From 10ea31e5862decf7d1716ee7831db571c4bcb002 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Snider Date: Thu, 5 Feb 2026 06:55:49 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Standardize CLI Error Handling (#318) * Standardize CLI error handling and deprecate cli.Fatal - Updated `pkg/cli/output.go` to send error and warning output to `os.Stderr`. - Added `ErrorWrap`, `ErrorWrapVerb`, and `ErrorWrapAction` helpers to `pkg/cli/output.go`. - Deprecated `cli.Fatal` family of functions in `pkg/cli/errors.go`. - Introduced `cli.ExitError` and `cli.Exit` helper to allow commands to return specific exit codes. - Updated `pkg/cli/app.go` to silence Cobra errors and handle error printing and process exit in `Main`. - Refactored multiple commands (QA, SDK, CI, Updater) to return errors instead of exiting abruptly. - Replaced direct `os.Stderr` writes with standardized CLI or log helpers across the codebase. - Updated tests to accommodate changes in output destination. * Fix CI failure: remove unused fmt import in pkg/mcp/transport_tcp.go - Removed unused "fmt" import in `pkg/mcp/transport_tcp.go` that was causing CI failure. - Verified build and relevant tests pass. * Standardize CLI error handling and fix formatting issues - Updated `pkg/cli/output.go` to send error and warning output to `os.Stderr`. - Added `ErrorWrap`, `ErrorWrapVerb`, and `ErrorWrapAction` helpers to `pkg/cli/output.go`. - Deprecated `cli.Fatal` family of functions in `pkg/cli/errors.go`. - Introduced `cli.ExitError` and `cli.Exit` helper to allow commands to return specific exit codes. -
