Summary

This PR fixes two issues:

  1. The ImageExample component registration race condition
  2. ESLint and Prettier linting issues preventing CI from passing

Changes

ImageExample Registration Fix

  • Updated spec/dummy/config/initializers/react_on_rails.rb to set generated_component_packs_loading_strategy = :async
  • This fixes the race condition introduced in commit ee80bc2 where async main bundle executed before deferred component packs

Linting Fixes

  • Added no-var to eslint-disable for TypeScript global declarations (required in CI environment)
  • Removed unused @typescript-eslint/no-deprecated directive
  • Fixed Prettier formatting issues across markdown files
  • Updated CLAUDE.md to require running yarn run eslint --report-unused-disable-directives before commits

Root Cause (ImageExample)

Commit ee80bc2 changed the main client-bundle to use async: true, but the dummy app still had generated_component_packs_loading_strategy set to :defer, creating a race condition where the main bundle tried to hydrate components before they were registered.

Root Cause (Linting)

ESLint configuration behaves differently between local and CI environments:

  • CI requires no-var disable for TypeScript declare global blocks
  • Local environment doesn't trigger this rule
  • Solution: Keep both disables to support both environments

Test Plan

  • ✅ ESLint passes with --report-unused-disable-directives
  • ✅ Prettier formatting check passes
  • ✅ RuboCop passes
  • ✅ ImageExample component registration test should pass in CI

Walkthrough

This PR changes the default generated component packs loading strategy to :defer, removes async/sync branching in dummy layout and related tests, updates configuration validation, adds CI debugging/switching scripts, adds OpenSSL test-workarounds, and expands CI/testing documentation.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
Configuration & Defaults
lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb, spec/dummy/config/initializers/react_on_rails.rb
Default generated_component_packs_loading_strategy now falls back to :defer when unset; explicit :async raises an error if async loading is unsupported.
Layout & Helpers
spec/dummy/app/views/layouts/application.html.erb, spec/dummy/spec/helpers/react_on_rails_helper_spec.rb
Removed conditional async/sync branches; script tag always uses defer: true; helper tests updated to expect defer.
Tests & Specs
spec/react_on_rails/configuration_spec.rb, spec/dummy/spec/helpers/react_on_rails_helper_spec.rb
Tests updated to assert :defer default in all relevant scenarios and removed prior warning/async-dependent expectations.
CI Debugging Scripts
bin/ci-switch-config, bin/ci-rerun-failures, bin/ci-run-failed-specs
New Bash executables to switch CI config, re-run failed CI jobs locally, and re-run failed RSpec examples parsed from CI output.
Test Environment (OpenSSL)
spec/dummy/spec/rails_helper.rb, spec/dummy/spec/support/openssl_test.cnf
Adds OPENSSL_CONF workaround and a minimal OpenSSL config to stabilize SSL-related test failures with certain Ruby/OpenSSL combinations.
Docs & Verification
CLAUDE.md, SWITCHING_CI_CONFIGS.md, spec/dummy/TESTING_LOCALLY.md, TESTING_VERIFICATION.md
New/expanded documentation covering CI config switching, reproducing CI failures locally, SSL testing notes, and a testing verification report.
Linting & Minor Code Style
.rubocop.yml, eslint.config.ts, packages/react-on-rails/src/context.ts
RuboCop excludes bin/*; ESLint export changed to direct default export; ESLint-disable/comment ordering adjusted in a TypeScript global declare.
Misc docs formatting
docs/**, CONTRIBUTING.md, CHANGELOG.md, .claude/*, CODING_AGENTS.md, TODO.md
Various whitespace/formatting cleanups and selective removal of bullets across documentation files.

Code Review

Summary

This PR correctly fixes a race condition in component registration by aligning the loading strategy for auto-generated component packs with the main bundle's async loading behavior.

✅ Positives

  1. Root Cause Analysis: The PR description provides excellent context explaining the race condition between the main bundle (async) and the auto-generated component packs (defer).

  2. Correct Fix: Changing generated_component_packs_loading_strategy from :defer to :async aligns with:

    • The default behavior for Shakapacker >= 8.2.0 (see lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb:180)
    • The documented default in docs/api-reference/configuration.md:272-274
    • The main bundle's loading strategy
  3. Minimal Change: The fix is surgical - only touching the configuration that needs to change.

  4. Test Coverage: The existing test at spec/dummy/spec/system/integration_spec.rb:312 validates that ImageExample renders correctly, which should catch this issue.

🔍 Observations

Gemfile.lock Changes:
The Gemfile.lock shows two changes that appear unrelated to the fix:

  • turbolinks gem removed (but it's conditionally included in Gemfile.development_dependencies:14 via ENV check)
  • rbs gem added (it's listed as a development dependency in Gemfile.development_dependencies:36)

These changes suggest the lock file was regenerated, possibly due to environment differences or a bundle update. While not directly related to the fix, they're legitimate dependency updates.

Question: Was bundle install run with DISABLE_TURBOLINKS set, causing turbolinks to be removed? If so, this might be unintentional.

🎯 Recommendations

  1. Gemfile.lock: Verify whether the turbolinks removal is intentional. If not, run bundle install without DISABLE_TURBOLINKS to restore it.

  2. Documentation: Consider adding a comment in the config file explaining why async is used (to match main bundle loading strategy and prevent race conditions):

    # Use :async to match main bundle loading strategy and prevent component registration race conditions
    config.generated_component_packs_loading_strategy = :async
  3. Test Enhancement (optional): While the existing test should catch this, a more specific test could verify that components load correctly with async loading strategy.

✅ Code Quality

  • Follows repository conventions
  • No security concerns
  • No performance issues (actually improves performance by using async loading)
  • Change is backwards compatible with the framework's defaults

Verdict

LGTM with minor question about Gemfile.lock changes. The core fix is correct and well-reasoned. Just verify the dependency changes are intentional.

Code Review for PR #1964

Summary

This PR fixes a race condition issue where the ImageExample component fails to register when using async script loading. The fix properly aligns the loading strategy configuration with the default behavior based on Shakapacker version.


✅ Strengths

1. Root Cause Analysis

  • Excellent problem diagnosis identifying the race condition between main bundle (async: true) and generated component pack (:defer)
  • Clear explanation of how the execution order causes registration failures

2. Proper Solution

  • Correctly removes the explicit configuration override to use the smart defaults from lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb:179-186
  • Aligns with the framework's version-aware default behavior (:async for Shakapacker >= 8.2.0, :sync otherwise)

3. Test Coverage

  • Updated test in spec/dummy/spec/helpers/react_on_rails_helper_spec.rb:80-87 properly validates version-aware behavior
  • Uses ReactOnRails::PackerUtils.supports_async_loading? to test the correct default for the installed Shakapacker version

4. Documentation

  • Excellent inline comments explaining the version-based defaults and rationale
  • Clear comments prevent future developers from re-introducing the issue

🔍 Code Quality Observations

Positive

✅ Changes follow the codebase conventions and style guidelines
✅ Implementation leverages existing helper methods (supports_async_loading?)
✅ Minimal change surface reduces risk
✅ Aligns with the documented behavior from the codebase

Minor Observations

1. Gemfile.lock Changes (Unrelated)

The PR includes changes to spec/dummy/Gemfile.lock:

  • Added: rbs gem dependency
  • Removed: turbolinks and turbolinks-source

Impact: These changes appear unrelated to the async loading fix. While not problematic, they make the PR scope slightly broader than necessary.

Recommendation: Consider whether these dependency changes should be in a separate commit/PR for cleaner git history. However, if these were necessary for the CI environment or test setup, they're acceptable.


🎯 Best Practices Alignment

Configuration Management ✅

The fix demonstrates proper understanding of React on Rails' configuration hierarchy:

  1. Uses framework defaults when appropriate
  2. Only overrides when there's a specific need
  3. Documents why defaults are preferred

Version Compatibility ✅

The solution properly handles backward compatibility:

  • Shakapacker >= 8.2.0: Uses :async (optimal performance + React 18 Selective Hydration support)
  • Shakapacker < 8.2.0: Uses :sync (compatibility)

🔒 Security Considerations

✅ No security concerns identified
✅ No user input handling changes
✅ No authentication/authorization changes


⚡ Performance Considerations

Improvement: This fix enables optimal async loading behavior, which:

  • Improves page load performance
  • Supports React 18's Selective Hydration feature
  • Reduces blocking of the main thread

🧪 Test Coverage Assessment

Current Coverage ✅

  • Unit test validates the correct loading strategy options are passed
  • Test adapts to Shakapacker version (good defensive testing)

Potential Enhancement

Consider adding an integration test that validates the actual timing/registration behavior to prevent regression of the race condition. This could be a follow-up improvement rather than blocking this PR.


📝 Suggestions

1. CI Validation

Ensure CI passes the previously failing test: image_example should not have any errors

2. CHANGELOG Entry (if applicable)

Per CLAUDE.md, this is a bug fix that should be documented:

#### Bug Fixes
- Fixed race condition causing ImageExample registration failures with async script loading. [PR 1964](https://github.com/shakacode/react_on_rails/pull/1964) by [justin808](https://github.com/justin808)

3. Consider Documentation Update

The docs/ folder might benefit from a note about not overriding generated_component_packs_loading_strategy unless there's a specific reason, since the framework provides smart defaults.


🎬 Final Assessment

Overall Rating: ✅ Excellent

This is a well-researched, properly implemented fix that:

  • Solves the reported issue correctly
  • Maintains backward compatibility
  • Improves performance
  • Follows project conventions
  • Includes appropriate test coverage

Recommendation: Approve and merge after CI passes.

The only minor note is the unrelated Gemfile.lock changes, which are cosmetic and don't affect the correctness of the fix.


Great work on the thorough analysis and clean implementation! 🚀

Code Review: Fix ImageExample registration failure with async script loading

Summary

This PR addresses a race condition where auto-generated component packs could execute after the main bundle when using async loading, causing component registration failures. The fix involves updating the default loading strategy for older Shakapacker versions.


✅ Strengths

1. Root Cause Analysis

The PR correctly identifies the race condition between:

  • Main bundle with async: true (executes immediately)
  • Generated component packs with :defer (executes after page load)

2. Sensible Default Change

Changing the default from :sync to :defer for older Shakapacker versions (lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb:184) is appropriate:

  • :defer ensures component packs load before main bundle execution
  • Maintains performance benefits vs :sync (non-blocking download)
  • Aligns with the documented behavior

3. Good Test Coverage

The test updates (spec/dummy/spec/helpers/react_on_rails_helper_spec.rb:80-87) properly handle version-specific expectations using ReactOnRails::PackerUtils.supports_async_loading?.

4. Excellent Developer Experience

The new bin/ci-rerun-failures script is a fantastic addition for productivity:

  • Maps CI jobs to local commands
  • Deduplicates test runs
  • Provides clear feedback
  • Good error handling

🔍 Issues & Suggestions

Critical: Shellcheck Issues in bin/ci-rerun-failures

While the script is functional, there are some shell scripting best practices to address:

Line 95-96: Potentially problematic read check

if [[ ! $REPLY =~ ^[Yy]$ ]] && [[ ! -z $REPLY ]]; then

Issue: Should use -n instead of ! -z for consistency.
Suggestion:

if [[ ! $REPLY =~ ^[Yy]$ ]] && [[ -n $REPLY ]]; then

Lines using echo "$FAILED_CHECKS":
The script pipes output without quoting, which could cause word splitting issues if job names contain special characters.

Recommendation: Add shellcheck to CI for bin/ scripts to catch these automatically.


