Worktrunk Tend CI

Project-specific guidance for tend workflows running on worktrunk (a Rust CLI for managing git worktrees). The generic skills (tend-running-in-ci, tend-review, tend-triage, etc.) provide the workflow framework; this skill adds worktrunk conventions.

Codecov Monitoring

After required CI checks pass, poll codecov/patch — it is mandatory despite being marked non-required:

for i in $(seq 1 5); do
  CODECOV=$(gh pr checks <number> 2>&1 | grep 'codecov/patch' || true)
  if echo "$CODECOV" | grep -q 'pass'; then
    echo "codecov/patch passed"; exit 0
  elif echo "$CODECOV" | grep -q 'fail'; then
    echo "codecov/patch FAILED"; exit 1
  fi
  sleep 60
done

If codecov fails, investigate with task coverage and cargo llvm-cov report --show-missing-lines | grep <file>.

Test Commands

cargo run -- hook pre-merge --yes   # full suite + lints
cargo test --lib --bins             # unit tests only
cargo test --test integration       # integration tests only

CI runs on Linux, Windows, and macOS.

CI Fix: Prefer Rerun for Transient Infrastructure Failures

Before opening a fix/ci-* PR, classify the failure:

• Transient infrastructure (link-check timeouts, apt-get flakes, GitHub outages, runner disk issues, codecov upload blips) — do not create a PR. The maintainer will rerun CI. Comment on the run or exit silently; a permanent config change for a one-off timeout is churn the maintainer will close.
• Flaky test (known-flaky or first-seen PTY/shell test) — exit without a PR (same behavior as prior test-flake ci-fix runs).
• Real regression — proceed with a fix PR.

Lychee link-check timeouts are always transient unless the same URL has failed on at least two separate runs within the last few days. .config/lychee.toml already sets max_retries = 6 and lists known-unreliable hosts; one timeout is not enough evidence to extend that list. Signals you have a transient failure, not a broken link:

• The previous CI run on the same or a nearby commit passed.
• Only [TIMEOUT] is reported (not 404/403/410).
• The URL is reachable from a local curl.

When in doubt, post a comment on the failed run summarizing the diagnosis and wait — don't open a PR.

Applying GitHub Suggestions

Apply the literal suggestion only — change the lines it covers, nothing more. If surrounding lines also need updating, note that in your reply.

Issue Triage

When a bug may already be fixed, ask the reporter: wt --version

When an issue involves config, shell integration, completions, or unexpected behavior that could stem from user setup, ask the reporter for wt config show output. This reveals installed shells, config paths, and active settings — essential context for diagnosing config-related problems.

Closing Duplicates

When an issue is clearly a duplicate, close it after commenting. Use gh issue close <number> and tell the reporter: if they believe this was closed in error, they can let us know and we'll reopen it.

Suggesting Aliases for Niche Feature Requests

Deflect narrow feature requests to aliases rather than native flags — this keeps the CLI surface small while giving users the behavior immediately. Suggest an alias when:

• The request benefits a small subset of users or a single reporter's workflow (e.g., idempotent create-or-switch, auto-push after merge)
• The behavior can be composed from existing wt commands or shell primitives
• A shell one-liner or wt step alias covers the use case

How to respond:

1. Draft the alias (shell function or wt step alias, whichever fits better)
2. Test it in a scratch worktree — verify it works for the happy path and edge cases (e.g., branch already exists, dirty worktree, missing remote)
3. Post the tested alias in the issue with usage examples
4. Link to the aliases docs and tips & patterns for further recipes

Weekly Maintenance: MSRV & Toolchain

Bump both MSRV and the development toolchain to latest stable − 1. When Rust 1.N is the current stable release, set both to 1.(N−1).

Files to update:

After bumping, run the full test suite (cargo run -- hook pre-merge --yes) and verify cargo msrv verify passes.

README Date Check

The README blockquote opens with a month+year (e.g., "April 2026"). During daily maintenance, verify the month matches the current month and update it if stale.
