Summary

Migrated all 10 atmos list subcommands to the StandardParser flag handler pattern. Reorganized into cmd/list/ directory following command registry pattern. Added comprehensive environment variable support and eliminated deep exits for better testability.

Changes

  • Moved 10 list commands from root cmd/ to cmd/list/ directory
  • Replaced legacy flag handling with StandardParser + Options structs
  • Added ATMOS_* environment variable support for all flags
  • Created newCommonListParser() factory to eliminate flag duplication
  • Refactored checkAtmosConfig() to return errors instead of calling Exit()

Test Plan

  • ✓ All existing unit tests pass
  • ✓ Commands compile without errors
  • ✓ Help text shows all flags with proper descriptions
  • ✓ Environment variables work end-to-end

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Adds a unified "list" command with dedicated subcommands (stacks, components, instances, workflows, metadata, settings, vendor, themes, values) and consistent output formatting.
    • Enhanced filtering (stack/component/query), flag + env-var support, shell completion for stack flags, formats/delimiters, max-columns, and home-directory obfuscation.
    • Clearer UX: consistent validation and user-friendly "No results" messages.
  • Documentation
    • Adds test-coverage report and a test-coverage improvement plan.

…Parser

- Reorganize all list commands into cmd/list/ directory following command registry pattern
- Replace legacy flag handling with StandardParser and Options structs for all 10 list subcommands
- Add comprehensive environment variable support (ATMOS_* prefix) for all flags
- Create shared newCommonListParser() factory for DRY flag management across commands

Estimated code review effort

🎯 4 (Complex) | ⏱️ ~60 minutes

Potential hotspots to review:

  • parsers & Viper flag bindings across many new parsers (env var mappings, defaults).
  • mappings from new Options structs to existing list filter helpers and error propagation.
  • wrapper helpers in cmd/cmd_utils.go and new utilities in cmd/list/utils.go (stack completion, stack queries).
  • test package moves (package list) and renamed command symbols referenced in tests.
  • deletions of legacy files — ensure no leftover references elsewhere.

🧹 Nitpick comments (14)
cmd/list/instances.go (1)

13-24: InstancesOptions + parser wiring look solid, options are ready for future use

The StandardParser + newCommonListParser setup cleanly registers common list flags plus --upload (with ATMOS_LIST_UPLOAD) and builds InstancesOptions embedding global.Flags. Even though InstancesOptions isn’t consumed yet in executeListInstancesCmd, it gives you a stable place to hang future behavior or tests without affecting current semantics. I’d leave it as‑is unless you’re certain you won’t need options here, in which case you could trim the struct and constructor for now.

Also applies to: 59-73

cmd/list/stacks.go (1)

21-27: Stacks command wiring is consistent; minor error-wrapping tweak is optional

StacksOptions + stacksParser correctly wire the --component flag (and ATMOS_COMPONENT) through StandardParser into options, and listStacksWithOptions cleanly goes through InitCliConfigExecuteDescribeStacksFilterAndListStacks, with a nice “No stacks found” UX. If you ever want richer introspection on errors here, you could switch the fmt.Errorf("error ...: %v", err) calls to use %w and sentinel errors (similar to the values file) so callers can errors.Is on them, but that’s strictly a nicety, not a blocker.

Also applies to: 29-65, 67-97

cmd/list/values.go (3)

39-42: Values + vars commands align with the StandardParser pattern and env support

The move to ValuesOptions with embedded global.Flags and the twin parsers (valuesParser/varsParser) looks clean—flags are centrally registered via newCommonListParser, environment overrides (ATMOS_LIST_ABSTRACT, ATMOS_LIST_VARS, ATMOS_PROCESS_TEMPLATES, ATMOS_PROCESS_FUNCTIONS) are wired through WithEnvVars, and RunE consistently does checkAtmosConfig(), BindFlagsToViper, and flags.ParseGlobalFlags. The vars alias forcing Query: ".vars" while dropping the Vars flag keeps the semantics straightforward. The extra len(args) check on top of cobra.ExactArgs(1) is a bit redundant; if you want to trim noise you could rely on Cobra’s arg validation and drop the manual guard, but that’s optional.

Based on learnings.

Also applies to: 44-108, 110-167, 169-223


243-265: Filter option helpers correctly model --vars, query, and CSV/TSV delimiter behavior

getFilterOptionsFromValues and prepareListValuesOptions do a nice job of centralizing how CLI options translate into l.FilterOptions: Vars forcing the query to .vars, Stack mapping to StackPattern, and the special handling of .vars via ComponentFilter vs Component matches the needs of the extractor. The small CSV tweak—switching the delimiter from DefaultTSVDelimiter to DefaultCSVDelimiter only when format == csv and the user hasn’t explicitly overridden the delimiter—nicely avoids surprising tab‑delimited “CSV” output while preserving explicit overrides. If you find yourself needing the same CSV/TSV default behavior in other list commands, it might be worth pulling this into a shared helper, but it’s fine to keep scoped here for now.