Medium: Configuration Comment Could Be More Explicit

In spec/dummy/config/initializers/react_on_rails.rb:45-46:

# Don't explicitly set generated_component_packs_loading_strategy - let it default based on Shakapacker version
# - Shakapacker >= 8.2.0: defaults to :async (optimal performance)
# - Shakapacker < 8.2.0: defaults to :defer (ensures proper component registration order)

Suggestion: Add a warning about explicitly setting this value:

# Don't explicitly set generated_component_packs_loading_strategy - let it default based on Shakapacker version
# - Shakapacker >= 8.2.0: defaults to :async (optimal performance)
# - Shakapacker < 8.2.0: defaults to :defer (ensures proper component registration order)
# WARNING: If you need to override this, ensure your main bundle loading strategy is compatible
# to avoid race conditions (see https://github.com/shakacode/react_on_rails/pull/1964)

Low: CLAUDE.md Documentation Duplication

The CLAUDE.md additions are helpful, but there's some duplication:

  • "Debugging Component Registration Issues" section appears twice (lines 137-148 and earlier)
  • Consider consolidating these sections

Low: Gemfile.lock Updates

Several dependency version bumps appear unrelated to the main fix:

  • capybara (3.39.2 → 3.40.0)
  • rack (3.2.1 → 3.2.4)
  • regexp_parser (2.8.1 → 2.11.3)
  • Addition of rbs gem

Question: Are these intentional? If not from your changes, consider running bundle install in a clean environment to verify these are necessary.


🔒 Security Considerations

✅ No security concerns identified

  • The script properly quotes variables in most places
  • No arbitrary code execution paths
  • Changes are configuration-only

⚡ Performance Considerations

✅ Performance improvements

  • Using :defer instead of :sync maintains non-blocking downloads
  • The async strategy for Shakapacker >= 8.2.0 provides optimal performance
  • No negative performance impact expected

🧪 Test Coverage

Strengths:

  • Test properly handles version-specific behavior
  • Covers both Shakapacker >= 8.2.0 and < 8.2.0 cases

Suggestion:
Consider adding an integration test that explicitly verifies the loading order when async: true is used for the main bundle. This would catch similar issues in the future.


📋 Additional Recommendations

1. RuboCop Configuration

The .rubocop.yml change excludes bin/* from linting. Since you're adding a new bash script:

  • Consider adding shellcheck to CI instead
  • Or create a separate linting rule for shell scripts

2. Error Message Clarity

The error message in lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb:173-177 is clear, but could reference this PR for context:

msg = <<~MSG
  ReactOnRails: Your current version of shakapacker \
  does not support async script loading. Please either:
  1. Use :defer or :sync loading strategy instead of :async
  2. Upgrade to Shakapacker v8.2.0 or above to enable async script loading
  See: https://github.com/shakacode/react_on_rails/pull/1964
MSG

3. Documentation Location

The bin/ci-rerun-failures script is excellent! Consider:

  • Adding usage examples to the main README
  • Creating a "Contributing" guide that highlights this tool

✅ Final Verdict

Recommend: Approve with minor suggestions

This is a well-researched PR that fixes a legitimate race condition. The changes are minimal, well-tested, and include excellent developer tooling improvements. The issues raised are mostly minor polish items that don't block the core functionality.

Priority Fixes:

  1. Clean up Gemfile.lock changes if unintentional
  2. Consider adding shellcheck for bin/ scripts

Nice-to-haves:

  1. Consolidate duplicate CLAUDE.md sections
  2. Add PR reference to error messages
  3. Document the new CI rerun script more prominently

Great work on both the fix and the developer experience improvements! 🎉

PR Review: Fix ImageExample registration failure with async script loading

Overall Assessment

This is a well-executed PR that addresses a component registration race condition while adding valuable developer tooling. The changes are logical, well-documented, and demonstrate good understanding of the underlying issue.

Code Quality ✅

Strengths:

  • Clear root cause analysis in commit messages and PR description
  • Well-structured bash scripts with proper error handling (set -euo pipefail)
  • Good use of color-coded output for developer UX
  • Comprehensive documentation updates in CLAUDE.md
  • Scripts properly excluded from RuboCop (bin/* are shell scripts)

Minor Issues:

  1. bin/ci-rerun-failures:178 - Incorrect negation logic:

    if [[ ! $REPLY =~ ^[Yy]$ ]] && [[ ! -z $REPLY ]]; then

    Should be:

    if [[ ! $REPLY =~ ^[Yy]$ ]] && [[ -n $REPLY ]]; then

    Using -n instead of ! -z is more idiomatic. Same issue in bin/ci-run-failed-specs:84.

  2. bin/ci-run-failed-specs:55 - Unquoted command substitution could cause word splitting:

    UNIQUE_SPECS=($(printf '%s\n' "${SPECS[@]}" | sort -u))

    Consider using mapfile for safer array assignment.

  3. bin/ci-rerun-failures - Missing dependency check for jq (used extensively but not validated as installed).

Potential Bugs ⚠️

  1. Configuration logic change (lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb:184):

    • Changed default from :sync to :defer for Shakapacker < 8.2.0
    • While the reasoning is sound (ensure component registration before hydration), this is a behavioral change that affects existing apps
    • Recommendation: Ensure this is documented in CHANGELOG.md as it could affect upgrade behavior
  2. bin/ci-run-failed-specs:65-70 - Working directory detection is fragile:

    if [[ "${UNIQUE_SPECS[0]}" == *"spec/system"* ]] || [[ "${UNIQUE_SPECS[0]}" == *"spec/helpers"* ]]; then

    Only checks the first spec. If specs are from mixed directories, this could fail. Consider checking all specs or being more explicit.

  3. bin/ci-rerun-failures:142-149 - Bash associative array iteration order is undefined:

    while IFS= read -r check; do
      for job_name in "${!JOB_MAP[@]}"; do

    This might match jobs inconsistently. Consider sorting or documenting the limitation.

Performance Considerations ✅

  • Scripts use sleep 30 for CI polling - reasonable for CI workloads
  • Deduplication of specs/commands prevents redundant test runs
  • Good use of early exits to avoid unnecessary work

Security Concerns 🔒

  1. eval usage (bin/ci-rerun-failures:201, bin/ci-run-failed-specs:91):

    if eval "$cmd"; then

    While the commands are hardcoded in JOB_MAP, using eval always carries risk. In this context it's acceptable since inputs are controlled, but worth noting.

  2. GH CLI authentication - Scripts assume gh is authenticated. Good error handling exists, but consider adding a note in docs about gh auth login requirement.

Test Coverage ⚠️

Missing Tests:

  • No automated tests for the new bash scripts
  • The spec change in spec/dummy/spec/helpers/react_on_rails_helper_spec.rb:86 adds conditional logic but doesn't test the :defer path explicitly for Shakapacker < 8.2.0

Recommendation: Add a test case that explicitly validates the :defer default when Shakapacker version is < 8.2.0 (mock PackerUtils.supports_async_loading? to return false).

Documentation ✅

Excellent documentation updates in CLAUDE.md:

  • Clear usage examples with expected output
  • Good explanation of when to use each tool
  • Helpful tips (pbpaste workflow)
  • Emoji usage is consistent with existing style

Best Practices

Following repo conventions:

  • ✅ Scripts have executable permissions (#!/usr/bin/env bash)
  • ✅ RuboCop exclusions properly configured
  • ✅ Commit messages follow repository style
  • ✅ Good use of heredocs for multi-line strings

Suggestions:

  1. Add shellcheck validation to CI for bash scripts
  2. Consider adding --help flag to scripts for better discoverability
  3. The --previous flag could benefit from accepting a number argument (e.g., --previous 3 to check last 3 commits)

Breaking Changes ⚠️

The change to default loading strategy (:sync:defer) for Shakapacker < 8.2.0 is technically a breaking change for apps that:

  1. Rely on immediate execution order
  2. Have custom timing expectations

Action Required: Add entry to CHANGELOG.md documenting this behavior change.

Summary

Approve with minor recommendations:

Must Fix:

  • Add CHANGELOG.md entry for the loading strategy default change

Should Fix:

  • Add dependency check for jq in scripts
  • Improve working directory detection in ci-run-failed-specs
  • Add test coverage for :defer default behavior

Nice to Have:

  • Use -n instead of ! -z for consistency
  • Add --help flag to scripts
  • Consider adding shellcheck to CI

Great work on:

  • Clear problem identification and solution
  • Developer experience improvements
  • Comprehensive documentation
  • Proper error handling in scripts

The core fix is sound and the tooling additions are valuable. The suggestions above are for polish and future maintainability.

Code Review - PR #1964: Fix ImageExample registration failure with async script loading

Summary

This PR fixes a component registration race condition introduced by async script loading and includes substantial developer experience improvements. The changes are well-structured and address the root cause effectively.


Code Quality & Best Practices ✅

Core Fix (Excellent)

File: lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb

  • Strength: The default strategy change from :sync to :defer for older Shakapacker versions is the correct fix
  • Rationale: Ensures generated component packs execute before the main bundle when async is not supported
  • Comment improvement: Lines 182-183 provide clear inline documentation explaining the behavior
  • Warning message improvement: Line 175 correctly orders :defer before :sync in the suggestion

Test Updates (Good)

File: spec/dummy/spec/helpers/react_on_rails_helper_spec.rb

  • Strength: Tests now properly validate behavior across both Shakapacker versions
  • Conditional logic: Lines 80-86 correctly test version-specific behavior
  • Suggestion: Consider extracting the version check into a shared helper to avoid duplication

Configuration Simplification (Excellent)

File: spec/dummy/config/initializers/react_on_rails.rb

  • Strength: Removing the explicit :defer setting and relying on smart defaults is the right approach
  • Documentation: Lines 45-47 provide excellent inline comments explaining the default behavior
  • Best practice: This follows the "convention over configuration" principle

Potential Issues 🔍

1. Shell Script - Dependency Handling

Files: bin/ci-rerun-failures, bin/ci-run-failed-specs

Issue: If jq is not installed or JSON is malformed, the script fails silently with cryptic errors.

Recommendation: Add dependency check at the start of each script to provide clear error messages to users.

2. OpenSSL Test Configuration - Limited Scope

File: spec/dummy/spec/support/openssl_test.cnf

Concern: The OpenSSL config disables CRL checking globally via OPENSSL_CONF environment variable (line 7 in rails_helper.rb), but as documented in TESTING_LOCALLY.md, this does not fix all Ruby networking code.

Impact: This partial fix might create confusion - developers may think the issue is resolved when it is not.

Recommendation: Consider adding a warning comment in rails_helper.rb that this fix is incomplete and developers should refer to TESTING_LOCALLY.md for the full context.


