fix: close three credential leaks with one conservative redaction rule - #1701
Telemetry attempted_args and Sentry strings kept URL userinfo whenever the host had no dot (localhost, registry:8080), because both relied on an email heuristic.
The same token rule runs before every other sanitizer.
The bundle pushed the base package to 20,018,916 B against the 20,000,000 B ceiling.
docs/CHATGPT_CODEX_PLUGIN_IMPLEMENTATION.md, a dated research plan, is now repository-only (as with pm-1ke3mz). The base package is 19,981,167 B; the simulated Sentry-injected profile is 20,261,123 / 20,300,288 B.
Design
One provably complete token rule (src/core/shared/url-credentials.ts). Every URL a parser accepts has a : after its scheme, and userinfo always ends at an @. So the span between a token's first : and its last @ is replaced with [redacted]; scheme slashes are kept. PR #1688 showed that enumerating parser-normalized spellings is open-ended (backslash authorities, tabs in the scheme, git+/npm: wrappers, inline --flag= values). This rule covers all of them by construction. The deliberate cost is that a scoped package name after a colon is hidden too.
The flat regexes are now composed from KEY + VALUE constants. Every rule's source and flags were verified byte-identical to main.
The structured pass judges a quoted key's scalar value, every quoted string in value position inside an array or object under the key, and XML element content. It uses the rule's own sticky value grammar, so the 8-character minimum, the placeholder exclusions (<…, ${…}, $(…)) and the entropy predicate carry over.
Bare tokens inside containers are never judged, so password=[scrubbed] stays clean.
A literal with escapes is judged in its decoded length.
Prefixed keys (reset-password, "New password") count only with whitespace-free values, so localization labels stay clean.
Nested quoted keys inside containers get their own scalar check.
A structured string literal that spans a raw line break is treated as a host-language artifact. This removed the one false positive found in the repository-wide scan.
The pass is linear. Each container is walked once and never rescanned for nested keys.
The key cursor is cloned per scan, so interleaved generators cannot share lastIndex.
Refusal redaction (src/cli/runtime/refusal-credential-redaction.ts). This was reworked after two Codex rounds:
Builders receive redacted argv.handleRunPmCliError, resolveCommanderUsageContext and the bootstrap JSON-help envelope derive guidance from redactRefusalArgv(argv). Lower-casing, truncation, re-quoting or wrapping is therefore safe by construction. The telemetry command taxonomy of an unknown command is derived from the redacted token too.
One choke point. Every JSON and text refusal is rendered from a guidance object (projectJsonErrorGuidance / renderBoundedGuidanceText). That object is redacted before its envelope, diagnostic budget and output accounting exist, so receipts measure the delivered bytes.
Invocation-scoped registry. A userinfo that contains whitespace splits into several words, which the word rule cannot reassemble. runPmCli therefore registers such spans, with their shell and JSON escaping, in an AsyncLocalStorage scope, and the shared text rule removes them case-insensitively for CLI, telemetry and Sentry alike. Above 32 spellings it falls back to the whole-string rule.
Retries. When the invocation carried credentials, suggested_retry and suggested_retry_args are withheld from the guidance, and a restore step is added for both JSON and text.
Why one PR: you asked for similar pm items to be bundled. All four items share the redaction primitive, and the package-weight tranche (pm-7ouxrr) is what lets the bundle fit under the 20 MB artifact ceiling.
The redaction primitive is also a public SDK export (redactUrlCredentialsInToken, redactUrlCredentialsInText, URL_CREDENTIAL_PLACEHOLDER; additive surface change), so packages that echo caller input can apply the same rule. CLI code reaches it through the SDK, which the import-boundary gate requires.
Also filed: pm-pwqiao. A files/docs --add refusal does not name the note segment that it misread as a key.
Review rounds
Codex ran 9 rounds. Every finding was reproduced and fixed. The redaction design went through two rewrites:
Spelling registration was replaced by redacting builder input plus one guidance choke point.
That was backed by a fragment rule with a bounded leak (at most 5 consecutive secret characters).
The traversal became path-aware: schema, typed and producer positions.
