Six test files still selected an OS branch with a faked host. Each one now
carries the marker for the host that owns the branch, or derives the
expectation from the real host:
- test_clipboard: macos_only on the has_clipboard_image dispatch. The fake
picked the branch, but _macos_has_image needs osascript.
- test_claw: windows_only on the tasklist/powershell scan, with return_value
in place of a side_effect list that pinned the call count.
- test_linux_desktop_entry: the parametrize over "darwin"/"win32" becomes one
marked test per host. A fake left POSIX paths and a POSIX XDG layout.
- test_graphical_browser_detection: linux_only on the display-server arm. The
$BROWSER check runs before the platform branch, so its test stays unmarked.
- test_auth_nous_provider: the fixture pinned linux so the macOS certifi
fallback could not change the result. The assertion now reads the host, so
the macOS lane covers the fallback too.
- test_tts_macos_output and test_voice_mode: the afplay policy exists because
CoreAudio init raises a TCC prompt, which no Linux runner reproduces.
tests/conftest.py refuses collection when one test carries two OS markers.
Each marker skips on all but one host, so two of them make a test that runs
nowhere while every lane reports green. tests/test_os_marker_gating.py pins
that behavior.
The docstring on TestConfirmDestructiveSlash said the Windows job runs it.
The class has no marker, so -m windows_only deselects it.
Addresses review on #62601. Applies a single rule — no sounddevice for
audio OUTPUT on macOS (PortAudio/CoreAudio init triggers a
kTCCServiceMediaLibrary prompt) — consistently at all three output sites:
- play_audio_file: WAV playback (already routed to afplay) now uses the
shared _sounddevice_output_allowed() helper.
- play_beep: synthesize the tone with numpy only, then on macOS play it
via a temp WAV through afplay instead of sounddevice.
- stream_tts_to_speaker (tts_tool): on macOS, skip the sounddevice
OutputStream so playback falls through to the existing tempfile/afplay path.
Audio INPUT (recording) is untouched — it legitimately needs mic permission.
Tests: TestMacOSAudioOutputPolicy (voice_mode) proves WAV + beep routing
does not import sounddevice on Darwin and still uses it off Darwin;
test_tts_macos_output proves streaming TTS skips the OutputStream on Darwin.
Existing test_play_wav_via_sounddevice pinned to non-Darwin for determinism.
