Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to This PR introduces an outbound evaluator worker that executes server-managed code and coordinates transcript and result processing. A failure in the source restrictions could reach the worker's process resources, while malformed conditions or mismatched transcript identity could disrupt or misroute evaluations; protocol and lint issues also remain open.

- Medium/High Reconcile the active evaluator setup guide with the new boundary — The added README text says not to build new evaluators against the retired server-push contract and that no evaluator module is distributed. However, docs/reference/evaluator-sdk.mdx remains in the current docs navigation and instructs customers to install failproofai-sdk, import failproofai.evaluator, and expose POST /evaluate. The SDK package contains no evaluator module, so following that guide produces an import failure and directly contradicts the new migration guidance. (

- Medium/High Retire the still-published inbound evaluator guide — The new README says
agenteye-evaluatoris retired and no evaluator module is distributed (sdk/python/README.md:15-20). However, docs/docs.json:202 keeps the evaluator guide in active navigation, and docs/reference/evaluator-sdk.mdx:9, 47-49, and 130 instructs customers to install/importagenteye_evaluatorand implementPOST /evaluate. Customers following the current docs are therefore directed to the retired server-push contract the PR tells them not to adopt. (sdk/python/README.md:16)

The server lease expiry recovers the work, so the impact is limited, but atry/finallyaround the loop makes shutdown uniform for both exit paths.- The retryable server-error branch waits a fixed 1.0 second.

High: Bearer credentials and transcripts may use plaintext HTTP
- Rule:
SEC-001 - Location:
sdk/python/failproofai_sdk/evaluator/client.py:80 - Evidence:
EvaluatorClientaccepts anyhttpbase URL atclient.py:80, while every request includesAuthorization: Bearer <credential>at lines 181-184; transcript retrieval uses the same authenticated request path. A nested-container probe on this SHA acceptedhttp://plain.exampleand producedAuthorization: Bearer secret. The production example likewise accepts an HTTP judge URL and sends its optional bearer token and prompt/answer body. - Required change: Require HTTPS for non-loopback endpoints in both the client and example. If local HTTP is needed for tests or development, explicitly allow only loopback hosts and document that exception.

- Medium/High Timed-out synchronous evaluations continue running — Synchronous evaluators are run with
asyncio.to_threadatruntime.py:487, but their coroutine is only awaited throughasyncio.wait_forat lines 376-380. Cancelling that await cannot terminate the underlying thread; the runtime sends atimed_outresult afterward. A nested-container reproduction with a synchronous evaluator sleeping 0.2 seconds andtimeout_seconds=0.01submittedtimed_outbefore the function completed, then observed the function complete later. Side effects can therefore occur after the worker has reported the run terminal and cancellation hooks may race the still-running function. (sdk/python/failproofai_sdk/evaluator/runtime.py:487) - Medium/High Retire the active inbound evaluator guide — The changed SDK README says the inbound
agenteye-evaluatorcontract is retired at lines 15-19, but active navigation still exposesreference/evaluator-sdkindocs/docs.json:194-203. That page tells users to install/importagenteye_evaluator(docs/reference/evaluator-sdk.mdx:9) and deploy aPOST /evaluateservice (lines 126-141), which is incompatible with the new outbound worker model.

High: Non-loopback plaintext HTTP can send bearer credentials and transcripts
- Rule:
SEC-001 - Location:
sdk/python/failproofai_sdk/evaluator/client.py:100 - Evidence:
EvaluatorClientaccepts any non-loopbackhttp://base URL whenallow_insecure_http=True(client.py:100), while every request unconditionally carriesAuthorization: Bearer <credential>and transcript retrieval sends the full session to that origin.WorkerConfig.from_env()exposes this asFAILPROOFAI_EVALUATOR_ALLOW_INSECURE_HTTP, so a deployment setting can disclose both the worker credential and customer transcript to an on-path observer. - Required change: Remove the non-loopback HTTP override, or restrict it to loopback-only development use. Require HTTPS for every remotely reachable evaluator endpoint.
High: Timed-out synchronous evaluations continue running
- Rule:
COR-001 - Location:
sdk/python/failproofai_sdk/evaluator/runtime.py:586 - Evidence: The runtime applies
asyncio.wait_forto_invoke()(runtime.py:468), but synchronous evaluator functions run in aThreadPoolExecutor(runtime.py:586), whose running threads cannot be cancelled. A container probe timed out a synchronous evaluation at 5 ms and then observedsync_function_completed_after_timeout=True; meanwhile the runtime records and submits the run astimed_out. This can leave work running after its lease, consume all worker threads, and delay process shutdown. - Required change: Execute timeout-bound synchronous evaluations in a terminable process/subprocess or require a cooperative cancellation mechanism and do not report terminal timeout until the work is actually stopped. Add a regression test for a synchronous function that outlives its timeout.

