fix(cli): don't let an unreadable credentials file crash the telemetry hook - #641
Conversation
…y hook The preAction hook resolves telemetry auth before every command's action, with no try/catch. When the credentials file could not be read (EPERM / EACCES — e.g. the Windows ACL lock-out `doctor` is written to diagnose), the raw fs error ended the process: `doctor` never got to report it and offline commands such as `agent list` failed, while telemetry is on by default. Add tryResolveTelemetryAuth, which never throws, and use it in the hook. On failure the command runs as if telemetry were off: telemetryEmit is cleared, so no beacon is sent and recordOutcome makes no fallback read at exit. Under --debug the swallowed error is logged as `[debug] telemetry skipped`. Closes TestSprite#465

Issue
#465requires best-effort auth lookup, command execution after lookup failure, debug logging, no telemetry event, and tests.src/index.tscallstryResolveTelemetryAuth; a failed lookup disablestelemetryEmitand reports the error under--debug.src/lib/telemetry.tsprovides the non-throwing lookup and swallows callback errors. The reported unit and end-to-end tests cover lookup success and failure,doctor, an offline command, debug output, and telemetry suppression. The implementation preserves command-owned credential errors because it changes only the telemetry hook lookup.

Keep this e2e coverage deterministic and offline.
The test/** guidance includes local-e2e tests and forbids real network and timers. The loopback HTTP server uses real sockets, and spawn uses a wall-clock 20_000 ms timeout. Existing e2e tests use the same pattern, but the repository defines no e2e exception.
Because runCli spawns dist/index.js as a separate process, parent-process fetch and sleep test dependencies cannot be injected directly. Move this behavior coverage to an in-process harness with injected dependencies, or add a supported subprocess fixture that provides those dependencies.

Thanks. I'm keeping this one as is, for two reasons.
-
What's under test can only run in a subprocess. The bug is in the
preActionhook thatsrc/index.tsregisters at module top level, andprogram.parseAsync(process.argv)runs on import. There's no exported entry point that takes injectedfetch/sleep, so an in-process harness couldn't execute this path without refactoringindex.tsitself, which is out of scope for [Hackathon] fix(cli): an unreadable credentials file crashes doctor and offline commands in the telemetry pre-action hook #465. The part that can run in-process,tryResolveTelemetryAuth, is covered deterministically insrc/lib/telemetry.spec.ts(four cases, no I/O beyond a temp dir). -
This follows the repo's established local-e2e pattern.
test/e2e/is the suite that drives the builtdist/index.jsagainst an in-process loopbackcreateServer:telemetry-local,exit-code,signal,docs-uploadandlocal-tunnel-teardownall do it, with the samespawntimeout as a hang guard. CONTRIBUTING describes that suite as mock-based with no external dependencies, and a server on127.0.0.1:0inside the test process is neither external nor real network. Nothing in this test waits on the timer; it only bounds a hung child.
Happy to move it if the maintainers would rather have it elsewhere.

@Davidson3556 Understood. I won’t press for a harness refactor in #465.
The subprocess test covers the registered preAction hook. The resolver unit tests cover the isolated error handling. The loopback server avoids external services, and the timeout serves as a hang guard.
My Major stability classification was too strong. The remaining issue is a conflict with the literal test/** guidance, not a demonstrated runtime defect. I’ll leave that policy interpretation to the maintainers.

Thanks @Davidson3556, the fix looks right. One change to the e2e: #574 (the fix for #536) makes |
…ile suite With TESTSPRITE_API_KEY and TESTSPRITE_API_URL both set, loadConfig skips the credentials file, so the hook never reads it and the suite stops exercising the fix. Leave the key out of the environment; doctor then reports the unreadable file as a failure and exits 1.
What does this PR do?
The
preActionhook insrc/index.tsresolves telemetry auth before every command's action, with notry/catch. When the credentials file can't be read, the raw fs error ends the process before the command runs. That happens withEPERM/EACCES, for example on files locked by an earlier CLI version through the Windows ACL bug, whichdoctoris written to diagnose. The result:testsprite doctorcrashes withError: EACCES …(exit 1) and never shows its own Credentials diagnosis.agent list,test lint, …) fail the same way.Telemetry is on by default, and
telemetry.ts's own contract says telemetry never changes a command's behavior, output or exit code.Following the scope in the triage comment on #465:
tryResolveTelemetryAuth()intelemetry.ts: the same lookup asresolveTelemetryAuth, but it never throws. On any error it returnsundefinedand hands the error to an optionalonError. A throwingonErroris swallowed too.telemetryEmit, so the command runs as if telemetry were off. No beacon is sent, andrecordOutcomemakes no fallback credentials read at exit. Without that,doctor, which can repair the file during its run, could still send one.--debug, the swallowed reason is logged as[debug] telemetry skipped: <message>, like the skill-nudge path (fix(skill-nudge): log swallowed errors in debug mode #317).--dry-run,completionand--plan-templatebehave exactly as before.No new dependency.
