refactor(ingestion): delete legacy call-resolution DAG + heritage processor (RING4-1, #942) (#2023)
* refactor(ingestion): delete legacy call-resolution DAG + heritage processor (#942)

RING4-1: all 16 production languages (incl. Vue #940) are registry-primary, so
the legacy resolution legs only ran under the now-removed CI parity gate. Calls
and inheritance now resolve exclusively through scope-resolution
(Registry.lookup, preEmitInheritanceEdges, emitHeritageEdges, buildMro →
MethodDispatchIndex).

Removed:
- Call-resolution DAG: call-processor.ts legacy body (processCalls,
  processCallsFromExtracted, resolveCallTarget + all resolver/dispatch/chain
  helpers), model/resolve.ts MRO-via-HeritageMap, model/heritage-map.ts,
  type-env DAG types; inferImplicitReceiver/selectDispatch LanguageProvider
  hooks + Ruby impls; DispatchDecision/ImplicitReceiverOverride/ReceiverEnriched.
- Legacy heritage path: heritage-processor.ts, heritage-types.ts,
  heritage-extractors/, @heritage.* tree-sitter queries, heritageExtractor/
  heritageDefaultEdge/interfaceNamePattern wiring, worker + parse-impl heritage
  passes (parse-worker/parsing-processor lockstep), cross-file-impl DAG pass.
- Scope-parity infrastructure entirely (no legacy↔registry parity left to run):
  scripts/run-parity.ts, scripts/ci-list-migrated-languages.ts,
  ci-scope-parity.yml, test:parity, and the scope-parity ci.yml gate. Resolver
  integration tests still run via the normal tests job.

Kept (shared infra, NOT call-DAG-only): type-env.ts buildTypeEnv (field
extraction / structure phase / embeddings), model/resolve.ts c3Linearize +
gatherAncestors (mro-processor mroPhase), route/fetch/exported-type-map helpers
in call-processor.ts, preEmitInheritanceEdges (legacy-edge dedup simplified).

Acceptance: grep for resolveCallTarget/inferImplicitReceiver/selectDispatch/
buildHeritageMap/HeritageMap/processHeritage/heritageExtractor/@heritage. is zero
across src + test. tsc clean (both packages); resolver integration suite green
(bit-compatible EXTENDS/IMPLEMENTS/CALLS); scope-capture fingerprints unchanged
(python re-baselined: removed redundant ignored captures). ARCHITECTURE.md
updated to scope-resolution-only.

* fix(review): apply autofix feedback (#942)

ce-code-review autofix pass on the RING4-1 deletion:
- parse-cache.ts: bump SCHEMA_BUMP 2→3 — ParseWorkerResult lost its `heritage`
  field, so stale on-disk caches must invalidate (prevents a rollback replaying
  a heritage-less cache into legacy code) [api-contract P2].
- parse-impl.ts: drop 3 now-unused type imports (ExtractedCall,
  ExtractedAssignment, FileConstructorBindings) left by the deferred-block
  removal — would fail the eslint CI gate [correctness+maintainability P1].
- AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md / scope-resolver.ts contract doc: fix stale pointers to
  the deleted "§ Call-Resolution DAG" section + removed hooks; preserve the
  language-neutrality rule [project-standards P1].
- registry-primary-flag.ts / cross-file.ts / parse-impl.ts: refresh stale
  comments referencing deleted symbols (legacy DAG, runCrossFileBindingPropagation).

* refactor(ingestion): remove the vestigial isRegistryPrimary flag (#942)

With the legacy call-resolution DAG deleted, the per-language
`REGISTRY_PRIMARY_<LANG>` / `isRegistryPrimary` / `MIGRATED_LANGUAGES` flag had
only one meaningful state — every production language resolves via
scope-resolution — and an explicit `=0` override could only *disable*
resolution with no fallback (a footgun the review flagged). Removing it.

- Delete `registry-primary-flag.ts` and the now-dead `shadow-harness.ts`
  (legacy↔registry shadow-parity tool) + its test.
- Collapse the three flag gates to their behavior-preserving outcome
  (`SCOPE_RESOLVERS == MIGRATED_LANGUAGES`, so this is a no-op):
  - scope-resolution phase now runs for every registered `SCOPE_RESOLVERS`
    entry (was `∩ MIGRATED_LANGUAGES`).
  - import-processor `addImportGraphEdge` + parse-impl `shouldAccumulate`:
    the legacy emit/accumulate paths were already inert for migrated
    languages (scope-resolution owns IMPORTS via the imports-to-edges bridge);
    drop the flag term.
- Collapse flag-branching tests to the scope-resolution path and delete the
  csharp legacy-`=0`-leg describe blocks; remove the ruby/rust-scope env-forcing
  hooks (no-ops now).
- Refresh docs/comments (ARCHITECTURE.md "one registration", scope-resolver
  cookbook, phase deps) — adding a language is now a single `SCOPE_RESOLVERS`
  registration.

