The process environment is no longer a configuration source. `{{ vars.NAME }}`
(non-sensitive, server-stored) and `{{ secrets.NAME }}` (vault-backed) cover
both cases, and reading the worker's ambient environment made a run's inputs
depend on how its process happened to be launched.
`Namespace::Env` is kept but wired to nothing, so `{{ env.NAME }}` still
parses and fails with a message naming its replacement rather than reaching
a consumer as literal text. `ResolveCtx::with_env` is gone, so no call site
can opt back in.
Two long-standing warts were env-only and go with it:
- `InterpString::resolve_or_source`, the "fall back to the raw template
source on failure" path, which let an unresolved token reach a sandbox or
the GitHub API as literal `{{ ... }}` text. Its own comment noted it was
slated for hard-error semantics.
- `RunEnvironmentSettings::resolve_env`'s matching source fallback for
env-only values.
Both carried `#[expect(clippy::disallowed_methods)]` escape hatches. Every
run-boundary resolver — sandbox env, prepare steps, MCP transports, GitHub
permissions, Slack channels, run goal files, provider extra_headers — now
fails closed instead.
Hooks lose their `allowed_env_vars` allowlist, `resolve_header`, and
`HeaderResolveError` along with the `E: Env` generic threaded through the
executor. They keep `{{ vars.* }}`, which `RunSettings::substitute_variables`
already substitutes server-side at run creation.
`allowed_env_vars` is removed from the OpenAPI spec and the generated
TypeScript client. The docs example showing `{{ env.* }}` in
`[server.slatedb.s3].bucket` was already wrong — that field is a plain
String and never interpolated — and is now a literal.

Command node `script` attributes were literal text: a `{{ inputs.x }}`
reached bash verbatim, and the only signal was a `detemplated_attribute`
warning. Scripts now substitute `{{ goal }}`, `{{ inputs.NAME }}`, and
`{{ vars.NAME }}` at run creation, alongside goals and prompts.
Scripts use `InterpString` token substitution rather than the MiniJinja
pass that renders prompts. Shell source is full of brace syntax that must
survive untouched — jq filters, awk programs, Go templates, brace
expansion — and `InterpString` claims only the narrow token forms,
leaving everything else literal.
`env` and `secrets` are deliberately not wired and now fail loudly
instead of passing through as text. A script reads the environment with
`$NAME`, which needs no interpolation, and a resolved secret would be
baked into the `CommandStarted` event that records the script verbatim.
The error points at `[environments.<slug>.env]` for the secret case.
`ResolveCtx` gains opt-in `with_inputs` and `with_goal`. Namespace
availability stays scope-determined per call site, so every existing
config-layer context leaves both unwired and keeps its current behavior.
`goal` names a single value rather than a namespace of them, so it has
no dotted form: only the exact body `goal` produces a token and
`{{ goal.title }}` stays literal.
Values substitute verbatim without shell quoting, matching
`[[run.prepare.steps]].script` where the snippet is the author's to
quote. Substituted text is never rescanned.

## Summary
`fabro validate` had inconsistent behavior for undefined template
variables depending on whether the prompt was inline or loaded via an
`@file` reference. Inline `{{ inputs.foo }}` produced a warning and
validation passed; the same expression inside a `@file`-imported prompt
produced a hard validation error.
Fixes#286.
## Root cause
Two template-rendering passes with different strictness, applied to
disjoint inputs:
1. **DOT-source pass**
(`lib/crates/fabro-workflow/src/operations/create.rs`) honored
`RenderMode::Structural` for `fabro validate` — undefined variables
downgraded to a `Severity::Warning` diagnostic, then lenient render
finished the job.
2. **Per-attribute pass**
(`lib/crates/fabro-workflow/src/transforms/variable_expansion.rs`)
inside `TemplateTransform` was always strict and had no `RenderMode`
awareness. Because `FileInliningTransform` runs *before*
`TemplateTransform`, expressions inside `@file` content only ever
encountered the strict pass.
## Fix
- Plumb `RenderMode` through `TransformOptions` into
`TemplateTransform`.
- In `RenderMode::Structural`, the transform catches
`TemplateError::UndefinedVariable` per attribute, emits a warning
diagnostic, and falls back to `render_lenient`.
- Diagnostics flow through a new `Transformed.diagnostics` field into
`Validated` alongside lint output.
- Diagnostics now include `node_id` when the undefined variable was
found inside a node attribute, which is more useful than the previous
"at line 1" location.
- `RenderMode` and the shared `template_undefined_variable_diagnostic`
helper moved to `pipeline/types.rs` so the transform layer can reach
them without a circular dep.
Strict mode (`fabro run`, preflight) is unchanged — undefined inputs
still hard-fail before a run is created.
## Behavior
Illustrative output shapes (variable names and line numbers depend on
the fixture):
Inline prompt (unchanged):
```
warning: undefined template variable `inputs.<name>` at line <n> (template_undefined_variable)
Validation: OK
```
`@file`-imported prompt (previously a hard error, now matches inline —
node-attributed instead of line-attributed):
```
warning [node: <id>]: undefined template variable `inputs.<name>` in node `<id>` (template_undefined_variable)
Validation: OK
```
## Test plan
- [x] `cargo nextest run --workspace` — 5773/5773 passing
- [x] `cargo +nightly-2026-04-14 clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D
warnings` clean
- [x] `cargo +nightly-2026-04-14 fmt --check --all` clean
- [x] New regression test
`bare_fabro_with_unbound_inputs_in_imported_prompt_validates_structurally_with_warning`
in `lib/crates/fabro-cli/tests/it/cmd/validate.rs` against new fixture
`test/templated_unbound_imported/`
- [x] Existing
`bare_fabro_with_unbound_inputs_validates_structurally_with_warning` and
`strict_render_hard_fails_on_unbound_inputs` still pass — verifies
inline structural and run-start strict behavior are both preserved
- [x] Manual reproduction of the exact inputs from the issue now
succeeds with a warning

Invert the docs convention so the Mintlify-published site lives under
docs/public/ and internal artifacts (strategy docs, brainstorms, plans,
etc.) sit at docs/ root or docs/internal/. Tools that default to writing
into docs/ now land in the catch-all instead of leaking into the
published tree.
- Move Mintlify content (administration/, agents/, api-reference/,
changelog/, core-concepts/, examples/, execution/, getting-started/,
human-tools/, integrations/, languages/, reference/, tutorials/,
workflows/, images/, logo/, docs.json, favicon.svg, dot-highlight.js)
into docs/public/.
- Collapse docs-internal/ into docs/internal/.
- Update Rust path references (fabro-api/build.rs, fabro-server,
fabro-dev), TypeScript generator arg, CI path filters, clippy.toml
reasons, AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md, and README.md image refs.
Mintlify dashboard project root must be updated to docs/public/ in a
follow-up. .mintignore move/trim and .claude/skills/ updates land in a
separate commit.
