Summary by Sourcery

Enable help-target discovery for manifests containing build-only helpers while clearly identifying unresolved conditional actions and targets without changing normal build behaviour.

New Features:

• Allow help targets to discover manifests without evaluating command and script recipe bodies.
• Retain entries whose query-time when conditions depend on disabled helpers and expose their conditional status in text and JSON output.

Bug Fixes:

• Prevent build-only template helpers from causing manifest-query discovery failures while preserving normal build rendering and selection behaviour.

Enhancements:

• Add localized conditional markers and propagate conditional metadata through manifest expansion, graph validation, and help cataloguing.
• Add scoped diagnostics and nextest configuration for slow integration tests.

Documentation:

• Document manifest-query rendering, conditional entries, output semantics, and the cached merge API.

Tests:

• Add unit, integration, BDD, localization, and snapshot coverage for build-only helpers, conditional alternatives, and unchanged full rendering.
• Reduce property-test cases and instrument isolated Cargo subprocesses to improve slow-test diagnostics.

Summary

• Add manifest-query rendering for netsuke help targets. Skip command and script recipe bodies and their build-only helpers.
• Preserve descriptions and metadata without executing recipes or creating build outputs.
• Retain entries with query-disabled when helpers as conditional. Exclude explicitly false conditions and still report other template errors.
• Mark conditional entries in text and JSON output. Add localised conditional markers.
• Preserve full rendering and normal build, generate, and manifest behaviour.
• Add unit, integration, BDD, end-to-end, property-based, and snapshot coverage.
• Update the migration, design, CLI design, user, and developer documentation. Link the implementation to issue #574 and the manifest rendering design.
• Add the new debugging plan for slow integration tests, with scoped timing diagnostics and measured hypotheses. Do not change test thresholds or scheduling.

Walkthrough

Manifest query rendering now skips recipe bodies, preserves entries with unavailable conditional helpers, and exposes conditional status in text and JSON help output. Tests, localisation, documentation, and slow-test diagnostics cover the new behaviour.

Query winds pass recipe doors,
Conditional stars remain.
Helpers sleep while help appears,
Markers speak in every tongue.
Tests record each measured step.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 8fac6

The PR changes help-target discovery to avoid evaluating build-only recipe helpers while preserving conditional entries and normal build behavior. The supplied validation passes, and the remaining documentation and test-organization follow-ups do not present an actionable merge-blocking risk.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

The implementation satisfies the coding objectives in [#574]. It skips recipe rendering during queries, preserves descriptions and metadata, marks query-dependent entries as conditional, retains ordinary filtering and error behaviour, avoids side effects, and preserves normal rendering semantics.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The feature, localisation, documentation, and feature tests are in scope. The slow-test debugging plan, subprocess timing instrumentation, and reduction of the tracked-manifest property-test count are unrelated to [#574].

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 94.59% which is sufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 74 functions across 27 files. (6 skipped: 6 unsupported.)

Full details: Testing (Overall)

Explanation

Accept the testing coverage. The pull request adds substantive tests for query-mode command and script skipping, rule-selector rendering, conditional action and target retention, template-form conditions, ordinary false filtering, unrelated errors, description preservation, full-render compatibility, JSON and text markers, graph validation of conditional alternatives, and no recipe or output side effects. Unit tests assert transformed values and error paths. End-to-end tests invoke help targets with real manifests and verify output, descriptions, conditional markers, duplicate-name alternatives, and absent output files. Existing restricted-helper tests cover the disabled helper set, while snapshots and property-based tests cover conditional propagation and JSON serialization. These tests would fail for the main plausible regressions, and no explicit testing failure condition is introduced.

Full details: User-Facing Documentation

Explanation

The pull request documents the new netsuke help targets behaviour in docs/users-guide.md. The guide explains query rendering, skipped command and script recipe bodies, query-disabled helpers, conditional entries, human-readable and JSON markers, and unchanged normal build rendering. The pull request also updates the migration guide with the new discovery behaviour. No explicit documentation failure condition is present.

Full details: Developer Documentation

Explanation

Accept the documentation check. docs/developers-guide.md documents the two rendering modes, the query-disabled helper boundary, conditional metadata propagation, help output, and the new nextest diagnostics. docs/netsuke-design.md and docs/netsuke-cli-design-document.md record the architecture and behaviour decisions, including graph validation and unchanged full rendering. The new debugging plan records measurements and resulting decisions. Roadmap item 3.14.5 remains incomplete and is correctly unchecked. All 35 locale catalogues contain cli.help.conditional_marker, including the en-US lead locale.

