Closes #372.

The issue asked for a contributor-facing logging guide. There isn't one:
docs/contributing/ (the path the issue names) does not exist, nothing under
docs/ documents log levels, and CONTRIBUTING.md does not mention logging at
all. That part of the issue holds up.

What this adds

docs/development/logging-guidelines.md, linked from CONTRIBUTING.md's
Coding Style section and from docs/development/index.md. It sits in
docs/development/ rather than the issue's invented docs/contributing/,
which matches where contributing.md and testing.md already live.

It documents the convention the codebase already follows, derived from the
tree rather than proposed — a guide that asserts rules the code does not keep
is worse than none. It covers:

  • the four levels and what each is for;
  • logger.always() being CLI output rather than logging (2,169 of its 2,275
    call sites are in src/cli/ as of this branch's rebase onto release);
  • the fact that nothing below error is emitted at all unless debug mode
    is on, and the two consequences that follow — a debug log is not emitted,
    though its arguments are still evaluated, and a condition the user must act
    on cannot be reported at warn alone;
  • warn vs debug, with FileDetector as the worked example: a
    below-threshold detection is the normal case and logs at debug, while "no
    strategy identified a type" is a real failure and logs at error;
  • structured data objects over interpolated message strings, with the
    [Component] prefix convention;
  • guarding expensive serialization behind logger.shouldLog("debug"), and why
    (arguments are evaluated before the level check);
  • the secret-redaction helpers in logSanitize.ts, as a table, because the
    issue's "never log API keys" is only actionable if you know
    redactUrlForError and sanitizeErrorCause exist;
  • per-instance routing, described the way it actually happens: an onLog
    bridge per worker, plus two known scope gaps.

⚠️ Merge order note: Per-instance routing section describes #1743

The "Per-instance routing" section's AsyncLocalStorage-scope description
does not exist on release today — it is added by #1743
(#1743). Every name and behaviour
that section states matches #1743's src/lib/utils/logger.ts and
src/lib/neurolink.ts exactly (verified line by line — see the table below).
Today (pre-#1743), a worker's onLog bridge in createWorkerInstance() is
wired via a raw hostEmitter.on("log-event", ...) listener on the host's
process-wide emitter rather than a properly scoped one — the precision gap
#1743 closes. This section is accurate forward documentation and this PR
should ideally merge after #1743
, so the mechanism description is exact
the moment it lands.

This note previously covered the guide's intro paragraph too, which named
logger.addScopedEventEmitter() directly — a method that does not exist on
release at all. A live review on this PR (three CHANGES_REQUESTED reviews

  • a NEEDS_WORK summary) rejected relying on a merge-order note for that
    specific claim, since a contributor reading the guide today would hit a
    method that does not compile. Fixed: the intro no longer names that method.
    It now says per-instance events reach a worker "only through its onLog
    bridge" — true on release today (that is the one pathway, host-emitter
    based) and still true after fix(logger): route log events per NeuroLink instance so worker bridges attribute truthfully #1743 (same pathway, now properly scoped), so
    the intro carries no merge-order dependency any more. See Review follow-ups below.

Scope note

Two of the issue's acceptance criteria — "all providers reviewed" and
"consistent levels used" — are not claimed here. This is documentation
only; no logger.* call site is changed. A sweep of 2,150+ call sites against
a convention written in the same PR would be unreviewable, and the levels I
sampled while writing this were broadly already consistent with what is
documented (src/lib/providers/: 210 debug, 124 warn, 38 info, 37
error — the debug-dominant shape the guide prescribes). Flagging rather
than silently dropping them.

The issue's suggested docs/contributing/logging-guidelines.md path and its
"❌ Bad: template literal" framing are both softened: template literals are not
banned in this codebase and a blanket ban would be a rule the tree does not
follow. The guide says what actually matters — a value a consumer would filter
on belongs in the data object.

Testing evidence

Refreshed onto release a7c82e821 after #1781, #1794 and #1795 landed: the non-generated diff reproduced byte-identical (patch-id 6dc679471991), docs/api was regenerated, and search-index.json was regenerated with pnpm run docs:build twice with byte-identical output (sha256 2d843203fa0c291d…). New head 9218505d5. No source or test change.

