🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
The fallback does not cover a setpriv capability-drop failure.
The setpriv --help probe only shows that the binary exists. Dropping the bounding set needs CAP_SETPCAP. A container root without that capability makes setpriv exit non-zero with an EPERM error. This is not a spawn error, so dropped.error is unset. Line 86 then exits with the setpriv status, and npm test fails without running Vitest. The header comment promises a fallback to plain vitest run on any guard miss.
Probe the real capability drop with a no-op command. Fall back to runVitest() if the probe exits non-zero.

Season 4 CLI Improvement Bonus
Discord username: 0xfestac
What does this PR do?
Fixes a set of environment-dependent test failures and gaps in the test suite,
with no intended change to product behavior:
6 permission-denied tests failed in capability-holding environments.
Tests in
src/commands/test.test.ts,src/commands/doctor.test.ts, andsrc/lib/secret-file.test.tsassumedchmodSync(path, 0o000)makes a file(or directory) unreadable. That premise is false for processes holding
CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE(typical in Docker containers and root/user-namespacesandboxes), where the kernel skips permission checks, no
EACCESisraised, and the tests fail downstream. Added
test/helpers/fsModeEnforcement.ts, which probes once per process whetherthe OS actually enforces mode bits, and extended the existing skip guards
to skip cleanly (with a documented reason) where the premise is impossible,
while still running everywhere a real
EACCEScan be produced.The remaining 8 skipped tests now run by default.
npm test: a newscripts/run-tests.mjsdetectsCAP_DAC_OVERRIDEin/proc/self/statusand, on Linux only, re-execs vitest under
setprivwithCAP_DAC_OVERRIDE/CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCHdropped from thebounding/inheritable/ambient sets, so the kernel enforces mode bits again
and the probe reports
true. Falls back to a plainvitest runonmacOS/Windows/non-capability environments or if
setprivis unavailable,so
npm testnever gets harder to run. CLI args pass through.resolveBundleDirtests insrc/lib/bundle.test.tswere gated onwin32even though only part of their assertion (node'sisAbsoluterecognizing
C:\…) is platform-bound. Exported the pure-stringstripTrailingSeparatorsfromsrc/lib/bundle.ts(no behavior change)and rewrote the tests as always-running assertions against it; the
win32-bound part remains covered by the Windows CI leg.
A subprocess test timed out on loaded machines.
test/billing-refusal-render.subprocess.test.tsspawns the built CLI twiceper case (up to ~20s of legitimate
spawnSyncruntime) but inheritedvitest's 5s default per-test timeout, so cases were killed as timeouts under
contention. Set an explicit 30s per-test timeout, matching the repo's
existing convention in
test/cli.subprocess.test.ts. The same latent gap intest/tunnel-limit-render.subprocess.test.tsandtest/history-retention.subprocess.test.tsgot the same 30s timeout.Related issue

Notes for reviewers
No product behavior change. The only non-test edit is exporting the
existing pure-string helper
stripTrailingSeparatorsfromsrc/lib/bundle.ts(no logic change). Everything else is test infrastructure.

file went from 4/6 cases failing with
Test timed out in 5000ms→ 6 passed (6);full suite still 4,588 passed | 0 skipped | 0 failed.
Why not gate on euid? The
run-tests.mjscapability check deliberatelyreads
CapEfffrom/proc/self/statusrather than the effective uid, becauseuser-namespace sandboxes hold the full capability set as a non-root user.
Skips vs. failures. The skip guard is the fallback for environments where
the capability cannot be dropped (e.g.
setprivmissing); the primary path(
setprivre-exec) makes the tests run for real.Please confirm before merge:
npm run lint,npm run format:check, andnpm run typecheck— I left those unchecked as I don't have output for themfrom your environment.