Also applies to: 275-302


24-37: listValuesWithOptions error handling is solid; consider whether process- flags should affect existence checks*

listValuesWithOptions has well-structured error handling: it uses explicit sentinels (ErrComponentNameRequired, ErrInitializingCLIConfig, ErrDescribingStacks), wraps underlying errors via fmt.Errorf(ErrFmtWrapErr, ...) for errors.Is compatibility, distinguishes ComponentDefinitionNotFoundError from NoValuesFoundError, and logs a friendly “no values/vars” message before returning nil for the latter. One subtle point: listutils.CheckComponentExists currently calls ExecuteDescribeStacks with its own hard-coded flags, while the main values flow calls ExecuteDescribeStacks with opts.ProcessTemplates/opts.ProcessFunctions. If your intention is that --process-templates/--process-functions fully define the view of the world (including whether a component “exists”), you may eventually want to thread these options through to the existence check as well to avoid potential mismatches in edge cases where templates/functions introduce components. Not urgent, but worth keeping in mind.

Based on learnings.

Also applies to: 303-355

cmd/list/themes.go (1)

20-27: Themes command cleanly adopts Options + StandardParser while remaining tolerant of missing config

ThemesOptions plus themesParser follow the same StandardParser pattern as the other list commands, and wiring --all through ATMOS_LIST_ALL_THEMES keeps env behavior consistent. In executeListThemesWithOptions, treating InitCliConfig failures as “no active theme” rather than hard errors means atmos list themes still works even if the user’s config is absent or broken, which feels like the right trade‑off for a purely informational command. If you ever want better diagnosability, you could log the init error at a debug level when it occurs, but functionality-wise this looks good.

Also applies to: 28-37, 45-59, 61-98

cmd/list/workflows.go (1)

79-87: listWorkflowsWithOptions composes config + list config cleanly; CSV delimiter behavior is a future polish

listWorkflowsWithOptions uses InitCliConfig(configAndStacksInfo{}, false) purely to obtain atmosConfig.Workflows.List, then delegates to FilterAndListWorkflows, which matches the signature shown in the list package. That layering keeps config resolution in one place. There is some inevitable duplication because FilterAndListWorkflows will also init config when fileFlag == "", but the overhead is minor for this command. If you want parity with the values command, you could later introduce the same “auto-switch to DefaultCSVDelimiter when format == csv and delimiter is still at the TSV default” behavior here so that --format csv without an explicit --delimiter yields comma-separated output, but that’s a refinement, not a bug.

cmd/list/metadata.go (2)

36-47: Add explicit Args validation for the optional component argument

metadataCmd’s Use string advertises an optional [component], but Args is not set, so Cobra will accept and silently ignore any extra positional args beyond the first. For consistency with settingsCmd and clearer UX, consider enforcing a single optional argument.

You could tighten this up like:

 var metadataCmd = &cobra.Command{
-	Use:   "metadata [component]",
-	Short: "List metadata across stacks",
-	Long:  "List metadata information across all stacks or for a specific component",
+	Use:   "metadata [component]",
+	Short: "List metadata across stacks",
+	Long:  "List metadata information across all stacks or for a specific component",
 	Example: "atmos list metadata\n" +
 		"atmos list metadata c1\n" +
 		"atmos list metadata --query .component\n" +
 		"atmos list metadata --format json\n" +
 		"atmos list metadata --stack '*-{dev,staging}-*'\n" +
 		"atmos list metadata --stack 'prod-*'",
+	Args: cobra.MaximumNArgs(1),
 	RunE: func(cmd *cobra.Command, args []string) error {

146-157: Avoid calling ExecuteDescribeStacks twice when a component filter is provided

When componentFilter is non-empty, listMetadataWithOptions first calls listutils.CheckComponentExists, which internally runs ExecuteDescribeStacks, and then calls ExecuteDescribeStacks again to obtain stacksMap. On large stacks this can be noticeably expensive.

If feasible, consider one of these approaches:

  • Drop the explicit CheckComponentExists and rely on the downstream listing logic to surface a ComponentDefinitionNotFoundError/NoValuesFoundError, or
  • Reuse the first stacksMap from CheckComponentExists instead of recomputing it.

This would keep behavior the same while avoiding duplicate stack traversal.

cmd/list/components.go (3)

29-35: Double-check that forbidding positional args doesn’t break existing usage

componentsCmd is declared with Args: cobra.NoArgs, which means atmos list components <stack> will now be rejected and users must use --stack instead.

If prior versions accepted an optional stack positional argument, this is a breaking change. If you want to preserve that convenience while still preferring the flag, you could allow at most one arg and map it into the stack option:

 var componentsCmd = &cobra.Command{
-	Use:   "components",
-	Short: "List all Atmos components or filter by stack",
-	Long:  "List Atmos components, with options to filter results by specific stacks.",
-	Args:  cobra.NoArgs,
+	Use:   "components",
+	Short: "List all Atmos components or filter by stack",
+	Long:  "List Atmos components, with options to filter results by specific stacks.",
+	Args:  cobra.MaximumNArgs(1),
 	RunE: func(cmd *cobra.Command, args []string) error {
@@
-		opts := &ComponentsOptions{
-			Flags: flags.ParseGlobalFlags(cmd, v),
-			Stack: v.GetString("stack"),
-		}
+		stack := v.GetString("stack")
+		if len(args) == 1 && stack == "" {
+			stack = args[0]
+		}
+
+		opts := &ComponentsOptions{
+			Flags: flags.ParseGlobalFlags(cmd, v),
+			Stack: stack,
+		}

If the old command never supported positional stacks, then the current NoArgs behavior is fine.


