kube-coder preflight (run CI locally)
SkillDev toolsRun kube-coder's full CI suite locally before pushing — helm lint + unit tests, server.py tests, dashboard + controller SPA builds + vitest, and shell syntax checks. Use before opening or updating a PR so CI is green on the first push.
Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.
No other account needed.
Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.
Then ask your AI: use the kube-coder preflight (run CI locally) skill
What this skill tells your AI
The instructions your AI receives, as published by imran31415/kube-coder in .claude/skills/kc-preflight/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.
Mirrors .github/workflows/ci.yml so you catch failures before pushing instead
of waiting on a CI round-trip.
Run
kc-scope-prfirst. This skill runs whole suites; that one tells you which suites your change actually reaches, and what it left untested. A green preflight over a suite that never touches your diff is not evidence. Run the subset named by$ARGUMENTS(defaultall). Report a concise PASS/FAIL summary per section at the end.
Run from the repo root (/home/dev/kube-coder).
Prereqs (install once, idempotent)
export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
# helm (if missing)
command -v helm >/dev/null || {
cd /tmp && curl -fsSL https://get.helm.sh/helm-v3.14.4-linux-amd64.tar.gz | tar xz \
&& install -m755 linux-amd64/helm ~/.local/bin/helm; cd -; }

helm — lint + template + unit tests
export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
helm lint charts/workspace/ -f charts/workspace/tests/test-values.yaml
helm template test-ws charts/workspace/ -f charts/workspace/tests/test-values.yaml > /dev/null
helm unittest charts/workspace/
# controller chart too, if you touched it:
# helm lint charts/workspace-controller/ -f charts/workspace-controller/tests/test-values.yaml
# helm unittest charts/workspace-controller/
python — server.py unit + integration tests
make python-tests
# equivalently: cd charts/workspace && python3 -m unittest discover -s tests -p '*_test.py'
web — SPA typecheck, build, and vitest (BOTH apps)
There are two SPAs with separate lockfiles and CI jobs: the dashboard
(charts/workspace/web) and the controller (charts/workspace-controller/web).
CI runs each build (which is tsc --noEmit && vite build) then vitest — mirror
both:
for dir in charts/workspace/web charts/workspace-controller/web; do
yarn --cwd "$dir" install --frozen-lockfile # first run only
yarn --cwd "$dir" build # tsc + vite
yarn --cwd "$dir" test # vitest run
done
Ignore the DOMException [NetworkError] … /oauth/terminal/ noise in
TerminalPane tests — happy-dom tries to actually fetch iframe srcs; it's
harmless and pre-existing. Only the final Test Files … / Tests … tally matters.
shell — validate the entrypoint scripts
start.sh ships via {{ tpl (.Files.Get "start.sh") . }}, so a syntax error
there breaks every pod. Always:
bash -n charts/workspace/start.sh
For the SSH sidecar (embedded in YAML), rendering it through helm already
covers syntax; helm template … | grep to eyeball the script if you edited it.
What CI runs that this does NOT
- Docker Build Smoke Test — a full image build (~2 min). Usually not worth
reproducing locally; rely on CI. If you changed the
Dockerfile, do build it. - Trivy / Security Scanning — image + dependency CVE scans. CI-only.
Call those out in your summary so the user knows what's still pending after push.
Summary format
End with a table:
| Section | Result |
|---|---|
| helm lint/template/unittest | ✅ / ❌ |
| server.py tests | ✅ / ❌ |
| dashboard SPA build + vitest | ✅ / ❌ |
| controller SPA build + vitest | ✅ / ❌ |
shell bash -n | ✅ / ❌ |
If everything passes, tell the user it's safe to run kc-ship-pr.
