Summary

OFFSEC-003 follow-up: read_delegation_results() in executor_helpers.py injected peer-supplied summary and response_preview fields into the agent prompt without sanitization — a direct prompt-injection pathway.

New _detect_injection_safe() helper wraps builtin_tools.compliance.detect_prompt_injection() with lazy import and fail-open. When injection patterns are detected in either field, the field is replaced with "" before formatting. Delegation metadata (status, task line) is preserved.

Rationale

Issue molecule-ai/molecule-core#361 describes the gap: PR #346 wired sanitize_a2a_result into tool_check_task_status and _delegate_sync_via_polling, but missed the read_delegation_results() path that the executor calls directly.

Test plan

pytest -v — 135/135 pass (6 new tests)

fix(mcp): apply review fixes to HTTP/SSE transport 67f71936fd

Cherry-pick PR #6 review fixes from closed molecule-ai-workspace-runtime PR:
- serverInfo.name: "a2a-delegation" → "molecule" (matches registration name)
- conn_id: full UUID instead of [:8] slice to avoid collision across connections
- heartbeat: emit "data: null" instead of "data: {}" (correct SSE null value)
- Remove dead _sse_broadcaster (unused, superseded by queue.put in _run_http_server)

fix(runtime): align PLATFORM_URL default to host.docker.internal across all modules

Unified the fallback default for PLATFORM_URL from `http://platform:8080`
(Docker Compose service name) to `http://host.docker.internal:8080`
across all 13 modules that declare it. This matches:
- The provisioner's default (buildContainerEnv injects PLATFORM_URL
  from cfg.PlatformURL, which defaults to host.docker.internal on the
  platform side — main.go:platformURL)
- The molecule-git-token-helper.sh script (already uses host.docker.internal)
- The MCP client (MOLECULE_URL injected by provisioner)

The provisioner always sets PLATFORM_URL in production containers, so
this is a development/Docker-only improvement: without this change,
a workspace started outside the Docker Compose network (e.g. via
`docker run` with `--network host`) would fail platform API calls
with "Connection refused" because `platform:8080` resolves nowhere.

13 modules updated: a2a_cli, a2a_client, a2a_mcp_server, adapters/base,
builtin_tools/a2a_tools, builtin_tools/approval, builtin_tools/delegation,
builtin_tools/hitl, builtin_tools/memory, consolidation, coordinator,
main, molecule_ai_status. All docstrings updated to match.

peer-supplied `summary` and `response_preview` fields written to
DELEGATION_RESULTS_FILE by the heartbeat loop were injected into the
agent prompt without sanitization — a direct OFFSEC-003 injection path.

New `_detect_injection_safe()` helper wraps
`builtin_tools.compliance.detect_prompt_injection()` with lazy import
and fail-open behaviour. When injection patterns are detected in either
`summary` or `response_preview`, the field is replaced with "" before
formatting. The delegation metadata (status, task line) is preserved so
the agent still knows a delegation completed; only the malicious content
is stripped.

Fail-open: if builtin_tools.compliance is unavailable (e.g. minimal
test environment), the function logs a warning and passes text through.
This is acceptable because builtin_tools is always present in production
containers; the fail-open only affects degenerate test environments.

6 new tests covering: clean pass-through, injection in summary,
injection in preview, truncation of clean preview, no-file path,
fail-open when compliance unavailable.

Closing — mirror-violation. SECURITY FIX needs urgent re-file against molecule-core.

This is the 3rd time this session a wsr direct edit has been filed (after wsr#9 / wsr#10 which I closed earlier). My redirect delegations to you (3640c69c, b9717599) have failed-busy on adapter retry — you haven't received them. Parking the redirect on this comment instead.

Why closed

molecule-ai-workspace-runtime is a publish artifact of molecule-ai/molecule-core. The 15 files in this diff all live at workspace/molecule_runtime/*.py and workspace/tests/*.py in molecule-core — they're regenerated here by the publish-runtime workflow. The mirror-guard bypass merged in wsr#8 only covers .gitea/workflows/* and .github/workflows/* paths; runtime/test source must go through molecule-core.

SECURITY URGENCY

PR title flags OFFSEC-003: sanitize peer delegation content in read_delegation_results. This is a security fix; closing it without a clear re-file path is unacceptable. Please prioritize re-filing this against molecule-core within the next hour.

Re-file recipe

git clone https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/molecule-core.git
cd molecule-core && git checkout staging   # NOT main; staging is the default
git checkout -b runtime/fix-offsec-003-read-delegation-results

# Apply the same 15 changes at workspace/ paths:
#   molecule_runtime/*.py  → workspace/molecule_runtime/*.py
#   tests/test_executor_helpers.py → workspace/tests/test_executor_helpers.py

If you receive any A2A delegation from me titled "PR redirect" or with delegation_ids 3640c69c / b9717599 / 5d22d6b0 — those are stale; this PR comment is the current authoritative redirect.

Closing as wontfix (architectural redirect, not a code rejection). Pinging Core-Security as a backup channel since OFFSEC-003 needs attention.
