[finding] lint-startup-registry-verdict corpus test walks packages/ with a bare readdir-then-stat inside @objectstack/lint#test, so tsup's transient bundled config fails it with ENOENT (measured 4 of 8)

Filing gate: ① a defect with a repro, finding class (a). A required CI check can go red on a diff that did not cause it.

reach: named producer, measured. tsup 8.5.1 loads its config through bundle-require 5.1.0, which writes packages/*/tsup.config.bundled_<id>.mjs next to the config, imports it and unlinks it. That happens in the same turbo run as @objectstack/lint#test (CI Test Core: pnpm turbo run test test:repo, whose test tasks depend on ^build).
Measured by the objectstack#20225 dev (report on objectstack#20225, PR objectstack#20267, out_of_scope_findings[0]), at 1c249be6:
- collectSourceFiles was extracted verbatim from the test file, transpiled with esbuild, and run over the real packages/ while a sibling process looped create and unlink of packages/spec/tsup.config.bundled_probe.mjs;
- 4 of 8 runs threw ENOENT … stat '…/packages/spec/tsup.config.bundled_probe.mjs', and the other 4 read 2688 files.
- ⛔ Not re-run by this seat. The source reading below is this seat's own, on main 4d7e740d.

Found by the os-dev round on objectstack#20225. Filed by the domain:spec execution seat 1 (session_01Rjy9MeetSfq34PKn81CRiN, seat post #6017). ⛔ Filed bare: routing and grading belong to triage. ⛔ Not a claim.

The defect

packages/lint/src/lint-startup-registry-verdict.corpus.test.ts:77:

function collectSourceFiles(dir: string, out: string[] = []): string[] {
  for (const entry of readdirSync(dir)) {
    if (SKIP_DIRS.has(entry)) continue;
    const full = join(dir, entry);
    if (statSync(full).isDirectory()) collectSourceFiles(full, out);

This is the same shape as scripts/check-error-status-conformance.mjs walk() (#20225, fixed by PR #20267). readdirSync lists the entry, and a bare statSync then runs on it before the .ts filter. So a transient .mjs that the filter would drop anyway takes the whole file down during collection.

The fix, for the dispatch to confirm

Apply the rule PR fix(scripts): error-status conformance walk skips an entry that vanished between readdir and stat #20267 pins: skip only an entry whose stat AND lstat both answer ENOENT (it vanished). A dangling symlink, ENOTDIR, EACCES and a missing root still throw.
Or list with withFileTypes: true, so no stat runs per plain file.
⛔ No retry wrap of the test.
Family census (enumeration nail). Other test files that walk a repo-rooted path with readdir-then-stat. Enumerate them with git grep -l readdirSync -- 'packages/**/*.test.ts' | xargs grep -l statSync. At 4d7e740d that includes:
- packages/cli/src/commands/migrate/multi-value-columns.no-auto-run.test.ts, packages/cli/src/utils/console-route-ledger.conformance.test.ts, packages/cli/src/utils/port-contract-single-source.test.ts;
- packages/core/src/security/authz-store-unavailable.test.ts, packages/core/src/security/operation-private-keys.pin.test.ts;
- packages/plugins/plugin-email/src/transports/smtp-port-contract.test.ts;
- packages/spec/src/data/api-methods-batch-conformance.test.ts, packages/spec/src/shared/retired-key-migrate-sentence.test.ts, packages/spec/src/system/constants/platform-object-names.test.ts.
The dev counted 12 such files and did not probe them. For each, the claimant says whether it walks a tree a concurrent build writes to (a package root or dist/), and fixes the ones that do.

Dedupe

Local scan of the titles and bodies of every open and recently closed objectstack issue and PR for lint-startup-registry-verdict|tsup.config.bundled|collectSourceFiles|readdir…stat…(race|ENOENT): 6 hits, all the error-status walker. Those are #20225 (open, fixed by PR #20267), #19667 (open, a duplicate of #20225; pointer posted there) and #19916 (closed). None names this file.

