Discovery matched a git remote's host against the instance URL's host, so a server answering SSH on a different name than its web UI resolved to nothing — and said so only in a debug log. Resolution now runs in three stages. A remote host is matched directly, then against configured aliases, and failing both the instances are asked for the repository: Gitea publishes its SSH hostname in a repository's ssh_url, so the right instance identifies itself. What that turns up is saved as a host alias, so later repositories on the same host resolve with no lookup at all, and the mapping is visible and editable rather than hidden. Each unknown host is probed at most once per session. When nothing resolves the sidebar now names the unmatched host and offers Add Host Alias, instead of showing an empty section. Aliases can also be written by hand as "remote-host = instance URL", accepting =, -> and =>, ignoring ports, and skipping # comments. List preferences now merge workspace entries onto global ones rather than letting an empty global array mask them. Adds Tests/host-aliases.test.js covering both directions: unmatched hosts reported and nothing persisted, a hand-written alias, detection from ssh_url, and a later repository resolving from the stored alias without a probe. 131 checks across three suites. Also adds CLAUDE.md, and .gitea/workflows/ci.yml running the suites, script syntax checks, manifest validation, and a generated-image check. Tools/make-icons.py gains --check, which compares decompressed pixels so a differing zlib version cannot fail it spuriously.

Tests
Two suites that run the extension's real code under plain Node. Nova's runtime and a Gitea server are both stubbed, so there is nothing to install and nothing to reach over the network.
Tests/run.sh # all suites
node Tests/units.test.js
node Tests/host-aliases.test.js
node Tests/integration.test.js
Each exits non-zero on failure, so Tests/run.sh works as a CI step.
What is here
| File | Purpose |
|---|---|
nova-stub.js |
Stands in for Nova's runtime: nova.*, TreeView, TreeItem, Issue, IssueCollection, Process, Range, NotificationRequest. Records messages, clipboard writes, and opened files on globals so assertions can inspect them. |
fake-gitea.js |
A canned Gitea 1.27 instance served through a fetch() stub — three workflow runs, two pull requests, reviews with a line comment, artifacts, secrets, and variables. Records every request it answers. |
assert.js |
The Checker used by both suites. |
units.test.js |
Remote URL parsing, diff-hunk arithmetic, per-file diff extraction, time formatting, preference precedence, HTTP error messages, the pre-1.24 /actions/tasks fallback, pagination and query building, and the no-token path. |
host-aliases.test.js |
Instances answering SSH on a different hostname than the web UI: alias parsing, the unmatched case, a hand-written alias, detection from a repository's ssh_url, and a later repository resolving from the stored alias without another probe. |
integration.test.js |
Activates the extension against a real throwaway git checkout, renders all four sidebar sections, and drives the commands that write files or call the API. |
host-aliases.test.js and integration.test.js create their git fixtures in a temporary directory and
remove them afterwards; nothing is written inside the repository.
Adding a case
Fixtures live in fake-gitea.js — add to the exported data and, if the route is
new, to the router at the bottom of that file. Assertions use
t.check(label, condition, detail) or t.equals(label, actual, expected);
detail is printed only when the check fails.
If a check fails on a value you believe is correct, confirm the expectation by hand before changing the extension — the diff-hunk line arithmetic in particular is easy to get wrong in a test.
