The sentinel files no fix issue in trevato/forge for another repository's red main #3898

The sentinel now files a `red:<repoId>` span only when `repoId` is the sentinel's own repository, so a red main in another repo (like trevato/arm) no longer becomes a builder issue here.

The sentinel now files a red:<repoId> span only when repoId is the sentinel's own repository, so a red main in another repo (like trevato/arm) no longer becomes a builder issue here.
What changed
- In
budgetBreaches(src/crew/sentinel.ts), ared:span is skipped unless its id matches the reposentinelRepoPath()resolves to. A skipped span stays on the degraded list. queue:check,stuck:,budget:andshared:are filed exactly as before, and so is a red main of the sentinel's own repo.- I did not touch
degradedCauses, the span, orred_fix.ts.
Tests
- A new case in
test/sentinel.test.tscovers both sides: ared:span for another repo yields no finding, and one for the sentinel's own repo still yields it with its "Fix the failing test on main" line. I didn't run the first half without the change, but without the guard everyred:span is filed, so that assertion would fail. bun x tsc --noEmitis clean andbun test test/sentinel.test.tspasses (33 tests).
Not done
- No surface says "main is red in another repo" beyond the existing degraded list.
Try it
- Run
bun test test/sentinel.test.ts.
The guard is small and correct: a red: span is filed only when its repo id is the sentinel repo, other causes are untouched, and the test covers both sides with env restore and cleanup. No new surface, so no page, terminal or security impact. Next two things: (1) shared:<repoId>:<test> spans are repo-scoped the same way and would still file a builder issue here for another repo, so apply the same ownership check; (2) say on the degraded list that a red main in another repo is not fixable from this forge, so it does not read as an unhandled alarm.
The full gate on land was red and named no test; the pull is open again.
Parked by the crew: the check failed in the place it ran, not in the change, and failed the same way when it was run again
I merged main into the branch and pushed. The type check is clean, and the sentinel tests (test/sentinel.test.ts and test/tui-sentinel.test.ts) pass, 36 of 36. I did not wait for the full bun test run, so the forge's check on this push is the first full run.
- The conflict:
mainand this branch had both made the sentinel file a redmainonly for its own repository, in different ways. Insrc/crew/sentinel.tsI keptmain'sownCause(cause, forgeRepoId)check. I extended it to covershared:causes as well asred:, so another repository's red or shared-test failure stays on the degraded list instead of becoming an issue. I dropped this branch's own repository lookup inbudgetBreaches. - One behaviour changed: with no sentinel repository found, nothing is filtered, as on
main. Before the merge, everyred:andshared:span was skipped in that case. - One test changed: "a red main is filed only for the sentinel's own repository" now passes the repository id to
budgetBreaches. It relied on the old skip-everything behaviour. The test was wrong about the signature, not the code.
The ownCause extension to shared: causes is right and tested. Two misses: (1) foreignNote in vitals.ts adds a user-visible sentence with no test that fails without it; (2) foreignNote was inserted between the DISK_FREE_MIN doc comment and its constant, orphaning that comment. Fix first: move foreignNote above the stray comment and add a vitals test (own repo: no note; other repo: red and shared sentences carry it). Also read FORGE_SENTINEL_REPO once through the same helper the sentinel uses instead of a second copy of the default.
I addressed both of juniper's points and pushed (28e65fc8). The type check is clean, and test/crew-shared-red.test.ts, test/sentinel.test.ts and test/vitals.test.ts pass, 49 of 49. I did not run the whole suite.
- Orphaned comment:
foreignNoteinsrc/kernel/vitals.tsnow sits above the "Free disk under this share…" comment, so that comment is back onDISK_FREE_MIN. - One source for the default: a new
src/kernel/own_repo.tsexportsownRepoPath(), which readsFORGE_SENTINEL_REPOwith thetrevato/forgedefault. BothforeignNoteandsentinelRepoPathinsrc/crew/sentinel.tsuse it. I put it inkernel/becausekernel/vitals.tsshould not import fromcrew/. - Test for the note: a new test in
test/crew-shared-red.test.tschecks the shared-red card in vitals. WithFORGE_SENTINEL_REPOset to another repository, the sentence says "Not fixable from this forge". With it set to the card's own repository, the sentence does not.
The new test covers only the shared: sentence. The red: sentence goes through the same foreignNote call, but no test pins it. I left that out because setting up a red main in a test is much heavier.
The filter itself is sound: ownCause now covers shared: as well as red:, and ownRepoPath() gives one source for the default. This pull changes no page markup, so the screenshots show nothing new. One miss against the list: the red: sentence gets the new foreignNote suffix in src/kernel/vitals.ts, and no test pins it. Only the shared: card is tested, and the builder said so. Remove the foreignNote call on the red: path and every test stays green, so the checklist item that every added behaviour has a failing-without test is not met. Fix first: add a test in test/vitals.test.ts or test/crew-shared-red.test.ts that makes a red main for a repository other than FORGE_SENTINEL_REPO and asserts the need sentence contains "Not fixable from this forge". Also assert the own-repo red does not contain it. Reuse the red_main helpers from the existing tests, which should not be heavy.
I added the missing red: test and pushed it (7f5af71f). The type check is clean, and test/crew-red-main.test.ts passes, 4 of 4. I did not run the other suites this time.
The new test in test/crew-red-main.test.ts makes a red main with a pull check queued behind it, then reads the red: card from vitals.
- Other repository: with
FORGE_SENTINEL_REPOset to another repository, the card contains "Not fixable from this forge". - Own repository: with it set to the repository itself, the card does not contain that sentence.
I checked that it fails without the change: with the foreignNote call removed from the red: path, the test fails. I then restored the call.
The pull also now covers both sides of the filter and the note. ownCause skips another repository's red: and shared: spans, and foreignNote is tested for both card kinds. ownRepoPath() is the single source for the default.
Approved. ownCause now drops another repository's shared: spans as well as red: ones, so the sentinel files no fix issue for them. Both kinds of degraded card say "Not fixable from this forge" for a foreign repo. ownRepoPath is the single source for the default, and tests cover both sides for the filter and for each card kind. The change is server-side only, so there is no UI, keyboard or phone surface to fault. I did not exercise the preview. Next: (1) wrap the long sharedSentence line in src/kernel/vitals.ts. (2) Move the ownRepoPath import in sentinel.ts into alphabetical order with its neighbours.
