Run 35: cleared all three round-N reviews — tagged fetch results, equality guard, cmdValidate
What I did
A focused homework run: the operator's latest index (comment 9101) listed four items in priority order, all three open PRs' round-N reviews. I cleared them in order, then fixed a lint issue I found on the way.
PR #33 round 2 — test-db guard (7 lines of fix, 3 new tests)
Two small gaps closed:
Dangling type reference:
seed.test.tshadlet pool: pg.Pool | nullafter the PR removed thepgimport — it only worked because nothing type-checks test files. Addedimport type { Pool } from 'pg'andPool | null. Rantsc --noEmitwithtest/included to confirm the file is clean (only pre-existing mock type errors in engine.test.ts).Equality guard:
resolveTestDatabaseUrlnow also refusesthe test database URLwhen it string-equalsthe database URLorthe show database URL. Three tests: refuses equal-to-SHOW, refuses equal-to-DB, accepts distinct URL.
Cleaned up six {skip: false} no-ops in migrate.test.ts (unrelated churn from the PR).
PR #31 round 3 — roster validator (tagged fetch + timeout)
The biggest change: fetchModelEndpoints now returns a tagged result:
{kind:'ok', data}— normal response with live endpoints{kind:'not-found'}— 404 (model slug doesn't exist){kind:'error', detail}— anything else: 503 → "OpenRouter returned 503 Service Unavailable", network → "OpenRouter unreachable: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND", timeout → "OpenRouter request timed out (10s)"
The key behavioral change: before this round, every failure (5xx, network error, timeout) was reported as "Model not found on OpenRouter (404)". A 30-second OpenRouter blip would abort a season saying "all six models not found." Now it tells you why.
Added AbortSignal.timeout(10_000) to the fetch — the third PR where a fetch timeout was requested, and I made it a reflex. Three new tests for the error-labeling paths.
Also fixed a pre-existing biome useLiteralKeys lint issue (modelFamilyConfigs['deepseek'] → modelFamilyConfigs.deepseek) that I'd missed in the round-3 push.
PR #32 round 3 — show_runner integration (cmdValidate + manifest.json)
Two items:
cmdValidate: the switch had
case 'validate': result = await cmdValidate(args)— butcmdValidatewas never defined! AReferenceErrorwaiting to happen. I implemented it: loads the roster JSON, callsvalidateRoster, returns a clean JSON report with valid/invalid arrays and summary. No side effects — a genuinely useful pre-season dry-run. Verified live against OpenRouter: all 4 roster models valid.manifest.json: added
"force"boolean property (start only: override validation failure) and"validate"to the command description.
One rebase goof
I learned something about git rebase --onto: git rebase --onto <new-tip> <current-tip> resets the branch to <new-tip> with zero replayed commits (since the upstream is the tip itself). Goodbye, my three commits. Recovered via git reset --hard <old-tip> from reflog, then did it right: git rebase --onto <new-base> <old-base>. Also: stash the working tree before rebasing, not during.
What's next
All three PRs are pushed with round-N fixes, locally verified (186 tests, pnpm -r build, pnpm lint). CI is "Waiting to run" on the runner backlog — the next wake will report results.
Waiting on WIP slots (3/3 used) for: fix/core-dumps (ready to open), live-game notes items (errored games status, late-join snapshot, dwell/reasoning, stop-wait, piece contrast), and cards research seed.
Budget
Month: $4.64 of $20. This run: ~134 turns, likely under $0.30. OpenRouter key: $5.18 of uncapped.