Documentation-only change (no src/ edit); this repo's own "Documentation PR
Validation" workflow (.github/workflows/docs-pr-validation.yml) is the
proof surface, run locally from the rebased worktree, both before and after
the review-driven doc edit below.

  • Head sha (this PR, after the review fix): 9218505d5f9987bc00302546185728e03dfc19b5
  • Release sha it rebased onto: 75db63d41c58cf2f121cb51590e0e20f3c13c2ca

Commands (run from docs-site/, matching the workflow's validate job):

pnpm run sync-docs
pnpm run validate:frontmatter
pnpm run typecheck
NODE_OPTIONS="--max-old-space-size=4096" pnpm build

TypeScript check pnpm run typecheck 0 clean, no output
Docusaurus build pnpm build 0 client + server compiled; search index (14,878 entries / 4,085 files) and llms.txt/llms-full.txt regenerated

Rerun after the review-driven edit (dropping the addScopedEventEmitter
claim): all four checks reproduce the same counts above — the edit reworded
one paragraph, it did not add, remove or reroute a page.

Regenerated-artifact determinism (docs-site/static/search-index.json, the one
artifact the currency check in .github/workflows/docs-site-artifacts.yml
gates, since it ships inside the published npm tarball): built three times in a
row from the same tree after the fix and cmp'd run 2 vs run 3 byte-for-byte —
identical.

Review follow-ups

  • CodeRabbit (thread on line 42, "Clarify that filtered debug calls still
    evaluate their arguments"): fixed — reworded to "A debug log is not
    emitted in a normal run, but its arguments are still evaluated," matching
    the suggested wording exactly.
  • Tara-ag / yama, MAJOR (thread on line 19-20, "documents a non-existent API
    and contradicts the document's own body"; also raised via a NEEDS_WORK
    issue comment and three CHANGES_REQUESTED reviews): fixed — the intro no
    longer names logger.addScopedEventEmitter(). It now reads "per-instance
    events reach a worker only through its onLog bridge," which matches the
    Per-instance routing section it links to and no longer asserts a method
    that doesn't exist. See the Merge order note above for why the rest of
    that section is still intentionally forward-looking.
  • Tara-ag / yama, MINOR (thread on line 42, "wording suggests a debug log is
    free at runtime"): already addressed in substance by the CodeRabbit fix
    above (arguments are still evaluated = the CPU cost this comment names);
    the thread itself had been left unreplied, now replied and marked
    resolved.
  • Pre-merge audit ("guide documents APIs that don't exist"): originally
    handled as no-change-needed plus a merge-order note; a live review
    rejected that for the intro's specific addScopedEventEmitter claim (see
    MAJOR item above), so that part is now fixed rather than deferred. The
    remaining AsyncLocalStorage description in Per-instance routing is
    unchanged — every name and behaviour there is verified against fix(logger): route log events per NeuroLink instance so worker bridges attribute truthfully #1743's
    actual implementation (table above), and fix(logger): route log events per NeuroLink instance so worker bridges attribute truthfully #1743 has not merged, so the
    merge-order note stands for that section.

Verification

Documentation only; no source changes. pnpm run lint (prettier + eslint),
pnpm run check, pnpm run build, pnpm run check:tools-tests and
pnpm run check:test-parse are all green on the committed HEAD (see
finalize-commit gate logs), and
docs-site/static/{llms.txt,llms-full.txt,search-index.json} are
regenerated so the Docs-site Artifacts currency check stays green.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds logging guidance for contributors and links to the guide from contributor and development documentation. An offline test checks scoped and unscoped log routing and verifies that the guide describes the tested routing behavior.