The final P0/P1 gate on af0851e2a was clean. Greptile rates it 5/5. CodeRabbit's full reviews are all addressed; its last trigger was rate-limited. All review threads are resolved.
Follow-ups filed:
pm-ycgb5g: a literal concatenated with an env reference in the flat grammar, from pm-memory#51.
Package headroom after this PR is 949 B, so the next packaged-bytes PR needs a pm-998juj tranche.
Verification
Built CLI:
Zero secret bytes on stdout/stderr for unknown_option and read_output_mutation_conflict (JSON and text), a space inside the password, a backslash authority and an inline --install= value.
The queued telemetry events (isolated global root, unreachable endpoint, Sentry disabled) carry zero secret bytes.
node scripts/check-secrets.mjs is clean over every tracked file. The structured pass adds about 190 ms to a 196 MB full-rule scan.
tests/integration/cli/credential-redaction.integration.spec.ts, which runs a real create and checks parity with scanMutationSecrets, and asserts both refusal paths print zero secret bytes
Telemetry and Sentry cases
Local static chain passes (lint, docstrings, contracts, import boundary, SDK surface, graph composition at the 1233 ceiling, record integrity, defect evidence, and mutation 345 killed / 7 equivalent), with three exceptions:
The dependency-advisory gate could not reach npm or OSV from this host.
The SDK entrypoint and CLI transport benches went over budget under load average 5–13. An interleaved A/B against a main build showed no difference: authoring 155–185 ms on main vs 142–169 ms here; list 331–404 ms vs 324–440 ms.
Full local suite: 12,445 tests pass. The two failures caused by this change are fixed: the 120-file cap, after moving the spec into tests/integration/cli/, and the timing-control counts. Of the five timeout failures seen under concurrent load, four pass in isolation. The fifth is composed-continuation, which cannot resolve npm next to Homebrew's Node binary on this host; it is environment-only, and CI has a standard layout.
Credential-shaped content got past pm's guards in three places. They now
share one rule.
GH-1699 (pm-gh1699): the mutation secret guard and the repository scan
flagged `password: x` but missed `{"password":"x"}`, `'password':'x'`,
nested arrays and objects, and `<password>x</password>`. The assignment
rules now declare a SecretStructuredSpelling. The flat regexes are composed
from KEY + VALUE constants and are byte-identical to the previous sources.
A linear structured pass judges two things with the rule's own sticky
value grammar: a quoted key's scalar value, and every quoted string in
value position inside a container. The placeholder exclusions and the
entropy predicate therefore carry over. A structured value may not span a
raw line break, which removed the one repository false positive. Bare
container tokens such as [scrubbed] are never judged. Each container is
walked once and the key cursor is cloned per scan.
pm-nhauur: CLI refusals echoed a credentialed package source verbatim in
attempted_command, normalized_args, suggested_retry, next_steps and
examples. Redaction now runs once, at emission. Typed refusals are
redacted before formatting, output accounting, telemetry and Sentry.
Commander usage errors are redacted before lean projection, accounting and
the help_format override. Exact raw and shell-quoted spellings of each
credential-bearing token or inline value are replaced, so a userinfo that
contains spaces is covered too. A retry whose text changed is withheld,
and a next step tells the caller to restore the credentials.
pm-5htunt: telemetry attempted_args and Sentry strings kept URL userinfo
whenever the host had no dot, because both relied on an email heuristic.
The same rule now runs before every other sanitizer.
The rule (core/shared/url-credentials.ts, exported from the SDK as
redactUrlCredentialsInToken / redactUrlCredentialsInText /
URL_CREDENTIAL_PLACEHOLDER) replaces the span between a token's first ':'
and its last '@'. Any parseable URL has a scheme colon, and userinfo always
ends at an '@'. The rule is therefore complete for every parser-normalized
spelling that PR #1688 kept rediscovering. The deliberate cost is that a
scoped package name after a colon is hidden too.
pm-7ouxrr (pm-998juj tranche): the bundle pushed the base package to
20,018,916 B against the 20,000,000 B ceiling. The dated Codex plugin
research plan is now repository-only, like the ecosystem planning review
before it. The base package is 19,981,167 B and the simulated
Sentry-injected profile is 20,261,123 / 20,300,288 B.
Filed pm-pwqiao: a files/docs --add refusal does not name the note
segment it misread as a key.

