Add a Windows CI job covering lint, compile, and test (#518)

[leynos]

Closes #518

Summary

Netsuke ships Windows binaries that no CI job ever compiles. 47
#[cfg(windows)] sites across 14 files were never linted, type-checked,
or tested, and reached users compiled for the first time at packaging
time — the worst place to discover a failure. This pull request adds a
build-test-windows job to .github/workflows/ci.yml that mirrors the
Linux build-test job on windows-latest, restricted to what is
platform-relevant.

What the job runs

• make check-fmt
• make lint-clippy (Clippy and cargo doc under -D warnings)
• make lint-whitaker (Whitaker installs and runs on Windows)
• make test (cargo-nextest + doctests under -D warnings -Zpolonius=next)

What is excluded (platform-independent, already covered on Linux)

• Documentation lints: make spelling, make markdownlint, make nixie
• Audit checks: coverage generation, the CodeScene coverage gate, and
  make test-workflow-contracts

Tooling provisioned for Windows

• GNU Make via Chocolatey (choco install make)
• Ninja via seanmiddleditch/gha-setup-ninja
• cargo-nextest via taiki-e/install-action, pinned to NEXTEST_VERSION
• Git Bash as the recipe shell (defaults.run.shell: bash), with every
  make invocation overriding SHELL to bash because GNU Make's Windows
  default recipe shell is cmd.exe
• The pinned nightly with -D warnings -Zpolonius=next passed through the
  shared setup-rust with.rustflags input, per the Polonius toolchain
  contract (no job-level env.RUSTFLAGS)
• whitaker-installer ships whitaker as a PowerShell wrapper on
  Windows; a bash shim in the cargo bin directory invokes it through
  PowerShell so make lint-whitaker can run it from Git Bash

Rollout posture

The job is a blocking merge gate: no continue-on-error remains on
the job or any of its steps, so a Windows failure or warning blocks the
merge. Making it blocking surfaced the never-compiled #[cfg(windows)]
surface under -D warnings; the findings were cleared at the source:

• dead-code and unused-import findings in test_support and the
  Windows-only test arms
• Clippy findings in Windows-only arms (missing_const_for_fn,
  unnecessary_wraps, needless_pass_by_value, shadowing, format-arg
  inlining, unused imports)
• Whitaker no_std_fs_operations findings in the Windows grep-stream
  test, routed through test_support::fs
• Whitaker's PowerShell wrapper on Windows, shimmed so the lint gate
  runs instead of failing on a missing command

Remaining Windows failures (blocking the merge)

The Test step currently fails on three cli::discovery tests on
windows-latest:

• cli::discovery::layer_tests::normalization_failure_does_not_fail_discovery
• cli::discovery::layer_tests::existing_project_scope_layer_is_not_appended_twice
• cli::discovery::tests::collect_diag_file_layers_uses_injected_explicit_config

These are pre-existing Windows path-identity bugs in src/cli/discovery*,
unrelated to the CI job change and out of this PR's scope. Root cause:
tempdir() returns short-name paths (C:\Users\RUNNER~1\...) on
Windows while ortho_config canonicalises layer paths to long names
(C:\Users\runneradmin\...), so the project-scope dedup key never
matches the recorded layer path and the layer is appended twice. They are
tracked for a follow-up; the job correctly blocks until they are fixed.

Known unknowns resolved during implementation

• GNU Make / POSIX shell: resolved via choco install make plus Git
  Bash with SHELL=bash overrides.
• Ninja on PATH: resolved via gha-setup-ninja and a ninja --version
  assertion step.
• Whitaker/Dylint on Windows: verified working — it installs and runs
  on windows-latest; the PowerShell wrapper is shimmed for Git Bash.
• make powershell-wrapper-validate: the target does not exist in the
  current Makefile, so it is not reachable and not added to this job.

cfg widening assessment (env.rs) — decision: keep the widening

DEFAULT_PATHEXT, default_pathext, and parse_pathext in
src/stdlib/which/env.rs are gated #[cfg(any(windows, test))] so the
Unix CI host could reach them (see #503). With a Windows job that
compiles and tests the #[cfg(windows)] arm directly, the widening was
reassessed:

• The original motivation — a CI host that never compiled Windows — is
  gone.
• But reverting to #[cfg(windows)] would drop Unix-host coverage of
  parse_pathext's pure string logic (normalization, de-duplication,
  fallback), which src/stdlib/which/pathext_tests.rs pins on every
  host. There is no equivalent Unix-side test for a Windows-only
  function.
• Decision: keep the widening. The pure string logic is exercised on
  both Linux and Windows, and a Windows-gated regression cannot hide
  from the Unix suite. Recorded in docs/developers-guide.md.

