Today's user-visible bug ("PUT /workspaces/<id>/files/config.yaml: 500
… install: cannot create directory '/opt/configs': Permission denied",
fixed in #2769) shipped to production and was caught only when an
operator opened the Canvas Config tab and clicked Save & Restart on
a claude-code workspace. Two compounding root causes:
1. Path-map fall-through: claude-code wasn't in
workspaceFilePathPrefix, so it fell through to the /opt/configs
default — a path the workspace EC2 doesn't have (cloud-init only
creates /configs).
2. Permission: /configs is root-owned, but the SSH-as-ubuntu install
command had no sudo prefix, so the write would have failed with
EACCES even with the right path.
The synth E2E provisions a fresh workspace every cron firing but
never PUTs a file via the Files API. So neither failure mode could
fail the canary.
Add a new step 7c (between terminal-diagnose and A2A) that:
- PUTs a known marker into config.yaml on each provisioned workspace
- GETs it back and asserts the marker is present
- Fails with an actionable message that names the likely class of
regression (path map vs permission) so the next operator doesn't
have to re-discover today's debugging path
The marker includes the run ID so stale state from a prior canary
can't false-pass.
Why round-trip (not just PUT-and-200): a 200 from PUT only proves the
SSH install succeeded somewhere on disk; the GET-back proves the file
landed at the path the runtime actually reads from (i.e., that the
host:/configs → container:/configs bind-mount sees it). Without the
GET, a future bug that writes to a non-bind-mounted host path would
silently no-op from the runtime's POV but pass the gate.
Deferred (separate PR, requires AWS-creds wiring): a parallel gate
that aws ec2 describe-instances on the workspace EC2 and asserts the
attached IamInstanceProfile.Arn — would directly catch the #466 IAM
profile gap class. Punted because it needs aws-actions/configure-aws-
credentials added to continuous-synth-e2e.yml + a read-only IAM role
provisioned on the AWS side. Tracked as task #301.

Tests
This repo uses the standard monorepo testing convention: unit tests live with their package, cross-component E2E tests live here.
Where to find tests
| Scope | Location |
|---|---|
| Go unit + integration (platform, CLI, handlers) | workspace-server/**/*_test.go — run with cd workspace-server && go test -race ./... |
| TypeScript unit (canvas components, hooks, store) | canvas/src/**/__tests__/ — run with cd canvas && npm test -- --run |
| TypeScript unit (MCP server handlers) | mcp-server/src/__tests__/ — run with cd mcp-server && npx jest |
| Python unit (workspace runtime, adapters) | workspace/tests/ — run with cd workspace && python3 -m pytest |
| Python unit (SDK: plugin + remote agent) | sdk/python/tests/ — run with cd sdk/python && python3 -m pytest |
| Cross-component E2E (spans platform + runtime + HTTP) | tests/e2e/ ← you are here |
Why split this way
- Go requires co-located
_test.gofiles to access unexported symbols. - Per-package test commands keep the inner loop fast — changing canvas doesn't re-run Go tests.
tests/e2e/covers scenarios that no single package owns: a full workspace lifecycle, A2A across two provisioned agents, delegation chains, bundle round-trips.
Running E2E
Every E2E script here assumes the platform is running at localhost:8080 and (where noted) provisioned agents are online. See the header comment of each .sh for specifics.
Cleaning up rogue test workspaces
If an E2E run aborts before its teardown runs (Ctrl-C, crash, CI timeout),
the platform can be left with workspaces whose config volume is stale or
empty — Docker's unless-stopped restart policy then spins those
containers in a FileNotFoundError loop. The platform's pre-flight check
(#17) marks such workspaces failed on the next restart, but a manual
cleanup is useful:
bash scripts/cleanup-rogue-workspaces.sh # deletes ws with id/name starting aaaaaaaa-, bbbbbbbb-, cccccccc-, test-ws-
MOLECULE_URL=http://host:8080 bash scripts/cleanup-rogue-workspaces.sh
The script DELETEs each matching workspace via the API and
force-removes the ws-<id[:12]> container as a belt-and-suspenders
fallback.
