A Cloud proof can fail before its runner writes any logs, leaving CI with only Cloud RelayFlow finished with status failed. The latest #1665 run followed that path: its Cloud status carried a Relaycast 503 during workspace-key repair, but the dispatcher discarded the error and uploaded an empty log.

Preserve the terminal status's failure phase, code, message, cause chain, and sandbox/run identity in both CI output and the uploaded log. Output is allowlisted, redacted, and bounded to valid UTF-8 JSON within 32 KiB. The dispatcher remains dependency-free and uses only trusted base code; failures still fail the proof. This extracts the reviewed diagnostic implementation from #1665 so that PR does not have to land before its own startup failures become readable.

Validation: all 22 trusted-dispatcher tests pass, including nested payloads, credential redaction, byte bounds, and import before npm install. The full fixture run passes 102 tests with six skips and one process-timeout fixture failure; that same failure reproduces on untouched main on this host (descendantPid remains zero within its 100 ms startup budget). Formatting and diff checks pass.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The cloud runner retains terminal status payloads, extracts bounded diagnostics, redacts declared and credential-shaped secrets, and emits sanitized evidence with retrieved logs. Tests cover nested payloads, escaping, UTF-8 limits, fallback output, and standalone ESM loading.

Changes

Cloud terminal diagnostics

Layer / File(s) Summary
Diagnostic extraction and sanitization
scripts/pr-proof/run-cloud.mjs, tests/fixtures/pr-proof-contract.test.ts
Adds terminalStatusDiagnostic with nested payload normalization, lifecycle field selection, credential redaction, declared-secret replacement, and UTF-8-safe 32 KiB output. Tests cover credential formats, escaping, short secrets, nested fields, fallback markers, and standalone ESM loading.
Polling and diagnostic output
scripts/pr-proof/run-cloud.mjs
Retains the terminal status payload during polling and appends its sanitized diagnostic to the cloud log and stderr.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to f2f56

Some terminal startup failures can still omit useful failure details and run or sandbox identity from CI diagnostics. This should be corrected before merge to meet the stated diagnostic-preservation behavior.

Poem

A rabbit checks each line,
Secrets hide beneath the moon,
Status hops through logs,
UTF-8 stays inside its fence,
Tests guard the burrow.

Two review findings from cubic on #1703:

1. statusPayloadFrom() returned the first candidate ([payload, payload.run,
   payload.workflowRun]) that had its own `.status` string, even when that
   candidate lacked the detailed `failure` (phase/code/message/causeChain)
   that only a different candidate carried. A response that duplicates
   `status` at the wrapper level while nesting the real failure detail under
   `run`/`workflowRun` would silently lose that detail — undermining this
   PR's whole point. Now merges in whichever candidate actually has a
   `failure` object when the chosen primary lacks one, without overriding a
   failure the primary already has.

2. redactTerminalDiagnostic()'s declared-secret pass only recognized FULL
   containment of a secret inside a live-credential match
   (`start >= range.start && end <= range.end`). A declared secret that
   starts BEFORE a credential and ends partway through it fell through to
   redacting only the secret's own span, stripping the credential's
   recognizable prefix while leaving its tail intact — the tail then no
   longer matches the whole-credential regex pass and leaks. Any overlap
   (full or partial) now redacts the credential's FULL span.

Verified both fixes are load-bearing: reverted just run-cloud.mjs and
confirmed the two new tests fail exactly as expected before the fix,
then confirmed all 106 tests (3 new) pass with the fix restored.

Addressed both cubic findings in f2f5673:

  1. statusPayloadFrom now merges in whichever candidate carries a failure object when the chosen primary (first candidate with its own .status) lacks one, instead of dropping nested detail whenever the wrapper duplicates status.
  2. redactTerminalDiagnostic now treats any overlap (not just full containment) between a declared secret and a live-credential match as requiring the credential's full span to be redacted, so a partial-overlap secret can no longer strip a credential's prefix while leaving its tail unredacted.

Verified both are load-bearing: reverted just the fix and confirmed the new tests fail exactly as expected, then confirmed all 106 tests (3 new) pass with it restored.

Retain nested diagnostic fields when wrapper fields are unusable.

If the wrapper provides status with failure: null, statusPayloadFrom treats failure as present and skips the nested failure. It also does not merge nested runId or sandboxId. Normalize each allowlisted field independently, with wrapper values taking precedence only when usable. Add a fixture for this response shape.
