feat(sandbox): Phase 7 PR-A — @anthropic-ai/sandbox-runtime dep + doctor + ADR 0014

Lays the foundation for multi-tenant provider spawning isolation per
ADR 0014 § Decision. NO production wiring — PR-B (anthropic.mjs spawn
wrap) lands separately and requires bubblewrap + socat + ripgrep
installed on PI231 first.

Files:
- package.json: add @anthropic-ai/sandbox-runtime ^0.0.52
- lib/sandbox/doctor.mjs (new): preflight checkSandboxAvailability +
  describeSandboxStatus; pure module, no state, no initialize() call
- server.mjs: /health response gains 'sandbox' field with availability
  + missing deps + install hint; result memoized via _sandboxStatusCache;
  __resetSandboxStatusCache() test seam exported
- docs/adr/0014-sandbox-runtime-integration.md (new): 4-PR layered
  rollout decision per Iron Rule 11; PR-B/C/D acceptance criteria
  previewed; 6 spike pitfalls recorded; 282 lines
- CHANGELOG.md: Unreleased entry under Phase 7 PR-A
- test-features.mjs Suite 42 (+8 tests, 797 → 805, all pass)

Authority:
- @anthropic-ai/sandbox-runtime v0.0.52 — anthropic-experimental org
  https://github.com/anthropic-experimental/sandbox-runtime
- 2026-05-28 PoC spike (verdict YELLOW; report at /tmp/sandbox-spike/
  on PI231): clean arm64 install, dep check fail-closed behaviour
  confirmed, three PoC scripts parked
- cc-mem incident memory § 4 (prior-art search — ecosystem hasn't
  solved multi-tenant fs/tool isolation)
- ADR 0009 Amendment 1 § Caveats #3 — sandbox is cloud prerequisite
- docs/plans/cloud-deployment-family.md § 5

Spike note (macOS): on dev Mac mini with rg via Homebrew,
SandboxManager.isSupportedPlatform()=true and checkDependencies()
returns no errors — macOS uses built-in sandbox-exec, not bwrap.
/health.sandbox.available=true on macOS dev, false on PI231 until
apt install.

Operational follow-ups (NOT this PR):
1. sudo apt-get install -y bubblewrap socat ripgrep on PI231 (5-min window)
2. PR-B: lib/providers/anthropic.mjs spawn wrap + negative test
   (in-sandbox cat of OAuth token MUST fail)
3. PR-C: lib/providers/codex.mjs wrap with enableWeakerNestedSandbox:true
4. PR-D: cloud deployment plan update + unblock

Tests: 797 → 805 (all pass, 0 fail).

