opened on Aug 30, 2026

Recorded while measuring the disarm shape for the late-console teardown card (measurement methodology and per-suite table live there, in the os-dev-report comment). Filing the volume itself as its own observation, because the disarm makes it VISIBLE where it used to be silently discarded.

The measurement (origin/main 240aad5, all 72 vitest-running packages, one full run each)

  • 8,066 intercepted console RPCs per full-repo test run, carrying 61,086 lines. Before the repo-wide disableConsoleIntercept sweep these were serialized to the vitest main thread and then DISCARDED by the non-TTY default reporter (silent: 'passed-only'); after it they write to worker stdout and land in CI shard logs.
  • Distribution, not a mean: packages/qa/dogfood alone carries 41,115 lines (67%); packages/objectql 5,077; packages/rest 2,902; packages/verify 2,544; packages/runtime 1,987; packages/cli 1,563 — top 6 = 90%. 33 of 72 suites emit zero.
  • The bulk of the heavy suites' output is [Registry] Registered object/namespace ... registration chatter and engine lifecycle INFO lines emitted at default log level while apps boot in tests.

Why this is a logger-default question, not an interception question

The showcase disarm docblock (examples/app-showcase/vitest.config.ts) already records this boundary: quieting the chatter is a question about @objectstack/objectql's (and the registry's) default log level under test, separate from the teardown-race mechanism. Re-arming interception would not remove the cost — it would only hide it again while paying an RPC round-trip per write and re-exposing suites to the teardown race.

What a fix could look like (for triage, not prescribed here)

  • A quieter default level for the registry/engine loggers when running under vitest (process.env.VITEST), or
  • a documented OS_LOG_LEVEL default in test harnesses, or
  • deliberate demotion of per-object registration lines to debug.

No urgency claimed: the cost today is CI log volume (one shard log grows by ~41k lines), not correctness.

                      Recorded while measuring the disarm shape for the late-console teardown card (measurement methodology and per-suite table live there, in the os-dev-report comment). Filing the volume itself as its own observation, because the disarm makes it VISIBLE where it used to be silently discarded.
                      The measurement (origin/main 240aad5, all 72 vitest-running packages, one full run each)
                      • 8,066 intercepted console RPCs per full-repo test run, carrying 61,086 lines. Before the repo-wide disableConsoleIntercept sweep these were serialized to the vitest main thread and then DISCARDED by the non-TTY default reporter (silent: 'passed-only'); after it they write to worker stdout and land in CI shard logs.
                      • Distribution, not a mean: packages/qa/dogfood alone carries 41,115 lines (67%); packages/objectql 5,077; packages/rest 2,902; packages/verify 2,544; packages/runtime 1,987; packages/cli 1,563 — top 6 = 90%. 33 of 72 suites emit zero.
                      • The bulk of the heavy suites' output is [Registry] Registered object/namespace ... registration chatter and engine lifecycle INFO lines emitted at default log level while apps boot in tests.
                      Why this is a logger-default question, not an interception question
                      The showcase disarm docblock (examples/app-showcase/vitest.config.ts) already records this boundary: quieting the chatter is a question about @objectstack/objectql's (and the registry's) default log level under test, separate from the teardown-race mechanism. Re-arming interception would not remove the cost — it would only hide it again while paying an RPC round-trip per write and re-exposing suites to the teardown race.
                      What a fix could look like (for triage, not prescribed here)
                      • A quieter default level for the registry/engine loggers when running under vitest (process.env.VITEST), or
                      • a documented OS_LOG_LEVEL default in test harnesses, or
                      • deliberate demotion of per-object registration lines to debug.
                      No urgency claimed: the cost today is CI log volume (one shard log grows by ~41k lines), not correctness.
