Fork-internal PR opened purely to run CI in our own namespace, because workflow runs from a fork need the upstream maintainer's approval and none of the sixteen upstream PRs has ever had checks.

This is not a review request and is not meant to be merged. It exists so we see failures ourselves rather than discovering them when someone else presses the button.

Upstream counterpart: UsefulSoftwareCo#1588.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Credential-provider operations now time out after 30 seconds instead of waiting indefinitely.
    • Timeout errors identify the affected provider and operation.
    • Provider functionality remains intact for both object-based and class-based implementations.
    • Responsive providers continue resolving credentials normally.

…ils, not hangs

A credential provider is frequently remote — the 1Password backend talks to a
service over HTTP, and any custom provider may be a network store — so "stopped
answering" is one of its ordinary failure modes rather than an exotic one.
Nothing bounded the call, so a store that went away did not fail a tool
invocation, it hung it, and nothing in the resulting silence named the provider.

Measured before changing anything: with a provider whose `get` never returns,
seeding and connection creation both succeed and the resolution never comes back.
A control provider resolves normally, so the hang is the provider call and not
the harness.

`CredentialProvider` documents nothing about timing — no expectation that `get`
returns promptly, no note that the caller will not bound it — so neither side
owned this. Executor already bounds its other remote calls the same way, in OAuth
discovery and in the MCP plugin's probes; credential resolution was the one that
did not.

Bounded once at the registration funnel rather than at each call site, so a
method added later is bounded by default instead of by whoever remembers.
Optional methods stay optional: a provider that cannot enumerate must not appear
to. The failure names the provider and the operation, so the diagnostic points at
the store rather than at whatever the caller happened to be doing.

Thirty seconds is a backstop against a dead dependency, not a latency budget.
The tests advance a virtual clock past it rather than waiting.
The wrapper destructured the four optional methods and called the bindings
bare, which drops `this`. `get` was already called on the provider, so the
two disagreed. Every provider in the tree is an object literal and cannot
notice; a provider written as a class — which is exactly what "wrap any
provider" invites — threw TypeError on its first optional call.

Covered by a class-based provider test, with an object-literal control that
is identical except for that one difference, so a red result can only mean
the receiver.

Also pins the operation in the message-shape test, which asserted the
provider and the phrasing but not the operation it is named for, and uses
Exit.isFailure rather than inspecting _tag, which the repo's own
no-manual-tag-check rule rejects.
…mbers

The wrapper spread the provider. A spread copies only own ENUMERABLE
properties, so everything on a class's prototype — its methods, and accessors
like `writable` — was dropped silently. Nothing raised: the wrapper simply
appeared not to have the capability, and the caller took a path the provider
meant to own. A class-based provider whose `writable` is an accessor stops
being seen as a writable store at all, so creating a connection from a pasted
value fails with "provider not registered: default".

It now inherits through Object.create and shadows only the five methods it
bounds, which also means a capability added to CredentialProvider later
survives the wrapper without anyone remembering to list it here.

Covered by a class-based provider whose `writable` lives on the prototype,
verified failing before the change with exactly that error.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Credential provider operations now run through 30-second timeout wrappers. Timeout failures identify the provider and operation. Tests cover nonresponsive providers, object-literal providers, class providers, prototype capabilities, and successful resolution.

Changes

Credential provider timeouts

Layer / File(s) Summary
Bounded provider registration and calls
packages/core/sdk/src/executor.ts
Credential providers are stored in wrappers that bound required and optional operations to 30 seconds. Timeout failures include the provider and operation. Method context, inherited methods, and prototype accessors remain available.
Provider behavior and timeout validation
packages/core/sdk/src/provider-call-timeout.test.ts
Tests use virtual time to verify timeout failures and successful credential resolution across object-literal, class-based, and prototype-defined providers.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to f9c79

The change can cause valid credential providers with inherited accessors to fail at runtime when those accessors use private fields. The receiver handling should be corrected and covered by a regression test before this PR is merge-ready.

Preserve the provider receiver for inherited accessors.

Object.create(provider) preserves the accessor definition but invokes it with bounded as this. If writable reads a private field, such as return this.#writable, defaultWritableProvider() throws because bounded does not have that private-field brand. Forward key and writable to the original provider, or use a proxy that reads non-wrapped properties with provider as the receiver.

Add a regression case where PrototypeProvider.writable returns a private #writable field.

  • packages/core/sdk/src/provider-call-timeout.test.ts#L170-L199: make writable read a private field.