67-81: Consider enabling stack completion for --stack as in other list subcommands

The components command defines a --stack flag but doesn’t hook into addStackCompletion, unlike metadataCmd and settingsCmd. Adding completion here would make the UX consistent across list commands.

For example:

 func init() {
 	// Create parser with components-specific flags using functional options
 	componentsParser = flags.NewStandardParser(
 		flags.WithStringFlag("stack", "s", "", "Filter by stack name or pattern"),
 		flags.WithEnvVars("stack", "ATMOS_STACK"),
 	)
 
 	// Register flags
 	componentsParser.RegisterFlags(componentsCmd)
+
+	// Add stack completion
+	addStackCompletion(componentsCmd)
 
 	// Bind flags to Viper for environment variable support
 	if err := componentsParser.BindToViper(viper.GetViper()); err != nil {
 		panic(err)
 	}
 }

83-96: Align error wrapping with list error types for consistency

listComponentsWithOptions wraps failures from InitCliConfig and ExecuteDescribeStacks with fmt.Errorf(...) strings, while metadata/settings use the typed errors in pkg/list/errors. Using the same typed errors here would make behavior more uniform and easier to test.

Something along these lines:

-import (
-	"fmt"
-	"strings"
+import (
+	"fmt"
+	"strings"
@@
-	l "github.com/cloudposse/atmos/pkg/list"
+	l "github.com/cloudposse/atmos/pkg/list"
+	listerrors "github.com/cloudposse/atmos/pkg/list/errors"
@@
 func listComponentsWithOptions(opts *ComponentsOptions) ([]string, error) {
 	configAndStacksInfo := schema.ConfigAndStacksInfo{}
 	atmosConfig, err := config.InitCliConfig(configAndStacksInfo, true)
 	if err != nil {
-		return nil, fmt.Errorf("error initializing CLI config: %v", err)
+		return nil, &listerrors.InitConfigError{Cause: err}
 	}
 
 	stacksMap, err := e.ExecuteDescribeStacks(&atmosConfig, "", nil, nil, nil, false, false, false, false, nil, nil)
 	if err != nil {
-		return nil, fmt.Errorf("error describing stacks: %v", err)
+		return nil, &listerrors.DescribeStacksError{Cause: err}
 	}

That would keep the user-visible messages essentially the same while aligning with the rest of the list commands.

cmd/list/settings.go (2)

101-112: Optional: use a shared constant for the “settings” component key (if available)

setupSettingsOptions hard-codes "settings" as the component key. If pkg/list defines a KeySettings (similar to KeyMetadata), using that would avoid duplicating the string literal and keep things aligned with the metadata command.

If such a constant exists, the change would be:

 func setupSettingsOptions(opts *SettingsOptions, componentFilter string) *l.FilterOptions {
 	return &l.FilterOptions{
-		Component:       "settings",
+		Component:       l.KeySettings,

If there’s no existing constant, the current code is fine.


124-154: Same double ExecuteDescribeStacks pattern as metadata when componentFilter is set

As with listMetadataWithOptions, the settings path will:

  • Call listutils.CheckComponentExists, which internally executes ExecuteDescribeStacks, and then
  • Call ExecuteDescribeStacks again to obtain stacksMap.

On large configs this can be more work than necessary.

If you later decide to optimize, the same options apply here as for metadata:

  • Drop the explicit existence check and let the listing logic surface a not-found error, or
  • Reuse the first stacksMap for both existence checking and filtering.

This doesn’t block the PR, but it’s a good candidate for a small follow-up improvement.

Timestamp: 2025-10-07T00:25:16.333Z
Learning: In Atmos CLI, subcommands inherit flags from their parent commands via Cobra's command inheritance. For example, `atmos terraform metadata --help` shows `--affected` and related flags inherited from the parent `terraform` command (defined in cmd/terraform.go), even though the metadata subcommand doesn't explicitly define these flags. This is expected Cobra behavior and auto-generated help screengrabs accurately reflect this inheritance.

Learning: In the Atmos codebase, commands using the `StandardParser` flag pattern (from pkg/flags) do NOT need explicit `viper.BindPFlag()` calls in their code. The StandardParser encapsulates flag binding internally: flags are registered via `parser.RegisterFlags(cmd)` in init(), and bound via `parser.BindFlagsToViper(cmd, v)` in RunE, which internally calls viper.BindPFlag for each flag. This pattern is used throughout Atmos (e.g., cmd/toolchain/get.go, cmd/toolchain/info.go, cmd/toolchain/install.go, cmd/toolchain/path.go). Do not flag missing viper.BindPFlag calls when StandardParser is used.

