CLI Tests

Tests live under __tests__/ and run via Vitest.

• Most tests import runCli() in-process (see helpers/cli-runner.ts) so clients/cli/src is measured under the coverage gate. Suite-wide helpers/mock-open-url.ts (vitest setupFiles) mocks open-url so an armed interactive OAuth path cannot launch a real browser.
• e2e.test.ts (and root scripts/smoke-cli.mjs) spawn the built binary for shebang / process.exit paths — pretest builds test-servers + the CLI bundle first.

Scripts (from clients/cli/)

npm test                  # pretest build + all tests
npm run test:cli          # subset: cli.test.ts
npm run test:cli-tools    # subset: tools.test.ts
npm run test:cli-headers  # subset: headers.test.ts
npm run test:cli-metadata # subset: metadata.test.ts
npm run test:coverage     # build + ≥90 per-file coverage gate
npm run validate          # format:check && lint && typecheck && test

Helpers

Helper	Role
helpers/cli-runner.ts	In-process runCli with stdout/stderr capture
helpers/mock-open-url.ts	Suite-wide open-url mock (vitest setupFiles)
helpers/assertions.ts	expectCliSuccess / expectCliFailure / output matchers
helpers/fixtures.ts	Temp config / client.json factories

OAuth interactive tests stub or drive the loopback callback in-process rather than requiring a real browser.
