AGENTS.md

FastSync is a high-performance file synchronization system written in C11. It supports TCP and SSH transports, TLS encryption (OpenSSL), streaming zstd compression, multithreaded transfers, and incremental sync. The build uses CMake; CI runs on Gitea Actions (.gitea/workflows/ci.yaml).

Dependency installation

CI rule: never add apt-get install / pip install steps to CI workflows — use the custom Docker image instead. The image is built from the repo-root Dockerfile and is the same image CI uses: gitea.tap-tap.win/taptap/fastsync-ci:v10. It contains the full toolchain: gcc/g++, CMake, libzstd-dev, libssl-dev, make, git, cppcheck, clang-format, python3 + pytest + pytest-xdist, openssh-client, and Node.js.

Host rule: for local development, use nix-shell (see README.md) which provides zstd, OpenSSL, CMake, and gcc. The Docker image can also be used locally for CI parity.

# Use the prebuilt CI image directly (faster, guaranteed CI parity)
docker pull gitea.tap-tap.win/taptap/fastsync-ci:v10
docker tag gitea.tap-tap.win/taptap/fastsync-ci:v10 fastsync-ci:local

# Or build the image from the repo-root Dockerfile
# (Note: the prebuilt :v10 image reflects the previous Dockerfile state;
#  rebuild from source to pick up any newly added packages like lcov/valgrind.)
docker build -t fastsync-ci:local .

# Build, run unit tests, and run integration tests inside the container
docker run --rm -v "$PWD:/workspace" -w /workspace fastsync-ci:local \
  sh -c 'cmake -B build -S . && cmake --build build -j$(nproc) && ./build/tests && python3 -m pytest tests/integration/ -n 4 --dist=load'

# Avoid root-owned build/ artifacts by matching your host UID/GID
docker run --rm --user "$(id -u):$(id -g)" -v "$PWD:/workspace" \
  -w /workspace fastsync-ci:local \
  sh -c 'cmake -B build -S . && cmake --build build -j$(nproc) && ./build/tests && python3 -m pytest tests/integration/ -n 4 --dist=load'

Note: The first cmake configure (cmake -B build -S .) fetches xxHash from GitHub via FetchContent — network access is required. Subsequent reconfigures reuse the cached source.

If a dependency is missing from the CI image, add it to the Dockerfile (and rebuild) rather than adding an install step to the CI workflow.

CI Conventions

When configuring for CI parity, use:

cmake -B build -S . -DSTRICT_WARNINGS=ON        # -Wextra -Wpedantic -Werror
cmake -B build -S . -DSANITIZER=address           # AddressSanitizer (ASan)
cmake -B build -S . -DSANITIZER=thread            # ThreadSanitizer (TSan)

The CI workflow (.gitea/workflows/ci.yaml) runs lint (clang-format, cppcheck), then a fast PR gate — build + unit + a representative subset of integration tests marked @pytest.mark.ci, parallelized with pytest-xdist (-n 4 --dist=load). The full coverage jobs (full integration suite as -m "not setpriv", sanitizer, fuzz, coverage, valgrind) run only on push to dev/main; pull requests skip them to keep PR CI under ~3 minutes. The two setpriv privilege tests are excluded from CI via a marker because their result depends on the runner/container uid and host mount permissions.

Build

cmake -B build -S . && cmake --build build -j$(nproc)

Test

./build/tests                # unit tests
python3 -m pytest tests/integration/ -n 4 --dist=load -m "not setpriv"   # full integration suite (CI excludes env-dependent privilege tests)
python3 -m pytest tests/integration/ -n 4 --dist=load -m ci   # PR-gate subset only

CI Workflow — Waiting for Results

When running the CI workflow via tea (the task execution agent), always set a sufficient timeout (e.g., 600000ms) to allow CI to finish. After CI completes, check the results yourself — do not assume success. Use gh run watch or similar to monitor CI status, then inspect logs on failure.

CI Troubleshooting

If lint (clang-format) fails

Run clang-format in the CI Docker image to match the exact CI version:

docker run --rm -v "$PWD:/workspace" -w /workspace gitea.tap-tap.win/taptap/fastsync-ci:v10 \
  sh -c 'find src/ tests/ -name "*.c" -o -name "*.h" | xargs clang-format -i'

If cppcheck fails

Fix reported issues locally, then verify with:

docker run --rm -v "$PWD:/workspace" -w /workspace gitea.tap-tap.win/taptap/fastsync-ci:v10 \
  sh -c 'cppcheck --enable=warning,style,performance,portability --suppress=missingIncludeSystem --error-exitcode=1 --inline-suppr src/ tests/'

If integration tests fail

Run locally before pushing:

python3 -m pytest tests/ -v --tb=short

Branch Strategy

Two main branches: dev (integration) and main (stable releases).

