Ethan 55e525fc28 ci: add InTx linter replacing ruleguard rule (#24422)
Replace the old `InTx` ruleguard rule in `scripts/rules.go` with a
custom in-tree `go/analysis` analyzer under `scripts/intxcheck/`. The
new analyzer catches the same direct and pass-through misuse classes as
before, plus two new classes the pattern-matcher couldn't reach:

- **Indirect same-package helper misuse** — flags `p.someHelper(ctx)`
inside `InTx` when the helper body uses the outer store (the PR #24369
bug class).
- **Nested dangerous closures** — descends into `go func() { ... }()`,
`defer func() { ... }()`, and immediately-invoked function literals.

The analyzer uses semantic `types.Object` identity instead of raw
expression string comparison, which avoids false positives from
closure-local shadowing and catches simple aliases like `outer := s.db`
and `alias := s`.

This PR also fixes three real outer-store-inside-transaction bugs the
new analyzer surfaced:

- `coderd/wsbuilder/wsbuilder.go`: `FindMatchingPresetID` and
`getWorkspaceTask` now use the inner transaction store instead of
`b.store`.
- `enterprise/dbcrypt/dbcrypt.go`: `ensureEncrypted` now calls
`s.InsertDBCryptKey` (the tx-wrapped store) instead of
`db.InsertDBCryptKey`. The `dbCrypt.InTx` method wraps the raw tx in a
new `*dbCrypt`, so `s.InsertDBCryptKey` still dispatches through the
encryption layer.

Two call sites need `// intxcheck:ignore` suppressions. Both are one-off
patterns that only look like misuse because the analyzer doesn't track
assignments — proving them safe would require full dataflow analysis,
which is well beyond what a targeted lint like this should attempt:

- `coderd/database/dbfake/dbfake.go` — `b.db` is reassigned to `tx` on
the preceding line, so `b.doInTX()` actually uses the transaction. The
analyzer sees the original `b.db` identity and flags it.
- `coderd/database/db_test.go` — test intentionally passes the outer
store to `require.Equal` to assert that nested `InTx` returns the same
handle.

Suppressions use `// intxcheck:ignore` instead of `//nolint:intxcheck`
because `intxcheck` runs as a standalone `go/analysis` tool outside
golangci-lint. golangci-lint's `nolintlint` checker flags `//nolint`
directives for linters it doesn't control, so we use a custom comment
prefix to avoid that conflict.

Coder enables organizations to set up development environments in their public or private cloud infrastructure. Cloud development environments are defined with Terraform, connected through a secure high-speed Wireguard® tunnel, and automatically shut down when not used to save on costs. Coder gives engineering teams the flexibility to use the cloud for workloads most beneficial to them.

  • Define cloud development environments in Terraform
    • EC2 VMs, Kubernetes Pods, Docker Containers, etc.
  • Automatically shutdown idle resources to save on costs
  • Onboard developers in seconds instead of days

Quickstart

The most convenient way to try Coder is to install it on your local machine and experiment with provisioning cloud development environments using Docker (works on Linux, macOS, and Windows).

# First, install Coder
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh

# Start the Coder server (caches data in ~/.cache/coder)
coder server

# Navigate to http://localhost:3000 to create your initial user,
# create a Docker template and provision a workspace

Install

The easiest way to install Coder is to use our install script for Linux and macOS. For Windows, use the latest ..._installer.exe file from GitHub Releases.

curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh

You can run the install script with --dry-run to see the commands that will be used to install without executing them. Run the install script with --help for additional flags.

See install for additional methods.

Once installed, you can start a production deployment with a single command:

# Automatically sets up an external access URL on *.try.coder.app
coder server

# Requires a PostgreSQL instance (version 13 or higher) and external access URL
coder server --postgres-url <url> --access-url <url>

Use coder --help to get a list of flags and environment variables. Use our install guides for a complete walkthrough.
