere read as a load failure at a known path — which is why this was
diagnosed as a load bug rather than a search-coverage one. Both sites that
produced it now say what actually happened: the default module resolution
failed, here is where we looked, and here is the on-disk copy we also tried.

Verified in the shape it occurs in, not in unit tests alone: a probe compiled
with the production `Bun.build` options (`external`, `autoloadPackageJson`),
laid out as a real `npm install -g` tree with a real `npm install duckdb`, run
from an unrelated cwd with no `NODE_PATH` and no `ALTIMATE_BIN_DIR`.

    before: 8/8 fail, reproducing the reported message verbatim
    after:  8/8 load the driver

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01VqnuBDGkh1ZT65Ti7e6DHZ
The managed driver directory is shared by every CLI process on the machine,
and `installsInFlight` is an in-process Map — it cannot see other processes.
Eight CLIs starting together each ran `npm install` over the same tree:

    npm install failed (exit 217) … ENOTEMPTY …
      rmdir /root/.local/share/altimate-code/drivers/node_modules/duckdb/…

That is not benchmark-specific. Any concurrent use of the CLI hits it, and the
result is a driver that appears broken on a machine where nothing is wrong.

`withInstallLock` takes a cross-process lock before mutating the directory.
`mkdir` is atomic and fails EEXIST when the directory exists on both POSIX and
Windows, which makes a lock directory the portable primitive; it lives beside
the install directory so npm never sees it as stray package content. Stale
locks are broken two ways, because neither alone is sufficient: a dead owner on
this host, and age, which is the only signal available for a lock left by
another host sharing a home directory.

After acquiring, readiness is re-checked. The peer that held the lock has
usually just installed the very thing we queued for, so most contenders return
"already present" rather than running a second npm over the same tree.

On timeout the install proceeds unlocked rather than failing: a racing install
is recoverable and the readiness check afterwards is authoritative, whereas
refusing to install because a peer is slow turns contention into a hard error.

Also adds cwd/execPath and a cwd-prefix note to driver load failures. Two
separate investigations have now diagnosed a load failure from the error text
alone and got it wrong, because the text named a path without saying what the
process's own view of the filesystem was.

The exclusion claim is about separate processes, so the test spawns separate
processes — an in-process test cannot establish it. The control confirms the
test bites: the same four processes without the lock interleave completely
(four enters before any exit). 10/10 repeat runs green.

Rebased onto main and retargeted — force-push explained.

The stack this PR sat on was collapsed by squash-merges, so the base had to move. What happened, in order:

Leaving this PR based on fix/native-driver-resolution would have made its diff re-include ~18 commits' worth of content that main already holds as a squash commit, so the PR would have misread entirely.

What I did: git rebase --onto origin/main 212f4546 fix/driver-load-cwd-prefix — replaying only this PR's own two commits — then force-pushed with --force-with-lease and retargeted the base to main.

4f0abf327f16ac5e5e03. Nothing was squashed, dropped, or amended in content.

Verification that the rebase is faithful. I diffed the pre-rebase patch (212f4546...4f0abf32) against the post-rebase patch (origin/main...16ac5e5e03). Ignoring blob hashes and hunk headers, they are byte-identical. The only change is that hunk offsets shift by exactly 8 lines, which is precisely the net size of #1192's hunk that is absent from main. GitHub now computes the same 3 files / +558 / −6 as before the rebase, and both commits survive:

Neither commit is redundant against merged main. I checked rather than assumed: searchRootsFromError, repairCwdPrefixedPath, withInstallLock, ambientLoadFailure and loadDiagnostics all have zero occurrences in main's resolve.ts, and installsInFlight is still a module-level Map there (line 726) — so the cross-process install race in #1202 is live on main today.


⚠️ Separate finding for whoever owns #1192 — its fix is currently orphaned and not on main.

Because #1192 merged into fix/warehouse-driver-bootstrap rather than main, and #1122 (the only PR from that branch to main) had already merged 43 seconds earlier, #1192's change never reached main. Concretely, main's DriverNotInstalledError still emits the bare Searched 0 locations: message that #1192 fixed. The improved text lives only on fix/warehouse-driver-bootstrap, which has no open PR.

