Summary

  • install a child-owned finalizer only after the detached CLI proves exact background-session ID/PID ownership;
  • persist natural completion and explicit kill as immutable terminal facts, with killed stronger than natural exited/failed and natural facts stronger than liveness-derived stale;
  • preserve the registered launcher PID, existing process-identity checks, kill escalation, detached logs, name reservations, and old metadata compatibility;
  • record exact representable exit codes and bounded observed signals without changing the child process result when persistence fails.

This fixes short-lived successful and failed background jobs becoming indistinguishable as stale after their processes exit.

I reviewed CONTRIBUTING.md and AGENTS.md before submitting this change.

Impact

  • user-facing impact: openclaude ps eventually reports normal completion as exited, nonzero or observed top-level failure as failed, verified explicit termination as killed, and unobservable loss conservatively as stale;
  • developer/maintainer impact: terminal eligibility and precedence are centralized in the background registry, while deterministic race tests cover refresh, finalization, kill, PID ownership, registration timeout, and concurrent writers.

Terminal evidence

Build Successful short-lived job Failed short-lived job
unchanged main stale stale
this branch exited failed

The changed build also preserved the jobs' original process exit codes.

Testing

  • bun run build
  • bun run smoke
  • bun run check
  • bun run typecheck
  • bun run typecheck:type-tests
  • bun run security:pr-scan -- --base upstream/main --head HEAD
  • git diff --check upstream/main...HEAD
  • focused tests: bun test src/cli/bgRegistry.test.ts src/cli/bg.test.ts src/cli/bgFinalizer.test.ts src/entrypoints/cli.test.ts src/utils/conversationRecovery.test.ts (179 passed)

Focused coverage includes exit 0, nonzero exit, uncaught top-level failure, observed SIGINT/SIGTERM, SIGKILL-to-stale, exact owner rejection, PID 1 container launch, registration timeout, launcher-death registration races, refresh/finalizer races, kill/finalizer races, concurrent natural writers, name release, persistence failure, old metadata, the installed launcher, and built ps output.

Notes

  • linked issue: none; this is a focused background-session reliability fix;
  • provider/model path tested: n/a (no provider or model behavior changed);
  • screenshots attached: n/a (no visual layout changed; terminal status evidence is included above);
  • known limitations: SIGKILL, Windows force termination, host crashes, and power loss remain stale when the process cannot authoritatively observe its outcome. Signal names are not inferred where the platform cannot report them.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Background sessions now report terminal outcomes: exited, failed, stale, or killed.
    • Session results preserve exit codes and termination signals where available.
    • Improved detection of sessions that terminate immediately or are forcibly stopped.
    • Graceful shutdown signals are recorded for more accurate session reporting.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Prevented successfully launched sessions from being incorrectly reported as started after they have already ended.
  • Documentation

    • Updated background-session documentation with terminal statuses and platform limitations.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Background sessions now persist terminal facts for exits, signals, explicit kills, and stale processes. Child processes install a finalizer that records outcomes. Launches propagate session identity and confirm immediate termination. Signal tracking covers graceful shutdown paths.

Changes

Background session terminal facts

Layer / File(s) Summary
Persist terminal facts
src/cli/bgRegistry.ts, src/cli/bgRegistry.test.ts
Background sessions validate and persist immutable natural-termination and kill facts. Reads, listings, status refreshes, name reservations, and owner lookups apply authoritative terminal state.
Finalize background children
src/cli/bgFinalizer.ts, src/utils/backgroundSessionTermination.ts, src/utils/gracefulShutdown.ts, src/cli/print.ts, src/cli/bgFinalizer.fixture.ts, src/cli/bgFinalizer.test.ts
The finalizer validates routing and ownership, monitors launcher liveness, records exit or signal outcomes, scrubs routing variables, and handles cleanup and process-exit hooks.
Wire launch confirmation
src/cli/bg.ts, src/entrypoints/cli.tsx, src/entrypoints/cli.test.ts, src/cli/bg.test.ts
Background launches propagate session identity and launcher PID, configure Node heap and GC flags, confirm immediate completion, and initialize finalization before dispatch.
Document terminal statuses
README.md
The documentation describes successful exits, failures, explicit kills, stale sessions, persisted outcomes, signal limitations, and force-termination behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 29785

The change improves background-session outcome reporting by preserving exited, failed, and killed states instead of incorrectly showing stale. It is mergeable with owner awareness because failed launch confirmation may leave session and log artifacts behind, and one integration test depends on a prebuilt launcher and node being available on PATH.

Inline comments:
In `@README.md`:
- Around line 188-194: Update the session status documentation in README.md to
state that an explicit successful kill takes precedence over a natural exited or
failed outcome for the same process, and that terminal outcomes are stored
separately under bg-sessions/terminal/. Note that deleting this directory causes
finished sessions to fall back to liveness-derived status.

In `@src/cli/bg.test.ts`:
- Around line 535-569: Extend the tests for confirmBackgroundSessionLaunch to
cover both success paths: verify a live process returns the original session
without calling refreshStatuses or resolveSession, and verify a dead process
with an already-finalized terminal session returns the resolved exited or failed
session, including its terminal status and exit details.

In `@src/cli/bg.ts`:
- Around line 944-960: Update the handleBgFlag failure path around
confirmBackgroundSessionLaunch so a stale-session confirmation removes the
created registry record and log files before reporting failure, matching the
cleanup used by other launch failures; do not attempt child termination because
the process has already exited. If the implementation intentionally retains the
record or logs for postmortem inspection, explicitly state that in the surfaced
error message instead.
- Around line 66-71: Update the background launcher constants near HEAP_SIZE_ENV
to reuse the exported BACKGROUND_SESSION_ID_ENV and
BACKGROUND_SESSION_LAUNCHER_PID_ENV symbols from bgFinalizer instead of
redeclaring them; if that import creates an unacceptable cycle or dependency,
move both constants to a shared module and import them from both consumers.
- Around line 226-238: Update the non-Node branch in the environment setup
around isNodeExecutable so the launcher receives a relaunch marker or otherwise
skips its relaunch path. Preserve the originally registered detached PID for
non-Node runtimes and ensure prepareBackgroundSessionFinalizer runs in that same
owning process.

In `@src/cli/bgFinalizer.test.ts`:
- Around line 481-512: Update the test setup around runBuiltCliSession and the
installedLauncherPath spawn to verify the prebuilt launcher exists and is
runnable, guarding or skipping the test when it is unavailable; use
process.execPath instead of the literal node command. Replace the
spacing-sensitive stdout assertions with checks for the relevant process names
and outcome status without coupling them to print.ts column formatting.
- Around line 427-457: Guard the signal-dependent tests in
src/cli/bgFinalizer.test.ts lines 427-457, including the parameterized sigint
and sigterm cases, with it.skipIf(process.platform === 'win32'). Apply the same
Windows platform guard to the SIGKILL destruction test in
src/cli/bgFinalizer.test.ts lines 514-526; no other test behavior needs
changing.
- Around line 203-213: Update the process.exitCode assignment in this test to
use a narrow cast for the string value while preserving the test’s
string-parsing coverage and existing cleanup behavior.

In `@src/cli/bgRegistry.test.ts`:
- Around line 33-53: Add negative tests in bgRegistry.test.ts for
isBackgroundSessionTerminalFact rejection, covering a terminal fact with a
mismatched pid and at least one malformed status/exitCode combination such as
killed with exitCode. Verify rejected facts leave the session status as running
and do not expose exitCode, using the existing writeTerminalFact,
createBackgroundSession, listBackgroundSessions, and resolveBackgroundSession
helpers.
- Around line 940-980: Rename the production seam option on
refreshBackgroundSessionStatuses from beforeStatusWrite to
_beforeStatusWriteForTesting, and update the test to use the renamed property
while preserving the existing race orchestration and assertions.

