fix: Recover the shell before the next command - #18
Conversation
A timed-out or aborted command finishes resync before the next exec writes. Host-key rejection and output or pager caps use their own error codes. Prompts match a whole line, CR overwrites, and idle bytes are dropped.
Record hostkey and limit, whole-line prompts, resync, and the ignored idle buffer in the changelog, README, usage guide, and security notes.

🛠 Guidelines to remediate hardcoded secrets
- Understand the implications of revoking this secret by investigating where it is used in your code.
- Replace and store your secret safely. Learn here the best practices.
- Revoke and rotate this secret.
- If possible, rewrite git history. Rewriting git history is not a trivial act. You might completely break other contributing developers' workflow and you risk accidentally deleting legitimate data.
To avoid such incidents in the future consider
- following these best practices for managing and storing secrets including API keys and other credentials
- install secret detection on pre-commit to catch secret before it leaves your machine and ease remediation.
🦉 GitGuardian detects secrets in your source code to help developers and security teams secure the modern development process. You are seeing this because you or someone else with access to this repository has authorized GitGuardian to scan your pull request.

Navigate logical layers of code changes, visualize relationships, and explore their blast radius. 📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe SSH client now validates commands and fingerprints, classifies host-key and output-limit errors, confirms prompt identity, and processes terminal output and pager markers. Connection aborts are tracked per caller, disconnect waits for client shutdown, and command timeout or abort starts shell resynchronization. ChangesSSH client behavior

136-141: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low valueDo not create an ssh2 client for an already-aborted caller.
On this path,
createAttempt()calls#clientFactory()and thenteardown()ends that client. The client never connects. Each already-abortedconnect()still builds a realClientand schedules a 1s close timer, which does no useful work. Reject before you create the attempt. The comment says the attempt "still has to be ended", but that statement holds only because the code created the attempt first.♻️ Proposed fix
if (signal?.aborted) { - // The caller never reaches connect(), but the attempt still has to be ended. - const attempt = this.createAttempt(); - this.teardown(attempt); return Promise.reject(new SshClientError('closed', 'aborted')); }🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

- Around line 162-178: Update stripFinalPrompt to compare promptLine with the
final line after carriage-return overwrites are applied, removing the prompt
when they match. Keep the original text unchanged for other lines so raw
carriage returns remain available to matchWrapped.
Review comments at @src/shell-io.ts:
- Around line 167-177: Update runCommand to check signal?.aborted again after
awaiting resyncing and validating resyncFailed or detached, before beginning the
command wait or writing to the stream. Throw the existing closed/aborted
SshClientError so a command cancelled during resync is not sent to the device.
- Around line 516-527: Update settleResync so recovery never sends a carriage
return to an unknown non-prompt line, which could accept a pending confirmation;
use a non-confirming recovery action such as sending INTERRUPT again, sending
KILL_LINE without carriage return, or calling markResyncFailed(). Update the
corresponding test in shell-io-extras.test.ts to match the chosen behavior.

Compare the last display line after carriage-return overwrite before removing the prompt. A command aborted while resync is still running is rejected before it is written.