Learning: In the Atmos codebase, commands using the `StandardParser` flag pattern (from pkg/flags) do NOT need explicit `viper.BindPFlag()` calls in their code. The StandardParser encapsulates flag binding internally: flags are registered via `parser.RegisterFlags(cmd)` in init(), and bound via `parser.BindFlagsToViper(cmd, v)` in RunE, which internally calls viper.BindPFlag for each flag. This pattern is used throughout Atmos (e.g., cmd/toolchain/get.go, cmd/toolchain/info.go, cmd/toolchain/install.go, cmd/toolchain/path.go). Do not flag missing viper.BindPFlag calls when StandardParser is used.

Learning: In the Atmos codebase, when a function receives an `*schema.AtmosConfiguration` parameter, it should read configuration values from `atmosConfig.Settings` fields rather than using direct `os.Getenv()` or `viper.GetString()` calls. The Atmos pattern is: viper.BindEnv in cmd/root.go binds environment variables → Viper unmarshals into atmosConfig.Settings via mapstructure → business logic reads from the Settings struct. This provides centralized config management, respects precedence, and enables testability. Example: `atmosConfig.Settings.AtmosGithubToken` instead of `os.Getenv("ATMOS_GITHUB_TOKEN")` in functions like `getGHCRAuth` in internal/exec/oci_utils.go.

Learning: In the cloudposse/atmos Go codebase, `InitCliConfig` returns a `schema.AtmosConfiguration` value (not a pointer), while `ExecuteDescribeDependents` expects a `*schema.AtmosConfiguration` pointer parameter. Therefore, when passing the result of `InitCliConfig` to `ExecuteDescribeDependents`, use `&atmosConfig` to pass the address of the value.

Learning: In `cmd/version.go`, when handling the `--check` flag in the `versionCmd`, avoid using `CheckForAtmosUpdateAndPrintMessage(cliConfig)` as it updates the cache timestamp, which may not be desired in this context.

🔇 Additional comments (23)
cmd/docs_generate.go (1)

20-21: Nice simplification.

Removing the explicit argument check is the right move since cobra.ExactArgs(1) on line 17 handles validation, and ExecuteDocsGenerateCmd also validates args. Cleaner flow.

cmd/cmd_utils.go (2)

817-832: Clean wrapper implementation.

The function properly initializes config, describes stacks, and filters results. Error propagation is good.


834-856: Wrapper looks good.

The silent error handling on line 839 (defaulting stackFlag to "" when flag read fails) is reasonable for completion contexts where the flag may not be set.

cmd/list/utils.go (4)

19-36: Good refactor for testability.

Returning errors instead of calling Exit is a key improvement per the PR objectives. The optional skipStackCheck parameter adds flexibility for commands that don't require stack validation.


38-44: Stack completion setup looks good.

Properly checks for existing flag before adding and registers completion.


46-97: Completion and listing functions are well-structured.

The functions properly separate concerns and handle errors appropriately for completion contexts.


99-119: Nice factory pattern.

Centralizing common list flags and env var bindings in one place reduces duplication. The extensibility via additionalOptions is a good touch.

cmd/list/vendor_test.go (1)

1-15: LGTM!

Package rename aligns with the refactor. The test documents that the vendor command doesn't require stack processing, which is a useful design constraint to capture.

cmd/root.go (1)

48-48: LGTM!

Side-effect import follows the established pattern for command registration. The list package's init() function will automatically register all list subcommands.

cmd/list/workflows_test.go (1)

1-15: LGTM!

Package rename is correct. Test consistently documents that the workflows command doesn't require stack processing.

cmd/list/instances_test.go (1)

1-105: LGTM!

Comprehensive test coverage for the instances command. Tests verify flags, argument validation, command structure, and options handling. Well-structured and thorough.

cmd/list/list_test.go (2)

1-1: LGTM!

Package rename aligns with the refactor.


188-204: LGTM!

Command variable references updated to match the new modular structure (removing the "list" prefix). The tests maintain their coverage while working with the new command names.

cmd/list/settings_test.go (1)

1-186: LGTM!

Comprehensive test coverage for the settings command. Tests verify flags, argument validation, command structure, and options handling. Table-driven tests for setupSettingsOptions provide good scenario coverage.

cmd/list/vendor.go (2)

60-81: LGTM!

Parser initialization follows the StandardParser pattern correctly. Environment variable bindings are appropriate, and the panic on bind error is acceptable in init() to prevent silent configuration failures.


83-97: LGTM!

The helper function correctly calls InitCliConfig with processStacks=false and maps options appropriately. This aligns with the test expectations in vendor_test.go.

cmd/list/list.go (1)

1-48: LGTM!