Rules

• All PRs target dev — never target main directly
• dev is the default branch in Gitea repo settings
• main is protected — only merged from dev via PR with 2 approvals + full CI pass
• Feature/bug branches branch from dev, PR back to dev
• dev → main merges happen on-demand or weekly, requiring full CI + review

# Start a new feature
git checkout dev && git pull
git checkout -b feat/my-feature
# ... work, commit, push
git push -u origin feat/my-feature
# Create PR targeting dev

Creating the dev branch (one-time setup)

git checkout main && git pull
git checkout -b dev
git push origin dev
# Then in Gitea: Settings → Repository → Default Branch → dev

Branch protection (Gitea repo settings)

For dev:

• ✅ Require PR for merging
• ✅ Require 1 approval
• ✅ Require status checks (all CI jobs must pass)
• ✅ Delete branch after merge

For main:

• ✅ Require PR from dev only
• ✅ Require CI
• ✅ Require 2 approvals
• ✅ No direct pushes

Automated Agent Workflows

All agents run locally via the opencode CLI. There is no CI-based agent automation — agents are invoked on-demand by the developer or by this assistant.

One-command batch workflow

For fixing a set of issues and creating one integration PR:

# 1. Run each subagent on its category
opencode run --agent security-auditor "Fix all open security issues"
opencode run --agent debugger "Fix all open bugs"
opencode run --agent test-writer "Add missing test coverage"

# 2. The assistant handles: merging branches, fixing CI failures,
#    pushing, creating the integration PR, waiting for CI, iterating.
#    The developer only reviews the final PR.

Issue triage loop

When you want to fix a batch of issues autonomously:

1. Tell the assistant: "Fix all open issues and create one big PR"
2. The assistant delegates to subagents in parallel
3. Merges their branches, handles CI failures iteratively
4. Pushes and opens the final PR
5. You review the PR once CI passes — no intermediate check-ins

Scheduling

For periodic maintenance (security audits, code quality scans), run:

opencode run --agent security-auditor "Audit the codebase for vulnerabilities"
opencode run --agent code-quality-guardian "Scan for code quality issues"

This can be cron'd locally if desired (e.g., crontab -e with opencode run).

Is opencode a good option?

Yes, for FastSync's needs. The hybrid model works well:

• opencode's 17 specialized agents handle deep code analysis, fixes, tests, and reviews
• The assistant orchestrates subagents, merges branches, and iterates on CI
• You only review the final output

The key limitation: opencode is session-based, not a persistent daemon. But for the "fix all issues, one PR" workflow, this is fine — the assistant runs the full pipeline in one shot. Persistent webhook-driven automation isn't available for Gitea, but the one-shot batch approach is simpler and gives you full control over what gets merged.

Recommendations for this project

• Do use the batch pattern: delegate to subagents, let the assistant merge + iterate CI, review once
• Don't try to run opencode in Gitea Actions — the CI container doesn't have your LLM keys or the interactive context agents need
• If you want fully hands-off periodic scans, set up a local cron job or systemd timer that runs opencode run and posts results to Gitea via API

Gitea API & tea CLI

Check CI status via API

TOKEN="<token>"
curl -s -H "Authorization: token $TOKEN" \
  "https://gitea.tap-tap.win/api/v1/repos/TapTap/FastSync/actions/runs?limit=5" \
  | python3 -c "
import json,sys; d=json.load(sys.stdin)
for r in d.get('workflow_runs',[]):
    path = r.get('path','')
    prn = path.split('@')[1].replace('refs/pull/','').replace('/head','') if '@' in path else ''
    print(f'PR #{prn}: sha={r[\"head_sha\"][:8]} {r[\"status\"]} {r.get(\"conclusion\",\"\")}')
"

Post review comments

curl -s -X POST -H "Authorization: token $TOKEN" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"body":"MARKDOWN_REVIEW_BODY"}' \
  "https://gitea.tap-tap.win/api/v1/repos/TapTap/FastSync/issues/<PR_NUMBER>/comments"

Use tea for PR operations

tea pr list --repo TapTap/FastSync
tea pr close <number> --repo TapTap/FastSync

Common pitfalls

• Per-thread SSL context: io_ssl is stored per-thread (static __thread SSL* io_ssl). Each thread that performs protocol I/O must call io_set_ssl() to install its own SSL object before using send_* / receive_* primitives. The main thread's SSL context is not automatically inherited by worker threads.
• SSL WANT_READ/WANT_WRITE retry: Always retry on SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ and SSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE in send_n_data/receive_n_data. Removing these breaks TLS multithreaded transfers.
• clang-format version: The CI image uses clang-format 18. Always format inside the CI Docker container for exact match.
• Merge order matters: Merge the most comprehensive branch first, then smaller ones, to minimize conflicts when creating a combined branch.