Performance Considerations ✅

Async Loading Strategy

  • Positive: The fix allows React 18 Selective Hydration to work properly with async loading
  • Optimization: Defaults to :async when Shakapacker >= 8.2.0, which is optimal for performance
  • Trade-off: Uses :defer for older versions, which is slightly slower but ensures correctness

CI Failure Scripts

  • Positive: bin/ci-rerun-failures significantly reduces developer iteration time by targeting only failed tests
  • Efficiency: Deduplicates commands to avoid running the same test suite multiple times
  • Smart: Waits for CI completion instead of requiring manual polling

Security Concerns 🔒

1. Shell Scripts - Command Execution (Low Risk)

File: bin/ci-rerun-failures

  • Commands are from a hardcoded map, not user input ✅
  • PR numbers are validated by gh CLI before use ✅
  • Using set -euo pipefail prevents common shell scripting errors ✅

Verdict: No security issues identified

2. OpenSSL Configuration - Test Environment Only

File: spec/dummy/spec/support/openssl_test.cnf

  • Disables CRL checking and sets SECLEVEL=1
  • Critical: This is ONLY for test environment (confirmed by environment variable checks)
  • Risk: Low - properly scoped to test environment only

Test Coverage ✅

Strengths

  1. Updated existing test: spec/dummy/spec/helpers/react_on_rails_helper_spec.rb now covers both Shakapacker versions
  2. Conditional expectations: Tests validate correct behavior based on version capabilities
  3. Documentation: Extensive testing documentation added to CLAUDE.md

Gaps

  1. No integration test: Could add a test that specifically validates component registration order with different loading strategies
  2. Shell scripts: No automated tests for the new CI helper scripts (acceptable for developer tools)

Additional Observations

Documentation (Excellent) 📚

  • CLAUDE.md: 144 new lines of comprehensive testing documentation
  • TESTING_LOCALLY.md: New file with detailed troubleshooting for Ruby 3.4.3 + OpenSSL issues
  • Inline comments: Clear explanations in all modified files

Developer Experience (Outstanding) 🎯

  • bin/ci-rerun-failures: Innovative script that maps CI failures to local commands
  • bin/ci-run-failed-specs: Targeted test execution from CI failures
  • Color-coded output: Excellent UX in shell scripts
  • Interactive prompts: Asks before executing (user-friendly)

RuboCop Configuration (Good)

  • Added bin/* to exclusions since these are shell scripts, not Ruby

Recommendations Summary

High Priority

  1. Add warning comment about incomplete OpenSSL workaround in rails_helper.rb
  2. Add dependency checks to shell scripts for gh and jq

Medium Priority

  1. Add integration test for component registration order
  2. Extract version check into shared test helper

Low Priority

  1. Add explanatory comment about eval safety in CI scripts

Overall Assessment

Rating: Excellent ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This PR demonstrates exceptional software engineering:

  • Root cause analysis: Correctly identified async/defer race condition
  • Proper fix: Changed defaults instead of hacking around the issue
  • Future-proof: Smart defaults based on version capabilities
  • Developer experience: Outstanding CI debugging tools
  • Documentation: Comprehensive and helpful

The code quality is high, security risks are minimal, and the developer tools provided are innovative. The few suggestions above are minor improvements rather than critical issues.

Recommendation: Approve with minor suggestions for follow-up

✅ Strengths

1. Root Cause Analysis is Excellent
The PR description clearly explains the race condition - main bundle with async:true executes immediately when downloaded, while auto-generated ImageExample pack with :defer executes after page load, causing the main bundle to try hydrating before component registration.

2. Appropriate Fix
Changing the default to :defer (line 182 in configuration.rb) ensures generated component packs load and register before main bundle execution, preventing race conditions.

3. Good Comment Documentation
The comment in configuration.rb:180-181 clearly explains the rationale for using :defer as default.

4. Comprehensive Documentation
The additions to CLAUDE.md are extremely valuable with new CI debugging tools, troubleshooting sections, and configuration switching guides.


🔍 Code Quality Observations

1. Configuration Logic Change (Important Question)

In lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb:179-182, the logic was simplified. The old logic defaulted to :async when Shakapacker >= 8.2.0, but the new logic always defaults to :defer regardless of Shakapacker version.

Question: Is this intentional? This changes behavior for users on Shakapacker >= 8.2.0 who weren't explicitly setting this config. The old code would give them :async by default, while now they'll get :defer.

2. Test Coverage
The test changes in spec/dummy/spec/helpers/react_on_rails_helper_spec.rb (8 additions, 1 deletion) should validate the new :defer default and cover the race condition scenario.

3. RuboCop Change
Line 157: Removed Metrics/PerceivedComplexity from the disable comment. Verify this passes: bundle exec rubocop lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb


🔒 Security & Performance

Security: ✅ No security concerns.

Performance: :defer maintains document order execution (better than :sync which blocks parsing). :async would provide better performance but requires careful bundle ordering. This PR prioritizes correctness over marginal performance gains, which is the right choice.


📋 Testing Recommendations

  1. Verify with both Shakapacker 8.2.0 (minimum) and 9.3.0 (latest) using bin/ci-switch-config
  2. Test the specific ImageExample scenario that was failing
  3. Verify no regressions with explicit :async or :sync configs

📝 Documentation

The new CLAUDE.md sections are excellent, especially the component registration debugging guide and CI replication tools. These bash scripts are incredibly useful for local debugging.


🎯 Final Verdict

Recommendation: Approve with Minor Clarification Needed

The PR successfully fixes the race condition and adds valuable debugging tools. I'd like confirmation that the default behavior change from :async to :defer for Shakapacker >= 8.2.0 users is intentional.

Action Items:

  1. Confirm the default change for Shakapacker >= 8.2.0 is intended
  2. Verify RuboCop passes
  3. Ensure all tests pass in both minimum and latest configs

Overall: This is a solid fix with excellent documentation. The race condition analysis is spot-on, and the new CI debugging tools are a huge developer experience improvement. 🚀

SWITCHING_CI_CONFIGS.md (3)

1-50: Add context linking this guide to PR #1964 and the component loading strategy fix.

The documentation explains how to switch CI configurations but doesn't explain why this is needed in the context of the PR that introduces it. Consider adding a brief introductory sentence or "Background" section explaining that this guide supports debugging async/defer component loading strategy mismatches (the root cause of the CI failure fixed in PR #1964).

Example addition to the introduction:

 # Switching Between CI Configurations Locally
 
 This guide explains how to switch between different CI test configurations locally to replicate CI failures.
+
+## Background
+
+Component registration and hydration behavior depends on the loading strategy (`:async` vs `:defer`) and dependency versions. This guide helps you debug CI failures that may be version-specific, such as the ImageExample component registration failure fixed in PR #1964, which required aligning async loading behavior between the main bundle and generated component packs.

54-72: Clarify that version manager auto-switching is environment-dependent.

The guide assumes that cd into the project root will trigger version switching via mise/asdf. This is true only if the shell has been properly configured. The prerequisite section explains installation but could be clearer about the automatic activation requirement.

Consider adding a note:

 # Install plugins (only needed for asdf, mise reads from mise.toml)
 asdf plugin add ruby
 asdf plugin add nodejs
+
+**Note:** Ensure your shell is properly configured to auto-switch versions. The `cd` command will trigger version switching only if mise/asdf is initialized in your shell. Verify this works by entering the project directory and running `mise current` or `asdf current`.

94-104: Clarify the purpose of script/convert and its idempotency.

The documentation states that script/convert downgrades dependencies, but it's not clear whether this script is idempotent or if it requires a clean state. Add a note explaining what the script does and any prerequisites.

 2. Run `script/convert` to downgrade dependencies:
    - Shakapacker 9.3.0 → 8.2.0
    - React 19.0.0 → 18.0.0
    - Remove ESLint and other packages incompatible with Node 20
+   This script modifies `Gemfile.development_dependencies`, `package.json`, `spec/dummy/package.json`, and related files to use minimum supported versions. It does not clean `node_modules` or `yarn.lock` before running.

Learning: When stubbing environment variables in RSpec tests, use `before` and `after` hooks to ensure that the original values are restored after the tests, preventing any side effects on other tests. Example provided by justin808:
```ruby
describe "My test" do
  before do
    original_value = ENV["VARIABLE_NAME"]
    allow(ENV).to receive(:[]).with("VARIABLE_NAME").and_return("stubbed_value")
  end

  after do
    allow(ENV).to receive(:[]).with("VARIABLE_NAME").and_call_original
    ENV["VARIABLE_NAME"] = original_value
  end

  it "tests something" do
    # Your test code here
  end
end
```
This practice ensures test isolation and reliability.

The exclusion is appropriate for shell scripts in the bin/ directory and aligns with the new CI tooling scripts added in this PR.

spec/dummy/app/views/layouts/application.html.erb (1)

12-15: LGTM! Change aligns with PR objective.

The unconditional use of defer: true ensures proper script execution order, preventing the race condition where the async main bundle attempts to hydrate ImageExample before the deferred auto-generated pack registers the component. The comment clearly explains the reasoning.

spec/dummy/spec/rails_helper.rb (1)

6-10: OpenSSL workaround is appropriate for test environment.

The workaround is clearly documented and scoped to test environment only. However, note that the effectiveness depends on the correct configuration of support/openssl_test.cnf (see concerns raised in that file's review).

CLAUDE.md (1)

51-213: LGTM! Comprehensive developer documentation.

The expanded documentation provides clear guidance for replicating CI failures locally, including workflows for the new CI tooling scripts. The content significantly improves developer experience when debugging test failures.

packages/react-on-rails/src/context.ts (1)

4-7: Review comment is incorrect - no-var was never in the disable list.

Git history shows no prior instances of no-var in the eslint-disable comment for this file. The current code correctly uses var in the declare global block (required TypeScript syntax), with only vars-on-top,no-underscore-dangle in the disable list. The review comment's premise that "no-var was removed" is factually inaccurate.

Likely an incorrect or invalid review comment.

SWITCHING_CI_CONFIGS.md (2)

5-16: No issues found. The bin/ci-switch-config script exists and correctly implements all three documented commands: status, minimum, and latest. The script interface matches the guide documentation.


151-164: Add spec/dummy/vendor/bundle to the modified files list for both configurations.

The bin/ci-switch-config script actually modifies spec/dummy/vendor/bundle in addition to the files listed in the documentation:

  • For "minimum" config: rm -rf spec/dummy/node_modules vendor/bundle and then bundle install --path=vendor/bundle
  • For "latest" config: Same operations

The documentation correctly lists all other files, but this directory is missing from both the "minimum" and "latest" sections. Add it to maintain completeness and accuracy.

Comprehensive PR Review ✅

I've completed a thorough review of this PR. Here's my detailed analysis:


🎯 Summary

This PR successfully fixes a race condition in component registration while adding valuable developer tooling. The final solution (after multiple iterations in the commit history) changes the default loading strategy to :defer for all cases, ensuring deterministic script execution order.


✅ Core Fix Analysis

The Problem (Well Diagnosed)

The PR description accurately identifies the race condition: when the main bundle uses async: true and generated component packs use :defer, the main bundle can execute before components are registered, causing hydration failures.

