OpenCodeServerLedger.test.ts ("observing as linux") flaked twice on main today: "records a group whose spawned wrapper already exited" in 39387268551 and "leaves a recycled pid alone when its start time does not match" in 39384036530. These were two separate races. Neither came from a recent change: git log since 2026-10-14 shows only #19559 (comments) and #21992 (observeLinux became fnUntraced, no behavior change). HostProcess is not involved.

Root cause

Wrapper exec race (a production bug). When the spawned process is a wrapper that has already exited, track scans the group and records a member whose command line ends with the serve args. A member that has forked but not yet called exec still shows its parent's command line, and that also ends with the serve args. The ledger recorded that pre-exec command line as the server's identity. After the child exec'd, the command line changed, so stopOrphan's exact command check never matched again and the orphaned server kept running. Under CI load the child is often still between fork and exec when track reads /proc. This produced expected true to be false.

Check-then-kill in the test's killGroup finalizer. The finalizer called groupExists(pgid) and then process.kill(-pgid). When a group's last member (here, the SIGKILLed sleep that init had not yet reaped) disappeared between those two calls, the kill threw kill ESRCH. That was the second failure; the ledger itself behaved correctly.

Fix

• The ledger entry records the serve args instead of the member's full command line. Both track and stopOrphan match with "the command line ends with the serve args", and that survives exec. The identity check is otherwise unchanged: pid, start time, and pgid must still match, and a process that is not running these exact serve args (a recycled pid, a different port) is still left alone. The entry version is now 2. A leftover v1 entry no longer decodes, so the reaper removes it without signaling anything, which is the safe direction.
• track no longer falls back to recording an arbitrary group member (members[0]) when none runs the serve args. Such an entry could only ever match by luck, and it is the same pre-exec problem. In that case track logs the existing "could not record" warning.
• The test's killGroup just kills and treats ESRCH as done.
• The wrapper test is now deterministic. Two fifos hold the wrapper's child before exec until after track has recorded it, then confirm the exec happened before reapOrphans. There are no sleeps or polling.

Reproduction

Run	Code	Result
Original file, idle loop	main	30/30 pass (never flaked locally)
Original file, 6 busy-loop CPU hogs on 4 cores	main	40/40 pass
Gated wrapper test (exec held until after track)	main ledger	fails 3/3 (both linux and darwin observers), same expected true to be false
Fixed file, CPU load loop	this PR	50/50 pass
Fixed file, idle loop	this PR	50/50 pass

The provider-opencode server tests (Ledger, Runtime*, ServerOwner) pass: 85/85. Typecheck and lint are clean for the package.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at 0d718f4

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — This is a narrowly scoped OpenCode process-ledger bug fix that makes orphan identification survive wrapper exec while preserving conservative pid, start-time, group, and argument checks. The accompanying test changes are isolated to deterministic process cleanup and race reproduction, with no product-default or static-analysis override changes.

📝 Walkthrough

The OpenCode server ledger now stores server arguments and uses them to identify processes during tracking and orphan cleanup. Tests update process-group termination and wrapper-exit cleanup behavior.

Changes: OpenCode server process tracking

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Persist and match serve arguments packages/provider-opencode/src/server/OpenCodeServerLedger.ts, packages/provider-opencode/src/server/OpenCodeServerLedger.test.ts	Ledger entries advance to schema version 2 and store server arguments. Process selection and orphan cleanup match recorded serve arguments. Tests cover direct SIGKILL with ESRCH handling and FIFO-coordinated wrapper-exit cleanup.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Scan group members when the live leader does not match.

If a wrapper remains the group leader while a child runs the serve command, members contains only the wrapper. When the wrapper command does not end with server.args, find returns undefined even though the child matches. track then writes no entry, so orphan cleanup cannot find that server after the owner dies. Search the group when the live leader does not match.

Note

🤖 Claude Opus 5.5 responding on behalf of Theo

This PR is still needed, and its test should win the conflict with main.

#22523 (merged) changed OpenCodeServerLedger.test.ts only: the wrapper fixture now prints ready from the inner shell, and the test waits for it before track(). killGroup now ignores ESRCH, the same as here. That made CI green, but it hides the pre-exec race instead of fixing it. The ledger in main still records the forked child's pre-exec command line, so the orphaned server you describe is still a real bug.

When rebasing, keep this PR's fifo-gated wrapper test and drop the ready wait from #22523. The gated test fails on the current ledger, so it guards the production fix.
