This commit replaces the stubbed MLflow client with a new helper function, _create_run_with_config, to manage MLflow run creation and configuration loading in tests. The updated tests now directly utilize the MLflow API for logging artifacts, enhancing clarity and reducing complexity in the test setup. This change improves the maintainability of the test suite while ensuring accurate simulation of MLflow interactions.

Code Review for PR #97

Thank you for this contribution! The config loading feature is a useful addition. Below is a detailed review.

Critical Issues

1. Feature Not Actually Used (High Priority)

The new _get_config() function is defined but never called. The managed_run decorator at line 599 still uses get_config() directly.

Impact: The entire load_configs feature won't work until this is fixed.
Fix: Replace get_config(args, kwargs) with _get_config(args, kwargs) in managed_run decorator.

2. SQL Injection Vulnerability (Security)

Line 129 constructs MLflow filter strings with unsanitized user input:
filter_string=f"attributes.run_name = '{run_name}'"

Risk: Special characters in run_name could break queries or enable injection attacks.
Fix: Sanitize input by escaping single quotes.

Code Quality Issues

3. Missing Error Handling

  • No handling for MLflow API failures (network issues, timeouts)
  • No try-catch around OmegaConf.load at line 145
  • No verification that downloaded artifact exists

4. Type Annotation Issues

Line 147 has type: ignore which suppresses type checking. Per CLAUDE.md, code must pass pyright in standard mode.

5. Incomplete Docstrings

Both _load_config and _get_config have minimal docstrings that don't follow Google style required by CLAUDE.md.

Test Coverage Issues

6. Insufficient Test Coverage

Tests only cover happy paths. Missing:

  • Missing experiment_name/run_name (should raise ValueError)
  • Non-existent experiment/run
  • Missing config keys in source artifact
  • Invalid tracking_uri
  • Empty strings for keys
  • Run names with special characters (SQL injection test)

Add negative test cases to meet 80% diff-cover requirement.

Performance Considerations

7. Repeated MLflow Client Creation

New MlflowClient created for each load_config entry. Cache by tracking URI for efficiency.

8. Synchronous Downloads

All downloads happen sequentially. Consider parallel downloads for multiple entries.

Documentation Issues

9. Demo Config Invalid References

Example config references non-existent runs. Use placeholders with explanatory comments instead.

Positive Aspects

  • Clean separation of concerns
  • Good use of context managers
  • Proper config cloning with resolve=False
  • Smart merge preserving local overrides
  • Well-designed test helper

Summary Checklist

Must Fix Before Merge:

  • Wire up _get_config() in managed_run decorator (line 599)
  • Fix SQL injection in filter_string (line 129)
  • Add proper Google-style docstrings
  • Fix type: ignore comment (line 147)

Should Fix:

  • Add error handling for network/parsing failures
  • Add negative test cases
  • Update demo config with placeholders
  • Add SQL injection test

Nice to Have:

  • Cache MLflow clients by tracking URI
  • Add integration tests
  • Improve README examples

Overall Assessment

Valuable feature with solid architecture, but needs critical fixes:

  1. Feature must be hooked up to actually work
  2. Security vulnerability must be addressed
  3. Test coverage needs expansion

Once resolved, this will be a great addition!
