Summary

plugins/ruflo-business-pods/scripts/pod-tick.test.mjs is a node:test file (its own header: "uses Node's built-in test runner (no extra deps). Run with: node --test") that was listed in scripts/ci-test-baseline.txt (vitest-can-run-it-but-currently-fails) instead of scripts/ci-test-excluded.txt (vitest-cannot-run-it-at-all, uses node:test) — a miscategorization, since the excluded list exists for exactly this case and a sibling file (tdd-repair.test.mjs) with the identical pattern is already there.

Running a node:test-based file inside vitest's shared worker process, especially one with six spawnSync child-process calls, correlates strongly with a root Test Suite (ubuntu-latest) CI job crash: tinypool's ERR_IPC_CHANNEL_CLOSED ("Channel closed"), reproduced 4 times out of 6 consecutive runs on #4306, every time landing right after this file's last test completes.

Filed with full evidence as #4307. This fix (move the one line to the correct list) doesn't prove the causal mechanism with certainty, but it's independently correct per the project's own documented categorization rules regardless of whether it resolves the crash, and is worth landing on its own, fast, since the crash affects every PR's CI right now.

Test plan

  • node --test plugins/ruflo-business-pods/scripts/pod-tick.test.mjs — 21/21 passing under its real, intended runner
  • Confirmed identical pattern already exists in ci-test-excluded.txt (plugins/ruflo-testgen/scripts/tdd-repair/tdd-repair.test.mjs)

Related: #4307

🤖 Generated with RuFlo

pod-tick.test.mjs's own header says "uses Node's built-in test runner
(no extra deps). Run with: node --test" and it imports test() from
node:test, not vitest — exactly the category scripts/ci-test-excluded.txt
exists for ("the .mjs files use node:test: node --test runs them"). It
was miscategorized into ci-test-baseline.txt instead (vitest CAN run it,
it just currently fails), so the root vitest ratchet has been executing
a node:test file on every PR.

This explains a ~4-in-6 repro rate on PR #4306 of the root Test Suite job
crashing with tinypool's ERR_IPC_CHANNEL_CLOSED ("Channel closed"),
consistently right after this file's last test completes — six spawnSync
child-process calls inside a vitest-hosted node:test file is exactly the
kind of worker-lifecycle interaction likely to corrupt the shared process.
Tracked in #4307 with the full crash evidence.

Verified: 21/21 passing under its real runner
(`node --test plugins/ruflo-business-pods/scripts/pod-tick.test.mjs`).

Same fix as #4308: this file imports test() from node:test (not vitest)
and documents itself as "Run with: node --test" in its own header, but
was miscategorized into ci-test-baseline.txt. Running it under vitest's
shared worker process correlates strongly with the ERR_IPC_CHANNEL_CLOSED
crash hit 4/6 times on this PR's own CI (#4307). Applying here directly so
this release doesn't wait on #4308 to merge first.

* chore(release): 3.58.0 version bumps and changelog

Minor release: new memory peek command, Codex activity viewer, configurable
MCP rate limits, plus the #4303 install-breaking fix and a round of
correctness fixes merged since 3.57.2. Also bumps ruflo-console 0.44.4 ->
0.44.5 for the #4305 TUI fix, which shipped to main without a plugin version
bump (the same gap already documented as a past mistake in the console's own
changelog for 0.44.3/0.44.4).

* fix(ruflo-console): update smoke.sh's hardcoded version check to 0.44.5

The plugin.json version bump to 0.44.5 (for the #4305 TUI fix) broke the
smoke contract's own hardcoded expectation of 0.44.4 in step 1. Update the
step name and grep pattern to match.

* fix(ci): sync the smoke-workflow regression test to the real 15-minute timeout

#3950 bumped .github/workflows/all-plugins-smoke.yml's smoke-all job from
timeout-minutes 10 to 15 (the job now also checks out and smokes the first
external git-subdir marketplace entry, agentic-qe-fleet) but never updated
this test's hardcoded expectation of 10, breaking the Test Suite job on
every PR since.

* fix(memory): resolve sql.js's wasm dist path directly, not via package.json

fts5.test.ts located sql-wasm.wasm via require.resolve('sql.js/package.json')
then string-replaced the suffix. sql.js 1.14 tightened its exports map to
"." and "./dist/*" only, so that package.json subpath resolve throws
ERR_PACKAGE_PATH_NOT_EXPORTED even though the wasm file is present on disk —
caught by the existing try/catch and misreported as "sql.js isn't installed",
failing all 4 SqlJsBackend FTS5 tests with "sql.js/dist/sql-wasm.wasm not
found". Resolve 'sql.js/dist/sql-wasm.wasm' directly instead, which the
"./dist/*" export already permits.

Verified: 6/6 passing locally (was 4 failed before the fix).

* fix(ci): move pod-tick.test.mjs to the node:test exclusion list

Same fix as #4308: this file imports test() from node:test (not vitest)
and documents itself as "Run with: node --test" in its own header, but
was miscategorized into ci-test-baseline.txt. Running it under vitest's
shared worker process correlates strongly with the ERR_IPC_CHANNEL_CLOSED
crash hit 4/6 times on this PR's own CI (#4307). Applying here directly so
this release doesn't wait on #4308 to merge first.

* fix(ci): cap the ratchet's vitest worker count to 2

#4307: Test Suite (ubuntu-latest) intermittently crashes with tinypool's
ERR_IPC_CHANNEL_CLOSED at three different, unrelated points across 7 runs
on this PR, after ruling out any specific file as the cause (one
candidate, pod-tick.test.mjs, was fixed separately for an unrelated
reason and the crash still recurred at a different file). The pattern
(crash location varies, happens ~60-90s into a ~9500-test run) is more
consistent with cumulative memory pressure across the default fork
pool (one fork per CPU, ~4 on a standard runner) than a single bad
test. Capping workers at 2 trades some wall-clock time for headroom
while the real cause is still open in #4307.

* fix(graph-intelligence): build the optional cli import specifier from parts

#4307 investigation, round 8: once the worker-cap fix (3739f3a) stopped
the random tinypool crash, Test Suite started failing deterministically
on plugins/ruflo-graph-intelligence/tests/phase4-adapters.spec.ts —
"./src/memory/graph-edge-writer.js" is not exported, even though that
spec file's own tests never execute the real GraphEdgesSource.listEdges()
(they all use inline fake listEdges() test doubles). The spec file does
statically import knowledge-graph-adapter.ts at module level, though, so
vitest's module-graph crawl sees the string literal and (CI-only, not
reproduced locally in 2/2 attempts) appears to eagerly resolve it outside
this method's own try/catch during collection.

Build both the primary and fallback specifiers from joined array parts
instead of literals, so no bundler's static import-specifier scan can
find and pre-resolve them — the actual resolution still only happens at
the real `await import(...)` call site, same as before.

Verified: full plugin suite green, 104/104 (was 8/8 on the one affected
file already — this closes the only CI-only gap).

* fix(ci): baseline token-optimizer.test.ts — real, pre-existing, unrelated bug

v3/@claude-flow/integration/src/token-optimizer.ts calls
this.agentBooster.editCode(...), but the real agentic-flow/agent-booster
module's AgentBooster/EnhancedAgentBooster class has no editCode method
at all (its real API is apply/applyBatch/prefetch/...). Confirmed by
enumerating the class prototype directly. Not a version-pin issue, not
caused by anything in this release — @claude-flow/integration isn't even
part of the release train. Filed as #4311 with the real-fix suggestion
(rewrite optimizedEdit() against the actual API) for whoever owns that
integration layer; baselining here so the Test Suite ratchet reflects
reality instead of blocking an unrelated release on pre-existing debt.

Superseded — this exact change landed on main via #4306 (the 3.58.0 release, which needed it to get a clean Test Suite run). Closing rather than merging an empty diff.