Full details: Module-Level Documentation

Explanation

Pass the module-level documentation check. The pull request adds one Rust module, tests/runner_help_targets_tests/query_helpers.rs, and it starts with a //! docstring that states its discovery-test purpose and its relationship to manifest-query helpers. Every changed Rust module also has leading module documentation, and the repository scan found no Rust files without it.

Full details: Testing (Unit And Behavioural)

Explanation

Mark the Testing check PASS. Unit tests cover query-mode recipe skipping for command and script recipes, full-render preservation, rule selectors, conditional action and target expansion, ordinary false filtering, and unrelated when errors. Property-based tests verify catalogue order, name flattening, metadata, defaults, and conditional propagation. Behavioural tests run the netsuke binary at the help targets boundary and verify descriptions, conditional markers, duplicate conditional alternatives, JSON output, and that recipes and .netsuke outputs are not created. The BDD feature also exercises the user-visible conditional help workflow. The tests are wired into the Rust and BDD test modules and are not limited to private helper calls.

Full details: Testing (Property / Proof)

Explanation

Mark this check PASS. The PR introduces range-based invariants for conditional metadata, name flattening, declaration order, default propagation, and query-time filtering. It already uses substantive proptest coverage in src/runner/help_tests.rs, generating varied actions, targets, aliases, descriptions, defaults, and conditional states, then checking the complete catalogue result. Complement this with example-based tests for conditional, false, template, and unrelated-error paths in the manifest expansion tests. No proof assumption requires an exhaustive proof.

Full details: Testing (Compile-Time / Ui)

Explanation

Pass this check. The PR adds runtime manifest-query behaviour, not compiler diagnostics or type-level behaviour that requires a trybuild test. The text and JSON UI output have focused snapshot coverage in src/snapshots/help_targets/, including Unicode, ASCII, Spanish localisation, and conditional JSON values. The JSON snapshot redacts only the generator version. Integration tests add stable assertions for descriptions, conditional markers, duplicate alternatives, and absence of generated outputs.

Full details: Unit Architecture

Explanation

Pass the Unit Architecture check. Keep the query boundary explicit: ManifestLoadMode::ManifestQuery, RenderMode::ManifestQuery, and register_manifest_query restrict query rendering to safe helpers. Query rendering skips command and script bodies, disables host, filesystem, environment, network, clock, and shell helpers, and classifies disabled when evaluation without executing it. help_query performs only in-memory graph validation and catalogue construction, then the command boundary writes output. Manifest reads and rendering failures return Result values. The added tests verify that queries create no .netsuke directory or recipe outputs. No changed production path introduces a network call, process execution, write, wall-clock dependency, or hidden fallible operation.

Full details: Domain Architecture

Explanation

PASS — the change preserves the domain boundary. src/manifest/expand.rs consumes the domain-shaped WhenResolution and QueryEvaluation concepts. src/manifest/jinja_macros/mod.rs contains the MiniJinja-specific adapter that translates minijinja::Error into QueryEvaluation, while src/stdlib/register.rs owns helper registration and the vendor error marker. CLI, terminal output, path resolution, and graph-validation orchestration remain in src/runner/help.rs and src/runner/help_query.rs. The AST adds only the explicit Target.conditional policy state. No changed domain code introduces direct HTTP, SQL, filesystem, queue, or CLI dependencies, and normal full rendering remains behind RenderMode::Full.

Full details: Observability

Explanation

Pass this check. The feature changes local help targets discovery and output only. The existing runner.help_targets span, bounded success/error counter, and duration histogram cover the complete query, including the new success path. Existing pipeline-stage reporting and runtime error reporting expose failure boundaries. Conditional state is also explicit in the [◇ conditional] or [? conditional] text marker and the JSON conditional field. The changed code adds no process, service, storage, queue, or async boundary that requires new tracing. The new subprocess timing logs are test-only and use elapsed time without sensitive or unbounded fields. The feature diff adds no unbounded telemetry labels, secrets, or credentials.

Full details: Security And Privacy

Explanation

Pass this check. The pull request adds no real secrets, credentials, tokens, or private keys. The only secret-like test value is the fixed sentinel help-query-secret. Query mode disables environment, network, shell, command, host, and filesystem helpers in src/stdlib/register.rs. It skips command and script recipe rendering in src/manifest/render.rs. Help output escapes terminal controls and JSON uses structured serialisation in src/runner/help.rs. New timing logs emit elapsed seconds only. The changed-file scan found no credential material or sensitive data exposure.

Full details: Performance And Resource Use

Explanation

Pass the performance and resource-use check. The changed manifest-query path keeps linear section, catalogue, and graph traversals. Conditional graph validation uses in-place retain on the owned manifest, so it does not clone the manifest. New allocations are bounded by returned catalogue entries and one conditional flag per retained entry. Query mode skips command and script rendering, which removes work from the help targets path. The added timing and nextest changes affect only two test subprocesses and add no retries, polling, or extra process executions. The property-test change reduces cases from 256 to 32.

