Summary

  • Stop recursively deleting stale staging paths during an update: the sweep now reports leftovers instead of removing them. A marker file proves provenance only while this process owns the fresh path — after another local process could have replaced it, neither the marker nor the inspected pathname is safe to delete by.
  • Stale marked stages are reported with a "delete it by hand once no OpenCodex process is running from it" message; unmarked neighbours (npm''s rename-aside, links) stay reported-and-untouched as before.
  • Fresh uniquely named stages step around leftovers, so the update never blocks on them — the only cost is disk space.

Verification

  • bun test tests/update/ — 255 pass / 19 skip / 0 fail.

Checklist

  • Scope stays focused and avoids unrelated cleanup.
  • Docs or release notes were updated when needed.
  • Security-sensitive changes were reviewed for secrets, auth, and unsafe defaults.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Updates no longer automatically delete leftover staging directories. Older owned directories are reported for manual deletion; cleanup failures for the current update’s staging directory include the same guidance.
    • Leftover directories do not block later updates, but they use disk space and enough may prevent a future update. Delete a reported directory only when no OpenCodex process is running from it. Confirm that directories without an ownership marker belong to OpenCodex before deleting them.
  • Documentation
    • Updated troubleshooting guidance to explain how leftover staging folders are reported and when they can be deleted.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The update sweep no longer deletes stale owned staging directories. It reports them with code "ESTALE" and advises manual deletion when no OpenCodex process runs from them. The return type, tests, and documentation reflect this behavior.

The sweep reports stale owned stages instead of removing them. Its return type no longer includes removed. Logs advise manual deletion after confirming no OpenCodex process runs from a stage. The test expects the stale stage to remain, and the documentation describes reporting-only behavior.

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to f9c60

Later updates now leave stale staging folders in place and tell users to delete them by hand, which is the intended safer behavior. One log message can wrongly blame a file in use when cleanup fails for a permission or other filesystem reason. That could send users looking for running processes that are not the cause. This is a small wording fix and does not block the update itself.

이 풀리퀘스트는 바탕이 dev예요. 업데이트가 예전에 만들어 둔 임시 설치 폴더를, 다음 업데이트 때 자동으로 지우지 않게 바꿔요.

임시 폴더는 패키지 옆에 .ocx-staging-시간으로 생겨요. 안에는 .ocx-update-owner.json 표시가 있어요. 예전에는 그 표시가 있고 만든 지 30분이 지난 폴더를 다음 업데이트가 통째로 지웠어요. 지금은 지우지 않고, 콘솔에 손으로 지우라는 말만 남겨요. 표시 파일은 같은 컴퓨터를 쓰는 다른 프로그램도 만들 수 있어요. 폴더 이름을 확인한 뒤에 그 자리가 링크로 바뀌면, 지우기가 링크가 가리키는 다른 곳을 지울 수 있어요. 그래서 나중에 온 업데이트는 그 이름을 보고 지우지 않아요. 지금 이 업데이트가 방금 만든 폴더는 실패하면 여전히 자기가 지워요. 새 폴더 이름은 매번 달라서, 옛 폴더가 남아도 다음 업데이트는 막히지 않아요. 남는 건 디스크 공간이에요. types.ts와 config.ts는 안 건드려요. 같은 내용의 다른 열린 글은 없어요.

라인 - src/update/transactional-install.mjs 421행 — 이번 업데이트가 자기 임시 폴더를 못 지우면 "다음 업데이트가 지운다"고 말해요. 283행부터는 다음 업데이트가 그 폴더를 안 지워요. 30분이 지나면 "손으로 지우라"는 로그만 나와요.

라인 - docs-site/src/content/docs/troubleshooting/update-failed.md 61행, 65–66행 — 사용자 안내에는 아직 "2.64.0 이후 업데이터가 다음 업데이트에서 자기 폴더를 지운다", "표시가 있고 30분이 지난 폴더만 지운다"고 적혀 있어요. 이번 코드와 반대예요. structure/ops/service-and-sidecars.md만 고쳤어요.

라인 - src/update/transactional-install.mjs 265행, 291행 — removed 목록에 넣는 곳이 없어졌어요. "지웠다"는 로그는 더 이상 안 나와요. 395행 주석도 아직 "먼저 지운다"고 적혀 있어요.

메인테이너의 판단이 필요한 지점

임시 폴더가 쌓이는 걸 받아도 되는지 정해 주세요. 업데이트가 실패하고 파일이 잠겨 있으면 그 폴더는 계속 남아요. 자동 삭제를 아예 끄는 쪽이 맞는지, 확인한 그 폴더만 잡고 지우는 더 좁은 방법을 남길지도 정해 주세요.

너의 추천

지우기를 멈추는 방향은 맞아요. 바탕 dev도 맞아요. 닫을 중복 글은 없어요.

넣기 전에 421행 로그를 "다음에도 안 지운다. 쓰는 프로세스가 없으면 손으로 지우라"로 고치고, update-failed.md의 자동 삭제 문장도 같이 고치는 게 좋아요. removed 로그와 395행 주석은 같은 수정에서 빼도 돼요.

- Line 61: Update the `.ocx-staging-<timestamp>` troubleshooting entry so an
absent `.ocx-update-owner.json` marker is described as an unverified origin, not
as evidence that the stage came from an older updater. Tell users to confirm the
stage belongs to OpenCodex before deleting it, and retain the instruction to
ensure no process is running from it.
- Around line 65-67: Update the troubleshooting guidance around the statement
that leftover folders do not block updates: qualify that they do not block by
pathname because each attempt uses a new staging folder, but retained contents
can exhaust disk space and cause staging to fail.

Addressed in 082a6b5c5b2:

  • transactional-install.mjs discardStage log no longer claims the next update removes a locked stage — it now says to delete it by hand once no OpenCodex process runs from it.
  • The "cleared or stepped around" comment now states leftovers are only reported.
  • The dead removed list and its log line were dropped from sweepUpdateLeftovers and the .d.mts declaration.
  • update-failed.md was already aligned in d2d1fc7498b (reported-but-left-in-place wording) — the review snapshot predates that commit.

bun test tests/update/update-transactional-leftovers.test.ts: 9 pass.

luvs01 and others added 5 commits September 25, 2026 05:38
The page still claimed a later update removes owned staging folders.
The install now reports marked stages older than half an hour as ESTALE
and leaves them in place, so the table and the closing note tell the
user to delete a leftover by hand only after confirming nothing runs
from it.
The sweep no longer deletes anything, so the discardStage message must not promise the next update removes a locked stage, and the result type drops a list nothing fills.

리뷰 반영했습니다 (f9c60be). 421행 로그가 이제 "later updates will not remove it either — delete it by hand once no OpenCodex process is running from it"라고 안내해 다음 업데이트도 자동 삭제하지 않음을 명시합니다. update-failed.md는 5e3d2485a5에서 이미 "leftover staging folders in place during later updates"로 정리돼 있어 자동 삭제 문장이 남아 있지 않습니다.

Reviewed exact head 2e6bd9ef1d4534f5f3dc9c3c37e47c8f2b895973. The no-delete sweep is the right boundary: a stale path plus marker cannot remain proof of ownership across the check/use window, while cleanup of the current updater-owned staging root remains intact. Focused bounded tests passed: update-transactional-leftovers and update-transactional (19/19) under CPUQuota=200%, MemoryMax=4G, swap disabled.