---
## 1. Context
### 1.1 The multi-tenant security gap
OLP is a personal-scale proxy (ADR 0001 § Non-commercial). However, the "family-scale" deployment model means multiple human callers share a single OLP instance — each with their own OLP API key (ADR 0007) but all using the same underlying `claude` or `codex` CLI installation on the server host.
The security gap, identified in the 2026-05-27 session and captured in cc-mem incident memory § 3, is:
1. **OAuth token exposure.** A malicious (or misbehaving) prompt to the Anthropic provider could elicit a `cat ~/.olp/keys/...` or similar read of any file the OLP process user can access — including the OAuth credentials file that allows the attacker to impersonate the server-side identity.
2. **Codex shell-tool execution.** The `codex exec` path exposes a shell tool to the model. With OLP acting as a relay, a prompt to codex from one client could execute arbitrary commands in the server process's working directory, reading or writing files belonging to other clients.
3. **Cross-tenant data leakage.** Even without adversarial prompts, a model that freely accesses the filesystem could inadvertently leak one client's cached context to another client's response.
The 2026-05-27 prior-art search (incident memory § 4) surveyed the multi-tenant LLM proxy ecosystem (LiteLLM, OpenCode, CLIProxyAPI, open-source Anthropic proxies) and found that **none solve multi-tenant file-system and tool isolation at the OS level**. The field's typical answer is "don't run multi-tenant" or "use a separate VM per tenant" — neither applicable at OLP's family scale.
### 1.2 Anthropic's official answer: `@anthropic-ai/sandbox-runtime`
The `@anthropic-ai/sandbox-runtime` package (Anthropic Experimental org, `anthropic-experimental/sandbox-runtime`, v0.0.52 as of this ADR) is Anthropic's open-source solution to wrapping security boundaries around arbitrary processes. It is the library that Claude Code itself uses internally to sandbox MCP servers and tool execution.
The library provides:
- **Linux:** bubblewrap (`bwrap`) namespace isolation + socat network bridge + seccomp filter via `apply-seccomp-filter` binary. Ripgrep (`rg`) is required for deny-path glob expansion.
- **macOS:** `sandbox-exec` seatbelt profile, which is a built-in OS facility (no additional packages required).
Both paths enforce filesystem read/write restrictions and network policy at the kernel level, not at the process level. A `cat ~/.olp/keys/...` inside the sandbox fails at the syscall layer regardless of what the shell or model requests.
### 1.3 The 2026-05-28 spike
A PoC spike was conducted on PI231 (arm64 Debian Bookworm) on 2026-05-28. Key findings:
1. **`npm install @anthropic-ai/sandbox-runtime@0.0.52` succeeds cleanly** on arm64 Linux. No native build step; prebuilt binaries were available.
2. **`SandboxManager.isSupportedPlatform()` returns `true`** on PI231 (Linux, not WSL).
3. **`SandboxManager.checkDependencies()` reports errors**: `bubblewrap (bwrap) not installed`, `socat not installed`, `ripgrep (rg) not found`. These are the three OS-level deps that must be installed separately (not bundled in the npm package).
4. **The install fix is a one-liner**: `sudo apt-get install -y bubblewrap socat ripgrep`. This is a 5-minute operational task, not a code change.
5. **Three PoC scripts** were parked at `/tmp/sandbox-spike/` on PI231 verifying: dependency check return shapes, `SandboxManager.wrapWithSandbox` call signature, and filesystem-deny path behaviour.
Verdict: **YELLOW** — architecturally green (the library works and the platform is supported), operationally blocked on apt deps. PR-A lays the dependency + doctor layer. PR-B wraps the anthropic spawn after apt install.