Introduce a Windows CI job that runs formatting, linting, and tests with a Windows toolchain while remaining non-blocking during rollout.	Add build-test-windows job configuration targeting windows-latest with continue-on-error enabled Define environment variables for Rust toolchain, build profile, Whitaker installer version, and cargo-nextest version Configure Git Bash as the default shell and override SHELL=bash in all make invocations Run make check-fmt, make lint-clippy, make lint-whitaker, and make test as the core steps of the job	.github/workflows/ci.yml
Provision and verify Windows-specific tooling required by the new CI job.	Install GNU Make via Chocolatey in the workflow steps Set up the pinned nightly Rust toolchain with rustfmt and clippy components and pass -D warnings -Zpolonius=next via setup-rust rustflags Install Ninja via gha-setup-ninja and assert its presence with a ninja --version step Install cargo-nextest via taiki-e/install-action using NEXTEST_VERSION from env and show rustc/cargo versions	.github/workflows/ci.yml
Integrate Whitaker linting in a non-blocking fashion on Windows, with caching for the installer.	Add an actions/cache step to cache whitaker-installer and cargo-binstall directories keyed by OS, architecture, and Whitaker installer version Install Whitaker using cargo-binstall if available or cargo install as a fallback, guarded by continue-on-error Run make lint-whitaker under continue-on-error so Clippy remains the primary Windows lint gate if Whitaker fails	.github/workflows/ci.yml

Poem

Run the Windows runner bright,
Compile the paths unseen by light.
Let lint and tests inspect the way,
While PATHEXT keeps its rules in play,
And platform gates stand firm today.

🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 17 | ❌ 3

❌ Failed checks (1 warning, 2 inconclusive)

Check name	Status	Explanation	Resolution
Testing (Unit And Behavioural)	⚠️ Warning	Flag the missing workflow contract: the PR adds build-test-windows, but no test changes or references cover it; existing workflow tests cover only build-test.	Add a behavioural integration test for ci.yml that validates the Windows runner, setup, warning flags, and check-fmt, lint, and test commands.
Developer Documentation	❓ Inconclusive	I have not yet inspected the pull-request diff or the developer guide.	Inspect the changed files and the guide to verify that new Windows tooling and design decisions are documented.
Testing (Compile-Time / Ui)	❓ Inconclusive	The diff contains Rust cfg and const compilation changes, but the repository’s test conventions and any language-specific equivalent are not yet verified.	Inspect existing compile-time test patterns and the CI test targets before deciding whether the required equivalent test is missing.

✅ Passed checks (17 passed)

Check name	Status	Explanation
Linked Issues check	✅ Passed	Accept the changes because they satisfy issue #518 by adding the Windows CI job, required checks, tooling, lint fixes, and PATHEXT assessment.
Out of Scope Changes check	✅ Passed	Accept the scope because the source, test, workflow, and documentation changes support the Windows CI objectives in issue #518.
Docstring Coverage	✅ Passed	Docstring coverage is 100.00% which is sufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%.
Testing (Overall)	✅ Passed	The diff adds CI and platform-gating fixes, not product behaviour; existing Windows-gated PATHEXT, quoting, and workspace tests run through the new make test job with substantive assertions.
User-Facing Documentation	✅ Passed	Treat this check as passed: the diff adds developer CI coverage and internal compile/lint fixes, with no user-facing behaviour change; no users-guide update is required.
Module-Level Documentation	✅ Passed	Keep this check passing: all 15 changed Rust files have clear //! purpose documentation, Windows-gated files are documented, and the PR adds no module declarations.
Testing (Property / Proof)	✅ Passed	The pull request adds CI and platform gates, plus behaviour-preserving refactors; it introduces no new input/state invariant or proof assumption requiring property or exhaustive proof testing.
Unit Architecture	✅ Passed	The diff adds platform gates, pure const helpers, an iterator-only refactor, and explicit Result/Error handling; no query gains writes, hidden fallibility, ambient dependency, or new mixed responsi...
Domain Architecture	✅ Passed	Keep the change: the diff adds CI, documentation, platform gates, and Windows-only lint fixes; it does not alter domain models or introduce transport, persistence, or infrastructure leakage.
Observability	✅ Passed	Treat this as passed: the diff adds CI and documentation, plus platform-gating and equivalent Rust refactors; it introduces no production operational behaviour requiring logs, metrics, or tracing.
Security And Privacy	✅ Passed	Record PASS: the diff adds only read-only Windows CI and platform-gated code; no secrets or sensitive data appear, no secret interpolation is added, and all new actions use full SHA pins.
Performance And Resource Use	✅ Passed	The PR adds no performance regression: the only collection change preserves the prior O(n) loop and allocations, while other Rust changes are cfg, const, imports, or trait-only changes.
Concurrency And State	✅ Passed	The visible PR changes add a Windows CI job and platform-gated imports/refactors; no new shared mutable state, async task, lock, transaction, or ordering protocol is introduced.
Architectural Complexity And Maintainability	✅ Passed	Accept the change: the diff adds a platform-specific CI job and cfg/import fixes, with no new module, dependency, framework, or generic abstraction; it reuses existing Make targets and actions.
Rust Compiler Lint Integrity	✅ Passed	The cumulative Rust diff adds no broad unused-code suppression or clone; it narrows cfg boundaries, uses one narrow expect for a required platform-mirror signature, and preserves ownership behaviour.
Title check	✅ Passed	The title accurately describes the Windows CI job and references issue #518 as required.
Description check	✅ Passed	The description explains the Windows CI job, its checks, tooling, scope, and related issue.

