## Problem
The test suite contained several categories of latent brittleness
identified in docs/testing-brittle-tests.md that would surface during
refactoring or cross-platform (Windows) CI execution:
1. Hardcoded Unix paths: \Path::new("/tmp")\ and \PathBuf::from("/tmp")\
used as workspace directories in agent tests, which fail on Windows
where /tmp does not exist.
2. Exact string match assertions: ~20 \ssert_eq!(response, "exact text")\
assertions in agent unit and e2e tests that break on any mock wording
change, even when the underlying orchestration behavior is correct.
3. Fragile error message string matching: \.contains("specific message")\
assertions coupled to internal error wording rather than testing the
error category or behavioral outcome.
## What Changed
### Hardcoded paths → platform-agnostic temp dirs (4 files, 7 locations)
- \src/agent/tests.rs\: Replaced all 4 instances of \Path::new("/tmp")\
and \PathBuf::from("/tmp")\ with \std::env::temp_dir()\ in
\make_memory()\, \uild_agent_with()\, \uild_agent_with_memory()\,
and \uild_agent_with_config()\ helpers.
- \ ests/agent_e2e.rs\: Replaced all 3 instances in \make_memory()\,
\uild_agent()\, and \uild_agent_xml()\ helpers.
### Exact string assertions → behavioral checks (2 files, ~20 locations)
- \src/agent/tests.rs\: Converted 10 \ssert_eq!(response, "...")\ to
\ssert!(!response.is_empty(), "descriptive message")\ across tests for
text pass-through, tool execution, tool failure recovery, XML dispatch,
mixed text+tool responses, multi-tool batch, and run_single delegation.
- \ ests/agent_e2e.rs\: Converted 9 exact-match assertions to behavioral
checks. Multi-turn test now uses \ssert_ne!(r1, r2)\ to verify
sequential responses are distinct without coupling to exact wording.
- Provider error propagation test simplified to \ssert!(result.is_err())\
without asserting on the error message string.
### Fragile error message assertions → structural checks (2 files)
- \src/tools/git_operations.rs\: Replaced fragile OR-branch string match
(\contains("git repository") || contains("Git command failed")\) with
structural assertions: checks \!result.success\, error is non-empty,
and error does NOT mention autonomy/read-only (verifying the failure
is git-related, not permission-related).
- \src/cron/scheduler.rs\: Replaced \contains("agent job failed:")\ with
\!success\ and \!output.is_empty()\ checks that verify failure behavior
without coupling to exact log format.
## What Was NOT Changed (and why)
- \src/agent/loop_.rs\ parser tests: Exact string assertions are the
contract for XML tool call parsing — the exact output IS the spec.
- \src/providers/reliable.rs\: Error message assertions test the error
format contract (provider/model attribution in failure messages).
- \src/service/mod.rs\: Already platform-gated with \#[cfg]\; XML escape
test is a formatting contract where exact match is appropriate.
- \src/config/schema.rs\: TOML test strings use /tmp as data values for
deserialization tests, not filesystem access; HOME tests already use
\std::env::temp_dir()\.

Remove 'branch' from requires_write_access() to resolve the
contradiction where branch listing was classified as both read-only
and write-requiring. Branch listing only enumerates local refs and
has no side effects, so it should remain available under ReadOnly
autonomy mode.
Add regression tests:
- branch_is_not_write_gated: verifies classification consistency
- allows_branch_listing_in_readonly_mode: verifies end-to-end
execution under ReadOnly autonomy
- is_read_only_detection: now explicitly asserts branch is read-only

* fix(security): expand git argument sanitization
Expand sanitize_git_args() blocklist to also reject --pager=, --editor=,
-c (config injection), --no-verify, and > in arguments. Apply validation
to git_add() paths and git_diff() files argument (previously only called
from git_checkout()). The -c check uses exact match to avoid
false-positives on --cached.
Closes#516

Eliminate low-risk clippy warnings as part of the strict lint backlog (#409):
- Remove unused `uuid::Uuid` imports from slack and telegram channels
- Remove unnecessary `mut` and redundant rebindings in agent loop
- Prefix unused `channel_id` variable in discord channel
- Remove unused test imports (`ChatResponse`, `ToolCall`, `TempDir`, `Path`)
A duplicate ModelCommands enum was introduced in a recent merge,
causing E0119/E0428 compile errors on CI (Rust 1.92).
