fix(ci): measure a stacked unit against its parent pull request - #1924
Fixes#1923 (this PR is one half of it; the issue covers both halves and should be closed only after both land).
What changes
mutation-diff keeps its existing base resolution for normal pull requests and adds one rule for stacked units:
the merge commit's second parent is the pull request head;
when that head's own parent is the head of another open pull request, this pull request is a stacked unit and the gate measures against that parent instead of main;
otherwise the event base is kept, so a multi-commit pull request is never charged only its last commit;
the job summary states which base was used.
The merge queue runs no gate of its own, so the per-PR gate is the only enforcement point. A parent head is accepted as a stacked base only when the parent is a ready (non-draft) pull request whose own run is gated; a draft parent is refused and the unit keeps the event base, so the content that would land through it is charged where it lands.
New cases: stacked parent resolves to the parent head; a non-stacked parent keeps the event base and still charges both commits; an unparsable map degrades to the event base. Workflow-shape assertions cover pull-requests: read, the PR_HEAD_SHA resolution, and --stacked-map.
Permissions stay minimal: the job only reads open pull request heads.
Review round (maintainer review, 2026-10-28)
Head 2034a0ba2.
Draft parents were accepted as a stacked base. A draft pull request is not gated (the workflow skips draft runs) and the merge_group run has no gate step, so a unit built on a draft was measured only on its own delta while the draft content could land through it. The open-PR map now carries draft, resolveStackedUnitBase() refuses a draft head, and a unit stacked on one keeps the event base so the changed-line cap sees the cumulative content. The resolver comment now states that the merge queue runs no gate and that the per-PR gate is the only enforcement point (the earlier "the merge queue checks the cumulative cap" claim above was wrong and is corrected).
The multi-parent guard test could not fail. It merged with the open PR head as the second parent, so parents[0] never matched the map. The test now builds a merge whose first parent is the open pull-request head; without parents.length !== 1 the merge would be measured as a one-commit stacked unit.
Verification: node --test scripts/stryker-diff.test.mjs -> 52 tests, 0 fail. Negative controls: dropping the draft filter and dropping the parents.length guard each turn exactly one test red; restored, 52/52 pass.
Main refresh (2026-10-28)
Merged upstream/main 3f51e9df7 (fcdfbf14), 0 behind main. The refresh added the compile job's repo-wide format:check; the two scripts this PR touches were formatted with the repo's own prettier config (no content change, node --test scripts/stryker-diff.test.mjs still 52/52). Every file this PR changes is prettier-clean.
The gate diffed every pull request against the merge commit's first parent, which is the base branch tip. For a stacked unit that base is main, so the whole unmerged chain was charged to the unit: the file-safety chain measured 512, 727, 783, 815 and 827 executable lines against a 500 cap, while each unit's own delta is 27-225 lines.
The merge commit's second parent is the pull request head. When that head's own parent is another open pull request's head, the pull request is a stacked unit and the gate measures only its delta. A pull request whose parent is not another pull request head keeps the event base, so a multi-commit pull request is never charged only its last commit.
An unparsable stacked map degrades to the event base instead of throwing, and the job summary records which base was used.

Summary
Summary by CodeRabbit
Chores
Mutation-testing checks can identify a non-draft parent pull request in a stack and compare the current pull request against it.
For a recognized stacked pull request, checks use its head for the comparison. Otherwise, they retain the standard event-based comparison.
If pull request details are unavailable or invalid, checks continue without a stacked pull request match. When the pull request head cannot be resolved, checks fall back to the merge commit.
The workflow passes open pull request data to the mutation diff script. When a PR head’s sole parent matches a non-draft open PR head, the script uses that parent as the diff base and the PR head as the diff head. It records the matched parent PR in the summary.

Summary
Fetch and pass open pull request data .github/workflows/mutation-testing.yml, scripts/stryker-diff.test.mjs
The workflow fetches paginated open pull request numbers, head SHAs, and draft status, then passes the map and merge commit details to the diff command. Tests check permissions, token scope, workflow inputs, and map publication.
Parse pull request map and resolve base scripts/stryker-diff.mjs, scripts/stryker-diff.test.mjs
The script accepts valid map entries and uses a PR head’s sole parent as the base only when that parent matches a non-draft open PR head. Otherwise, it retains the event base. Tests cover parsing and parent matching.
Select unit diff and report parent PR scripts/stryker-diff.mjs, scripts/stryker-diff.test.mjs
For a matched stacked unit, the script uses the PR head as the diff head, aligns the execution tree when needed, and preserves the resolved base during selection. It records the parent PR number and adds a summary notice. Tests cover selection, alignment, and summary output.
Zoo-Code-Org/Zoo-Code#2054: Adds equivalence validation for the manifest whose selected files and mutants are affected by this change.
Merge Risk: Moderate · up to fcdfb
Resolve parent eligibility checks before merging: the child can pass while excluding ancestor changes that lack applicable cap enforcement. Align installed dependencies and local reproduction steps with the measured tree as well.
Security architecture risk: Moderate · up to d4442
The new read token is appropriately isolated, but stacked measurement can omit inherited changes without a cumulative queue recheck and can apply child-revision line numbers to merged code. These changes weaken CI assurance; they do not directly grant production privileges.
Retained concerns
Medium · security · inferred: An open parent PR is sufficient to exempt its ancestor changes from the child's executable-line cap, without checking that the parent passed or will merge separately. A contributor controlling two PR heads could therefore obtain a passing child measurement while its actual merge includes an oversized parent delta. Previously the child gate measured that cumulative delta. The unchanged merge-group path only writes a summary, so it does not compensate for the newly narrowed scope. Actual admission remains dependent on external required-check and approval configuration.
Medium · reliability · inferred: Recognized stacks now produce changed-line coordinates from the parent-to-child diff, but source parsing and mutation execution still use the checked-out merge result. Upstream insertions or deletions in the same file can therefore target unrelated lines or omit changed executable lines, weakening both scope enforcement and mutation coverage. The baseline production invocation kept diff coordinates aligned with the merge-result source.
Security review details
Security Blast Radius
inferred — The supported exposure is repository CI assurance for mutation-tested packages. A contributor can influence parent recognition through PR commit history and another open PR head. The evidence does not establish additional production credentials, tenant access, or an unauthorized merge.
Security Findings and Attack Paths
inferred — A contributor can leave an oversized parent PR open and submit a small child on its exact head. Recognition excludes the parent's content from the child's cap even though that content remains in the child's merge ancestry. Parent approval or gate success is not checked by the resolver, and the queue path does not repeat measurement. External admission controls could constrain exploitation but were not available for verification.
Trust Boundaries and Controls
observed — Full-SHA validation and exact sole-parent matching constrain revision selection; Git commands receive argument arrays rather than interpolated shell commands. API failure produces an empty map, preserving the broader measurement rather than selecting an arbitrary base. These controls authenticate commit relationships, not the parent's approval or successful enforcement.
Resilience and Maintainability Implications
observed — Superseded runs are cancelled, both jobs have timeouts, and top-level gate errors set a failing exit status. These failure controls do not detect a successfully constructed but incomplete manifest, which can return normally without mutation execution.

Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
[#1923] Measurement requirements are implemented at head fcdfbf1.
Graph-based stacked detection: scripts/stryker-diff.mjs resolveStackedUnitBase reads the PR head's parents with rev-list. It accepts a parent only when the head has exactly one parent and that SHA equals the head of an open PR in the map. Otherwise it returns the event base with stackedOn null.
Multi-commit PRs: parents.length !== 1 returns the event base, so a multi-commit PR is never charged only its last commit.
Merge commit and PR head: the workflow resolves PR_HEAD_SHA from the merge commit's second parent and passes --pr-head. resolveCiInvocation diffs a stacked unit against its PR head and a plain PR against the merge commit.
Unparsable map: parseStackedMap returns [] on any malformed chunk or non-array, so the event base is kept. The workflow falls back to '[]' when gh api fails.
Job summary: formatSummary adds 'Stacked unit: measured against the head of parent PR #N, not the event base.' when stackedOn is set.
The draft refusal (pr.draft !== true) narrows the issue's literal design, which accepts any open PR head as the parent. This narrowing follows from the corrected enforcement premise: the merge queue runs no gate, so draft content must be charged to the PR that lands it. The PR objectives state this correction. The issue's merge-queue claim is superseded and is not required.
Limitation: the summary names a base only for stacked units. A non-stacked run prints no base statement, so a reviewer infers the event base from the missing notice. The issue's stated purpose (distinguish unit from chain) is met for stacked units.
Reviewer filtering (#1945, #1925) is excluded by the issue itself. The test counts and negative controls were not re-run in this assessment; the test-file changes were not inspected.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
All changed hunks in scripts/stryker-diff.mjs and .github/workflows/mutation-testing.yml support the stacked-unit measurement requirement of #1923:
resolveStackedUnitBase, resolveCiInvocation, parseStackedMap, and the --pr-head and --stacked-map CLI options implement detection and map parsing.
alignExecutionTree and the preserveBase option keep selection, source reads, and mutation on the diff head for stacked units.
formatSummary's stacked notice and the stderr/stdout messages report the base used.
The stacked_map job reads only { number, headSha, draft } with pull-requests: read and contents: read. Its output feeds the gate through needs and env. This is the least-privilege wiring the issue specifies.
The mutation-diff job gains needs and env only.
No change targets the reviewer label (#1945 and #1925), and no unrelated refactor was found in the inspected hunks. The formatting-only changes are confined to the files this PR already touches.
Full details: Regression Evidence
Explanation
PASS. The changed stacked-unit behavior has focused coverage in scripts/stryker-diff.test.mjs. Tests cover ready and draft parents, missing and malformed maps, paginated map streams, multi-parent heads, normal pull requests, merge-commit base preservation, diff-head selection, tree alignment, and summary output. Workflow-shape tests cover permissions, pagination, fallback, output wiring, token isolation, and CLI arguments. The job-summary text is covered as a string-format test; no Playwright snapshot is applicable to this GitHub Actions summary.
Full details: Security Boundaries
Explanation
No changed path meets the failure condition. The workflow confines GITHUB_TOKEN to the read-only map job, which does not checkout or run pull-request code. It passes only filtered PR numbers, draft flags, and SHA values to the gate. parseStackedMap rejects malformed input and accepts only 40-character hexadecimal SHAs. Shell arguments are quoted, and alignExecutionTree validates the SHA before checkout. The parent selection requires a non-draft open PR head, so the changed code does not bypass the stated allowlist.
Full details: Persistence Integrity
Explanation
No changed persistence path can cause state loss or corruption. The new $GITHUB_OUTPUT write is synchronous, and the workflow validates the value before writing; a write failure exits the map job, so the dependent gate does not consume a partial output. Malformed map data is rejected by parseStackedMap() and safely falls back to the event base. Summary writes remain synchronous and explicitly catch write failures. The changed checkout also uses synchronous execution and propagates failures.
Full details: Lifecycle Resource Cleanup
Explanation
No changed lifecycle path leaks a resource or duplicates work. The new workflow job uses bounded GitHub jobs with existing cancellation (cancel-in-progress: true) and no persistent listener, watcher, timer, or task. alignExecutionTree() performs a synchronous checkout before mutation execution. The changed tests clean temporary repositories in finally blocks, and setup failures clean them in catch.

