test(e2e): prove staging Brev exec readiness - #11301
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe staging Launchable E2E flow verifies remote execution readiness, records readiness evidence, and classifies successful targets accordingly. The workflow uses longer timeouts and updated artifact naming. Fixture coverage validates readiness after failed probes. ChangesRemote execution readiness

Manual Brev comparison for run 34483204500This is a command-level comparison, not a same-instance or verified same-Launchable reproduction. Original CI observation
The trusted controller made these underlying calls:
Final CI results:
Local comparisonI reused an existing staging-named workspace rather than creating a duplicate:
I then ran the same underlying commands with the same per-call budgets:
Common observation: Important limitation: the local workspace name suggests a staging deployment, but because it is inaccessible I could not verify its provision receipt or prove it came from Launchable |

Classify non-retryable readiness failures before retrying.
BrevLaunchableFixture.waitForExec retries every failed brev exec result because it checks only result.exitCode === 0. Permanent command or authorization failures can consume the full 15-minute readiness window. Retry only timeout and classified external failures, fail immediately for other result classes, and update test/e2e/RETRY_INVENTORY.md to match.

Outcome
The general staging Launchable E2E now succeeds only after
brev exec <owned-workspace-id> trueproves remote execution readiness. Failed probes remain bounded and retain only the final bounded, redacted diagnostic, while the existing control-plane checkpoint and confirmed cleanup remain intact.Reason
The control-plane checkpoint merged in PR #11270 proves workspace creation but does not prove that Brev can execute a remote command. This is the first deferred capability slice in epic #11250.

This changes a credentialed, billable remote-execution workflow. Brev credentials remain confined to the workflow-specific
HOME, command probes persist no raw attempt artifacts, diagnostics are bounded and redacted before persistence or error reporting, operations remain bound to the persisted owned ID, and cleanup still requires two confirmed absence observations.Signed-off-by: Julie Yaunches jyaunches@nvidia.com