Clean implementation of the list command module. The ListCommandProvider pattern is correctly implemented, and all 10 subcommands are properly registered. The command structure follows the established conventions.

cmd/list/instances.go (1)

26-56: Execution path for list instances correctly reuses common CLI plumbing

The RunE flow—checkAtmosConfig(), instancesParser.BindFlagsToViper, then ProcessCommandLineArgs("list", cmd, args, nil) and list.ExecuteListInstancesCmd—matches the established pattern for commands that need full config/stack context. Explicitly setting Command = "list" and SubCommand = "instances" on configAndStacksInfo keeps downstream logic unambiguous. No issues here from a wiring or correctness standpoint.

Also applies to: 75-85

cmd/list/themes.go (1)

142-216: TTY-aware theming and recommended indicators behave consistently with the --all flag

displayThemes, formatThemesTable, and formatSimpleOutput nicely separate concerns: TTY detection via term.IsTTYSupportForStdout() decides between the styled table and plain text, and both paths use opts.All and the showingRecommendedOnly flag so the star indicator and footer message only appear in “show everything” mode. Including the active theme marker (> ) regardless of mode is a good touch. The rendering logic is straightforward and doesn’t surface any edge-case issues.

Also applies to: 218-261

cmd/list/workflows.go (1)

16-25: Workflows command is wired correctly into list.FilterAndListWorkflows with env-backed flags

WorkflowsOptions and workflowsParser correctly surface --file, --format, and --delimiter (with ATMOS_WORKFLOW_FILE, ATMOS_LIST_FORMAT, ATMOS_LIST_DELIMITER env overrides) through StandardParser and flags.ParseGlobalFlags. The RunE flow—checkAtmosConfig(true), BindFlagsToViper, build options, listWorkflowsWithOptions, then PrintMessageInColor—is consistent with the rest of the list commands and keeps the output nicely themed. Nothing blocking here.

Also applies to: 26-57, 59-77

cmd/list/metadata.go (2)

79-98: StandardParser wiring and env var support look aligned with the shared pattern

Using newCommonListParser with RegisterFlags(metadataCmd) in init() and BindFlagsToViper in RunE, plus BindToViper(viper.GetViper()) for env var support, matches the StandardParser pattern used elsewhere and should preserve the expected flag/env precedence.

Based on learnings


167-175: Graceful handling of NoValuesFoundError

Mapping NoValuesFoundError to a specific “No metadata found” log message and returning ("", nil) keeps the CLI exit status clean while still signaling the condition to users, and lets other errors propagate unchanged.

cmd/list/settings.go (1)

156-173: Consistent, user-friendly handling of empty settings output

Logging “Filtering settings …” at debug level, then translating NoValuesFoundError into a “No settings found” info log and a ("", nil) result mirrors the metadata behavior and keeps non-empty error cases distinct from the “nothing to show” case.

24-29: Consider using os.UserHomeDir() for simpler cross-platform detection.

The manual environment variable detection works but Go's standard os.UserHomeDir() handles this more cleanly and consistently.

-	// Determine expected home directory.
-	homeDir := os.Getenv("HOME")
-	if runtime.GOOS == "windows" {
-		if userProfile := os.Getenv("USERPROFILE"); userProfile != "" {
-			homeDir = userProfile
-		}
-	}
+	// Determine expected home directory.
+	homeDir, err := os.UserHomeDir()
+	if err != nil {
+		t.Skip("Could not determine home directory for test")
+	}

File: website/src/components/Screengrabs/atmos-terraform-metadata--help.html:25-55
Timestamp: 2025-10-07T00:25:16.333Z
Learning: In Atmos CLI, subcommands inherit flags from their parent commands via Cobra's command inheritance. For example, `atmos terraform metadata --help` shows `--affected` and related flags inherited from the parent `terraform` command (defined in cmd/terraform.go), even though the metadata subcommand doesn't explicitly define these flags. This is expected Cobra behavior and auto-generated help screengrabs accurately reflect this inheritance.

Learning: In the cloudposse/atmos repository, CLI documentation files in cmd/markdown/ follow a specific format that uses " $ atmos command" (with leading space and dollar sign prompt) in code blocks. This is the established project convention and should not be changed to comply with standard markdownlint rules MD040 and MD014.

File: :0-0
Timestamp: 2025-11-10T03:03:31.505Z
Learning: In the Atmos codebase, commands using the `StandardParser` flag pattern (from pkg/flags) do NOT need explicit `viper.BindPFlag()` calls in their code. The StandardParser encapsulates flag binding internally: flags are registered via `parser.RegisterFlags(cmd)` in init(), and bound via `parser.BindFlagsToViper(cmd, v)` in RunE, which internally calls viper.BindPFlag for each flag. This pattern is used throughout Atmos (e.g., cmd/toolchain/get.go, cmd/toolchain/info.go, cmd/toolchain/install.go, cmd/toolchain/path.go). Do not flag missing viper.BindPFlag calls when StandardParser is used.

Learning: The Atmos codebase uses a consistent pattern for commands that delegate to external tools: `PersistentFlags().Bool("", false, doubleDashHint)` where doubleDashHint provides help text about using double dashes to separate Atmos options from native command arguments. This pattern is used across terraform, packer, helmfile, atlantis, aws, and ansible commands.