URL credentials are redacted from telemetry, Sentry reports, and CLI errors and refusal messages, including free text and unusual URL formats.
Recovery suggestions that could expose credentials are withheld, with guidance to restore credentials when needed.
Secret scanning detects credential-like values in quoted keys, nested structured data, and password-related XML content.
Malformed revision arguments no longer expose URL credentials in error messages.
New Features
The SDK provides helpers for redacting URL credentials from text and tokens.
Other
A Codex plugin research plan is excluded from the npm package; packaged documentation links to its repository page.
This PR adds structured secret matching and URL-credential redaction across CLI refusal paths, telemetry, Sentry, and SDK error handling. It also exports redaction helpers from the SDK, updates documentation and tests, excludes one repository-only document from npm, and records related issue and task history.
Password and high-entropy rules now use shared structured spellings. They inspect quoted keys, nested container strings, and password XML element content.
Scanner coverage and documentation tests/unit/sdk/security/secret-policy-parity.spec.ts, docs/MUTATION_INTEGRITY.md
Tests cover the structured cases, exclusions, escape handling, iterator behavior, and scan time. The documentation records the same forms and limits.
The shared helpers redact URL userinfo, track invocation credentials, and export the placeholder and redaction APIs through the SDK surface.
Telemetry and Sentry redaction src/core/telemetry/runtime.ts, src/core/sentry/instrument.ts, tests/unit/core/shared/url-credentials.spec.ts, tests/unit/core/telemetry/telemetry-runtime.spec.ts, tests/unit/core/sentry/sentry-helpers.spec.ts
Telemetry and Sentry redact URL credentials before their existing sanitizers run. The tests cover dotless hosts, ports, whitespace-bearing userinfo, and invocation-scoped credentials.
CLI error and refusal paths redact credential-bearing values. Credential-bearing invocations receive restore guidance, and suggested retries are withheld when applicable.
The package excludes the plan. Documentation links to its canonical URL. Release notes and package-size records document the exclusion and related task status.

