Conversation
…oo-Code-Org#1375) Introduces the version token - dev:ino:size:mtimeNs:ctimeNs derived from a single fs.stat - a pure function of a file's on-disk state that every process computing from the same state agrees on. The compare-and-swap write guard (A2/A3) will compare the token observed at read time against the token recomputed before a write to detect stale or replaced files. No production callers yet: this is infrastructure for the file-write safety series (plan: #33), part of upstream epic Zoo-Code-Org#1375.
…oo-Code-Org#1375) Review finding: 'ino is an exact integer' was overstated. Node exposes ino as a float64 number: exact for small POSIX inode numbers, but on modern Windows the file ID exceeds 2^53 so Node's own value is already rounded (verified on node v25: non-zero ino, isSafeInteger=false). It remains deterministic per file (same file -> same token), so the token contract is unchanged; change detection rests on exact dev/size plus the mtime/ctime ns fields. Document the bound instead of claiming exactness.
Zoo-Code-Org#1375) CodeRabbit finding on this PR: the default numeric fs.stat() loses precision (values above 2^53 are rounded, including Windows file IDs) and the ms->ns derivation introduced a double-precision quantum. Fixed by fetching the stat with { bigint: true }: all five token fields (dev, ino, size, mtimeNs, ctimeNs) are exact BigInt values rendered as decimal strings, with no float anywhere. The sub-ms test now asserts an exact 1_000 ns delta instead of bounded drift, and a regression test pins a size of 10^16+1 (> Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER).

812-813: Keep the legacy observation consistent with returned content.
fs.readFilereturns content before Line 812 obtains the token. If the file changes in that interval, this path stores version B while it returns content from version A. A future guard can then accept version B and overwrite an unseen edit.This duplicates the existing post-read token race finding for the native path. Apply the same coherent read-and-observe fix to this legacy path.

Summary
S2 of the file-write safety series (plan: easonLiangWorldedtech/Zoo-Code#33), part of epic #1375. Stacked on S1 (#1383, version token). Introduces the per-task file observation registry (A2): when the agent reads an existing file, the on-disk version token is recorded against the task. The S4 guarded-write will later compare the recorded observation with the token recomputed before a write to detect "the file changed since the read" (stale) or "the file was replaced" (identity change). This PR records observations only — it does not consult them, so behavior is unchanged.
Changes
src/core/task/observationRegistry.ts(new):ObservationRegistry— an in-memoryMap<absolutePath, FileObservation>whereFileObservation = { version: string, observedAt: number };observereplaces on re-observation; plusget/has/clear/size.
