PR #5834 — test(approval): stop the gate tests racing their own TTL
Walkthrough
Tests-only change to security/approval/gate.rs that removes the implicit TTL contract between the test_gate() fixture and its distant call sites. test_gate() now builds a gate with the production DEFAULT_APPROVAL_TTL (10 min), so tests that never wait for expiry can no longer race it; the handful that genuinely wait a park out opt into a short EXPIRY_TEST_TTL (2s) explicitly, and the effective_ttl fallback tests use a distinct, un-shared BOOT_TTL_UNDER_TEST (7s) so they can't pass against the wrong source. A new decide_parked() helper asserts the row was still open (decide(...).unwrap().is_some()), so a mid-test expiry now fails naming the expiry instead of silently swallowing Ok(None) and failing two lines later on the outcome. The root-cause analysis (expiry-before-UPDATE in store::decide + a bare .unwrap() unwrapping the Result, not the Option) is accurate and well-supported, and the runtime table (2.50s → 2.52s, identical test set) is a convincing proof that no test_gate() caller silently sits on the 10-minute default. Overall: a clean, well-reasoned fix. No blockers, no majors — two doc-consistency nitpicks below.
Changes

Add EXPIRY_TEST_TTL / BOOT_TTL_UNDER_TEST consts and a test_gate_with_ttl() + decide_parked() helper; repoint test_gate() at DEFAULT_APPROVAL_TTL; move the 5 expiry-waiting tests and 3 fallback tests onto explicit TTLs; drop stale // TTL = 500ms / 2s inline comments. |

No blocking or major issues. Two nitpicks, both introduced/left by this diff:
Nitpicks (2)
-
src/openhuman/security/approval/gate.rs:1472— the doc comment undercounts theEXPIRY_TEST_TTLcall sites. Thetest_gate()doc says "the four that do ask forEXPIRY_TEST_TTLexplicitly", but there are five call sites:timeout_returns_deny(2042),cancel_flow_run_parks_for_approval_when_a_gate_is_present(2069), theTrustedAutomationflow test (2749),intercept_with_external_channel_origin_persists_and_ttl_denies(2898), andflow_tool_trust_auto_allows_before_parking(3155). The fifth is exactly the one the PR description calls out as having "hid from the obvious search" — the comment reads like it predates that discovery and wasn't updated. Since the whole point of this PR is to kill drifted TTL comments, it'd be a shame to ship a fresh one.// before /// reach it, and the four that do ask for [`EXPIRY_TEST_TTL`] explicitly // after /// reach it, and the five that do ask for [`EXPIRY_TEST_TTL`] explicitly
-
src/openhuman/security/approval/gate.rs:2928— stale "matches the test_gate fixture" comment survives the decoupling. This test now builds its gate withtest_gate_with_ttl(EXPIRY_TEST_TTL)(line 2898), yet the outcome comment still readsTTL-denies (2s — matches the test_gate fixture).. After this PRtest_gate()is no longer 2s (it'sDEFAULT_APPROVAL_TTL, 10 min), so the "matches the test_gate fixture" attribution is now wrong — the same kind of coupling comment the PR sets out to remove. The 2s value is still correct, only the source is misattributed.// before // Without a routable channel approval surface, the parked future // TTL-denies (2s — matches the test_gate fixture). // after // Without a routable channel approval surface, the parked future // TTL-denies after `EXPIRY_TEST_TTL`.
Questions for the author (1)
- Guarding against a future re-introduction of the 10-minute hang. The only thing now stopping a newly-added test from calling
test_gate()and then waiting a park out — silently re-incurring the fullDEFAULT_APPROVAL_TTL(10 min) hang you hunted down via the 600s wall-clock spike — is a human noticing the suite got slow. That's the fragile detector you describe. Not blocking, and I don't think a clean guard exists for the tests that deliberately let the TTL fire, but is it worth a short note indecide_parked()/test_gate()'s doc ("if you need a park to expire, usetest_gate_with_ttl(EXPIRY_TEST_TTL)") so the next author doesn't have to rediscover this from a slow CI run?
Verified / looks good
- Root cause is correctly diagnosed:
store::deciderunsexpire_stale_with_now(...)before its conditionalUPDATE ... WHERE decided_at IS NULL, so a lazily-expired row yieldsOk(None); the previousgate.decide(...).unwrap()unwrapped theResult, not theOption, letting the miss pass silently. decide_parked()closes exactly that gap:gate.decide(request_id, decision).unwrap().is_some()now fails on the expiry with an accurate message.BOOT_TTL_UNDER_TEST(7s) is deliberately distinct from bothDEFAULT_APPROVAL_TTLandEXPIRY_TEST_TTL, so theeffective_ttlfallback asserts (garbage/unset→ boot TTL) can't pass against the wrong source — a genuine tightening, not just an adaptation.- Tests-only; no production behavior changes.
mergeable: MERGEABLE, no conflicts againstmain. Verified test set is identical to baseline (124 tests) at ~unchanged wall time.
Review-only, per request: this is posted as a plain comment — I have not approved, requested changes, or merged. All findings above are nitpicks/questions; nothing here blocks the PR.

Nit: this now undercounts. There are five test_gate_with_ttl(EXPIRY_TEST_TTL) call sites (2042, 2069, 2749, 2898, 3155) — the fifth is the flow_tool_trust_auto_allows_before_parking one the PR description says "hid from the obvious search". Reads like the comment predates finding it.

Make expiry_gate() independent of inherited TTL overrides.
When OPENHUMAN_APPROVAL_TTL_SECS contains a valid value, ApprovalGate::effective_ttl() uses it at park time instead of EXPIRY_TEST_TTL. expiry_gate() only holds TEST_ENV_LOCK; it does not control this variable. Set or remove the variable while the guard is held, and restore its prior value on drop. Otherwise, expiry tests can use an unintended duration or 0, which can make them timing-sensitive.

🌐 Web query:
Rust std::env::remove_var safety multithreaded programs exact contract
💡 Result:
The function std::env::remove_var is considered unsafe to call in a multithreaded program on most operating systems because the underlying C environment APIs (such as setenv and unsetenv) are not thread-safe [1][2][3]. The exact safety contract for std::env::remove_var requires that you must ensure no other threads are concurrently reading or writing the process environment [1][2]. This is effectively impossible to guarantee in multithreaded programs because many C libraries and even parts of the Rust standard library (such as DNS lookups via std::net::ToSocketAddrs) may read from the environment without using the std::env module [1][2]. Due to these inherent risks, the function is marked as unsafe starting in the Rust 2024 Edition [3][4]. On Windows, however, std::env::remove_var is considered sound to call in both single-threaded and multithreaded programs, as the underlying platform behavior differs [1][2]. If you need to prevent a child process from inheriting an environment variable, it is recommended to use the thread-safe alternatives Command::env_remove or Command::env_clear, which do not modify the environment of the current process [1][2]. For other use cases requiring global state, environment variables should generally be avoided in multithreaded code in favor of other synchronization mechanisms [3].

Do not mutate the process environment from this parallel fixture.
On non-Windows platforms, std::env::remove_var requires that no other thread reads or writes the process environment. expiry_gate() holds TEST_ENV_LOCK, but ApprovalGate::effective_ttl() reads OPENHUMAN_APPROVAL_TTL_SECS without that lock. A parallel test_gate()-based test can reach effective_ttl() while this remove_var runs, so the mutex does not satisfy the safety contract. Store the test TTL in gate-local state, or serialize every process environment access.

Restore the previous environment value when the fixture ends.
Line 77 removes a caller-supplied OPENHUMAN_APPROVAL_TTL_SECS value and never restores it. A later test in the same process can then observe the unset value after this fixture releases TEST_ENV_LOCK.
Save the previous value before removal. Return an RAII guard that restores it in Drop while it retains the mutex guard.