Merge Risk: Low · up to e8c3a
The credential redaction changes work as described. A few edge cases remain. Some echoed credential fragments may stay visible when many credentials are registered. Some refusals may lose their retry suggestions. Some schema-like text may be refused when secret_guard is set to block. These are worth addressing but do not block merge.

Their base and head results were measured on machines with a different CPU, core count or memory, so the changes might not come from the code. Run base and head on the same runner type.
Codex review round 1 reproduced seven gaps in the emission-time pass. Five
came from enumerating output spellings, and fixing them one at a time would
repeat the PR #1688 treadmill. The design now has three parts.
- Refusal builders receive redacted argv. handleRunPmCliError,
resolveCommanderUsageContext and the bootstrap JSON-help unknown-command
envelope all derive guidance from redactRefusalArgv(argv). Lower-casing,
truncation, re-quoting or wrapping of that argv is then safe by
construction. This fixes the case-normalized refusal.surface echo and the
missed bootstrap help path. The telemetry command taxonomy of an unknown
command, which split the token at whitespace, is fixed the same way.
- A bounded registry handles what the word rule cannot reassemble.
runPmCli registers the invocation's whitespace-bearing userinfo spans
together with both shells' escaping, and resets them in a finally block.
redactUrlCredentialsInText, which the CLI, telemetry and Sentry all
share, removes those spans case-insensitively with a replacer callback,
so a retained $& stays literal. Past 32 spellings it falls back to the
whole-string rule, which over-redacts but cannot miss a span.
- Retries are withheld on the formatted envelope. Formatters such as the
lock-conflict guidance regenerate suggested_retry from the recovery
arguments. So whenever the invocation carried credentials, withholding
now runs on the JSON envelope before lean projection and output
accounting.
The emission pass no longer substitutes a spelling map. Token fields get
the token rule and text gets one bounded regex, which removes the quadratic
cost Codex measured (16k args took 10 s).
Secret rules: the key cursor keeps scanning inside walked containers, so a
nested quoted key with a bare value (YAML password: {x: 'short',
'password': value}) gets its scalar check. Each container is still walked
once.
Filed pm-gh1700 for GH-1700 (pm test --add echoes the full linked-test
list).
…haracters
Greptile found that {"password":"ab\"cdefghijk"} passed the guard. The
quote-blind value grammar stopped at the escaped quote and counted only
three characters. A literal that contains escapes is now judged once more
with each escape sequence counted as one ordinary character. This covers
quoted keys, container values and unquoted keys. For an unquoted key only
the escaped judgment runs, so a direct match still produces the flat
rule's single finding.

Review comments at @docs/MUTATION_INTEGRITY.md:
- Around line 111-112: Update the linearity statement about

walks.
Review comments at @docs/SDK.md:
- Around line 3292-3293: Clarify the free-text redaction limit in the

whitespace-delimited words and may miss credentials containing whitespace, and
instruct readers to redact whole URL tokens before interpolating them into free
text. Preserve the surrounding explanation of token-rule completeness and retry
behavior.
Review comments at @src/cli/main.ts:
- Around line 2352-2357: Update the credential registration used by runPmCli so
each invocation retains isolated state across nested and overlapping calls,
rather than replacing or clearing another invocation’s registration. Use
invocation-local storage and ensure URL credential redaction remains active when
an extension handler echoes a whitespace-bearing URL and throws; add coverage
for nested and concurrent calls.
Review comments at @src/core/shared/secret-rules.ts:
- Around line 319-323: Reduce cognitive complexity in
findStructuredSpellingMatches by extracting the element scan into a separate
generator and delegating its matches. Preserve the existing missing-element
guard, regex state reset, and value filtering behavior in the extracted helper.
Review comments at @src/core/shared/url-credentials.ts:
- Around line 62-65: Update registerUrlCredentialInvocation so its
credential-carried signal only triggers retry withholding and the restore note
for actual URL credentials, not arbitrary colon-and-at-sign text in option
values; retain redaction behavior where needed. Check how redactPayload in
refusal-credential-redaction.ts consumes this signal and preserve the existing
credential-protection safeguards while separating the retry and restore-note
decision from broad redaction detection.

