Sample Go CLI/TUI reliability review
This sample shows the shape of the paid deliverable. A real review is tailored from the buyer's repo, terminal behavior, logs, and target platforms.
Example finding
- Tool state: recursive tailing and TUI redraw behavior work in the happy path, but file discovery, event buffering, terminal input, and shutdown ownership need clearer boundaries.
- Main risk: adding more watchers or filters before defining goroutine ownership can create stuck tails, missed files, duplicate events, or redraw stalls.
- Reliability decision: isolate scanner, watcher, tailer, event bus, and TUI renderer responsibilities before adding more flags.
Example next experiments
- Add fixture tests for new file creation, rotation, binary-file skipping, and include/exclude filters.
- Run a synthetic high-churn directory test and record dropped-event behavior.
- Make shutdown and terminal cleanup deterministic before packaging releases.
- Only then add broader platform packaging and long-running daemon-style usage.
