Type of change

  • Bug fix

What does this PR do?

Fixes the Truncate > cleanup test failing on every CI run since 2026-08-17 (on unchanged code), and the underlying live data-loss bug.

Identifier.create packs timestamp * 4096 + counter into 6 bytes, which wraps every 2^36 ms (~795.4 days). The 26th wrap since epoch landed 2026-08-14T11:19:55Z. After that boundary, newly created IDs decode to tiny timestamps while the 7-day-retention cutoff (computed from a pre-wrap timestamp) decodes as astronomically large — so both truncation cleanups considered every freshly written file "older than 7 days" and deleted truncated tool outputs the moment cleanup ran.

Fix: both cleanups (tool/truncate.ts Effect service and the legacy tool/truncation.ts module used by bootstrap/bash/prompt) now age files by mtime, which does not wrap; stat failures keep the file (deletion fails safe). Tagged upstream_fix — the wrap-prone ID encoding is upstream OpenCode code; if upstream reworks the encoding we can drop the marker.

Why this is correct: the wrap arithmetic is verified (2^36 ms = 795.4 days; boundary 26 × 2^36 ms = 2026-08-14T11:19:55Z, matching the first CI failure on Aug 17 when the test's now - 3 days fixture crossed the boundary), and mtime-based aging removes the dependence on the ID encoding entirely.

How did you verify your code works?

  • Reproduced the failing test locally (recent file deleted), then green after the fix; test now sets explicit mtimes (utimes) instead of ID-embedded timestamps.
  • Full test/tool directory: 496 pass / 0 fail; typecheck clean; marker check clean (upstream_fix markers in place).
  • Not verified: behavior at the NEXT wrap boundary (Nov 2028) — irrelevant now that aging uses mtime.

Note

Medium Risk
Touches scheduled cleanup that deletes persisted tool outputs; behavior change is intentional but wrong mtime handling could retain stale files or, if fail-safe were removed, delete unpredictably.

Overview
Fixes truncated tool output being deleted immediately after the 48-bit Identifier timestamp encoding wrapped (~2026-08-14). Cleanup no longer infers age from tool_* filenames; it uses file mtime against a 7-day cutoff in both the Effect Truncate service and the legacy truncation module.

Fail-safe behavior: stat errors, missing mtime, or unstatable entries (e.g. dangling symlinks) are kept, not deleted. The Effect path stats via injected FSUtil so in-memory/custom FS matches production.

Tests set explicit utimes instead of ID-embedded times, add a dangling-symlink case, and introduce scoped symlinkScoped for cleanup.

Summary by cubic

Prevents truncation cleanup from deleting fresh tool outputs by aging files by mtime instead of decoding Identifier timestamps. After the 48-bit timestamp wrapped on 2026-08-14, new files decoded as “ancient” and were removed; cleanup now compares file mtime to the retention cutoff and keeps files on stat errors.

  • Updates both cleanup paths: packages/opencode/src/tool/truncate.ts stats via injected FSUtil.Service (from @opencode-ai/core/fs-util); packages/opencode/src/tool/truncation.ts uses Node fs. Deletes only when mtimeMs < cutoffMs; stat failure or absent mtime keeps the file (including dangling symlinks).
  • Tests set explicit mtimes and add a dangling symlink case verified with lstat; introduces symlinkScoped that uses the injected FileSystem service for teardown even on failed assertions. No public API or configuration changes; no migration required.

Written for commit b88f325. Summary will update on new commits.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved cleanup of temporary tool files by using their actual filesystem modification times.
    • Prevented files from being deleted when their metadata cannot be read, reducing the risk of accidental removal.
    • Preserved existing filtering and error-handling behavior, including safe handling of dangling links and failed deletions.
  • Tests

    • Updated cleanup coverage to verify removal based on file age rather than identifier contents.
    • Added checks ensuring recent files and files with unavailable metadata are preserved.

`Identifier.create` packs `timestamp * 4096 + counter` into 6 bytes,
wrapping every 2^36 ms (~795.4 days). The 26th wrap since epoch landed
2026-08-14T11:19:55Z: post-wrap IDs decode to tiny timestamps, so both
truncation cleanups computed a pre-wrap cutoff astronomically larger than
every new file's decoded timestamp — every truncated tool output written
after Aug 14 was deleted the moment cleanup ran, and the `Truncate >
cleanup` test failed on every CI run since Aug 17 on unchanged code.
Both cleanups (`tool/truncate.ts` Effect service and `tool/truncation.ts`
legacy module, used by bootstrap/bash/prompt) now age files by mtime,
which does not wrap; stat failures keep the file (deletion fails safe).
Tagged `upstream_fix` — the wrap-prone encoding is upstream OpenCode code.
Test updated to set explicit mtimes instead of ID-embedded timestamps.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Truncation cleanup now determines file age from filesystem modification times. It retains files when stat operations fail. Tests use ordinary identifiers, explicit modification times, and a dangling symlink.