Verified: tsc clean (both packages); resolver integration tests green
(747 assertions across cobol/csharp/ruby/rust/typescript/go, IMPORTS edges
intact); grep for the flag symbols is zero across src + test.

* style(format): prettier formatting on #942 changes

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(ci): drop legacy heritage-capture tests + re-baseline scope-capture fingerprints (#942)

Two CI failures from the #942 cleanup, surfaced by the tri-review + CI:

- tree-sitter-languages.test.ts: two tests asserted `@heritage.*` captures
  (Rust trait-impl, Dart extends/implements/with) that this PR removed. The
  acceptance grep used `@heritage\.` (with `@`); these reference the runtime
  capture name `heritage.trait` (no `@`), so they slipped the earlier sweep.
  Inheritance is now covered by the resolver integration suite. (fixed macos-latest)

- Re-baselined the scope-capture bench fingerprints for csharp/rust/ruby/java/
  javascript/kotlin (baselines.json) + python (python-scope/baseline-fingerprint.txt).
  The earlier test-cleanup reworded comments inside the lang-resolution fixture
  files (Shapes.cs, child.rs, derived.rb, IA.java/Plain.java, Service.js, F.kt,
  app.py) to scrub deleted-symbol references for the acceptance grep; those are
  the bench corpus, so capture node positions shifted. Capture LOGIC is
  unchanged — verified `--check` passes for all 14 langs + python. (fixed benchmarks)

* docs/chore: scrub remaining REGISTRY_PRIMARY + deleted-symbol references (#942)

Tri-review P3 follow-ups (verified):
- TESTING.md: rewrite the "Scope-resolution parity" section — the legacy
  dual-leg (REGISTRY_PRIMARY_<LANG>=0/1) and `npm run test:parity` no longer
  exist; resolver tests run once on the sole scope-resolution path in the
  normal tests job.
- scripts/bench-scope-resolution.ts: drop the inert `REGISTRY_PRIMARY_PYTHON=1`
  env set + usage hint (the flag is gone).
- ruby/scope-resolver.ts, php/captures.ts: re-point doc-comments off the
  deleted heritage-map.ts / heritage-processor.ts to the current behavior.

* fix(ci): prettier format + regenerate scope-capture goldens (#942)

Two more CI failures, same root cause as the bench re-baseline (the
test-cleanup reworded comments in lang-resolution bench/golden-corpus fixtures):

- quality/format: prettier on tree-sitter-languages.test.ts (blank line left by
  the deleted heritage-capture tests) + TESTING.md (the rewritten section).
- tests/ubuntu/coverage: `csharp-captures-golden` (and python/ruby/rust) drifted
  because the edited fixtures feed the per-language capture-golden snapshots too
  (not just the bench). Regenerated via UPDATE_GOLDEN=1. Verified safe: only the
  edited-fixture entries changed; csharp `captureGroups` unchanged (38) — digest
  shifted from comment-position only; capture LOGIC untouched. 1168 scope-
  resolution tests pass.

* test(resolvers): drop createResolverParityIt wrapper, use vitest it directly

The parity-aware `it` wrapper became a no-op when #942 removed the legacy
call-resolution DAG (it just returned vitest's `it`). Remove it entirely so
the resolver tests call vitest's `it` directly instead of shadowing it with a
local `const it` (or `pit`/`rustParityIt`):

- helpers.ts: delete createResolverParityIt + its now-unused vitestIt import
  and VitestIt type.
- 16 files: drop `const it = createResolverParityIt('x')` and import `it`
  from vitest instead.
- ruby.test.ts (pit) + rust.test.ts (rustParityIt): rename calls to `it`.
- Scrub every comment that described the removed wrapper / dual-mode parity
  skip / legacy_skip gate (vue-scope, js/ts/dart/php/python headers, rust x2,
  cpp, swift x4, rust-coverage). Genuine test rationale is kept; only the
  vestigial two-leg framing is dropped. Accurate "legacy DAG (removed in
  #942)" historical notes are retained.

No fixtures touched (no bench/golden re-baseline). tsc clean; rust+ruby
resolver suites green (323 tests, incl. #1992 worker-path parity after a
local dist build).

Testing — GitNexus

How we structure tests and which commands to run locally and in CI.