The Solution Evolution

Looking at the commit history, the fix went through several iterations:

  1. Initial attempt (539c35c): Changed config from :defer to :async - wrong direction
  2. Correct fix (4faf810): Changed both the default strategy AND the layout to use defer: true
  3. Final state: Default is now :defer regardless of Shakapacker version

Why This Works

Using defer for both the main bundle and component packs ensures scripts execute in DOM order:

  1. Generated component packs load and register components
  2. Main bundle executes and finds all registered components
  3. React hydration succeeds

🔍 Code Quality Review

lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb

Strengths:

  • ✅ Clear logic: defaults to :defer when nil
  • ✅ Good error message ordering (:defer before :sync)
  • ✅ Removed unnecessary warning for older Shakapacker versions
  • ✅ Excellent inline comments explaining the rationale (lines 180-181)

Observations:

  • The previous logic was more complex, trying to be "smart" about defaulting to :async for newer Shakapacker versions
  • The new approach is simpler and safer: always default to :defer unless explicitly configured
  • This is a behavioral change for users on Shakapacker >= 8.2.0 who weren't explicitly setting this config (they previously got :async by default, now get :defer)

Question for consideration:

  • Is there a performance trade-off in always using :defer vs :async for newer Shakapacker versions?
  • The comments mention :defer ensures proper execution order, but :async can provide better perceived performance
  • This seems like a conscious trade-off of "correctness over micro-optimization" which is appropriate

spec/dummy/app/views/layouts/application.html.erb

Strengths:

  • ✅ Simplified from conditional logic to unconditional defer: true
  • ✅ Clear comment explaining the rationale
  • ✅ Removes Redux-specific conditional (was added in commit ee80bc2, now removed in 4faf810)

Concern:

  • The PR description says the fix is changing the config default, but the layout change is also critical to the fix
  • The dummy app now uses defer: true explicitly in the layout, which means it's not testing the auto-generated pack loading strategy in the same way production apps would

Test Updates

spec/react_on_rails/configuration_spec.rb:

  • ✅ Tests updated to expect :defer as default for both Shakapacker >= 8.2.0 and < 8.2.0
  • ✅ Removed warning expectation (no longer logs warning)
  • ✅ Still tests explicit :async, :defer, and :sync values

spec/dummy/spec/helpers/react_on_rails_helper_spec.rb:

  • ✅ Test now expects defer: true regardless of Shakapacker version
  • ✅ Good explanatory comment added (lines 80-81)

🆕 Developer Tooling (Excellent Additions!)

bin/ci-rerun-failures

Strengths:

  • ✅ Well-structured bash script with proper error handling (set -euo pipefail)
  • ✅ Color-coded output for better UX
  • ✅ Comprehensive help message
  • ✅ Handles in-progress CI jobs (polls every 30s)
  • ✅ Maps GitHub CI job names to local rake commands
  • ✅ Supports --previous flag to search recent commits
  • ✅ Deduplicates commands before running

Potential Issues:

  • ⚠️ Line 154: Uses jq but doesn't check if it's installed
  • ⚠️ Lines 154-171: If .statusCheckRollup is null (before CI starts), jq will error. Should use (.statusCheckRollup // []) to handle null gracefully

bin/ci-run-failed-specs

Strengths:

  • ✅ Clever script to extract failed RSpec examples from CI output
  • ✅ Works with piped input (pbpaste | bin/ci-run-failed-specs)
  • ✅ Deduplicates spec paths
  • ✅ Auto-detects whether to run from spec/dummy

Potential Issue:

  • ⚠️ Lines 135-141: Interactive read prompt will fail when stdin is piped (e.g., pbpaste |). Should check for TTY: if [[ -t 0 ]]; then read ...; fi

bin/ci-switch-config

Strengths:

  • ✅ Valuable tool for testing against minimum vs latest dependencies
  • ✅ Clear status reporting
  • ✅ Properly handles version manager differences (mise vs asdf)

📚 Documentation Review

CLAUDE.md

Strengths:

  • ✅ 163 new lines of excellent documentation
  • ✅ Clear sections on CI debugging workflows
  • ✅ Good examples with expected output
  • ✅ Links to related tools

SWITCHING_CI_CONFIGS.md (New File)

Strengths:

  • ✅ Comprehensive 299-line guide
  • ✅ Clear explanation of minimum vs latest configurations
  • ✅ Step-by-step instructions with examples
  • ✅ Troubleshooting section

Issue Found:

  • ❌ Lines 109, 139, 177, 223, 270: Contains hardcoded developer-specific path /Users/justin/conductor/react_on_rails/.conductor/kuwait-v1
  • 🔧 Action Required: Replace with generic instructions like "navigate to your project root"

spec/dummy/TESTING_LOCALLY.md (New File)

Strengths:

  • ✅ Documents the Ruby 3.4.3 + OpenSSL 3.6 issue clearly
  • ✅ Provides workarounds and recommendations
  • ✅ Advises using CI as source of truth for system tests

Minor Issue:

  • Line 73: Bare URL should be formatted as markdown link

spec/dummy/spec/support/openssl_test.cnf (New File)

Critical Issue:

  • ❌ Lines 19-21: The [CRL] section is defined but never referenced in the configuration chain
  • ❌ OpenSSL won't process unreferenced sections, so crl_check = no has no effect
  • 🔧 Action Required: CRL settings need to be in the [system_default_sect] section or properly referenced

🐛 Issues Found

Critical Issues

  1. CI Lint Failure

    • Current CI shows "Lint JS and Ruby" job failed
    • Need to run yarn run lint to identify and fix JS lint issues
    • Per CLAUDE.md: "MANDATORY BEFORE GIT PUSH: bundle exec rubocop and fix ALL violations"
  2. Hardcoded Paths in Documentation

    • SWITCHING_CI_CONFIGS.md contains Justin's personal machine paths in 5 locations
    • Will confuse/fail for other developers
  3. OpenSSL Config Ineffective (spec/dummy/spec/support/openssl_test.cnf)

    • The CRL section isn't referenced, so CRL checking isn't actually disabled
    • This explains why the TESTING_LOCALLY.md says the workaround is incomplete

Medium Priority Issues

  1. Script Robustness (bin/ci-rerun-failures)

    • Missing dependency check for jq
    • Doesn't handle null statusCheckRollup gracefully (before CI starts)
  2. Script UX Issue (bin/ci-run-failed-specs)

    • Interactive prompt fails with piped input due to closed stdin
    • Should check for TTY before prompting

Minor Issues

  1. Markdown Formatting
    • TESTING_LOCALLY.md line 73: bare URL should be markdown link
    • CLAUDE.md line 96: fenced code block missing language specifier

💡 Architectural Observations

Behavioral Change

This PR changes default behavior for all users:

  • Before: Users with Shakapacker >= 8.2.0 got :async by default (performance-optimized)
  • After: All users get :defer by default (correctness-optimized)

Impact Assessment:

  • Positive: Eliminates race conditions, ensures correctness
  • ⚠️ Trade-off: Slight performance cost (:defer blocks parsing until HTML complete, but is non-blocking for download)
  • 📝 Recommendation: Consider adding a note in CHANGELOG.md about this behavioral change

Design Decision

The PR simplifies the "smart defaults" approach in favor of a single safe default. This is good engineering:

  • Fewer edge cases to test
  • More predictable behavior
  • Easier to document and understand
  • Only users who explicitly need :async (and understand the implications) should use it

🧪 Testing Assessment

Test Coverage

  • ✅ Configuration tests updated for new default
  • ✅ Helper tests verify correct pack loading options
  • ✅ Tests cover both Shakapacker versions
  • ✅ No new tests needed for the core fix itself

Missing Test Coverage

  • ❌ No automated tests for the new bash scripts (acceptable for developer tools)
  • ❌ No integration test specifically for the race condition scenario

📋 Recommendations

Must Fix Before Merge

  1. Fix CI Lint Failure

    yarn run lint  # Identify issues
    rake autofix   # Auto-fix formatting
    bundle exec rubocop  # Verify Ruby lint passes
  2. Fix Hardcoded Paths

    • Replace 5 instances of /Users/justin/conductor/react_on_rails/.conductor/kuwait-v1 in SWITCHING_CI_CONFIGS.md
  3. Fix OpenSSL Config

    • Move CRL settings into [system_default_sect] or remove the non-functional [CRL] section with a comment explaining why it doesn't work

Should Fix

  1. Improve Script Robustness

    • Add jq dependency check to bin/ci-rerun-failures
    • Use .statusCheckRollup // [] for null handling
    • Fix TTY check in bin/ci-run-failed-specs for piped input
  2. Add CHANGELOG Entry

    • Document the behavioral change (default loading strategy change)
    • Per CLAUDE.md format: [PR 1964](https://github.com/shakacode/react_on_rails/pull/1964) by [justin808](https://github.com/justin808)

19-20: Suppressing the deprecation warning doesn't resolve the underlying issue.

A previous review already flagged that tsEslint.config() is deprecated and provided detailed migration guidance to use ESLint core's defineConfig() instead. Adding a lint suppression comment defers this technical debt—when the deprecated API is removed in a future typescript-eslint release, this code will break.

Migrate now per the previous review's guidance rather than accumulating technical debt.

🧹 Nitpick comments (1)

34-34: Good practice addition, but unrelated to PR objectives.

The --report-unused-disable-directives flag is a beneficial code quality improvement that helps prevent accumulation of stale ESLint disable comments. However, this change appears unrelated to the stated PR objective of fixing the ImageExample registration failure with async script loading. Consider whether this should be part of a separate housekeeping PR for clarity.

SWITCHING_CI_CONFIGS.md (1)

1-299: Documentation structure and clarity are excellent.

This is well-organized, progressive documentation that clearly guides developers through CI configuration switching. The progression from Quick Start → Detailed Usage → Troubleshooting is logical, code blocks are properly formatted, and the integration with related CI debugging tools is well documented. The hardcoded developer paths issue from the prior review has been successfully addressed with generic <project-root> placeholders.

Since the documentation references specific scripts and version numbers that I cannot verify against their implementations, please confirm:

  1. The version numbers (Ruby 3.2.8, Node 20.18.1, etc.) match what bin/ci-switch-config actually uses
  2. The commands and file modifications documented (lines 94–103, 127–133) match what script/convert performs
  3. The workflow and output expectations are accurate

You can verify by running the scripts once and comparing their actual behavior to the documented instructions.

packages/react-on-rails/src/context.ts (1)

4-7: Changes to global declarations are safe and appropriate.

The search confirms that all runtime code assigns to globalThis.ReactOnRails and globalThis.__REACT_ON_RAILS_EVENT_HANDLERS_RAN_ONCE__, and all access patterns use globalThis directly or rely on scope resolution—not property-style access via window. The old bundled test fixtures that show window.ReactOnRails access are legacy artifacts, not active code paths.

The modernization from var to let is valid here because:

  • The runtime assignment uses globalThis.ReactOnRails = (works with both declaration types)
  • All code accesses these via globalThis or direct name, not as window properties
  • ESLint suppressions are correctly narrowed to only no-underscore-dangle

Code Review - PR #1964

Summary

This PR fixes a critical ImageExample registration race condition and adds comprehensive CI debugging tooling. The changes are well-structured and the documentation is excellent. CI tests are still in progress but the code quality is high.


✅ Strengths

1. Core Bug Fix - Excellent Root Cause Analysis

The fix for the ImageExample registration issue is spot-on:

  • Problem: Race condition between async main bundle and deferred component packs
  • Solution: Changed default from :async to :defer for generated_component_packs_loading_strategy
  • Files: lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb:182, spec/dummy/config/initializers/react_on_rails.rb:45-46

The comment in the config file clearly explains the reasoning:

# Don't explicitly set generated_component_packs_loading_strategy - let it default to :defer
# which ensures generated component packs load and register components before main bundle executes

2. Outstanding CI Debugging Scripts

The three new scripts are production-quality developer tools:

bin/ci-switch-config:

  • Seamlessly switches between minimum (Ruby 3.2, Node 20, Shakapacker 8.2.0) and latest configs
  • Excellent version manager detection (mise/asdf)
  • Clear status reporting
  • Good error handling

bin/ci-rerun-failures:

  • Fetches actual CI failures via GitHub CLI
  • Smart polling for in-progress jobs
  • Maps CI job names to local commands
  • Prevents waiting for CI - promotes local testing

bin/ci-run-failed-specs:

  • Parses RSpec failure output automatically
  • Deduplicates specs
  • Auto-detects working directory
  • Great UX with colored output

All scripts have:

  • Comprehensive help text (--help)
  • Proper error handling (set -euo pipefail)
  • User confirmations before destructive actions
  • Clear colored output for readability

3. Comprehensive Documentation

  • CLAUDE.md: Added 163 lines of CI debugging guidance with examples
  • SWITCHING_CI_CONFIGS.md: 299 lines covering setup, workflows, troubleshooting
  • TESTING_VERIFICATION.md: Complete testing verification report
  • spec/dummy/TESTING_LOCALLY.md: Documents known SSL issues with OpenSSL 3.6

All documentation follows best practices:

  • Clear usage examples
  • Troubleshooting sections
  • Cross-references between related tools
  • Workflow-oriented guidance

4. Test Quality

The test changes in spec/react_on_rails/configuration_spec.rb properly validate the new default behavior:

it "defaults to :defer" do
  ReactOnRails.configure {}
  expect(ReactOnRails.configuration.generated_component_packs_loading_strategy).to eq(:defer)
end

Tests cover both Shakapacker >= 8.2.0 and < 8.2.0 scenarios.


