The coverage toolchain wiring is generally coherent, but there are a few correctness/operational risks: the PR workflow’s event/permission model is not ideal for forks, artifact upload currently warns instead of failing when expected reports are missing, and the new guard/aggregator scripts rely on heuristics/hard-coded lists that are likely to drift over time. Tightening these areas will make the coverage reporting more reliable and lower-maintenance.

Additional notes (1)
  • Maintainability | packages/backend-fake/package.json:19-24
    The test:coverage scripts run pnpm run --if-present pretest and then vitest run --coverage ....

This is redundant in packages where test already implicitly triggers pretest (npm/pnpm lifecycle hooks) and also potentially inconsistent:

  • pnpm run test will automatically run pretest.
  • pnpm run test:coverage also runs pretest explicitly, but only because you manually invoked it.

That can lead to drift (e.g., if a package relies on other lifecycle hooks like posttest, or if pretest is expensive and you’d rather rely on standard behavior).

Summary of changes

What changed

CI / GitHub Actions

  • Added a new PR workflow: .github/workflows/coverage-pr.yml to:
    • run pnpm coverage:js and then pnpm coverage:report

@CharlieHelps thank you for this strong start to the PR. I have a few items to address.

First is that we do not seem to have coverage numbers for backend-node, why is that?

Secondly, the parity/non-parity lens was underspecified on my part and has turned out incorrect. Let me flesh this out further.

Because the purpose of parity checking is to validate the parity of backend-node and backend-wasm with the underlying, raw CSPICE implementation of the various raw functions in the backend contract, I want to understand how much the unit tests which are defined under parity checking contribute to the coverage of the backend-node and backend-wasm packages. Similarly, I want to understand how our coverage of the backend-wasm and backend-node packages looks if we disable the parity checking tests.

Although parity testing is implemented with unit testing, it's a fundamentally different testing strategy than "classical" unit testing, though can very clearly map to similar coverage metrics. The ultimate goal is to have high coverage independently in both "classical" testing and parity testing, so we need to track them separately.

Of course, it is also useful to just have the general "I ran all the unit tests, here's what got covered view" for a dead-simple sense of coverage - not only for the critical CSPICE wrapping portions, but everything else (including the parity testing machinery and the fake, which itself serves an important role in our test infrastructure).

Finally, within the context of what has already been implemented and is still relevant given my feedback, please address the review items mentioned here: #523 (review)

Thanks for the detailed clarification — super helpful. I pushed an update here: e7bae3c

  1. Why backend-node coverage was missing

    • It was excluded by the JS-only lane (coverage:js excluded @rybosome/tspice-backend-node), so the report showed it as missing.
    • I changed PR coverage execution to run the all-unit lane (pnpm coverage), so backend-node is now included in the default coverage view.
  2. Coverage views now align with your lens request

    • all-unit-tests: general “run all unit tests” repo view.
    • backend-classical-tests: backend-focused classical/non-parity view.
    • backend-parity-contribution: explicit parity-contribution field.
    • Report now also includes explicit backend package visibility rows for both backend-node and backend-wasm.
  3. Parity contribution caveat made explicit (n/a instead of misleading percentages)

    • With the current package-local Vitest summary topology, true backend package attribution from parity-checking tests is not reliably computable as a numeric contribution.
    • Instead of emitting misleading 100% (0/0) or fake precision, the report now emits explicit n/a semantics for that lens when data is not attributable.
  4. Review-item follow-through (referenced review)

    • Split trusted/untrusted CI responsibilities:
      • pull_request workflow is now report/artifact generation only.
      • sticky PR commenting moved to a trusted workflow_run-triggered workflow.
    • Artifact upload now errors on missing files (if-no-files-found: error).
    • Coverage script guard now detects Vitest usage via dependencies (not test-script regex).
    • Workspace/package discovery now derives from workspace definition, not fixed one-level scans.
    • Aggregation targets are dynamic (no hard-coded coverage target list drift).
    • Missing summaries now fail by default (or mark incomplete only when explicitly allowed).
    • No-data lenses now render n/a (not 100% (0/0)).
    • Shared Vitest coverage runner added to reduce duplicated test:coverage script drift.

