Summary
Resolved timeout issues in
nox -s unit_testswhen running agent_skills_loader and skill_search feature tests by addressing fork-based multiprocessing deadlocks on overlayfs and fixing feature file detection logic.Changes
len(feature_paths) <= 2, preventing fork-based multiprocessing overhead and deadlocks that occur when many workers race to compile.pycfiles simultaneously on overlayfs.featurefiles, not just the first argument, ensuring specific feature files are run without adding the entire features/ directoryRoot Cause
The
behave-parallelrunner uses theforkstart method for multiprocessing, which can deadlock on overlayfs when multiple worker processes attempt to compile.pycfiles concurrently. This issue manifests when running a small number of feature files with many workers, causing the test suite to hang indefinitely.Testing
The fix ensures that:
nox -s unit_tests -- features/agent_skills_loader.feature features/skill_search.featurecompletes without hangingIssue Reference

Summary
This PR correctly resolves the
nox -s unit_teststimeout issue foragent_skills_loader.featureandskill_search.featureby addressing two distinct root causes. The fix is minimal, targeted, and all CI checks pass.Checklist

noxfile.py(bothunit_testsandcoverage_reportsessions)The original logic
session.posargs[0].endswith(".feature")only checked the first positional argument. When multiple feature files are passed (e.g.,-- features/a.feature features/b.feature), only the first was detected, causing the entirefeatures/directory to be appended as a fallback. The fix correctly usesany(arg.endswith(".feature") for arg in session.posargs)to check all posargs. ✅scripts/run_behave_parallel.pyAdded
or len(feature_paths) <= 2to the sequential-execution guard. This prevents fork-based multiprocessing deadlocks on overlayfs when running a small number of feature files with many workers. The fix is well-commented and the rationale is sound. ✅CI Results
