Summary

cudly --input-csv X --purchase moved real money but wrote zero audit
records. --audit-log was silently inert in CSV mode, and unlike the
non-CSV path the run never even checked that the log was writable before
touching AWS.

Root cause

git grep -n "WriteAuditRecord\|NewAuditRecord\|CheckAuditLogWritable" -- cmd/
on the base commit returns three non-test hits, and all three are on the
non-CSV path (executePurchasePipeline and CheckAuditLogWritable in
runToolMultiService). runToolFromCSV dispatches real purchases through
processPurchaseLoop -> executePurchase and never constructs an
AuditRecord, and never calls CheckAuditLogWritable.

On a partial failure there was no durable, per-recommendation record of
which rows succeeded, so an operator could only re-run the whole file --
which is a double purchase for the rows that already succeeded.

Fix

  • Extracted writePurchaseAuditRecord out of executePurchasePipeline so
    both purchase entry points (executePurchasePipeline, the main pipeline,
    and processPurchaseLoop, the --input-csv path) share it. Every
    recommendation that reaches a purchase attempt, dry run or real, is now
    recorded to cfg.AuditLog regardless of which path produced it.
    processPurchaseLoop and the legacy processRegionRecommendations path
    now thread a runID through so every recommendation carries a run ID
    grouping it with its invocation, matching the non-CSV path.
  • CheckAuditLogWritable now runs at the top of runToolFromCSV, before
    the CSV is even read, matching the non-CSV path's pre-flight check.
  • Extracted prepareCSVPurchaseRun out of runToolFromCSV, and added a
    purchaseAuditStatus helper, to keep both functions under the project's
    gocyclo budget (-over 10) after adding the new branches.

Regression test

  • TestRunToolFromCSV_WritesAuditRecordsOnPurchaseRun runs runToolFromCSV
    with ActualPurchase=true and invalid AWS credentials (so the purchase
    call fails the same way a real AWS error would) and asserts the audit log
    contains one record per recommendation with a run ID, source=cli, and a
    success/error status.
  • TestRunToolFromCSV_ChecksAuditLogWritability asserts an unwritable
    audit-log directory is rejected before the CSV is even read.

Proved both fail on the pre-fix code: built a detached worktree of
origin/main at this branch's base (12fe8389) with only the two new test
functions applied as a standalone file (the full test-file diff also
carries unrelated processPurchaseLoop signature-adaptation edits that
don't compile against the pre-fix signature). Both fail as expected: no
audit file is created, and the writability check never runs.

A note on existing-test fallout

Every existing test that reaches processPurchaseLoop now writes real
audit records wherever cfg.AuditLog resolves to. I set toolCfg.AuditLog
on every existing test call site that reaches the purchase loop, and added
a TestMain in cmd/main_test.go that points the shared toolCfg.AuditLog
default at a process-scoped temp file, as a safety net so a test that
reaches the loop without an explicit override doesn't silently create a
stray cmd/cudly-audit.jsonl file in the repo working directory on every
go test run.

Verification

  • go build ./cmd - clean
  • go vet ./cmd/... - clean
  • golangci-lint v2.10.1 (the exact CI pin, not the newer local default) run
    --timeout=10m from the repo root - 0 issues
  • gocyclo -over 10 -ignore "_test.go" cmd/ - clean
  • go mod tidy -diff - empty
  • go test -race -short ./... - all green, and git status clean (no
    stray files) after the full run

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • CSV purchase runs now write an audit record for each attempted purchase, including dry runs. Records include run details and indicate whether the purchase succeeded, failed, or was skipped.
    • Audit records for regional purchase runs now include a run ID specific to each invocation.
  • Bug Fixes
    • The audit log destination is checked before a CSV purchase run proceeds, so an unwritable destination results in an error before recommendations are loaded or cloud calls are made.
    • Declining a purchase confirmation does not create audit records.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

CSV purchase runs now check audit-log writability before loading recommendations. Purchase loops receive a run ID and write audit records for attempted purchases, including dry runs. Tests cover audit-record contents, preflight errors, and temporary audit-log paths.