Keep a single nextest pin in the workflow

Adding this second NEXTEST_VERSION declaration breaks the documented local-install command: its sed expression now captures both matches, producing 0.9.133\n0.9.133, which Cargo cannot accept as one --version value. Move the pin to a single workflow-level declaration (or update every documented consumer to select one job) so contributors can continue installing exactly the CI version.

@leynos, keep this thread open. The latest commit does not resolve the finding.

Codegraph analysis shows two declarations:

• .github/workflows/ci.yml Line 23: build-test.env.NEXTEST_VERSION
• .github/workflows/ci.yml Line 143: build-test-windows.env.NEXTEST_VERSION

Both job steps consume their local value. AGENTS.md Line 280 still uses sed -n without selecting one job. It therefore emits two values. The local Cargo command remains invalid.

Use this AI agent prompt:

Fix the duplicate cargo-nextest version pin in leynos/netsuke PR `#562`.

Problem:
- `.github/workflows/ci.yml` declares `NEXTEST_VERSION: '0.9.133'` in both `jobs.build-test.env` and `jobs.build-test-windows.env`.
- `AGENTS.md` Lines 280-281 extracts every `NEXTEST_VERSION` match with:
  `sed -n "s/.*NEXTEST_VERSION: '\(.*\)'.*/\1/p" .github/workflows/ci.yml`
- The command now produces two newline-separated values. `cargo install --version "$NEXTEST_VERSION"` cannot accept that value.

Required changes:
1. Define `NEXTEST_VERSION` once at workflow scope in `.github/workflows/ci.yml`.
2. Remove both job-scoped `NEXTEST_VERSION` declarations.
3. Keep both cargo-nextest installation steps using `${{ env.NEXTEST_VERSION }}`.
4. Keep the documented `AGENTS.md` local-install command valid without job-specific parsing.
5. Preserve the existing pin value, `0.9.133`.
6. Add or update a workflow-contract test if this repository has coverage for workflow environment-variable contracts.

Validation:
- Verify that `.github/workflows/ci.yml` has exactly one `NEXTEST_VERSION:` declaration.
- Verify that both `build-test` and `build-test-windows` install `nextest@${{ env.NEXTEST_VERSION }}`.
- Run the documented `sed` command from `AGENTS.md` and verify that it outputs exactly `0.9.133` followed by one newline.
- Run the relevant workflow-contract tests, if available.

🧩 Analysis chain

🌐 Web query:

Does actions/checkout v7 persist the GitHub Actions token in local Git configuration by default, and does persist-credentials: false disable this?

💡 Result:

Yes, by default, actions/checkout (including version 7) persists the GitHub Actions token in the local Git configuration [1][2][3]. Specifically, the action configures the token (or SSH key) in the local repository's .git/config file, which allows subsequent steps in the workflow to execute authenticated Git commands without needing to manually re-configure credentials [1][4][5]. Setting persist-credentials: false effectively disables this behavior [1][2][5]. When this option is set to false, the action will not configure the token in the local Git configuration, thereby preventing subsequent steps from automatically using the checkout token for Git operations [5]. The token is also automatically removed during the post-job cleanup process when the default behavior is used [1][2][6].

@leynos, the finding remains open.

The latest revision, b8c1e99aa1367ff03210b324267af9955e564ade, does not set persist-credentials: false for the build-test-windows checkout at Line 151. The job then runs repository-controlled make commands. The existing kani-smoke checkout shows the required configuration at Line 225.

Use this AI agent prompt:

Inspect `.github/workflows/ci.yml` in the `build-test-windows` job.

Add a `with:` block to the `actions/checkout` step and set:

persist-credentials: false

Keep the change limited to the Windows checkout step. Do not change the checkout action pin, permissions, or other job behaviour. Validate the workflow YAML structure after the edit.

