fix(web): resolve POSIX-style drive paths in workspace file and image links - #780
Harness-written Markdown links carry Windows absolute paths in a POSIX-style drive form (/D:/SoilDepth/…). The Web document preview resolves such a request against the Session workspace root with Node's win32 resolver, which reads /D: as a directory named D: under the current drive — so a file that exists inside the workspace fails with workspace-file/not-found and the preview reports it as missing. The local image reader behind GET /api/file and Thread attachment previews has the same gap: its isAbsolute gate passes the prefixed form, but the subsequent resolution misses the file. Codex Desktop's own renderer canonicalizes the same prefix before opening links; Web did not.
Based on upstream main at 85a72c1 (chore: prepare v0.18.0-beta.4), targeting main.
Canonicalize the prefix away in WorkspaceFiles' five public endpoints (read, readBytes, stat, list, changes), so every gate, watcher, and error message sees the corrected path. Plain workspace-absolute paths (/plan/…), drive-letter paths (D:/…), device paths (\\?\C:\…), and UNC paths are unchanged.
Apply the same canonicalization to readImageFile, covering both call sites (/api/file and attachment previews). Relative-path and non-absolute refusals are unchanged.

Fixes#781 — filed with environment, root cause, and reproduction steps; first seen on a real Codex Thread in codexhost Web 0.18.0-beta.3.
Evidence
Reproduction: Windows 11, codexhost 0.18.0-beta.3 Web, Codex harness with workspace root D:\SoilDepth. Clicking the Thread message link [项目记录](/D:/SoilDepth/soilProcessLearning/plan/paper2-residual-diffusion-discussion-2026-11-09.md) opened the document preview with 文件不存在 (no entry at "/D:/…"); path.resolve("D:\\SoilDepth", "/D:/SoilDepth/…") yields D:\D:\SoilDepth\…. The same link without the leading slash (D:/SoilDepth/…) opens the preview.
The focused specs reproduce without credentials; each new case requests a real file through the /D:/-prefixed absolute path and fails with workspace-file/not-found (or an unavailable image) before the fix:
CODEXHOST_TEST_SCOPE=platform npx vitest run --config tests/vitest.config.js tests/dsh/workspace-files/read.spec.ts tests/dsh/workspace-files/stat.spec.ts tests/dsh/workspace-files/list.spec.ts tests/dsh/workspace-files/read-bytes.spec.ts tests/dsh/workspace-files/changes.spec.ts tests/integration/web-image-drive-prefix.test.ts
npm run typecheck
npm run lint
Local checks (Windows 11, Node 24):
RED (fix stashed): the six new cases fail — five with workspace-file/not-found from the workspace service, the image case with attachment-not-found on the prefixed path. GREEN (fix applied): 110 passed / 4 failed across the six focused files.
The 4 remaining failures are fs.symlink EPERM on this machine (symlink creation needs elevated privileges or Developer Mode); verified identical on pristine main via git stash — same tests, same EPERM, unrelated to this change.
npm run typecheck (incl. tests/tsconfig.json), npm run lint (incl. tools/check-boundaries.mjs), and prettier --check on the changed files: all clean.
The readBytesbaseFile rejection of absolute paths keeps the same gateway/bad-request code for prefixed paths (now via the scheme branch instead of the leading-slash branch).
… links
Harness-written Markdown links carry Windows absolute paths in a
POSIX-style drive form (/D:/...). The Web workspace file service
resolved that form against the workspace root, where win32 resolution
reads /D: as a directory named "D:" under the current drive - an
existing file then failed with workspace-file/not-found and the
document preview reported it missing. readImageFile, behind GET
/api/file and attachment previews, passed its isAbsolute gate on the
prefixed form but missed the file the same way.
Canonicalize the prefix away at the five public WorkspaceFiles
endpoints (read, readBytes, stat, list, changes) and in readImageFile,
matching the Desktop renderer's own handling of such links. Plain
workspace-absolute, drive-letter, device (\?\C:\) and UNC paths are
unchanged.

…seFile
CodeRabbit review follow-up: a directory named D: is legal on POSIX, so
the `/D:/` prefix is now stripped only on Windows, in both the
WorkspaceFiles service and readImageFile; POSIX keeps the path verbatim.
Also normalize `options.baseFile` in readBytes, so a relative path
against a prefixed base file resolves instead of failing with
workspace-file/not-found. Adds a POSIX-preservation case (skipped on
Windows) and a prefixed-baseFile case, with a red-state run confirming
both fail without their fix.

The pull_request run for fc9be58 concluded failure with only the ARM64
leg created; ubuntu/macos/windows jobs never materialized, and rerun
needs upstream admin rights. Upstream main is unchanged (85a72c1), and
the previous run for 4e10331 expanded all four legs and passed, so
this looks like a GitHub-side runner provisioning hiccup rather than a
configuration problem.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Code <noreply@anthropic.com>
Heads-up so the red macOS ✗ reads in context — this PR's check runs were hit by two independent infrastructure issues today, neither in the diff.
The GitHub Actions incident (18:12–18:43 UTC)
Runs for fc9be58 (review follow-up) and 1266f6a were created inside the Actions/Checks API incident. In both runs most Check * matrix legs never materialized as jobs — run for fc9be58 contained only the ARM64 job, run for 1266f6a only the macOS job — so they concluded failure without ever having run those lanes. Rerun needs upstream admin, so I retried by push once the incident was mitigated.
The retrigger run (346bc72)
windows-latest ✅ — the platform this bug reproduces on, including all new platform-gated cases
ubuntu-22.04 ✅, Linux ARM64 ✅
macos-26 ❌ — but every vitest file passes there, including all workspace-files specs and the POSIX-preservation case this PR adds (read.spec.ts: 31 tests, 1 skipped — the win32-gated one). The job fails later in the node:test relay suite: relay-http2.test.ts ("serves authenticated h2 RPC…", ERR_HTTP2_INVALID_SESSION, "The session has been destroyed") and the TLS ClientHello 10-second-deadline case — both session-race signatures in transport code this diff does not touch.
For attribution: the same macOS lane passed the same relay suite for 4e10331b an hour earlier, and main itself had several failed CI runs today with different transport tests each time (16:46, 16:45, 13:20 UTC). Happy to rerun the macOS lane if you'd like, or to dig further if it reproduces on main.