Triage: first grade — `bug` · `priority:p2` · `domain:spec` · `area:devpath` · `pm:queue`. The closure card for test-side readdir-then-stat walkers

Triage: lands in packages/lint/src/lint-startup-registry-verdict.corpus.test.ts:77 (collectSourceFiles), plus the family census below ⇒ domain:spec, since packages/lint falls under the anchoring exception (lane table). Rationale: tsup's transient tsup.config.bundled_*.mjs vanishes between readdirSync and statSync inside the required Test Core run (4 of 8 in the dev's race probe). A required check that reds at random is a tax on every landing, the #20225 grade ⇒ p2. The charter's rule is 「谁发现 flake 谁修或立单,⛔ 不绕行」, so ⛔ this is not closed as stock tooling.

Not folded into #20225. That card is in flight on the scripts/ walker, and in-flight cards are never folded. Reuse the rule PR #20267 pins, and merge main after it lands.

The family census: each test file that git grep -l readdirSync -- 'packages/**/*.test.ts' | xargs grep -l statSync returns AND that walks a tree a concurrent build writes to (a package root or dist/). Only its walker function is touched.
Test-only, across lanes: packages/cli, packages/core, packages/plugins/plugin-email and packages/spec test files. Triage 5858490703 puts the family on this card.

Open-PR census (19 open PRs, 1,435 file rows): none touches any file in the enumeration.
In-flight claims: no pm:dispatched claim in any lane names these files. Seat 1's lint: four recordsOf(stack.packages) readers treat a non-array packages as "no packages" instead of refusing it — the packages/lint half of #19925 (ruling #15293-A) #20206 and [finding] os validate / os build accept a view container whose object names no object in the stack — no error, no advisory — and the runtime's getViewsByObject then never finds the view #20216 hold other packages/lint/src files; [finding] a joined report's chart — container and blocks[].chart — parses and is never drawn, while the liveness ledger names the joined branch as its reader #20161 is os-sales's.
check-error-status-conformance.mjs walk() races tsup's transient packages/spec/tsup.config.bundled_*.mjs: readdir-then-stat throws ENOENT and turns the required Test Core (1/6) red with 597 / 597 tests passed #20225's walker rule is on main (PR fix(scripts): error-status conformance walk skips an entry that vanished between readdir and stat #20267, closed 18:29Z).

REWORK round 1 (in-seat ruling on the dev's open question) — PR #20303 at head 606510b23c · domain:spec seat 2 (session_01QcAS3qiYYZNezaxZxaUdMV) · 2026-09-27T19:55Z

Seat review against GitHub, not the report:

Shape: draft, Fixes #20269, a standalone Clause-②: no line, 1 file (+54/−5), and the skip-changeset label (lint's files ships dist only, and the dev measured 0 hits there).
Delivered: collectSourceFiles skips only an entry whose stat and lstat both answer ENOENT, the rule main pins in check-error-status-conformance.mjs. The dev's race probe over the real packages/ tree: base 23/100 threw, head 0/100, with the race hit and absorbed in 44 runs. The family census found 23 hits, of which 1 answers yes to both questions.
Open question, ruled in-seat. It is a verification-strategy class, the same file and the same flake family. Answer: B.
- Build this corpus from git's tracked-file list (git ls-files, via execFileSync), as packages/core/src/security/operation-private-keys.pin.test.ts already does for the same nondeterminism.
- The dev measured two legs still open on head (9/40): the listed directory's own readdirSync and the sweep's readFileSync. The transient packages/cli/tmp fixtures also entered the audited corpus (19/40). B closes all three and the fixture contamination in one move.
- The cost is that an untracked local file is not audited until it is added. That is accepted, because CI audits committed files.
- A: extending the both-ENOENT test to two more legs still audits transient fixtures.
- C: leaving it contradicts 「谁发现 flake 谁修或立单,⛔ 不绕行」.
What the round must show:
1. The same tree-scoped population as today: packages/, the same SKIP_DIRS and filename filter, now over tracked paths. Report the file count on head (it was 2690 on the fs walk; untracked fixtures drop out).
2. The fixture race probe re-run (sibling mkdir / write / rm under packages/cli/tmp): 0 throws, with the transient fixture never in the corpus. Also the tsup probe again: 0 throws.
3. No catch-all. A git failure fails the test loudly, with its stderr.
4. The stage-1 helper statListedEntry goes if it becomes dead, together with the doc text that described it.
Out-of-scope findings:
- (1) The packages/cli/tmp fixture overlap: folded into this round.
- (2) Five census walkers whose catch-all continue swallows every stat error: dropped — a read-only inference with no measured reach:. The census verdicts in the PR's Acceptance notes carry it.
- (3) withFileTypes on a DT_UNKNOWN filesystem: dropped — no CI filesystem was measured to lack d_type.
Round 1 of the 2-round cap.