Supplemental isolated review at immutable head 597b06b5a74d4a4397bcb0d3f36af68d6d4cb8bd, corroborating existing discussions r4527030439, r4527030457 and r4527150392 (not a new issue):
Using the exact shared URL helper with Node 24.22.1 (TypeScript types stripped; local import suffix adapted only), registering https://a b@localhost/x then redacting free text containing that URL retains a b.
Registering a longer synthetic whitespace-bearing userinfo, clearing the registration, then redacting its echoed URL retains the synthetic span. This demonstrates registry lifecycle dependence, not an independently reproduced nested/concurrent CLI exploit.
Consuming the full password-assignment generator over 'password='.repeat(n) gave three descriptive elapsed samples per input: n=2,000: 57.37/55.41/51.20 ms; n=4,000: 211.56/187.77/194.02 ms; n=8,000: 776.87/787.08/786.18 ms. This corroborates repeated rescanning at this head, not a whole-task benchmark or percentile claim.
Earlier 18 bounded primitive assertions for quoted/nested/XML positives, placeholder controls and ordinary URL redaction all passed, but do not cover these adversarial cases. No network/provider calls or real credentials were used. Acceptance remains the existing review requests: short whitespace-bearing spans must redact in context; nested/overlapping invocation registrations must remain isolated; repeated-key scans must avoid suffix rescanning while preserving findings and must-allow controls. Full CLI/telemetry integration and hosted coverage/static gates remain separate verification.
Codex review round 2 reproduced six gaps. Three are fixed by moving
redaction to one choke point.
- Every JSON and text refusal is rendered from a guidance object by
projectJsonErrorGuidance or renderBoundedGuidanceText. That object is now
redacted before its envelope, diagnostic budget and output accounting
exist. A long credentialed refusal used to carry a stale receipt at 2,001
of 2,000 tokens; it is now truncated, with a receipt that measures what
is delivered. The post-format wrappers in main.ts, commander-usage.ts
and help-json-payload.ts are removed, and text output carries the
restore step natively.
- The whitespace-span registry now lives in an AsyncLocalStorage scope
(runWithUrlCredentialInvocation), the same pattern expected-revisions.ts
uses. Overlapping in-process invocations no longer clear each other's
registration.
- The registry also stores each span's JSON-escaped spelling, which
covers invalidExpectHash's JSON.stringify echo. It no longer skips short
spans such as 'x y'.
Secret rules:
- A literal that contains escapes is judged only in its decoded length;
"\n\n\n\n" and ab are no longer flagged.
- Keys are classified as exact, prefixed or malformed. A prefixed key
(reset-password, "New password", smtp.password) counts only with a
whitespace-free value, so localization labels stay clean while compact
credentials and exact-key passphrases are still caught.
- The value judgment and the element pass are split out to keep the
structured pass within the complexity budget.

Follow-up to #issuecomment-6773003526 at immutable head 64ad09b5f276fac417d1a5ca2c03d90e43044529:
Independent isolated Node24.22.1 primitive checks now pass for short whitespace-bearing userinfo, nested invocation restoration and two overlapping async invocation scopes. This supports the AsyncLocalStorage fix at the primitive level, not a full CLI certification.
Two existing new findings are corroborated by an exact-source old/new comparison against 597b06b5: both produced one finding before and zero now:
r4527715637: {"reset-password":{"password":["correct horse battery staple"]}} with the password-assignment rule.
r4527715651: quoted token containing the synthetic prefix AbCdEfGhIjKlMnOpQrStUvWxYz0123456789 followed by 200 literal Unicode escapes cycling \\u0041 through \\u005a. The decoded suffix is varied; replacing escapes with repeated x changes the entropy verdict.
The earlier repeated-key concern also remains at this head: fully consuming 'password='.repeat(n) measured 44.63–51.89ms at n=2000, 187.36–200.31ms at4000, 765.39–885.78ms at8000 (three local samples each). Descriptive primitive measurements only, not whole-workflow costs.
Acceptance: preserve exact nested-key inspection under prefixed containers, retain entropy of supported decoded escape values, and avoid repeated suffix scans while retaining must-allow cases. Sources were type-stripped with only local import-suffix adaptation; no real credentials, provider calls or full SDK/CLI run. Hosted coverage/static/runtime gates remain pending.
Codex review round 3 and the latest Greptile and CodeRabbit reviews found
more gaps.
A comma-splitting producer (parseExpectHashSpecs) echoed
'https://u:<secret>' fragments, and this leaks even a whitespace-free
secret. Instead of registering one more spelling, the CLI now registers
every secret of the invocation, with its shell and JSON escaping, as
six-character fragments. A secret is the password, or a bare token's whole
userinfo; usernames are excluded. The text rule removes every run that
shares a fragment, so a split, truncated, re-cased or partly escaped echo
exposes at most five consecutive secret characters. Four-character
fragments garbled ordinary guidance words for dictionary-like passwords.
The restore step is never redacted again, so it can no longer be garbled
or duplicated.
Other fixes:
- formatPmCliErrorForDisplay redacts its guidance before the concise
tracker-initialization branch renders a retry.
- Escaped literals are decoded faithfully (\uXXXX, \xHH, simple escapes)
instead of being x-filled, so whitespace, placeholder and entropy
predicates judge the decoded value. Literal termination comes from the
escape-aware scanner.
- An exact nested key's passphrase under a prefixed outer key is judged
again. Exact and compact walks keep separate markers, and each character
is walked at most twice.
- Unquoted keys check for an escaped literal before the direct grammar, so
"password=".repeat(n) is linear again (Greptile).
- Docs: corrected the linearity statement and the SDK free-text limit, and

Redact reporting failures before writing them to stderr.
An extension error can reach sentryCaptureCliError with a context accessor that throws an error containing a credential-bearing argument. In non-JSON mode, this catch can write that credential to stderr.
Proposed fix
- printError(`Failed to report error: ${describeUnknownError(reportingError)}`);+ printError(`Failed to report error: ${redactUrlCredentialsInText(describeUnknownError(reportingError))}`);

- Around line 3289-3290: Update the documentation around
redactUrlCredentialsInToken and redactUrlCredentialsInText to warn that
credentials extracted from raw tokens may remain unchanged when passed through
text redaction; direct users to build diagnostics from redacted tokens or omit
extracted credentials.
Review comments at @src/core/shared/url-credentials.ts:
- Around line 110-118: Update the fragment-registration loop in
describeInvocation so it stops registering spellings as soon as fragments
exceeds MAX_REGISTERED_FRAGMENTS, including midway through processing a token;
continue scanning tokens to compute carried. Preserve the existing overflow
handling and assess whether large prose spans should be limited to avoid
registering ordinary-word fragments.

Codex review round 4 and the latest Greptile and CodeRabbit reviews:
- Producer diagnostics keyed by a source URL kept it, because only values
were redacted. Keys now pass the text rule as well, and a key that
collides after redaction gets a numbered suffix.
- Fixed contract fields (code, original_code, type, recovery_mode,
option_scope, diagnostic_class) are never rewritten by a secret's
fragments. A password such as 'unknown_option' would otherwise blank the
refusal code that clients dispatch on.
- The fragment registry no longer fails open past its budget. A longer
secret is registered at aligned positions, with each fragment at least
as wide as the stride. Protection therefore degrades by a bounded number
of characters instead of being dropped, and the work and memory stay
capped. Spellings are deduplicated before counting.
- userinfoBounds skips at most the two authority delimiters, so a
non-special scheme's backslash userinfo is redacted rather than skipped.
- Escaped literals reject raw line breaks before decoding. YAML and Python
eight-digit \UXXXXXXXX escapes decode as one code point.
- SDK.md warns against echoing values extracted from raw tokens.
The fleet's env-reference concatenation case (password=${EMPTY}"literal")
lives in the pre-existing flat grammar and is filed as pm-ycgb5g.

Reconciliation of #issuecomment-6778526717 at 4b97c6a889d6a11e01ab74989914b01b20762976: rerunning the exact updated guidance helper now preserves recovery.fallback_candidates[0].source with the synthetic resource1 credential scope, supporting the fix for r4529885910. The restore instruction is now first. The shared URL helper is unchanged, so the isolated short split echo https://u:abc still survives registration of https://u:abc,rest@localhost/x (existing r4529885875). This remains a primitive check, not a full CLI reproduction. Latest hosted coverage shards 1–4 and static gates pass; aggregate coverage/Windows gates and smokes/Windows packed runtime are still pending. No full certification or new issue.
…e source
Hosted Gates (coverage) failed at 99.99% on 4b97c6a. The uncovered code
was all new branches: the length-preserving lower-case fallback
(U+0130), unterminated escaped literals, and the expect-hash placeholder
arm that only the built-CLI spec exercised. Each one now has a unit spec.
CodeRabbit:
- parseExpectHashSpecs no longer echoes a piece cut from a
credential-bearing argument, such as 'https://u:abc' cut before a comma.
Such pieces are shown only as the placeholder. The fragment rule's
five-character bound already covered this, but the producer no longer
relies on it.
- The Commander usage resolver reads bootstrap options, including the
tracker path, from the unredacted normalized argv, while guidance keeps
using redacted tokens. C:\Users\a@b\pm therefore keeps its custom-type
guidance. main.ts passes the raw invocation to the resolver and the
formatters, which redact it themselves.

