Fixes #1955

Removes the root-level sibling bypass that treated any two workspaces with parent_id IS NULL as siblings. In a multi-tenant table each org root has parent_id IS NULL, so this check allowed cross-tenant communication between unrelated org roots.

Changes

  • Delete the caller.ParentID == nil && target.ParentID == nil fast-path in CanCommunicate
  • Update doc comment: root-level workspaces in different orgs are NOT siblings
  • Rename/adapt test: TestCanCommunicate_RootSiblings → TestCanCommunicate_Denied_CrossTenantRoots (expects denial)

Verification

  • go test ./workspace-server/internal/registry/... — all tests pass
  • go build ./... clean

SOP checklist

Comprehensive testing performed: go test ./workspace-server/internal/registry/... green; go build ./... clean; sqlmock tests cover self, sibling, parent/child, ancestor/descendant (including grandparent↔grandchild), and cross-tenant root denial paths.

Schema assumption verified: Each org tree is expected to have exactly one parent_id IS NULL root. The existing maxAncestorWalk = 32 cap in isAncestorOf prevents infinite loops from cycles. The orgRootSubtreeCTE (used by sameOrg / broadcast handler) uses LIMIT 1 to select a single root defensively. A future schema migration could add a unique partial index on parent_id IS NULL per org subtree, but that is out of scope for this PR.

Local-postgres E2E run: N/A — this is a registry package logic change with no DB schema or query changes (sqlmock unit tests cover all branches).

Staging-smoke verified or pending: pending post-merge; the change is behind the existing CanCommunicate call path used by a2a routing.

CORRECTION to my earlier capable-review verdict: #2110 is INCOMPLETE. The core access.go change (remove the root-sibling bypass) is correct, but removing it breaks other tests that asserted the old root-sibling behavior — CI / Platform (Go) is RED here, and cross_tenant_isolation_test.go (and handlers_additional/extended_test.go) on main still assert the pre-fix behavior. My earlier APPROVE only checked access_test.go and missed the broader test impact — my miss.

#1961 (fix/registry-root-sibling-leak-1955, opened 2026-05-27) is the COMPLETE fix for #1955: identical core change PLUS the 4 affected test files updated correctly (e.g. cross_tenant_isolation_test now expects the hierarchy-layer denial with cannot communicate). Recommend: CLOSE #2110 in favor of #1961 (rebased onto current main), rather than duplicating #1961s test work here. Holding #2110 from merge.

Closing in favor of #1961. Both fix #1955 with the identical core access.go change, but #2110 only updates access_test.go and does NOT update the 4 other tests that assert the old root-sibling behavior (cross_tenant_isolation_test.go, handlers_additional_test.go, handlers_extended_test.go, delegation_executor_integration_test.go) — so CI / Platform (Go) is red here. #1961 (opened 2026-05-27) is the COMPLETE fix with those test updates done correctly. Consolidating on #1961 to avoid duplicate work. Thanks for the clean core diff — it matched #1961 exactly, which confirmed the fix.