🔍 Areas for Consideration

1. Security - Shell Script Input Validation

File: bin/ci-run-failed-specs:144

Using eval with user-controlled input (from stdin/clipboard) could be a security risk if malicious RSpec output is crafted.

Recommendation: Consider sanitizing spec paths before eval to prevent injection attacks.

Severity: Low (requires malicious input from developer's own clipboard/CI output)

2. Configuration Default Change - Breaking Change

Files: lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb:179-182

The default generated_component_packs_loading_strategy changed from :async to :defer. This is a breaking change for users who:

  • Rely on async loading behavior
  • Have custom timing expectations
  • Use React 18's Selective Hydration features

Recommendations:

  1. Already done: Update CHANGELOG.md to highlight this as a breaking change
  2. Already done: Document the reasoning in comments
  3. Consider: Add a migration guide in release notes

3. Script Portability

Files: All bin/ci-* scripts

pbpaste is macOS-only. Linux users would use xclip -o or xsel -b.

Recommendation: Add to documentation cross-platform alternatives for clipboard access.

Severity: Minor (docs could mention alternatives)

4. RuboCop Configuration

File: .rubocop.yml:28

- 'bin/*'  # Shell scripts

Good addition! Shell scripts should be excluded from Ruby linting. However, this excludes ALL files in bin/, including any Ruby scripts.

Recommendation: Consider being more specific (e.g., bin/ci-*) to only exclude shell scripts.

Severity: Very Minor


🎯 Performance Considerations

Loading Strategy Performance Impact

Changing from :async to :defer affects page load performance:

  • :async: Scripts execute immediately when downloaded (non-blocking download, may execute out of order)
  • :defer: Scripts execute in order after HTML parsing, before DOMContentLoaded

Impact: Minimal negative performance impact. :defer ensures components register before hydration, which is more important than shaving a few milliseconds off load time. The fix prevents runtime errors, which is the right trade-off.

Script Efficiency

The CI debugging scripts use efficient techniques:

  • jq for JSON parsing instead of complex shell regex
  • Proper quoting and parameter expansion
  • Deduplication to avoid redundant work

🔒 Security Assessment

Overall Security: ✅ Good

  1. Shell scripts use set -euo pipefail - Excellent safety practice
  2. GitHub CLI authentication - Uses existing gh auth, no credential exposure
  3. Git operations - Uses standard git commands, no dangerous flags
  4. File operations - Properly quoted paths, handles spaces correctly
  5. User confirmations - Prevents accidental destructive actions

Minor risk: eval usage in bin/ci-run-failed-specs


📝 Test Coverage

What's Tested:

  • ✅ Default loading strategy for both Shakapacker versions
  • ✅ Validation of :async, :defer, :sync values
  • ✅ Error handling for invalid values
  • ✅ Deprecation warnings for old defer_generated_component_packs config
  • enforce_private_server_bundles validation

Test Coverage: ✅ Adequate for the changes made


🏗️ Code Quality

Ruby Code: ✅ Excellent

  • Follows Ruby/Rails conventions
  • Proper use of private methods
  • Clear variable naming
  • Good comments explaining "why" not just "what"

Shell Scripts: ✅ Very Good

  • Modern bash practices (set -euo pipefail)
  • Proper error handling
  • User-friendly output with colors
  • Comprehensive help text

TypeScript/JS Changes: ✅ Minimal and Clean

  • packages/react-on-rails/src/context.ts: Minor formatting changes only
  • No logic changes to JS/TS code

🎨 Best Practices Followed

  1. Git Hooks: Pre-commit hooks ensure linting before commit
  2. Formatting: Prettier/RuboCop handle all formatting
  3. Documentation: Excellent inline comments and external docs
  4. Testing: Tests updated to reflect new behavior
  5. Changelog: Format follows project conventions
  6. Commit Messages: Clear and descriptive
  7. Error Messages: Helpful and actionable

🚀 Recommendations

Must Do (Before Merge):

  1. Wait for CI to pass - Several jobs still running
  2. Update CHANGELOG.md - Add entry for the breaking change to generated_component_packs_loading_strategy default

Should Consider:

  1. Add validation to bin/ci-run-failed-specs to prevent eval injection (low priority)
  2. Document pbpaste alternatives for Linux users in CLAUDE.md
  3. Consider more specific RuboCop exclusion pattern

Nice to Have:

  1. Add integration test for component registration timing
  2. Create a video demo of the CI debugging workflow
  3. Add shell completion scripts for the new CLI tools

📊 Final Assessment

Category Rating Notes
Code Quality ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent
Documentation ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding - comprehensive guides
Test Coverage ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Good coverage of changed code
Security ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Good, minor eval concern
Performance ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Correct trade-off for reliability
Best Practices ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exemplary use of project standards

Overall: ✅ Approve with Minor Suggestions

This is a high-quality PR that:

  • Fixes a critical race condition with a well-reasoned solution
  • Adds excellent developer tooling that will improve the development experience
  • Includes comprehensive documentation
  • Follows all project conventions

The CI debugging scripts are particularly impressive - they demonstrate deep understanding of the development workflow and will significantly reduce debugging time for contributors.

Recommendation: Approve once CI passes. The minor suggestions above are optional improvements, not blockers.


💡 Kudos

Special recognition for:

Comprehensive Code Review

I've completed a thorough review of PR #1964. This PR successfully fixes a race condition in component registration and adds excellent CI debugging tooling. Below is my detailed analysis.


Executive Summary

Verdict: ✅ Approve with Minor Observations

This is a well-executed PR that:

  • ✅ Correctly fixes the ImageExample registration race condition
  • ✅ Adds outstanding developer tooling (CI debugging scripts)
  • ✅ Includes comprehensive documentation
  • ✅ Updates tests appropriately
  • ✅ Follows all repository conventions

CI Status: 5/10 checks passed, 5 in progress (no failures yet)


Core Fix Analysis

The Problem (Excellent Diagnosis)

The PR description accurately identifies the race condition:

  • Main bundle loads with async: true → executes immediately when downloaded
  • Generated component packs load with :defer → execute after page load
  • Result: Main bundle tries to hydrate before components are registered

The Solution (lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb:179-182)

Changes:

# Old: Complex version-dependent logic
# New: Simple, safe default
if generated_component_packs_loading_strategy.nil?
  # Use defer as the default to ensure generated component packs load and register
  # components before main bundle executes, avoiding race conditions with async loading
  self.generated_component_packs_loading_strategy = :defer

Why This Works:

  • Using :defer for all cases ensures deterministic script execution order
  • Generated component packs register components before main bundle executes
  • Prevents race conditions regardless of Shakapacker version
  • Trades marginal performance gain (:async) for correctness

Trade-offs:

  • :defer is slightly slower than :async (waits for HTML parsing to complete)
  • However, :defer is still non-blocking during download
  • The correctness gain far outweighs the negligible performance cost

Layout Changes (spec/dummy/app/views/layouts/application.html.erb:12-15)

The dummy app now uses defer: true explicitly:

<%= append_javascript_pack_tag("client-bundle", defer: true) %>

This ensures the main bundle and generated packs execute in DOM order.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) - Correct solution, well-reasoned, properly implemented


Test Coverage Analysis

Configuration Tests (spec/react_on_rails/configuration_spec.rb)

Changes:

  • Updated to expect :defer as default for both Shakapacker >= 8.2.0 and < 8.2.0
  • Removed old warning expectations
  • Tests now validate the simplified logic

Coverage:

it "defaults to :defer" do
  ReactOnRails.configure {}
  expect(ReactOnRails.configuration.generated_component_packs_loading_strategy).to eq(:defer)
end

Strengths:

  • ✅ Tests cover all three valid strategies (:async, :defer, :sync)
  • ✅ Tests validate error handling for invalid values
  • ✅ Version-specific behavior is tested via stubbing PackerUtils

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5) - Good coverage, could add integration test for actual timing


New CI Debugging Scripts

1. bin/ci-rerun-failures (269 lines)

Purpose: Fetch failed CI jobs from GitHub and re-run them locally

Excellent Features:

  • ✅ Fetches actual failures via gh CLI (not guessing)
  • ✅ Handles in-progress jobs (polls every 30s)
  • ✅ Maps CI job names to local commands automatically
  • ✅ Deduplicates commands
  • --previous flag to search recent commits
  • ✅ Clear colored output
  • ✅ Interactive confirmation prompts

Code Quality:

  • ✅ Uses set -euo pipefail (proper error handling)
  • ✅ Comprehensive help text
  • ✅ Good job-to-command mapping

Issues Found from Previous Reviews:

Issue #1: Missing jq null handling (CRITICAL) ❌

Location: Lines 132, 143-144, 153

Problem: When .statusCheckRollup is null (before CI starts), jq will error:

IN_PROGRESS_COUNT=$(echo "$STATUS_JSON" | jq '[.statusCheckRollup[] | select(...)] | length')
# Error: Cannot iterate over null

Impact: Script crashes with cryptic error when run on PRs where CI hasn't started yet

Fix Needed:

# Add null coalescing:
IN_PROGRESS_COUNT=$(echo "$STATUS_JSON" | jq '[(.statusCheckRollup // [])[] | select(...)] | length')
FAILED_CHECKS=$(echo "$STATUS_JSON" | jq -r '(.statusCheckRollup // [])[] | select(...) | .name')

This was flagged in CodeRabbit's review but not yet fixed in the latest commit.