## 2. Decision
### 2.1 Layered rollout (Iron Rule 11 — minimum reviewable unit)
The sandbox integration is split into four discrete PRs, each independently reviewable and independently safe to land or revert:
| PR | Scope | Blocking condition | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| **PR-A** (this PR) | npm dep `@anthropic-ai/sandbox-runtime ^0.0.52` + `lib/sandbox/doctor.mjs` (preflight module) + `/health` `sandbox` field + ADR 0014 | None — no runtime initialization | ✅ Accepted |
| **PR-B** | `lib/providers/anthropic.mjs` spawn wrapped in `SandboxManager.wrapWithSandbox` | `bubblewrap` + `socat` + `rg` installed on PI231 (`sudo apt-get install -y bubblewrap socat ripgrep`) | 🔲 Blocked on apt install |
| **PR-C** | `lib/providers/codex.mjs` spawn wrapped with `enableWeakerNestedSandbox: true` | PR-B accepted + codex PoC on PI231 | 🔲 Blocked on PR-B |
| **PR-D** | `docs/plans/cloud-deployment-family.md` § "Phase 7 prerequisite met" update; cloud rollout unblocked | PR-B + PR-C accepted | 🔲 Blocked on PR-C |
Rationale for the split:
- **PR-A is safe without bwrap.** The doctor module and `/health` field add observability with no runtime side effects. No `SandboxManager.initialize()` call. No sandbox spawned.
- **PR-B is the load-bearing security gate.** Wrapping `anthropic.mjs` spawn requires empirical negative-test confirmation (in-sandbox `cat ~/.olp/keys/...` MUST fail). This cannot be verified until PI231 has bwrap installed.
- **PR-C follows PR-B** because codex has a distinct issue: codex itself uses bubblewrap internally (`codex exec` spawns its own sandbox). `enableWeakerNestedSandbox: true` is required to allow the inner sandbox to function inside the outer OLP sandbox.
- **PR-D is documentation-only** and depends on the runtime PRs being proven in production.
### 2.2 PR-A specific scope (binding)
PR-A MUST NOT include:
- Any call to `SandboxManager.initialize()` (no real sandbox created)
- Any modification to `lib/providers/anthropic.mjs`, `lib/providers/codex.mjs`, or `lib/providers/mistral.mjs`
- Any new HTTP endpoint (no `/metrics`, no new dashboard endpoint)
- Any modification to `models-registry.json`
PR-A MUST include:
- `package.json` dependency: `"@anthropic-ai/sandbox-runtime": "^0.0.52"`
- `lib/sandbox/doctor.mjs`: pure preflight module (no state; no initialization)
- `/health` response: top-level `sandbox` field (`available`, `missing`, `platform`, `message` when unavailable)
- `docs/adr/0014-sandbox-runtime-integration.md` (this document)
- `CHANGELOG.md` Unreleased entry
- `test-features.mjs` Suite 42 (8 new tests, all passing)
---
## 3. `lib/sandbox/doctor.mjs` design
### 3.1 Exports
```javascript
// Returns { available: boolean, missing: string[], details: { ... } }
export async function checkSandboxAvailability() { ... }
// Returns { ok: boolean, message: string } — human-readable summary
export async function describeSandboxStatus() { ... }
```
### 3.2 `checkSandboxAvailability` algorithm
1. Probe OS deps independently via `child_process.execFileSync('which', [binary])`:
- `bwrap` (Linux only — macOS uses built-in `sandbox-exec`)
- `socat` (Linux only)
- `rg` (ripgrep — Linux only; macOS seatbelt profiles use regex patterns natively)
2. Call `probeLibrary()` which `import()`s `@anthropic-ai/sandbox-runtime` and calls:
- `SandboxManager.isSupportedPlatform()` — platform classification
- `SandboxManager.checkDependencies(undefined)` — library's own dep check (called without initialize, falling back to PATH lookup)
3. Compute `missing[]`: on Linux, add 'bubblewrap', 'socat', 'ripgrep' for each absent dep; if library import failed, add that too.
4. `available = libLoaded && isSupportedPlatform && missing.length === 0`
`probeLibrary()` wraps everything in try/catch — any library-side error becomes `{ libLoaded: false, libError: '<reason>' }` rather than an unhandled rejection.
### 3.3 `/health` integration
The `sandbox` field is added to the full (owner-tier) payload only. For trimmed payloads (guest/anonymous per ADR 0007 § 7.1), the field is absent (consistent with the existing trim model). This prevents leaking infrastructure details to non-owner callers.
The result is memoized process-wide via `_sandboxStatusCache` in `server.mjs`. The install state of bwrap/socat cannot change at runtime without a process restart, so a single lazy fetch at the first `/health` call is correct.
```json
{
"ok": true,
"version": "0.5.1",
"providers": { ... },
"sandbox": {
"available": false,
"missing": ["bubblewrap", "socat", "ripgrep"],
"platform": "linux",
"message": "Sandbox dependencies not available: bubblewrap not installed, socat not installed, ripgrep not installed. Install: sudo apt-get install -y bubblewrap socat ripgrep"
}
}
```
When available (after apt install + process restart):
```json
{
"sandbox": {
"available": true,
"missing": [],
"platform": "linux"
}
}
```
---
## 4. PR-B/C/D acceptance criteria (preview — locked in later PRs)
These criteria are recorded here to prevent scope creep in the later PRs. Criteria may be refined by subsequent ADR amendments.
### 4.1 PR-B (anthropic.mjs spawn wrap)
**Load-bearing negative test (required for PR-B to merge):**
```bash
# On PI231, with bwrap+socat installed, with PR-B wired:
olp-keys list # identify owner key
curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:4567/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Authorization: Bearer <owner-key>" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"model":"claude-sonnet-4-6","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"run: cat /home/<user>/.olp/keys/owner-key.json"}]}'
# Expected: response MUST NOT contain any content from the keys file.
# The model must either say it cannot access the filesystem, or produce an
# error. Any response containing the file content is a PR-B blocking failure.
```
Additional criteria:
- `SandboxManager.initialize()` is called once at startup (per ADR 0014 § 5 singleton decision, TBD in PR-B ADR amendment)
- p95 latency overhead of wrapping ≤ 200ms measured over 50 warm requests
- `checkSandboxAvailability().available === true` reported in `/health.sandbox` after PR-B rolls out
- All existing Suite 41 tests continue to pass (stream-json transport unaffected)
### 4.2 PR-C (codex.mjs wrap)
- `enableWeakerNestedSandbox: true` is set in the `SandboxManager.initialize()` call (or per-spawn config if the API allows per-spawn override — verify against v0.0.52 API)
- `codex exec` inner bubblewrap nest still functions: a sandboxed codex invocation that reads from an allowed path succeeds
- Analogous negative test: in-sandbox `cat /home/<user>/.olp/keys/...` MUST fail
### 4.3 PR-D (cloud deployment plan update)
- `docs/plans/cloud-deployment-family.md` § 5 "Phase 7 prerequisite" section updated: "sandbox-runtime integration (PR-B + PR-C) confirmed operational on PI231; prerequisite met"
- `README.md` § "Supported Providers" or § "Security" updated with a note about sandbox isolation
- Phase 7 close PR per `CLAUDE.md release_kit.phase_rolling_mode`
---
## 5. Open questions (to be resolved in PR-B)
1. **Singleton vs per-spawn initialization.** `SandboxManager` is a process-wide singleton (per the library's `reset()` being a global operation). The current design plan is one `initialize()` call at server startup with a union config covering all providers. If providers require different configs (e.g., different `denyRead` paths for anthropic vs codex), this may require a mutex approach or separate singleton instances. Decision reserved for PR-B.
2. **`SandboxManager.reset()` in tests.** The singleton means test suites that call `initialize()` must call `reset()` in their `after()` hooks. PR-B must add this discipline or tests will leak sandbox state across suites.
3. **MITM proxy and Claude CLI cert pinning.** The sandbox-runtime network bridge on Linux uses a local MITM proxy to intercept HTTPS traffic. If `claude` CLI pins certificates (e.g., for `api.anthropic.com`), HTTPS through the bridge may fail. PR-B must empirically verify this on PI231 before merging.
4. **macOS `sandbox-exec` profile content.** macOS uses a seatbelt (SBPL) profile, not bwrap. The profile must explicitly allow `network outbound "api.anthropic.com"` etc. The default profile may be too restrictive for the Claude CLI's OAuth refresh calls. PR-B must test macOS as well as Linux.
5. **`getDefaultWritePaths()` output.** The library exports `getDefaultWritePaths()` which returns the paths the sandbox always allows writing to. OLP's spawn directory may not be in that list — PR-B must verify the working directory is writable or pass it explicitly in `filesystem.allowWrite`.
---
## 6. Pitfalls inherited from the spike (binding warnings for PR-B/C authors)
These were confirmed empirically or inferred from the library source during the 2026-05-28 spike:
1. **Three OS deps, not one.** The npm package bundles nothing. Linux requires: `bubblewrap` (bwrap), `socat`, `ripgrep` (rg). All three. Missing even one → `checkDependencies()` returns errors → `wrapWithSandbox` will fail at runtime.
2. **Linux deny-paths are literal, not glob.** The library's `linuxGetMandatoryDenyPaths()` uses ripgrep to expand glob patterns to concrete paths before passing them to bwrap. But custom `filesystem.denyRead` entries that contain glob chars (`~/.ssh/*`) must be either expanded manually OR passed as the glob form (the library expands them if `rg` is available). The safe convention for PR-B: use absolute literal paths (e.g., `/home/<user>/.ssh`) rather than `~/`-prefixed or glob paths.
3. **`enableWeakerNestedSandbox: true` is required for codex.** Codex's `exec` subcommand spawns its own bubblewrap sandbox internally. Without `enableWeakerNestedSandbox`, the outer OLP sandbox blocks the inner codex sandbox from creating user namespaces. The flag loosens the outer sandbox's seccomp filter specifically to allow `clone(CLONE_NEWUSER)` — the inner sandbox then runs with reduced but non-zero isolation.
4. **`SandboxManager.reset()` is process-wide.** Calling `reset()` anywhere (including test teardown) clears the singleton config. Any concurrent in-flight spawn that still holds a reference to the old sandbox state will break. PR-B's design must either (a) initialize once at boot and never reset, or (b) use a mutex to prevent concurrent init/reset.
5. **MITM CA generation is async and expensive.** `SandboxManager.initialize()` generates a self-signed CA certificate for the MITM proxy on Linux. This takes ~100-500ms. Initialize at server startup, not per-request.

