Fixes #434 — clears the baseline 8 aggregate failures (api-host-supervisors-fallback) that were caused by module-singleton / port / DB conflicts under bun test src/.

Draft — do not merge. Reviewers: 通信龙 (lead) + 副指挥 (coordinator, independent verification). Author does not self-approve.

Independent of #436 / security/435-…. This branch does not touch server/src/db-adapter.ts and does not cherry-pick #435 — docs may cross-reference #435 but do not assume it has merged.

What changed

Minimal production seam + Bun-authored aggregate runner + 2-suite refactor.

Production seam — server/src/index.ts

  • Extract the sole Bun.serve({...}) call into export function bootServer(opts?: { port?: number; hostname?: string }) returning the real Bun.Server. opts.port ?? PORT and opts.hostname ?? HOST use ?? on purpose — || would swallow a legitimate 0 (副指挥 硬点 1).
  • Wrap all post-serve top-level side effects (retention sweeper, stale sweeper, shutdown handlers, banner, vault check) in if (import.meta.main) { … }. Production bun run src/index.ts still boots identically.
  • Banner now prints ${server.hostname}:${server.port} — effective bind. Kernel-assigned ports show through cleanly.
  • Zero reformatting of the ~1850-line Bun.serve object literal — the diff stays surgical (reviewable diff guarantee).

Sanity: bun run src/index.ts boots with correct banner and effective port; bootServer({ port: 0 }) from a test binds an OS-assigned ephemeral port and returns it via server.port.

Test refactor (2 files, isolated_server kind)

  • src/api-host-supervisors-fallback.test.ts — drop PORT = 18000 + Math.random() * 1000 + process.env.PORT; call bootServer({ port: 0, hostname: "127.0.0.1" }) in beforeAll; finalize BASE from server.port; call server.stop(true) in afterAll; sweep DB dir (WAL + SHM together).
  • src/uploads-http.test.ts — same pattern.

Individual results:

suite before after
api-host-supervisors-fallback.test.ts 8 fail (fetch → unbound port) 8 / 0 / 30
uploads-http.test.ts pass (won the race) 10 / 0 / 26

Aggregate runner — server/scripts/test-runner.ts + test-manifest.ts

  • Bun-authored, no Node runtime dependency.
  • Serial by construction — no --concurrency=N flag ships here (副指挥 硬点 3).
  • CLI: --suite=<manifest-path> (exact match only) and --verbose. No glob patterns — manifest is source of truth (硬点 4).
  • Manifest is exhaustive: ISOLATED_SERVER_SUITES + SHARED_UNIT_SUITES cover every *.test.ts under server/src/ and server/scripts/. On start the runner:
    • checks for duplicates first (copy-paste guard)
    • then does set-equality vs the actual filesystem
    • hard-fails BEFORE any suite runs on any mismatch. Verified locally: dropping a stray src/stray.test.ts on disk gives ❌ manifest / disk mismatch (issue #434 rule 4): unregistered on disk: src/stray-manifest-canary.test.ts and exit 2.
  • Per-child env: explicit allowlist (PATH, TMPDIR, TERM, LANG, LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE, CI, GITHUB_ACTIONS, SHELL, USER, LOGNAME). Everything else dropped. DATABASE_URL deleted twice (after allowlist copy, after suite overrides) — belt+braces on top of #435's guard.
  • Per-child fresh mkdtempSync for HOME, COMMHUB_DB, COMMHUB_UPLOADS_DIR, TMPDIR. On exit, rmSync the whole dir (sweeps db, db-wal, db-shm in one shot).
  • NODE_ENV=test forced.
  • Exit code = truth. Count parse only feeds the aggregate summary; a green count-line can never green-wash a non-zero child exit.
  • stdout/stderr continuously drained (no buffered deadlock); --verbose streams live, otherwise a tail is printed on failure.
  • SIGINT/SIGTERM handlers forward to every live child then clean up temp dirs before propagating.

Runner self-test — scripts/test-runner-self.test.ts

package.json

  • "test": "bun run scripts/test-runner.ts" — canonical gate.