Issue #2: Missing jq dependency check

Severity: Medium

The script uses jq extensively but doesn't verify it's installed. Add at the start:

if ! command -v jq &> /dev/null; then
  echo -e "${RED}Error: jq is required but not installed${NC}"
  echo "Install: brew install jq"
  exit 1
fi

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5) - Excellent tool with one critical bug that needs fixing


2. bin/ci-run-failed-specs (154 lines)

Purpose: Parse RSpec failure output and re-run only failed examples

Excellent Features:

  • ✅ Parses CI output automatically
  • ✅ Deduplicates spec paths
  • ✅ Auto-detects working directory (spec/dummy vs root)
  • ✅ Works with piped input (pbpaste | bin/ci-run-failed-specs)

Issues Found from Previous Reviews:

Issue #1: Interactive prompt with piped input (CRITICAL) ❌

Location: Lines 135-141

Problem: When stdin is piped (pbpaste |), the read command fails:

read -p "Run these specs now? [Y/n] " -n 1 -r
# Error: stdin is closed, read exits with status 1
# With set -euo pipefail, script aborts

Impact: Script crashes in its primary use case (piping from clipboard)

Fix Needed:

if [[ -t 0 ]]; then
  read -p "Run these specs now? [Y/n] " -n 1 -r
  echo
else
  REPLY="y"
  echo "Run these specs now? [Y/n] y"
fi

This was flagged in CodeRabbit's review but not yet fixed in the latest commit.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5) - Excellent tool with one critical bug that needs fixing


3. bin/ci-switch-config (285 lines)

Purpose: Switch between minimum (Ruby 3.2, Node 20) and latest (Ruby 3.4, Node 22) configurations

Excellent Features:

  • ✅ Handles both mise and asdf version managers
  • ✅ Clear status reporting
  • ✅ Proper error handling
  • ✅ Good user feedback

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) - Well-implemented, no issues found


Documentation Review

1. CLAUDE.md (+163 lines)

Additions:

  • Comprehensive section on CI debugging workflows
  • Clear examples with expected output
  • Good integration with new scripts

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) - Outstanding documentation

2. SWITCHING_CI_CONFIGS.md (New file, 299 lines)

Content:

  • Step-by-step guide for switching CI configurations
  • Prerequisites, usage, troubleshooting
  • Well-organized with clear sections

Issues Found from Previous Reviews:

Issue #1: Hardcoded developer paths (RESOLVED ✅)

Previous Issue: Lines had /Users/justin/conductor/react_on_rails/.conductor/kuwait-v1

Status: FIXED in commit e215d2b - now uses generic <project-root> placeholder

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) - Excellent, comprehensive guide

3. spec/dummy/TESTING_LOCALLY.md (New file, 73 lines)

Content:

  • Documents Ruby 3.4.3 + OpenSSL 3.6 SSL issues
  • Provides workarounds and recommendations
  • Clear explanation that it's environment-specific, not code issues

Minor Issue:

  • Line 73: Bare URL should be formatted as markdown link
    # Current:
    This issue is tracked in: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/20385
    
    # Better:
    This issue is tracked in [OpenSSL issue #20385](https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/20385)

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5) - Good documentation, minor formatting issue

4. TESTING_VERIFICATION.md (New file, 216 lines)

Comprehensive testing verification report documenting test results across configurations.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) - Thorough verification documentation


OpenSSL Configuration Issue

spec/dummy/spec/support/openssl_test.cnf

Problem Identified: The [CRL] section (lines 19-21) is not referenced in the configuration chain and will be ignored by OpenSSL.

[CRL]
crl_check = no          # ← Not processed
crl_check_all = no      # ← Not processed

Why: OpenSSL only processes sections that are explicitly referenced. The configuration chain is:

openssl_init → ssl_sect → system_default_sect

The [CRL] section is orphaned.

Impact: CRL checking is not actually disabled, which explains why TESTING_LOCALLY.md says "the workaround doesn't fix all Ruby networking code."

Recommendation: Either:

  1. Move CRL settings into [system_default_sect] (proper fix)
  2. Add a comment explaining this is a partial workaround and document the limitation
  3. Remove the ineffective [CRL] section to avoid confusion

This was flagged in CodeRabbit's review but not yet addressed.

Severity: Medium - Misleading configuration (appears to work but doesn't)


Code Quality & Style

Ruby Code (lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb)

  • ✅ Follows Ruby/Rails conventions
  • ✅ Clear variable naming
  • ✅ Excellent inline comments explaining "why"
  • ✅ Proper error messages

Shell Scripts

  • ✅ Modern bash practices (set -euo pipefail)
  • ✅ Color-coded output
  • ✅ Comprehensive help text
  • ✅ Good error handling (except the two bugs noted above)

TypeScript/JS (packages/react-on-rails/src/context.ts)

  • ✅ Minimal changes (formatting only)
  • ✅ ESLint disable comments properly scoped

Security Assessment

Overall: ✅ Good

  1. Shell scripts use safe practices:

    • ✅ Proper quoting of variables
    • ✅ No arbitrary code execution from user input
    • ✅ Command map is hardcoded (not user-controlled)
  2. Git operations:

    • ✅ Uses standard git commands
    • ✅ No force push or dangerous flags
  3. OpenSSL config:

    • ⚠️ Sets SECLEVEL=1 (reduces security level)
    • ✅ BUT scoped to test environment only
    • ✅ Acceptable for test environment

No security concerns blocking merge.


Performance Analysis

Loading Strategy Performance Impact

Trade-off:

  • :async: Scripts execute immediately when downloaded (fastest, but race-prone)
  • :defer: Scripts execute in DOM order after parsing (slightly slower, deterministic)
  • :sync: Blocks parsing during download (slowest, most deterministic)

This PR's Choice: :defer as default

Performance Cost: Minimal (< 50ms in most cases)
Correctness Gain: Eliminates race conditions

Verdict: ✅ Correct trade-off - reliability > marginal performance


Changelog Compliance

Per CLAUDE.md guidelines:

Update CHANGELOG.md for user-visible changes only (features, bug fixes, breaking changes)

This PR should have a changelog entry:

Type: Bug fix + Breaking change
Reason:

  1. Fixes component registration failure (bug fix)
  2. Changes default behavior for all users (breaking change)

Suggested entry:

#### Bug Fixes
- Fixed race condition causing component registration failures with async script loading. Changed default `generated_component_packs_loading_strategy` from version-dependent (`:async` for Shakapacker >= 8.2.0, `:sync` for older) to `:defer` for all versions to ensure deterministic script execution order. [PR 1964](https://github.com/shakacode/react_on_rails/pull/1964) by [justin808](https://github.com/justin808)

Note: I don't see a CHANGELOG.md update in this PR. Per repo guidelines, this should be added.

  1. Consider adding integration test for component registration timing
  2. Add shellcheck to CI for bash scripts
  3. Create video demo of CI debugging workflow

Final Verdict

✅ Approve with Required Fixes

Core Fix: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) - Excellent
Developer Tooling: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5) - Outstanding, but 2 critical bugs
Documentation: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) - Comprehensive
Test Coverage: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5) - Good
Code Quality: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) - Exemplary

Overall Assessment:

This is a high-quality PR that correctly fixes a legitimate race condition and provides excellent developer experience improvements. The CI debugging scripts are innovative and will significantly reduce debugging time.

However, the two critical bugs in the bash scripts will cause user-facing failures in common use cases (new PRs, piped input). These must be fixed before the scripts can be considered production-ready.

The core configuration fix is solid and ready to merge. The blocking issues are in the auxiliary tooling.


Kudos 🎉

Special recognition for:

  1. Root cause analysis - Excellent diagnosis of the race condition
  2. Developer experience - The CI debugging tools are game-changing
  3. Documentation quality - Tutorial-level quality guides
  4. Commit discipline - 24 commits show iterative refinement and attention to feedback

Great work on this PR! The issues noted are fixable and the overall direction is excellent.

PR Review: Fix ImageExample Registration Failure with Async Script Loading

Thank you for this comprehensive PR! I've reviewed the changes and here's my detailed feedback:


Strengths

1. Excellent Root Cause Analysis

The PR description clearly identifies the race condition introduced in commit ee80bc2:

  • Main bundle loading with async: true executes immediately
  • Generated component packs with :defer execute after page load
  • This creates a timing issue where components aren't registered when hydration occurs

2. Correct Fix

Changing the default generated_component_packs_loading_strategy from :async to :defer is the right approach:

  • lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb:180-182 - The default now ensures component packs load and register before the main bundle executes
  • The comment explains the rationale clearly: "avoid race conditions with async loading"
  • This aligns with the framework's design principle of ensuring components are registered before hydration

3. Comprehensive Documentation

The PR adds excellent developer tooling documentation:

  • CLAUDE.md - 163 lines of CI debugging guidance
  • SWITCHING_CI_CONFIGS.md - 299 lines detailing how to switch between latest/minimum CI configurations
  • TESTING_VERIFICATION.md - 216 lines documenting test results and verification
  • Three new CI helper scripts that automate failure detection and re-running

4. Test Coverage

  • Updated tests correctly reflect the new default behavior (spec/react_on_rails/configuration_spec.rb:287, 335)
  • Added OpenSSL configuration workaround for local testing (spec/dummy/spec/rails_helper.rb:6-10)
  • Test helpers properly reset configuration state (spec/dummy/spec/helpers/react_on_rails_helper_spec.rb:41-49)

🔍 Potential Issues & Suggestions

1. Breaking Change Communication ⚠️

This is a breaking change for users who:

  • Explicitly rely on the old default behavior (:async for Shakapacker >= 8.2.0)
  • Have component registration timing dependencies

Recommendation:

  • Add a migration guide in the CHANGELOG explaining:
    • Why the default changed
    • How to opt back into :async if needed
    • What symptoms indicate this affects them (component registration errors)

2. Configuration Validation Logic

In lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb:158-190, the validation is solid but could be clearer:

# Current (line 179-182)
if generated_component_packs_loading_strategy.nil?
  # Use defer as the default to ensure generated component packs load and register
  # components before main bundle executes, avoiding race conditions with async loading
  self.generated_component_packs_loading_strategy = :defer

Suggestion: Consider adding a note about when users might want :async instead:

# Use :defer as the default to ensure generated component packs load and register
# components before main bundle executes, avoiding race conditions with async loading.
# Set to :async explicitly if your main bundle also uses async and you need parallel loading.

3. Test Environment OpenSSL Workaround

The OpenSSL configuration workaround (spec/dummy/spec/rails_helper.rb:6-10) is well-documented, but:

Concern: This masks potential SSL issues in tests
Recommendation:

  • Ensure this is only active in test environment
  • Consider adding a CI check that this workaround is still needed (it should be removed when OpenSSL/Ruby fixes the issue)

4. Documentation Scope

While the new documentation is excellent, this PR mixes:

  • A critical bug fix (component registration)
  • Extensive developer tooling improvements (CI scripts)
  • Documentation enhancements

Suggestion: Consider splitting future PRs:

  • Bug fixes separate from tooling improvements
  • Makes it easier to cherry-pick or revert specific changes
  • Though for this PR, it makes sense given the CI failures prompted the tooling improvements

🔒 Security Review

No security concerns identified

  • Shell scripts properly quote variables and use set -e for error handling
  • No credential exposure
  • No unsafe file operations
  • Scripts use standard GitHub CLI authentication

🎯 Performance Considerations

Positive Impact:

  • :defer vs :async has minimal performance difference for small component packs
  • Eliminates race conditions which could cause re-renders or hydration mismatches

Neutral:

  • The change may slightly delay time-to-interactive if component packs are large
  • Users with performance-critical scenarios can explicitly opt into :async if they manage dependencies correctly

📋 Test Coverage Assessment

Good:

  • ✅ Unit tests updated to reflect new defaults
  • ✅ Configuration validation tests cover all valid values (:async, :defer, :sync)
  • ✅ Error cases tested (invalid values, Shakapacker version mismatches)

Could Be Enhanced:

  • ⚠️ No integration test demonstrating the race condition was actually fixed
  • ⚠️ Consider adding a test that verifies components are registered before hydration with the new default
  • ⚠️ The CI helper scripts lack automated tests (though they're dev tools, so lower priority)

🏗️ Code Quality

Excellent:

  • ✅ Follows RuboCop and ESLint rules
  • ✅ Clear comments explaining non-obvious decisions
  • ✅ Consistent code style
  • ✅ Proper error messages with actionable guidance

Minor Issues:

  • The shell scripts in bin/ are now excluded from RuboCop (.rubocop.yml:28)
    • This is reasonable since they're bash, but ensure they follow shellcheck standards
    • Consider running shellcheck bin/ci-* as part of CI

Recommendations Summary

Must Address Before Merge:

None - the core fix is solid and safe

Should Consider:

  1. Add CHANGELOG entry with migration guidance for the breaking change
  2. Add shellcheck validation for new bash scripts in CI
  3. Document when to use :async vs :defer in the configuration guide

Nice to Have:

  1. Consider an integration test demonstrating the fix
  2. Add a CI check to verify OpenSSL workaround is still needed
  3. Consider splitting large documentation PRs in the future

🎉 Overall Assessment

Rating: Excellent (9/10)

This PR:

  • ✅ Fixes a critical race condition with a well-reasoned approach
  • ✅ Maintains backward compatibility (users can override if needed)
  • ✅ Adds valuable developer tooling
  • ✅ Includes comprehensive documentation
  • ✅ Follows project conventions and style guidelines

The default change from :async to :defer is the correct architectural decision for a framework that needs to guarantee component registration before hydration. The slight reduction in theoretical parallelism is far outweighed by the elimination of race conditions.

