Pass the fake descendant the parent process's stdout and stderr stream handles instead of Unix-style numeric file descriptors. This lets Windows duplicate the live ACP and diagnostic pipes so launcher shutdown can prove that inherited handles, buffered frames, and stderr all drain after the parent exits.
Observe the pending update promise before initiating shutdown as well, preventing a missing late frame from becoming a transient unhandled rejection before the assertion reports the fixture failure.
The ACP bridge registers the first real approval answerer: an ask for an
agent it owns becomes session/request_permission attached to the already-
streamed tool call (one-shot allow_once/reject_once only), outcomes map
conservatively (unknown optionId never grants, client cancel → cancelled),
and foreign or call-less requests delegate down the waterfall. The snapshot
harness accepts scripted permissionAnswers (FIFO; an unscripted prompt
answers cancelled, fail closed) so recorded scenarios can drive the wire
keylessly.
A scripted fake ACP agent bin (tests/fixtures/fake-acp-agent.ts) speaks
real newline JSON-RPC through the REAL runScenario spawn path (tsx
loader, temp cwd, env plumbing); every behavior — prompt outcome,
session/new rejection, persisted logs, filesystem noise — comes from a
behavior.json beside the fixture, so specs script whole subprocess runs
from data. harness.spec.ts drives every step op, both expect-error arms,
the permission-stub default, env forwarding, workspace seeding, and the
harvest ordering/noise/fallback branches. suite.spec.ts runs the factory
for real at collection time: a replay suite over committed synthetic
fixtures and a record suite over a temp copy (write-back never touches
the committed tree; ACP_SNAPSHOT_SPEC_BOOTSTRAP=1 re-bootstraps it),
plus direct cases for the exported pure helpers. The suite factory's
pure helpers (childFixturePaths, fixtureContext, normalizedHeaders,
headerDeltaCount) are exported for those direct specs.
Two branches carry justified v8 ignores, both structurally unreachable:
the waiter in-bounds guard (noUncheckedIndexedAccess) and waitForExit's
already-exited race guard (both call sites sit one synchronous frame
after stdin.end()/kill()). The fake bin substitutes the session/new cwd,
not process.cwd(), into scripted logs — the realpath difference
(/private on darwin) is exactly what the real bin's header carries.
packages/support/acp-snapshot/src is at 100% statements, branches,
functions, and lines under the per-file gate.