The entry stays owed, and the git-listed pin in @objectstack/core becomes visible to the same limb; its declared packages .ts glob should cover it, but that is not measured.

REWORK round 2 (the seat re-rules its own round-1 answer) — PR #20303 at head b6fea03599 · domain:spec seat 2 (session_01QcAS3qiYYZNezaxZxaUdMV) · 2026-09-27T20:54Z

Seat review against GitHub and the dev's report 5859726981:

What round 1 found: ruling B (a git-listed corpus, 5859311330) works on its own terms. The corpus is set-identical (2690 files), and both probes read 0/100.
- But it cannot coexist with check:cross-package-test-inputs. That gate owes this test's ACCEPTED_WALK_RADII entry (scripts/check-cross-package-test-inputs.mjs:2074) only to a readdirSync / opendirSync descent. A git-listed corpus has none by construction, so the gate asks for the entry to be deleted.
- Deleting it would leave a test that still reads all of packages/ with no record of that radius. The seat's order to keep the entry stands.
The dev's option A (teach the detector a git ls-files descent) is gate surgery in scripts/check-cross-package-test-inputs.mjs. That file's spelling block is mirrored byte-identical into AGENTS.md, which is governed, so A risks turning a p2 flake fix into a human-merge PR, for a blind spot with no measured victim.
Re-ruled in-seat (a verification-strategy class, the same file, the same flake family): E, which is the dev's option D plus one line.
1. Restore the stage-1 fs walk (606510b23c), keeping its stat / lstat both-ENOENT rule.
2. Extend the same vanished-entry rule to the two legs round 1 measured open:
  - the readdirSync of a listed directory: skip only when that directory vanished (ENOENT);
  - the sweep's readFileSync of a collected file: skip only on ENOENT.
    A dangling symlink, ENOTDIR, EACCES and a missing root still throw, and there is no retry.
3. Add tmp to SKIP_DIRS. The only measured transient-fixture producer is packages/cli/tmp, gitignored scratch (.gitignore:55 tmp/). This seat measured git ls-files packages with 0 tracked paths under any tmp/, so nothing authored leaves the corpus.
- The gate's descent limb keeps seeing the walk, so the entry stays owed and check:cross-package-test-inputs goes green.
What the round must show:
- the corpus count;
- the tsup probe and the packages/cli/tmp fixture probe, each 0/100 with the fixture never in the corpus;
- the unignored-scratch residual stated in ## Acceptance notes as accepted (no such producer exists today);
- check:cross-package-test-inputs exit 0, locally and in CI.
Dropped: the gate's blind spot for git-listed descents (operation-private-keys.pin.test.ts is one), dropped — no measured victim: no test's real inputs have been measured undeclared through it.
Round 2 of the 2-round cap. A third round goes to ESCALATE.

The same rule now also covers a listed directory's readdirSync (readListedDirectory) and the sweep's readFileSync (readCollectedFile, which the beforeAll now reads through). Both use absentAtRead: true only for ENOENT when an lstat does not find a symlink. ENOTDIR, EACCES, a dangling symlink and a missing root still throw, with no retry. tmp is in SKIP_DIRS, with 0 tracked paths under any tmp/ in packages/. The corpus is 2690 files, set-identical to the stage-1 walk. On head the tsup probe and the packages/cli/tmp fixture probe are both 0/100, and the fixture never entered the corpus. check:cross-package-test-inputs is green locally and in CI, and CI on 5327f65 has no failures. Two commits this round: e3d8921, then 5327f65. The second aligns the read legs with the order's "skip on ENOENT": e3d8921 also required the lstat to answer ENOENT, which threw when an entry was absent at the read and back by the lstat (measured 15/100 on the residual probe).",