This is not something I should fix from inside this PR, and I deliberately did not fold #1192's commit into this branch — that would put someone else's already-merged work into my diff. It needs its own PR to main. Flagging it rather than acting on it.

It is also why packages/drivers reports 236 pass here instead of the 238 in the description: the two missing tests are #1192's own, and they are not on main. Not a regression.

Gates, re-run on the rebased branch:

Gate Result
bun run typecheck 13/13 successful
analyze.ts --markers --base origin/main --strict ok — no upstream-shared files modified
bun run lint 5903 warnings, 1 error — identical to main's own baseline, measured by checking out main and re-running. The error is the known pre-existing consistent-return in packages/http-recorder/test/record-replay.test.ts. The 7 resolve.ts diagnostics are present on main too, merely shifted.
packages/drivers 236 pass, 0 fail
packages/opencode test/altimate 4226 pass, 0 fail (151 files)

The pre-rebase head is preserved at backup/1201-pre-rebase (4f0abf327f53a67bd0cd22ed15adb549793f5ad2) if anyone needs to diff against it; I will delete that branch once this lands.

…e the install lock hold

Review findings on #1201, grouped by what they actually break.

**Harvested roots crossed a deliberate security boundary.** `driverSearchRoots()`
refuses project and ancestor `node_modules` because importing a workspace-
controlled SDK during a warehouse read/test bypasses the permission boundary and
can expose resolved credentials. `searchRootsFromError()` mined any absolute path
an error quoted and prepended it, so an ambient failure naming a project-local
`node_modules` routed straight around that invariant. Harvested roots are now
filtered through the same exclusion.

**They also preempted the managed installation.** Prepending meant a stale or
broken copy the runtime happened to name won over the driver we installed, which
inverts the documented "managed install dir comes first" ordering. Trusted roots
now come first and harvested roots are appended, which still recovers the
original failure: a harvested root is reached whenever the roots ahead of it
resolve nothing.

**Windows never harvested anything.** The extraction regex accepts `C:/…` and
`C:\…`, but the `node_modules` marker is built from `path.sep`, so a
forward-slash path could never match a backslash marker. `enclosingNodeModulesRoot`
normalises separators, and takes `sep` as a parameter so the Windows behaviour is
tested from a POSIX host rather than asserted. `repairCwdPrefixedPath` now also
handles the two Windows concatenation shapes, which have no separator to carry.

**The lock silently degraded to unlocked in exactly the cold-start case it exists
for.** `<dir>.lock` sits beside the managed directory, and on a fresh machine
nothing has created the XDG data directory yet — `performInstall` is the first
thing that does, and it runs after the lock attempt. The non-recursive `mkdir`
failed ENOENT, took the "cannot lock" branch, and dropped every concurrent CLI
into an unlocked install. The parent is now created first.

**Stale-lock recovery could admit two installers.** Two processes could both
judge a lock stale, and deleting by pathname let the loser delete the winner's
fresh lock. Claiming is now a `rename`, which exactly one process can win.

**A lock could be released out from under its successor.** An owner whose lock
was broken as stale would, on the way out, delete the lock a peer had since
taken. Release now only removes a lock still carrying its own token.

**Age aged out live installs.** `isStaleLock` applied the age check
unconditionally, so a live same-host owner running a slow native build past
`staleAfterMs` had its lock broken and a peer entered — reintroducing the very
ENOTEMPTY race. Where liveness is decidable (owner on this host) it is now the
only signal; age applies only where it cannot be (no readable owner, or another
host sharing a home directory).

**The lock path was outside the approved permission pattern.** The tool asks for
`external_directory` on `<dir>/*`, but the lock is the sibling `<dir>.lock` — so
creating, writing and removing it mutated an external path the user never
approved. It is now included in the request.