Recommendation: Approve with minor suggestions

The code is ready to merge. The suggestions above are enhancements rather than blockers.

132-150: Handle PRs with no status checks.

gh pr view --json statusCheckRollup returns null before CI kicks off. Every .statusCheckRollup[] here throws Cannot iterate over null, and with set -euo pipefail the script dies before reporting anything. Coalesce to an empty array so new/clean commits still work.

Apply this diff (covers all uses in this section):

-IN_PROGRESS_COUNT=$(echo "$STATUS_JSON" | jq '[.statusCheckRollup[] | select(.status == "IN_PROGRESS")] | length')

The script checks if node_modules and vendor/bundle directories exist, but doesn't verify they're up-to-date. CI failures could be due to outdated dependencies.

Code Review - PR #1964

Summary

This PR fixes a critical race condition in component registration by changing the default loading strategy from :async to :defer. The fix is technically sound and includes comprehensive testing infrastructure improvements.


✅ Strengths

1. Root Cause Analysis - Excellent

The PR description clearly identifies the race condition:

  • Main bundle with async: true executes immediately when downloaded
  • Generated component packs with :defer execute after page load
  • When main bundle executes first, components aren't registered yet

This is a classic script loading race condition and the fix is appropriate.

2. Configuration Change - Correct

# lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb:179-182
if generated_component_packs_loading_strategy.nil?
  # Use defer as the default to ensure generated component packs load and register
  # components before main bundle executes, avoiding race conditions with async loading
  self.generated_component_packs_loading_strategy = :defer

The default change from :async to :defer ensures:

  • Generated component packs load in document order
  • Components register before the main bundle executes
  • Eliminates the race condition

3. Test Coverage - Comprehensive

Updated tests correctly reflect the new default:

  • spec/react_on_rails/configuration_spec.rb:287 - Tests Shakapacker >= 8.2.0 defaults to :defer
  • spec/react_on_rails/configuration_spec.rb:335 - Tests Shakapacker < 8.2.0 defaults to :defer

4. Documentation - Outstanding

Added three excellent documentation files:

  • SWITCHING_CI_CONFIGS.md (299 lines) - Comprehensive guide for switching between CI configurations
  • TESTING_VERIFICATION.md (216 lines) - Complete testing verification report
  • Updated CLAUDE.md with CI debugging section (163 new lines)

5. Developer Tools - Exceptional

Added three powerful CI debugging scripts:

  • bin/ci-rerun-failures - Auto-detects and re-runs failed CI jobs
  • bin/ci-run-failed-specs - Runs only specific failing RSpec examples
  • bin/ci-switch-config - Switches between latest/minimum CI configurations

These tools will significantly improve developer productivity.


🔍 Code Quality Observations

Configuration Code - Well-Structured

The configuration validation in lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb:158-189 properly:

  • Handles backward compatibility with deprecated defer_generated_component_packs
  • Validates the strategy is one of :async, :defer, or :sync
  • Checks Shakapacker version support for async loading
  • Provides clear error messages

Helper Integration - Clean

# lib/react_on_rails/helper.rb:341-345
options = { defer: ReactOnRails.configuration.generated_component_packs_loading_strategy == :defer }
options[:async] = true if ReactOnRails.configuration.generated_component_packs_loading_strategy == :async
append_javascript_pack_tag("generated/#{react_component_name}", **options)

The helper code correctly translates the strategy into script tag attributes.

Shell Scripts - Professional Quality

  • Proper error handling with set -euo pipefail
  • Color-coded output for readability
  • Comprehensive help messages
  • Input validation and confirmation prompts

🎯 Potential Concerns

1. Breaking Change - Needs User Communication ⚠️

This changes the default behavior from :async to :defer. While the change fixes a bug, it could affect:

  • Page load performance characteristics
  • Component hydration timing
  • Custom loading strategies users may have built around the old default

Recommendation:

  • Ensure the CHANGELOG.md has a prominent "Breaking Changes" section
  • Consider adding a migration guide for users who explicitly relied on async loading
  • The PR description mentions this aligns with documented behavior, which is good

2. Whitespace Changes in CHANGELOG.md 🔧

The PR includes many whitespace-only changes in CHANGELOG.md (removing blank lines after list items). While this improves consistency, it makes the diff harder to review.

Minor issue: These formatting changes are fine but could have been in a separate commit for cleaner history.

3. RuboCop Exclusion for bin/ 📋

# .rubocop.yml
AllCops:
  Exclude:
    - 'bin/*'  # Shell scripts

This is appropriate since bin/ contains shell scripts, not Ruby code. However, there are some Ruby files in bin/ that might benefit from linting (like rake tasks if any exist).

Recommendation: Consider being more specific, e.g., bin/*.sh or excluding only specific shell scripts.


🔒 Security Considerations

Server Bundle Configuration

The dummy app config explicitly sets:

config.server_bundle_output_path = nil
config.enforce_private_server_bundles = false

This is appropriate for the test environment, but ensure production documentation emphasizes:

  • Keep server bundles outside public directory
  • Enable enforce_private_server_bundles in production

🚀 Performance Considerations

Script Loading Strategy

The change from :async to :defer means:

  • Async: Downloads in parallel, executes immediately when ready (non-blocking, unordered)
  • Defer: Downloads in parallel, executes in document order after HTML parsing

Impact:

  • Slightly more predictable execution order ✅
  • May delay execution until HTML parsing completes (typically negligible) ⚠️
  • Eliminates race conditions ✅

For most applications, :defer is the better default as it balances performance with predictability.


📊 Test Coverage - Excellent

The PR updates tests to reflect the new default and includes verification that:

  • ✅ All 433 gem specs pass with the new default
  • ✅ Both latest (Ruby 3.4, Node 22) and minimum (Ruby 3.2, Node 20) configurations pass
  • ✅ System tests verify component registration works correctly

🎓 Best Practices

Excellent practices demonstrated:

  1. ✅ Clear commit messages with context
  2. ✅ Comprehensive PR description with root cause analysis
  3. ✅ Updated tests to match behavior changes
  4. ✅ Extensive documentation of new tooling
  5. ✅ Code comments explaining the "why" not just the "what"
  6. ✅ Backward compatibility handling

📝 Minor Suggestions

  1. Documentation: Consider adding a troubleshooting section to CLAUDE.md for common script loading race conditions
  2. Testing: The verification report is excellent - consider automating this as part of CI
  3. Changelog: The PR description mentions aligning with "the default for Shakapacker >= 8.2.0" - ensure this is clearly communicated in the CHANGELOG

✅ Final Verdict

APPROVED - This is a high-quality PR that:

  • Fixes a critical race condition bug
  • Maintains backward compatibility where possible
  • Includes excellent documentation and tooling improvements
  • Demonstrates thorough testing and verification

The default change to :defer is the correct solution for the race condition, and the comprehensive developer tooling additions are a significant bonus that will benefit all contributors.

Recommendation

  • ✅ Merge after CI passes
  • 📢 Communicate the breaking change clearly in release notes
  • 📚 Consider documenting the script loading strategies in user-facing documentation

Great work on both the bug fix and the developer experience improvements! 🎉

🧹 Nitpick comments (3)
eslint.config.ts (1)

19-20: Migrate to the non-deprecated API instead of suppressing the warning.

The previous review identified that tsEslint.config() is deprecated and provided a clear migration path to ESLint core's defineConfig(). Suppressing the deprecation warning with an eslint-disable comment creates technical debt and postpones the inevitable migration.

Follow the guidance from the previous review comment: replace tsEslint.config() with ESLint core's defineConfig(), importing the parser, plugin, and shared configs from typescript-eslint directly. This will eliminate the need for the suppression comment and align with the current recommended API.

bin/ci-run-failed-specs (2)

107-108: Consider mapfile for more robust deduplication.

The current command substitution works for typical spec paths but could fail with spaces or special characters (unlikely in practice). For better robustness:

mapfile -t UNIQUE_SPECS < <(printf '%s\n' "${SPECS[@]}" | sort -u)

134-144: TTY handling correctly implemented; consider removing -n 1 for traditional default behavior.

The stdin-vs-TTY check successfully addresses the piped-input crash mentioned in the past review—when stdin is closed (e.g., pbpaste | bin/ci-run-failed-specs), the script now reads the prompt from /dev/tty instead.

Minor UX inconsistency: The prompt shows [Y/n] (suggesting Y is default), but -n 1 requires the user to type a character—pressing Enter alone produces a newline (non-empty, non-Y/y) and cancels. To enable true "press Enter for Yes" behavior, remove -n 1:

 if [ -t 0 ]; then
-  read -p "Run these specs now? [Y/n] " -n 1 -r
+  read -p "Run these specs now? [Y/n] " -r
 else
-  read -p "Run these specs now? [Y/n] " -n 1 -r < /dev/tty
+  read -p "Run these specs now? [Y/n] " -r < /dev/tty
 fi
 echo
-if [[ ! $REPLY =~ ^[Yy]$ ]] && [[ ! -z $REPLY ]]; then
+if [[ -n $REPLY ]] && [[ ! $REPLY =~ ^[Yy]$ ]]; then
   echo "Cancelled."
   exit 0
 fi

This allows Enter (empty REPLY) to proceed, matching the [Y/n] convention.

1-20: LGTM! Clean script foundation.

The shebang, strict error handling (set -euo pipefail), and color definitions follow bash best practices.


21-67: LGTM! Excellent documentation.

The help function is comprehensive and well-structured, covering usage patterns, examples, features, and workflow clearly.


77-95: LGTM! Solid input handling.

The spec collection logic correctly handles both direct arguments and stdin input, with appropriate regex extraction of spec paths from RSpec output.


116-132: LGTM! Appropriate working directory detection and command construction.

The logic correctly identifies when to run from spec/dummy and builds the RSpec command string for evaluation.


146-158: LGTM! Clean execution and result handling.

The script correctly executes the RSpec command, captures the exit code, and provides clear success/failure feedback.

The commit ee80bc2 changed the main client-bundle to use async: true for
better performance, but left generated_component_packs_loading_strategy
set to :defer in the dummy app configuration. This caused a race condition
where:

1. Main bundle (async: true) executes immediately when downloaded
2. Auto-generated ImageExample pack (:defer) executes after page load
3. Main bundle tries to hydrate ImageExample before it's registered

Solution: Change generated_component_packs_loading_strategy from :defer
to :async to match the main bundle loading strategy and prevent the race
condition.

This aligns with the default behavior (async when Shakapacker >= 8.2.0)
and the documentation added in ee80bc2.

The previous fix explicitly set generated_component_packs_loading_strategy
to :async, which broke CI for minimum dependencies (Shakapacker 6.0).

Root cause:
- Commit ee80bc2 changed main bundle to use async: true
- Original config had :defer explicitly set, causing race condition
- Setting :async explicitly breaks Shakapacker < 8.2.0

Solution:
- Remove explicit configuration setting
- Let it default based on Shakapacker version:
  - Shakapacker >= 8.2.0: defaults to :async (optimal)
  - Shakapacker < 8.2.0: defaults to :sync (compatible)
- Update test to check for version-appropriate default

This fixes both the original race condition AND maintains compatibility
with minimum supported dependencies.

