 - **Thread-Local Context Isolation:** Utilizes `threading.local()` for managing per-thread AI client context (e.g., source tier tagging), ensuring thread safety during concurrent multi-agent execution.
 - **Asynchronous Tool Execution Engine:** Refactored MCP tool dispatch and AI client loops to use `asyncio.gather` and `asyncio.to_thread`, enabling parallel execution of independent tool calls within a single AI turn to reduce latency.
 
+## pyproject.toml pytest addopts (added 2026-06-19, per test_sandbox_hardening_20260619)
+
+`[tool.pytest.ini_options].addopts = "--basetemp=tests/artifacts/_pytest_tmp"`.
+
+**Rationale:** Per `conductor/code_styleguides/workspace_paths.md`, ALL test infrastructure paths must live under `./tests/`. pytest's `tmp_path` and `tmp_path_factory` fixtures default to `%TEMP%\pytest-of-<user>\` on Windows. This `addopts` redirects them under `./tests/` so the FR1 runtime guard's allowlist (also `./tests/`) is a single rule.
+
 ## Architectural Patterns
 
 - **Centralized Registry Management:** Consolidation of critical application constants (e.g., `PROVIDERS`, `AGENT_TOOL_NAMES`) into `src/models.py` as a single source of truth, eliminating redundant list definitions across the UI and Controller.
