feat(github): route pull request operations across matching accounts

[maria-rcks]

GitHub PR details, merged status, checks, and review actions can use another connected environment when the original environment is slow or cannot reach GitHub. Disabled environments are excluded. Routing is off by default: this client must explicitly trust both environments for reads or for reads and actions, and both must verify the same GitHub account and host.

Alternate discovery sends only the host. Each routed operation pins its verified credential through provider calls and background refreshes, partitions caches by credential, and never retries an ambiguous mutation. Revocation applies across browser windows; changed or unavailable SSH destinations fail closed. Web, desktop, and both mobile environment settings expose the same permissions.

Current head: 359 focused tests passed on Blacksmith (267 server, 88 client, 4 web), plus server/client/web/mobile/desktop typechecks and scoped lint. Permission enable/revoke was exercised in the merged web settings. A fresh real-client PR detail request reached the GitHub provider but was rate-limited; native iOS/Android and packaged Windows/macOS runtime remain unverified.

Prior validation at 28a32c30d9 used two actual servers for fallback, host-only discovery, revocation, account mismatch, and mutation non-replay. Seven disposable PRs merged successfully, including through the web client, and all benchmark workflows passed. The repository was deleted afterward.

Three real provider merges per version, same machine and workload, baseline 25da986037 versus 28a32c30d9. Candidate total time includes credential verification; the first candidate also makes a cold /user request.

median metric	baseline	candidate	change
permission check	1,066 ms	381 ms	-64%
permission check + merge	3,561 ms	3,092 ms	-13%
gh invocations per merge	4	3	-25%

Additional actual-RPC measurements compare the pre-audit router d2ba61e054 with 28a32c30d9 against the same candidate servers: warm routed reads 7 → 6 ms (5 samples), invalidated reads 1,964 → 1,900 ms (3 samples), and recovery past a stalled first alternate's identity probe >8,000 → 2,388 ms (one fault case). Transport faults were injected around real RPC clients, not by blocking GitHub's network. Millisecond-scale differences and live GitHub latency are noisy; when both source data and source identity stall, routing cannot safely discover an alternate account.

Two independent gpt-6-astra reviewers approve 12c88ba57c, with no blocking findings. CI passes. Macroscope requires human review under its policy for credential-sensitive changes; its correctness check passes.

Implemented with gpt-6 using Codex.

Approvability

Verdict: Not approved

Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This PR adds a substantial cross-environment GitHub routing workflow spanning client, server, persistence, RPC, caching, and credential authorization paths. Its broad runtime impact and sensitive credential handling require human review.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds host-aware GitHub identity verification and a routing RPC. Pull request RPCs verify account ownership before execution. Client pull request reads and writes route across connected environments with identity checks, read hedging, and invalidation propagation.

Changes

Pull request routing

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Routing contracts and runtime execution packages/contracts/src/pullRequest.ts, packages/contracts/src/rpc.ts, packages/client-runtime/src/state/runtime.ts	Adds routing fields, routing result schemas, the pullRequestsRouting RPC, and custom RPC execution hooks.
GitHub identity and provider support apps/server/src/pullRequest/*, apps/server/src/sourceControl/GitHubCli.ts	Adds host-specific identity lookup with verified credential caching. Extends provider and service APIs with routing identity, host, stale-read, and branch-permission inputs.
Server routing RPC and viewer guards apps/server/src/ws.ts, apps/server/src/auth/RpcAuthorization.ts	Adds the routing RPC and checks expected GitHub account and host before pull request operations.
Cross-environment request routing packages/client-runtime/src/state/pullRequestRouting.ts	Routes reads and writes across environments, verifies candidate identities, hedges reads, and propagates invalidations.
Client integration and routing validation packages/client-runtime/src/state/pullRequests.ts, packages/client-runtime/src/state/pullRequests.test.ts, docs/user/source-control.md	Uses routing for pull request queries and commands. Tests routing, fallback, hedging, invalidation, and ambiguous write failures. Documents the behavior.

key construction to include the validated expectedAccountId used by the
WebSocket guard, preventing reuse across GitHub account switches; apply the same
partitioning to retained and persisted caches and add an end-to-end test

the wrapped project API rather than obtaining the raw GitHub provider from
registry. Preserve the existing optional-property behavior when
getRoutingIdentity is unavailable.