@leynos: The original workflow-contract warning is addressed in the PR source.

tests/workflow_contracts/ci_lint_test.py now validates:

• build-test-windows uses windows-latest.
• The job uses Git Bash.
• Setup Rust uses -D warnings -Zpolonius=next.
• The job runs check-fmt, Clippy, Whitaker, and tests.
• Neither the job nor its steps set continue-on-error: true.

However, the PR is not yet resolved. Head commit 7352c2ae341542ae1b3d6eb4a3e1adb316fbc550 has unresolved failures:

1. build-test fails because tests/workflow_ci.rs::behavioural_ci_workflow_installs_pinned_cargo_nextest still expects NEXTEST_VERSION in jobs.build-test.env. The PR moved this value to workflow-level env.
2. build-test-windows fails three configuration-discovery tests. The logs show Windows short-path and long-path forms, plus a duplicate project layer:
   • existing_project_scope_layer_is_not_appended_twice
   • normalization_failure_does_not_fail_discovery
   • collect_diag_file_layers_uses_injected_explicit_config
3. Both CI jobs emit a warning because components is not a supported input of the pinned setup-rust action.
4. CodeScene Code Coverage (main) timed out. Its result says: “No valid coverage report found in the build pipeline”.

Apply this agent prompt:

Fix all unresolved CI failures and warnings on leynos/netsuke PR `#562`.

Do not suppress failures or warnings. Do not add `continue-on-error`. Keep the Windows job as a blocking merge gate.

Scope:
- Update tests and production code that cause the current CI failures.
- Update `.github/workflows/ci.yml` only as needed to remove invalid workflow configuration and restore coverage reporting.
- Do not revert the Windows CI job or its workflow-contract tests.
- Do not change unrelated behaviour.

Current failures:

1. Linux `build-test`
   Failing test:
   - `tests/workflow_ci.rs::behavioural_ci_workflow_installs_pinned_cargo_nextest`

   Cause:
   - `.github/workflows/ci.yml` moved `NEXTEST_VERSION` from `jobs.build-test.env` to the workflow-level `env`.
   - The Rust workflow-contract test still reads only `jobs.build-test.env`.

   Required work:
   - Update `tests/workflow_ci.rs` to validate the workflow-level `env.NEXTEST_VERSION`.
   - Assert that both `build-test` and `build-test-windows` install cargo-nextest through `nextest@${{ env.NEXTEST_VERSION }}`.
   - Assert that neither job duplicates `NEXTEST_VERSION` at job scope.
   - Preserve exact-version validation.

2. Windows `build-test-windows`
   Failing tests:
   - `cli::discovery::layer_tests::existing_project_scope_layer_is_not_appended_twice`
   - `cli::discovery::layer_tests::normalization_failure_does_not_fail_discovery`
   - `cli::discovery::tests::collect_diag_file_layers_uses_injected_explicit_config`

   Evidence:
   - Windows logs show the same file in short-path and long-path forms.
   - The logs show duplicate project layers for one `project/.netsuke.toml` file.

   Required work:
   - Inspect the configuration-discovery path comparison and de-duplication logic.
   - Normalize path identity before comparing discovered project configuration paths, injected explicit configuration paths, and existing merge-layer paths.
   - Preserve correct behaviour on Unix.
   - Add or update tests that reproduce Windows-equivalent alternate path spellings.
   - Ensure one physical configuration file cannot produce two merge layers.
   - Ensure an injected explicit configuration path is recognized after Windows path normalization.

3. Unsupported `setup-rust` input warning
   Warning:
   - `Unexpected input(s) 'components'`

   Required work:
   - Remove or replace the unsupported `components` input in every affected `setup-rust` invocation.
   - Ensure `rustfmt` and `clippy` remain installed before `check-fmt` and `lint-clippy` run.
   - Use a supported action interface or explicit Rustup component installation.
   - Add or update workflow-contract coverage for the required component-installation behaviour.

4. CodeScene coverage timeout
   Failure:
   - `CodeScene Code Coverage (main)` reports: `No valid coverage report found in the build pipeline`.

   Required work:
   - First fix the blocking test failures above.
   - Then verify that the CI coverage step produces the configured coverage report and that CodeScene receives it.
   - If the report path, report format, upload step, or ordering is invalid, fix it.
   - Do not make coverage informational or remove the coverage gate.
   - Add or update a workflow contract test if the coverage-report wiring can regress.

Validation:
- Run the focused Rust workflow-contract tests.
- Run the Python workflow-contract suite, including `tests/workflow_contracts/ci_lint_test.py`.
- Run the affected configuration-discovery tests on Windows.
- Run the complete Linux and Windows CI jobs.
- Confirm that no `Unexpected input(s) 'components'` warning remains.
- Confirm that CodeScene receives a valid coverage report.
- Report every remaining failure or warning.