Learning: In the cloudposse/atmos repository, command merging prioritizes precedence over display ordering. Help commands are displayed lexicographically regardless of internal array order, so the mergeCommandArrays function focuses on ensuring the correct precedence chain (top-level file wins) rather than maintaining specific display order.

35-80: Solid table-driven test coverage.

The test cases comprehensively cover the obfuscation scenarios, and the additional verification that homeDir doesn't appear in the output is good defensive testing.

Move the "Skip stack validation for vendor" comment from inline to
above the checkAtmosConfig call for better readability.

84-86: Consider graceful error handling instead of panic.

The panic(err) in the init function will crash the application at startup if BindToViper fails. While this might be acceptable for catching programming errors during development, consider logging a fatal error or returning the error through a lazy initialization pattern for more graceful handling and testability.

Learning: In the cloudposse/atmos repository, CLI documentation files in cmd/markdown/ follow a specific format that uses " $ atmos command" (with leading space and dollar sign prompt) in code blocks.

Timestamp: 2025-10-07T00:25:16.333Z
Learning: In Atmos CLI, subcommands inherit flags from their parent commands via Cobra's command inheritance. For example, `atmos terraform metadata --help` shows `--affected` and related flags inherited from the parent `terraform` command (defined in cmd/terraform.go), even though the metadata subcommand doesn't explicitly define these flags. This is expected Cobra behavior and auto-generated help screengrabs accurately reflect this inheritance.

Learning: In the Atmos codebase, commands using the `StandardParser` flag pattern (from pkg/flags) do NOT need explicit `viper.BindPFlag()` calls in their code. The StandardParser encapsulates flag binding internally: flags are registered via `parser.RegisterFlags(cmd)` in init(), and bound via `parser.BindFlagsToViper(cmd, v)` in RunE, which internally calls viper.BindPFlag for each flag. This pattern is used throughout Atmos (e.g., cmd/toolchain/get.go, cmd/toolchain/info.go, cmd/toolchain/install.go, cmd/toolchain/path.go). Do not flag missing viper.BindPFlag calls when StandardParser is used.

Instead, document the OpenTofu requirement in code comments and documentation, trusting users who enable the feature (e.g., `PassVars`) to ensure their terraform command points to an OpenTofu binary.

Learning: In the Atmos codebase, when a function receives an `*schema.AtmosConfiguration` parameter, it should read configuration values from `atmosConfig.Settings` fields rather than using direct `os.Getenv()` or `viper.GetString()` calls. The Atmos pattern is: viper.BindEnv in cmd/root.go binds environment variables → Viper unmarshals into atmosConfig.Settings via mapstructure → business logic reads from the Settings struct. This provides centralized config management, respects precedence, and enables testability. Example: `atmosConfig.Settings.AtmosGithubToken` instead of `os.Getenv("ATMOS_GITHUB_TOKEN")` in functions like `getGHCRAuth` in internal/exec/oci_utils.go.

🧹 Nitpick comments (6)
cmd/list/instances_test.go (4)

11-49: Consider testing the actual command instead of a mock.

This test creates a fresh cobra.Command and manually adds flags, then verifies they exist. It's testing Cobra's flag mechanism rather than the actual instancesCmd. Consider either:

  1. Testing instancesCmd directly (like TestListInstancesCommand does on line 67)
  2. Removing this test if flag registration is already verified elsewhere

Example refactor to test the real command:

-func TestListInstancesFlags(t *testing.T) {
-	cmd := &cobra.Command{
-		Use:   "instances",
-		Short: "List all Atmos instances",
-		Long:  "This command lists all Atmos instances or is used to upload instances to the pro API.",
-		Args:  cobra.NoArgs,
-	}
-
-	cmd.PersistentFlags().String("format", "", "Output format")
-	cmd.PersistentFlags().String("delimiter", "", "Delimiter for CSV/TSV output")
-	cmd.PersistentFlags().String("stack", "", "Stack pattern")
-	cmd.PersistentFlags().String("query", "", "JQ query")
-	cmd.PersistentFlags().Int("max-columns", 0, "Maximum columns")
-	cmd.PersistentFlags().Bool("upload", false, "Upload instances to pro API")
-
-	formatFlag := cmd.PersistentFlags().Lookup("format")
+func TestListInstancesFlags(t *testing.T) {
+	// Test actual command from package
+	formatFlag := instancesCmd.PersistentFlags().Lookup("format")
 	assert.NotNil(t, formatFlag, "Expected format flag to exist")
 	assert.Equal(t, "", formatFlag.DefValue)
 
-	delimiterFlag := cmd.PersistentFlags().Lookup("delimiter")
+	delimiterFlag := instancesCmd.PersistentFlags().Lookup("delimiter")
 	assert.NotNil(t, delimiterFlag, "Expected delimiter flag to exist")
 	assert.Equal(t, "", delimiterFlag.DefValue)
+	// ... continue for other flags

52-63: Consider removing framework behavior test.

This test verifies Cobra's built-in NoArgs validator works correctly. Since it doesn't test Atmos-specific logic, it could be removed or consolidated with TestListInstancesCommand which already verifies the Args validator on line 72-76.