Three gaps in the stacked-unit measurement:
1. PR_HEAD_SHA was computed but never passed, so the resolver ran on the merge commit, whose first
parent is the base tip, and never detected a stacked unit.
2. The gh api fallback was a bare '[]', which bash -e executes as a program name; an API failure
aborted the step instead of measuring against the event base.
3. selectFromGit re-derived the base from the merge commit, discarding the resolved stacked base.
It now keeps an explicitly resolved base, and a stacked unit is measured against its own head
rather than the merge commit, which also carries whatever main advanced since the parent unit.
Tests: 48 passed in scripts/stryker-diff.test.mjs.

The edit removed the blank line and the '- name: Upload mutation reports' header, leaving
'id: mutation_report' and a second 'if:' inside the gate step mapping, which is a duplicated
YAML mapping key and made the knip job fail while loading the workflow.

per_page=100 fetches only the first page, so a parent unit beyond page 1 is missing from the map
and the gate falls back to the event base and charges the whole unmerged chain again - exactly the
problem issue Zoo-Code-Org#1923 describes. gh api --paginate --slurp with a flattening jq filter covers every
page, and the shape is now asserted in the workflow test.

…eject a partial stacked map
Two findings from the review at head:
1. Functional Correctness (major). The gate derived selectors from the pull request head tree while
Stryker mutated the checkout, which is GitHub's merge commit. When main advanced a file the unit
also changed, the two trees disagree on line numbers, so selectors could target the wrong code or
miss the unit's changed lines. The ci command now aligns the working tree to the diff head before
mutation runs, so selection, source reads, and mutation all see one tree. The new test advances a
file on the base, merges, and asserts the tree used for mutation is the unit tree.
2. Functional Correctness (minor). parseStackedMap matched bracket groups and ignored trailing
garbage, so a partially readable map could still select a parent base instead of the event-base
fallback. It now consumes the whole stream of page arrays and returns [] when any part cannot be
parsed.
Also dropped the duplicated comment block above resolveCiInvocation.
Local run: 51 tests pass.
Both findings from the review at a1a5fe901 are addressed at 9dea54e3d (the threads were resolved after the fix, so the replies could not be attached to them).
Tree alignment (major) — the gate derived selectors from the pull request head tree while Stryker
mutated the checkout, which is GitHub's merge commit. When main advanced a file the unit also changed,
the two trees disagree on line numbers, so selectors could target the wrong code or miss the unit's
changed lines. The ci command now aligns the working tree to the diff head before mutation runs
(alignExecutionTree), so selection, source reads, and mutation see one tree. For a plain pull request
the diff head is already the checkout, so nothing changes. The new test advances a file on the base,
merges, and asserts the tree used for mutation is the unit tree, plus that a second alignment is a no-op.
Stacked map parsing (minor) — parseStackedMap matched bracket groups and ignored trailing garbage,
so a partially readable map could still select a parent base instead of the required event-base
fallback. It now consumes the whole stream of page arrays and returns [] when any part cannot be
parsed; the test that expected trailing garbage to be ignored now expects the whole map to be rejected.

The gate measured a unit against its parent PR head on the design's assumption that a draft parent would still be gated, but the workflow skips draft runs, so a unit stacked on a draft was charged only its own delta while the draft content landed through it. Draft heads are now refused as a base (the map carries the draft flag), so such a unit keeps the event base and the changed-line cap sees the cumulative content.
The merge queue runs no gate of its own, so the per-pull-request gate is the only enforcement point; the code comment now says so instead of claiming a cumulative merge-queue check.
Tests: a draft parent keeps the event base while the ready parent resolves; the multi-parent guard is now pinned by a merge whose FIRST parent is an open pull-request head, which the removed guard would have accepted. Negative controls: dropping the draft filter and dropping the parents.length guard each turn exactly one case red.
…check
main added a repo-wide prettier check to the compile job after this branch's base; the two scripts this PR touches were never run through it. No content change: prettier --write with the repo config, and node --test scripts/stryker-diff.test.mjs still reports 52/52 passing.
The maintainer's two review threads are addressed and the branch is refreshed onto main (head cdfbf14). Changes since the last review: a draft parent is refused as a stacked base (the map carries draft), the resolver documents that the merge queue runs no gate, and the multi-parent guard test now uses a merge whose first parent is the open PR head so removing the guard fails it. Both threads are replied to and resolved.