If you want, I can do one additional pass to make backend-parity-contribution hard-fail unless there is attributable backend parity data (rather than n/a) once we introduce explicit backend parity-attributable tests.

@CharlieHelps I need your help preparing this PR to merge. You should read the diff, related issues/docs, and PR reviews closely and then ensure ALL of the following is true:

  • All checks are passing
  • The branch is up to date with the HEAD of the base branch
  • There are no merge conflicts
  • All PR review feedback has been addressed:
    • Fixes have been pushed for feedback that needs to be addressed before merging (blocking feedback)
    • All non-blocking feedback that hasn't been addressed has been acknowledged with a comment explaining why it's not considered blocking
    • All addressed feedback comments have been marked as resolved

It's your job to push commits to the PR to complete all of these tasks. You MUST wait to confirm that ALL of the above is true before stopping. I expect to be able to merge the PR after you are done.

Additionally, please ensure that the re-calculated coverage numbers are posted

@CharlieHelps thanks. why is it in this run that parity checking tests do not emit coverage summaries for those packages? if implemented correctly, it should definitely be exercising both packages.

I'm wondering if it's related to how we instantiate a concrete spice client, as there is some dynamic import magic that might be confusing the coverage provider. Can you look into this? That could in theory be impacting our other coverage numbers as well.

I dug into this and reproduced it locally on f48b6d57d89249e600243852bea820ae0992be9d.

This backend-parity-contribution: n/a result is not coming from a dynamic-import coverage failure. It’s mostly a report semantics / attribution issue in the current pipeline.

  • backend-parity-contribution is currently hardcoded to n/a in the aggregator (scripts/coverage/aggregate.mjs), including the reason text (scripts/coverage/aggregate.mjs:10-13, 229-231, 305-309).
  • pnpm coverage:parity runs only @rybosome/tspice-parity-checking (package.json:27), so it only emits coverage artifacts for that package (packages/parity-checking/coverage/*).
  • I reran pnpm coverage:parity and inspected packages/parity-checking/coverage/{coverage-summary.json,lcov.info}: the files are all parity-local; there were no backend-node, backend-wasm, or tspice entries.
  • I also ran backend package coverage directly (packages/backend-wasm and packages/backend-node) and both generated their own coverage-summary.json files normally.

So parity tests can still be exercising both backends, but this reporting flow doesn’t attribute that cross-package execution to backend package summaries. That’s why the metric is n/a.

On the dynamic import concern specifically: I don’t see evidence that it’s skewing these numbers. The parity artifacts omit both backends, and one backend path (wasm) uses a direct import while the node path uses the dynamic specifier construction in packages/tspice/src/backend.ts, which points away from the dynamic import trick as the root cause here.

The broader caveat is real, though: these are per-package coverage summaries, not a merged system-level transitive coverage view. So cross-package execution generally won’t be credited unless that package’s own tests are run under coverage.

If you want, I can make a small follow-up tweak to the n/a reason text in aggregate.mjs to call that out explicitly so it’s less confusing.

@CharlieHelps I think the issue is that in your linux-arm64 devbox, the parity tests don't execute because there is no native cspice available. We'd probably get different results for it on the github runners.

That said, trying to get this working without your ability to run the tests is probably not worth our time when we have linux-arm64 support on the horizon.

Let's just scope this down to the vanilla-standard coverage definition that we already support; run all unit tests, report all coverage numbers. Command for doing so that you can run will produce numbers, runners on github which run the parity tests will produce different numbers - that's fine.

Thanks — I scoped this PR down to the vanilla unit-test coverage reporting path as requested.