80-105: Remove tautological struct tests.

These tests assign values to struct fields and verify they were assigned correctly. This tests Go's language behavior rather than Atmos logic. Per the project's CLAUDE.md guidelines, tautological tests should be removed.

If you want to test InstancesOptions, test actual behavior like:

  • How options affect command execution
  • Validation logic on options
  • Transformation of options into other types

108-170: Convert to behavioral tests or remove.

While table-driven tests are good practice, this test is tautological - it assigns struct fields and verifies the assignments succeeded. Consider testing actual behavior instead:

  • How do these option combinations affect listInstancesWithOptions?
  • Are there validation rules that reject certain combinations?
  • Do options transform input/output in expected ways?

If there's no behavior to test yet (integration tests deferred), consider removing this until the behavior is implemented.

docs/prd/test-coverage-implementation-summary.md (1)

81-96: Consider acknowledging test quality variability.

The summary states "All tests follow CLAUDE.md guidelines" and "No stub/tautological tests," but the actual test files include several tautological struct validation tests (e.g., TestListInstancesOptions, TestMetadataOptions_AllFields). Consider updating this section to acknowledge:

  • Option structure tests are baseline validation
  • Primary value comes from helper function tests
  • Some tests will be replaced with integration tests in Phase 4

This provides a more accurate representation of the current test quality.

cmd/list/utils_test.go (1)

54-63: Remove duplicate test.

TestNewCommonListParser_CreatesValidParser duplicates the "parser with no additional options" case from TestNewCommonListParser (lines 18-21). The table-driven test already covers this scenario.

Apply this diff:

-// TestNewCommonListParser_CreatesValidParser tests that the parser is usable.
-func TestNewCommonListParser_CreatesValidParser(t *testing.T) {
-	parser := newCommonListParser()
-	assert.NotNil(t, parser, "Parser should not be nil")
-
-	cmd := &cobra.Command{Use: "test"}
-	assert.NotPanics(t, func() {
-		parser.RegisterFlags(cmd)

File: cmd/markdown/atmos_toolchain_aliases.md:2-4
Timestamp: 2025-09-13T16:39:20.007Z
Learning: In the cloudposse/atmos repository, CLI documentation files in cmd/markdown/ follow a specific format that uses " $ atmos command" (with leading space and dollar sign prompt) in code blocks. This is the established project convention and should not be changed to comply with standard markdownlint rules MD040 and MD014.

Learning: For the cloudposse/atmos repository, changes to template contents should be handled in dedicated PRs and are typically considered out of scope for PRs focused on other objectives.

File: website/src/components/Screengrabs/atmos-terraform-metadata--help.html:25-55
Timestamp: 2025-10-07T00:25:16.333Z
Learning: In Atmos CLI, subcommands inherit flags from their parent commands via Cobra's command inheritance. For example, `atmos terraform metadata --help` shows `--affected` and related flags inherited from the parent `terraform` command (defined in cmd/terraform.go), even though the metadata subcommand doesn't explicitly define these flags. This is expected Cobra behavior and auto-generated help screengrabs accurately reflect this inheritance.

File: cmd/cmd_utils.go:340-359
Timestamp: 2024-10-23T21:36:40.262Z
Learning: In the Go codebase for Atmos, when reviewing functions like `checkAtmosConfig` in `cmd/cmd_utils.go`, avoid suggesting refactoring to return errors instead of calling `os.Exit` if such changes would significantly increase the scope due to the need to update multiple call sites.

File: pkg/config/load.go:585-637
Timestamp: 2025-09-27T20:50:20.564Z
Learning: In the cloudposse/atmos repository, command merging prioritizes precedence over display ordering. Help commands are displayed lexicographically regardless of internal array order, so the mergeCommandArrays function focuses on ensuring the correct precedence chain (top-level file wins) rather than maintaining specific display order.

Timestamp: 2025-11-10T03:03:31.505Z
Learning: In the Atmos codebase, commands using the `StandardParser` flag pattern (from pkg/flags) do NOT need explicit `viper.BindPFlag()` calls in their code. The StandardParser encapsulates flag binding internally: flags are registered via `parser.RegisterFlags(cmd)` in init(), and bound via `parser.BindFlagsToViper(cmd, v)` in RunE, which internally calls viper.BindPFlag for each flag. This pattern is used throughout Atmos (e.g., cmd/toolchain/get.go, cmd/toolchain/info.go, cmd/toolchain/install.go, cmd/toolchain/path.go). Do not flag missing viper.BindPFlag calls when StandardParser is used.

File: cmd/ansible.go:26-28
Timestamp: 2025-09-05T14:57:37.360Z
Learning: The Atmos codebase uses a consistent pattern for commands that delegate to external tools: `PersistentFlags().Bool("", false, doubleDashHint)` where doubleDashHint provides help text about using double dashes to separate Atmos options from native command arguments. This pattern is used across terraform, packer, helmfile, atlantis, aws, and ansible commands.

