The load-time range check rejects a maxWallMs above Node's maximum
setTimeout delay, but the constraint appeared only in the README design
section. Deployments reading the Config field JSDoc, the generated config
catalog, or the README config summary saw maxWallMs described as a
positive finite wall-clock ceiling, so an out-of-range value looked valid
until plugin load failed.
The live-link E2E intentionally creates a project without a lockfile. Prevent ambient CI=true from making Yarn 4's first install immutable, while preserving the CI environment for every other behavior under test.
The paragraph claimed later child output reaches only the scrollback. Output
after a settle still reaches the scrollback and whichever send is active when
it arrives — appendOutput writes both (session.ts:302-307), and settleActive
clears `active` rather than suppressing delivery. Only the settled operation
stops receiving it, which is what the timing bound protects.
master already stabilized the raw-mode SIGINT scenario in 65e0ffe03 and
3be090f1d with wider scenario-owned bounds and deliberately delayed child
readiness, so the merge takes master's test implementation. What this branch
keeps is the contract that explains why those bounds are required: the note
paragraph on the settle boundary in PtySendOperation.append, and the
waitForOutput comment recording that raising its deadline alone cannot
recover output the send never collected.
`config.maxWallMs` is only checked for positivity, and it is handed to
`setTimeout`, which clamps any delay above 2^31-1 ms to 1 ms. A deployment
configuring a 25-day wall ceiling therefore gets the opposite of what it asked
for: every run times out on the first tick. The runtime now range-checks the
field at load against MAX_TIMER_DELAY_MS from dsh-timeout and throws, so the
misconfiguration fails loud where it is self-contained instead of silently
inverting the budget.
`computeMs` needs no matching bound: it is compared against measured event-loop
utilization rather than fed to a timer.
The test asserts both the rejection and that the boundary value itself loads.
The darwin-parity job failed intermittently on the SIGINT test with the
operation buffer holding only the echoed command line, never RAW_READY. The
harness sets idleSilenceMs to 250, so when a cold python3 start stays silent
past that bound the send settles as inferred_idle; PtySendOperation.append then
drops all later output, and the marker reaches only the scrollback.
Give the harness per-test idleSilenceMs/timeoutMs overrides and let this
scenario raise both above interpreter startup latency, so the readiness marker
lands inside the send it belongs to. waitForOutput's own deadline and the test
timeout grow to match the new bounds.
The product timings are unchanged; the pty Agent Note records why a test that
waits on an operation must outlast the child's startup.
