- Introduced a .nvmrc file to specify the Node.js version (22) for the project, ensuring consistent development environments.
- Enhanced error handling in the startServer function to provide clearer messages when the Node.js executable cannot be found, improving debugging experience.
- Updated package.json files across various modules to enforce Node.js version compatibility and ensure consistent dependency versions.
These changes aim to streamline development processes and enhance the application's reliability by enforcing version control and improving error reporting.
- Introduced a restricted file system wrapper to ensure all file operations are confined to the script's directory, enhancing security.
- Updated various modules to utilize the new secure file system methods, replacing direct fs calls with validated operations.
- Enhanced path validation in the server routes and context loaders to prevent unauthorized access to the file system.
- Adjusted environment variable handling to use centralized methods for reading and writing API keys, ensuring consistent security practices.
This change improves the overall security posture of the application by enforcing strict file access controls and validating paths before any operations are performed.
- Use crypto.timingSafeEqual() for API key validation (prevents timing attacks)
- Make WebSocket tokens single-use (invalidated after first validation)
- Add AUTOMAKER_HIDE_API_KEY env var to suppress API key banner in logs
- Add rate limiting to login endpoint (5 attempts/minute/IP)
- Update client to fetch short-lived wsToken for WebSocket auth
(session tokens no longer exposed in URLs)
