Addresses #140.

In CI run 33367427746 (windows) community list -q completes within 10s timed out with zero diagnostics — no CLI output, no daemon output — because:

  1. The vitest per-test timeout (10s) raced the subprocess timeout (also 10s) and won, so vitest's generic Test timed out in 10000ms replaced runBitsocialCommand's informative rejection that carries the child's stdout/stderr.
  2. The test daemon's logs are written to a --logPath temp dir that CI never prints or uploads.

Changes

  • vitest per-test timeouts raised above the subprocess timeouts (10s → 30s, delete 30s → 60s) so the informative rejection always wins. The completion-time enforcement is unchanged — the subprocess timeout still SIGKILLs and fails the command at the same 10s/30s thresholds.
  • On timeout, an optional collectTimeoutDiagnostics callback adds daemon-side context: the daemon's captured stdout/stderr plus the tail of each .log file in its --logPath dir, capped at 8KB per section.
  • Fixed a race found while verifying: after SIGKILL, the child's close event (exitCode null) fired while diagnostics collection was being awaited, resolving the promise and losing the rejection; a timedOut flag now guards the close handler.

Verification

  • Temporarily forced a 50ms timeout on community list -q: the failure message now contains the child's output plus the daemon banner/stdout, stderr, and daemon log file tail (this also caught the close-event race above).
  • Full suite: npm run build && npm run build:test && npm run test:cli — 43 files, 341 tests passed.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Tests
    • Improved CLI command completion test diagnostics, including captured output and daemon logs when timeouts occur.
    • Increased test time limits to better accommodate slower command and deletion operations.
    • Enhanced timeout handling to prevent misleading follow-up errors and provide clearer failure details.

)

A command hang in CI previously produced no information at all: the
vitest per-test timeout (10s) raced the subprocess timeout (also 10s)
and won, replacing the informative rejection - which carries the child's
stdout/stderr - with a generic "Test timed out in 10000ms". The daemon's
logs also lived in a temp dir CI never surfaces.

- Raise vitest per-test timeouts above the subprocess timeouts so the
  informative rejection always wins; the 10s/30s completion-time
  enforcement itself is unchanged (the subprocess timeout still kills
  and fails the command at the same thresholds).
- On timeout, collect daemon-side diagnostics: the daemon's captured
  stdout/stderr and the tail of each log file in its --logPath dir,
  capped at 8KB per section.
- Guard the close handler with a timedOut flag: after SIGKILL the
  child's close event fired while diagnostics collection was awaited,
  resolving the promise with exitCode null and losing the rejection.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The CLI completion tests now collect truncated command output, daemon output, and daemon log tails when commands time out. Timeout handling prevents later process-close events from resolving failed commands. Test timeouts and diagnostic callback usage were updated across community and challenge tests.

Changes

CLI timeout diagnostics

Layer / File(s) Summary
Timeout diagnostics collection
test/cli/command-completion-time.test.ts
runBitsocialCommand now accepts a diagnostics callback. Timeout errors include truncated stdout, stderr, and daemon diagnostics. The helper reads daemon output and .log file tails.
CLI test timeout integration
test/cli/command-completion-time.test.ts
Community tests pass the daemon diagnostics callback. Community and challenge tests use longer Vitest timeouts. The delete test uses a 30-second command timeout and a 60-second test timeout.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 9022a

The change improves timeout diagnostics, but the current implementation can await unbounded daemon log reads before rejecting; a slow or large log could trigger the test framework timeout and lose the intended diagnostics. This bounded CI/test correctness issue should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge.

Moving this change onto PR #139 instead (same commit, cherry-picked) — keeping the diagnostics together with the pkc-js upgrade whose CI failure motivated them.

Add a timeout-race regression test.

Add focused coverage for runBitsocialCommand: keep the child alive past timeoutMs, provide delayed diagnostics, emit output larger than tailOf’s limit, and assert the rejection includes the truncated output and diagnostics. Assert that the later close event cannot resolve the promise. No equivalent coverage exists.

Bound timeout diagnostics before rejecting.

Line 63 waits for diagnostics before runBitsocialCommand rejects. collectDaemonDiagnostics reads each complete log file at Line 119 and truncates it only afterward. A large or slow log can therefore delay the rejection until Vitest’s 30-second or 60-second timeout fires, losing the intended diagnostics. Read only a bounded tail and add a bounded fallback before awaiting diagnostics.

Also applies to: 119-119