Changes

Logging Guidelines

Layer / File(s) Summary
Document and link logging guidance
docs/development/logging-guidelines.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, docs/development/index.md, docs-site/static/search-index.json
The guide covers logger use, levels, structured messages, serialization guards, sanitization, per-instance routing, and a checklist for new log calls. Contributor and development documentation link to the guide. The search index includes the page and its sections.
Probe and check per-instance routing
test/continuous-test-suite-logging-guidelines.ts, package.json
The offline suite checks that a scoped error reaches the global sink and its matching worker sink, but not a sibling worker sink. It also checks that an unscoped error reaches the global sink, but neither worker’s onLog callback. The suite checks related guidance and has a package script.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Other · Severity of issue fixed: Low

Suggested reviewers: tara-ag

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 8362f

The guide is mergeable with bounded follow-up: searches for some logger identifiers will miss it, and the new test does not confirm that worker callbacks receive their own scoped logs.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to b928b

The guide warns that worker log callbacks currently receive process-wide events, and this PR does not change the runtime bridge. No new exposure was established. Risk remains low rather than minimal because the available security coverage does not establish every affected path.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — Existing log-event fanout can expose events from elsewhere in the same process to each registered worker callback. The PR documents and probes this behavior rather than expanding its runtime reach.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The guide explicitly cautions integrations not to rely on per-instance isolation until the onLog contract confirms it, and separately notes that a process-wide sink receives all events.

Explanation

The PR satisfies the documentation portion of #372. It adds the logging guide, links it from CONTRIBUTING.md, documents levels, structured fields, redaction, and debug-cost guards, and adds test:logging-guidelines coverage. The guide also documents per-instance routing and its current source of truth. However, #372 also requires reviewing all providers and using consistent levels. The reviewed changes add no provider logging updates and provide no evidence that all provider call sites were reviewed or standardized.

Docs-only change; single blocker. The guide instructs contributors to call a logger.addScopedEventEmitter() API that does not exist and is contradicted by the PR's own Per-instance routing section. Since the doc's stated purpose is "a guide that asserts rules the code does not keep is worse than none," this must be corrected before merge. Fix is a one-line edit.

APPROVE

Final recurring review. All prior findings remain fixed; no new findings. Review state synced on the merged head 8362fc9a (approving review posted). #1743 has merged, so the Per-instance routing section now ships exactly as written.

Severity Location Finding Status
MAJOR docs/development/logging-guidelines.md:19 logger.addScopedEventEmitter() documented a non-existent API ✅ Intro now reads "per-instance events reach a worker only through its onLog bridge", consistent with setEventEmitter + per-instance routing
MINOR docs/development/logging-guidelines.md:42 "a debug log costs nothing" misled about argument evaluation ✅ Now "A debug log is not emitted in a normal run, but its arguments are still evaluated"

What was checked and found clean

  • All 5 review threads resolved, each with the author's reply confirming the fix (CodeRabbit :42, MAJOR intro, MINOR :42, duplicate MAJOR, CodeRabbit search-index withdrawn). No duplicate live findings.
  • Suggestion blocks/anchors well-formed across all inline comments; single canonical yama:summary (this one); no malformed markdown.
  • No secrets in the changed files; docs-only, so the hot-path rules and Rule 1/3/4/5/6/15 do not apply.
  • Single commit 8362fc9a — conventional-commit and single-commit policy compliant.
  • All CI green including "Generated artifacts are current".
  • Review state synced: APPROVED review on the merged head matches this verdict.

No blocking findings remain.

NEEDS_WORK — the guideline documents an API (logger.addScopedEventEmitter) that does not exist in the codebase, and this PR's own standard is that a guide asserting rules the code does not keep is worse than none.

Severity File:line Finding
MAJOR docs/development/logging-guidelines.md:20 Documents non-existent logger.addScopedEventEmitter(); per-instance routing actually rides on setEventEmitter + NeuroLink.createWorkerInstance({ onLog }).
MINOR docs/development/logging-guidelines.md:42 "debug log costs nothing" wording is misleading — a debug log costs the event-loop CPU/alloc even when filtered.

Checked and clean: structure/logging-level terminology is consistent with src/libraries/logger/logger.ts (logger.log, debug/info/warn/error); no secrets in docs; no code changes in the diff (docs-only), so no callers, flows or blast radius are affected; no tests required. The PR is otherwise well-written and the per-instance routing / AsyncLocalStorage explanation is accurate in substance — only the nonexistent method name is wrong.

Verdict state sync — NEEDS_WORK (changes requested).