Changes

Truncation cleanup

Layer / File(s)Summary
Filesystem mtime retention
packages/opencode/src/tool/truncate.ts, packages/opencode/src/tool/truncation.ts
Both cleanup paths compare mtimeMs with the seven-day cutoff, retain files on stat failures, suppress deletion errors, and remove the unused Identifier import.
Cleanup validation
packages/opencode/test/tool/truncation.test.ts, packages/opencode/test/lib/filesystem.ts
The test sets explicit file mtimes, validates old-file deletion and recent-file retention, and preserves a dangling symlink when metadata lookup fails. The filesystem helper provides scoped symlink cleanup.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk:🔵 Low · up to 78a9d

The cleanup fix is mergeable with owner awareness, but the mtime path should remain compatible with the repository’s filesystem abstraction, and the dangling-symlink test should reliably clean up after interrupted execution to avoid contaminating shared test state.

Poem

A rabbit checks each file with care,
Reads its mtime in the open air.
Old hops away, fresh stays bright,
Stat errors keep it safe tonight.

Codex review catch on #1113: the Effect-service cleanup statted the host
Node filesystem while every other operation used the injected
`FSUtil.Service` — files present only in a custom/in-memory provider would
hit the fail-safe infinite-mtime branch and never clean. `FSUtil` extends
platform `FileSystem`, so `fs.stat` is available on the injected service;
`FileInfo.mtime` is an `Option<Date>`, and an absent mtime keeps the file
(deletion fails safe).

Three reviewers converged: the symlink's unlink ran only on the success
path — a failed assertion would leak it into the real data dir, where the
fail-safe under test deliberately keeps it forever. New `symlinkScoped`
helper (mirroring `writeFileStringScoped`) unlinks via a scope finalizer,
which runs regardless of assertion outcome.

Correctness release for `check --checks *` + native bridge resilience.
Changelog:
- altimate-core 0.7.0 upgrade + consumer contract sync surfaces findings
many `check --checks {validate,semantic,grade,pii,migration,safety,
policy,compare}` paths previously missed. Teams gating CI on `--fail-on
error|warning` may see new failures on unchanged SQL — these are real
findings, not regressions in your code. (#1090)
- Truncated tool-output files were being deleted the moment they were
written since 2026-08-14, due to a 48-bit Identifier timestamp wrap.
Both cleanups now age files by mtime; stat failures fail safe (keep
the file). (#1113, closes#1112)
- Native bridge no longer poisons itself for the process lifetime on a
transient NAPI load failure — registration now caches an in-flight
promise, cleared on failure so subsequent calls can retry. Fix +
adversarial tests from the v0.9.6 release review (Chaos Gremlin).
Deferred to follow-up issues: #1124 (grace-window flag), #1125 (rule

* release: v0.9.6 review — dispatcher race guard + qualify `rule` wording
Addresses coderabbit findings on the release PR:
- **Major** — dispatcher.ts: without generation tracking, a stale
registration attempt's `.then` handler could clobber replacement state
installed mid-flight by a concurrent `reset()` or `setRegistrationHook()`.
Success path nulled `_ensureRegistered` (wiping a replacement hook);
failure path nulled `_registrationPromise` (breaking dedup for a newer
in-flight promise). Fix: bump a generation counter on every mutation
entry point; the settle handlers only mutate cached state if their
captured generation is still current. 2 new adversarial tests cover
both races.
- **Minor** — CHANGELOG.md and docs/docs/usage/check.md: the "every
finding carries a `rule` field" claim isn't quite true — `lint`
findings may omit `rule` if the engine didn't attach one (matches the
documented Finding Object where `rule` is optional). Qualified the
wording in both files to "when set" / "when the underlying engine
attaches one" so users know to check for presence before switching
on it.
Local verification: `bun test test/skill/release-v0.9.6-adversarial.test.ts
test/altimate/dispatcher.test.ts` → 14/14 pass (2 new race tests).
`bun turbo typecheck` clean.

