aprender-mcp 0.64.0

//! Shared subprocess wrapper for M2/M3 tools.
//!
//! Every M2 tool spawns `apr <subcommand> [...args] --json` and passes stdout
//! through to the MCP client verbatim. Non-zero exit maps to `isError: true`
//! with stderr attached. This module centralizes that pattern so each tool is
//! a thin definition + a list of CLI args.
//!
//! M3 (FALSIFY-MCP-006) adds [`run_apr_cancellable`], which polls a
//! [`std::sync::mpsc::Receiver`] between `try_wait` checks and escalates to
//! SIGTERM → (grace window) → SIGKILL on the spawned subprocess when a
//! cancellation is signalled. The non-cancellable [`run_apr`] is kept as a
//! thin wrapper for tools that don't support cancellation yet.
//!
//! #2418: the failure path used to pick *either* stderr *or* stdout — stdout
//! only when stderr was empty. `apr qa` writes its JSON gate report to stdout
//! and a one-line summary to stderr, so every failing QA run (the tool's
//! primary use case) reached the client as a single line with the >3 KB
//! report thrown away. [`failure_result`] now keeps the summary as the first
//! content block and attaches the report as a second one, so a failing gate
//! is as inspectable as a passing one.