…nitions An adversarial review of the server-authored `execution_mode='python'` evaluations (which run in the shared managed pod) found the AST sandbox escapable several ways: `str.format`/`format_map` C-level field traversal, generator/frame introspection (`gi_frame.f_globals`) that reached the eval globals and could poison a process-shared namespace across evaluations, and `type.mro()` type-object reach — none of which start with `_`, so the dunder guard never saw them. Replace the attribute denylist with a **default-deny allowlist** (the transcript data surface plus pure string/collection methods), give each eval **fresh per-call globals** so nothing persists between evaluations, and reject any result whose text embeds a runtime object repr (`<... at 0x...>`, the heap-pointer/ASLR disclosure that falls out of any bound method's repr) at the output boundary. Drop `enumerate` and bare generator expressions — both were gratuitous pointer-repr sources. Also compile managed source lazily inside the per-run executor, so a definition the sandbox rejects dead-letters as one bounded `failed`/`eval_error` run instead of crashing the assignment and being reclaimed until its attempt budget is spent.

The v2 worker long-polled the claim endpoint (wait_seconds, server held the request open up to 25s), which ties up a server request handler per idle worker and does not match the normal-polling cadence of our other cloud surfaces. The worker now polls normally: claim returns immediately, and on an empty claim the worker sleeps the server-advertised poll_interval_seconds (from the register response, default 10s) before polling again. Wire changes (mirrored with the server): ClaimRequest drops wait_seconds and MAX_CLAIM_WAIT_SECONDS is removed; RegisterResponse gains poll_interval_seconds, which the worker adopts like heartbeat_interval_seconds and rejects if non-positive. WorkerConfig drops claim_wait_seconds and the request_timeout_seconds > claim_wait_seconds constraint. Contract fixture updated in lockstep with the agenteye copy.

…SEC-001) Managed (server-authored) evaluations ran in an in-process ThreadPoolExecutor with an asyncio.wait_for timeout that only cancelled the awaiter — Python cannot kill the running thread, so `sum(range(10**20))` kept burning CPU well past the timeout and tied up the sole worker slot; conditions ran with no timeout at all. Run managed conditions/evaluators in a forked child with hard RLIMIT_CPU + RLIMIT_AS + a parent-side wall-clock SIGKILL, killed on timeout before capacity is released. The kernel enforces the limits on a separate process the parent can terminate outright — the one thing a thread cannot do. Only the result crosses back, as a small pickle, with the child's exception semantics preserved. `resource` is imported at module level (never in the child) and the child does only eval->pickle->write->_exit, so the fork holds no lock another thread owns. Defense in depth at compile: reject `**` with a large/non-constant exponent and cap AST size. A managed condition the sandbox rejects now dead-letters as condition_error instead of raising out of the plan loop. Also require execution_mode on the wire (F2): a falsy/missing value was silently coerced to `local`, running a `python` definition down the customer path. Only server-authored source is isolated; customer evaluators run their own trusted code in-process. New tests cover the compute/condition bombs, the AST bounds, the fork result round-trip, and the execution_mode rejection.

Hermes — Medium/High (COR-001): Managed list comprehensions that reference session fail on supported Python 3.10

On Python 3.10, comprehension bodies resolve session through globals: the nested-container probe of [session.event_count for i in [1]][0] >= 0 raised NameError.

…-001) Two SEC-001 problems in the fork-based sandbox: 1. os.fork() DEADLOCKS the worker. The managed worker is multi-threaded (asyncio loop, executor pool, writer daemon, health server); forking it and running Python in the child hangs on a lock another thread held at fork. Reproduced in the container: the worker registered, forked on its first managed eval, and hung (health down, no progress). Unit tests missed it because they fork from a single-threaded context. Replace fork-and-run-Python with fork+EXEC: a fresh `python -m failproofai_sdk.evaluator._sandbox_runner` process reads the (kind, source, transcript-wire, limits) tuple, installs RLIMIT_CPU + RLIMIT_AS on itself, evaluates, and returns the pickled result; the parent bounds wall-clock with subprocess timeout + kill. exec clears the inherited lock state, so it is safe from a multi-threaded process. Verified under real background-thread churn: normal eval works, compute + condition bombs are killed at budget, no hang. 2. The server-provided per-definition timeout had no upper bound, so a large timeout_seconds removed the execution bound. Clamp the effective CPU/wall budget to MAX_SANDBOX_TIMEOUT_SECONDS (60s). Fails closed (EvaluationSandboxUnavailable) if the sandbox cannot be spawned or the transcript is not serializable. Tests now use a real SessionTranscript (it must cross the process boundary via to_wire).