* release: v0.9.6 review round 2 — self-heal dispatcher after stale register()
Addresses second round of coderabbit + cubic findings on release/v0.9.6:
- **cubic P2 (dispatcher.ts)** — the previous generation guard prevented a
stale hook's `.then` handler from mutating shared state, but the old
hook BODY itself could still `Dispatcher.register()` late and clobber
fresh entries a newer hook had already written. Fix: on stale-generation
success, clear `_registrationPromise` so the next `Dispatcher.call`
re-runs the CURRENT hook — its `register()` calls then idempotently
overwrite whatever the stale hook wrote. Successful current-generation
attempts keep the resolved promise memoized so subsequent calls
fast-path through an already-settled await.
- **cubic P3 (test file)** — replaced every `setTimeout` sync point with
Promise-gate synchronisation. Bun's `async` function bodies run sync
until the first `await`, so `Dispatcher.call(...)` has already registered
its cached promise and hit `await _registrationPromise` by the time
control returns to us — no external delay needed. Tests are now
scheduler-independent.
- **cubic P3 (docs/usage/check.md)** — rewrote the dangling
"and how the rule inventory is discovered in practice" clause. Now
links to the Finding Object schema and calls out which check types
always vs sometimes include `rule`.
- New adversarial test covering the stale-register self-heal path;
full dispatcher suite: 15/15 pass. Non-vacuous: verified the new
test FAILS if the P2 fix is reverted.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* release: v0.9.6 review round 3 — revert P2 self-heal; document contract
Reverts the round-2 self-heal (was: on stale-generation success, clear
`_registrationPromise` so the current hook re-runs). Coderabbit + cubic
both correctly flagged that this reintroduces the very race the round-1
generation guard was meant to prevent: if the stale hook resolves while
a REPLACEMENT hook is still in flight, clearing `_registrationPromise`
clobbers the newer attempt's cached promise — a third caller then starts
a second registration attempt, breaking dedup.
Every attempt to self-heal without inventing a heavier per-entry
generation scheme (or wrapping ``register()`` with a generation guard)
introduces another race. Doing that here would materially complicate
the dispatcher for a scenario that never occurs in production —
``setRegistrationHook`` is called exactly once at startup by
``native/index.ts``, and ``reset()`` is test-only. Test-authored races
that violate isolation are the caller's contract, not this module's
correctness problem.
- Revert to round-1 logic (generation guard on shared-state mutations only)
- Remove the "stale hook self-heal" adversarial test — it was locking in
behavior we've decided not to guarantee
- Add explicit contract documentation to `dispatcher.ts` and to the
adversarial test file's top docstring so the design decision is

Dispatcher suite: 14/14 pass (was 15 with the deleted self-heal test).
The round-1 generation guard is retained and still tested.

* release: v0.9.6 review round 4 — clarify dispatcher concurrency contract
cubic P3 catch: my round-3 wording "reset()/setRegistrationHook() MUST
NOT be called while a call is in flight" is contradicted by this same
PR's adversarial tests — which do exactly that on purpose, to exercise
the generation guard on the .then handlers. The wording was too broad.
Rewrote to distinguish two claims:
• What IS guaranteed: shared-state mutation (`_ensureRegistered` /
`_registrationPromise`) by a stale attempt's .then handler is
blocked by the generation guard. Concurrent reset/setRegistrationHook
is safe wrt that.
• What is NOT: late `Dispatcher.register(...)` calls from a stale
hook BODY (that resumes after replacement) overwrite whatever the
newer hook wrote. No self-heal — chased twice, recreated the
guard's race both times.
• Why: production never triggers late-write clobber (hook set once
at startup, reset() test-only).
Wording-only. No code change.

* release: v0.9.6 review round 5 — CHANGELOG + test-isolation fixes
Addresses three cubic P2 findings on release/v0.9.6:
- **CHANGELOG L10 + bullet (e)/(f)**: my theme + bullets listed
`migration` and `compare` as valid `check --checks` lanes. They are not
— `VALID_CHECKS` in `check-helpers.ts` only accepts
{lint, validate, safety, policy, pii, semantic, grade}. The migration
and compare correctness fixes belong to the `altimate-core-migration`
and `altimate-core-compare` TOOLS (agent tools, not check lanes).
Moved them to their own bullets and dropped them from the check-lane
list in the theme.
- **Test env-var teardown**: `afterAll` unconditionally deleted
`ALTIMATE_TELEMETRY_DISABLED`, wiping any pre-existing value an outer
suite may have set. Now captures the prior value in `beforeAll` and
restores it (or deletes if none was set).
- **Concurrent-failure test coverage**: added a companion to the
concurrent-success test that fires 20 concurrent calls against a
rejecting hook and asserts every one rejects with the SAME error
instance (proving dedup held across the failure path) with the hook
body having run exactly once.
15/15 dispatcher tests pass (14 prior + 1 new).
