The first push of the branch ran the Tests matrix on all three operating
systems. Every Python job failed; the causes were:
- numpy missing in CI: the WD14 engine tests import it (requirements-dev)
- macOS: temp directories resolve through /private; the admin API tests
now use the real path like the gallery roots they compare against
- Windows: the startup banner printed an emoji, which raises
UnicodeEncodeError on a legacy-code-page console and aborted loading
the whole node; the banner is ASCII now and a test loads the package
under a cp1252 stdout
- Windows: gallery subfolders came back with backslashes, which neither
the folder tree nor the search filter understand; they are "/" joined
on every platform. A relative DEFAULT_DB_PATH kept its forward slashes
after being joined to the extension root; it is normalised now
- Windows: sqlite connections opened with `with sqlite3.connect()` are
not closed by the context manager and linger until garbage collection,
which holds a file lock there. Production sites (vacuum, diagnostics,
restore inspection) close explicitly; a restore that swaps the API's
database object closes the previous one; PromptModel keeps a registry
so a shutdown or a test can close every instance
- Windows: served files were still open when their temp directory was
removed (tests now read the body), a log download test compared text
mode newlines, two tests compared paths with a hard-coded separator
tests/open_handles.py makes the Linux run fail the way Windows would:
every database test base checks, right before deleting its files, that
nothing in the process still holds them open.
