feat(client): serve getEnvs over runner IPC

wan9chi · wan9chi · commit a25bdcd39b09 · 2026-06-14T17:47:17.000+08:00
Motivation:
Tools need a bulk env read path for APIs like Vite loadEnv that discover an env prefix rather than a single name. Before this change, getEnvs existed on the JS surface but always returned an empty match set.

Scope:
Add the GetEnvs request/response frame, Rust client support, NAPI getEnvs implementation, server-side env glob matching, invalid-glob error surfacing, and print-only e2e coverage. This PR intentionally does not add getEnvs match sets to cache fingerprints.

Verification:
- cargo test -p vite_task_server --test integration
- UPDATE_SNAPSHOTS=1 cargo test -p vite_task_bin --test e2e_snapshots fetch_envs_reads_match_set -- --ignored
- cargo test -p vite_task_bin --test e2e_snapshots fetch_envs_reads_match_set -- --ignored

 # Changelog
 
 - **Changed** Tracked environment values in task cache fingerprints are now stored only as SHA-256 digests, and env-related cache miss details report names without values.
+- **Added** Runner-aware `getEnvs` calls now return env values served by the runner for matching env glob patterns ([#449](https://github.com/voidzero-dev/vite-task/pull/449)).
 - **Fixed** Runner-aware `getEnv` reads now affect task cache fingerprints, so changing a tool-served env value invalidates cached output and names the env var in the miss message ([#454](https://github.com/voidzero-dev/vite-task/pull/454)).
 - **Added** Runner-aware tools can now opt the current task run out of caching through the new IPC channel; Vite dev server integration uses this automatically ([#441](https://github.com/voidzero-dev/vite-task/pull/441))
 - **Fixed** Prefix environment assignments like `PATH=... command` now affect executable lookup during task planning, so tools provided only by the prefixed `PATH` can be resolved correctly ([#440](https://github.com/voidzero-dev/vite-task/pull/440))