File: cmd/terraform_commands.go:260-265
Timestamp: 2025-01-09T22:37:01.004Z
Learning: In the terraform commands implementation (cmd/terraform_commands.go), the direct use of `os.Args[2:]` for argument handling is intentionally preserved to avoid extensive refactoring. While it could be improved to use cobra's argument parsing, such changes should be handled in a dedicated PR to maintain focus and minimize risk.

File: internal/exec/oci_utils.go:0-0
Timestamp: 2025-11-08T19:56:18.660Z
Learning: In the Atmos codebase, when a function receives an `*schema.AtmosConfiguration` parameter, it should read configuration values from `atmosConfig.Settings` fields rather than using direct `os.Getenv()` or `viper.GetString()` calls. The Atmos pattern is: viper.BindEnv in cmd/root.go binds environment variables → Viper unmarshals into atmosConfig.Settings via mapstructure → business logic reads from the Settings struct. This provides centralized config management, respects precedence, and enables testability. Example: `atmosConfig.Settings.AtmosGithubToken` instead of `os.Getenv("ATMOS_GITHUB_TOKEN")` in functions like `getGHCRAuth` in internal/exec/oci_utils.go.

Learning: For indirect dependencies with license compliance issues in the cloudposse/atmos repository, the team prefers to handle them in follow-up PRs rather than blocking the current changes, as these issues often require deeper investigation of the dependency tree.

139-197: Solid behavioral test.

Good work on this test! It validates actual helper function behavior with meaningful edge cases (flag exists, doesn't exist, different defaults). This follows the CLAUDE.md guidelines for testing behavior rather than implementation.


200-387: Excellent behavioral test coverage.

These tests validate real helper function behavior with meaningful scenarios:

  • getFilterOptionsFromValues tests delimiter transformations, vars flag behavior, and query handling
  • prepareListValuesOptions tests the distinction between vars and non-vars queries
  • Table-driven approach with clear expectations

Well done following CLAUDE.md guidelines.

cmd/list/utils_test.go (1)

66-96: Good utility function tests.

These tests verify actual behavior of addStackCompletion:

  • Adds flag when missing
  • Doesn't panic when flag exists
  • Verifies flag properties (shorthand, default)

Good edge case coverage for a utility function.

docs/prd/test-coverage-improvement-plan.md (1)

1-596: Well-structured coverage improvement plan.

This plan demonstrates solid understanding of testing best practices:

  • Phased approach with clear targets
  • Acknowledgment of CLAUDE.md guidelines (lines 428-435)
  • Example tests show behavioral testing (lines 519-591)
  • Realistic about challenges and dependencies

The plan provides good direction for improving test quality beyond just coverage numbers.

cmd/list/metadata_test.go (2)

66-170: Strong behavioral test coverage.

These tests validate actual transformation logic in setupMetadataOptions:

  • Default query application when empty (lines 153-160)
  • Custom query preservation (lines 163-170)
  • Complete field mapping from options to filter options (lines 66-129)

Well-structured tests that verify real behavior rather than implementation details.


199-276: Comprehensive option mapping tests.

Excellent table-driven test that verifies how different MetadataOptions combinations map to filter options. Tests meaningful scenarios:

  • All options populated with custom query
  • Empty options defaulting to .metadata
  • Component filtering behavior

This provides good coverage of the transformation logic.

Claude (via Conductor) and others added 3 commits November 14, 2025 11:08
Remove ineffective TestListVendorCmd_WithoutStacks which only logged
a message without any assertions. Replace with TestVendorOptions that
actually verifies the VendorOptions structure behavior with various
combinations of format, stack, and delimiter values.

The removed test claimed to verify that InitCliConfig was called with
processStacks=false, but provided no actual verification - it would
never fail even if the code changed. The new test validates actual
option structure behavior and will fail if the structure changes.

Changes:
- Remove: TestListVendorCmd_WithoutStacks (t.Log-only test)
- Add: TestVendorOptions with 3 test cases (all options, empty, partial)
- Add assertions that fail when behavior changes

- Add unit test covering the case where homeDir is a prefix of another directory name
- Fix obfuscateHomeDirInOutput to only replace homeDir at path boundaries
- Refactor into smaller helper functions to reduce cyclomatic complexity
- Example: homeDir='/home/user' no longer incorrectly replaces '/home/username'

The fix implements boundary-aware string scanning using strings.Builder to scan
through the string and only replace homeDir when it's followed by:
- End of string
- Path separator (already handled by first ReplaceAll)
- Non-path characters (space, newline, etc.)

This prevents replacing homeDir when it's followed by alphanumeric characters,
dashes, or underscores (indicating it's a prefix of another directory name).

Helper functions added:
- shouldReplaceHomeDir: Checks if homeDir should be replaced at current position
- isPathChar: Determines if a character is part of a path component name

Test case added: 'homeDir as prefix of another path should not be replaced'
All existing tests continue to pass.
- Remove redundant inline comments from obfuscateHomeDirInOutput
- Simplify control flow for better readability
- No functional changes, only formatting cleanup