A pm-nhauur comment quoted a review finding's example tracker path, a
Windows user profile. The repository secret scan correctly flags that
shape as an absolute home path, and Gates (static) failed on it. The
literal is replaced through an audited pm history redact: history hashes
were re-verified and an audit entry was appended. Graph composition,
record integrity, tracker quality and history drift all pass.

Codex review round 7:
- With a credential-bearing --pm-path, unknown-command recovery appended
extension-activation failures after the guidance was redacted, and those
failures name the tracker's storage root.
appendCommanderExtensionFailures now passes each failure's name, error
and recovery commands through the text rule before appending, and the
output accounting is recomputed afterwards.
- For a single-quoted literal under a prefixed key, the decoded reading
was chosen first and failed the compact check. The literal YAML reading
was then never tried. Each reading is now judged on its own, and either
one qualifying is enough.
#1699 Secret guard misses credentials under quoted keys (JSON, Python dict, XML) and nested JSON values · 3 of 3 met
#
Requirement
Status
Notes
1
Recognize credential values under quoted keys, nested arrays or objects, and password XML elements.
✅ Met
The structured spelling pass covers these forms; parity tests exercise them in the mutation scanner and repository scan.
2
Keep the must-allow cases clean, including empty values, placeholders, suffixed keys, and prose.
✅ Met
The allow corpus checks these cases against both the scanner and repository scan.
3
Keep the CLI mutation guard and scanMutationSecrets findings aligned for the must-refuse and must-allow corpora.
✅ Met
A CLI integration test compares real create-command guard findings with scanMutationSecrets; parity tests also compare both consumers across the corpora.

Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.
Describe the credential fixes as fixes.
These entries say the scrubbers “keep URL credentials” and refusal bundles “echo URL credentials verbatim.” A reader can reasonably take both statements as current security warnings. Update the corresponding tracker titles to describe the fixes, then regenerate CHANGELOG.md. As per coding guidelines, “CHANGELOG.md is generated … from closed tracker items …; do not edit it by hand.”

Review comments at @docs/MUTATION_INTEGRITY.md:
- Around line 109-118: Update the mutation-integrity documentation to define
“exact key” and “prefixed key” according to their matching behavior. Add the
prefixed-key value rules: values must be whitespace-free, and a quoted key
qualifies as prefixed only when its opening quote occurs within 64 characters on
the same line; clarify that exact keys may retain whitespace-bearing
passphrases.
Review comments at @src/core/shared/url-credentials.ts:
- Around line 118-126: Update the short-spelling branch in the credential
fragment loop so every spelling shorter than fragmentLength is added to
shortSpellings, including whitespace-free secrets; preserve the existing
handling of longer spellings.
- Around line 116-118: Update the stride calculation using positions so its
budget includes the tail fragments added during fragment registration, and
ensure the resulting fragments.size does not exceed MAX_REGISTERED_FRAGMENTS.
Preserve the existing fragment selection behavior while adjusting the stride or
rebuilding as needed to enforce the cap.

CodeRabbit review of e8c3a9b:
- Commander's message is classified as written. Fragment redaction could
rewrite words such as "option" and drop the unknown-option suggestions.
Every rendering of the message still passes the guidance choke point.
- Inside a container walk under an exact key, object member values are
judged compactly and array elements keep passphrases. A JSON Schema
"description" no longer counts as a password.
- The fragment stride counts each spelling's tail fragment, so the
registry cap holds exactly. Once the stride widens, a secret shorter
than the fragment width (but at least six characters) is registered
whole.
- rawInvocationArgv on the CLI error context is optional and falls back
to invocationArgv for hand-built callers.
- MUTATION_INTEGRITY.md defines exact and prefixed keys and their value
rules.