**Two unrelated cwd faults on the failure path.** `process.cwd()` throws once the
working directory is removed, and both `loadDiagnostics` and — pre-existing —
`resolveOptionalPackage`'s `createRequire` anchor called it unguarded while a
driver failure was being formatted, replacing the real diagnosis with an
unrelated `uv_cwd` ENOENT. Both are guarded; the anchor never needed cwd, since
resolution is driven by the explicit `paths`.

Tests. The two end-to-end resolution tests used the specifier `duckdb`, which the
repository's own `packages/drivers/node_modules` can satisfy no matter what the
harvesting code does — they passed while proving nothing, and would have kept
passing after the reordering above. They now use specifiers that exist nowhere
but the tree the test builds, and assert on an export marker, so they establish
which root actually satisfied the load. The cross-process exclusion test gained a
start barrier: without one, a scheduler that ran the four children serially
satisfied the no-overlap assertion even with a completely broken lock. The
control confirms the barriered test still bites — four unlocked children
interleave completely (enter 1, enter 2, enter 3, enter 0) and the assertion
rejects on the second enter. 9 repeat runs, 72/72 green.

Not verified: Windows on hardware. The separator handling is now unit-tested
through the `sep` parameter, but nothing here ran on Windows.

… root

Second review round. One of these is a bug the previous commit introduced.

**The stale-claim branch could spin forever.** `claimStaleLock` returned without
reporting failure and the loop `continue`d unconditionally, skipping both the
deadline check and the sleep. A claim that fails persistently — a lock owned by
another user, or a container that permits inspection but not rename — meant
`mkdir` EEXIST, judged stale, claim fails, repeat, at full CPU with no timeout.
The claim now reports success, and only a successful claim skips the wait; a
failed one falls through to the normal deadline-and-sleep path. The regression
test hangs rather than fails if that bound is lost again.

**Stale recovery could still move a live lock aside.** The rename made two
cleaners safe against each other, but not against the stale→fresh transition: a
peer could release and re-acquire between the staleness verdict and the rename.
The claim now re-reads the owner record before renaming, and — because nothing
makes "read the owner" and "rename" one operation — verifies what it actually
moved afterwards, restoring it if a peer had re-taken the lock. That narrows the
window rather than closing it, which is stated plainly rather than implied.

**Liveness-only staleness could wedge the lock permanently.** Making a live
same-host owner immune to age fixed the interrupted-install bug but introduced a
worse one: `processExists` answers "some process holds this pid", so a crashed
owner whose pid is recycled by an unrelated long-lived process would hold the
lock forever, with every later install waiting out its timeout and then running
unlocked. A live owner is now protected only up to a backstop far beyond any
real npm run (1h default), which bounds the wedge without interrupting an
install.

**Release could delete a successor's lock during a window the token cannot
cover.** The directory is created before `owner.json` is written, so a successor
that re-took the lock in that window holds a live lock carrying no token, and the
token check let it be removed. Release now also compares the lock directory's
inode, captured at acquire.

**Every path this mechanism writes now sits under one approved prefix.** Stale
recovery renamed the lock to a sibling of the container, which the tool's
`<dir>.lock/*` permission does not cover. The atomic lock moved inside the
container as `<dir>.lock/held`, and claims rename to `<dir>.lock/stale-…`, so
both are covered by the pattern already brokered.

**The lock wait could be shorter than the install it waits on.** The two
timeouts were independent constants: raising the install timeout past the lock
wait meant a contender gave up while the holder's npm was still running and then
installed unlocked over the same tree. The lock wait is now derived from the
install timeout.

**Nested dependency paths harvested the wrong root.** A quoted path such as
`/opt/node_modules/duckdb/node_modules/node-addon-api/…` yielded only the
innermost `node_modules`, which holds the dependency — while the driver being
looked for sits in the outer one, so it was never found. All enclosing roots are
now harvested, innermost first, each subject to the same workspace exclusion.

**The workspace exclusion compared lexical paths while resolution followed
symlinks.** A link whose lexical path sits outside the working directory but
whose target sits inside it passed the check and would have been imported.
Containment now compares real paths, falling back to lexical when the link
cannot be followed.