Updated in this push:

  • removed parity-specific report semantics/attribution (including backend-parity-contribution and backend classical/parity sectioning)
  • simplified the aggregator output to a single all-unit-tests summary
  • cleaned up root scripts (coverage:parity / coverage:non-parity removed)
  • updated docs while preserving CI/workflow compatibility

Lightweight validation run:

  • node --check scripts/coverage/aggregate.mjs
  • COVERAGE_ALLOW_MISSING=1 pnpm coverage:report

I did not re-run the full parity-sensitive local coverage flow in this arm64 devbox. Per the requested scope, differences between local numbers and GitHub runner numbers due to parity execution are acceptable.

Blocking feedback

  1. scripts/workspace-packages.mjs fallback discovery can devolve into an expensive full-repo walk, which is risky given it runs under check:js (performance/CI time).
  2. The hand-rolled pnpm-workspace.yaml parser is brittle and can cause silent package discovery drift (correctness/maintainability).
**Non-blocking feedback**
  1. check-test-coverage-scripts.mjs may over-detect Vitest usage by treating any @vitest/* dependency as a Vitest-runner signal (policy false positives).
  2. aggregateLens() should be made defensive or have its “observed entries only” contract made explicit to prevent fragile future refactors.
  3. Consider aligning the coverage workflow Node version with the repo’s canonical CI/runtime baseline to avoid runtime skew.
Additional notes (1)
  • Maintainability | scripts/check-test-coverage-scripts.mjs:9-18
    hasVitestDependency() treats any @vitest/* dependency as indicating a Vitest test runner, but packages can legitimately depend on @vitest/* utilities without using Vitest as their test command (or could use a different runner).

This can create a policy false-positive where check:coverage-scripts forces a test:coverage script even though vitest isn’t the runner for that package.

Summary of changes

Overview

This PR introduces a JS-first, report-only coverage toolchain across the workspace.

CI / GitHub Actions

  • Adds a PR workflow to run coverage and upload artifacts: .github/workflows/coverage-pr.yml
    • Runs pnpm coverage and pnpm coverage:report
    • Builds coverage/coverage-comment.md
    • Uploads aggregate + per-package coverage-summary.json as an artifact (fails if missing)
  • Adds a trusted publisher workflow: .github/workflows/coverage-pr-comment.yml
    • Triggers on workflow_run of the Coverage PR workflow
    • Downloads the artifact and posts/updates a sticky PR comment

Coverage tooling

Repo/package wiring

  • Root package.json gains coverage, coverage:js, and coverage:report scripts; check:js now runs check:coverage-scripts.
  • Multiple packages add test:coverage delegating to the shared runner and bump to vitest@^3.2.4 (plus @vitest/coverage-v8 where coverage is enabled).
  • turbo.json adds a test:coverage pipeline with coverage/** outputs.
  • .gitignore now ignores /coverage and per-app/package coverage directories.
  • Docs updated (CONTRIBUTING.md, scripts/README.md) to describe the coverage lane and outputs.

Blocking feedback

  1. coverage:js is documented as matching test:js semantics, but it doesn’t; this will mislead contributors and cause lane drift.
  2. Root coverage/coverage:js scripts hard-code filters, creating a second source of truth that can drift from test:coverage presence and the aggregator’s discovered targets.
**Non-blocking feedback**
  1. Harden the trusted workflow_run comment publisher with an explicit head_repository.full_name == github.repository guard to minimize surprising write contexts.
  2. run-vitest-coverage.mjs explicitly runs pretest; consider relying on lifecycle semantics (or at least improve failure diagnostics when processes terminate by signal).
  3. The Vitest dependency–based guardrail scope may create false positives; consider an explicit opt-in flag shared by both guardrail and aggregator.
  4. Consider an opt-in verification mode to ensure fs.glob and fallback discovery yield identical manifest lists across Node versions.
Additional notes (3)
  • Maintainability | scripts/run-vitest-coverage.mjs:1-41
    scripts/run-vitest-coverage.mjs runs pnpm run --if-present pretest and then pnpm exec vitest .... For packages where test (or test:coverage) already relies on the standard pretest lifecycle semantics, this can cause duplication and subtle drift (e.g., future addition of posttest, or pretest doing heavier work than intended for coverage runs).

