"""tests/plexer.py - integration tests for tai's Plexer subsystem (the mplex backend and its control socket).
Deterministic throughout: this drives tai.py --plexer-wrap, a plumbing mode
that starts the mplex server and attaches a real shell on a real pty with no LLM
involved at all, so "test with the real AI" (tests/README.md) doesn't apply here
the way it does to tests/rag.py - there is no model decision anywhere in this
path to test. What's real instead is the pty/signal/socket mechanics themselves:
the whole point of this file is that it exercises the actual
`tai.py --plexer-wrap` binary under a real pty (via tai_test.py's own pty mode -
testing a pty wrapper by driving it through another pty), not mocked
termios/signal calls. The multiplexer's shortcuts and config live in tests/mplex.py;
this file covers what the agent tools rely on: the control socket, per-pane
targeting, file permissions and the session log.
A real bug was caught by actually running the original version of this test, not
by reading the code: an external SIGTERM (and SIGHUP) does not terminate an
interactive bash running as a pty.fork() session leader in this environment -
verified with a bare pty.fork()+bash+os.kill script, independent of any tai.py
code. The server therefore ends a pane with SIGHUP to its group, closes the pty,
and falls back to SIGKILL after MPLEX_REAP_KILL_AFTER seconds.

"""A real terminal emulator is always reading, continuously, for as long
as it's open -- that's what keeps a pty's output buffer from ever
backing up. This test harness has to replicate that explicitly: without
a background task doing this, NativePlexerBackend's relay loop can block
on its own os.write(stdout_fd, ...) the moment a command's echoed output
is large enough to fill the (unread) outer pty buffer, which stalls the
*entire* relay loop -- including replying to later control-socket calls,
which is what made this look like a control-protocol deadlock the first
time this was debugged, when the actual missing piece was this drain.
A second real bug, found immediately after fixing the first: once the
wrapped shell exits, the stream hits EOF and read() returns b"" forever
without blocking -- so a plain `while True: await proc._read_chunk()`
busy-spins at that point instead of idling, and spins hard enough to
starve the event loop so badly that even asyncio.wait_for's own timeout
machinery stops getting a fair turn. Hence the explicit EOF check."""

"""Targets specific bugs found and fixed during a deliberate review pass after
the happy-path test first went green - a happy-path test passing does not
mean the code is reliable, and all of these would have sailed through it:
1. File permissions: the control socket and the session log (which
captures the ENTIRE terminal session verbatim -- anything typed,
including passwords) were being created with umask-default
permissions, often world-readable/connectable on a multi-user box.
2. The control protocol's server side did a single recv() instead of
looping like the client side already did, silently truncating any
request too large for one read -- untestable with short demo strings,
which is exactly why the first test never caught it.
3. A malformed (non-JSON-object) request on the control socket was not
defensively handled and would have propagated an uncaught exception
out of the relay loop, crashing the user's entire live wrapped
terminal session over one bad control message.
4. A genuine deadlock: plexer_send used to write its text directly into
the pty master from inside the control-request handler. For a large
payload on an echo-enabled pty, that write can block waiting for
buffer space that only frees up once something reads the echoed
output back out -- which is the server loop's own job, and it was
the one blocked. Fixed by queuing all writes-to-child and only
ever draining them from the main select() loop, cooperatively with
reading the child's output, never as a blocking write from inside
request handling.
