Problem
There are no automated tests, and CI does not run any. The repo ships logic that is easy to get wrong (repo-string normalization, device-auth polling state machine, per-tool argument validation) but nothing guards it.
Evidence
- No test files anywhere in the repo (no
*.test.ts, notest/directory). package.jsonhas notestscript..github/workflows/ci.ymlruns only:
- run: npm ci
- run: npx tsc --noEmit
- run: npm run build
There is real logic that deserves coverage, for example the repo normalizer in src/index.ts line 767-768:
const m = repoRaw.match(
/^(?:https?:\/\/github\.com\/)?([^/\s]+)\/([^/\s#?]+?)(?:\.git)?\/?$/i,
);
and the argument-validation branches in most tool handlers.
Why it matters
This project is about shipping verified fixes with regression tests. A test harness here makes future fixes (including the other open issues) verifiable, and "build passes" is currently the only signal.
Acceptance criteria
- A lightweight test runner is wired up (Node's built-in
node:testis sufficient, no heavy dependency needed). - A
testnpm script exists and is added as a step inci.yml, gating PRs. - Initial coverage includes at least the repo-string normalizer (valid
owner/name, full URL,.gitsuffix, trailing slash, and a malformed input that should be rejected) and the missing-required-arg path of one tool handler.
