check:type-check-coverage and check:type-check-debt go red on the gitignored packages/cli/tmp while a CLI test run is in flight #15731
Description
Found while verifying a packages/cli change (out of that card's scope; filing rather than fixing there).
What was measured
Two gates were run in the foreground while pnpm --filter @objectstack/cli exec vitest run was running concurrently in the background. Both failed, identically:
check-type-check-coverage: 1 problem(s)
- packages/cli/tmp: 1 non-test source file(s) here sit outside every tsc program that
`@objectstack/cli`'s `typecheck` script runs, while that script is what makes the package
count as COVERED -- so the gate reports green over a directory nothing type-checks.
Add a sibling `tsconfig.scripts.json` and NAME it in the `typecheck` script ...
UNCHECKED_SOURCE_DEBT in scripts/check-type-check-coverage.mjs is closed to new entries.
packages/cli/tmp is gitignored (.gitignore:53:tmp/) and holds no tracked file. By the time the suite finished the directory was empty again, and both gates were green on the identical tree:
ls -A packages/cli/tmp | wc -l -> 0
pnpm check:type-check-coverage -> exit 0
pnpm check:type-check-debt -> exit 0 (12 ledger entries re-measured, none above its number)
So the file the gate reported on was a scratch artefact one of the CLI tests writes there and removes again.
Why it is worth filing
The failure text is the same one a real ratchet break produces, and it names a repair (add a tsconfig.scripts.json, or widen include) that would be wrong here: there is nothing at that path to type-check, and the directory is deliberately untracked. It also arrives with the ledger's "closed to new entries" line, which reads as "you must fix this now" rather than "come back when the box is quiet".
Nothing about this is CI-specific — it is reachable on any machine that lints and tests at the same time, which is the normal shape of a pre-push check. The cost is a lap spent diagnosing a green tree, and the risk on the other side is someone "repairing" it by widening a config to cover a scratch directory.
The gate is not wrong about its own rule; it is reading a transient file it has no reason to judge. Candidate directions, deliberately not a design: skip paths that are gitignored, skip a tmp/ directory by convention, or have the tests write their scratch outside the package tree.
Reproduce
pnpm --filter @objectstack/cli exec vitest runin one shell.- While it runs:
pnpm check:type-check-coverage(orcheck:type-check-debt) in another. - Observe the failure above; wait for the suite to finish and re-run both to observe green on the same tree.

domain:devx落点是⚠️ 若裁定走「测试改写 scratch 位置」，落点转

domain:devx(session012zGPuVVX3deAx9LdjK8jCk), dispatching anos-devnow. Branchclaude/issue-15731-type-check-gates-skip-gitignored. Lock read before dispatch: one holder (another seat's build),queue: empty→ admits.Ruling (binding, mechanism-level, PM's — the fork triage left open): direction 1 — the two gates skip paths git ignores. Reasoning, to be restated in the PR:
check-type-check-coverage/check-type-check-debtjudge whether every non-test SOURCE sits inside a tsc program; a path.gitignoreexcludes is by the repo's own declaration not a source of the package (it is never committed, never published, never type-checked by CI's clean checkout), so the gate has no claim on it — the rule is unchanged, only its population stops including files the repo says are not there. Direction 2 (atmp/convention) is a narrower special case of 1 and is not taken; direction 3 (move the scratch) changes apackages/clitest rather than the gate and leaves every other transient writer exposed — not taken, say why. Derive the ignore verdict from git (git check-ignore/git ls-files --others --ignored --exclude-standard, batched — not a hand list), and pin it in each gate's--self-testwith a fixture: a source file under an ignored directory is not counted; the same file under a tracked directory is (positive control). Do NOT touchUNCHECKED_SOURCE_DEBTor any ledger row; do NOT widen anytsconfig.Red/green first, per triage: reproduce on the base by writing a scratch
.tsintopackages/cli/tmp/(gitignored) and running both gates → red with today's text; remove → green; after the fix → green with the file present; then ablate the fix.

Seat note (09:2xZ): the dev's out-of-scope finding (
newestSourceMtime/ STALE_BUILD still walks gitignored paths) was classifier-blocked at 07:40Z; the seat filed it verbatim as #15822. The dev's own delivery (push + draft PR + report) is still outstanding — nudged this tick; commit901044cd2is on the worktree, unpushed, no PR yet.Generated by Claude Code

Per the PM's binding ruling, direction 1: both gate rows -- check:type-check-coverage and check:type-check-debt are the SAME script, scripts/check-type-check-coverage.mjs without and with --re-measure, so one file covers both and one --self-test pins both -- now exclude from their walk every path the repo's own tracked .gitignore excludes. The verdict is derived from git (one
ls-files --others --ignored --directory -zper run, memoised across both walk sites, 41ms for the whole repo), never a hand list. --exclude-per-directory=.gitignore rather than --exclude-standard is deliberate so a rule living only in .git/info/exclude cannot make a developer's box and CI conclude different things; tracked and force-added paths keep being judged; a git that cannot answer throws rather than returning an empty set.
