MCP: ui.inspect leaves out paths outside the read roots - #6608
Under --automation-read-root, the control channel's ui.inspect (MCP ui_inspect) returned local paths outside the read roots: the documents still being opened, the recent files, a library panel's file and the folder preferences. The person's own work puts these paths in the UI state, so a confined client could read them even though it may not read the files. file.recentFiles and ui.menu.list already leave out recent files and listed scripts outside the roots (#6580, #6525). This change applies the same file_access::check_read test to ui.inspect. The rule is VectorCraft's own.
Changes in crates/ui-egui/src/control.rs, all on the reply's copy; the app's state is not changed:
opening and ui.recent_files keep only the readable paths, in their order.
A library panel in ui.library_panels keeps its row without its path. A library loaded from a file outside the roots has the id loaded/<path>. The reply shows it as loaded/<file name> wherever ui.inspect and ui.docking name it, also when its panel is closed: its id and panel id, ui.color_guide_limit, the docking layout, closed, icon and collapsed panel lists, and workspace layouts. Typed text, such as a command palette query, is not read as an id. Two hidden libraries with the same file name take loaded/<file name>, loaded/<file name> (2) and so on, in the order of their full ids, and a library has the same id in both replies.
The folder preferences in ui.engine_prefs and in an open Preferences dialog's ui.dialog.fields (fontsFolder, pluginsFolder, scratchPrimary, scratchSecondary, recoveryFolder, templatesFolder) are left out when the client may not read them. An empty folder and the scratch disk choices Startup and None stay.
Without automation roots the replies are unchanged. With read roots, these fields now omit entries they used to list.
docs/mcp.md and docs/control-protocol.md describe the rule, and docs/target-app-parity.md has one line for it.
How it was tested
New tests in crates/ui-egui/src/tests/automation.rs, each failing without the change:
ui_inspect_leaves_out_paths_outside_the_read_root: with three documents opening (inside, outside, inside the read root), three recent files, two library panels (one loaded from outside), folder preferences and an open Preferences dialog, the person's ui.inspect lists everything; the client's lists only the paths inside the root, in order, shows the outside library as loaded/b.svg in ui.inspect and ui.docking, and the reply holds no text of the outside folder. The app's recent files and pending opens are unchanged, and under a write root alone opening and ui.recent_files are empty. With the opening filter, the recent-files filter, the library id rewrite or the Preferences dialog filter removed in turn, it fails at the matching assertion.
ui_inspect_hides_a_closed_librarys_path_outside_the_read_root: a library used only as the Color Guide's limit and in a closed panel's place shows as loaded/<file name>.
ui_inspect_keeps_two_hidden_libraries_with_one_file_name_apart: two hidden libraries named b.svg show as loaded/b.svg and loaded/b.svg (2).
ui_inspect_and_ui_docking_give_a_hidden_library_the_same_id: with one of those libraries only in the Color Guide's limit, both replies give each library the same id.
ui_inspect_shows_full_library_ids_without_a_read_root: without read roots the full ids stay.
ui_inspect_keeps_text_that_only_looks_like_a_library_id: a script log line and a command palette query that contain loaded/ text are left as typed, and do not change a hidden library's id.

Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Inspection responses now omit paths outside the permitted read area, including paths in opening documents, recent files, library panels, preferences, and related interface state.
Libraries loaded from outside that area appear under loaded/ names; duplicate filenames receive numbered suffixes. These changes do not alter the app’s saved interface state.
Documentation
Clarified which document paths inspection reports and how restricted library paths are displayed.
Under --automation-read-root, ui.inspect returned the paths of documents
still opening, the recent files, library panels' files and the folder
preferences even when they lay outside the read roots. The reply now
leaves them out, checked with file_access::check_read as ui.menu.list
checks recent files and listed scripts:
- opening and ui.recent_files keep only the readable paths, in order.
- A library panel keeps its row without its path; a library loaded from
outside the roots shows as loaded/<file name> in its id and panel id,
in ui.inspect and ui.docking.
- The folder preferences in ui.engine_prefs and in an open Preferences
dialog are left out; an empty folder and the scratch disk choices
Startup and None stay.
The app's own state is not changed. Without roots the replies are as
before.
Docs: docs/mcp.md, docs/control-protocol.md, docs/target-app-parity.md.
Under --automation-read-root, ui.inspect and ui.docking hid a library's
path only when its panel was in ui.library_panels. A library used as the
Color Guide's limit, or named by a closed panel's place in
ui.docking_hidden, a workspace layout or the docking layout, still showed
its full loaded/<path> id.
The ids to hide now come from every place the UI state refers to a
library: the library panels, the Color Guide's limit, and the panel ids in
the docking layout, closed panels, icon and collapsed lists and workspace
layouts. Typed text such as a command palette query is not read as an id.
Two hidden libraries with the same file name no longer share one id, which
dropped one of them from an object keyed by panel id. They show as
loaded/<file name>, loaded/<file name> (2) and so on, in the order of
their full ids, and a library has the same id in ui.inspect and
ui.docking.
Docs: docs/mcp.md.
ui.inspect filters paths outside read roots and replaces exposed IDs for hidden libraries. ui.docking applies matching library-ID substitutions. The control-protocol and MCP documentation describe these responses. The target-app parity guide also records Shift-move snapping behavior.
ui.inspect filters unreadable paths from its response, including pending opens, recent files, library panels, and folder preferences. Tests check that filtering does not change UI state or pending opens. The protocol documentation describes the opening field.
Inspection and docking responses substitute filename-based IDs for unreadable libraries. Numbered suffixes distinguish duplicate filenames. Tests cover consistent substitutions, text that resembles library IDs, and behavior without a read root. MCP documentation describes the response behavior.

Record Shift-move snapping behavior docs/target-app-parity.md
The parity guide documents snapping targets during Shift-constrained moves and the proximity condition for nearly parallel guides.
storytold/vectorcraft issue 3603: This PR enforces read-root filtering for paths exposed through ui.inspect, which matches the issue’s stated read-confinement objective.

Merge Risk: Low · up to 774f7
With a read root set, ui.inspect may rewrite free text that contains a hidden library ID. The filename aliases it returns for hidden libraries may not work in panel commands. Both problems are narrow and low impact, and they can be fixed after merge.

- Around line 410-411: Update the replacement logic around `s.contains` so
hidden library IDs are substituted only in recognized identifier fields and only
when the value is an exact bare or panel ID; do not alter matching text in query
or script-log fields or replace an ID embedded in a longer readable ID. Extend
the lookalike test with text containing the actual hidden ID and verify that
text remains unchanged.
- Around line 311-312: Update the panel-command handling near
unreadable_library_ids and hide_library_ids to resolve returned aliases to their
original panel IDs before calling window.panel. Keep restricted library paths
out of replies and preserve the existing handling of ordinary panel IDs.

…ten only as whole ids
Follows #6608. ui.inspect shows a library loaded from outside the read
roots as loaded/<file name>. A request may now name the library or its
panel by that id in a panel, library or panels param, in a docking
destination (anchor, before, onto, above, below) and in
window.panel.layout's action: ui.set {panel} reopens the closed panel
instead of floating a new one. The reply to such a request, an error
included, shows the shown id.
ui.inspect rewrites only whole ids, and only in the fields that hold
library and panel ids, so a readable library's id that begins with a
hidden one keeps its path, and status text, the command palette query
and a script's report keep their text. A hidden library does not take
the id of a library loaded without a path.
ui.inspect also leaves out of recorded action steps the path and folder
params, params named like destinationFolder and the entries of a paths
list that lie outside the read roots, also inside a batch step's
commands. It hides a library id holding a path written with either
separator, and checks a folder preference against the roots as written,
without trimming spaces.
