Add configurable file type restrictions to cache-memory and repo-memory with validation failure reporting #15195

Copilot · 2026-02-12T15:45:36Z

Complete: Configurable File Type Restrictions with Code Review Fixes ✅

All Review Comments Addressed

Copilot PR Reviewer Feedback (bot comments 2801299441-2801299505):

✅ Normalize allowed extensions: Extensions now converted to lowercase and trimmed
✅ JSON.parse error handling: Added try-catch with clear error messages
✅ Template literal escaping: Fixed $${ to ${ in error messages
✅ Multi-cache extensions: Build union of all extensions when caches differ
✅ Hardcoded repo-memory extensions: Now uses configured extensions from memory config

@pelikhan Request:
6. ✅ Recompile: All 147 workflows recompiled successfully

Changes Summary

JavaScript Validation (validate_memory_files.cjs):

Normalizes extensions to lowercase: .map(ext => ext.trim().toLowerCase())
Handles mixed-case config like [".MD", ".Json"] correctly

Error Handling (push_repo_memory.cjs):

Wrapped JSON.parse(ALLOWED_EXTENSIONS) in try-catch
Returns clear error: "Failed to parse ALLOWED_EXTENSIONS... Expected JSON array format."
Falls back to defaults on parse error

Template Fix (cache.go):

Fixed double-dollar escape: Found $${result...} → Found ${result...}
Error messages now show actual count instead of literal $3

Multi-Config Support:

cache.go: Builds union of extensions when caches have different allowed lists
repo_memory_prompt.go: Both single and multi-memory prompts use configured extensions
Sorts union for consistent output

Testing

✅ All 175 JavaScript test files passing (3852 tests)
✅ All Go tests passing
✅ 147 workflows recompiled
✅ Format and lint passing

The list of allowed file extensions should be configurable through allowed-extensions: [".txt", ".csv", ".json"] @copilot

Implemented in commit 50c701e. The allowed-extensions field is now configurable for both cache-memory and repo-memory:

tools:
  cache-memory:
    allowed-extensions: [".txt", ".csv", ".json"]
    
  repo-memory:
    allowed-extensions: [".md", ".json", ".toml"]

When not specified, defaults to [".json", ".jsonl", ".txt", ".md", ".csv"]. The configured extensions are:

Shown in agent prompts dynamically
Validated before upload (cache-memory) and before push (repo-memory)
Passed to JavaScript validation via JSON array