Full details: Concurrency And State

Explanation

Pass the Concurrency and State check. The pull request adds no async tasks, locks, atomics, channels, retries, cancellation paths, or new process-wide mutable state. The manifest changes use owned local values. The only new mutable counter is a #[cfg(test)] thread_local! Cell in src/manifest/render.rs, with explicit reset and read helpers, so it is not shared between test threads. The subprocess diagnostics use scoped tracing::subscriber::with_default subscribers and existing Command::output() calls. The new BDD fixture stores isolated temporary directories and per-scenario observations in TestWorld. The nextest change enables immediate success output for two tests; it does not change scheduling or parallel execution. Existing parallel-test constraints remain documented, and the changed tests use private Cargo target/build directories. No explicit failure condition is introduced.

Full details: Architectural Complexity And Maintainability

Explanation

Pass the architectural complexity check. Keep the change: the new abstractions isolate concrete seams rather than add speculative extension points. RenderMode has two immediate callers (render_manifest and render_manifest_for_manifest_query) and makes the recipe-body boundary explicit. RecipeRenderContext removes repeated render parameters for target and rule recipes. QueryEvaluation keeps query-disabled error classification at the Jinja boundary, while WhenResolution expresses the manifest domain’s three required outcomes. The query standard-library path has one documented owner, register_manifest_query, with immediate use by manifest loading and a stated reuse path for future read-only generation callers. Focused tests cover full versus query rendering, disabled-helper handling, conditional propagation, and no-side-effect behaviour. The diff adds no dependency, global state, worker, trait, registry, or generated-code mechanism. The CLI portion also removes the previous policy-definition and parser-support modules in favour of clap::ValueEnum, reducing parallel implementations.

Full details: Rust Compiler Lint Integrity

Explanation

No custom-check failure condition was introduced. The PR adds no #[allow(dead_code)], #[allow(unused_imports)], #[allow(unused)], or equivalent suppression. New compiler-visible helpers, fields, re-exports, and modules have concrete callers. The changed build-script expectations pre-date the PR, while the PR removes obsolete CLI support modules. The three added clones have local ownership purposes: cloning the Clap command for an owned error, preserving defaults before graph validation consumes the manifest, and copying test descriptions for independent expected rows.

Inline comments:
In `@docs/debugging/debugging-plan-2026-08-28-slow-integration-tests.md`:
- Around line 21-26: Add descriptive captions to the “First observed” table and
the later hypothesis and measurement tables, placing each caption directly
before its table and clearly summarizing the table’s purpose for readers and
assistive technology.
- Line 1: Update the document headings, including “Debugging Plan: Investigate
slow netsuke-build integration tests,” to use sentence case consistently
throughout the file while preserving their meaning.
- Around line 164-169: Update the execution-order list in the debugging plan to
use hyphen bullets instead of numbered Markdown items, preserving the existing
H1–H4 order and text.

In `@src/manifest/expand_test_cases/action_condition_cases.rs`:
- Around line 147-158: Strengthen the tests in
src/manifest/expand_test_cases/action_condition_cases.rs at lines 147-158 by
asserting the exact name and description pairs for both conditional actions; at
lines 175-188, assert the ordinary foreach result is named test-keep. In
src/manifest/expand_test_cases/target_command_available_cases.rs at lines 69-79,
assert the retained target description is Run the test suite. Replace broad
count, marker, and non-empty-description checks with these exact retained-value
assertions.
- Around line 8-13: Move the duplicate manifest_query_environment helper from
src/manifest/expand_test_cases/action_condition_cases.rs lines 8-13 and
src/manifest/expand_test_cases/target_command_available_cases.rs lines 9-14 into
a shared rstest fixture in src/manifest/expand_tests.rs, then inject that
fixture into both modules’ tests and remove both local definitions.

In `@src/manifest/render_tests.rs`:
- Around line 308-330: Update
manifest_query_keeps_build_only_recipe_helpers_unrendered to assign the action
description a template referencing an action variable, then assert the rendered
description equals its expanded value rather than the literal source text. Keep
the existing command assertion intact so the test verifies both recipe-helper
and discovery-description rendering in ManifestQuery mode.

In `@src/manifest/tests/workspace.rs`:
- Around line 286-287: Update the
manifest_query_keeps_inline_build_helpers_in_recipes test annotation from
#[test] to #[rstest], preserving the test body and behavior.

In `@src/runner/help_tests.rs`:
- Around line 299-301: Update the property test documentation comment above the
proptest block to describe conditional entries as retained because manifest
discovery cannot evaluate their when expressions, while noting that the test
injects conditional state directly; remove the inaccurate claim that aliases are
selected by when.