  • "test:raw": "…stderr warning… && bun test src/" — diagnostic-only. Running it prints:

    ⚠️  test:raw is diagnostic-only — it runs bun test src/ in a SINGLE process, which reproduces the module-singleton / port / DB conflicts documented in #434. NOT a CI gate. For canonical results run: bun run test
    

docs/tests/aggregate-runner.md

Short operator SOP: canonical command, manifest rule, test:raw warning, reproducibility check, cross-refs to #435 / #436.

Reproducibility — 3× consecutive canonical runs

Every run identical:

  total pass:    526
  total fail:      0
  total expects: 1555

  [isolated_server] src/api-host-supervisors-fallback.test.ts   exit=0  8/0/30
  [isolated_server] src/uploads-http.test.ts                     exit=0 10/0/26
  [shared_unit]     (28 files)                                   exit=0 508/0/1499

526 pass = 515 baseline + 8 tests newly-reaching (previously counted as fails) + 3 runner-self tests. 1555 expects = 1518 baseline + 30 + 26 + 7 runner-self + additional expects from newly-reaching assertions in api-host-supervisors-fallback. Zero fail, zero ConnectionRefused, zero DB guard trip, zero port collision.

Acceptance checklist (issue #434)

  • baseline-equivalent aggregate server suite reaches every integration assertion and is green
  • per-file and aggregate runs use the intended temp DBs, proven by paths/fixtures (runner assigns via mkdtempSync; test refactor uses server.port)
  • no port collision, connection-refused, timeout, or DB guard failures
  • repeat the aggregate command at least three times with identical pass/fail counts

Alignment with the 10 hardline constraints

  1. ✅ Clean branch from origin/main d418862; not cherry-picked from security(test): reject inherited DATABASE_URL before adapter construction #435. db-adapter.ts untouched.
  2. ✅ Canonical test script runs the Bun-authored runner; explicit delete env.DATABASE_URL; independent COMMHUB_DB/HOME/TMPDIR per child.
  3. test:raw diagnostic-only + loud stderr warning.
  4. ✅ Manifest exhaustive; runner enforces set-equality with a hard-fail before any test runs.
  5. ✅ OS ephemeral port: 0 inside the child via bootServer({ port: 0 }); parent never picks a random slot.
  6. mkdtemp DB per child; rmSync recursive cleans db/db-wal/db-shm.
  7. ✅ Exit code is the gate; counts are summary only; SIGINT/SIGTERM forwarded + temp cleanup.
  8. ✅ Serial (concurrency=1); 3× identical; zero fail.
  9. ✅ Runner unsets DATABASE_URL; runner-self test proves child sees UNSET even when parent leaks fake-prod.
  10. ✅ No assertion changes; if isolation surfaces a real business fail the runner surfaces the child stderr tail and non-zero exit rather than covering it.

Scope constraints

  • Do not merge, do not deploy.
  • Author does not self-approve.
  • Reviewers: 通信龙 (lead) + 副指挥 (independent verification).
  • #435 / #436 untouched. This branch never edits db-adapter.ts.

…runs

Baseline `bun test src/` on d418862 reported 515 pass / 8 fail / 1518
expects. The 8 failures were api-host-supervisors-fallback fetch()s
against an unbound port — one Bun.serve singleton wins the port when
two integration suites import ./index.js in the same process, and
downstream tests race a random 18000-slot picked parent-side (TOCTOU).

Fix: minimal production seam + a Bun-authored aggregate runner that
runs each real-server suite in its own child.

## Production seam (src/index.ts)

- Extract the sole `Bun.serve({...})` call into
  `export function bootServer(opts?: { port?: number; hostname?: string })`
  that returns the real `Bun.Server`. `opts.port ?? PORT` and
  `opts.hostname ?? HOST` use `??` on purpose — `||` would swallow a
  legitimate `0`.
- Wrap all post-serve top-level side effects (retention sweeper,
  stale sweeper, shutdown handlers, banner, vault check) in
  `if (import.meta.main) { ... }`. Production `bun run src/index.ts`
  still boots identically; the banner now prints
  `${server.hostname}:${server.port}` (effective bind, so an
  OS-ephemeral bind shows the assigned port, not `PORT`).
- Zero reformatting of the ~1850-line Bun.serve object literal —
  reviewable diff stays surgical.
- Verified: `bun run src/index.ts` boots with correct banner and
  effective port; `bootServer({ port: 0 })` from a test binds an
  OS-assigned ephemeral port and returns it via `server.port`.

