- The cargo target folder is <cache>/cargo-target, next to Wasmtime's
cache, which moves to <cache>/wasmtime: Wasmtime's cleanup worker
deletes unknown entries in its folder, also Cargo's artifacts.
- Builds use the SDK at <cache>/sdk/<content hash>/, so cargo reuses
the compiled SDK in every world. /plugins/cargo/sdk/ stays for agents.
- Tests run in the release profile and share compiled crates with the
release build.
- The cargo and cli tests use a persistent cache in CARGO_TARGET_TMPDIR:
warm, the cargo suite takes 11 s (was 235 s) and the cli suite 6 s
(was 149 s).
- nix flake check runs ignored stress tests. AGENTS.md: rules for fast
tests.
cargo.build and the runner (review T22R): builds use the network again;
core.unlock and core.notify in order under the runner; quiet test
output; manifest preparation keeps [workspace], target tables, renamed
and optional entries; cargo.rpc.discover; -32004 with data.output;
retention of 10 builds; light, empty test worlds with an in-memory
journal; only CARGO_/RUST_/SAUSAGE_ variables; stdin is null; the runner
through --config. A compile cache that cannot be created is not fatal.
Activation replaces plugin.wasm without a gap.
Console and main: init ships the workspace Cargo.lock and creates the
world atomically; each console command runs in its own task, so ps,
stop, and kill work during a slow call; SAUSAGE_HEADLESS; the terminal
mode is restored; signals during boot; chat text is not taken as a
command.
Tests: 20 more tests for PROTOCOL.md sections 2 to 10; the cargo tests
choose the libtest binary from cargo's JSON output and time out.
- cargo.build (native): one source copy, tests under WASI, release
build to /state/cargo/builds/<n>/, process groups killed on cancel.
The host writes the SDK copy to /plugins/cargo/sdk/ at start.
- sausage test-runner: one instance per test, in parallel, with its own
mount table (empty world, package folder at its path); answers
core.lock, core.unlock, core.notify, core.log.
- The console: rustyline, notifications while typing, ls/cat through the
process view, methods, ps, log, activate, revert, stop, kill.
- core.notify on stdout is handled in order, before the response.
