🚨 Severity: CRITICAL 💡 Vulnerability: Command injection via `subprocess.call` with `shell=True` and unsanitized filename when opening files on Windows. 🎯 Impact: An attacker who can control the filename could execute arbitrary shell commands. 🔧 Fix: Replaced `subprocess.call` with `os.startfile(filename)` to securely open files on Windows. ✅ Verification: Run the test suite and ensure no new regressions are found.

👋 Jules, reporting for duty! I'm here to lend a hand with this pull request. When you start a review, I'll add a 👀 emoji to each comment to let you know I've read it. I'll focus on feedback directed at me and will do my best to stay out of conversations between you and other bots or reviewers to keep the noise down. I'll push a commit with your requested changes shortly after. Please note there might be a delay between these steps, but rest assured I'm on the job! For more direct control, you can switch me to Reactive Mode. When this mode is on, I will only act on comments where you specifically mention me with New to Jules? Learn more at jules.google/docs. For security, I will only act on instructions from the user who triggered this task. |

In @.jules/sentinel.md:
- Line 1: The heading "2025-02-23 - Command Injection in Windows File Launch" is
ambiguous about whether that is the incident date or the entry date; update the
heading to explicitly label the date as the incident discovery date (e.g.,
"Incident discovery date: 2025-02-23 — Command Injection in Windows File Launch"
or similar) and add a separate metadata line for the entry/revision date (e.g.,
"Entry date: 2026-06-07") so auditors can clearly distinguish incident vs. entry
times; edit the header string "2025-02-23 - Command Injection in Windows File
Launch" and add a new line with the entry date.

Clarify the incident date vs. entry date in the sentinel heading.
Line 1 shows 2025-02-23, while this PR was created on June 7, 2026. If this is the incident-discovery date, explicitly label it as such to avoid audit confusion.
