Let a later embedded runtime take over TinySecurity's secret scope once the first is released - #8540
An embedded Runtime built after an earlier one was released in the same process can use TinySecurity again. Before this change every security call from the second runtime failed with security secret scope changed after module admission: the prompt screen held every message ("Prompt flagged for security review and was not processed") and tool-call classification was unavailable.
Cause
security::host_callbacks::ensure_loaded remembers the secret scope the TinySecurity module was admitted with, keyed by <config dir>/.secret_key, and refuses any later caller whose config derives a different path. openhuman-embed gives each Runtime its own scratch config directory. So once the first runtime was released, the next one derived a new path and was refused the module for good.
Nothing else about the secret state had changed. The module is never unloaded, the process keyring stays rooted where the first runtime put it, and every secret operation (security_secret_scope(), the cipher consumer, the master registration) already reads the one admitted state no matter whose config the caller holds. The check's only effect was the refusal.
Fix
The guard still refuses a different scope. What changes is when a scope counts as different: a module now belongs to one live scope at a time, not to its first config forever.
host_callbacks keeps the live owner of the admitted scope, which starts as the admitting .secret_key path. While that owner is live, a caller with any other path gets the same security secret scope changed after module admission error as before.
New openhuman_core::security::release_secret_scope() marks the owner as released. After that, the module can be taken over only by the admitting scope itself or by a scope the host declared transient with the new openhuman_core::security::declare_transient_secret_scope(config_dir). A durable scope is still refused (… a durable scope cannot take over a released one), so it never encrypts persisted credentials under another scope's master key. Declarations are cleared on every release.
Each release bumps an epoch. The callback load captures it before it is scheduled and records its scope as owner only if no release happened in between. So a detached load that outlives its runtime (a cancelled build or turn) cannot reclaim the module for the released scope.
The synchronous adapters (text.rs: log and tool-result scrubbing, the privacy gate, provider-host classification) used to keep the config they were first armed with in a OnceLock. They now take the latest admitted config, so after a takeover they present the current owner's scope.
openhuman-embed declares the scratch directory of an Ephemeral / Stateless workspace as transient when it resolves the workspace, and release_process_slot() releases the scope wherever RUNTIME_LIVE is released (when CoreGuard drops after its core, and on a failed or cancelled build). Both calls are unconditional: the core's default features include TinySecurity even when the facade's own security-module feature is off, and the calls are no-ops without it.
Hosts that never call release_secret_scope (desktop, CLI) behave exactly as before.
Why take over the module rather than re-admit it or change the scope's identity
Re-admitting is not possible. TinySecurity keeps its secret state in a process OnceLock and rejects any change to its audit configuration on reinitialization ("immutable audit initialization"). TinyBus has no unload. The module cannot be given a second scope during the process's lifetime, so the only choices are to refuse the later runtime or to let it run under the admitted scope.
Keying on the keyring directory would weaken the guard. The keyring directory is a process-wide OnceLock, so it is identical for every later config, including a genuinely different user's. Using it as the identity would hand one live scope another scope's master key. Liveness is what actually tells "the previous owner is gone" apart from "two scopes want the module at once", and only the host knows when its core is released.
Changing how the scope is derived (user id, opaque ids) would move existing installs' master-key slots and break decryption of persisted secrets.
Public API / behaviour changes
New: openhuman_core::security::release_secret_scope() and openhuman_core::security::declare_transient_secret_scope(&Path). Always compiled; no-ops without security-module.
openhuman-embed: releasing a Runtime also releases the TinySecurity secret scope, so the next runtime in the process, if it uses a scratch workspace, takes the module over. A durable workspace (Dir, Inherit) built after another scope is still refused, as before. No change to its public API.
Tests
crates/openhuman-embed/tests/security_second_runtime.rs (new, single #[test]): two runtimes in turn, prompt screen enforced, real TinySecurity release, the facade's default features. In each, the model calls a host tool and then answers. The prompt must be screened and pass, and the tool result must reach the model unredacted. Fails before the fix: the second runtime's prompt is held (TinySecurity scan unavailable … security secret scope changed after module admission). It also fails if only the sync adapters keep their first config: the tool result becomes *[REDACTED].
crates/openhuman-embed/tests/security_live_scope.rs (new): while the admitting runtime is live, security::ensure_loaded with a config in another directory is still refused with security secret scope changed after module admission, and the live runtime still screens its turns afterwards.
crates/openhuman-core/src/modules/security/host_callbacks_tests.rs (new) covers the claim rules:
the owning scope is held;
a different live scope is refused, even a transient one;
after a release a transient scope takes over, the admitting scope takes its module back, and a durable scope is refused;
the lifecycle: a stale-epoch publish after a release is ignored, declarations reset on release, and the released scope is refused once a new owner holds the module.
Both embed tests need the TinySecurity release, so they are #[ignore]d and run from scripts/ci/security-native-fixture.sh. security-native.yml now also triggers on crates/openhuman-embed/src/runtime/** and on the two test files.
Validation run locally
cargo test -p openhuman-embed --test security_second_runtime -- --ignored (default features, OPENHUMAN_MODULE_PATH set to the 0.18.4 release): fails before the fix, passes after it. It also fails with the sync adapters' set-once config restored.
sync_seam still keeps the Tokio handle it was first armed on. A host that runs each embedded runtime on a different Tokio runtime, and drops the first, leaves the synchronous adapters without a live handle. That is unchanged by this PR and is not what embedders do today (a process-wide runtime). It needs its own change.
Summary by CodeRabbit
Bug Fixes
A released runtime no longer prevents a subsequent runtime from enforcing security. Different secret scopes remain blocked while the original runtime is active.
Preserved security access for an active runtime when another runtime attempts to use a different secret scope.
Tests
Added native integration coverage for runtime handoff, prompt screening, and secret-scope protection.
Documentation
Clarified how runtime shutdown releases its security scope and how a subsequent runtime takes over.
Add a Cargo test target for a new integration test that exercises a second embedded runtime reaching the TinySecurity module admitted by a released first one. The target requires the security-module feature and is ignored by default since it needs the module's release.

Admitted modules now track which secret scope currently owns them, so a

What changed
`ensure_loaded` no longer compares a caller's derived `.secret_key` path to the admitting scope; it now asks `claim` whether the admitted module's live owner matches, refuses a different live owner with the same `security secret scope changed after module admission` error, and after a release permits takeover only by the admitting scope itself or by a scope registered via `declare_transient_scope`. Ownership state carries a release epoch, captured by `scope_epoch()` before a detached load is scheduled in `ensure_loaded_with_security_callback`; `publish_owner` refuses to record an owner when the epoch moved, so a load started by a released runtime cannot reclaim the module, and `release_scopes` also clears transient declarations. The public surface moves to `openhuman_core::security` with feature-gated no-op variants of `release_secret_scope` and `declare_transient_secret_scope`. `openhuman-embed`'s builder declares a transient scope when the resolved workspace has a scratch (`_temp`) directory, and `release_process_slot()` now calls the release unconditionally before clearing `RUNTIME_LIVE`, invoked from `CoreGuard`'s drop and the failed-build `SlotClaim` drop. `modules/security/text.rs` replaces the `OnceLock<Config>` with an `RwLock<Option<Config>>` so every arm replaces the config the sync adapters use, read through `armed_config()`.
Features
Added — Epoch-guarded live scope ownership with transient-scope takeover: The admitted module belongs to one live scope at a time: a matching live owner is held, a different live owner is refused, and after a release the module may be taken over only by the admitting scope or a declared transient scope, so a durable config cannot encrypt state under another scope's master key. A load scheduled before a release cannot publish its scope as owner after the release. (crates/openhuman-core/src/modules/security/host_callbacks.rsasync fn register_scope(config: &Config, state: &SecurityCallbackState) -> Resul, crates/openhuman-core/src/modules/security/host_callbacks.rspub(in crate::modules) async fn ensure_loaded(, crates/openhuman-core/src/modules/security/host_callbacks.rstype SecurityCallbackLoads =)
Added — Public `release_secret_scope()` and `declare_transient_secret_scope()` on the core security module: Hosts can release the admitted scope after dropping their core and declare scratch config directories whose secrets do not outlive the runtime; both are no-ops in builds without the `security-module` feature, and hosts that never call them keep the prior refusal behavior. (crates/openhuman-core/src/security/mod.rspub use schemas::{)
Modified — Detached callback loads capture the release epoch before scheduling: A load that starts before the caller's runtime is released cannot record that released runtime's scope as the module's owner when it later finishes. (crates/openhuman-core/src/modules/ops.rsasync fn ensure_loaded_with_security_callback()
Modified — `release_process_slot()` releases the secret scope alongside `RUNTIME_LIVE`: Releasing a `Runtime` or an abandoned build releases the admission scope so the next runtime can take the module over; the call is unconditional because the core may include TinySecurity even when the embed crate's own feature is off. (crates/openhuman-embed/src/runtime/mod.rsimpl Drop for CoreGuard {, crates/openhuman-embed/src/runtime/build.rsimpl RuntimeBuilder {, crates/openhuman-embed/src/runtime/build.rsstruct SlotClaim {)
Modified — Builder declares transient scope for scratch workspaces: A runtime resolving to a temporary config directory is declared transient so it may take over a released runtime's module; a durable directory is not, preserving the master-key protection for persisted secrets. (crates/openhuman-embed/src/runtime/build.rsimpl RuntimeBuilder {)
Modified — Sync text adapters read a replaceable armed config: The redaction and provider-host adapters present the most recently admitted config's scope rather than the first one that armed them, so a runtime taking over the module reaches it through the synchronous path as well. (crates/openhuman-core/src/modules/security/text.rspub(crate) fn classify_provider_host_blocking(, crates/openhuman-core/src/modules/security/text.rspub(crate) fn privacy_check_blocking(, crates/openhuman-core/src/modules/security/text.rspub(crate) fn redact_blocking()
Added — Ignored embed integration test registered for the security-module feature: `security_live_scope` is registered behind `security-module` and ignored by default because it needs the TinySecurity release; `security_second_runtime` now runs on the facade's default features and is no longer declared as a separate feature-gated target. (crates/openhuman-embed/Cargo.tomlrequired-features = ["profiles"], crates/openhuman-embed/tests/security_live_scope.rs, crates/openhuman-embed/tests/security_second_runtime.rs)
Modified — Runtime README documents scope release on slot release: Documents that releasing the process slot also releases the TinySecurity secret scope and that the next runtime takes the module over. (crates/openhuman-embed/src/runtime/README.mdan ephemeral one), and the installed session store. Both `Runtime` and every)
Tests
integration_test — `security_second_runtime` builds two runtimes in turn against the real TinySecurity release with the prompt screen enforced, has the model call a host `lookup` tool and answer, and asserts the scrubbed tool result reaches the model for both runtimes, covering both the async client and the synchronous adapters.: Ignored by default and dependent on the module release; the critique lane's open finding states the agent handle must be dropped before `remove_agent`, which this revision still does not do. Not confirmed as executed or passing. (crates/openhuman-embed/tests/security_second_runtime.rs)

None.

description
Conclusion: Success
Scope reviewed: all assigned evidence
Positive: Description lane kept the deadlock finding open (both tests still call `remove_agent` with a live agent handle), dropped the import finding as not verifiable, and raised at low confidence that a released runtime's detached load could overwrite `text::CONFIG` after a takeover.
Lane summary: The prior critical (deadlock) is not fixed: `security_second_runtime.rs` and `security_live_scope.rs` still call `runtime.remove_agent(...)` while the agent handle is alive, and `openhuman-registry`'s `remove_agent` is a real durable removal, so I keep it. The prior unresolvable-import finding is not verifiable: `tinyagents_session::port::InMemorySessionStores` is used across many existing tests, so I drop it. The new epoch/ownership machinery still lets a released runtime's detached load overwrite `text::CONFIG` after a takeover, which is a concrete misbehaviour I could not fully confirm from the lookups, so I flag it at low confidence. (1 earlier finding(s) still open) _The code index is behind this pull request (indexed at `f0c5217f1789`), so retrieved context may be out of date._
The security module now tracks secret-scope ownership by module and key path, and uses release epochs to prevent stale loads from publishing ownership. Runtime teardown releases the scope with the process slot. New tests cover live-scope refusal and sequential runtime reuse.
Host callbacks track scope owners, transient declarations, and release epochs. Loads capture the epoch and apply scope-claim rules. Security adapters use the latest successfully armed configuration. Unit tests cover refusal, release, and takeover behavior.
Runtime scope release and declaration crates/openhuman-embed/src/runtime/mod.rs, crates/openhuman-embed/src/runtime/build.rs, crates/openhuman-embed/src/runtime/README.md
Runtime teardown releases the TinySecurity secret scope and clears the process-wide runtime flag. Runtime builds declare transient scopes for temporary workspaces.
Native integration coverage and CI wiring crates/openhuman-embed/tests/security_*.rs, crates/openhuman-embed/Cargo.toml, scripts/ci/security-native-fixture.sh, .github/workflows/security-native.yml
Ignored native tests cover live-scope refusal and sequential runtime reuse. Cargo targets, the fixture script, and the workflow path filter include the tests.
Releasing an embedded runtime can disrupt security operations in another live core. Scope release should be restricted to its owner before merging, and the native tests still need held-prompt assertions to verify screening remains active.

Drop the agent handle before calling remove_agent to avoid deadlock
`runtime.remove_agent(name)` acquires a mutable reference to the runtime's agent registry and sends a cancellation signal to the agent. But `agent` is still alive at this point — it is dropped two lines later. The `Runtime::remove_agent` implementation likely waits for the agent's turn to finish (or at least holds an internal lock that the agent's drop also needs), while `agent` is still borrowing from the runtime. In similar designs across the codebase (e.g., `tests/agent_lifecycle.rs`), the agent handle is dropped *before* calling `remove_agent`. Here the agent's drop happens *after* `remove_agent`, which can cause a deadlock or a panic from a double-free / poisoned lock depending on the inner implementation. The correct order is: wait for the outcome, drop the agent, then remove it (or just drop the runtime, which calls remove internally).

Resolve or remove the unresolvable InMemorySessionStores import
Line 17 imports `InMemorySessionStores` from `tinyagents_session::port`. Lookups at the reviewed head for struct, enum, type, and trait all returned "No line contains that text", and the type is not found in any searched file. If this type does not exist at this commit, the file will not compile. The author must either add the type definition in its expected location, correct the import path, or remove the dependency.
Module loads now capture the release epoch before being scheduled and only publish their scope as owner if no release happened in between, so a detached load finishing after its runtime was dropped can no longer claim ownership. Released modules may only be taken over by the admitting scope or a scope declared transient, keeping durable scopes from encrypting state under another scope's master key.

Accept either security rejection message for the held prompt.
The post-refusal turn sends BENIGN, which the prompt screen passes. A runtime with screening off returns the same Paris reply and two model requests. The final assertions therefore do not show that screening still runs.
After the refusal, send INJECTION. Assert that the turn returns an error with either security rejection message. Assert that no new model request is made. The run loop uses "Prompt blocked by security policy." for Blocked and "Prompt flagged for security review and was not processed." for ReviewBlocked. Accepting both messages keeps the assertion valid for either verdict. The benign second turn stays in place.

The scope claim logic now takes the admitting scope and a transient flag so a durable scope is refused a module whose owner was released while a transient one may take it over. Tests were reworked around a shared admitted path and a single lifecycle test to cover release, declaration, and stale-epoch publishing.

Scratch-directory runtimes now declare their config directory as a transient secret scope so they can take over the TinySecurity module left admitted by a released runtime, while durable directories are excluded to avoid keeping secrets under another scope's master key. The release path also calls the core's release unconditionally, since the core builds TinySecurity in by default regardless of this crate's feature flag.

The second-runtime security test now drives a host tool call as well as a
plain prompt, so it checks that a runtime built after another is released
still delivers its tool result to the model scrubbed rather than replaced
by the redaction placeholder. The turn helper was reworked to script a
lookup call and return what the model actually saw.

…eatures
Adds a security_live_scope integration test target gated on the security-module feature, and drops the explicit feature selection from the native fixture script so the second-runtime test runs with the facade's default features instead.

Preserve per-directory master keys for persistent runtimes
For sequential runtimes with distinct persistent config roots, such as /profiles/a/config.toml followed by /profiles/b/config.toml, this now accepts B while retaining A's SecretBackend.user_id, secret scope, and registration ID. SecretStore::run_security_cipher() reads those retained values, so existing B credentials cannot be decrypted and newly saved B ciphertext is encrypted with A's key. Starting B first in a later process derives B's key slot instead, leaving that ciphertext unreadable. Keep the refusal for distinct persistent credential roots unless their backend and registration can be safely rebound; changing the owner path alone breaks the per-config_path credential/keyring invariant.

Rebind the synchronous security adapter during takeover
Once a second runtime takes ownership under a different config directory, the synchronous adapter still holds the first runtime's config: modules/security/text.rs stores it in a OnceLock<Config>, and text::arm() only calls set. Consequently, redact_blocking() requests the module with the old key path and is rejected by the new owner check. The installed credential_scrub::scrub_with_notice_for_tool() middleware then takes its error branch and replaces every tool result in the second runtime with a redaction placeholder. The new text-only completion test misses this. Update the synchronous adapter alongside ownership and cover a tool-response round trip in the second runtime.

Keep the native CI fixtures on release-only module sources
Both new tests run in the security-native.yml matrix through scripts/ci/security-native-fixture.sh:113–123, but common::runtime() calls link_tinyflows() when modules is enabled (tests/common/mod.rs:109–117). That helper registers tinyflows_module::linked_module and explicitly selects ModuleSourceMode::Linked, so this new CI path executes a gitlink-built TinyFlows implementation rather than its pinned release. This violates the release-only CI requirement in AGENTS.md. Use a runtime helper without linked factories and resolve or stage any required modules as releases.
Reformatted the test's tool-call setup and tool registration closure to satisfy rustfmt, with no change to the behaviour being exercised.

remove_agent before dropping the agent: remove_agent does not wait on the handle the test holds. This is the order the existing single-test binaries use (prompt_screen_off.rs, support/security_tool.rs), and both new tests run to completion without hanging. No change.

Disarm the text adapter when releasing its secret scope
For sequential stateless runtimes sharing a still-live Tokio executor, a diagnostic scrub between dropping the first runtime and admitting the second can undo this release. core::log_redaction::scrub_secrets() (also used by Sentry) still invokes the adapter with the first runtime's cached text::CONFIG; its redact → client → ensure_loaded path captures the new epoch, and claim_scope(None, admitted, admitted, ...) allows publish_owner to record the old config as owner again. The second runtime is then refused every security call even though the first has been dropped. Clear/disarm the adapter when releasing ownership, or prevent diagnostic calls from acquiring a released scope, and cover a diagnostic scrub between runtime instances.

Compare secret scope paths by resolved identity, not by spelling.
claim_scope compares the .secret_key paths with ==. When one config directory is loaded through its canonical path and later through a symlink, the second ensure_loaded call returns "security secret scope changed after module admission". Resolve the directory with canonicalize before the comparison. The base revision has the same lexical comparison, so this is not a regression from this PR.

Add a regression test for the stale first admission in ensure_loaded.
The lifecycle test calls publish_owner directly and never calls ensure_loaded.

A change that records the released scope as owner at that call would not fail any inspected test.
Add a test that captures scope_epoch(), calls release_scopes(), runs ensure_loaded with the captured epoch for a first admission, and asserts that no owner is recorded for that scope.

Drain only the module owner that the releasing core holds.
release_scopes clears every module owner, not only the owner of the core being dropped. If another live core in the same process owns TinySecurity, dropping an embedded runtime clears that owner. A later transient runtime can then take the module, and the other core's next security load fails with "security secret scope changed after module admission."
Suggested direction
Pass the releasing core's admitted secret scope into the release path. Remove only that owner, and keep other live owners unchanged.

Summary
An embedded
Runtimebuilt after an earlier one was released in the same process can use TinySecurity again. Before this change every security call from the second runtime failed withsecurity secret scope changed after module admission: the prompt screen held every message ("Prompt flagged for security review and was not processed") and tool-call classification was unavailable.Cause
security::host_callbacks::ensure_loadedremembers the secret scope the TinySecurity module was admitted with, keyed by<config dir>/.secret_key, and refuses any later caller whose config derives a different path.openhuman-embedgives eachRuntimeits own scratch config directory. So once the first runtime was released, the next one derived a new path and was refused the module for good.Nothing else about the secret state had changed. The module is never unloaded, the process keyring stays rooted where the first runtime put it, and every secret operation (
security_secret_scope(), the cipher consumer, the master registration) already reads the one admitted state no matter whose config the caller holds. The check's only effect was the refusal.Fix
The guard still refuses a different scope. What changes is when a scope counts as different: a module now belongs to one live scope at a time, not to its first config forever.
host_callbackskeeps the live owner of the admitted scope, which starts as the admitting.secret_keypath. While that owner is live, a caller with any other path gets the samesecurity secret scope changed after module admissionerror as before.openhuman_core::security::release_secret_scope()marks the owner as released. After that, the module can be taken over only by the admitting scope itself or by a scope the host declared transient with the newopenhuman_core::security::declare_transient_secret_scope(config_dir). A durable scope is still refused (… a durable scope cannot take over a released one), so it never encrypts persisted credentials under another scope's master key. Declarations are cleared on every release.text.rs: log and tool-result scrubbing, the privacy gate, provider-host classification) used to keep the config they were first armed with in aOnceLock. They now take the latest admitted config, so after a takeover they present the current owner's scope.openhuman-embeddeclares the scratch directory of anEphemeral/Statelessworkspace as transient when it resolves the workspace, andrelease_process_slot()releases the scope whereverRUNTIME_LIVEis released (whenCoreGuarddrops after its core, and on a failed or cancelled build). Both calls are unconditional: the core's default features include TinySecurity even when the facade's ownsecurity-modulefeature is off, and the calls are no-ops without it.Hosts that never call
release_secret_scope(desktop, CLI) behave exactly as before.Why take over the module rather than re-admit it or change the scope's identity
OnceLockand rejects any change to its audit configuration on reinitialization ("immutable audit initialization"). TinyBus has no unload. The module cannot be given a second scope during the process's lifetime, so the only choices are to refuse the later runtime or to let it run under the admitted scope.OnceLock, so it is identical for every later config, including a genuinely different user's. Using it as the identity would hand one live scope another scope's master key. Liveness is what actually tells "the previous owner is gone" apart from "two scopes want the module at once", and only the host knows when its core is released.Public API / behaviour changes
openhuman_core::security::release_secret_scope()andopenhuman_core::security::declare_transient_secret_scope(&Path). Always compiled; no-ops withoutsecurity-module.openhuman-embed: releasing aRuntimealso releases the TinySecurity secret scope, so the next runtime in the process, if it uses a scratch workspace, takes the module over. A durable workspace (Dir,Inherit) built after another scope is still refused, as before. No change to its public API.Tests
crates/openhuman-embed/tests/security_second_runtime.rs(new, single#[test]): two runtimes in turn, prompt screen enforced, real TinySecurity release, the facade's default features. In each, the model calls a host tool and then answers. The prompt must be screened and pass, and the tool result must reach the model unredacted. Fails before the fix: the second runtime's prompt is held (TinySecurity scan unavailable … security secret scope changed after module admission). It also fails if only the sync adapters keep their first config: the tool result becomes*[REDACTED].crates/openhuman-embed/tests/security_live_scope.rs(new): while the admitting runtime is live,security::ensure_loadedwith a config in another directory is still refused withsecurity secret scope changed after module admission, and the live runtime still screens its turns afterwards.crates/openhuman-core/src/modules/security/host_callbacks_tests.rs(new) covers the claim rules:#[ignore]d and run fromscripts/ci/security-native-fixture.sh.security-native.ymlnow also triggers oncrates/openhuman-embed/src/runtime/**and on the two test files.Validation run locally

sync_seamstill keeps the Tokio handle it was first armed on. A host that runs each embedded runtime on a different Tokio runtime, and drops the first, leaves the synchronous adapters without a live handle. That is unchanged by this PR and is not what embedders do today (a process-wide runtime). It needs its own change.Summary by CodeRabbit
