Closes #9346.

Bundle-only regressions have broken Claude Code help output while small fixtures stayed green. Add a run-cc-parity opt-in workflow that compiles the exact standalone Claude Code 2.1.112 bundle and requires native --help and --version to exit zero with byte-identical stdout to checked-in Node goldens.

The workflow verifies both npm archive and bundle identities, builds the compiler and coherent Wasm-enabled runtime/extension archives, disables compile caches and auto-optimization, and runs each command with a scratch HOME and network denied by macOS Seatbelt. Results include logs, stdout/stderr, hashes, exit codes, and timings. The gate starts non-required, has no push/schedule trigger, and changes no branch protection. No version bump.

Validation:

  • 11 harness tests, including live network denial, byte mismatch, nonzero exit with matching stdout, timeouts, archive/source integrity, and rejection of stale binaries after a failed compile.
  • Actionlint and seven executions of the actual workflow filter (including a large PR file list and API failure).
  • Fresh npm download and sandboxed Node oracle: help 9,175 bytes; version 22 bytes.
  • scripts/pre-tag-check.sh --quick and docs lint passed.
  • Full pinned bundle native compilation passed in 57m25s. Offline native help passed in 4.067s (9,175 bytes); version passed in 0.153s (22 bytes), both byte-identical to the Node goldens and rc=0.
  • scripts/test_affected_crates.sh --base origin/main: runtime 3,137 passed / 4 ignored; CLI 1,083 passed / 1 pre-existing failure (PERRY_CONCAT_SITE_CACHE missing from the cache-input audit, addressed separately in fix(cache): register concat switch and explain codegen inputs #9748). The canonical runner stops at that CLI failure.

The job uses one standard macos-15-intel runner (14 GB RAM) plus a cheap relevance filter, with a 90-minute total cap (75 minutes for compilation). Toolchain setup can exceed the issue's warm-build estimate on a cold cache. Local native validation used macOS arm64 with five LLVM workers; CI uses four workers on Intel and remains to be measured on that hosted runner. Maintainers can create/apply the run-cc-parity label or use workflow dispatch to request a hosted run.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added an opt-in Claude Code bundle parity check for validating native --help and --version output against trusted reference results.
    • The check can be enabled for relevant pull requests or started manually, and reports diagnostic logs when validation fails.
  • Documentation

    • Added guidance covering the parity check, local usage, CI behavior, resource requirements, and reference-output maintenance.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for archive integrity, build failures, environment restrictions, output mismatches, timeouts, and tampered reference data.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds an opt-in macOS CI gate that compiles pinned Claude Code 2.1.112 with Perry and compares native --help and --version output with checked-in golden bytes. It adds the gate script, fixtures, tests, workflow wiring, and documentation.

Changes

Claude Code parity gate

Layer / File(s) Summary
Bundle preparation and native checks
scripts/cc_parity_gate.py
Verifies the pinned archive and bundle, builds the Perry toolchain, compiles a native executable, isolates execution, denies network access, and compares command output with golden files.
Parity corpus and validation
tests/cc-parity/*, tests/test_cc_parity_gate.py
Adds the pinned package manifest, help and version outputs, and tests for integrity checks, stale binaries, environment isolation, Mach-O validation, sandboxing, failures, and timeouts.
Opt-in workflow wiring
.github/workflows/cc-parity.yml
Adds relevant-change filtering, macOS execution, toolchain setup, compilation, parity checks, caching, timeouts, and artifact uploads.
CI and local-use documentation
changelog.d/9793-cc-parity-gate.md, docs/src/SUMMARY.md, docs/src/testing/cc-parity.md, docs/src/testing/ci-tiers.md
Documents the opt-in label, workflow behavior, local commands, validation scope, artifacts, and fixture refresh process.

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

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 49048

The new parity gate fails safely on this timeout race, but a narrowly timed-out run may not retain its expected diagnostic report, making CI failures harder to investigate.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Handle the timeout cleanup race.

If the child exits after process.wait() raises TimeoutExpired but before Line 87 calls os.killpg, os.killpg raises ProcessLookupError. run_logged then does not return a result, so the command exits without its JSON report. Ignore ProcessLookupError and always wait for the process.

Proposed fix
-            os.killpg(process.pid, signal.SIGKILL)
+            try:
+                os.killpg(process.pid, signal.SIGKILL)
+            except ProcessLookupError:
+                pass
             process.wait()
