OAuth refresh operations now have a 15-second timeout. The authentication token documentation no longer references an example when describing environment variable usage.

refreshIfExpiredLocked now uses a 15-second context timeout. Refresh cancellation, persistence, error handling, and resolver-cache behavior remain unchanged.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 505f5

Valid OAuth refreshes that take longer than 15 seconds can unnecessarily force users to log in again. Correct the required deadline before merging; complete the command documentation and output coverage as well.

Follow-up from the review on #59. This PR removes the dangling sentence but does not close the doc comment, and the two code defects are still open.

Required

  1. Restore the usage example (review comment). The page now has no usage snippet at all. Add export SAFEDEP_TOKEN=$(safedep auth token) under Description, plus the Flags and Exit codes sections the DEVGUIDE requires for a leaf command doc.

  2. Refresh deadline (review comment). This does not need a signature change. refreshIfExpiredLocked is the only production caller, and RefreshAndPersistIfExpired and RefreshTokens already take a context.Context. Four lines at internal/app/app.go:308:

    ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 30*time.Second)
    defer cancel()
    
    fresh, err := cliauth.RefreshAndPersistIfExpired(ctx, store, creds, a.keychainOptsLocked())

    go build ./... and go test ./internal/... pass with this applied.

  3. Zero-expiry refresh no-op (review body). oauth2 treats a zero Expiry as never expired, so a stored token without a parseable exp is returned as fresh with no HTTP call, then printed with exit 0. Three lines in internal/auth/refresh.go:

    expiry, err := AccessTokenExpiry(accessToken)
    if err != nil {
        expiry = time.Now().Add(-time.Second)
    }

    All existing tests, including refresh_test.go, pass with this applied.

  4. Test for the command (review comment). One test that runs auth token with a fake resolver and asserts stdout is exactly the token plus newline. This pins the contract that scripts depend on.

Not required

  • Expiry leeway in IsExpired. Narrow window, and the consumer gets a clear Unauthenticated error. Follow-up.
  • Verb justification and DEVGUIDE drift (review comment). Convention debt, separate PR is fine.
  • TTY hint (review comment). Recommendation only.

Items 2 and 3 can land here or in a separate fix(auth) PR. Either way they should not wait.

refreshIfExpiredLocked passed context.Background() to
RefreshAndPersistIfExpired, and oauth2 falls back to http.DefaultClient,
which has no timeout. A hung token endpoint would block the caller (for
example `safedep auth token`) forever. Wrap the refresh in a 15s timeout.

No signature change: refreshIfExpiredLocked is the only production caller,
and RefreshAndPersistIfExpired / RefreshTokens already take a context.

The deadline fix is correct and go test ./internal/... passes on this head. One inline note on how the timeout surfaces to the user.

Still open from the follow-up comment:

  • Doc example. The page still has no usage snippet. Add export SAFEDEP_TOKEN=$(safedep auth token) under Description, plus Flags and Exit codes sections.
  • Zero-expiry refresh no-op in internal/auth/refresh.go. Unchanged. A stored token without a parseable exp is still returned as fresh with no HTTP call.
  • Test for auth token. None added.

If those land in a separate PR, say so here and this one can merge as is.

📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add the required command sections and a token-capture example.

docs/DEVGUIDE.md requires command pages to cover synopsis, flags, common use cases, and exit codes. The auth-token command is intended for scripts, but this page has no Flags or Exit codes section and no token-capture example. Document the inherited flags, exit codes, and an example such as export SAFEDEP_TOKEN="$(safedep auth token)".

300-319: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add a command-level test for safedep auth token output.

tokenCmd calls a.ControlPlaneToken() and writes the result with fmt.Fprintln, producing the token followed by one newline. The command is a documented scripting interface, but current auth tests only inspect the command tree. Add a fixture-token test that asserts exact <token>\n stdout.