Summary
Three ways credential-shaped content got past pm's guards. All three are fixed here, and they share one conservative primitive.
password: xbut missed{"password":"x"},'password':'x', nested arrays/objects and<password>x</password>.SecretStructuredSpellingon the assignment rules covers these forms.unknown_option,read_output_mutation_conflict, …) echoed a credentialed package source verbatim inattempted_command,normalized_args,suggested_retry,next_stepsandexamples.attempted_argsand Sentry strings kept URL userinfo whenever the host had no dot (localhost,registry:8080), because both relied on an email heuristic.docs/CHATGPT_CODEX_PLUGIN_IMPLEMENTATION.md, a dated research plan, is now repository-only (as with pm-1ke3mz). The base package is 19,981,167 B; the simulated Sentry-injected profile is 20,261,123 / 20,300,288 B.Design
One provably complete token rule (
src/core/shared/url-credentials.ts). Every URL a parser accepts has a:after its scheme, and userinfo always ends at an@. So the span between a token's first:and its last@is replaced with[redacted]; scheme slashes are kept. PR #1688 showed that enumerating parser-normalized spellings is open-ended (backslash authorities, tabs in the scheme,git+/npm:wrappers, inline--flag=values). This rule covers all of them by construction. The deliberate cost is that a scoped package name after a colon is hidden too.Structured secret spellings (
src/core/shared/secret-rules.ts):main.<…,${…},$(…)) and the entropy predicate carry over.password=[scrubbed]stays clean.reset-password,"New password") count only with whitespace-free values, so localization labels stay clean.lastIndex.Refusal redaction (
src/cli/runtime/refusal-credential-redaction.ts). This was reworked after two Codex rounds:handleRunPmCliError,resolveCommanderUsageContextand the bootstrap JSON-help envelope derive guidance fromredactRefusalArgv(argv). Lower-casing, truncation, re-quoting or wrapping is therefore safe by construction. The telemetry command taxonomy of an unknown command is derived from the redacted token too.projectJsonErrorGuidance/renderBoundedGuidanceText). That object is redacted before its envelope, diagnostic budget and output accounting exist, so receipts measure the delivered bytes.runPmClitherefore registers such spans, with their shell and JSON escaping, in anAsyncLocalStoragescope, and the shared text rule removes them case-insensitively for CLI, telemetry and Sentry alike. Above 32 spellings it falls back to the whole-string rule.suggested_retryandsuggested_retry_argsare withheld from the guidance, and a restore step is added for both JSON and text.Why one PR: you asked for similar pm items to be bundled. All four items share the redaction primitive, and the package-weight tranche (pm-7ouxrr) is what lets the bundle fit under the 20 MB artifact ceiling.
The redaction primitive is also a public SDK export (
redactUrlCredentialsInToken,redactUrlCredentialsInText,URL_CREDENTIAL_PLACEHOLDER; additive surface change), so packages that echo caller input can apply the same rule. CLI code reaches it through the SDK, which the import-boundary gate requires.Also filed: pm-pwqiao. A
files/docs --addrefusal does not name the note segment that it misread as a key.Review rounds
Codex ran 9 rounds. Every finding was reproduced and fixed. The redaction design went through two rewrites:
The final P0/P1 gate on
af0851e2awas clean. Greptile rates it 5/5. CodeRabbit's full reviews are all addressed; its last trigger was rate-limited. All review threads are resolved.Follow-ups filed:
Package headroom after this PR is 949 B, so the next packaged-bytes PR needs a pm-998juj tranche.
Verification

Of the five timeout failures seen under concurrent load, four pass in isolation. The fifth iscomposed-continuation, which cannot resolve npm next to Homebrew's Node binary on this host; it is environment-only, and CI has a standard layout.