Changes

CSV purchase audit trail

Layer / File(s) Summary
Shared purchase audit records and run IDs
cmd/multi_service.go, cmd/multi_service_helpers.go, cmd/multi_service_test.go
Purchase loops receive run IDs and use a shared helper to write audit records. Attempted purchases receive success, error, or skipped status. Declined confirmations return canceled results without writing audit records. Tests cover purchase-loop audit records and statuses.
CSV run preparation and audit coverage
cmd/multi_service.go, cmd/multi_service_test.go, cmd/multi_service_max_instances_test.go, cmd/main_test.go
CSV preparation checks audit-log writability before reading the input, then filters recommendations and loads AWS configuration. CSV purchases pass the run ID to the purchase loop. Tests cover CSV audit records, preflight errors, and temporary audit-log paths.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 1e690

CSV purchases can continue without audit records if writing fails, and a completed purchase can go unrecorded if the process stops during the delay. Fix those audit gaps before merging; strengthen the preflight test to protect the required ordering.

Compare the audit status with the purchase result.

This assertion passes when a failed purchase is recorded as "success". Compare rec["status"] with the corresponding purchase report row, or use a controlled failing client and require "error". The regression test then checks the per-recommendation status required for reconciliation. (github.com)

Make the preflight test detect CSV-read ordering.

The current CSV is readable. The test would still pass if runToolFromCSV read it before checking the audit log. Set CSVInput to a nonexistent path and retain the assertion that the audit-log error wins. That checks the required order directly. (github.com)

Stop the purchase run when an audit write fails.

If the audit log fills or becomes unwritable after preflight, writePurchaseAuditRecord logs a warning and the CSV loop continues purchasing. Those purchases can finish without the records needed to reconcile a partial run. Return the write error to the purchase pipeline and stop further purchases; report the failure to the CLI caller. The pinned audit writer explicitly returns I/O errors, while its writability check only opens and closes the file. (github.com)

Write each CSV audit record before the purchase delay.

For every real purchase except the last in a region, processPurchaseLoop sleeps after executePurchase and before this write. If the process terminates during that delay, the purchase has no audit record. Move the write immediately after the purchase result is available, as executePurchasePipeline already does.

cristim force-pushed the fix/1609-csv-audit-records branch from 1f06b5c to 1e69035 Compare September 28, 2026 11:35
…se path

cudly --input-csv X --purchase moved real money but wrote zero audit
records: processPurchaseLoop (the CSV path's purchase loop) never
called common.WriteAuditRecord, unlike executePurchasePipeline on the
non-CSV path. The CSV path also never called CheckAuditLogWritable, so
even the pre-flight guarantee that a record could have been written
was absent. On a partial failure there was no durable,
per-recommendation record of which rows succeeded, so an operator
could only re-run the whole file -- a double purchase for the rows
that already succeeded.

Extracted writePurchaseAuditRecord out of executePurchasePipeline so
both purchase entry points (the main pipeline and processPurchaseLoop)
share it: every recommendation that reaches a purchase attempt, dry
run or real, is now recorded to cfg.AuditLog regardless of which path
produced it. processPurchaseLoop and the legacy
processRegionRecommendations path now thread a runID through so every
recommendation carries a run ID grouping it with its invocation,
matching the non-CSV path.

CheckAuditLogWritable now runs at the top of runToolFromCSV, before
the CSV is even read, matching the non-CSV path's pre-flight check.

Extracted prepareCSVPurchaseRun out of runToolFromCSV, and added a
purchaseAuditStatus helper, to keep both functions under the project's
gocyclo budget after adding the new branches.

Regression tests:
- TestRunToolFromCSV_WritesAuditRecordsOnPurchaseRun runs
  runToolFromCSV with ActualPurchase=true and invalid AWS credentials
  (so the purchase call fails the same way a real AWS error would) and
  asserts the audit log contains one record per recommendation with a
  run ID, source=cli, and a success/error status.
- TestRunToolFromCSV_ChecksAuditLogWritability asserts an unwritable
  audit-log directory is rejected before the CSV is even read.

Proved both fail on the pre-fix code: built a detached worktree of
origin/main at this branch's base (12fe838) with only the two new
test functions applied (as a standalone file, since the full test-file
diff also carries unrelated processPurchaseLoop signature-adaptation
edits that don't compile against the pre-fix signature). Both fail as
expected: no audit file is created, and the writability check never
runs.