---
## 8. Consequences
### Positive
- **Multi-tenant isolation at the OS level.** After PR-B+C land, each provider spawn runs inside a bubblewrap (Linux) or sandbox-exec (macOS) boundary. A prompt-injected `cat ~/.olp/keys/...` hits a kernel-level deny. Cross-client filesystem leakage is structurally prevented, not just mitigated by prompt engineering.
- **Cloud deployment unblocked.** `docs/plans/cloud-deployment-family.md` § 5 cites sandbox as the hard prerequisite for moving from family-LAN to cloud. PR-D closes this gate.
- **Observability from day one.** The `/health.sandbox` field makes the install state machine-readable. Any monitoring script or dashboard can tell whether sandbox isolation is active without SSH access.
- **Anthropic's official library.** Using `@anthropic-ai/sandbox-runtime` rather than a home-grown bwrap wrapper means OLP inherits Anthropic's tested integration patterns (deny-path expansion, MITM proxy, seccomp, macOS seatbelt profiles) rather than reinventing them. When the library updates, OLP upgrades via `npm update`.
### Negative
- **Three new OS-level dependencies.** `bubblewrap`, `socat`, and `ripgrep` must be installed on every host running OLP with sandbox isolation active. Absent these deps, sandbox is unavailable (but OLP continues to function without isolation — degraded security, not degraded functionality). The `/health.sandbox.available` field makes this state explicit.
- **p95 latency overhead.** The spike did not measure sandbox wrapping overhead directly (blocked on apt install). Expected overhead per the sandbox-runtime README: ~100-200ms for sandbox initialization amortized over the process lifetime (one-time at startup); per-spawn overhead is the namespace clone + filesystem mount overhead, typically <50ms on modern kernels. PR-B's acceptance criteria gates on ≤200ms p95 overhead over 50 warm requests.
- **Codex inner-sandbox degradation.** `enableWeakerNestedSandbox: true` loosens the outer OLP sandbox's seccomp filter to allow `clone(CLONE_NEWUSER)`. The codex inner sandbox still runs with meaningful isolation (its own namespace, its own deny-list), but the combined depth of protection is less than ideal compared to a world where codex didn't self-sandbox.
- **Library is experimental.** The `anthropic-experimental` org signals this is not a production-stable API. The version pin (`^0.0.52`) provides a minor-range buffer but the API surface may change. If the library is deprecated or the API breaks, OLP's fallback is to remove the sandbox wrapping (reverting PRs B-D) until a replacement path is found. This is acceptable at family scale — security degradation is not a service outage.
### Reversibility
- **PR-A** is trivially reversible: `npm uninstall @anthropic-ai/sandbox-runtime` + delete `lib/sandbox/doctor.mjs` + revert server.mjs and CHANGELOG changes. No production behavior changes.
- **PR-B/C** are reversible by removing the `SandboxManager.wrapWithSandbox` call from each provider's `spawn()` method. The spawn falls back to the current unsandboxed path.
- **PR-D** is a documentation update; reverting it is a docs-only change.

## Status transitions
- 2026-05-28 — Created. Status: Accepted for PR-A scope. PR-B/C/D pending operational prereqs.
