fix(res-to-affine): readiness guard must fail, not skip - #742
Conversation
skip_unless_ready() called Alcotest.skip() when the tree-sitter CLI or
the generated grammar was absent. tools/vendor/tree-sitter-rescript/src/
parser.c is gitignored (.gitignore:112), so every fresh checkout took
that path: all 32 walker cases skipped and alcotest printed
Test Successful in 0.018s. 0 test run.
with exit 0. The suite was green precisely when it tested nothing.
That fake green is why the deletion of this suite's own fixtures in
f766dcb went unnoticed for three weeks (restored in #741): in any
environment without the grammar, the missing corpus produced a pass.
Renames the guard to require_ready() and replaces both Alcotest.skip()
calls with Alcotest.failf carrying the remedy. No environment may
silently run zero tests.
Verified both paths on this branch:
grammar absent -> rc=1, "32 failures! in 0.020s. 32 tests run."
grammar present -> rc=0, "Test Successful in 1.257s. 32 tests run."
The count is now reported honestly in both.

…cked The coverage job runs the whole `dune runtest` sweep, which includes tools/res-to-affine/test/test_walker.ml, but it never installed the tree-sitter CLI or built the pinned grammar. That was invisible while the walker tests skipped on a missing grammar: the job was green precisely because it ran zero of them. Removing that skip in the previous commit turned the concealment into a visible red. This adds the same three steps the `build` job already has, so the coverage sweep exercises the walker instead of stepping over it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Pin actions/setup-node to an immutable commit.
@v7.0.0 is a mutable action reference. Replace it with the approved full 40-character commit SHA so a later tag change cannot alter this job without review.

🌐 Web query:
npm tree-sitter-cli 0.25.0 package.json scripts install lifecycle official registry
💡 Result:
The tree-sitter-cli package is available on the official npm registry [1]. While npm is a supported installation method [2][3], it functions by downloading pre-built binaries for specific platforms rather than performing a standard Node.js package build [2][3]. Regarding the install lifecycle and package.json: The tree-sitter-cli npm package includes an install script (typically named install.js) [4] which is executed during the npm install lifecycle to handle the platform-specific binary download/installation [4]. Because this relies on npm lifecycle scripts, issues can arise if scripts are disabled (e.g., using --ignore-scripts in.npmrc) [4]. Specific notes for version 0.25.0: Version 0.25.0 was released on February 1, 2025 [5]. It was a significant release that bumped the internal ABI to 15, requiring a tree-sitter.json file for parser repositories [5]. Common issues: Users have reported issues where the expected executable is missing or fails to execute after an npm install, particularly in environments where the install lifecycle script does not complete correctly or when using npx in restricted environments [4]. If the npm installation fails to provide a working binary, the official recommendation is to install via the Rust ecosystem using cargo (cargo install tree-sitter-cli --locked) [6][2][3], which builds the CLI from source, or to download the binary directly from the official GitHub releases page [6][2].

Pin the tree-sitter toolchain and setup action.
tree-sitter-cli@^0.25.0 can resolve different releases, and no lockfile controls this global install. Pin an approved exact version, commit the lockfile, and use npm ci. Keep lifecycle scripts enabled because tree-sitter-cli uses its install script to fetch the binary. Pin actions/setup-node@v7.0.0 to an approved full commit SHA. Also update the build-job comment: test_walker.ml fails when prerequisites are absent; it does not auto-skip.

The comment on the `build` job's tree-sitter CLI step said the walker tests "auto-skip if the CLI / generated grammar aren't present, so this step is only required to *exercise* the walker". After the readiness guard became fail-closed, both halves of that are false: the tests fail rather than skip, and the step is a hard prerequisite for `dune runtest`. Leaving it would reintroduce, as a comment, exactly the belief this PR exists to remove -- that a missing grammar is a benign condition.

Implements the owner ruling of 2026-09-07: no environment may silently run zero tests.
The fake green
test_walker.ml:65 skip_unless_ready()calledAlcotest.skip()when the tree-sitterCLI or the generated grammar was absent.
tools/vendor/tree-sitter-rescript/src/parser.cis gitignored (
.gitignore:112), so every fresh checkout took that path: all 32walker cases skipped and alcotest printed
with exit 0. The suite was green precisely when it was testing nothing.
This is not hypothetical. It is why the deletion of this suite's own fixtures in
f766dcbwent unnoticed for three weeks (restored in #741): in any environmentlacking the grammar, a missing test corpus produced a pass.
The change
Renames the guard to
require_ready()and replaces bothAlcotest.skip()calls withAlcotest.failfcarrying the remedy (cargo install tree-sitter-cli/just install-grammar). One file, 32 call sites renamed mechanically.Verified, both directions
rc=1—32 failures! in 0.020s. 32 tests run.rc=0—Test Successful in 1.257s. 32 tests run.The important column is the count: previously the absent case reported
0 test runand passed.ci.yml:70-79installs the CLI and builds the grammarbefore
dune runtest, so CI lands in the passing row.Accepted cost
A fresh clone can no longer run the walker suite without installing the tree-sitter
CLI and building the grammar first. That is the deliberate trade, chosen over the
milder "fail under CI, skip locally".
Note
ocamlformatis not available in my environment, so I could not pre-checkdune build @fmt. If the formatting gate objects, say so and I will correct it.