The layout one is the clearest: at 1904382d2 the gate's LEGACY_LIMITS entry for runner.rs was 1766 while the file was 1769 — main was failing its own gate. On current main the entry is 1769 and the file is 1766, so it passes. main @ fa044d388 is green on all lanes. A rebase clears all four; there is nothing to fix in your diff for them.
3. Review threads
Four unresolved, three of them stale against your latest push:
- @Al629176, "four" → "five" — already fixed; your current
gate_tests.rssays "the five that do". Outdated, safe to resolve. - CodeRabbit, "make
expiry_gate()independent of inherited TTL overrides" — already fixed;expiry_gate()takesTEST_ENV_LOCKand clears the var. Outdated, safe to resolve. - CodeRabbit "Major", "do not mutate the process environment from this parallel fixture" — the soundness argument is technically correct (
effective_ttl()reads the var atgate_setup.rs:61without the lock, soTEST_ENV_LOCKdoesn't cover the reader). But this is pre-existing, not introduced here:gate_tests_part_02_tests.rsonmainalready doesunsafe { set_var(...) }/remove_var(...)at lines 273, 279, 288, 294 and 303 under the same lock. Following the file's existing pattern is the right call for a test-race PR; genuinely fixing it means moving the override off the environment, which is a separate change. Reply saying that and resolve — don't grow this PR to absorb it. - CodeRabbit,
gate_tests.rs:77, "restore the previous environment value" — the only one still live against your current code, and it is a fair nit:expiry_gate()clears the var and never puts it back. Also pre-existing behaviour (the threeeffective_ttl_*tests onmainend with a bareremove_var), so I would not call it blocking. If you want it closed cheaply, return a small struct holding the savedOption<String>plus theMutexGuardand restore inDrop— you are already returning the guard, so the shape barely changes.
4. On the change itself
No objection. The Ok(None) analysis is right — decide runs expire_stale_with_now before its own conditional UPDATE, and .unwrap() on the Result walks straight past the Option, so the failure surfaced two lines later on the outcome and named the wrong event. decide_parked making that the assertion is the correct fix. Using a distinct BOOT_TTL_UNDER_TEST (7s) so the effective_ttl fallback tests can't pass against the default is a genuine tightening rather than an adaptation, and catching flow_tool_trust_auto_allows_before_parking via the 600s suite time is a good catch.
To get this green: rebase onto fa044d388, resolve gate_tests.rs as above, resolve/reply to the four threads. Nothing else needed from you. I have not pushed anything to your branch.
test_gate() hard-codes a 2s park window that every test in this suite shares, including the ones that never wait for an expiry. Most park a call, poll for the row, then decide it — so the window only has to outlast the poll, and it twice did not. tinyhumansai#2367 raised it 500ms → 2s after the row expired before decide() could fire; 2s then lost the same race under cargo-llvm-cov, where each sleep(10ms) in the 50×10ms poll budget stretches on a contended runner. Once the row is past expires_at, the expire_stale_with_now pass inside store::decide denies it before that call's own UPDATE ... WHERE decided_at IS NULL can match, decide returns Ok(None), the waiter is never woken, and the park resolves as a TTL Deny. Raising the number a third time would only move the threshold, so the coupling is gone instead. test_gate() now uses the production DEFAULT_APPROVAL_TTL, and the five tests that actually exercise expiry ask for the short window through expiry_gate(). part_02 already worked around the old coupling by hand — copilot_streaming_park_persists_the_clamped_expiry builds its own gate because test_gate()'s 2s "would make this assertion vacuous". expiry_gate() also holds TEST_ENV_LOCK and clears OPENHUMAN_APPROVAL_TTL_SECS while it does. effective_ttl() reads that variable at park time in debug builds, so without the lock an expiry test can park under the effective_ttl_* tests' value of 42 — and a row meant to die in two seconds outlives the test waiting for it. Clearing it also covers a developer who exported the variable in their own shell, which no lock can protect against. This addresses the CodeRabbit review point on the previous revision. decide_parked() replaces a bare decide().unwrap() at two call sites. The unwrap there unwraps the Result, not the Option, so a lazily-expired row passes silently and the test fails a few lines later on "the outcome was not Allow" — naming the wrong event. The assert names the real one. The effective_ttl_* tests move to a boot TTL of 7s, deliberately a value nothing else here uses: they read the TTL back out of the gate, so sharing a number with the default would let them pass against the wrong source.

What went wrong
Rust Core Coveragefailed on an unrelated PR (#5822) with a test that PR does not touch:The same test had passed one commit earlier in the same job (
1017 passed; 0 failed, 21.46s) and the red run had the same test count and was the faster of the two (20.70s) — so nothing about that PR added load. It is a TTL race, and the assertion that fires names the wrong event.Why
Most tests here park a call, poll for the row, then decide it. Nothing in them waits for expiry, so the gate's TTL only has to outlast the poll. Twice it did not:
decidecould fire".cargo-llvm-cov, where 1017 tests share a runner and eachsleep(10ms)in a 50×10ms poll loop stretches.The mechanism is in
store::decide, which runsexpire_stale_with_now(conn, Utc::now())before its own conditionalUPDATE … WHERE decided_at IS NULL. Once the row is pastexpires_at, expiry writes theDenyfirst, theUPDATEmatches 0 rows, anddecidereturnsOk(None)— the benign "expiry-while-live race" thatDecideMiss::AlreadyResolvedalready documents.And the call sites did
gate.decide(…).unwrap(), which unwraps theResult, not theOption. SoOk(None)passed through silently, the waiter was never woken, the park resolved as a TTLDeny, and the test failed two lines later on the outcome.The change
Raising the number a third time would only move the threshold, so this removes the coupling instead.
test_gate()now uses the productionDEFAULT_APPROVAL_TTL. Tests that never wait for expiry can no longer reach it.EXPIRY_TEST_TTL(2s) explicitly, so the suite's runtime is unchanged.effective_ttlfallback tests take a distinctBOOT_TTL_UNDER_TEST(7s) and assert against that constant instead of a bareDuration::from_secs(2). A number shared with the default would let them pass against the wrong source, so this makes them stricter, not just adapted.decide_parked()asserts the row was still open, so any residual instance names the expiry rather than the outcome.The TTL was an undocumented contract between
test_gate()and distant call sites, and it had already drifted: two still said// TTL = 500msand two more// boot-time TTL = 2s, all three raises out of date.One test hid from the obvious search
flow_tool_trust_auto_allows_before_parkingalso waits a park out, but assertsDeny { .. }without inspecting the reason, so it does not match a grep for"timed out". I only caught it because the suite went from 2.50s to 600.35s — one test sitting out the full 10-minute TTL — and it was the last to report. It now takesEXPIRY_TEST_TTLtoo. Runtime is the detector: if it stays at ~2.5s, no test is silently waiting on the default.Verification
main(baseline)Identical test set (diffed by name, both directions), same feature set CI uses.
The diagnostic half is proved with two throwaway tests that park, sleep past a 150ms TTL, then decide — deleted before commit:
The first reaches a
panic!()placed after the unwrap, which is what "passed through silently" means concretely; the second stops at the decision and says why.Tests only — no production code changes.