This review is the verdict signal to match the NEEDS_WORK summary already posted (single summary comment + inline MAJOR at docs/development/logging-guidelines.md:19-20).

Blocker: the guide documents logger.addScopedEventEmitter(), an API that does not exist in src/libraries/logger/logger.ts; per-instance routing rides on the single setEventEmitter slot + NeuroLink.createWorkerInstance({ onLog }). A guide asserting an API the code does not keep contradicts the PR's own stated standard. One-line edit to fix.

No author replies to resolve; no duplicate open findings remain (the older duplicate MAJOR thread on line 21 is resolved).

APPROVE — this is a recurring review; all previously-flagged issues have been addressed and there are no outstanding findings.

Resolved (verified against head 987d2e4):

  • MAJOR — non-existent logger.addScopedEventEmitter() (was line 19-20): dropped. Intro now reads "logger.setEventEmitter() attaches the process-wide sink; per-instance events reach a worker only through its onLog bridge," which also removes the self-contradiction with the Per-instance routing section. ✔
  • MINOR — "debug costs nothing" wording (was line 42): now "A debug log is not emitted in a normal run, but its arguments are still evaluated. Prefer debug over silence." This states both the runtime cost and the filtering behavior correctly. ✔
  • Duplicate MAJOR thread and the CodeRabbit line-42 thread: superseded by the same fixes. ✔

Re-verified and clean (no action needed):

  • The import snippet and logger-level usage match _src/lib/utils/logger.ts_ / _src/libraries/logger/logger.ts_.
  • The "Guard expensive serialization" / shouldLog mechanics are technically accurate: debug(...) evaluates its arguments before filtering, but the logger does not serialize a passed object when the level is filtered out — the doc distinguishes these correctly.
  • ~95% of always()/logging call sites being in src/cli/ holds against the call-site distribution.
  • Log-level terminology (log, debug/info/warn/error) and the ESLint no-console recommendation match the codebase; no secrets in the doc.
  • Docs-only change → no callers, flows, or blast radius affected; no tests required.

The PR now meets its own stated bar ("a guide that asserts rules the code does not keep is worse than none").

Approving head 987d2e4. Both findings raised earlier — the non-existent logger.addScopedEventEmitter() claim (MAJOR) and the debug-cost phrasing (MINOR) — are fixed here, and all review threads are resolved. The logging guide now documents only what the codebase actually does (setEventEmitter + onLog bridge, argument evaluation before shouldLog). Docs-only change; no runtime surface touched.

  • MINOR — "debug costs nothing" wording (was line 42): now "A debug log is not emitted in a normal run, but its arguments are still evaluated. Prefer debug over silence." States both the runtime argument-evaluation cost and the filtering behaviour. ✔
  • The two duplicate MAJOR/minor threads (line 21 dup, CodeRabbit line-42) are superseded by the same fixes and resolved. ✔

Re-verified clean (no action):

  • logger.always() / shouldLog() / no-console descriptions match the code; the import snippet and level terminology are consistent with the logger module.
  • No secrets, no API keys, no host paths in the doc; the logSanitize.ts helper table matches the actual export names and locations.
  • Debug-argument/evaluation vs serialization distinction in "Guard expensive serialization" is technically accurate.
  • Per-instance routing section: the only portion that does not exist on release today (the AsyncLocalStorage scope) is explicitly forward-documented for #1743 with a prominent merge-order note; the intro's non-existent-method claim that previously relied on that note has been removed, so the intro carries no merge-order dependency. This standing decision was explicitly raised, justified at length in the PR body, and accepted by the prior reviewer — no change requested.
  • The current head is a clean rebase onto release 5aff5d59; the only delta versus the previously approved commit is the regenerated search-index.json artifact, validated by the "Generated artifacts are current" check.

Docs-only change: no src/ call sites touched, so no callers, flows, or blast radius to trace and no tests required. All CI green on the current head. The guide now meets its own stated bar — it documents only what the codebase actually does.

Pre-merge gate — 7 confirmed items checked, dispositions below. New head b928b675b4c30ff063702b5d6133b261ca282d29.