In `@src/cli/bgRegistry.ts`:
- Around line 1028-1041: The defensive ineligibility guard in the finalization
logic is unreachable for current BackgroundSessionStatus values; add a brief
comment at the guard explaining that it is intentionally retained to catch
future status additions. Apply the same clarification to both finalizer
branches.
- Around line 571-598: Update ensureBackgroundSessionDirs or the existing
session-pruning flow to remove stale terminal fact files matching the temporary
*.tmp naming pattern, covering files left behind when either installer process
exits before finally cleanup. Preserve active installation behavior and avoid
deleting non-temporary terminal facts.

No status consumer bypasses authoritative terminal facts. Background-session commands consume results from listBackgroundSessions() or refreshBackgroundSessionStatuses(). The raw metadata reader is limited to ownership and finalization checks.

Static analysis hint dismissed.

The RegExp is built from session.id, which the registry generates and validates against SAFE_ID_RE, and from a literal status string. No untrusted input reaches the pattern, so the ReDoS warning does not apply here.

Update

Pushed follow-up commit 2978515 addressing the background-session review feedback.

Addressed

  • Routing and process ownership — Centralized private routing names, routed partial metadata through finalizer scrubbing, and preserved the registered PID for non-Node launchers. — 2978515
  • Coverage and portability — Added launch-confirmation and malformed-fact coverage, kept numeric-string parsing type-correct, and guarded POSIX-only signal fixtures on Windows. — 2978515
  • Diagnostics and documentation — Made retained stale-launch logs explicit and documented terminal storage plus explicit-kill precedence. — 2978515
  • Validation — Focused background and entrypoint tests, both type checks, build, smoke, full check, PR intent scan, and diff whitespace validation pass. — 2978515

Not changed

  • Built Node launcher fixture — The fixture intentionally invokes the tracked Node launcher; process.execPath is Bun during the test, and built CLI validation already requires bun run build. — 2978515
  • Crash-orphaned temp cleanup — A PID-only sweep could remove an active terminal write when liveness is unverifiable. Normal finally cleanup remains; conservative crash reclamation is left for a separately designed follow-up. — 2978515

Migrate fork from the bg.js daemon-based bg architecture (commit 98d8715,
T12.2 of bg-agent-view) to upstream's full bg.ts + bgRegistry.ts +
bgFinalizer.ts + bgRouting.ts + backgroundSessionTermination.ts
architecture (introduced upstream in Twigpine#1642, hardened by Twigpine#2133).

New files (from upstream/main):
  src/cli/bg.ts                              (1136 lines)
  src/cli/bg.test.ts                         (1324 lines)

  src/cli/bgRouting.ts                       (   4 lines)
  src/utils/backgroundSessionTermination.ts  (  27 lines)

Modified (apply Twigpine#2133's hunks):
  README.md, src/cli/print.ts, src/entrypoints/cli.tsx, src/utils/gracefulShutdown.ts

Deleted (fork's old daemon-based bg, replaced by upstream's session-registry model):
  src/cli/bg.js       (was fork's bg.js; 205 lines)
  src/cli/bg.test.js  (was fork's bg.test.js; 484 lines)

Fork-local additions to support the migrated bg.ts without dragging in
upstream's full CLI machinery (which depends on envFile, flagSettings,
githubModelsCredentials, interruptionTrace, daemon, templateJobs, etc.
that the fork doesn't carry):

  src/utils/cliArgs.ts              — add argsBeforeDelimiter() (mirrors upstream
                                      helper for handling `--` delimiter in argv)
  src/utils/conversationRecovery.ts — add findResumeSessionIdByPrSelector() (used
                                      by bg.ts's --bg pr-resume path)

