fix(cli): regenerate baselines from pre-subtraction diagnostics - #508
Conversation
With `baseline = "..."` in ry.toml, `ry check --write-baseline` loaded and subtracted the configured baseline before overwriting the file, so regenerating on an unchanged project wrote `"entries": []` and every accepted finding reappeared on the next plain check -- a silent wipe whose regeneration run still exited 0. The clap conflict only covers the `--baseline` spelling; the configured baseline arrives through `Config::merge_cli`. Skip loading (and therefore subtracting) the configured baseline during regeneration, mirroring the clap conflict at the config level. The snapshot still receives every policy filter a plain check applies (suppression comments, severity filter, path-based confidence demotion, --min-confidence), so genuinely fixed findings drop out while suppressed or below-threshold ones never enter. Closes #484

crates/ry-cli/src/check.rs—run_checknow skips loading the configuredbaselineentirely when--write-baselineis passed, so regeneration snapshots the pre-subtraction, policy-filtered diagnostics instead of wiping accepted findings on an unchanged project (#484). This mirrors the clapconflicts_with = "baseline"guard (main.rs:138) at the config level; sincewrite_baselineis CLI-only,baseline_from_cliis unreachable in the write path and theErr => returnarm stays reachable for plain--baselineruns.crates/ry-cli/tests/config_e2e.rs— three new e2e tests covering the issue's full requested matrix: double-regeneration stability on an unchanged project (including exit-code 1 on both runs), fixed-finding drop-out plus new-finding entry, and count-based subtraction against the regenerated file (third occurrence leaves exactly one diagnostic).docs/configuration.md— the regeneration paragraph now states the configuredbaselineis neither loaded nor subtracted, matching the implementation.CHANGELOG.md—### Fixedentry in the plain-prose sibling style, citing #484.
Verified beyond reading: all three tests pass on the head; reverting only check.rs to base makes write_baseline_with_configured_baseline_is_stable_across_regeneration fail with exactly the issue's symptom (second regeneration writes "entries": []), so the regression test genuinely pins the fix; cargo fmt --check and clippy on ry-cli are clean. The snapshot source (result.diagnostics at check.rs:270) sits after suppression, severity filtering, path demotion, subtraction, and --min-confidence, and write_baseline_file rebuilds a fresh Baseline from the passed diagnostics — so suppressed/below-threshold findings never enter the file and nothing stale is merged. The LSP's baseline consumption (ry-lsp/src/backend.rs) has no write path and is unaffected.

State the --exit-zero exception.
When --exit-zero is enabled, regeneration reports and writes findings but exits successfully. Change “fails on” to state that regeneration fails unless --exit-zero is enabled.

The delta since the prior pullfrog review is a single merge commit syncing origin/main (through 210c9db, which cut 0.11.0 and landed #500/#501/#503/#504) into the branch — the fix's code hunks in check.rs, the three e2e tests, and the docs/configuration.md paragraph are unchanged from the reviewed 331f6e6.
- Merged main into the branch, pulling in the
0.11.0release plus the #485 missing-input, #482 return-divergence, and #474 BOM changes; none of them touch the baseline load/subtract/write path this PR guards (the #485 early abort for missing inputs and the discovery-read-error accounting both run before and independently ofwrite_baseline). - Re-homed the
#484CHANGELOG entry from the top of the Unreleased### Fixedlist to its end, directly above the newly dated## [0.11.0] - 2026-09-16heading — the merge-conflict resolution keeps it in Unreleased, which is correct since the fix ships after0.11.0.
Verified beyond reading: the merged CHANGELOG matches main@210c9db's Unreleased section exactly, with the #484 entry appended and nothing dropped or duplicated; main's #485 e2e tests share this PR's config_e2e.rs and merged cleanly alongside the new baseline tests. On the merged head, the full config_e2e target passes (52/52, including write_baseline_with_configured_baseline_is_stable_across_regeneration and the other two), and cargo fmt -p ry-cli --all --check plus cargo clippy -p ry-cli --all-targets -- -D warnings are clean.

Summary
With
baseline = "ry-baseline.json"in ry.toml,ry check --write-baseline ry-baseline.json .loaded and subtracted the configured baseline before overwriting the file. On an unchanged project the non-empty baseline became empty ("entries": []) and every accepted finding reappeared on the next plain check — a silent wipe whose regeneration run still exited 0. The clap guard only covers the CLI spelling (--write-baselineconflicts_with--baseline); the configured baseline arrives throughConfig::merge_cliand was not conflicted.The fix mirrors the clap conflict at the config level: when
--write-baselineis passed, the configured baseline is neither loaded nor subtracted, so the snapshot is written from the pre-subtraction, policy-filtered diagnostics.run_check_once's pipeline is untouched — only the baseline load inrun_checkis skipped, so:error/warn/ignore), path-based confidence demotion, and--min-confidenceall apply to the snapshot exactly as they apply to what a plain check reports (a suppressed or below-threshold finding never enters the baseline);write_baseline_filebuilds a freshBaselinefrom the current diagnostics — nothing stale is merged;--write-baselinepath has always had.Test plan
