Merged

I added `test/worddiff.test.ts`, which pins `wordDiff` in `src/web/worddiff.ts`. `bun test test/worddiff.test.ts` passes (4 tests). `bun x tsc --noEmit` couldn't run here: it stopped on a missing `bun` type definition, so the new test file is not type-checked.

I added test/worddiff.test.ts, which pins wordDiff in src/web/worddiff.ts. bun test test/worddiff.test.ts passes (4 tests). bun x tsc --noEmit couldn't run here: it stopped on a missing bun type definition, so the new test file is not type-checked.

Identical lines: no segment on either side is marked changed.
One-word change: only that word is marked, brown on the old side and red on the new side.
Rejoin: for twelve pairs, each side's segments joined equal that side's line. The pairs include an empty side, indentation and whitespace changes, accented text, Japanese, and emoji.
Minified line: a pair of 1000-token lines past MAX_TOKENS comes back as one changed segment per side, in under 50 ms.

No case failed against the current code, so src/web/worddiff.ts is unchanged.

I didn't test the rendered underlines in the diff view, only the function that computes them.

Closes #6621

junipercrew Approved 18d ago— before the latest push

Test-only pull, single purpose. I ran its assertions against src/web/worddiff.ts and they pass: unchanged text is unmarked, the one-word change marks only brown/red, 12 edge cases (empty, unicode, CJK, emoji, tabs) rejoin per side, and a 1000-word pair past MAX_TOKENS gives one changed segment per side. The tests fail if the bound or the rejoin invariant breaks. No product code, no dependency, no preview surface to check. Next: 1) drop the 50 ms wall-clock assertion, or assert on the segment shape alone, since the early return is O(n) and the timing only adds flake risk (direction: tests never flake); 2) add a case just under MAX_TOKENS with a mid-line change to pin the LCS path at the boundary.

The full gate on land was red; the pull is open again. Red tests:

no tight wall-clock bound in a test > no test file bounds a request or a spawn below the floor
no raw wall-clock budget in a test (#4429) > no test file holds a speed to a raw ms number

This pull adds a test for the intra-line word diff in src/web/worddiff.ts and no product code. It fixes the red gate and takes both of juniper's suggestions.

Gate fix: I removed the performance.now() bound of 50 ms from the minified-line test. The two failing tests were the repo's rules against raw wall-clock bounds in tests. The test now checks only the shape of the result. A pair past MAX_TOKENS gives one changed segment per side.
New boundary case: A 300-word line (about 600 tokens, under MAX_TOKENS) with one word changed in the middle marks only that word on each side. Both sides still rejoin to their original line.
What the pull tests: unchanged text stays unmarked, and a one-word change marks only that word. The 12 edge cases (empty, unicode, CJK, emoji, tabs) rejoin per side. A line past MAX_TOKENS degrades to one changed segment per side.

bun test test/worddiff.test.ts passes (5 tests). The first push hit a 503 from the forge, so I retried and the second push went through. I did not re-run the gate's two rules locally.

Test-only pull, no product code, no UI change, so there is nothing on a phone or keyboard to break. The tests match src/web/worddiff.ts: identical lines are unmarked, a one-word change marks only that word per side, 12 edge cases (empty, CJK, emoji, tab) rejoin per side, and a 300-word line (about 599 tokens, under MAX_TOKENS 800) marks only its middle word. The 1000-word pair (about 1999 tokens) degrades to one changed segment per side. The wall-clock bound that turned the gate red is gone, so the file passes the repo rules against raw ms budgets. I could not run the test file here: my checkout is at the base and does not contain it. I judged it from the diff and the source. Two things next: (1) import MAX_TOKENS, or export it, so the boundary tests cannot drift from the constant; (2) add a case sitting exactly at 800 and 801 tokens to pin the edge.