Minimal cli.tsx wiring (instead of upstream's full CliEntrypointImporters
machinery, the fork keeps its existing main() and just installs the bg
finalizer at the top when the private BACKGROUND_SESSION_ID_ENV /
BACKGROUND_SESSION_LAUNCHER_PID_ENV vars are set):

  src/entrypoints/cli.tsx — at start of main(), import bgRouting + bgFinalizer
                            and call prepareBackgroundSessionFinalizer() if
                            either env var is set

  src/utils/gracefulShutdown.ts — add noteBackgroundSessionTerminationSignal()
                                   to SIGINT / SIGTERM / SIGHUP handlers so
                                   the finalizer can record the real exit signal

Verification:
  bun run typecheck             → 0 errors
  bun test src/cli/bg.test.ts   → 51 pass / 0 fail
  bun test src/cli/bgRegistry.test.ts → 60 pass / 0 fail
  bun test src/cli/bgFinalizer.test.ts → 9 fail (integration tests; see
                                          "Known limitations" below)
  bun run build                 → OK
  bun test (full suite)         → 5078 pass / 167 skip / 16 fail
                                    (7 fail are origin/main-opencc pre-existing
                                     baseline: modelRouteOverrides × 3,
                                     filesystem permissions × 2, client baseURL × 2;
                                     9 fail are bgFinalizer integration tests)

Known limitations:
  1. bgFinalizer.test.ts has 9 integration test failures because the test
     fixtures spawn real detached CLI subprocesses (using
     OPENCLAUDE_BG_FINALIZER_FIXTURE_READY env var and a per-test config
     dir), which depend on infrastructure the fork doesn't carry (the
     full envFile / flagSettings / githubModelsCredentials / interruptionTrace
     / daemon stack that upstream's cli.tsx has). The tests are kept as
     placeholders for the future port of that machinery.

  2. Fork's --bg now goes through upstream's session-registry model
     (--bg-session-id env var, registry under ~/.claude/sessions/) instead
     of the old daemon request socket flow. The fork's previous T12.2
     daemon command surface (handleBgAgentsCommand → /bg-agents subcommand)
     is still available but the new `--bg <short-id>` re-launch path is
     the one bg.js callers used to use.

The v1 daemon-mailbox data path (BG_PROTO list/kill ops over the bg
daemon socket) was inherited from the original bg-agent-view plan
(T8/T9). When fork commit 1439579 ported `--bg` to the v2
session-registry model (upstream Twigpine#1642 hardened by Twigpine#2133), the
dialog was left reading the v1 mailbox — which is empty for every
session that came through the v2 path. `opencc ps` showed 7+
sessions; `/background` showed "No background agents".

Replace the data layer with direct bgRegistry calls:

- `loadJobs` → `loadSessions` (uses refreshBackgroundSessionStatuses
  + listBackgroundSessions; sessions are sorted startedAt desc)
- `killJob` → `killSession` (uses killBackgroundSession from bg.ts)
- `useBackgroundAgentJobs` → `useBackgroundAgentSessions`
- `setBackgroundAgentSockPathForTesting` →
  `setBackgroundAgentRegistryRootForTesting` (wraps
  `_setBackgroundSessionsRootForTesting`)

The BackgroundAgentRow renderer is unchanged — `sessionToJob` adapts
the v2 BackgroundSession shape into the v1 JobRecord shape
(session.id → job.short, isTerminal(session) → job.dying, etc.)
so the pointer + short + cwd + status + isolation row layout is
preserved across the v1 → v2 switch.

Tests:
- Removed the fake-daemon-server harness (loopback unix socket +
  FrameReader/encoder + ~150 lines of net.createServer glue)
- Switched to mocking `_setBackgroundSessionsRootForTesting` and
  writing sessions directly to `~/.claude/bg-sessions/sessions/`,
  matching the pattern in `bgRegistry.test.ts`.
- 8/8 tests pass. Default pid in fixtures is `process.pid` so the
  refresh path doesn't demote `running` sessions to `stale`.

Ported from opencc-release `93029117`.

Out of scope: `claude bg-agents` CLI subcommand still reads the v1
daemon mailbox (CLI surface, not the TUI dialog).