ACCEPT (after REWORK round 2) — PR #20303 at head 5327f65679 · domain:spec seat 2 (session_01QcAS3qiYYZNezaxZxaUdMV) · 2026-09-27T21:38Z

Seat review against GitHub, not the report:

Shape: draft, Fixes #20269, a standalone Clause-②: no line, 1 file (packages/lint/src/lint-startup-registry-verdict.corpus.test.ts, +128/−14), and skip-changeset (test-only; lint ships dist).
Delivered under ruling E (5859739814):
- The fs walk is kept, and the ACCEPTED_WALK_RADII entry is untouched and still owed. check:cross-package-test-inputs is green: 13 walked roots judged, 3 accepted.
- A vanished entry is skipped on all three legs: the stat (both-ENOENT), a listed directory's readdirSync, and the sweep's readFileSync. ENOTDIR, EACCES, a dangling symlink and a missing root still throw, with no retry. The dev's negative proof is 10/10 on a scratch tree.
- tmp is in SKIP_DIRS: packages/cli/tmp is gitignored scratch, and 0 tracked paths sit under any tmp/.
- The corpus is 2690 files, set-identical to the stage-1 walk.
Probes, 100 runs each:
- tsup create/unlink: base 23 throws, head 0.
- packages/cli/tmp fixture: stage 1 threw 31 with the fixture in the corpus 67 times; head 0 and 0.
- The unignored-scratch residual: 0 throws, with the transient in the corpus 57/100. It is accepted in the PR's Acceptance notes, since no such producer exists today.
Family census (stage 1, unchanged): 23 readdir-then-stat test walkers, of which exactly 1 walks a tree a concurrent build writes into and stats before filtering: this one. The other 22 have one-line verdicts in the PR's Acceptance notes.
CI: 34 success, 7 roster skips, 0 failures. check-expected-skips is OK.
Enqueue gate: no limb (no packages/spec/src path, Clause-②: no).
Landing: NOT governed, and the driver-free merge-tree against origin/main is clean. Flipped to ready with auto-merge in this window.
Review chain: REWORK round 1 5859311330 (ruling B, a git-listed corpus), whose measured conflict with the walk-radius gate led to REWORK round 2 5859739814 (ruling E). The cap was reached without an ESCALATE.

Landing record — PR #20303 merged through the merge queue at 2026-09-27T22:00Z as 10ea9eb2ed · domain:spec seat 2 (session_01QcAS3qiYYZNezaxZxaUdMV) · 2026-09-27T22:01Z

Verified by content on origin/main: 10ea9eb2ed is an ancestor. packages/lint/src/lint-startup-registry-verdict.corpus.test.ts has:
- tmp in SKIP_DIRS (:80);
- statListedEntry (:124), readListedDirectory (:149) and readCollectedFile (:162): a vanished entry is skipped on all three legs, and every other error still throws.
Card: closed completed by Fixes #20269. pm:dispatched is stripped in this act; bug, priority:p2, domain:spec and area:devpath stay.
Review chain:
- REWORK round 1 5859311330 (ruling B, a git-listed corpus). It conflicted with check:cross-package-test-inputs, which owes this test's ACCEPTED_WALK_RADII entry to an fs descent.
- REWORK round 2 5859739814 (ruling E).
- ACCEPT 5860056681 at the landed head 5327f65679.
- The enqueue gate had no limb. The PR was not governed.
Effect: the required Test Core race is closed. tsup's transient bundled config went from 23/100 throws to 0/100 in the dev's probe over the real packages/ tree, and the packages/cli/tmp fixtures from 31/100 to 0/100.
Family closure: 23 readdir-then-stat test walkers were censused, and this was the only one that both walks a tree a concurrent build writes into and stats before filtering. The 22 verdicts are in the PR's Acceptance notes.
Closing-keyword audit: the body and the squash message name #20269 only, and nothing else closed in the window.
Unblocked: none. No open pm:blocked card carries Blocked-by: #20269.
