sandbox-store: refuse post-action stamps over another intent's lifecycle - #1412
A post-action stamp no longer overwrites the lifecycle another intent wrote while the action's substrate call was in flight, except for the known limits below. On main, a start that finished while a delete held the row deleting stamped it started/on_node under the delete's teardown. Each stamp is an ActionStamp (crates/l30_storage/sandbox/store/src/action_stamp.rs) whose admits is one exhaustive match; the bound TEXT[] is derived from SandboxLifecycle::all(). All stamps and the pooled post-wake update refuse deleting, stopping, suspending, terminal and unknown values (module docs name each owner).
stopped: refused by resume, pause, suspend and the pooled post-wake update; start and stop write over it.
suspended: written over only by a suspend's own stamp and every Direct start (StartSubstrate::LeavesSuspended).
restoring: refused by resume, pause, suspend and the pooled post-wake update on both substrates. None of them leaves a restoring of its own: a Kubernetes runtime client that finds a restore in flight dials only once the row reads started. So a restoring they find is a restore lease's, a user restore's or an evacuation claim's. Start and stop still write over it.
A start makes at most one post-result write. A refused stamp matches zero rows and logs at info, and the action succeeds. A refused pooled post-wake update keeps its existing CAS-miss error instead, so that create fails with a 500.
action_stamp::tests sweep stopped, suspended, restoring per stamp; only start and stop write over restoring.
Direct completed_actions_keep_… lands the five cross-intent values and restoring: Resume/Pause/Suspend keep all; Start writes over suspended, stopped, restoring; Stop/Kill over stopped, restoring. New: a_start_keeps_a_rewrite_that_landed_after_its_stamp.
Kubernetes twin: start_after_wake_ack keeps the four cross-intent values; resume/pause keep stopped. A pause case lands restoring before the action and expects the 503 its runtime client returns before dialing; it pins that existing refusal, which predates this change.
wake_signal_classifies_post_wake_flip_by_recency_not_lease finalizes its user restore with the wake's completion CAS instead of the pooled post-wake update, which now refuses restoring; its assertions are unchanged.
Validation
On Linux. All but the last bullet ran on the revision just before the final edits, which re-arm one lock-contention test and adjust doc comments only:
Before the fix, at 91188e4's non-test code: each_stamp_writes_its_own_states_and_refuses_another_intents failed (a Kubernetes resume stamp wrote started over restoring) and post_action_stamps_write_only_over_an_in_flight_lifecycle failed (the post-wake update wrote over restoring). Both pass here.

The 2 NoCoW template-mgr tests need a btrfs fixture and passed under ci/scripts/with-nocow-test-filesystem.sh.
cargo fmt --check, scripts/check-rust-error-policy.sh, workspace clippy -D warnings and cargo arch (0 findings) are clean. rustdoc resolves every new intra-doc link.
Kind: fresh up.sh cluster. smoke-kind-typed.sh all with CI's admin token and cold receipts: ECW 91 passed, native 42 passed, 0 failed, no reruns, including ecw.warm_pool_environment. Six console scenarios were skipped because the box has no browser.
The re-armed a_contended_post_wake_update_is_not_retryable seeds paused and checks the lock-contention error text. It fails with the contention mapped as retryable, and with the old suspended seed. nextest for sandbox-store and api: 2563 passed, 1 skipped.
CI's Kind Direct smoke passed on that revision. Not validated: the race end to end (too narrow to reproduce).
Severity and risk
Severity: medium. A stamp that overwrote another intent's lifecycle left the row describing the wrong sandbox state, and made that owner's guarded completion miss.
Risk: a refused stamp leaves the row to its owner. Known limits, tracked separately: a delete or drain evacuation that fails after a refused stamp puts back the lifecycle it read before the action; a start's stamp writes started over a stop that completed mid-start. A stop's stamp, and a start's that claimed no restore (every Direct start, and a Kubernetes start of a row that was neither suspended nor restoring), can still write over another owner's restoring and make that owner's completion miss. Rollback: revert.
Rollout
No schema change. Old replicas keep the old guard, so the race stays possible until every API and cluster-controller replica runs this version.

Why: Lifecycle writes now refuse competing states, but a failed delete or drain can still restore stale state after a refusal. Resolve or explicitly accept that risk before merging.

