+
+### 2. Security Improvements
+
+Added `validateNpmTag()` function to prevent command injection:
+
+```typescript
+// src/utils.ts
+export function validateNpmTag(tag: string): void {
+    const forbiddenChars = /[;&|`$(){}[\]<>\\!#'"*?\n\r]/
+    if (forbiddenChars.test(tag)) {
+        throw new Error(`Invalid npmTag: contains forbidden characters`)
+    }
+    if (tag.length > 100) {
+        throw new Error(`Invalid npmTag: exceeds maximum length of 100 characters`)
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### 3. CLI Improvements
+
+Added `--yes` flag support for non-interactive mode:
+
+```typescript
+// src/createSyngrisiProject.ts
+const args = yargs(hideBin(process.argv))
+    .option('yes', {
+        alias: 'y',
+        type: 'boolean',
+        description: 'Skip confirmation prompts',
+        default: false,
+    })
+```
+
+### 4. Unit Tests
+
+All 24 unit tests passing with 100% coverage:
+- `validateNpmTag()` validation tests
+- CLI argument parsing tests
+- Package installation tests
+
+## Problems Encountered
+
+### 1. XPC Connection Interrupted Errors
+
+**Problem:** Apple Container CLI threw `XPC connection interrupted` errors when running containers.
+
+**Error message:**
+```
+internalError: "failed to wait for process...XPC connection error: Connection interrupted"
+```
+
+**Solution:** Added `container system start` call before running containers:
+```bash
+# e2e/container/start-containers.sh
+start_container_system() {
+    log_info "Starting container system service..."
+    container system start 2>/dev/null || true
+    log_info "Container system service started"
+}
+```
+
+**Reference:** https://github.com/apple/container/issues/699
+
+### 2. npm init Flags Not Passed to create-sy
+
+**Problem:** Flags like `-y -f` were consumed by `npm init` instead of being passed to create-sy.
+
+**Wrong approach:**
+```bash
+npm init sy@latest -y -f  # -y -f consumed by npm init
+```
+
+**Solution:** Use `--` separator to pass flags through:
+```bash
+npm init sy@latest -- --yes --force  # flags passed to create-sy
+```
+
+### 3. Shell Command Escaping in Containers
+
+**Problem:** Commands weren't being executed properly in containers due to escaping issues.
+
+**Solution:** Fixed escaping in `container-cli.ts`:
+```typescript
+// Use single quotes around the shell command
+const shellCommand = command.join(' && ')
+execSync(`container ${args.join(' ')} sh -c '${shellCommand}'`, {...})
+```
+
+### 4. Container Process Crashes (Exit Code 139)
+
+**Problem:** Some tests fail with exit code 139 (SIGSEGV) during npm installation.
+
+**Hypothesis tested:**
+- Memory issues in containers (increased memory allocation)
+- Timeout issues (increased to 5 minutes)
+- Concurrent container execution (switched to sequential with `singleFork: true`)
+
+**Status:** Not fully resolved. The issue appears to be related to npm installation inside containers crashing intermittently.
+
+### 5. Long Test Execution Time
+
+**Problem:** Tests take extremely long to complete (5+ minutes per test).
+
+**Cause:**
+- Each test starts a new container
+- Downloads create-sy from npm
+- Runs npm install which downloads all syngrisi dependencies
+
+**Current configuration:**
+```typescript
+// vitest.e2e.config.ts
+testTimeout: 300_000, // 5 minutes per test
+pool: 'forks',
+poolOptions: {
+    forks: {
+        singleFork: true, // Sequential execution
+    },
+},
+```
+
+## Test Results
+
+### Passing Tests
+
+| Test | Status | Duration |
+|------|--------|----------|
+| Node.js 18 environment verification | PASS | ~10s |
+| Node.js 20 environment verification | PASS | ~10s |
+| Node.js 22 environment verification | PASS | ~10s |
+
+### Failing/Unstable Tests
+
+| Test | Status | Issue |
+|------|--------|-------|
+| npm init sy@latest installs syngrisi | FAIL | Exit code 139 (SIGSEGV) |
+| Installation with specific version | UNSTABLE | Container crashes |
+| Full flow installation | UNSTABLE | Long timeout/crashes |
+
+## What's Not Done
+
+### 1. Stable npm Installation Tests
+The tests that actually run `npm init sy@latest` inside containers are unstable due to:
+- Container crashes (exit code 139)
+- Long execution times
+- Memory/resource issues
+
+### 2. Local Package Testing
+Currently tests download published `create-sy` from npm. A mechanism to test local unpublished changes would be beneficial:
+- Could use `npm pack` + volume mount
+- Or npm link approach inside containers
+
+### 3. CI Integration
+E2E tests are not yet integrated into CI pipeline:
+- Apple Container CLI only works on macOS
+- Would need self-hosted macOS runners
+- Or alternative containerization approach for Linux CI
+
+### 4. Security Validation Tests
+Tests for invalid npmTag are written but not fully verified:
+- `rejects dangerous characters in tag`
+- `rejects tag with shell metacharacters`
+
+## Recommendations
+
+1. **Short term:** Mark npm installation e2e tests as `@slow` or `@unstable` and run them separately
+2. **Medium term:** Investigate container memory/resource limits for stability
+3. **Long term:** Consider Docker-based tests for CI compatibility