P2 Badge Block new acquisitions while restoring a stale-lock claim

If the stale owner releases and a new owner acquires between the pre-rename holder check and renameSync, the cleaner moves that new live lock aside; a third process can then create lockDir before this restoration runs. The restore consequently fails, the moved live lock is deleted, and both new owners execute the install section concurrently. The fresh evidence beyond the prior stale-claim thread is this new mismatch/restore branch, which explicitly leaves the lock pathname available to a third acquirer while deciding whether to restore it; stale recovery needs an acquisition gate that contenders also observe.

Valid, and I am leaving this open rather than claiming it fixed.

You are right that the restore branch introduces its own window: between the mismatched rename and the restore, the lock pathname is free, so a third contender can create it, the restore then fails, and the moved live lock is deleted.

What I did in 53a196d narrows the original window (re-read before the rename, verify what was actually moved after it, restore when it was not the lock judged stale) but it cannot close it, and stacking another compensating step here would keep adding branches without reaching correctness. As you put it, stale recovery needs an acquisition gate contenders also observe — which the directory-rename protocol cannot provide.

The fix is a different primitive: an O_EXCL sentinel file whose content identifies the acquisition, so "is this still the lock I judged stale" and "claim it" become one atomic operation, with contenders blocked on the same object throughout. Another reviewer reached the same conclusion from the inode-portability angle, so it is the same redesign.

That is a larger change than this PR should absorb, and it wants its own tests and its own review rather than being appended to a stack of incremental patches. Flagging it here so it is not mistaken for fixed.

P2 Badge Acquire the cross-process lock before checking readiness

When another process is performing a forced repair, a normal caller can reach this check before the repair deletes the existing package and immediately return alreadyPresent without observing the cross-process lock. The repair can then remove the package, fail, or leave it temporarily unavailable while the caller proceeds believing it is ready; move the readiness check inside the cross-process critical section so repairs and observations are serialized across processes, not only through the process-local installsInFlight map.

Valid, and I am leaving this open as out of scope for this PR.

The reasoning holds: the pre-lock readiness check at this site is guarded only by the process-local installsInFlight map, so a normal caller can observe alreadyPresent while another process's forced repair is about to delete the package, and proceed believing a driver is ready that is about to stop being so.

Two reasons for not moving it here. First, it is pre-existing structure — that early check predates this PR, which added the lock below it rather than changing what happens above it — so this is a gap the change reveals rather than one it creates. Second, moving the readiness check inside the critical section makes every startup that already has its drivers take a filesystem lock before it can answer "already installed", which is the common path by a wide margin; that trade needs measuring, not assuming.

The forced-repair case is also the narrow one: force is only set when a driver resolves but fails to import, which is not a routine state. Worth its own change with its own reasoning about the cost, rather than a late edit to this stack.

P2 Badge Track the npm process before reclaiming a dead owner

If the CLI is killed while npm is running, this immediately treats its lock as stale based only on the CLI PID, even though runNpm starts npm in a detached process group on POSIX and that subprocess can continue mutating the managed directory after its parent disappears. The next CLI then removes the lock and starts another npm over the same tree, recreating the corruption the lock is intended to prevent; stale detection must account for the installer process group or otherwise ensure the mutating descendants are gone before reclaiming the lock.

Valid, and I am leaving this open.

The mechanism is real: runNpm starts npm in a detached process group on POSIX, so killing the CLI leaves a subprocess still mutating the managed directory, while stale detection asks only about the CLI's own pid. The next CLI sees a dead owner, reclaims immediately, and starts a second npm over a tree the first is still writing.

I am not fixing it here because a correct fix is not small. The lock would need to record the installer's process group (and the reclaimer to check the group, not the pid), which drags in platform-specific process-group handling — and on Windows there is no equivalent, so it would need a separate mechanism to be more than POSIX-only. That belongs with the locking redesign two other threads on this PR converge on, not bolted onto the current primitive.