High: Bound sandbox output before loading it in the worker
- Rule:
SEC-001 - Location:
sdk/python/failproofai_sdk/evaluator/source.py:125 - Evidence:
_run_sandboxedcaptures the sandbox process's complete stdout withsubprocess.run(..., capture_output=True)and immediately callspickle.loads(completed.stdout)(source.py lines 125-137). The runner writespickle.dumps(("ok", run(session)))without validating or limiting the result (_sandbox_runner.py lines 36-43). Although an EvalResult is later limited byresult_items(), that happens only after it has been unpickled in the parent. A permitted expression such asEvalResult(metrics={str(x): 1 for x in range(100000)})successfully crosses the boundary with 100000 metrics; a larger server-supplied expression can make the parent retain an arbitrarily large stdout buffer and be OOM-killed despite the child RLIMIT. - Required change: Validate and bound an evaluator result inside the sandbox before serializing it (including
result_items()/the 25-result limit), serialize a bounded wire representation, and enforce a maximum stdout payload while reading the child process; kill and report an evaluation error when that limit is exceeded.

localis looked up solely by key and version (runtime.py lines 325-328). The condition selection then preferslocal.conditionwhenever that lookup succeeds (lines 340-350), without checkingdescriptor.execution_mode. The later execution path correctly switches on the descriptor's mode (lines 419-447). Thus, if a worker has a localhosted@1withwhen=lambda _: Falseand the server sends apythondefinition with the same key/version andcondition_source="True", the runtime skips the server-managed run instead of evaluating its condition. The inverse can execute a managed definition whose server condition should have skipped it. (sdk/python/failproofai_sdk/evaluator/runtime.py:340)

Hermes — High/High (SEC-001): Bound sandbox output before loading it in the worker
_run_sandboxed captures the sandbox process's complete stdout with subprocess.run(..., capture_output=True) and immediately calls pickle.loads(completed.stdout) (source.py lines 125-137). The runner writes pickle.dumps(("ok", run(session))) without validating or limiting the result (_sandbox_runner.py lines 36-43). Although an EvalResult is later limited by result_items(), that happens only after it has been unpickled in the parent. A permitted expression such as EvalResult(metrics={str(x): 1 for x in range(100000)}) successfully crosses the boundary with 100000 metrics; a larger server-supplied expression can make the parent retain an arbitrarily large stdout buffer and be OOM-killed despite the child RLIMIT.
Required change: Validate and bound an evaluator result inside the sandbox before serializing it (including result_items()/the 25-result limit), serialize a bounded wire representation, and enforce a maximum stdout payload while reading the child process; kill and report an evaluation error when that limit is exceeded.

Hermes — High/High (SEC-001): Bound the sandbox result crossing into the worker
The sandbox runner serializes the complete managed-evaluation result at _sandbox_runner.py:37, while the parent uses subprocess.run(capture_output=True) and unpickles all stdout at source.py:123-142. EvalResult.__post_init__ does not bound metrics or assertions (authoring.py:157-166); the 25-item limit is only checked later by result_items. A containerized reproduction accepted EvalResult(metrics={str(i): 1 for i in range(200000)}) and returned all 200,000 entries across the subprocess boundary. A managed definition can therefore construct and serialize a much larger mapping, causing the parent worker to buffer and unpickle it outside the child’s RLIMIT_AS boundary.
Required change: Validate result collection cardinality and value shapes before the sandbox serializes a successful result, and enforce a strict maximum sandbox stdout/result-pickle size before buffering or unpickling it in the parent. Treat an oversized result as a bounded failed evaluation.
The parent read the sandbox child's entire stdout and pickle.loads'd it, so a
permitted expression building a huge result (metrics={str(x):1 for x in
range(100000)}) could OOM the worker despite the child RLIMIT. Bound it on both
sides: the child now validates the result (result_items / the 25-result limit)
and refuses to serialize anything over SANDBOX_MAX_RESULT_BYTES (1 MiB) before it
crosses; the parent reads via a temp-file-in / Popen with a capped, timed stdout
read and kills the child on overflow or timeout. Input moves to a temp file (the
transcript can be large; feeding a big stdin while bounding stdout invites a pipe
deadlock). eval_key is threaded to the sandbox so the child can enforce the
25-item limit.

