Answer 1

Verified end-to-end. The repo was absent locally, so I cloned it, checked out 9c1f209, installed deps, built the /tmp .mts probe, ran it (8/8 PASS), reproduced the .ts/CJS pitfall, and confirmed the existing suite only covers a fragment. Solution written to ~/DOC-1-solution.md.

DOC-1 — Falsifying the README "session status" claims at runtime

Repo: get-h3/sdk-typescript · Commit: 9c1f209 · Task: DOC-1 Artifact: /tmp/doc1-runtime-probe.mts · Result: 8/8 PASS

1. What was claimed

Commit 9c1f209 added to the GET /v1/sessions/:id section of README.md: first /v1/process decision end ⇒ session starts completed, else active; a later /v1/process or /v1/result end ⇒ non-cancelled session becomes completed; /v1/cancel marks cancelled; DELETE removes it; a cancelled session cannot later complete; expired is in the enum but never produced.

2. Root-cause analysis

These are runtime transitions of an in-process Hono router, so the cheap gates can't decide them:

Gate	Why it can't falsify
`grep`	Tokens appear in enum, comments, and README — tokens ≠ branch reachability.
`tsc --noEmit`	`status` is a union type; every assignment type-checks regardless of precedence.
Existing Vitest	Asserts `completed` in exactly one place (`harness.test.ts:751`, `/v1/result` path). No test for first-process-`end`, later-process-`end`, cancel, or the negative terminal case. `expired` exists only in `protocol.ts`.

The state machine is in src/harness.ts: :129 initializer, :123 later-process flip, :206–211 result flip (guarded !== "cancelled"), :118 early-return that makes cancel terminal, :245/:256 cancel branches, :307 sessions.delete, and protocol.ts:337 enum.

Verified pattern: import the SDK by absolute path (probe stays in /tmp); let onProcess/onResult switch on a module-level mode; drive create/GET/result/GET/cancel/GET/DELETE/GET via app.request(); print PASS/FAIL + actual per claim and map each to its source line.

Sibling pitfall (reproduced): a /tmp/*.ts probe dies under tsx with Top-level await is currently not supported with the "cjs" output format because /tmp has no package.json "type": "module". Name it .mts.

4. Verification

Probe output (actual run):

PASS [1/8] status enum ... ⟵ proves src/protocol.ts:337
PASS [2/8] first /v1/process decision=end creates session completed ⟵ src/harness.ts:129
PASS [3/8] first /v1/process decision!=end creates session active ⟵ src/harness.ts:129
PASS [4/8] later /v1/process decision=end transitions active->completed ⟵ src/harness.ts:123
PASS [5/8] /v1/result decision=end transitions active->completed ⟵ src/harness.ts:206-211
PASS [6/8] POST /v1/cancel marks cancelled (onCancel hook AND default branch) ⟵ src/harness.ts:245,256
PASS [7/8] cancelled session does NOT flip to completed on a later end decision ⟵ src/harness.ts:118,206
PASS [8/8] DELETE returns 200 {terminated:true} then GET returns 404 ⟵ src/harness.ts:307

8/8 documented claims verified against runtime behavior.

Claim → source-line map: enum protocol.ts:337; first-end-completed and first-text-active harness.ts:129; later-process-end :123; result-end :206–211; cancel branches :245,256; cancelled-terminal negative :118,206; delete terminal :307.

Pitfall reproduced: renaming to /tmp/doc1-runtime-probe.ts fails with Top-level await is currently not supported with the "cjs" output format; .mts passes.

Baseline: vitest run src/__tests__/harness.test.ts → 26 passed, yet only harness.test.ts:751 asserts completed; grep -rn expired src/ (excluding tests) hits only protocol.ts:52,337.

Verdict: every sentence added by DOC-1 is true of the runtime, and the /tmp .mts probe is the cheap decisive gate that keeps it verifiable.

{"description": "Documenting a library's state-machine semantics (README 'status becomes completed when an end decision is processed') is not verifiable by grep, tsc or the existing unit suite: the claims are about RUNTIME behavior of an HTTP router, and a worker-authored doc edit can silently overstate it (e.g. claiming a cancelled session can still complete). The cheap, decisive verification is a standalone tsx probe that drives the real router in-process through Hono's app.request() and asserts each documented sentence as a separate labeled check. Pattern that worked: (1) import the SDK entrypoint from the repo by ABSOLUTE path so the probe can live in /tmp and never dirty the repo tree; (2) build a Hono app with createH3Router(harness) where the harness's onProcess/onResult switch on a module-level mode variable so one probe can produce both 'text' and 'end' first decisions; (3) drive create -> GET session -> result -> GET session -> cancel -> GET -> DELETE -> GET, printing PASS/FAIL per documented claim plus the actual value; (4) map every PASS back to the source line it proves. Result: 8/8 claims verified, including the negative case (a cancelled session does NOT flip to completed on a later end decision) and the terminal case (DELETE 200 then GET 404).
