Summary

  • Add device readiness checks that identify blockers before app interactions and journeys run.
  • Integrate readiness details with observe, interact, and manage tool responses, with platform evidence and documentation.
  • Add unit and Android smoke coverage for readiness behavior.

Testing

  • Unit tests added for readiness checks and journey integration.
  • Android device smoke test added; execution status not provided.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Launch, interaction, and readiness results include timestamped device-readiness evidence, such as awake, asleep, locked, or unsupported states.
    • Readiness waits account for known device blockers and can resume after the device becomes ready; unknown or unsupported signals are reported explicitly.
    • Managed debugger pauses are reported as blockers, and readiness waits fail while a pause prevents input.
    • Launch success indicates dispatch, not app visibility or input readiness. No automatic wake or unlock is performed.
  • Documentation

    • Updated user and tool documentation with readiness behavior and platform limitations.

Walkthrough

The change adds timestamped device-readiness evidence for Android and iOS. Readiness checks and UI waits account for known device blockers. Launch and interaction results include readiness evidence separately from dispatch outcomes. The change also removes discarded iOS trace files after recorder-stop failure when recorder exit is confirmed.

Changes: Device readiness

Layer / File(s) Summary
Readiness contract and device probes
src/contracts/device-readiness.ts, src/observe/device-readiness.ts, docs/specs/033-device-readiness-blockers/*, test/unit/observe/device-readiness.test.ts
Adds the DeviceReadiness contract and Android and iOS observation paths. Probes report classified states, unknown or unsupported signals, blockers, timestamped evidence, and limitations.
Readiness tracking and waits
src/observe/readiness.ts, src/observe/readiness-service.ts, src/interact/waits/*, test/unit/server/readiness.test.ts, test/unit/observe/readiness-retained-blockers.test.ts, docs/tools/observe.md
The tracker combines UI and device readiness and retains blocker evidence across inconclusive probes. Readiness checks and UI waits avoid UI sampling while input is blocked and retry within existing wait budgets.
Readiness in tool results
src/server/handlers/*, src/server/tool-definitions.ts, src/types.ts, src/utils/resolve-device.ts, test/fixtures/contracts/tool-definitions.json, docs/tools/{interact,manage}.md, README.md, docs/CHANGELOG.md
Launch, interaction, journey, and debugger-pause results include device-readiness data. Compact action results preserve the field, while dispatch outcomes remain separate. Tool descriptions and documentation describe the evidence and limitations.
Readiness verification and evidence
test/device/automated/observe/*, test/device/automated/debugger/*, test/unit/observe/*, test/unit/server/*, test/unit/interact/*, docs/specs/033-device-readiness-blockers/*
Tests cover probing, blockers, recovery, targeting, debugger pauses, and wait behavior. Documentation records Android and iOS evidence, verification results, and limits.
Trace cleanup after recorder stop
src/observe/ios-trace/sessions.ts, test/unit/observe/ios-trace-sessions.test.ts, docs/specs/031-ios-system-traces/plan.md, docs/CHANGELOG.md
Finalization removes discarded recording files after recorder-stop failure only when recorder exit is confirmed. It preserves the failure and keeps the directory when the recorder may still be live.

Explanation

The title "Add device readiness blockers to mobile debugging tools" matches the main change in the changeset. The PR adds a device_readiness result covering wakefulness, lock state, input readiness, and blockers. It wires this data into observe, interact, and manage tool responses, and it documents and tests the behavior. The title is concise, specific, and free of file lists or vague terms.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 2.94% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 34 functions across 29 files. (4 skipped: 4 unsupported.)

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Inline comments:
Review comments at @src/interact/waits/ui-change-wait.ts:
- Line 33: Update the device-readiness blocker branch in the UI-change wait to
clear the current change candidate and reset s.since whenever requireReady
causes sampling to be skipped. Preserve the existing behavior of returning null
for the blocked sample, and ensure time spent blocked cannot count toward
stability after recovery.

Review comments at @src/observe/readiness.ts:
- Line 20: Update the device readiness assignment in observeDevice so an
inconclusive probe does not replace the last blocked state: retain its blocker
evidence and the probe-failure limitation for the wait’s deadline result. Ensure
expiry returns READINESS_TIMEOUT with that last evidence, without reporting the
device as clear.

Review comments at @src/server/handlers/action-execution.ts:
- Line 58: For ordinary unguarded tap and swipe actions, propagate the device
selected by the input handler into the action result or execution context before
the readiness check. Update the flow around observeDeviceReadiness so it
receives that resolved target rather than undefined, while preserving existing
device selection for guarded actions.

Review comments at
@test/device/automated/observe/device-readiness.android.smoke.ts:
- Around line 60-65: Update the cleanup block around the restore-guarded adb
calls so each restoration step is attempted even if an earlier `adb` call fails.
Ensure `client.close()` runs in a nested `finally`, then report any collected
cleanup failures after all cleanup attempts.