No actionable comments were generated in the recent review.
Walkthrough
Lifecycle stamps now use typed action variants and normalized, action-specific lifecycle allowlists. Start stamps use substrate capabilities to select permitted source states. API lifecycle completion and pooled post-wake updates use guarded writes. Added tests cover cross-intent lifecycle states, start behavior, and lifecycle changes during action completion.
Possibly related issues
perplexityai/SPACE#875 concerns suspend ownership during cancellation and wake/delete arbitration. This PR adds refusals for lifecycle states owned by other intents, but does not implement the tracked suspend work or work-scaled capture deadlines.
perplexityai/SPACE#876 concerns erase safety during delete and cluster-deleted eviction of retained suspended sandboxes. This PR fences lifecycle stamps against delete and evacuation claims, but does not add typed quarantine evidence or an operator release path.
Possibly related PRs
perplexityai/SPACE#1398 uses the same disk-artifact marker that start stamps clear when they succeed. Refused start stamps retain that marker, connecting the two changes through the lifecycle path.
Merge Risk: High · up to c1c59
Lifecycle writes now refuse competing states, but a failed delete or drain can still restore stale state after a refusal. Resolve or explicitly accept that risk before merging.
Security architecture risk: Moderate · up to c1c59
The guarded writes improve isolation between competing sandbox actions. However, a successful action whose update is refused can be lost when a competing delete later fails and restores stale state, leaving a running sandbox described as stopped. No expanded authentication or tenant privileges were established.
Retained concerns
Medium · reliability · inferred: A refused successful start has no recorded result for failed-delete compensation to reconcile. If delete captures stopped, start finishes while the row is deleting, and teardown fails without stopping the guest, the start stamp is refused but start still succeeds; compensation restores stopped over the running guest. This newly reachable recovery outcome can leave lifecycle-based control and containment decisions operating on stale state, particularly on Direct where ordinary started publication does not repair stopped.
Security review details
Security Blast Radius
inferred — The changed policy is shared across sandbox completion paths, but each guarded write targets one SandboxId. The supported failure scenario concerns competing operations on the same sandbox; the inspected change does not establish cross-tenant authority expansion.
Security Findings and Attack Paths
inferred — The material failure path requires an in-flight start, a competing delete intent, and failed teardown followed by compensation. It can separate reported lifecycle from actual execution, weakening lifecycle-based containment assumptions. No credential theft, authorization bypass, or cross-tenant exploitation was verified.
Trust Boundaries and Controls
observed — The storage boundary accepts a typed action rather than caller-supplied lifecycle text. Parameterized updates atomically check normalized stored lifecycle and apply the result, avoiding a separate read-then-write admission race.
Resilience and Maintainability Implications
observed — Pooled completion deliberately avoids advertising a retryable contention response after execution has been prepared. Ordinary create allocates a fresh identity, while separate creation methods support pinned identities. These differences bound the duplicate-execution concern and require preserving caller identity when reasoning about recovery.
Hardening Proposals
proposed — Preserve completion evidence for refused successful actions, or reconcile actual execution before restoring a failed owner's prior lifecycle. Validate the stopped-to-deleting, successful-start, failed-delete sequence without weakening the new ownership fence.

Explanation
The PR fixes application behavior under crates/. Its Validation section names each_stamp_writes_its_own_states_and_refuses_another_intents and post_action_stamps_write_only_over_an_in_flight_lifecycle, states that both failed before the fix, and states that both pass on this revision.

Full details: Weakened Safeguards Are Justified
Explanation
No weakened safeguard was introduced. The diff changes the lifecycle matrix from known defects to explicit refusal expectations and sets KNOWN_DEFECTS from 15 to 0 because the guarded writes now enforce those cases.

Cover terminal and unknown lifecycles for every stamp.
CROSS_INTENT is the only refused set the store tests feed to a stamp. It covers four of the values a stamp refuses. Suspend and Start(StartSubstrate::LeavesSuspended) use SUSPENDED_ACTION_IN_FLIGHT, a separate hand-written list. The store tests never pass failed, quarantined, deleted, cleanup_required, or an unknown value to these two stamps. A change that adds failed to SUSPENDED_ACTION_IN_FLIGHT passes both store tests. The API matrix drives Pause and Start(ClaimsRestoring) only, so it does not catch that change. Resume and Stop share ACTION_IN_FLIGHT with Pause, so the matrix covers them only through that constant.
Widen the refused set. expected_cases filters out each stamp's own states, so the wider set applies to all six stamps.