## Test refactor (2 files, isolated_server kind)

- `src/api-host-supervisors-fallback.test.ts`: drop `PORT = 18000 +
  Math.random() * 1000` and the `process.env.PORT` mutation; call
  `bootServer({ port: 0, hostname: "127.0.0.1" })` in `beforeAll`;
  finalize `BASE` from `server.port`; call `server.stop(true)` in
  `afterAll`; cleanup includes the DB dir (sweeps WAL + SHM in one shot).
- `src/uploads-http.test.ts`: same pattern.

Individual results (running each isolated suite in its own Bun child):

  src/api-host-supervisors-fallback.test.ts  → 8/0/30 pass
  src/uploads-http.test.ts                   → 10/0/26 pass

The 8 previously-red tests are now green because the assertions
finally reach — no fetch() dials an unbound port anymore.

## Aggregate runner (scripts/test-runner.ts + scripts/test-manifest.ts)

- Bun-authored (no Node runtime dependency). Serial by construction —
  no `--concurrency=N` flag ships in this PR (determinism first;
  parallelism gated on evidence).
- CLI: `--suite=<manifest-path>` (exact match only) and `--verbose`.
  No glob patterns — the manifest is the source of truth.
- Manifest is exhaustive: `ISOLATED_SERVER_SUITES` + `SHARED_UNIT_SUITES`
  cover every `*.test.ts` under `server/src/` and `server/scripts/`.
  On start the runner does a set-equality check against the actual
  filesystem — a missing or extra entry hard-fails BEFORE any suite
  runs. Duplicate check first, then disk vs manifest.
- Per-child env: explicit allowlist of parent keys (PATH, TMPDIR,
  TERM, LANG, LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE, CI, GITHUB_ACTIONS, SHELL, USER,
  LOGNAME). Everything else dropped. `DATABASE_URL` is `delete env.
  DATABASE_URL`'d both after the allowlist copy and after suite-specific
  overrides — belt+braces defense on top of the #435 db-adapter guard.
- Per-child `HOME`, `COMMHUB_DB`, `COMMHUB_UPLOADS_DIR`, `TMPDIR`: fresh
  `mkdtempSync` per suite. On exit the runner rms the whole dir
  (sweeps `db`, `db-wal`, `db-shm` at once).
- `NODE_ENV=test` forced for every child.
- Exit code is the gate. Pass/fail/expect counters are parsed only for
  the aggregate summary — a green count-line can never green-wash a
  non-zero child exit.
- stdout/stderr continuously drained (no buffered deadlock). `--verbose`
  streams live; otherwise the runner prints the tail on failure.
- SIGINT/SIGTERM handlers forward to every live child then clean up
  temp dirs before propagating exit.

## Runner self-test (scripts/test-runner-self.test.ts)

- Rule 9 / #435 defense-in-depth: proves the runner's env-shaping
  produces `DATABASE_URL=undefined` in a Bun child even when the parent
  process has a leaked fake-prod DATABASE_URL. Spawns a real Bun -e
  child, asks it to print `process.env.DATABASE_URL || "UNSET"`,
  asserts "UNSET".
- Also includes the clean-parent baseline (no leaked DATABASE_URL →
  child still UNSET) and a smoke-test that `NODE_ENV="test"` is set.

## package.json

- `"test": "bun run scripts/test-runner.ts"` — canonical gate.
- `"test:raw": "…echo warning to stderr… && bun test src/"` — retained
  as diagnostic-only. Running it prints a loud warning that this path
  reproduces the module-singleton conflicts documented in #434 and
  is not a CI gate.