In `@src/stdlib/register.rs`:
- Around line 30-32: Update MANIFEST_QUERY_DISABLED_HELPER_MARKER to construct
the same marker text with concat!(), replacing the escaped newline continuation
while preserving the exact resulting string.

In `@tests/bdd/steps/help_targets.rs`:
- Around line 41-68: Extract the shared temporary-directory installation and
four TestWorld state resets from conditional_action_workspace and
described_actions_and_targets_workspace into an rstest fixture. Update both BDD
setup steps to reuse that fixture while preserving their existing manifest
creation and identical initialization behavior.

In `@tests/runner_help_targets_tests/query_helpers.rs`:
- Around line 95-105: Update the conditional catalogue assertions in the test
loop to verify that both the preferred and fallback entries include the “[?
conditional]” marker, rather than only checking whether it appears anywhere in
stdout. Keep the existing assertions for each entry’s label and description, and
ensure a missing marker on either action fails the test.

@leynos

Treat both documentation warnings as resolved at PR #588 head 8fac6bc3480f06514a04a7bf512a18e493e5e9d2.

build-test and build-test-windows also completed successfully at this head.

The PR now updates all required documents:

• docs/v0-1-0-migration-guide.md Lines 176-205 defines manifest-query rendering for netsuke help targets. It covers skipped command and script recipe bodies, query-disabled helpers, conditional entries, false-condition exclusion, localized text markers, the JSON conditional field, side-effect-free discovery, and unchanged full rendering.
• docs/netsuke-design.md Lines 71-90 defines the full-rendering and manifest-query-rendering policies. It also records Target::conditional, help catalogue propagation, JSON output, and graph validation that excludes unresolved conditional alternatives.
• docs/netsuke-cli-design-document.md Lines 71-96 defines the netsuke help targets contract. It states that the command does not invoke Ninja, execute recipes, or create build outputs.

The current documentation matches the implemented RenderMode and render_manifest_for_manifest_query behaviour. The CodeScene Code Health Review also completed successfully.

Do not create a follow-up issue. Do not apply further changes for these two warnings.

  As per coding guidelines, “Public and private functions and methods carry /// docs”. As per path instructions, “Place function attributes after doc comments.”

🤖 Detailed instructions

Use a wyvern agent team to verify each finding against the current code and only fix it if needed. Fix any documentation issues using a scribe agent team. Fix only still-valid issues, skip the rest with a brief reason, keep changes minimal, and validate. Use a scrutineer agent for execution of tests and summarizing the results.

1071-1085: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Move the unstable Rust API section to the developers' guide.
Remove the Cached merge API (unstable) section from docs/users-guide.md and document it in docs/developers-guide.md. CachedMergeInput, ConfigEnvProvider, DiscoveryOutcome, and MergeObserver are maintainer APIs, not user-task guidance.
Triage: [type:docstyle]
As per coding guidelines, docs/users-guide.md is for user-facing guidance and must exclude maintainer-only concerns.

content and API references: CachedMergeInput, ConfigEnvProvider,
DiscoveryOutcome, and MergeObserver. Remove the section from the users guide so
maintainer-only Rust API details remain exclusively in developer documentation.

@leynos: Mark both findings as resolved at PR #588 revision 84e83b5f3439923210568753f5eb7af97f9e8375.

Private-function documentation

The required /// documentation exists directly before each declaration or function attribute.

• src/runner/help_tests.rs
  • catalogue_snapshot at Line 101.
  • text_catalogue_snapshot at Line 179.
  • accessible_catalogue_snapshot at Line 185.
  • localized_catalogue_snapshot at Line 191.
  • json_catalogue_snapshot at Line 201.
  • target_metadata at Line 282.
• tests/bdd/steps/help_targets.rs
  • described_actions_and_targets_workspace at Line 25.
  • The #[given(...)] attribute follows the documentation comment.
• tests/runner_help_targets_tests/query_helpers.rs
  • help_targets_skips_inline_build_only_helpers_in_recipes at Line 51.
  • The #[rstest] attribute follows the documentation comment.

Cached merge API documentation

The documentation relocation is complete.

• docs/users-guide.md no longer contains Cached merge API (unstable), CachedMergeInput, ConfigEnvProvider, DiscoveryOutcome, or MergeObserver.
• docs/developers-guide.md contains the Cached merge API (unstable) section at Line 2931.
• The developer guide preserves the required API references and the maintainer-facing configuration-merge context.

GitHub reports successful build-test and build-test-windows checks. CodeScene Code Health Review also succeeded. No remaining code or documentation work is required for these findings.
