Pipeline step 4 dogfood. `/config-audit rollback` could not see a single one of
the four real backups on this machine, and reported "Backup not found" for one
that was sitting right there.
Four defects, one root: nothing agreed on where a backup lives or what its
manifest looks like.
- M-BUG-22 `lib/backup.mjs` resolved `~/.config-audit/backups` (pre-v2.2.0)
while every command, agent and doc uses `~/.claude/config-audit/backups`.
The auto-backup hook and fix-cli wrote to the first, implement to the second,
rollback read only the first. Canonical root now, with the legacy root kept
readable so older backups stay listable and restorable (`legacy: true`).
- M-BUG-25 `parseManifest` understood only the engine's quoted `original_path:`
spelling, but implement hand-builds its manifest with `- backup:`/`original:`/
`sha256:`. Every implement-made backup parsed to zero files and restoreBackup
returned `{restored: [], failed: []}` — a success-shaped no-op. Both formats
parse now, and a manifest with unparseable entries throws instead of
pretending to succeed.
- M-BUG-23 both session hooks watched `~/.config-audit/sessions`, which does not
exist; sessions live under `~/.claude/`. "Check for active sessions" had never
fired once. It fires now.
- M-BUG-24 the suite called createBackup() against the developer's real home —
it had left nine stray backups there, and cleanupOldBackups() deletes past ten.
Root is overridable via CONFIG_AUDIT_BACKUP_ROOT; both test files use it.
Rollback still cannot delete files implement CREATED — no backup can hold a file
that never existed. It no longer does so silently: manifests carry a `created:`
list, restoreBackup returns `createdNotRemoved`, and rollback.md requires the
report. Automatic deletion is a destructive action and needs its own design.
Verified against backup 20260717_032636 on a throwaway copy: all three files
restore byte-exact (sha256 match), zero writes outside the copy, backup dir
unmodified. Suite 1382 -> 1398/0; frozen v5.0.0 snapshots untouched.