…unner

This commit fixes component registration issues and adds tooling to efficiently
replicate CI failures locally.

## Key Changes

### 1. Fix default loading strategy for older Shakapacker
- Change default from :sync to :defer for Shakapacker < 8.2.0
- Ensures generated component packs register before main bundle executes
- Prevents "Could not find component registered with name X" errors

**Files:**
- lib/react_on_rails/configuration.rb:184
- spec/dummy/spec/helpers/react_on_rails_helper_spec.rb:86
- spec/dummy/config/initializers/react_on_rails.rb:47

### 2. New bin/ci-rerun-failures script
Automatically detects failed CI jobs from GitHub and re-runs them locally:
- Fetches CI status via gh CLI
- Maps CI job names to local rake commands
- Deduplicates and confirms before running
- Eliminates wasted time running passing tests

**Usage:**
```bash
bin/ci-rerun-failures          # Current PR
bin/ci-rerun-failures 1964     # Specific PR
```

### 3. Documentation improvements
- Updated CLAUDE.md with ci-rerun-failures workflow
- Added verified commands for replicating CI failures
- Documented bin/ci-local for broader testing

### 4. Environment fixes
- Updated Gemfile.lock: Capybara 3.39.2 → 3.40.0 (Rack 3 compatibility)
- Added bin/* to .rubocop.yml exclusions (bash scripts)

## Why defer instead of sync?

Scripts with no attributes execute immediately in document order, which can cause
race conditions. The defer attribute ensures scripts wait until HTML parsing
completes, then execute in document order - guaranteeing component registration
happens before rendering.

- Detect when CI jobs are still running
- Offer to wait for CI completion with progress updates
- Poll every 30 seconds showing in-progress and failed counts
- Only proceed to re-run failures after CI completes

This makes the script work correctly when invoked immediately after
pushing changes, rather than showing 'no failures' while jobs are
still running.

New script allows running only the specific RSpec examples that failed:
- Accepts spec paths as arguments or from stdin
- Parses RSpec failure output automatically
- Deduplicates specs
- Auto-detects if it needs to run from spec/dummy
- Confirms before running

Usage examples:
  # Direct arguments
  bin/ci-run-failed-specs './spec/system/integration_spec.rb[1:1:1:1]'

  # Copy failures from GitHub Actions, paste to run
  pbpaste | bin/ci-run-failed-specs

  # From file
  bin/ci-run-failed-specs < failures.txt

Also updated bin/ci-rerun-failures to suggest using this for
more targeted test runs.

System tests may fail locally on Ruby 3.4.3 with OpenSSL 3.6 due to stricter
CRL (Certificate Revocation List) checking when accessing external resources
like GitHub Pages.

Changes:
- Added spec/dummy/TESTING_LOCALLY.md documenting the issue and workarounds
- Attempted fix in rails_helper.rb (sets OPENSSL_CONF)
- Added openssl_test.cnf with relaxed SSL settings
- Updated CLAUDE.md to acknowledge CI is source of truth for system tests

The SSL errors are environment-specific and don't affect:
- CI (uses compatible OpenSSL versions)
- Unit tests
- Helper tests
- Gem-only tests

Contributors should focus local testing on unit/integration tests or use CI
for system test verification.

The easiest way to fix OpenSSL 3.6 SSL errors is to switch to Ruby 3.2,
which:
- Doesn't have OpenSSL 3.6 compatibility issues
- Matches the CI environment (CI uses Ruby 3.2 and 3.4)
- Is already installed via mise

Added clear instructions for switching to Ruby 3.2 using mise.

Changes the default loading strategy from :async to :defer to prevent
race conditions where React hydration starts before component registrations
complete.

Root cause: With async script loading, both client-bundle and generated
component packs can execute in any order. When client-bundle executes first,
React attempts to hydrate components that haven't been registered yet,
causing "Could not find component registered with name X" errors.

Solution:
- Default generated_component_packs_loading_strategy to :defer (was :async)
- Use defer: true for client-bundle in dummy app layout
- Update comments to reflect new strategy

With defer, scripts execute in DOM order after parsing, ensuring:
1. Generated component packs load first
2. Components register before main bundle executes
3. React hydration finds all registered components

Fixes CI failures in:
- spec/system/integration_spec.rb[1:1:6:1:2]
- spec/system/integration_spec.rb[1:1:6:2:2]

19-20: Export style change is fine, but deprecated API remains unaddressed.

The change from named export to default export is cosmetic and acceptable. However, as noted in a previous review, tsEslint.config() is deprecated in favor of ESLint core's defineConfig(). The suppression comment on line 20 acknowledges this but doesn't resolve it.

The deprecation issue was already flagged in a previous review. Consider addressing it in a follow-up if it's not critical for this PR.

Learning: In the react_on_rails project, files under `app-react16` directories are copied/moved to corresponding `/app` directories during the conversion process (removing the `-react16` suffix), which affects their relative import paths at runtime.

Learning: In React on Rails, the force_load feature includes both explicit `data-force-load="true"` usage and the ability to hydrate components during the page loading state (`document.readyState === 'loading'`). Both capabilities require a Pro license, so the condition `!railsContext.rorPro && (isComponentForceLoaded || document.readyState === 'loading')` correctly gates both scenarios.

Learning: React on Rails uses webpack CSS Modules configuration with namedExports: true, which requires the import syntax `import * as style from './file.module.css'` rather than the default export pattern. This configuration enables better tree shaking and bundle size optimization for CSS modules.

Learning: When stubbing environment variables in RSpec tests, use `before` and `after` hooks to ensure that the original values are restored after the tests, preventing any side effects on other tests. Example provided by justin808:
```ruby
describe "My test" do
  before do
    original_value = ENV["VARIABLE_NAME"]
    allow(ENV).to receive(:[]).with("VARIABLE_NAME").and_return("stubbed_value")
  end

  after do
    allow(ENV).to receive(:[]).with("VARIABLE_NAME").and_call_original
    ENV["VARIABLE_NAME"] = original_value
  end

  it "tests something" do
    # Your test code here
  end
end
```
This practice ensures test isolation and reliability.

🔇 Additional comments (11)
CLAUDE.md (1)

13-13: Good addition - ESLint check requirement.

Adding the explicit ESLint check with --report-unused-disable-directives ensures CI compliance.

TESTING_VERIFICATION.md (1)

62-216: Thorough testing verification documentation.

The test results, script verification, and conclusions are well-documented and provide good coverage of the testing performed.

SWITCHING_CI_CONFIGS.md (1)

1-299: Comprehensive CI configuration switching guide.

The documentation is thorough, well-structured, and provides clear workflows for switching between minimum and latest configurations. The hardcoded path issue from the previous review has been resolved with generic <project-root> placeholders.

The static analysis grammar warning on line 246 ("Yarn install fails") appears to be a false positive - the heading is grammatically correct as it describes a scenario where yarn install fails.

bin/ci-switch-config (7)

37-48: Good version manager detection with clear error message.

The function properly detects both mise and asdf, with a helpful error message directing users to installation instructions if neither is found.


50-98: Well-implemented status reporting.

The status function provides clear, comprehensive information about current configuration with color-coded output. The version detection logic using grep and sed is appropriate for this use case.


108-117: Good safety check for uncommitted changes.

Checking for uncommitted changes and requiring explicit confirmation is a good practice to prevent accidental data loss.


207-211: Verify silent error suppression is intentional.

Line 210 uses 2>/dev/null || true which will silently ignore all errors from git restore, including legitimate failures like corrupted git repository.

Is it intentional to suppress all errors here? Consider logging a warning if git restore fails:

-  git restore Gemfile.development_dependencies package.json spec/dummy/package.json packages/react-on-rails-pro/package.json 2>/dev/null || true
+  if ! git restore Gemfile.development_dependencies package.json spec/dummy/package.json packages/react-on-rails-pro/package.json 2>/dev/null; then
+    print_warning "Could not restore some files from git (they may not exist in git yet)"
+  fi

This would make debugging easier if git restore fails unexpectedly.


100-178: Well-structured switch_to_minimum function.

The function has clear steps, good progress reporting, and helpful next-step instructions. The logic flow is easy to follow.


180-258: Well-structured restore_to_latest function.

The function mirrors switch_to_minimum with appropriate differences (using --frozen-lockfile, restoring from git). Good consistency and clear reporting.


260-285: Clean command-line interface with helpful usage message.

The main script handler provides clear usage instructions and examples.

spec/dummy/spec/rails_helper.rb (1)

6-10: LGTM - Clear workaround with appropriate documentation.

The OpenSSL configuration workaround is well-documented and appropriately scoped to the test environment. The comment clearly explains why this is needed and references the upstream issue. Verification confirms that the referenced configuration file exists at spec/dummy/spec/support/openssl_test.cnf.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Inconsistency between PR objectives and implementation.

The PR objectives state: "updated spec/dummy/config/initializers/react_on_rails.rb to set generated_component_packs_loading_strategy = :async" to fix the race condition. However, this code unconditionally uses defer: true for the main bundle, not async: true.

The comment explains that defer ensures component registrations complete before hydration, which makes sense for avoiding race conditions. But this contradicts the PR description.

Can you clarify whether the fix is to use :defer or :async? The PR description says :async but the code and comments indicate :defer is the solution.

🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In spec/dummy/app/views/layouts/application.html.erb around lines 12-15, the PR
description says the initializer was set to
generated_component_packs_loading_strategy = :async but the view uses defer:
true (and the comment explains why defer is needed), causing an inconsistency;
fix it by making intent and implementation consistent: either switch the view to
async: true and update the comment to explain async loading, or (preferred here)
change the initializer and PR text to use :defer so the
generated_component_packs_loading_strategy matches the javascript_pack_tag
defer: true and update the comment to reference :defer explicitly.

### 1. Default Loading Strategy Test Failures

**Problem**: Tests expected `:async` and `:sync` as defaults, but code was changed to use `:defer` to avoid race conditions.

**Root Cause**: In commit 4faf810e, the default `generated_component_packs_loading_strategy` was changed from `:async` to `:defer` to fix component registration race conditions. The tests were not updated to reflect this change.

**Solution**: Updated tests to expect `:defer` as the default for both Shakapacker >= 8.2.0 and < 8.2.0.

**Files Changed**:

- `spec/react_on_rails/configuration_spec.rb`

**Commit**: fba00f9d

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Critical: PR objectives contradict the actual changes documented here.

This documentation clearly states (line 52): "the default generated_component_packs_loading_strategy was changed from :async to :defer" to fix race conditions.

However, the PR objectives state: "Change: updated spec/dummy/config/initializers/react_on_rails.rb to set generated_component_packs_loading_strategy = :async"

The PR description has the direction backwards - the fix was changing TO :defer, not to :async. This is consistent with the layout changes that use defer: true.

Please update the PR description to accurately reflect that the fix changes the default to :defer (not to :async).

🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In TESTING_VERIFICATION.md around lines 48 to 61, the documentation correctly
states the default was changed from :async to :defer, but the PR description and
objectives incorrectly claim the change sets the default to :async; update the
PR description (and any PR title/summary/commit message) to state the default
was changed to :defer (not to :async), ensure wording matches the doc line about
fixing race conditions and mentions defer: true in layout changes, and verify
any other references in the PR/commits use :defer consistently.

- Remove unused @typescript-eslint/no-deprecated disable from eslint.config.ts
  (the directive was reporting as unused in CI)
- Remove no-var from context.ts disable (not needed - TypeScript parser handles it)
- Update CLAUDE.md to require running `yarn run eslint --report-unused-disable-directives`
  before every commit to match CI's exact check

This ensures local linting matches CI behavior exactly.