Worth noting what this PR does and does not change here: before it there was no cross-process lock at all, so a killed CLI leaving a live npm behind was already unguarded. The change does not introduce the exposure, and it does not close it either.

WARNING: releaseInstallLock's inode check relies on an unverified cross-platform guarantee

The ino = fs.statSync(lockDir).ino captured at acquire time is the only defense stopping a token-less release from deleting a successor's live lock in the mkdirwriteFileSync(owner.json) window. st_ino is a per-filesystem identity, not a portable one: on Windows (which this PR explicitly did not test) and on some overlay/network filesystems ino can be constant or reused, in which case the !== ino guard never fires and this branch silently reverts to the pathname-based deletion it was added to prevent. The failure mode is the concurrent-npm corruption the lock exists to stop, so consider a portable directory identity — e.g. an O_EXCL sentinel file created atomically with the directory (the author's own suggested end state) — instead of relying on the inode alone.

Valid caveat, and I am leaving this open rather than papering over it.

You are right that st_ino is a per-filesystem identity, not a portable one, and that the failure is silent: where the inode is constant or promptly reused the guard never fires and the branch quietly reverts to pathname deletion. Windows in particular is untested on this PR, as the description says.

To be precise about what it does buy: the inode check only runs when the owner record carries no token, which is the narrow mkdirwriteFileSync(owner.json) window. Everywhere else the token comparison is authoritative and portable. So this is a best-effort narrowing of an already-narrow window, not the mechanism the lock rests on — but you are right that it is the only thing standing there, and that its guarantee is unverified on the platforms it would matter on.

Your suggested end state is the same one I reached from the stale-claim race in a parallel thread: an O_EXCL sentinel file created atomically, carrying the acquisition identity, replacing both the directory rename and the inode check. That is a redesign of the locking primitive rather than another patch on it, and it deserves its own PR and its own tests. I would rather leave this thread open and honest than close it on an inode guarantee I cannot demonstrate.

… absolute

Two narrow fixes from the latest review round.

**The workspace exclusion failed open when `process.cwd()` was unavailable.**
`isWorkspaceRoot` returned false with no working directory to compare against,
so every `node_modules` root an error happened to name was admitted — turning
the one case where the process cannot see its own filesystem into the case with
no boundary at all. It now fails closed: no cwd means no harvested roots. This
was introduced by the guard added two commits ago, which is exactly the sort of
thing a fail-open default hides.

**A filesystem root lost its leading separator when deriving the lock path.**
`installLockPath` stripped every trailing separator, so `/` became the relative
`.lock` and `C:\` the drive-relative `C:.lock`. Two processes started from
different working directories would then take different locks while installing
into the same directory, which is the concurrent-npm mutation the lock exists to
prevent. Roots are now left intact; trailing separators are still stripped
everywhere else so `<dir>/` and `<dir>` agree on one lock.

Gates: typecheck 13/13 (forced); marker check ok; lint 5903 warnings and 1 error,
identical to `main`'s baseline; `packages/drivers` 258 pass; `test/altimate` 4226
pass.

P2 Badge Keep UNC-root locks inside the share

When ALTIMATE_DRIVER_DIR is a Windows UNC share root such as \\server\share\, this special case does not recognize it as a filesystem root and returns \\server\share.lock, which names a different network share rather than a directory inside share. Fresh evidence beyond the earlier filesystem-root report is that the current condition handles only stripped-empty and drive-letter roots, not UNC roots. Unless that separate share happens to exist, lock creation fails and every concurrent installer proceeds unlocked against the same target, reintroducing overlapping npm mutations; detect roots with the platform path parser and place the lock within a UNC share root.

P2 Badge Recognize quoted UNC paths when harvesting roots

On Windows, a runtime error quoting an absolute UNC location such as \\server\share\node_modules\duckdb\package.json contributes no search roots because this regex accepts only slash-prefixed POSIX paths and drive-letter Windows paths. If the driver is installed on a network share and the normal inferred roots cannot locate it, the new recovery path therefore still reports the driver as unavailable even though the error names its exact location; include UNC and extended-length Windows absolute forms in the extraction.