Packages

Package Path Runner Notes
CLI + MCP core gitnexus/ Vitest Primary test surface in CI
Web UI gitnexus-web/ Vitest Unit/component tests
Web UI E2E gitnexus-web/ Playwright Run when changing UI flows

Test lanes

gitnexus/ commands

From gitnexus/:

Command What it runs When to use
npm test Full suite (all 3 vitest projects) Before opening a PR
npm run test:unit Unit tests only (test/unit/) Tight development loop
npm run test:integration Integration tests (test/integration/) After changing pipelines, DB, workers
npm run test:coverage Full suite + v8 coverage with thresholds Checking coverage impact
npm run test:parity Scope-resolution parity for all migrated languages After changing resolver or scope code
npm run test:cross-platform Platform-sensitive subset only Debugging a Windows/macOS issue
npm run test:watch Vitest in watch mode Active development

gitnexus-web/ commands

From gitnexus-web/:

Command What it runs When to use
npm test Unit/component tests (vitest) After changing web code
npm run test:coverage Unit tests + coverage Checking coverage impact
npm run test:e2e Playwright browser tests After changing UI flows (requires gitnexus serve + npm run dev)

Before opening a PR

cd gitnexus && npx tsc --noEmit && npm test
cd ../gitnexus-web && npx tsc -b --noEmit && npm test

Pre-commit hook

A husky pre-commit hook (.husky/pre-commit) runs automatically on every git commit:

  1. Formattinglint-staged runs prettier on staged files
  2. gitnexus-web/ files stagedtsc -b --noEmit
  3. gitnexus/ files stagedtsc --noEmit

Tests do not run in the pre-commit hook — they run in CI (ci-tests.yml) only.

Skip with git commit --no-verify (use sparingly).

Vitest projects

gitnexus/vitest.config.ts defines three projects for safety isolation:

Project Files Parallelism Purpose
lbug-db Native LadybugDB integration tests (explicit list) Sequential Prevents file-lock conflicts from native mmap addon
cli-e2e skills-e2e.test.ts Sequential CLI process spawning requires serial execution
default Everything else Parallel Fast execution for pure logic and parser tests

When adding a new test that uses native LadybugDB (@ladybugdb/core), add it to the lbug-db project's explicit include list and the default project's exclude list.

Test categories

  • Unit — Pure logic, parsers, graph/query helpers; fast; no network.
  • Integration — Real combinations (filesystem, MCP wiring, larger pipelines) as already organized under gitnexus/test/integration.
  • Resolver / parity — Language-specific call-resolution tests in test/integration/resolvers/.
  • E2E (web) — Critical user paths only; prefer data-testid attributes for stable selectors. Tests run against real backend (gitnexus serve) and Vite dev server.

Scope-resolution tests

Every language resolves calls and inheritance through the scope-resolution pipeline — the legacy call-resolution DAG and the per-language REGISTRY_PRIMARY_<LANG> flag were removed in RING4-1 (#942). Each language's resolver test lives at test/integration/resolvers/<slug>.test.ts and runs once, on the single scope-resolution path, as part of the normal tests job (vitest test/**/*.test.ts).

Adding a language: register its ScopeResolver in scope-resolution/pipeline/registry.ts (SCOPE_RESOLVERS) and add the resolver test file — no workflow or config edit needed.

Cross-platform testing

Windows and macOS CI runs only the platform-sensitive test subset (~50 files out of 373). The full suite runs on Ubuntu.

The subset is defined in gitnexus/scripts/cross-platform-tests.ts and includes:

  • Platform-specific logic — tests with process.platform guards, path.sep behavior, EPERM/EBUSY error classification
  • Native LadybugDB — all lbug-* integration tests (N-API addon with known platform-varying behavior)
  • Process spawning / CLI — tests using real child_process.spawn, shell quoting, CLI invocations
  • Worker threads — tests spawning real worker_threads
  • Native addon loading — tree-sitter grammar loading smoke tests
  • Filesystem behavior — CRLF handling, directory walking, symlinks

When adding a platform-sensitive test, add it to the appropriate section in scripts/cross-platform-tests.ts.

Confirming no tests are orphaned

Every test file matches one of the three vitest projects. To verify:

cd gitnexus
npx vitest list 2>/dev/null | wc -l  # should match total test count

To check the cross-platform list is up to date, run npm run test:cross-platform — it fails fast if any listed file is missing.

CI integration

GitHub Actions (.github/workflows/ci.yml) orchestrate:

Workflow Jobs Purpose
ci-quality.yml format, lint, typecheck, typecheck-web, workflow-convention Code quality gates
ci-tests.yml ubuntu/coverage, cross-platform (Win/Mac), packaged-install-smoke Full suite + coverage on Ubuntu; platform-sensitive subset on Win/Mac
ci-scope-parity.yml discover, parity Scope-resolution parity for all migrated languages
ci-e2e.yml e2e (chromium) Playwright E2E, gated on gitnexus-web/** changes

The CI Gate job in ci.yml is the single required check for branch protection. It requires quality, tests, e2e, and scope-parity to all pass.

Regression testing

Re-run the full relevant suite when:

  • Prompt or agent-behavior documentation changes (if tests encode behavior)
  • Model or embedding-related code paths change
  • Graph schema, query contracts, or MCP tool shapes change
  • Dependencies with parsing or runtime impact upgrade

User acceptance / beta (optional)

For staged releases or UI betas: deploy to a staging environment, collect structured feedback, watch errors and latency, then iterate before a wider release.
