fix(cli): swallow posthog shutdown-timeout rejection - #146
Conversation
@posthog/core rejects _shutdown when flush exceeds the timeout; the unhandled rejection was re-captured by exception autocapture (daily error-tracking noise) and skipped the final process.exit. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

The PR's claim is that the CLI always reaches process.exit. The .catch on _shutdown removes the one rejection source we know about, but the call site still made the exit conditional on shutdownTelemetryWithTimeout resolving — any future throw inside it skips process.exit and hangs the CLI on the event loop. Make the exit unconditional. Also pin the late-rejection semantics: Promise.race subscribes to both inputs, so a rejection arriving after the local timer wins is already handled. The test documents that so a refactor away from Promise.race can't quietly reintroduce an unhandled rejection. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Fix is correct and I've pushed 9b2533f to close the other half of it. Confirmed the bug against But the caller still let telemetry decide whether the process exits. One correction to my own first read, since it shaped a test in this diff. I thought a rejection landing after the local timer won the race would escape as an unhandled rejection, and I wrote a test asserting that. Proving it by temporarily reverting the Merge-order note: #148 fixes the same function differently, wrapping the race in an inner |

CI red here is not this PR. Every open PR is failing the same single assertion: That test pins hardcoded LiteLLM dollar amounts for the GPT-5.6 family, and LiteLLM repriced #150 replaces the pinned rates with the invariant (every model resolves to a non-zero price, day total equals the sum of the breakdown). Merge that first and this should go green on a re-run. |

Align the test comment with the test values.
The test uses a 1 ms local timeout and a mocked 20 ms rejection. The comment says both timeouts are 150 ms, so it does not describe the behavior under test. Update the comment.

Summary
PostHog error tracking shows a recurring production error from the current CLI (v0.1.30):
Timeout while shutting down PostHog. Some events may not have been sent.— 6 occurrences / 6 users in the last weeks, firing daily.Root cause
@posthog/corerejects_shutdown(timeoutMs)with that message when the flush exceeds the timeout.shutdownTelemetryWithTimeoutraced that against its own 150 ms resolve timer — same duration, so whenever posthog's rejection fired first it propagated out ofmain().finally(...), became an unhandled rejection that (a)enableExceptionAutocapturere-reported to PostHog as a $exception, and (b) skipped the intendedprocess.exit(exitCode), leaving the exit path to the unhandled-rejection handler.Fix
Attach a
.catch(() => {})to the_shutdownpromise: a slow or failed telemetry flush is expected and must be silent. Failing repro test added first (mocked_shutdownrejection →shutdownTelemetryWithTimeoutmust resolve), then the fix.Other issues reviewed (no code change needed)
Session expired or invalid…(8 occurrences, 1 user, daily 04:00 UTC) and onefetch failed: all from a stale v0.1.23 scheduled auto-push install. Current CLI already reports push failures asusage_push_failedevents with sliding token refresh (see docs/DECISIONS.md); noise stops when that install updates.Verification