crates/l30_storage/sandbox/store/src/action_stamp.rs:117: pause, and resume and suspend on Direct, still stamp over another intent's restoring.
The module docs justify restoring by the Kubernetes paths whose runtime client joins or drives a restore. Pause uses the non-recovering reachable_runtime_client on both substrates, and on Direct none of resume, pause or suspend claims restoring. So when one of those stamps finds restoring, it belongs to a Direct restore lease (direct.rs:66) or an evacuation restore claim (restore_lease.rs:79) that began mid-flight. Writing paused or started over it takes the row out of restoring. On Direct that clears the lease token through the sandboxes_clear_restore_lease trigger (direct.rs:149-151), so the owner's complete_restore_lease matches nothing (direct.rs:154). On an evacuation, finalize_evacuation_restore guards on restoring and misses (drain.rs:594). The window is narrow: a suspend has to finish and a restore has to be claimed within one node call. But it's the same cross-intent overwrite this PR removes for stopped, by the same argument the second commit makes.
Consider dropping restoring from the pause set, and from the resume and suspend sets on Direct, or say in the module docs why it's kept.

crates/l40_api/api/src/controllers/sandbox/responses.rs:831: POOLED_POST_WAKE_FROM reuses the start set, so it admits stopped. The doc above it says the pooled claim inserts the row paused, so a stopped this update finds isn't one the wake began from. That's the reasoning that moved resume and pause to RESUME_PAUSE_IN_FLIGHT, and the matrix pins the post-wake stopped cell as A. Either use the resume/pause set here or say why stopped stays. I didn't trace which writer could land stopped during a pooled wake.
action_stamp.rs:96: start's sets keep stopped, so a stop or kill that completes during a start's node call is still overwritten with started/on_node. The PR accepts this because the stamp can't tell its own starting stopped from a newer one. A fence on the row version read at entry would close it. Worth a line under the PR's follow-ups, next to the compensation fence.
action_stamp.rs:96-161: the four sets are hand-kept lists that differ by one or two entries. A new SandboxLifecycle variant gets refused by every stamp, and nothing forces a decision about it. An exhaustive match per stamp (fn admits(self, SandboxLifecycle) -> bool) would give the same sets in one place and fail to compile when a variant is added.
responses.rs:340: start_substrate reads "a start of a suspended row claims restoring" off caller_completes_claimed_restore, a capability documented as a fact about restore-shaped wakes. PublishedSuspendFence::for_capabilities maps the same capability the same way. substrate/AGENTS.md asks for a SubstrateCapabilities field for each static substrate fact, and a dedicated field would keep the two from drifting.
crates/l40_api/api/src/controllers/substrate/direct.rs: Direct's behavior changes: stamps refuse deleting, stopping, suspending, and stopped for resume, pause and suspend, and every start writes over suspended. substrate/AGENTS.md asks for the direct.rs module doc to follow such changes, and this PR doesn't touch it.
Verified against 301cb8f0aa2f32480fb34e106640cfe92383cd4e. I read the code and traced the paths. I didn't run the test suites, and I didn't execute the races above.
Checked and not raised: a stop or kill of a row that's already suspended. On Kubernetes it's refused with 503 before any node call. On Direct the node rejects a kill, and a stop is a no-op that leaves the VM suspended, so a refused stamp keeps the row accurate. I also confirmed that only start, resume, pause, stop, kill and suspend return a status from the dispatcher. So with post_action_stamp returning None for start, no action loses a stamp it had before.

A lifecycle action's post-action stamp (`stamp_action_lifecycle`,
`stamp_started_after_start`) and the pooled post-wake update refused only
`failed`, `quarantined`, `deleted` and `cleanup_required`. A stamp that
landed after a concurrent delete, stop, suspend or restore claim had begun
overwrote that intent's lifecycle: a start that completed while a delete
held the row `deleting` left it `started`/`on_node` under the delete's
teardown.
Each stamp is now a typed `ActionStamp` whose `admits` decides every
lifecycle in one exhaustive match; the bound `TEXT[]` is derived from
`SandboxLifecycle::all()`. Every stamp and the pooled post-wake update
refuse `deleting`, `stopping`, `suspending`, terminal and unknown values.
Resume, pause, suspend and the pooled post-wake update also refuse
`stopped`, since none begins from a stop, and `restoring`, since none
leaves a `restoring` of its own: a Kubernetes runtime client dials only
once a joined restore has committed `started`. Only a suspend's own stamp
and a Direct start write over `suspended`; a Kubernetes start of a
`suspended` row claims `restoring` first. A start makes at most one
post-result write.
A refused stamp matches zero rows and is logged at info; the action still
succeeds. A refused pooled post-wake update keeps its CAS-miss error, so
that create fails with a 500. `SubstrateCapabilities` gains
`start_of_suspended_claims_restoring`, which picks the start's stamp.
Known limits: a delete or drain evacuation that fails after a refused
stamp puts back the lifecycle it read before the action; a start's stamp
writes `started` over a stop that completed mid-start; and a stop, or a
start that claimed no restore, can still write over another owner's
`restoring`.