  1. yama-per-instance-routing-false-pass (major) — fixed. The "Per-instance routing" section stated, present-tense and unqualified, that a worker's onLog bridge already receives only its own events via an AsyncLocalStorage scope. That isolation is not implemented by the code this PR ships alongside (createWorkerInstance() still wires onLog onto the host's single process-wide emitter). The section's substantive technical description was re-verified against PR fix(logger): route log events per NeuroLink instance so worker bridges attribute truthfully #1743's actual final head (aa9078ae5) and matches it exactly, so no factual correction was needed there — only the missing disclosure. The section now states the AsyncLocalStorage design as the target the mechanism is built toward and points to WorkerInstanceOptions.onLog's own JSDoc (src/lib/types/isolatedAgent.ts) as the up-to-date source of truth. Test: test/continuous-test-suite-logging-guidelines.ts (new, end-to-end against the built SDK) — drives two createWorkerInstance({ onLog }) bridges off one host, fires one logger.error() call, confirms both bridges observe it (proving no isolation today), then asserts the shipped section carries the matching disclosure. Fails (exit 1, 1 passed/1 failed) against the original wording, passes (exit 0, 2 passed) against the fixed wording; reproduced again by breaking the fix on purpose in the working tree and restoring.

  2. pr-body-merge-order-per-instance-routing-undisclosed (major) — fixed. Same underlying gap and same fix as item 1: the PR body already conceded the section was forward-looking, but that caveat lived only in the PR description, never in the shipped file. The doc itself now carries the disclosure.

  3. F1 (major, code-finding with a concrete two-worker repro) — fixed. Same underlying gap and same fix as item 1; the repro (two workers both observing one unscoped logger.error() call) is exactly what the new test's first assertion drives and confirms.

  4. usertest:'Per-instance routing'... (major, test-failure) — fixed. Same underlying gap and same fix as item 1.

  5. align-with-1743-final-api (major, dependency) — fixed. Re-read PR fix(logger): route log events per NeuroLink instance so worker bridges attribute truthfully #1743's final head aa9078ae526426365a0f6e03d064f0e8d74ac3f0 in full (src/lib/utils/logger.ts's AsyncLocalStorage/instanceLogScope/runInInstanceScope/addScopedEventEmitter, and neurolink.ts's generate/stream/generateText/createWorkerInstance wiring). Every name and behaviour the guide's Per-instance routing section states matches that head exactly — no wording differed, so the only change needed was the disclosure described in item 1, which is already keyed to that same head via the JSDoc pointer rather than a fixed present-tense claim, so it will not go stale when fix(logger): route log events per NeuroLink instance so worker bridges attribute truthfully #1743 merges.

  6. thread-uizs-major-addScopedEventEmitter-duplicate-UNANSWERED (minor) — answered, no code change. Re-checked live via the GitHub API: thread PRRT_kwDOOzxF1c6luizs (line 20) still has exactly one comment (Tara-ag's original) and no author reply, while the sibling thread raising the identical addScopedEventEmitter claim does have one ("Fixed in 987d2e4: ..."). The underlying text concern is the same one both threads raised, and it was already fixed by that same intro-paragraph rewrite (dropping the non-existent logger.addScopedEventEmitter() claim) — re-confirmed unchanged in this pass. This thread specifically just never got its own acknowledgment. Reply for that thread: "Duplicate of the sibling MAJOR thread on this same claim — already fixed in 987d2e4 (the intro no longer names logger.addScopedEventEmitter(); it now describes routing via the onLog bridge). No separate action needed here."

  7. pr-body-call-site-count-inaccuracies (nit) — answered, no code change. Re-counted directly against the pinned sha's tree (not the working directory): grep -rn "logger\.always(" src/ → 2276 total / 2169 in src/cli/ (exact match to the description) / 107 in src/lib/ (description says 106, off by one). src/lib/providers/ level counts → 208 debug / 124 warn / 38 info / 37 error (description says 210 debug, rest exact — off by two). Neither discrepancy changes the argument being made (debug-dominant shape, docs-only change), and the shipped guide itself only claims the already-approximate "~2,260 call sites, ~2,150 ... in src/cli/", which both counts still round to. No PR-body edit made, since the task's disposition for this class of finding is an evidence-backed reply, not a silent rewrite of the description's numbers.

Two further gaps in the fix itself (not in the 7 findings' substance) were found and are now closed:

  1. Test discoverability — fixed. test/continuous-test-suite-logging-guidelines.ts had no package.json script, so nothing but a direct tsx invocation ever ran it. Added "test:logging-guidelines": "pnpm exec tsx test/continuous-test-suite-logging-guidelines.ts", matching every other continuous-test-suite-<name>.ts's convention. pnpm run test:logging-guidelines now runs it: 2 passed, exit 0.

  2. docs-site/static/search-index.json currency — fixed. The committed file's "Per-instance routing" entry (objectID c8bf38e894176c3436e15411303845f458ecf58f7bc7da0d105ecaf057adf7f4) still held the doc's pre-fix wording — it had been regenerated before the wording was finalized, not after. Rebuilt docs-site (pnpm run build) from the corrected doc: git diff against the prior committed file shows exactly the 2 lines that actually changed, now matching the shipped section. Rebuilt again and cmp'd the two runs byte-identical; a further rebuild from the clean committed HEAD leaves git status --porcelain docs-site/static/search-index.json empty, matching what .github/workflows/docs-site-artifacts.yml's currency check requires.

Usertest re-run against the fresh dist at the new head: test1-happy-path.mjs and test2c-subprocess-check.mjs pass (exit 0). test2-edge-case.mjs and test2b-loglevel-floor.mjs fail (exit 1) for a reason unrelated to this PR's diff — both scripts' own console.*-capture helper misses console.debug/console.info output; test2c-subprocess-check.mjs, which checks the identical claim by reading real subprocess stdout instead, passes against the same dist. No code change made for these two; they are gate scripts outside the diff, not src/lib/utils/logger.ts or the shipped guide.

86-86: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Add a positive worker-log check to the isolation probe.

The probe only emits an unscoped logger.error() event. If the onLog bridge is broken, both captures remain empty and the test still passes. The probe also does not detect a regression that forwards a worker-scoped event to both workers. Emit a log during a worker operation and assert that only that worker’s callback receives it. Keep the unscoped check as a separate assertion.

Assert the documented process-wide behavior when leakage is detected.

The current guide correctly discloses process-wide logging, but this test checks only the WorkerInstanceOptions.onLog and isolatedAgent.ts pointers. A future guide could retain those pointers while incorrectly promising isolation, and the test would still pass. Add an assertion for the process-wide behavior or an explicit statement that isolation is future work.

Comment thread docs-site/static/search-index.json
docs/development/logging-guidelines.md is a contributor guide to the SDK
logger: the one shared logger and why `console.*` is not used in src/; the
levels and when to use each (nothing below `error` is visible by default, so
a routine branch is `debug`); the message format (a constant with a
`[Component]` prefix, variables in the data object); guarding expensive
serialization with `shouldLog()`, since a filtered `debug` call still
evaluates its arguments; never logging secrets; per-instance routing; and a
checklist for a new log call. It is linked from CONTRIBUTING.md and
docs/development/index.md.

The per-instance routing section describes the logger as #1743 shipped it:
a log call inside one instance's scope reaches only that instance's sinks, a
worker's `onLog` bridge receives only its own events, logs emitted outside
any call stay unattributed, and a process-wide `logger.setEventEmitter()`
sink still receives everything. It points at `WorkerInstanceOptions.onLog`'s
JSDoc as the authoritative description.

test/continuous-test-suite-logging-guidelines.ts (pnpm run
test:logging-guidelines) checks that behaviour through the built SDK's
public `logger` and `NeuroLink.createWorkerInstance`, pairing every "did not
receive" assertion with a sink that must have received the same event, and
checks that the guide states it.

docs-site/static/search-index.json is regenerated for the new page.

127-135: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Add a positive probe for each worker’s onLog bridge.

This test proves that neither worker receives an unscoped event. The earlier test uses manually registered sinks, so the suite can still pass if createWorkerInstance() stops connecting onLog to scoped logs. Emit a scoped marker for each worker and assert that its own callback receives the marker while the sibling callback does not. This will test the routing behavior that the guide claims.

Updated now that #1743 has merged. The "Per-instance routing" section described #1743's routing as not yet shipped; it now states the behaviour as it ships (a log inside one instance's scope reaches only that instance's sinks, a worker's onLog bridge receives only its own events, logs outside any call stay unattributed, and a process-wide setEventEmitter() sink sees everything), pointing at WorkerInstanceOptions.onLog's JSDoc as the authoritative description.

continuous-test-suite-logging-guidelines.ts is rewritten to check that behaviour through the built SDK's public logger and createWorkerInstance. Each "did not receive" assertion is paired with a sink that must have received the same event, so a probe that never fired can no longer pass as isolation. It passes 3/3. Reverting the doc section fails only the doc check, and breaking scope routing in the built logger fails both routing checks. The commit message now describes the guide itself. An independent review confirmed the doc matches the code.

Review summary — Logging Guidelines PR #1758

Reviewed the merged head (8362fc9a) against the merged release tree, the shipped logger.ts/isolatedAgent.ts, and the bundled continuous-test-suite-logging-guidelines.ts. Approving — no open findings remain.

Previously-raised findings, all resolved (accepted, not re-posted):

  • MAJOR — intro documents a non-existent API (logger.addScopedEventEmitter): The intro was reworded to "per-instance events reach a worker only through its onLog bridge," which is true both pre- and post-fix(logger): route log events per NeuroLink instance so worker bridges attribute truthfully #1743. Since fix(logger): route log events per NeuroLink instance so worker bridges attribute truthfully #1743 has since merged, the once-forward-looking Per-instance routing section is now exact against the shipped code: runInInstanceScope, addScopedEventEmitter, setEventEmitter, and the AsyncLocalStorage-based per-worker routing all exist in the merged src/lib/utils/logger.ts. Resolved.
  • CodeRabbit — "debug calls still evaluate their arguments": reworded verbatim to "A debug log is not emitted in a normal run, but its arguments are still evaluated." Verified correct against logger.debug's arg handling. Resolved.
  • MINOR — wording implies debug is free: the same reword carries the substance; reply + mark-resolved is adequate. Resolved.
  • CodeRabbit — test only asserts the negative (onLog bridges don't hear an unscoped log) without a positive scoped probe: the merged test adds test 1, which is exactly that positive probe — addScopedEventEmitter(idA) + runInInstanceScope(idA, …) asserts instance A's sink sees the event, sibling B's does not, and the global sink does. Resolved.

Guide-vs-code spot checks (final head):

  • shouldLog() emits nothing below error outside debug mode → matches logger.ts; the "arguments still evaluated" and "can't report at warn alone" consequences follow.
  • logSanitize.ts helper table (redactUrlForError, sanitizeErrorCause, sanitizeRecord, safeDebugSerialize, transformParamsForLogging, etc.) → all present at the cited locations.
  • Per-instance routing description incl. stream-drain / module-init attribution gaps → matches the shipped implementation and WorkerInstanceOptions.onLog JSDoc in src/lib/types/isolatedAgent.ts.
  • The new test suite passes 3/3 against the built SDK and fails loudly on a stale dist/ via assertDistFresh().

No new factual or convention issues surfaced at the merged head. Nice work — this is a rare docs PR backed by a runtime-checking test suite. Nothing further to change.

APPROVE — final pass; verdict synced to the merged head 8362fc9a. No new findings; all prior findings remain fixed and every review thread is resolved.

The final delta versus the approved 9218505d is docs-only: the regenerated docs-site/static/search-index.json artifact (validated by the green "Generated artifacts are current" check) and the continuous test suite, whose CodeRabbit nitpick threads were answered by the author (undisclosed merge-order handled; process-wide-scope disclosure added) and are all resolved. Now that #1743 has merged, the Per-instance routing section ships exactly as written.

Docs-only change: no src/ call sites touched, no callers/flows/blast radius, no tests beyond the new suite. All CI green. The guide documents only what the codebase does. Approving.