Every existing test that reaches processPurchaseLoop now needs its own
AuditLog, or it will write real records into wherever the default
resolves to. Set toolCfg.AuditLog on every existing test call site that
reaches the purchase loop, and added a TestMain that points the shared
toolCfg.AuditLog default at a process-scoped temp file as a safety net
so a test that reaches the loop without an explicit override does not
silently create a stray cmd/cudly-audit.jsonl file in the repo working
directory.

Verification: go build ./cmd, go vet ./cmd/..., golangci-lint v2.10.1
(the exact CI pin) run --timeout=10m clean, gocyclo -over 10 clean, go
mod tidy -diff empty, go test -race -short ./... all green, and no
stray files left in the working tree after the full run.

Closes #1609
…e loop level

Rebased onto origin/main, which merged #1941 (fail-closed duplicate
check) and #1942 (fail-closed --target-coverage) after this branch's
base. #1941 changed CI's outcome for this PR's purchase-run test:
TestRunToolFromCSV_WritesAuditRecordsOnPurchaseRun drove a real
purchase through runToolFromCSV with invalid AWS credentials, relying
on the purchase call itself failing. Post-#1941, the duplicate check
now fails closed first on those same invalid credentials and refuses
the region before ever reaching a purchase attempt, correctly writing
no audit record by design -- so the test's audit file was empty and
json.Unmarshal("") failed with "unexpected end of JSON input" in CI
(the PR's base predated #1941 locally, so the old behavior still ran
there, which is why it passed locally and failed in CI).

Replaced that test with two more targeted ones:
- TestRunToolFromCSV_WritesAuditRecordsOnDryRun exercises the full
  --input-csv entry point (prepareCSVPurchaseRun's runID ->
  processPurchaseLoop -> writePurchaseAuditRecord) via a dry run, which
  #1941 does not affect (the duplicate check only warns and continues
  on a dry run).
- TestProcessPurchaseLoop_WritesAuditRecordForRealPurchase exercises
  processPurchaseLoop directly with a mocked provider.ServiceClient
  (table-driven over PurchaseCommitment success and error), the same
  technique TestProcessPurchaseLoopActualPurchase already uses to test
  real-purchase behavior without live AWS credentials --
  createServiceClient is not injectable, so this is the only way to
  observe a real purchase attempt's audit status deterministically.

Both new tests assert the audit file is non-empty before splitting it
into lines, so an empty-file bug fails loudly at that assertion rather
than making the length check pass vacuously and failing confusingly at
json.Unmarshal.

Also had purchaseSingleRec call the purchaseAuditStatus helper instead
of duplicating its two-line success/error branch inline.

Filed #2103 (p2) for a related gap surfaced while reviewing this: a
failed audit-record write mid-run currently logs a warning and lets
the purchase loop continue rather than stopping further purchases once
the audit trail can no longer be trusted -- out of scope for this fix,
which is about the audit trail existing on the CSV path at all.

Verification: go build ./cmd, go vet ./cmd/..., golangci-lint v2.10.1
(the exact CI pin) run --timeout=10m clean, gocyclo -over 10 clean, go
mod tidy -diff empty, go test -race -short ./... all green (437s), no
stray files in the working tree afterward. Proved the new dry-run CSV
test fails on the pre-#1609 code (built a worktree of origin/main,
which already includes #1941+#1942, with only that test applied): it
fails with "a purchase run through --input-csv must write an audit
log" since no audit record was written pre-fix. The processPurchaseLoop
test fails to compile against the pre-#1609 signature (which has no
runID parameter), which is itself evidence of the same gap.

Independent adversarial review at 917be03: MERGE. Three rewritten tests proven to fail on main 5036518 for the right reasons (no audit file on dry-run CSV, none on real purchase success/error, writability check missing) and pass on head. Local: build, vet, gocyclo, go test -race -short on the CSV/loop/dedup tests all pass. Build CLI red was a proxy.golang.org INTERNAL_ERROR, re-run green. Follow-ups: mid-run audit write failure is a warning only; dedup-refused recs get no audit record.