Require a passing gate on the parent head before using it as a stacked base.
resolveStackedUnitBase accepts any ready open PR whose head matches the child's parent. It never reads that PR's gate result. A parent that fails the 500-line cap can still serve as the base. The child then measures only its own delta and can pass. Merging the child lands the parent's commits on main, which bypasses the cap. Before returning the parent as the base, read the check status for the parent head SHA. Fall back to the event base unless it passed.

Update resolveStackedUnitBase to check the gate result for the matching parent
head SHA before using it as the stacked base; return the event base with
stackedOn set to null unless that gate passed.

Install dependencies from the same tree that the stacked gate checks out.
alignExecutionTree moves the checkout to the PR head after setup-node-pnpm installs dependencies from the merge tree. Stryker and the related-test run then use those merge-tree binaries with PR-head configs and sources. The code comment says selection, source reads, and Stryker must all see the same tree. Reinstall after the checkout when the lockfile differs, or reorder the steps.

Update the stacked execution flow around alignExecutionTree so dependencies are
installed from the same checkout tree used for test selection, source reads, and
Stryker execution. Reorder dependency setup or reinstall after alignment when
the lockfile differs.

Print a PR-head checkout in the reproduction steps for stacked units.
For a stacked unit, CI moves the working tree to the PR head before mutation. The printed Reproduce locally command does not. From a merge-commit checkout, it selects lines from the PR-head diff but mutates merge-tree source, so local results can differ from CI.

Update the “Reproduce locally” command generation in scripts/stryker-diff.mjs to
add a quiet checkout of manifest.headSha before installation and mutation when
manifest.stackedOn is set; leave reproduction steps unchanged for non-stacked
units.

Fixes #1923 (this PR is one half of it; the issue covers both halves and should be closed only after both land).
What changes
mutation-diffkeeps its existing base resolution for normal pull requests and adds one rule for stacked units:main;The merge queue runs no gate of its own, so the per-PR gate is the only enforcement point. A parent head is accepted as a stacked base only when the parent is a ready (non-draft) pull request whose own run is gated; a draft parent is refused and the unit keeps the event base, so the content that would land through it is charged where it lands.
Effect on the file-safety chain
No PR content changes; only the measurement base.
Verification
New cases: stacked parent resolves to the parent head; a non-stacked parent keeps the event base and still charges both commits; an unparsable map degrades to the event base. Workflow-shape assertions cover
pull-requests: read, thePR_HEAD_SHAresolution, and--stacked-map.Permissions stay minimal: the job only reads open pull request heads.
Review round (maintainer review, 2026-10-28)
Head
2034a0ba2.merge_grouprun has no gate step, so a unit built on a draft was measured only on its own delta while the draft content could land through it. The open-PR map now carriesdraft,resolveStackedUnitBase()refuses a draft head, and a unit stacked on one keeps the event base so the changed-line cap sees the cumulative content. The resolver comment now states that the merge queue runs no gate and that the per-PR gate is the only enforcement point (the earlier "the merge queue checks the cumulative cap" claim above was wrong and is corrected).parents[0]never matched the map. The test now builds a merge whose first parent is the open pull-request head; withoutparents.length !== 1the merge would be measured as a one-commit stacked unit.Verification:
node --test scripts/stryker-diff.test.mjs-> 52 tests, 0 fail. Negative controls: dropping the draft filter and dropping theparents.lengthguard each turn exactly one test red; restored, 52/52 pass.Main refresh (2026-10-28)
Merged upstream/main
3f51e9df7(fcdfbf14), 0 behind main. The refresh added the compile job's repo-wideformat:check; the two scripts this PR touches were formatted with the repo's own prettier config (no content change,node --test scripts/stryker-diff.test.mjsstill 52/52). Every file this PR changes is prettier-clean.
