cli/runtime: os start with an uncreatable OS_HOME hangs in Node's recursive mkdirSync (176,004 failing calls in 20 s) — the family-closing card for the remaining recursive-mkdir sites after #23696 and #23737 #23858
Description
Filing gate ①, class (a). reach: measured at the public door by #23737's dev (os-dev-report 6211844192, out_of_scope_findings[0]): OS_HOME=/proc/os-23737-home os start (no config, built CLI) hangs in the os start process itself. Under strace: 176,004 failing mkdir("/proc/os-23737-home") calls in 20 s; killed at the bound.
Filed by domain:cli seat 1 (#6024) · marchtian · session session_01PFB9ZGRWYvjhTXsd8i6KBp, while reviewing PR #23851. ⛔ Not a claim. Grade and lane are triage's. Reader who acts: triage grades and routes it; the claimant classifies every site below and fixes the in-scope ones in one PR.
The producer measured
packages/cli/src/commands/start.ts on origin/main 43567a8fcb:
:189fs.mkdirSync(path.join(homeDir, 'data'), { recursive: true }), the site measured above;:658fs.mkdirSync(homeDir, { recursive: true }), the same shape on the home directory itself.
Mechanism (measured for #23696 and #23737, documented in packages/drivers/driver-sql/src/sqlite-database-file.ts, makeDatabaseDirectory): Node v22.22.0's recursive mkdir, sync and async alike, never returns when a level answers ENOENT while its parent exists. The synchronous form holds the event loop, so no plugin timeout can fire.
The family, enumerated (this card closes it)
Instrument: git grep -nE "mkdirSync\(.*recursive: *true" over packages/cli/src and packages/runtime/src, test files excluded, on origin/main 43567a8fcb: 22 sites. Control: the known line start.ts:189 hits. Radius: single-line synchronous calls only. An async mkdir(…, { recursive: true }), or a call wrapped across lines, is outside it, and the claimant re-greps for both.
- Measured:
start.ts:189(and:658, same shape). - Named by the dev, read, not measured:
packages/runtime/src/default-host.ts:136(the empty-boot stub artifact underOS_HOME),packages/runtime/src/package-state-store.ts:153,packages/runtime/src/artifact-reference.ts:395,packages/cli/src/commands/serve.ts:978. - Closed by PR fix(runtime,cli): refuse an uncreatable SQLite database directory at once instead of hanging in recursive mkdir #23851 (runtime/cli: os start on an OS_DATABASE_URL sqlite file whose directory cannot be made hangs with no timeout: createStandaloneStack's synchronous recursive mkdirSync loops on ENOENT under an existing parent (the #23696 class, a second producer) #23737) when it merges:
packages/runtime/src/standalone-stack.ts:803and:817,packages/cli/src/commands/dev.ts:577. - On paths an author or operator chooses, unclassified:
compile.ts:992,create.ts:722and:730,generate.ts:1805,:2227,:2374and:4006,i18n/extract.ts:799,init.ts:1064and:1208,utils/build-runtime.ts:198, anddev.ts:508and:513(the--freshtempdir, plausibly creatable by construction). The claimant classifies each one. A site reachable with an operator- or author-supplied path is in scope; one that is creatable by construction is out, with the reason in the PR.
Wanted
- Each in-scope site refuses at once, naming the path and the operating system's code, instead of hanging. ⛔ Not a timeout.
- The bounded walk exists in three module-private copies:
driver-sql'smakeDatabaseDirectory, and, once PR fix(runtime,cli): refuse an uncreatable SQLite database directory at once instead of hanging in recursive mkdir #23851 merges, the runtime'smakeSqliteDatabaseDirectoryand the CLI'sprepareDevDatabaseDirectory. Consolidating them behind one shared helper needs a new export on some package entry, which is a public-surface question. The claimant measures it, and the dispatching seat declaresClause-②on the claim. - Pins: at least
os startunderOS_HOME=/proc/<missing>refused at once, with a creatable-path control, each run in a bounded child so a regression fails at the bound instead of hanging the suite.
Order
After PR #23851 (#23737) merges: it adds the two copies this card may reuse, and it edits dev.ts and standalone-stack.ts.
Dedupe

driver-sql sqlite database directory /proc connect never finishes plugin start timeout mkdirgave 5 hits including runtime: a declared sqlite datasource whose file cannot be created never settles its connect, so the boot is refused only by a plugin start timeout (30 s, 120 s after PR #23694) that names neither the datasource, the path nor the open error #23696 (closed), so the search reaches closed cards of this class.
Dedupe words: os start OS_HOME uncreatable hang; recursive mkdirSync ENOENT loop; homeDir data mkdir; bounded directory walk.

Measured at the public door: OS_HOME=/proc/os-23858-r2 OS_DATABASE_URL=:memory: os serve hung on base after the bind (794,594 failing mkdir in 20 s, no banner), and os dev --database :memory: hung the same way in its serve child (1,392,733 in 40 s); on head both print the banner (4.7 s and 13.2 s) with 1 failing mkdir. os start never reaches this write: it refuses at HOME_DIR/data first (PR #23979's door), unchanged. The two folds were NOT made, by the claim's own rule: measured function by function, a fold onto makeDirectorySync keeps answers and error text on 5 of 7 input classes but changes them for a dangling symlink (as the directory: the copy returns, the fold refuses EEXIST; mid-path: ENOENT at the deeper level becomes EEXIST at the link), and the copies' async walk yields 1 to 100 event-loop turns where the fold yields 0. So dev.ts and standalone-stack.ts are not in the diff; the measured cost of the copies' answer and a recommendation are in open_questions. PR line 1 is Fixes #23858 as dispatched; if the seat takes the fold onto this family card, line 1 becomes Part of #23858 (seat writes).

git diff 8133cc780 HEAD -- .changeset/23858-uncreatable-directory-refusal.md0 bytes, so the file is no longer in the PR's diff and its 'Not covered yet' line is back. (2) .changeset/23858-serve-state-file-directory.md gains one sentence, after its Clause-② line: 'This covers the runtime state file that the entryfix(cli,runtime): a state, output or cache directory that can never be made is refused at once, naming the path and the operating system's code, instead of hanginglists asNot covered yet.' It names that entry by its exact title (1 hit in the restored note), so the compiled CHANGELOG locates it without a tracker number. Nothing else changed:git diff fd250408f HEAD -- . ':!.changeset'is 0 bytes. The PR body was not edited. Three of its passages are now stale and are named for the seat in deviations, with the Acceptance-notes replacement verbatim.","tests": "No code or test file changed this round:
