Multi-agent review (9 reviewers) found the devcontainer files carried comments + README from the abandoned read-only-symlink design, plus real behavioral gaps. Resolved all actionable findings (no deferrals). Documentation drift (the headline — stale comments described a security model opposite to what shipped): - README "Trust boundary" claimed a malicious dep "cannot write back … the read-only /host mount blocks the write." FALSE — the shareable dirs are RW-bound. Rewrote to document the bidirectional write-through, what stays one-way (credentials never flow back), and how to close it. - devcontainer.json mount group-1 comment described "selectively symlinks … read-only eliminates write-through" — replaced with the RW-bind reality. - Header "Windows-native is unsupported" -> supported (auto HOME setup). - containerEnv comment "credentials persist in host-bind-mounted dirs" -> they live in the named volumes. - hooks.json exclusion documented honestly as a partial mitigation, not a clean boundary (commands/agents/skills/rules are equally executing). - ~/.local "named volume" -> image directory. Behavioral fixes: - chown -R recursed into the RW host binds (could rewrite host ownership / EPERM-abort provisioning on non-UID-aligned Linux). Switched to `find -xdev` per dir so chown stays on the volume filesystem. - Cursor installer wrapped in `timeout 300` — its inner binary download isn't covered by curl --max-time and could hang docker build forever. - Removed dead CURSOR_VERSION ARG/ENV/build-arg (never consumed; "latest" implied a pin the installer can't honor). Documented why Cursor is unpinned. Extraction + tests (the two inline post-create.sh node heredocs were unlintable and untestable; the path regex had had bugs): - seed-claude-config.cjs — installMethod-strip seed, now with a non-object guard (a bare-value/array host .claude.json could otherwise slip the try/catch and silently re-trigger onboarding) and labeled write errors. - translate-plugin-registries.cjs — plugin-registry path translation with labeled errors. - translate-plugin-registries.test.cjs — 12 tests (Windows/POSIX paths, cross-CLI isolation, nested objects, non-object/empty-config guard). - post-create.sh calls the modules via $SCRIPT_DIR. CI: - .github/workflows/ci-devcontainer.yml — runs the unit tests + shell syntax checks + a `@devcontainers/cli build` smoke on .devcontainer/** changes. Conforms to the repo concurrency convention (validator passes). Documented (real gaps, fixes are honest docs since no correct auto-fix exists): user-scope MCP servers with absolute host command paths don't resolve in-container; user-scope config is copy-on-create so host edits need a rebuild; in-container plugin installs get shadowed by an empty host bind on rebuild (recovery noted); plugin installs are single-writer across checkouts; gh/docker RW-vs-ssh/aws/azure-RO rationale. Verified: fresh `@devcontainers/cli up` succeeds; installMethod stripped, registry translated to Linux paths, credentials node:node, 12/12 tests pass.

// Mount topology, by group:
|
|
//
|
|
// 1. AI CLI host config — TWO roles. (a) A read-only stage at /host/.<cli>
|
|
// that `post-create.sh` COPIES credentials + identity + single config
|
|
// files from on container-create (read-only so the credential snapshot
|
|
// can't be written back to host). (b) Direct READ-WRITE bind mounts of
|
|
// the shareable subdirs (Claude plugins/skills/agents/memory/commands;
|
|
// Codex plugins/prompts/memories/skills; Cursor plugins/rules/commands/
|
|
// agents/skills) overlaid onto the named volume at their sub-paths.
|
|
// Those RW binds are BIDIRECTIONAL: installing a plugin in the container
|
|
// writes straight to the host, and vice versa. This is a deliberate
|
|
// write-through trade-off — a compromised npm dep CAN drop files into
|
|
// your host plugin/agent/skill dirs that the next host session loads.
|
|
// See README § "Trust boundary, concretely". Credentials never join
|
|
// this surface — they stay in the volume (role 2).
|
|
//
|
|
// 2. AI CLI container config — per-devcontainer named volumes. CODEX_HOME
|
|
// points here; CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR is intentionally unset so it resolves
|
|
// to the default ~/.claude (same path). Credentials + identity +
|
|
// single config files (.credentials.json, ~/.claude/.claude.json,
|
|
// settings.json, config.toml, cli-config.json, mcp.json) live here with
|
|
// proper Linux perms and are NOT bind-mounted (single-file binds trip
|
|
// EXDEV on Docker Desktop Windows). Container-managed state (sessions,
|
|
// history, caches, IDE locks) stays isolated per devcontainer, so two
|
|
// GitNexus checkouts on the same host don't corrupt each other.
|
|
//
|
|
// 3. Other host config — read-write or read-only bind mounts for things
|
|
// that don't have the perm-flattening / onboarding-state complexity
|
|
// Claude Code does. `~/.gitconfig` is handled separately by VS Code's
|
|
// auto-copy mechanism (not mounted).
|
|
//
|
|
// 4. Per-instance state — `${devcontainerId}`-scoped: shell history,
|
|
// npm cache. Survive rebuilds, isolated between sibling instances.
|
|
//
|
|
// 5. Per-workspace-name AND per-instance state — workspace `node_modules`
|
|
// volumes use both `${localWorkspaceFolderBasename}` (debuggable in
|
|
// `docker volume ls`) and `${devcontainerId}` (collision-free between
|
|
// sibling instances of the same repo). Keeps tree-sitter native
|
|
// binaries and onnxruntime off the workspace bind mount (Win/Mac perf).
