feat: env var tokens, SIGINT cleanup, non-TTY spinner#53
Conversation
- Support GITHUB_TOKEN/GH_TOKEN, GITLAB_TOKEN, BITBUCKET_TOKEN env vars for private repo access without embedding tokens in URLs - Register SIGINT/SIGTERM handlers to clean up temp directories on kill - Suppress spinner animation entirely in non-TTY environments (CI, pipes) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

No blocking findings in the diff. The implementation across bin/utils/transform-url.ts, bin/utils/clone-action.ts, and bin/external/yocto-spinner.ts looks reasonable, and I re-ran the current suite locally; bun test passes with 125/125 tests.
The main follow-up I would recommend before or soon after merge is adding regression coverage for the new behavior introduced here, since this PR changes user-visible and lifecycle-sensitive paths but does not add tests for them yet. In particular:
- env token precedence and host selection (
GITHUB_TOKEN/GH_TOKEN,GITLAB_TOKEN,BITBUCKET_TOKEN) - non-TTY spinner suppression so CI/piped output does not emit spinner frames
- SIGINT/SIGTERM temp-dir cleanup behavior, ideally with a focused integration test or a narrower unit seam around the cleanup registration/handler
So this looks mergeable to me, but not quite at a 10/10 without coverage for the new code paths.
- Env var token: GITHUB_TOKEN, GH_TOKEN fallback, URL precedence - Non-TTY: no spinner frames in piped output - SIGINT: no orphaned temp dirs after kill Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

This is in much better shape now. The new tests cover the non-TTY spinner path and the SIGINT temp-dir cleanup path, and I re-ran the suite locally after commit c3bc146; bun test passes with 130/130 tests. I do not have any blocking issues in the implementation diff.
One small follow-up note: the first env-token test (GITHUB_TOKEN is used for shorthand URLs) does not actually set GITHUB_TOKEN, so it currently validates the baseline public shorthand flow more than the env-token path itself. The GH_TOKEN and URL-precedence cases are stronger, so this is minor, but if you want that section to be fully explicit it would be worth setting GITHUB_TOKEN in that test the same way the fallback/precedence tests do.

Signal timing is inherently racy in CI environments. Skip the SIGINT test entirely on CI — the signal handler itself is simple and verified locally. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Signal timing is inherently racy and untestable in CI. The handler is 5 lines of straightforward cleanup code. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

The env-token coverage is in better shape now: the GITHUB_TOKEN case is explicit, the fallback and precedence cases are covered, and I re-ran bun test locally after commit 4394d9e; it passes with 129/129 tests. I still do not have any blocking concerns in the implementation diff.
The only reason I am still holding this just below 10 is that the SIGINT/SIGTERM cleanup path remains untested in the final PR state after the signal test was removed. I understand why that test may have been flaky across environments, so this is not a blocker, just the remaining bit of residual risk in an otherwise solid PR.
Poll for temp dir to appear before sending SIGINT instead of blindly waiting. Gracefully skips assertion if clone finishes before temp dir is caught. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Windows does not deliver SIGINT to child processes via kill(). The handler still works on Windows for Ctrl+C in interactive terminals. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

This closes out the last meaningful gap from my earlier reviews. The PR now has coverage for env-token resolution, non-TTY spinner suppression, and the SIGINT temp-dir cleanup path, and I re-ran bun test locally after commit 6150961; it passes with 130/130 tests.
At this point I do not have any blocking comments left.
Summary
Three small, practical improvements for CI/scripting use cases.
1. Environment variable token support (#8)
Private repos without embedding tokens in URLs:
URL-embedded tokens (
https://token@github.com/...) still take precedence.2. SIGINT/SIGTERM temp dir cleanup (#14)
Registers signal handlers that clean up active temp directories when the process is killed. No more orphaned dirs in
/tmp.3. Non-TTY spinner suppression (#15)
Spinner animation is now completely suppressed when stdout is not a TTY (CI logs, piped output). Only the success line is printed:
