Read when: selecting the right verification lane for a change

Lane Infrastructure

• Lane membership is defined once in scripts/test-lanes.ts and discovered by directory, so new test files join their lane automatically; never hand-list test files in package.json.
• scripts/run-test-lane.mjs runs each test file in its own bun test process (per-file isolation with a wall timeout) so a hanging test or leaked global in one file cannot cascade into the rest of the lane. --jobs N parallelizes; --single-process restores the shared-process mode for debugging.
• bun run test:fast is the full source gate: discovered src/**, launcher unit, and scripts/**.
• .github/workflows/quality-gate.yml is the reusable workflow_call gate for pull requests, stable tags, and prerelease tags. Keep common quality steps there instead of copying them into caller workflows.
• The reusable gate installs Lua and runs bun run test:env, so the shipped mpv plugin tests and launcher smoke run for every pull request and tagged release. Lua installation uses only the runner's Ubuntu package sources so unrelated third-party repository failures do not block the gate.
• In the reusable gate, test:coverage:src is also the blocking execution of the discovered src/** test lane. The coverage runner returns the failing test's status, so CI does not rerun that lane through test:fast. Launcher unit and script tests still run separately because they are outside the coverage lane.
• Launcher smoke artifacts are uploaded after test:env fails. CI does not rerun launcher smoke solely to collect the same artifacts.

Default Handoff Gate

bun run typecheck
bun run test:fast
bun run test:env
bun run build
bun run test:smoke:dist

If docs-site/ changed, also run:

bun run docs:test
bun run docs:build

Cheap-First Lane Selection

• User-facing docs-site/ changes: bun run docs:test, bun run docs:build
• Internal KB, AGENTS.md, or .agents/skills/** changes: bun run test:docs:kb
• Config/schema/defaults: bun run test:config, then bun run generate:config-example if template/defaults changed
• Launcher/plugin: bun run test:launcher or bun run test:env
• Runtime-compat / compiled behavior after bun run build: bun run test:runtime:compat
• Stats dashboard UI: bun run test:stats
• Build/release scripts (scripts/**): bun run test:scripts
• Packaging: build the platform package, then run bun run test:package <resources-directory>. On headless Linux: xvfb-run -a bun run test:package release/linux-unpacked/resources. Content checks and informational size reporting run inside electron-builder hooks. See the release guide for size reports and the installed-app verification checklist.
• Coverage for the maintained source lane: bun run test:coverage:src
• Deep/local full gate: default handoff gate above

Coverage Reporting

• bun run test:coverage:src runs the same discovered bun-src-full membership as test:src through a sharded coverage runner: one Bun coverage process per test file, then merged LCOV output.
• A failing coverage shard stops the runner with a nonzero status. Coverage is a source test gate, not a report-only step.
• Machine-readable output lands at coverage/test-src/lcov.info.
• Every reusable quality-gate run uploads that LCOV file as the coverage-test-src artifact.

Compiled Runtime Smoke

• bun run test:smoke:dist and its test:runtime:compat alias require an existing full build and fail with the missing artifact paths when dist/ or the stats UI bundle is absent.
• The check runs the emitted stats daemon under Electron's Node runtime. It opens the production HTTP server, queries the overview endpoint through native libsql-backed storage, and leaves an HTTP request body unfinished before shutting the daemon down. It verifies a clean exit and that the port and ownership state are released despite the unfinished request.
• The check also occupies the configured port, requires startup to fail without stale ownership state, releases the conflict, and verifies a clean retry.
• This is not a full Electron UI startup check. It does not require a display and makes no claims about renderer, window, tray, or mpv behavior.

Dependency Audit Policy

• bun audit --audit-level high blocks the reusable quality gate.
• Keep security overrides and dependency patches at the minimum fixed version. Remove them after the owning package ships and adopts a compatible fix.

Rules

• Capture exact failing command and error when verification breaks.
• Prefer the cheapest sufficient lane first.
• Escalate when the change crosses boundaries or touches release-sensitive behavior.
• Never hand-edit dist/launcher/subminer; validate it through build/test flow instead.
