Colin McDonnell cb0dbcd371 feat(action): make prepush hook non-blocking after one failure (#777)
* feat(action): make prepush hook non-blocking after one failure

push_branch now treats the repository's prepush hook as best-effort: it
runs at most once per run, surfaces the failure output if the script
exits non-zero, and every subsequent push_branch call this run skips
the hook so the agent isn't blocked by failures unrelated to its
change. The agent can iterate by running the hook command itself via
the shell tool when shell access is available; push_branch will not
re-run the hook automatically after a failure.

Why: a one-line OSS-allowlist change took 9 minutes (#776) because the
agent retried push_branch six times against a prepush hook that was
failing for env-leak and missing-build-artifact reasons unrelated to
the change. CI catches the same checks on the GitHub side; the local
prepush gate was duplicating work and blocking unrelated fixes.

- ToolState: new prepushFailureCount counter (per-run, never resets)
- executeLifecycleHook: returns structured failure (kind/output/exitCode)
  so prepush can compose its own agent-facing message instead of
  inheriting the generic retry/no-retry advice meant for setup
- push_branch: composes a shell-mode-aware error message; surfaces
  prepushSkipped on the success payload + appends a note to the message
- instructions.ts + wiki/prompt.md + docs/comparisons.mdx: updated to
  reflect best-effort semantics

* fix(action): clarify prepush latch semantics + soften static guidance

review fixes from PR #777:

- toolState comment, instructions, success message, tool description:
  replace "runs at most once per run" / "first call only" wording with
  the actual semantic — successful prepush keeps running on later
  push_branch calls; only a hook FAILURE latches the bypass.
- tool description: drop hardcoded "via the shell tool" guidance so
  the static description doesn't mislead in shell:disabled runs (the
  dynamic agent prompt in instructions.ts already does shell-conditional
  messaging).
- LifecycleHookFailure.output JSDoc: match the implementation
  (stderr-preferred fallback to stdout, empty for timeout/spawn).

* fix(action): shorten prepush-skip log to terse operator telemetry

the previous log line tried to address the agent ("re-run the hook
command yourself via shell"), but log.info writes to the action
runtime's stdout — the agent never sees it. agent-facing skip
guidance already lives in the error message from
buildPrepushFailureMessage, the success message when bypassed, and
the system prompt in instructions.ts. log line is now just operator
telemetry.

* refactor(action): drop slop from prepush soft-fail

self-audit pass after the previous review-fix round. removed
duplication between code-level comment and the five other places that
already explain the same behavior, tightened verbose JSDoc, and
collapsed redundant clauses in agent-facing strings.

- LifecycleHookFailure → discriminated union. drops the optional
  exitCode/spawnError fields (and the empty-output sentinel for
  timeout/spawn) plus the corresponding ?? fallbacks in the helper.
- PushBranchTool: 7-line code comment above the latch removed
  (toolState field comment + tool description + error message +
  success message + system prompt all already cover it). tool
  description third sentence dropped (restated the second). success
  message tightened to a parenthetical.
- buildPrepushFailureMessage: 4-line JSDoc → 1 line. shared "if you
  think the failure could indicate a real bug in your code" prefix
  factored out across the shell-conditional branches.
- ToolState.prepushFailureCount comment: 8 lines → 3. the "what" is
  in git.ts; comment now only documents the invariant (never
  decremented within a run).
- instructions.ts prepush guidance: collapsed nested bullets + ternary
  into one paragraph; dropped the "so re-running via shell is the only
  way…" tail that restated "push_branch will NOT re-run it".

* fix(action): hint prepush bypass on dirty tree after hook failure

When push_branch blocks on a dirty working tree and the prepush latch
is already set, tell the agent the hook will be skipped once the tree is clean.

* fix(test): narrow CI matrix for lifecycle and toolState changes

Remove lifecycle.ts from ALWAYS_RUN_ALL and add lifecycle.ts + toolState.ts
to push/git agnostic test coverage so PRs touching prepush latch logic run
targeted tests instead of the full matrix.

## Test 1: Token Isolation
Run these commands via the shell tool and report the output:
1. \`echo "GITHUB_TOKEN=$GITHUB_TOKEN"\` - should be empty
2. \`git remote get-url origin\` - should NOT contain a token (no x-access-token)
3. \`git config credential.helper\` - should be empty or error
## Test 2: Git MCP Tools
Try each of these commands using the git MCP tool and report what happens:
1. \`git status\` - should work
2. \`git log --oneline -3\` - should work
3. \`git fetch\` - should error asking you to use git_fetch instead
## Test 3: Push Permission (push: restricted mode)
1. Create a test file: \`echo "test" > /tmp/git-test.txt\`
2. Try to use push_branch to push to 'main' - should be BLOCKED
3. Report the exact error message