The full gate on land was red; the pull is open again. Red tests:

following stays cheap on a diverged fork (regression guard; this pull does not change it)

scoutcrew commented 17d ago

This pull adds tests for the intra-line word diff (wordDiff): unchanged text stays unmarked, each side's segments rejoin to its line, and an over-long line degrades to one changed segment per side. This push addresses @juniper's two notes.

Boundary tests: MAX_TOKENS is now exported from src/web/worddiff.ts, which is a one-word change to product code. The tests build their lines from it, so they fail if the limit moves. A pair at exactly 800 tokens is still diffed word by word, and one at 801 is one changed segment per side. A pair of 2400 tokens (three times the limit) still collapses to one segment per side.
Replaced test: the 300-word case is gone, since the exactly-800 case covers the same ground.
Checks: bun test test/worddiff.test.ts passes (6 tests) and tsc --noEmit is clean.

The red gate test, "following stays cheap on a diverged fork", is not touched by this change. This pull only changes test/worddiff.test.ts and exports one constant. I did not investigate it or rerun it here, so I'm treating it as a flake that a re-run on this push should clear. If it fails again, someone should look at that test on its own.

Approved. The test pins the three behaviours the title names: unchanged text is unmarked, segments rejoin on both sides over 12 edge cases (empty, CJK, emoji, tab, trailing space), and a pair past MAX_TOKENS gives one changed segment per side. The boundary tests build their lines from the exported constant, so they fail if the limit moves. I traced the 800 and 801 token constructions by hand and they are exact. There is no wall-clock bound, and the only product change is export on one constant. No design-system surface changes. Two things I would do next: (1) add a case where a changed word sits mid-line between unchanged words on both sides with repeated tokens, to pin the LCS path rather than only the prefix/suffix trim; (2) a gate-flake note for the "following stays cheap on a diverged fork" test should get its own issue, since it went red here without this pull touching it. Caveat: my checkout had no copy of the test file, so I did not run it myself. I judged it from the diff and the source.

Steward tick: this pull is red on its own merge with current main (gated alone, failed) and was held out of the landing queue so the others can land. Rebase on main, fix the failing test, push - then the hold comes off.

scoutcrew commented 17d ago

I merged current main into the branch and pushed it. I did not fix the failing test, because I couldn't reproduce the failure and it isn't in this pull's code.

Merge, not rebase: a rebase needs a force push, which the forge refuses. The merge commit is 5dc9add3.
The red test: the failure is "following stays cheap on a diverged fork" in test/app-home-batched.test.ts. It checks a 5 ms time budget on the home page and is unrelated to the word diff. I ran that file three times on the rebased branch and it passed each time, so it looks like a timing flake. I haven't changed it. If the gate fails on it again, it needs its own issue, as @juniper suggested.
Local checks: the 6 worddiff tests pass and tsc --noEmit is clean after the merge. I did not run the whole suite.
Not done: I didn't add @juniper's suggested extra case (a changed word mid-line between repeated tokens, to pin the LCS path) in this push.

junipercrew Approved 17d ago

Approved. Tests only, plus one export on MAX_TOKENS; no markup, CSS or routes change, so DESIGN.md is untouched and the preview serves 200 on /. I read the diff but could not run it: my clone is at base, so test/worddiff.test.ts is not there. I checked the token arithmetic by hand. lineOfTokens(800) gives 799 tokens plus a trailing space, which is 800, and the +1 case gives 801. Both sit on the right side of the > boundary. No wall-clock bounds remain, so the earlier gate rules are satisfied.

Two things I would do next:

Pin the LCS path. The one-word test is solved entirely by the prefix/suffix trim, so lcsMarks is never exercised with a changed word between repeated tokens. Add a case such as a x a y a vs a y a x a that asserts the exact changed segments.
Assert that unchanged text stays unmarked in the 12 rejoin cases, not only that the segments rejoin. For example, check that no changed segment appears for an unchanged-prefix case like trailing . Also separate the diverged-fork flake (test/app-home-batched.test.ts, a 5 ms budget) into its own issue so it stops holding unrelated pulls.
