fix(coding-agent): report the shell exit code when bash times out after the shell exited (#11813)
Fixes #11613. ## Problem The bash tool waits for stdout/stderr to close, not only for the shell to exit (#5303). A background process that inherited those pipes and keeps writing keeps the tool waiting after the shell exited. When the timeout then hits, the tool reported only `Command timed out after N seconds`. Example, timeout 3s: ```bash bash -c 'while true; do echo tick; sleep 0.05; done' & sleep 1; echo boom >&2; exit 1 ``` The shell exits with code 1 after ~1s. The tool still times out at the deadline, because the loop is still writing to its output. Both facts are true: the command failed with code 1, and something it started was still running at the timeout. The old message dropped the first, so the model read a failed command as a slow one and retried with a longer timeout, which never helps here. ## Fix The timeout stays a timeout, since the tool did hit its deadline while background processes were still writing. When the shell had already exited before the deadline, the message now also says so: ``` Command timed out after 3 seconds. The shell exited with code 1 after 1.1 seconds, but background processes it started kept writing output until the timeout. ``` A shell still running at the deadline keeps the plain `Command timed out after N seconds`. The local backend throws a module-private `ShellTimeoutError` with the message `timeout:<seconds>` as before, so custom `BashOperations` that throw `timeout:N` are unaffected. ## Behavior per platform - Linux and macOS: the shell runs in its own process group (`detached: true`). At the deadline `kill(-pgid)` still reaches the background processes after the shell exited, the pipes close, and the tool returns at the deadline. Tested on Linux; macOS uses the same mechanism and matches the macOS repros in the issue. - Windows: still not fully solved. At the deadline `taskkill /T /PID <shell>` fails with `process not found`, because the shell pid is gone. Walking parent pids does not help: Git's `bin\bash.exe` is a launcher for `usr\bin\bash.exe`, and the orphaned loop's parent is that already-exited inner bash, not the pid pi holds. The tool keeps reading until the output pauses for 100ms. Measured with Git Bash: the message is now correct, but the tool returned after 14s instead of 3s; with a loop that never pauses it never returns. This PR only fixes the reporting. ## Same pattern elsewhere - `packages/durable/src/env/node.ts` (`NodeExecutionEnv.exec`): same code, same false `timeout:N` after the shell exited. Same Windows limitation. - `packages/coding-agent/src/core/exec.ts` (`pi.exec` for extensions): the timeout sends SIGTERM/SIGKILL to the direct child only, no process group. A descendant that keeps writing keeps the call waiting past the timeout on every platform, and the result has `killed: true` even when the child had already exited with its own code. - `packages/coding-agent/src/core/package-manager.ts` (capture commands for git/npm): waits for `close` and kills only the direct child on timeout, so a descendant holding the pipes makes the timeout ineffective on every platform, even when the descendant writes nothing. - `packages/mcp/src/transports/stdio.ts`: on Windows, closing a server that already exited skips taskkill, so children holding its pipes survive. The code documents this as a known limitation. Possible follow-up for Windows and the cases above: once the deadline passed, stop waiting for the pipes (destroy our ends). On Windows this also ends most writers, which die from a broken pipe (tested with Git Bash). ## Tests - `test/suite/regressions/11613-bash-timeout-after-shell-exit.test.ts` (Unix only; it would hang on Windows for the reason above): background writer after the shell exits with code 3, and a shell still running at the deadline. The first case fails without the fix. - Checked manually on Windows 11 with Git Bash through the built bundle: both messages are as above. - `npm run check`, `test/tools.test.ts`, the #5303 and #5208 regressions, `bash-close-hang-windows`, `powershell-tool`, `shell-kill-process-tree`.

### Fixed
|
||||
|
||||
- Fixed the bash tool reporting only `Command timed out` when the command had already exited but a background process it started kept writing to its output until the timeout. The error now also reports the shell's exit code and when it exited ([#11613](https://github.com/earendil-works/pi/issues/11613))
|
||||
- Images in steering and follow-up messages, including `prompt()` while streaming, are now resized like images in idle prompts instead of being sent and saved at full size ([#11738](https://github.com/earendil-works/pi/issues/11738))
|
||||
- A failed token refresh of an MCP connection no longer registers an OAuth client or replaces the PKCE verifier of a sign-in in progress, which made that sign-in fail. MCP sign-in now refreshes the stored tokens with the stored client even when the loopback callback port changed, instead of registering a new client and opening the browser. Ctrl+C in `/mcp` and the `--timeout` of `pi mcp login` now also stop a sign-in while it waits up to 25 seconds for another pi process's token refresh, and a refresh lock that fails for another reason than that wait now fails the sign-in instead of opening the browser.
|
||||
- Fixed `pi mcp list` reporting MCP servers with `"auth": { "provider": "<provider>" }`, such as Radius, as needing sign-in although the provider was signed in: the shell command sent no token. It now sends the provider's `/login` token and refreshes it when it expired. For these servers the sign-in hint names `/login <provider>` instead of `pi mcp login`, and `pi mcp login` and `pi mcp logout` point to `/login` and `/logout` instead of failing with "does not use OAuth"
