test/crew-sandbox-real.test.ts runs in the gate, or the gate says why it cannot #10715

test/crew-sandbox-real.test.ts is back in the gate: its entry is gone from EXCLUDED in scripts/gate.ts. The real sandbox could not be made in this sandbox, so the test has not passed anywhere yet. The forge's check on this push is the first real run, and that check decides whether the entry stays out.

Why it could not run on the check host before. It had three problems that #10695 already fixed in crew-sandbox-escape.test.ts, which is in the gate:

• It required rg on PATH, which the check host does not have. So instead of skipping, the file threw.
• It started srt with the check cell's HTTP_PROXY/NO_PROXY still set. srt routes through that proxy, and that proxy refuses loopback, so the request to the forge's host:port failed.
• It used fetch with { proxy } for the through-proxy requests. srt puts 127.0.0.1 in NO_PROXY, so a client can go direct instead of through the sandbox's proxy.

What changed:

• New test/helpers/srt.ts: holds withoutParentProxy and runtimeSettings, which hands srt the pinned @vscode/ripgrep binary. The escape test now imports them in place of its own copies; what it does is unchanged.
• test/crew-sandbox-real.test.ts:

- It requires the pinned rg and srt; if either is missing where a sandbox can be made, the test still fails rather than skipping. - It starts srt without the parent proxy. - Through-proxy requests are now raw requests to the proxy, in the same form the escape test uses. - When it skips, it names itself and the reason: skipped: test/crew-sandbox-real.test.ts: ….

Checks run here:

• bun scripts/gate.ts: passes.
• bun x tsc --noEmit: passes.
• bun test test/gate*.test.ts test/check-list.test.ts test/crew-sandbox-real.test.ts test/crew-sandbox-escape.test.ts: 51 pass, 40 skip, 0 fail. Both sandbox files skipped here, each by name, because user namespaces are refused in this sandbox.

Not done:

• scripts/gate.ts asks that a pull re-admitting a file carry ten green runs under load (bun scripts/flake-hunt.ts admit test/crew-sandbox-real.test.ts). I could not produce them, because the file only skips here. If the check comes back red, or a person wants those runs first, the fallback is to put the entry back with the cause as its reason.
• I could not keep the plan on the issue: the keep_plan tool was not available in this run.

To try it: on a host that can make a user-namespace sandbox, run bun test test/crew-sandbox-real.test.ts.

I couldn't get the ten admit runs, so test/crew-sandbox-real.test.ts stays out of the gate. Its exclusion in scripts/gate.ts now names the cause and points at #10709. The test is fixed so it can run on a host that can make a sandbox, but it has not passed anywhere yet.

Why it couldn't run on the check host. It had three problems that #10695 already fixed in crew-sandbox-escape.test.ts:

• It needed rg on PATH, which the check host doesn't have, so the file threw instead of running or skipping.
• It started srt with the cell's proxy settings still set. srt routes through that proxy, which refuses loopback, so the request to the forge's host:port failed.
• It sent its through-proxy requests with fetch. srt puts 127.0.0.1 in NO_PROXY, so fetch could skip the sandbox's proxy and connect directly.

What changed:

• New test/helpers/srt.ts: holds withoutParentProxy and runtimeSettings, which hands srt the pinned @vscode/ripgrep binary. The escape test now imports these instead of keeping its own copies, and behaves the same.
• test/crew-sandbox-real.test.ts: now uses the pinned rg, starts srt without the proxy settings, and sends raw requests to the proxy. If a sandbox can be made but srt or rg is missing, the test fails rather than skipping. When it skips, it prints skipped: test/crew-sandbox-real.test.ts: <reason>.
• Why it stays excluded: the gate's rule is ten green flake-hunt admit runs before a file is re-admitted, and I couldn't produce them. This sandbox refuses user namespaces, so the file only skips here. The reason says exactly that.
• Review fix: the @vscode/ripgrep import now sits with the other package imports, before the ../src imports.

I did not use the reason the review suggested ("the check host refuses user namespaces"). I don't know that it's true: the escape test, which needs the same kind of sandbox, is in the gate and was fixed to run on the check host in #10695.

Checks run here: bun scripts/gate.ts and bun x tsc --noEmit both pass. bun test test/gate*.test.ts test/check-list.test.ts test/crew-sandbox-real.test.ts gives 51 pass, 12 skip, 0 fail; the skips are the sandbox file, skipped by name.

To admit it: on a host that can make a user-namespace sandbox, run bun scripts/flake-hunt.ts admit test/crew-sandbox-real.test.ts. If all ten runs are green, delete the entry in a pull that includes those runs in its description.

Left #10709 open: 1 unticked item remain (Run test/crew-sandbox-real.test.ts on the check host's shape; if it passes, remove its entry from EXCLUDED in scripts/gate.ts.).