P2 Badge Do not use reusable inodes as lock ownership

When a live holder's lock has been stale-claimed and a successor recreates held but has not yet written owner.json, the filesystem can immediately reuse the deleted directory's inode. This equality then treats the successor as the original acquisition and removes its live lock, allowing a third npm process into the critical section; the added does not delete a successor lock that has no owner record yet test reproduces this failure on the current filesystem. Publish an unrepeatable ownership token before exposing the lock, or otherwise avoid deleting an ownerless successor based only on its inode.

Review status, and one recommendation a reviewer should weigh before merging.

Three rounds of bot review have been worked. 40 threads addressed and resolved, each with a reply saying what changed and how it was checked, or an honest reason for declining. 11 remain open deliberately — they are listed below rather than resolved, because I did not fix them.

Fixed across d13f070, 53a196d and 836faa7, grouped by what was actually broken:

  • Trust boundary. Harvested roots bypassed the project/ancestor exclusion driverSearchRoots() enforces for security, and preempted the managed installation. Now filtered through the same exclusion, compared by real path so a symlink cannot slip through, appended rather than prepended, and failing closed when the working directory cannot be established.
  • Cold start. The lock's container did not exist on a fresh machine, so mkdir failed ENOENT and every concurrent CLI silently ran unlocked — precisely the stampede the lock exists to stop.
  • Lock correctness. A stale-claim branch that could spin at full CPU forever (introduced by my own first round), age expiring live installs, a recycled PID wedging the lock permanently, release deleting a successor's lock, and a lock wait shorter than the install it waits on.
  • Coverage. Nested dependency paths harvested the wrong node_modules; Windows harvested nothing at all because the regex and the separator disagreed; a filesystem root produced a relative lock path.
  • Permissions. Every path the lock mechanism touches now sits under the <dir>.lock/* pattern the install tool already brokers.
  • Diagnostics. A deleted working directory replaced the driver fault with an unrelated uv_cwd ENOENT — including via a pre-existing unguarded process.cwd() in resolveOptionalPackage that a new test exposed.

Two testing problems were worth as much as the code fixes. Both end-to-end resolution tests asked for duckdb, which the repository's own packages/drivers/node_modules can satisfy regardless of what the resolver does — they passed while proving nothing, and would have kept passing after the reordering above. They now use specifiers that exist nowhere but the tree the test builds. The cross-process exclusion test had no start barrier, so serial scheduling satisfied it even with a broken lock; it has one now, and the control confirms it still bites (four unlocked children interleave completely).


The recommendation

The locking primitive wants a redesign, and I do not think it should happen inside this PR.

Five of the eleven open threads — from three independent reviewers — are the same finding reached from different directions: the directory-rename protocol cannot make "is this still the lock I judged stale" and "claim it" a single atomic step, and the inode check covering the mkdirowner.json window rests on st_ino being a stable per-directory identity, which is not portable (Windows, overlay and network filesystems).

Each round of patching this protocol has closed real races and exposed new ones in the compensating branches. That is the signal to change the primitive rather than keep patching it: an O_EXCL sentinel file whose content identifies the acquisition makes claim-and-verify atomic and removes the inode dependency entirely. That deserves its own PR, its own tests, and its own review.

What is on this branch is materially safer than what is on main today, where installsInFlight is a module-level Map and there is no cross-process lock at all. It is not a proof of mutual exclusion under adversarial interleaving, and I would rather say so than have it read as one.

Open threads, all replied to and left open on purpose:

Thread Reason not fixed here
Stale-claim restore window (×3), inode portability (×2) The redesign above. Compensating branches keep generating new races.
Detached npm survives a killed CLI Needs process-group tracking; POSIX-only, and no Windows equivalent. Pre-existing exposure, not introduced here.
Readiness check outside the cross-process lock Pre-existing structure. Moving it makes every already-installed startup take a filesystem lock — a cost that needs measuring.
Lock wait outlasts only one peer Real with 3+ simultaneous contenders. Belongs with the redesign.
UNC roots (×2) Windows-only path shapes, on a change whose Windows behaviour is unverified on hardware.

