perf(coding-agent): fast root help; fix(natives): Windows AVX2 probe + persisted verdicts - #895
Conversation
… loading every command veyyon --help loaded all 38 command modules; launch alone pulled the whole runtime graph (~0.8s of module load) just to print its flag table. The CLI runner now renders the listing straight from summary metadata on the registry, loading only the hidden default command, and launch imports runRootCommand inside run(). Any entry without a summary falls back to the full table rather than rendering an incomplete listing; a committed test mirrors every summary against its class statics so drift or a new unsummarized command fails. Measured on a Windows host, warm cache: --help 1.2s -> 0.13s.
The win32 probe ran [System.Runtime.Intrinsics.X86.Avx2]::IsSupported through powershell.exe, but stock PowerShell 5.1 runs .NET Framework, which has no such type: every AVX2-capable machine without PowerShell 7 answered unknown and silently ran the slower baseline addon. The chain now probes pwsh.exe first, falls through to a child-process trial load of the modern addon when no shell can answer — the child dying on an illegal instruction is ground truth, a catchable load failure is not — and persists only genuine verdicts to <nativesDir>/host-variant.json, keyed by platform and arch, so warm launches skip the probe entirely.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR improves startup time and Windows native-addon selection, but an empty compiled-host cache can still be evaluated before the modern addon is available, causing the slower baseline build to be selected instead of the fast variant.

…gain `trialLoadModernAddon` spawns `process.execPath` with `-e`. In a compiled distribution `process.execPath` is the product binary, which ignores `-e` and boots the whole CLI: the child loads natives, reaches the same detector, and spawns a child of its own, one level per launch. Stock Windows with no pwsh is the only host that reaches the trial, and it is the host this branch is for. The addon loader now answers the request at its first import and exits, so both hosts report a verdict: a JavaScript runtime through the `-e` script, the product binary through the loader. Also drops a `CommandSummary` cast by building the summary map in the pass that checks it. Refs #895

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
Make the modern addon available before the fallback trial.
initLoaderContext() detects AVX2 before maybeExtractEmbeddedAddon() runs. On a first compiled launch with an empty versioned cache, these paths can contain no modern addon. The trial then returns "unknown" and selects baseline.
In the direct embedded-file path, later extraction writes only the selected baseline addon. Later launches still cannot trial the modern addon. Extract or otherwise locate the embedded modern addon before detection. Add an empty-cache compiled-host regression test.

Bun 1.4 Bun.spawnSync timeout result exitCode signalCode stdout documentation
💡 Result:
Bun.spawnSync is a synchronous process-spawning API in Bun that executes a command and blocks the event loop until the process exits [1]. The function accepts an options object that can include a timeout and returns a SyncSubprocess object containing the execution results [2][1]. Key properties of the result returned by Bun.spawnSync include: stdout and stderr: These properties contain the output of the process as Buffer instances [1]. exitCode: An integer representing the exit code of the process [1][3]. signalCode: A string (or sometimes a number) indicating the signal that caused the process to terminate, if applicable [2][3]. success: A boolean indicating whether the process exited with a zero exit code [1][3]. exitedDueToTimeout: A boolean indicating if the process was terminated because it exceeded the specified timeout [3]. Configuration options for Bun.spawnSync include: timeout: A number representing the maximum time in milliseconds the process is allowed to run [2][4]. If this limit is exceeded, the process is killed using the signal specified by killSignal [2][4]. killSignal: A string or number specifying the signal used to terminate the process when a timeout occurs, or when an AbortSignal is triggered, or when the process exceeds its maxBuffer limit (defaults to SIGTERM) [2][5][6]. Example usage: const result = Bun.spawnSync(["echo", "hello"], { timeout: 1000 }); console.log(result.stdout.toString); // "hello\n" if (result.exitedDueToTimeout) { console.log("Process timed out"); }

What
Two independent startup fixes:
1.
veyyon --helpno longer loads every command module. The CLI runner (@veyyon/utils/cli) now renders the root listing fromsummarymetadata carried by the command registry (packages/coding-agent/src/cli-commands.ts), loading only the hidden default command's module for its inline flag table. Any entry without a summary falls back to loading the full table rather than rendering an incomplete listing.2.
commands/launch.tsno longer statically imports../main. It pulled the entire session/runtime module graph (~0.8s of module load) at module scope, so any path that touched the command class paid for all of it.runRootCommandand the ACP terminal-auth helper now load insiderun().3. Stock-Windows AVX2 detection fixed, verdicts persisted. The win32 probe ran
[System.Runtime.Intrinsics.X86.Avx2]::IsSupportedthroughpowershell.exe, but stock PowerShell 5.1 runs .NET Framework — which has no such type — so every AVX2-capable machine without PowerShell 7 answeredunknownand silently ran the slower baseline addon (the[veyyon] warning: could not detect CPU AVX2 supportline). Now:pwsh.exefirst;unknown;<nativesDir>/host-variant.json, schema-versioned and keyed by platform, architecture, and CPU model; warm launches skip probing.
