The user wanted to determine when the command-line tool checks the sharing status with the server during startup. They expected this check to happen immediately but noticed other processes occur first. The user aimed to have the status check run on every startup and then start a 15-second timer after all initial tasks are completed.
Can you check when the CLI is checking for share status with the server? i would expect it to happen immediately at startup but seems like there's some other stuff done first
Here’s where the CLI checks share status and why it doesn’t happen “immediately” at process start.
Where the server check happens
TraceController.reconcileSharedState() in cli/src/core/trace-controller.ts calls api.listTraces() to fetch server traces and map them to sharedUrl.api.listTraces() issues GET /v1/traces in cli/src/services/api.ts.When it runs
createEffect in cli/src/tui/app.tsx: it first loads/merges remote config, then calls controller.start(), which immediately calls reconcileSharedState().controller.list() (called right after start(), and every 2s in the refresh loop), but is throttled to once per 15s (REMOTE_SHARE_REFRESH_MS = 15000) and deduped by remoteShareSyncPromise.Why you see other work first
loadRemoteConfig() (cli/src/services/config-loader.ts) fetches ${TRACES_URL}/config.json before controller.start().controller.list()) does adapter trace discovery and store upserts before the next share-sync attempt.Also note
TRACES_API_URL, TRACES_HTTP_URL, or TRACES_URL aren’t set (it clears local shared state once and returns).If you want this to happen earlier in startup, we could move the share sync to run before loadRemoteConfig() or trigger it explicitly before controller.list().
how about right after load remoteConfig,
Got it. Here’s a concise plan to make the share-status check run immediately after loadRemoteConfig() completes, before any other startup work. No changes executed yet.
Goal
Run server share-status reconciliation right after remote config is loaded, instead of waiting for controller start/list.
Plan (read-only)
Phase 1 — Core flow adjustments (lowest level first)
cli/src/tui/app.tsx around loadRemoteConfig(), controller.start(), and controller.list().controller.reconcileSharedState() directly or refactor a public “sync share status now” method on TraceController (prefer no API changes unless needed).Phase 2 — TUI initialization ordering
loadRemoteConfig() and before controller.start()/controller.list().Phase 3 — Diagnostics and behavior checks
REMOTE_SHARE_REFRESH_MS) still behaves as expected with the new call order.Atomic checklist
cli/src/tui/app.tsx.Before I proceed: do you want this to force an immediate server call even if it was recently synced (i.e., bypass the 15s throttle), or should it still respect the throttle? I recommend respecting the throttle unless you want a guaranteed call on every startup.
I want a call on every startup, and then the 15 second timer to kick off after everything is done
Understood. Here’s the concrete plan to guarantee a share-status call on every startup and only start the 15s throttle after the initial load finishes.
Plan
Phase 1 — API/Controller adjustments (lowest level first)
TraceController.reconcileSharedState() (or a new public wrapper) so startup can bypass the 15s throttle and still set lastRemoteShareSyncAt at the end.Phase 2 — TUI startup ordering
cli/src/tui/app.tsx, right after loadRemoteConfig() resolves, call the forced share-status sync.controller.start() and controller.list() sequence; the later calls will see lastRemoteShareSyncAt set, so the 15s timer begins after startup completes.Phase 3 — Diagnostics integrity
Atomic checklist
cli/src/core/trace-controller.ts.loadRemoteConfig() in cli/src/tui/app.tsx.REMOTE_SHARE_REFRESH_MS) starts after startup finishes.If this plan looks good, tell me to proceed and I’ll implement it.
