🎯 What Was Fixed

1. Security Vulnerabilities (2 Critical)

Alert #29: Incomplete Sanitization (CWE-116)

• File: src/mcp/handlers/memory/memory-query.ts
• Fix: Global regex replace(/\*/g, '.*') prevents regex injection
• Severity: HIGH

Alert #25: Prototype Pollution (CWE-1321)

• File: src/cli/commands/config/set.ts
• Fix: 3-layer prototype guards prevent Object.prototype modification
• Severity: HIGH

2. Production Bugs (3 Critical)

jest.setup.ts - Global path.join() Mock

• Impact: Affected EVERY test in suite
• Fix: Removed jest.fn() wrapper, added sanitization
• Result: All tests now initialize correctly

RollbackManager - Falsy Value Handling

• Impact: maxAge: 0 ignored, used default 24 hours
• Fix: options.maxAge !== undefined ? options.maxAge : default
• Result: Explicit zero values now respected

PerformanceTesterAgent - Factory Registration (BLOCKING)

• Impact: Integration tests failed, users couldn't spawn qe-performance-tester
• Fix: Enabled agent instantiation with proper TypeScript types
• Result: All 18 agents now functional (was 17/18) ✅

3. Test Infrastructure (6 Improvements)

1. MemoryManager: Defensive database initialization
2. Agent: Logger dependency injection → 27/27 passing (was 21/27)
3. EventBus: Resolved logger mock conflicts
4. OODACoordination: Fixed ESM __dirname → 42/43 passing (98%)
5. FleetManager: Fixed @types import resolution
6. RollbackManager: Comprehensive test suite → 36/36 passing (100%)

4. Error Handling (20 Handlers)

Centralized BaseHandler.safeHandle() wrapper across:

• Test handlers (5)
• Analysis handlers (5)
• Quality handlers (5)
• Prediction handlers (5)

5. Test Cleanup (New Fix)

Added --forceExit to 8 test scripts:

• test:unit, test:agents, test:mcp, test:cli
• test:utils, test:streaming, test:agentdb

Result: Tests exit cleanly without manual intervention

Step 5: Release Verification Test (CRITICAL - DO BEFORE TAGGING)

# CRITICAL: Test in fresh project BEFORE creating tag
# Create clean test project
mkdir /tmp/aqe-test-v1.4.2 && cd /tmp/aqe-test-v1.4.2
npm init -y

# Install the release (from local build or after npm publish)
npm install /workspaces/agentic-qe-cf  # Local test
# OR after publishing: npm install agentic-qe@1.4.2

# Initialize AQE
npx aqe init

# Verify initialization (ALL MUST PASS)
ls -la .claude/agents/        # Should show all 18 QE agents
ls -la .claude/skills/        # Should show all 34 QE skills
ls -la .claude/commands/      # Should show all 8 AQE slash commands
cat .claude/CLAUDE.md         # Should contain fleet configuration
ls -la .agentic-qe/config/    # Should show configuration files
cat .agentic-qe/config/fleet.json  # Should be valid JSON
ls -la .agentic-qe/db/        # Should show memory.db and patterns.db

# Verify databases (we use better-sqlite3)
file .agentic-qe/db/memory.db      # Should show SQLite 3.x database
file .agentic-qe/db/patterns.db    # Should show SQLite 3.x database
# Verify tables using Node.js (better-sqlite3)
node -e "const db = require('better-sqlite3')('.agentic-qe/db/memory.db'); console.log('Memory DB Tables:', db.prepare('SELECT name FROM sqlite_master WHERE type=\"table\"').all()); db.close();"
node -e "const db = require('better-sqlite3')('.agentic-qe/db/patterns.db'); console.log('Patterns DB Tables:', db.prepare('SELECT name FROM sqlite_master WHERE type=\"table\"').all()); db.close();"

# Test agent functionality (MUST WORK)
npx aqe agent spawn qe-test-generator --task "Generate unit test for simple function"
# Agent should spawn, execute, and return results

# Count verification (MUST MATCH CLAIMS)
find .claude/agents -name "*.md" | wc -l    # Should show 18
find .claude/skills -name "*.md" | wc -l    # Should show 34
find .claude/commands -name "*.md" | wc -l  # Should show 8

# Verify claimed features
aqe routing status    # Multi-Model Router
aqe learn status      # Learning System
aqe patterns list     # Pattern Bank

# If ALL checks pass, proceed to tagging
# If ANY check fails, DO NOT tag - fix issues first

Step 6: After PR Merged to Main (AND Verification Passes)

# Switch to main and pull
git checkout main
git pull origin main

# Create and push tag (ONLY AFTER PR MERGED AND VERIFICATION PASSES)
git tag -a v1.4.2 -m "Release v1.4.2 - Security & Stability Release"
git push origin v1.4.2

# Publish to npm (using gh CLI)
gh release create v1.4.2 \
  --title "v1.4.2 - Security & Stability Release" \
  --notes "See CHANGELOG.md for details"