## Reproducibility (3× consecutive canonical runs)

Every run identical:

  total pass:    526
  total fail:      0
  total expects: 1555

  [isolated_server] src/api-host-supervisors-fallback.test.ts  exit=0  8/0/30
  [isolated_server] src/uploads-http.test.ts                    exit=0 10/0/26
  [shared_unit]     (28 files)                                  exit=0 508/0/1499

= baseline 515 pass + 8 tests newly-reaching (which were previously
counted as fails) + 3 new runner-self tests = 526 pass. 1518 expects +
7 runner-self + additional expects from newly-reaching assertions =
1555. Zero fail, zero ConnectionRefused, zero DB guard trip, zero
port collision.

Runner also proven to:
- reject an unregistered `stray.test.ts` on disk with a hard fail
  BEFORE any test runs
- reject a duplicate manifest entry the same way

## Scope

- `server/src/index.ts` — bootServer factory + `import.meta.main` guard
- `server/src/api-host-supervisors-fallback.test.ts` — use seam
- `server/src/uploads-http.test.ts` — use seam
- `server/scripts/test-runner.ts` — new (Bun-authored)
- `server/scripts/test-manifest.ts` — new
- `server/scripts/test-runner-self.test.ts` — new
- `server/package.json` — canonical test → runner; test:raw diagnostic
- `docs/tests/aggregate-runner.md` — new SOP doc

Zero touches to `db-adapter.ts` — #435 stays on its own branch/PR.
#436 (`security/435-…`) is not cherry-picked; docs may link #435/#436
but do not assume they have merged.

Refs: #434 (this), #435 (DATABASE_URL guard, related), #428 (RFC).

Independent checkpoint: FAIL — keep Draft; do not Ready/merge.

The green baseline is real: I reproduced canonical 526 pass / 0 fail / 1555 expects, including a parent fake-prod DATABASE_URL. OS-ephemeral port binding, normal child failure propagation, and manifest mismatch rejection work.

Blocking findings at 6260213:

  1. P0 — published CLI no longer starts the server. server/bin/commhub.ts only dynamically imports index.js; the new if (import.meta.main) in index.ts is therefore false on the official commhub-server path. Real run: DB initializes, process stays alive, but health is connection-refused and strace records 0 bind/0 listen. Introduce one explicit production lifecycle called by both direct-index and bin entrypoints, and add a real bin→health smoke.
  2. P0 — test:raw still inherits DATABASE_URL. With a fake PG URL it selects PostgreSQL ([commhub] database: PostgreSQL); this machine only avoided a connection because pg is absent. Diagnostic mode is not a DB-safety bypass. Raw must also unconditionally remove DATABASE_URL, force NODE_ENV=test, and use a throwaway COMMHUB_DB.
  3. P1 — signal handling can green-wash/interminably leak. The handler only forwards. A child that exits 0 on SIGTERM yields runner exit 0 with 0/0/0; a child that ignores the signal leaves runner, child, and anet-434-* temp dir alive. Add first-signal state, stop scheduling, force overall nonzero even if child exits 0, bounded grace→kill, and finally cleanup; lock both exit-0 and ignore-signal counterexamples.
  4. P1 — env self-test tests a copy, not the runner. It duplicates allowlist/env construction. Deliberately regressing the real runner still leaves the self-test green. Exercise a nested real runner/probe or one import-safe shared implementation.
  5. P1 — #435 integration currently fails closed. Overlaying verified #435 HEAD 30e811a makes the manifest reject src/db-adapter-guard.test.ts before tests run. Do not weaken set equality; rebase after #435 and register that suite, then rerun 3×.
  6. P1/P2 — lifecycle/fixture ownership is incomplete. Top-level console replacement plus timers at index.ts:102 and :503 remain outside the lifecycle, so import-only never exits and bootServer().stop() cannot clean them. The two real-server tests also statically open DB before setting their test-local SERVER_DB, so that path is unused and cleanup targets the wrong directory; safety currently comes from runner child env.

Please deliver one corrective commit with raw evidence for the counterexamples above. No merge/deploy authorization is implied.