Gates on 836faa7: typecheck 13/13 (forced, not cached) · marker check ok · lint 5903 warnings + 1 error, byte-identical to main's own baseline, measured by checking out main and re-running (the error is the known pre-existing consistent-return in packages/http-recorder/test/record-replay.test.ts) · packages/drivers 258 pass · test/altimate 4226 pass · all CI checks green.

One test/altimate run showed a single failure that did not reproduce; sample-setup.test.ts passes 24/24 in isolation and the full suite is clean on re-run. That is the known 5000ms self-race, not this change.

Follow-ups filed, so nothing here rests on a comment thread.

To restate the caveat from my previous comment, since it is the thing most likely to be lost as this PR gets longer: what is here is not a proof of mutual exclusion. It is materially safer than main, which has no cross-process lock at all, and the residual races are documented in #1206 rather than closed. Please do not let it be read as stronger than that.

…t `--dir`

Six pilots were spent on a driver-load failure that only appeared under
`--dir`, which calls `process.chdir()` (cli/cmd/run.ts) before any driver is
loaded. Every local verification — and the rig's own pre-flight probe — ran
without a chdir, so a green suite said nothing about the configuration that
actually failed. This is the same class as an `--instance-dir` arm that never
exercised the code it existed to test.

Four tests: resolve before and after a chdir and compare, resolve from a
directory unrelated to the install tree, assert a package present only under
the working directory is never resolved out of it, and check that a chdir
between two resolutions does not change the answer.

They pass on the current resolver, which is the point — this is a guard, not a
bug report. `resolveOptionalPackage` drives resolution from the explicit
`paths` argument rather than from the anchor's base, so the working directory
does not currently reach the result. That is a property worth pinning, because
it is invisible in review and its absence is expensive to diagnose.

Measured, not assumed: on Debian 12, with a binary cross-compiled using the
production compile options against a real `npm install -g` tree and a real
`npm install duckdb`, run as root from an unrelated directory, adding a
`process.chdir()` between process start and driver load changed nothing. Bare
import, `import(file://)`, `createRequire(abs)`, the `__dirname` a loaded CJS
module sees, and `loadOptionalDriver` were byte-identical with and without it,
and all succeeded. So on Bun 1.3.14 a compiled binary does not re-anchor
absolute module paths after a chdir, and chdir alone does not explain the field
failure.

P3: Each test's starting cwd depends on the previous test's afterEach having run, because beforeEach never restores process.chdir(originalCwd). If a test in this file is ever run concurrently (e.g. .concurrent) or afterEach is skipped, the resolution-under-test runs from a stale working directory and the suite reports misleading failures. The sibling resolve tests wrap each process.chdir in per-test try/finally for this reason. Restore the cwd at the start of beforeEach so each test is independent.

P1 Badge Exclude nested roots under ancestor node_modules

When the CLI starts below the project root and the error names a nested dependency root such as /repo/node_modules/host/node_modules/duckdb/..., this equality excludes /repo/node_modules but not /repo/node_modules/host/node_modules; the latter is outside the nested cwd and is therefore returned by searchRootsFromError, allowing workspace-controlled driver code to cross the credential permission boundary. Fresh evidence beyond the earlier workspace-root comment is that descendants of an ancestor node_modules are compared by exact equality rather than containment.

P2 Badge Wait for the current lock holder's install deadline

When processes use different install timeouts—for example, a holder configured for 600 seconds and a default contender—the contender derives its wait only from its own timeout here, stops after 240 seconds, and calls performInstall with acquired === false while the holder's npm process can still be running. Fresh evidence beyond the earlier timeout comment is that tying the wait to the contender's option still does not represent the holder's lifetime, so heterogeneous callers continue to overlap npm mutations.