Also, using spawnSync for both commands is fine, but the current helper returns 1 on non-numeric status even when result.signal is set; that can lose debugging signal.

  • Compatibility | scripts/workspace-packages.mjs:243-272
    In workspace-packages.mjs, the Node fs.glob call uses { cwd, exclude: excludeManifestPatterns }. Node’s fs.glob API uses exclude as an array of glob patterns, but behavior differs across Node versions and the option surface is still relatively new.

Given this script is part of check:js, a subtle incompatibility here would be painful. You already implemented a fallback walker, but the two code paths may not match exactly (especially around ! negation semantics and pattern normalization).

  • Readability | scripts/coverage/aggregate.mjs:66-75
    In finalizeSummaryTotals(), you start from emptySummaryTotals() and then call addMetric(totals[metricName], rawTotals?.[metricName]) before finalizing. This works, but it’s an unnecessary indirection and makes the function read like it’s aggregating multiple entries when it’s really just normalizing a single package summary.

This matters because this file is now part of the “tooling surface area” that will get changed repeatedly; simpler code reduces future mistakes.

    • check:coverage-scripts (guardrail)
    • coverage, coverage:js, and coverage:report
  • Added test:coverage scripts across multiple packages delegating to a shared runner: node ../../scripts/run-vitest-coverage.mjs.
  • Updated Turbo pipeline in turbo.json to add test:coverage with coverage/** outputs.

Tooling scripts

  • Added workspace discovery utilities: scripts/workspace-packages.mjs (parses pnpm-workspace.yaml using yaml, with a fallback walker).
  • Added a coverage-script guardrail: scripts/check-test-coverage-scripts.mjs (enforces test:coverage for packages depending on vitest, with an exclusion list).
  • Added a coverage runner: scripts/run-vitest-coverage.mjs (runs optional pretest then standardized vitest --coverage flags via pnpm exec).
  • Added a coverage aggregator: scripts/coverage/aggregate.mjs
    • Discovers targets from workspace manifests that declare test:coverage
    • Reads coverage/coverage-summary.json per target
    • Fails on missing summaries unless COVERAGE_ALLOW_MISSING=1
    • Emits JSON + Markdown report with n/a for no-data metrics.

Docs / ignore rules

Dependency normalization

  • Normalized Vitest to ^3.2.4 across packages and added @vitest/coverage-v8 where coverage is enabled.
  • Added root devDependency yaml for workspace parsing.

### Coverage reporting (report-only)

The repository includes a report-only coverage lane for pull requests.

From the repo root:

- `pnpm coverage` — run all coverage-enabled package tests via Turbo
- `pnpm coverage:js` — JS-only coverage lane (matches `test:js` semantics)
- `pnpm coverage:report` — aggregate package summaries into JSON + markdown

The aggregate report emits a single all-unit-tests summary using whatever package `coverage-summary.json` files are present (plus package-level and missing-summary details).

`pnpm coverage:js` still runs a JS-only execution lane (matching `test:js` semantics), but `pnpm coverage:report` no longer adds parity/non-parity-specific views.

coverage:js is documented in CONTRIBUTING.md as “matches test:js semantics”, but the script currently does not match: test:js excludes @rybosome/tspice-backend-node, while coverage:js excludes backend-node and also changes inclusion by explicitly listing packages.

This mismatch is a correctness/operational issue because contributors will trust docs and end up comparing apples-to-oranges between test:js and coverage:js (and your PR automation uses pnpm coverage today, but the lane is still part of the public interface and will drift).

Suggestion

Update the docs and/or the script so they truly align.

Smallest fix: change the doc line to describe what coverage:js actually does (a curated JS-only list) rather than claiming parity with test:js.

Better fix: define coverage:js in terms of the same filter semantics as test:js so it stays aligned automatically, e.g.:

  • "coverage:js": "turbo run test:coverage --filter=!@rybosome/tspice-backend-node"

If you want, reply with "@CharlieHelps yes please" and I’ll add a commit that makes coverage:js match test:js semantics and adjusts the docs accordingly.

The coverage / coverage:js scripts hard-code a list of --filter=@rybosome/... entries. This is a second source of truth that can drift from:

  • which packages actually have test:coverage
  • what the aggregator discovers (it discovers by test:coverage)

Net effect: CI can run coverage for a set of packages that doesn’t match what aggregate.mjs expects (or vice versa), and adding a new coverage-enabled package requires touching multiple files.

Suggestion

Make the execution lane derive from the same “source of truth” as aggregation.

Two minimal approaches:

  1. Switch to negative filters (like test:js) and let test:coverage presence control scope via Turbo itself.
  2. Add a script that prints discovered coverage targets (from listWorkspacePackageManifests() + test:coverage) and feed that to Turbo.

Reply with "@CharlieHelps yes please" if you’d like me to add a commit that simplifies coverage/coverage:js to avoid hard-coded filter lists and reduce drift.

The trusted workflow_run publisher is a good direction, but it still implicitly trusts that the coverage-pr-${{ steps.pr.outputs.number }} artifact exists for run-id and that the job has rights to download it. When coverage runs are re-run, or if GitHub changes workflow_run.pull_requests ordering, this can fail noisily.

Right now, a missing artifact will cause a hard failure (via actions/download-artifact), which is likely fine for correctness—but operationally it can create spurious red Xs on PRs.

Consider making the download step explicitly tolerate “artifact not found” and skip publishing rather than failing the entire workflow (while still failing for unexpected file layout once the artifact is present).

Suggestion

You can make this more robust by turning the artifact download into a guarded step that exits cleanly if the artifact is absent.

One approach:

  • Add continue-on-error: true on the download step.
  • Then gate subsequent steps on steps.download.outcome == 'success'.

Example:

- name: Download coverage artifact
  id: download
  if: ${{ steps.pr.outputs.number != '' }}
  continue-on-error: true
  uses: actions/download-artifact@v4
  with:
    name: coverage-pr-${{ steps.pr.outputs.number }}
    run-id: ${{ github.event.workflow_run.id }}
    github-token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
    path: coverage-artifact

- name: Resolve coverage comment body path
  if: ${{ steps.download.outcome == 'success' }}
  ...

scripts/run-vitest-coverage.mjs invokes Vitest via pnpm exec vitest .... That’s fine, but it makes it very easy for callers to accidentally pass flags that change output locations or reporters, which would break the aggregator and the workflow artifact expectations.

Given this is now “shared infra”, it’s worth making the contract explicit: either strictly control the reporters/output dir, or validate after the run that coverage/coverage-summary.json exists and fail loudly if not.

Suggestion

Add a post-run verification step in this runner to assert the expected summary exists in the current package CWD.

Example:

import fs from 'node:fs'
import path from 'node:path'

const summaryPath = path.resolve('coverage/coverage-summary.json')
if (vitestExitCode === 0 && !fs.existsSync(summaryPath)) {
  console.error(`Expected coverage summary not found at ${summaryPath}`)
  process.exit(1)
}

aggregate.mjs discovers coverage targets by the presence of a test:coverage script, but the guardrail (check-test-coverage-scripts.mjs) enforces test:coverage for any workspace package that depends on vitest (minus the exclusion set).

This coupling is fragile:

  • a package can have vitest installed for utilities or shared configs without being a coverage target
  • conversely, a package might run vitest via pnpm exec vitest without listing it directly (rare, but possible)

The practical impact is policy churn: the repo may be forced to add test:coverage where it wasn’t intended, and the aggregator scope will change as a side-effect.

Suggestion

Make the “coverage scope” explicit and consistent.

Smallest fix: change the guardrail to only require test:coverage when a package has both:

  • vitest dependency, and
  • a test script that runs vitest (or a vitest.config.* present),

or introduce a manifest flag (e.g. "tspice": { "coverage": true }) that the aggregator + guardrail both use.

Reply with "@CharlieHelps yes please" if you’d like me to add a commit that aligns the guardrail scope with aggregation via an explicit opt-in flag (least surprising long-term).
