fix(stop): name the real refusal cause instead of asserting ownership#4170yeongjunyoo wants to merge 3 commits into
Conversation
`POST /api/stop` refuses for three distinct reasons — `respawnable_service`, `self_unload_service` and `service_state_unknown` — but `stopProxy` fell back to a hardcoded "a service installed under a different CODEX_HOME/OPENCODEX_HOME owns it" for all of them whenever the server sent no readable message. lidge-jun#4023 already carried the server's message through for this reason; the fallback was the half of it left guessing. When it guesses wrong the cost is not cosmetic: the operator re-checks CODEX_HOME, and the two commands point at each other — `/api/stop` says to run `ocx stop`, and `ocx stop` reports an ownership mismatch that does not exist. Capture the refusal `code` alongside the message and select the fallback from it, defaulting to cause-neutral wording rather than a specific wrong cause. The CLI's teardown notice no longer calls the process "foreign" either, since a respawning wrapper or the service itself is not another home's proxy. Refs lidge-jun#4169

Keep refusal metadata local to each stop attempt.
stopProxyGracefully writes HTTP 409 metadata to module-scoped state at src/lib/process-control.ts:187-188. An overlapping exported stopProxy call can overwrite that state before stopProxy reads it at src/lib/process-control.ts:228. The first call can then throw a ProxyOwnershipRefusedError with the second proxy’s message or fallback code.
Return { message, code } through a private per-call result and use that result to construct the error. Keep the exported accessors as observational state if callers require them. Add an interleaved test with two refusal codes and assert that each error retains its own cause.

Review follow-up: `stopProxyGracefully` wrote the 409 message and code to module-scoped state that `stopProxy` read after awaiting it, so two overlapping stops could interleave and the first would throw with the second's cause. Thread the refusal back through a private per-call result (`stopProxyGracefullyDetailed`) and build the error from that. The exported `stopProxyGracefully` signature and `GracefulStopResult` are unchanged, and the `lastStopRefusalMessage`/`lastStopRefusalCode` accessors stay as observational state for callers that only want the most recent refusal. The 409 source-oracle in grok-lifecycle asserted the literal `return "refused"`. It now matches a wrapped return too: the invariant it guards is that the 409 branch yields "refused" before the !res.ok fallthrough, which is ordering rather than spelling. Refs lidge-jun#4169

The per-call refusal result is the right direction: stopProxy now reads its own result rather than the observational module globals, and 409 still returns before wait/kill escalation. Code-specific and neutral fallback wording no longer invents another home as the cause. The source-oracle's wrapped-return allowance retains the refusal-before-fallthrough ordering check.
One test limitation remains: the overlap case parks the first call inside fetch, lets the second stop finish completely, then resumes the first. A module-global implementation can also pass that schedule because the first response writes its own globals after the second is done. Please add a counterfactual run showing the test fails with the old global-result handoff, arranging overlap between a refusal being published and that call's stopProxy continuation consuming it. Keep server-message precedence and unknown/unparseable-body controls.
Also update the description to include the per-call change and avoid saying an unparseable/bodyless response retains its code—the parser cannot recover a code from no JSON. This does not yet prove the original missing-message incident or the Windows stop loop resolved. Keep Draft pending exact-head full CI and Jun's final wording review; no local stop/service operation was executed.
…ndoff The previous overlap test parked one call inside fetch and let the other finish completely, then resumed it. The pre-fix global handoff passes that schedule too, because the parked call republishes its own globals last — so the test guarded nothing. Start both stops together instead. Verified as a counterfactual against the pre-fix implementation (506473d): the concurrent schedule fails there on the first iteration, with the respawnable_service call throwing the self_unload cause. It passes on the per-call result. Also renames the fallback test: a response with no readable body has no code either, so "falls back by code" describes it more accurately than "bodyless refusal falls back to its code".

You were right that the overlap test proved nothing, and I confirmed it rather than assuming: I checked out the pre-fix Pushed 4d72ef0 with a schedule that does discriminate — both stops started together. Counterfactual against 506473d: The Also fixed the wording you flagged: a response with no readable body has no code either, so the description and the test name no longer suggest a code survives an unparseable body — that case falls back to cause-neutral text, not to a code. The PR description now covers the per-call change and the counterfactual. Leaving it in Draft for exact-head CI and Jun's wording review as you asked.

The 4d72ef0 follow-up addresses my earlier test objection: it now starts both stops together, checks each resulting cause, and records a pre-fix failure instead of relying on a schedule the global handoff also passed. Server-message precedence and unknown-body controls remain intact. I inspected the delta; I did not independently execute the reported 20-iteration counterfactual.
The description still has one stale sentence under “What this changes”: “an empty or unparseable body still knows its cause.” Your newer test section correctly says the opposite. Please remove that sentence's contradiction before final review. Keeping the original missing-message/root-cause investigation separate is appropriate. Do not add unrelated scheduler behavior or rename the shared error type just to widen this fix. Draft/readiness and exact-head CI are still pending.

Fixes #4169.
What was wrong
POST /api/stoprefuses for three distinct reasons:respawnable_serviceself_unload_serviceservice_state_unknownstopProxypreferred the server's own message, but when no readable message arrived it fell back to a single hardcoded sentence naming a fourth cause that the server never reported:#4023 already carried the message through precisely because there is more than one cause. The fallback was the half of that fix still guessing, and the existing test says so in its own comment — "stopProxy used to report the first of those unconditionally, sending an operator whose proxy is simply the service to a CODEX_HOME that does not exist."
The cost is not cosmetic. On Windows with the Task Scheduler backend, the two commands point at each other:
POST /api/stop→ 409respawnable_service: "the stop must be run byocx stop"ocx stop→ "a service installed under a different CODEX_HOME/OPENCODEX_HOME owns it. Run the stop from that home."I hit this with matching homes (
service-state.json.codexHomeequal to the invokingCODEX_HOME) and spent three attempts re-exportingCODEX_HOMEbefore probing the endpoint directly and seeingrespawnable_service. The printed advice names a home that is already correct, and neither message mentions the wrapper that is actually refusing.What this changes
codenext to the message (lastStopRefusalCode()), so a refusal with an empty or unparseable body still knows its cause.No behavioral change when the server sends a message: that path is unchanged and still wins.

Review follow-up:
stopProxyGracefullypublished the 409 message and code to module-scoped state thatstopProxyread after awaiting it, so two overlapping stops could interleave and the first would throw with the second's cause. That applied to the pre-existinglastRefusalMessageas well, not only the code this PR adds.stopProxyGracefullyDetailednow returns{ result, refusal }andstopProxybuilds the error from that value. The exportedstopProxyGracefullysignature andGracefulStopResultare unchanged (it is a thin wrapper), andlastStopRefusalMessage()/lastStopRefusalCode()remain as observational accessors.The first version of the overlap test did not actually guard this. It parked one call inside
fetchand let the other finish completely before resuming — a schedule the global handoff also passes, because the parked call republishes its own globals last. I checked that against the pre-fix commit and it passed there, so it was proving nothing.The test now starts both stops together. Counterfactual, run against the pre-fix implementation (506473d):
The
respawnable_servicecall throws theself_unload_servicecause. It passes on the per-call result.What I did not do
ProxyOwnershipRefusedError. The name now overstates what it carries, but it is used acrosssrc/cli/index.tsand renaming it is a separate, wider change — happy to follow up if you want it.lastRefusalMessagewas null on that path, so this PR does not claim to fix it. It does make that class of failure non-misleading: whatever the reason a message goes missing, the operator is no longer sent to the wrong home.Review readiness checklist
