5fa4defcbc feat(artifacts): inspect and extract Godot PCK with retained facts (#3634)
* feat(artifacts): read Godot PCK packs

Add a Godot Engine PCK artifact reader for standalone packs and packs
embedded behind an executable trailer (formats 2 and 3). Members are
uncompressed byte ranges verified against their declared MD5 on read.

Encrypted directories, sparse bundles, patch removal entries, unknown
flags and format 1 fail closed as unavailable; encrypted members are
reported without being read. inspect-artifact and extract-artifact
recognize standalone packs by their GDPC magic.

* fix(artifacts): bound Godot PCK metadata and own member streams

Cap member paths at 4096 bytes and the retained directory at 64 MiB
before allocation. Read members with positional chunk reads through
pipeline so cancellation is typed, abandoned consumers release their
source, and the shared descriptor stays reader-owned. Retain the root
descriptor for godot-pck inventory, as for ZIP and universal Mach-O.

* feat(artifacts): complete Godot PCK facts, integrity and selected views

* fix(artifacts): preserve atomic-root inventory Evidence

* fix(artifacts): bound aggregate PCK member expansion

# Godot PCK archives
`inspect-artifact` and `extract-artifact` read ordinary Godot PCK formats 2, 3
and 4 without running the game or requiring Godot. Official Godot 4.4.1, 4.6.1
and 4.7.1 produced these respective formats in verification; other engine
releases have not been verified. Format 1 is unsupported.
Inspection retains the original header and directory facts, including engine
version, flags, declared file count, source paths, offsets and declared MD5.
Observed plaintext bytes receive content-addressed SHA-256 identities. MD5 is a
container integrity claim, separate from the observed SHA-256. A mismatch fails
by default; `--integrity-policy record-and-continue` retains the observed bytes
and an explicit untrusted contradiction. An all-zero MD5 is an unknown claim,
not a verified digest.
## CLI
Start with a compact summary and keep the complete Evidence bundle:
```sh
rea inspect-artifact /artifacts/game.pck --detail summary \
--evidence_output /evidence/game.json --json
rea extract-artifact /artifacts/game.pck --json
```
Summary delivery requires `--evidence_output` and never overwrites that file.
The response contains `summary` Evidence and an `evidence_bundle` receipt.
Without `--detail summary`, inspection keeps its complete inline delivery.
Extraction creates a new temporary directory and returns its path. It rejects
unsafe paths and verifies container identity before creating output.
The same CLI commands locate a PCK at the beginning of a file or through its
12-byte EOF trailer in an executable carrier. They do not scan arbitrary
payloads or discover packs behind additional trailing signatures. The root
content SHA-256 covers the whole carrier; its content classification remains
native, while the inventory records the PCK role and exact pack bounds.
Ordinary native `open_binary` detection remains unchanged.
## MCP and selected facts
For a standalone pack, call `open_binary` with its absolute path, then
`inspect_artifact` with `{"detail":"summary"}`. The complete inspection and its
nested inventory stay in the session. Use the summary's
`normalized_result.parent_evidence_id` as the source of subsequent views:
```json
{
"name": "inspect_analysis_view",
"arguments": {
"source": {
"kind": "retained-evidence",
"evidence_id": "<parent_evidence_id>"
},
"view": {
"kind": "inventory",
"collection": "occurrences",
"logical_paths": ["scripts/main.gd", "project.binary"],
"fields": [
"logical_path",
"declared_integrity",
"hash_status",
"format_metadata"
],
"offset": 0,
"limit": 32
}
}
}
```
Occurrences retain `occurrence_id`, `artifact_id` and `parent_occurrence_id`
even when `fields` is empty. Batch occurrence IDs with `occurrence_ids`, or
join returned content IDs to `collection: "nodes"`, `artifact_ids: [...]` and
`fields: ["sha256", "size"]`. Filters intersect; an omitted filter selects all
available rows and an empty array selects none. Pagination follows the filtered
canonical order. Multiple occurrences may share one content ID.
Views reuse authenticated immutable inventory facts and lazy lookup indexes;
they do not reopen the source. These are historical observations, including
after the source changes or disappears. Close the target with `close_binary`
when finished. To read an exported bundle through the CLI, select its complete
inspection record as `source: {kind: "inline", evidence: ...}` in a JSON request
file for `rea inspect-analysis-view request.json --json`.
## Coverage and limits
PCK summaries expose root format metadata, available graph counts,
`available_hash_status_counts`, and `source_coverage`. Inventory pages preserve
producer coverage alongside page coverage. `source_complete` means all declared
retained graph rows are available; it does not establish that an encrypted or
otherwise unknown directory was examined. Missing matches in unknown coverage
are not evidence of absence.
Encrypted directories retain their header and declared file count with unknown
entry coverage. Individually encrypted members retain directory metadata with
unknown content identity; REA does not decrypt them. Sparse bundles likewise
retain header facts with unknown member coverage. Extraction refuses an
unreadable directory or encrypted member. This capability does not recover
keys, decode Godot resources, decompile GDScript bytecode, analyze signals,
apply patch/removal entries or execute targets.
Readable logical member bytes, including repeated physical ranges, share the ZIP
archive expansion policy: at most the larger of 256 MiB or 500 times the PCK's
encoded byte span. Embedded carrier bytes do not enlarge that budget. The full
directory is checked before any member is yielded, hashed or extracted. Encrypted
members are not read and do not consume this plaintext-work allowance. Small
bounded aliases remain valid. This is a processing/output resource bound, separate
from the directory metadata retention budget and format validity.
