Summary

Fixes a Go panic regression introduced by PR #956 (my own file). Six resolveInsideRoot tests used t.Errorf in the nil-error branch then continued to err.Error() — if err was unexpectedly nil, err.Error() would panic with nil pointer dereference.

Fix: Replace t.Errorf / t.Error with t.Fatalf / t.Fatal in the nil-error branch so execution stops before the err.Error() call.

Affected tests:

• TestResolveInsideRoot_EmptyUserPath
• TestResolveInsideRoot_AbsolutePathRejected
• TestResolveInsideRoot_DotDotTraversal
• TestResolveInsideRoot_DotDotWithIntermediate
• TestResolveInsideRoot_NestedDotDotEscapes
• TestResolveInsideRoot_DotdotAtStart

Motivation

Issue #965 (tier:high REGRESSION): TestResolveInsideRoot_DotDotWithIntermediate panics with nil pointer dereference on err.Error().

Test plan

go test -race ./workspace-server/internal/handlers/ -run TestResolveInsideRoot -v

Go not available in container; CI runs the suite.

SOP Checklist

• Changes are additive only (semantics unchanged, only test failure behavior)
• Pure unit tests (no DB, no network)
• No changes to production code

## Summary Fixes a Go panic regression introduced by PR #956 (my own file). Six `resolveInsideRoot` tests used `t.Errorf` in the nil-error branch then continued to `err.Error()` — if `err` was unexpectedly nil, `err.Error()` would panic with nil pointer dereference. **Fix:** Replace `t.Errorf` / `t.Error` with `t.Fatalf` / `t.Fatal` in the nil-error branch so execution stops before the `err.Error()` call. **Affected tests:** - `TestResolveInsideRoot_EmptyUserPath` - `TestResolveInsideRoot_AbsolutePathRejected` - `TestResolveInsideRoot_DotDotTraversal` - `TestResolveInsideRoot_DotDotWithIntermediate` - `TestResolveInsideRoot_NestedDotDotEscapes` - `TestResolveInsideRoot_DotdotAtStart` ## Motivation Issue #965 (tier:high REGRESSION): `TestResolveInsideRoot_DotDotWithIntermediate` panics with nil pointer dereference on `err.Error()`. ## Test plan ```bash go test -race ./workspace-server/internal/handlers/ -run TestResolveInsideRoot -v ``` Go not available in container; CI runs the suite. ## SOP Checklist - [x] Changes are additive only (semantics unchanged, only test failure behavior) - [x] Pure unit tests (no DB, no network) - [x] No changes to production code 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code)

fix(handlers/org_helpers_test): use t.Fatal instead of t.Error in error-path tests ... 1088f2032e

Six resolveInsideRoot tests called t.Errorf then continued to err.Error()
on a potentially-nil error — if err was unexpectedly nil, the subsequent
err.Error() call would panic with nil pointer dereference.

Fix: use t.Fatalf/t.Fatal in the nil-error branch so execution stops
before the err.Error() call. Affects:
- TestResolveInsideRoot_EmptyUserPath
- TestResolveInsideRoot_AbsolutePathRejected
- TestResolveInsideRoot_DotDotTraversal
- TestResolveInsideRoot_DotDotWithIntermediate
- TestResolveInsideRoot_NestedDotDotEscapes
- TestResolveInsideRoot_DotdotAtStart

Fixes regression reported in issue #965.

SRE Review: APPROVE

Fixes nil-pointer panic regression in PR #956. Six TestResolveInsideRoot cases used t.Errorf in the err==nil branch, then called err.Error() — would panic if err was unexpectedly nil. Replacing with t.Fatalf stops execution immediately, preventing the panic.

All 6 instances are in the nil-error guard, so t.Fatalf is the correct choice.

Ready to merge.