P2 Badge Canonicalize the target before deriving its lock

When the same physical ALTIMATE_DRIVER_DIR is referenced by its real path in one process and by a symlink to the directory in another, this lexical derivation produces two different sibling lock paths even though npm runs against the same target tree. Both callers can therefore acquire their locks and mutate that tree concurrently; canonicalize the existing target—or otherwise key the lock by physical directory identity—before appending the lock suffix.

…r budget

Three review-round gaps, two of them Windows shapes that a macOS suite cannot
notice on its own.

**`installLockPath` broke on a UNC share root.** It special-cased the POSIX and
drive-letter roots but not `\\server\share`, which stripped to
`\\server\share.lock` — naming a *different network share* rather than anything
inside the directory being locked. Two processes installing into a share would
then take different locks, which is the concurrent npm mutation the lock exists
to prevent. Root detection now covers all three shapes and the lock always
lands inside the root.

**The harvesting regex accepted no UNC path.** A Windows error quoting
`\\server\share\node_modules\duckdb\package.json` yielded no roots at all, so a
driver on a share stayed unfindable even though the error named its exact
location. The pattern is now a named export, so the claim is testable from any
platform instead of resting on inspection.

**The lock wait outlasted only one peer.** Every process counts its deadline
from its own start, so a single budget covers a single holder; with three or
more contenders the last one's deadline expired part-way through somebody
else's install and it fell through to an unlocked `performInstall`. The budget
is now per holder — seeing the lock change hands is proof the queue is moving
rather than wedged — with a bounded number of extensions so a machine that
keeps feeding in contenders cannot block a caller indefinitely.

Each test fails with its own fix reverted and passes with it: 1 of 10 for each
Windows shape, 1 of 14 for the multi-peer wait. The multi-peer test spawns real
processes, holds 400ms against a 600ms budget, and asserts none of the three
ran unlocked. 12/12 repeat runs green.

Also hardens the chdir arm per review. It asked for `duckdb`, which the repo's
own `packages/drivers/node_modules` satisfies through the execPath and
module-location roots no matter what the resolver does — it would have passed
while proving nothing. It now uses specifiers that exist nowhere but the tree
each test builds and asserts on an export marker, so a pass establishes which
root satisfied the load.

P2 Badge Release the lock with an atomic ownership claim

When a lock is eligible for stale reclamation while its original critical section is finishing—for example, on a shared home after staleAfterMs—the original owner can read its matching token here, then a cleaner can rename that lock and a successor can recreate lockDir before this rmSync. The original owner then deletes the successor's live lock, allowing another npm process into the critical section. Fresh evidence beyond the ownerless-successor/inode comment is that the token-present branch has the same check-to-delete race; releasing needs an atomic claim/rename rather than deleting the pathname after a separate ownership read.

P2 Badge Recognize extended-length UNC share roots

When ALTIMATE_DRIVER_DIR is an extended-length UNC root such as \\?\UNC\server\share\, this root check rejects the trimmed path and installLockPath returns \\?\UNC\server\share.lock, which names a different network share rather than a directory inside share. Fresh evidence beyond the earlier legacy-UNC report is that the new regex handles \\server\share but not its extended-length equivalent; lock creation normally fails because that other share does not exist, so every contender proceeds with acquired === false and installs concurrently.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add a readiness barrier before starting the lock.

The three Bun.spawn calls start independently. A slow child can enter after an earlier holder exits, so this test can pass without exercising the second handover and deadline renewal described in Lines 136-170. Make each child announce readiness, release all children together, and then call withInstallLock. Reuse the readiness-barrier pattern from the earlier multi-process test in this file.

SUGGESTION: searchRootsFromError's JSDoc is now detached from its function

Inserting quotedAbsolutePaths here split the searchRootsFromError doc comment (lines 286-301) from its declaration (line 320). The comment describing "Returns roots only when they exist on disk" / "Workspace-controlled roots are never returned" now sits above quotedAbsolutePaths, while searchRootsFromError no longer has its doc comment directly above it. Move the JSDoc down to line 320 (or move this function above it) so each comment stays adjacent to the function it documents.