Hermes — Medium/High (COR-001): Matching local conditions override managed definition conditions
process_assignment looks up a local definition solely by (eval_key, eval_version) and then always selects local.condition when present (runtime.py:328-351), even when the descriptor's execution_mode is PYTHON. Thus a managed descriptor with condition source False and a same-key/version local definition whose condition returns True is selected and its managed evaluator runs. A nested-container reproduction confirmed that the local condition was called and the managed condition was ignored.
Required change: Only resolve and use a local definition when descriptor.execution_mode is ExecutionMode.LOCAL; for PYTHON, compile and invoke descriptor.condition_source regardless of any same-key local definition. Add a regression test for this collision.
A 2 GiB per-sandbox limit did not bound the host: max_concurrency up to 32 could run 32 sandboxes at once (~64 GiB), and a permitted expression can allocate memory before returning a valid result (`([0]*200000000, EvalResult(...))[1]`). Lower the per-sandbox address space to 512 MiB (generous for a <=25 MiB transcript, rejects the ~1.6 GiB allocation) AND cap concurrent sandbox processes with a semaphore, so the aggregate (~2 GiB) is bounded independent of the worker's claim concurrency.

- COR-001: managed (python) applicability now follows the server's
condition_source, never a colliding local condition with the same

mirroring the evaluator branch below it.
- API-001: recognize the server's `incomplete_plan` terminal error — added to
the ERROR_SPECS mirror and the shared contract.json fixture (byte-identical
with the server).
- Adversarial-audit (SEC): close a heap-address disclosure bypass. The
output-boundary `<obj at 0xADDR>` guard was anchored on `<`, so an allow-listed
str(x).replace("<","") / f-string / % kept the live address while stripping the
match. The defense moves to compile time: a bound method (the only reachable
value with a pointer repr — transcript and result types are frozen, pointer-free
dataclasses) may only be CALLED, never referenced as a bare value, so no
reachable value carries a pointer repr through str()/f-string/%. The
output-boundary scan is kept and broadened (no leading `<`) as defense in depth.
Regression tests cover the colliding-key condition, the three bypass payloads,
and that legitimate called-method/data-attribute stringification still works.

Hermes — High/High (SEC-001): Sandbox queue time is not included in the execution timeout
_run_sandboxed blocks indefinitely at with _SANDBOX_SLOTS (source.py:162) and only creates its wall-clock deadline after acquiring that slot (line 174). The runtime invokes this synchronous function in its ThreadPoolExecutor and asyncio.wait_for only cancels the awaiter (runtime.py:497-501), leaving executor threads already blocked on the semaphore to acquire a slot and launch sandbox processes after their runs were reported timed out. A nested-container repro with one slot and four 1-second managed compute bombs returned all callers at 1.0s but required 4.0s for the executor to drain. With the production limits, 32 concurrent managed conditions/evaluations can leave 28 worker threads queued behind four 60-second sandboxes; conditions have no runtime-level wait at all, so assignments can exceed their lease and the worker becomes unable to process new work.
Required change: Start a single deadline before attempting semaphore acquisition and acquire the sandbox slot with the remaining timeout; if acquisition times out, raise EvaluationTimeout without spawning a child. Pass the remaining budget to process execution, and add a regression test where invocations exceed MAX_CONCURRENT_SANDBOXES and verifies no timed-out invocation later starts a sandbox or occupies executor capacity.
`_run_sandboxed` acquired the MAX_CONCURRENT_SANDBOXES slot with an unbounded wait and only started its wall-clock deadline afterward. The runtime runs this in a thread and `asyncio.wait_for` cancels only the awaiter, so a run queued behind busy slots could — after its caller was already reported timed out — still acquire a slot and launch a sandbox; 28 threads could pile up behind 4 long sandboxes and starve the worker (conditions have no runtime-level wait at all). One wall-clock deadline now covers BOTH the slot wait and execution: the slot is acquired with the remaining budget, and on timeout (or a slot acquired exactly at the deadline) the run raises EvaluationTimeout without spawning a child. Regression test: more concurrent compute bombs than slots all resolve within ~one budget, not N serialized budgets.

- Medium/High Condition selection can outlive the assignment lease before heartbeats begin —
process_assignmentevaluates every descriptor condition serially before it submits the plan (runtime.py:327-388). A managed condition is permitted to consume its full sandbox budget of up to 60 seconds (source.py:577-597), while the heartbeat task is not created until after planning (runtime.py:390-467). Thus three managed conditions such assum(range(10**20)) > 0with a 60-second timeout exceed the normal 120-second lease beforeplanis called; the plan is fenced as lease-lost and the assignment is reclaimed instead of completing. The protocol allows up to 100 catalog definitions, so this is not limited to a malformed one-off payload. (sdk/python/failproofai_sdk/evaluator/runtime.py:327)
…ld's env Found reviewing #758 alongside agenteye#652 as one system, with a real server, a managed worker and two customer-hosted workers running. Surface the reason a server-authored definition was rejected Every failure collapsed to "evaluation raised <TypeName>", so a hosted definition that can never run reported only "evaluation raised UnsafeEvaluatorSource" — on every session, forever, with nothing telling the author what was wrong. It matters because the server accepts any source that passes its size and key checks: it does not (and in Rust cannot cheaply) validate the sandbox's single-expression grammar, so a definition that is structurally unrunnable is published with 201 Created and then fails silently per-session. Observed exactly that end to end: a perfectly ordinary multi-statement evaluator was accepted by the API and failed every session with no diagnosis. UnsafeEvaluatorSource now reports its detail ("evaluator_source must be one expression"), bounded to MAX_ERROR_MESSAGE_BYTES. Deliberately narrower than the generic handler, which still reports the type name only: UnsafeEvaluatorSource is raised by our own validator BEFORE any customer source executes and its message describes the source's shape, so it carries no transcript content — whereas an arbitrary eval exception can quote the transcript it was reading into a field that is persisted and displayed. Ordered before `except Exception` so it is reachable (it subclasses ValueError). Scrub the sandbox child's environment subprocess.Popen inherited os.environ, so the sandbox executing untrusted server-authored source ran with FAILPROOFAI_EVALUATOR_TOKEN in its environment — on the FailproofAI-managed pod, the cross-tenant credential the whole fleet authenticates with. The AST allowlist and empty __builtins__ stop a managed expression from reaching os.environ today, so this is defence in depth rather than a live escape: it means a future gap in those restrictions cannot be escalated into credential theft. Only what the interpreter needs is forwarded, PYTHONPATH included — without it the child cannot import the sandbox runner at all. Verified: 148 evaluator tests pass. The sandbox itself held under direct attack — open()/eval()/globals() die as NameError on empty builtins, dunder and introspection attributes are refused at compile time, and a 10**9-element allocation bomb was contained as a per-eval MemoryError in 497ms with no host memory movement.

- Medium/High Lease can expire while conditions are evaluated before planning —
process_assignmentevaluates every descriptor's condition serially in the loop beginning atruntime.py:329, then sends the plan at line 392. The heartbeat task is not created until line 469, after planning succeeds. A managed condition with no declared timeout receives the 30-second default (source.py:612); five slow conditions therefore exceed the normal 120-second lease, and a valid catalog can contain up to 100 definitions. The subsequent plan request will be fenced as lease-lost, causing the assignment to be reclaimed and the same expensive condition phase to repeat. (sdk/python/failproofai_sdk/evaluator/runtime.py:329)
…es a fast interpreter `test_condition_compute_bomb_is_also_bounded` failed on CI under Python 3.14 after the previous commit, while passing locally — the signature of a machine-speed coin flip rather than a real regression. The cause is the bomb's size, not the sandbox. The test asserts that a CPU-bound condition cannot finish inside its budget, but used `sum(range(10**8))` against a 1-second budget: ~1.35 CPU-seconds measured on 3.14, a 1.35x margin. On a fast enough runner the sum simply completes and nothing times out. 3.14 is the version that fails first because it is the fastest — 1.35s against 3.13's 1.44s here. Its evaluator twin one function above already uses `10**9` (~13x margin) for the same 1-second budget, so the condition variant was carrying a bomb ten times smaller for no stated reason. Matching it restores the margin and costs no wall-clock: the sandbox kills the child at its budget either way, so a bigger bomb only widens the gap between "killed" and "could have finished". The test still completes in ~1.06s. This changes a test rather than the code because the code is correct — the property under test (a CPU bomb in a condition is stopped by the sandbox budget) is unchanged and now actually verified rather than raced. The threshold was the defect. Also records this PR's two SDK fixes in the changelog section they belong to. Verified with CI's own command on the version that failed: `uv sync --locked --extra dev --python 3.14 && uv run pytest tests/ -q` — 961 passed, 9 skipped, 0 failed.
