Fixes #462.

What changed

  • replaces the hard-coded 1 second lsof deadline with a bounded configurable 5–10 second discovery timeout
  • safely defaults non-finite runtime values to 5 seconds
  • adds a repeatable released-baseline vs packed-candidate stale-daemon proof harness
  • verifies stale/replacement PID and socket cleanup on success and failure paths

Qualification evidence

  • released origin/main package: expected failure at the 1000 ms lsof deadline; stale PID gone and socket absent
  • freshly packed/installed candidate: repeated pass with API-v3 replacement and exact process/socket cleanup
  • client tests: 28 passed, 3 skipped
  • build/typecheck, Prettier, SDK parity, OpenAPI contract, and diff checks: pass
  • two independent review rounds: GREEN

No package was published and no deployment was performed.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The client adds a bounded stale-daemon termination timeout, preserves typed discovery and stop errors, and verifies process and socket release. Tests cover timeout clamping, delayed discovery, failure propagation, and cleanup. A standalone script validates replacement behavior.

Changes

Stale daemon replacement

Layer / File(s) Summary
Bounded stale-daemon discovery
packages/client/src/client.ts, packages/client/src/client.test.ts
The client adds a termination-timeout option and preserves typed discovery errors. Tests cover delayed lsof, timeout diagnostics, non-finite values, and error propagation.
Process and socket release
packages/client/src/client.ts, packages/client/src/client.test.ts
stopStaleDaemon() uses a clamped 5–10 second timeout and waits for the stale process and socket to exit. Tests cover successful release and bounded failure.
Installed-client replacement verification
scripts/verify-client-stale-daemon.mjs, packages/client/CHANGELOG.md
The verification script forces delayed discovery, checks failure state, and centralizes cleanup. The changelog records the updated behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 3ab44

The client now uses bounded stale-daemon discovery and termination timeouts, retains typed diagnostics, and adds cleanup and regression coverage. No concrete merge-blocking risk remains.

Poem

A rabbit checks the daemon trail,
Five seconds guard the waiting gate,
The socket clears, the process fades,
Typed errors mark the broken roads,
Clean tests hop beside the fix.

- Line 353: Extend the declared result type used by the
LifecycleInternals.runCommand test double to include optional timedOut and
commandError fields, so existing mockResolvedValue calls type-check while
preserving current behavior.

In `@packages/client/src/client.ts`:
- Line 511: Clamp the stale-daemon termination deadline in the ensureReady flow
instead of using startTimeoutMs directly. Use a dedicated configurable
termination timeout constrained to the required 5–10 second range, ensuring
finite behavior even when startTimeoutMs is oversized or infinite, while
preserving the existing termination and replacement flow.

- dedicate a clamped 5-10s staleDaemonTerminationTimeoutMs to the stale-daemon
  exit wait so an oversized or non-finite startTimeoutMs (or a SIGTERM-ignoring
  daemon) can no longer hang ensureReady forever (CodeRabbit major)
- propagate STALE_DAEMON_DISCOVERY_FAILED / STALE_DAEMON_STOP_FAILED through
  connectAndNegotiate instead of rewriting them as VERSION_INCOMPATIBLE
- proof harness: force the lsof fallback on Linux (procfs miss), assert
  post-failure state before teardown, install SIGINT/SIGTERM handlers, and
  discover an untracked replacement PID during teardown
- tests: skip delayed-lsof test on win32; type runCommand test double with
  timedOut/commandError; red-green regressions for the bounded wait and
  preserved error codes
