🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
One dead path leaks a global reference.
If the shared entry for ownership.key was replaced (stale destroyed entry deleted in acquire, then a new finder registered under the same key), shared.finder !== finder returns early. The old finder is never destroyed here, and no further owner can trigger it. Small window, but the finder object stays alive with native resources. Destroy the finder when the shared entry no longer points at it.

🧩 Analysis chain
🌐 Web query:
Does bun:test expect().rejects require await to assert?
💡 Result:
Yes, when using expect(...).rejects in bun:test, you must use await to correctly assert that a promise rejects [1]. While early versions of Bun had issues with this implementation [2], the current official documentation and testing patterns confirm that you should await the expectation [1]. For example, when handling asynchronous errors, the recommended pattern is: test("should handle async errors", async => { await expect(async => { await fetchUser("invalid-id"); }).rejects.toThrow("User not found"); }); In this pattern, the await ensures that the test runner waits for the asynchronous operation (the function passed to expect) to complete and reject before finalizing the assertion [1]. If you do not use await, the test may complete before the rejection occurs, potentially causing the test to pass incorrectly or fail to catch the error.

expect(pending).rejects.toThrow(...) returns a promise. Without await, the test does not wait for the assertion. Replace both lines with:

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
The microtask spin loop can hang the test runner.
while (createCalls.length === 0) await Promise.resolve(); only drains microtasks. If create ever needs a timer or IO to run, the loop starves the macrotask queue, and the bun test timeout timer never fires. The process hangs instead of failing. Yield with a macrotask instead.
💚 Suggested fix
- while (createCalls.length === 0) await Promise.resolve();
+ const deadline = Date.now() + 5_000;
+ while (createCalls.length === 0) {
+ if (Date.now() > deadline) throw new Error("finder creation never started");
+ await new Promise((r) => setTimeout(r, 1));

Summary
FileFinderinstances across identical in-process pi sessionsWhy
pi-subagentscreates and retains childAgentSessions in the parent Pi process. Each child binds default extensions, sopi-fffpreviously started a separate native watcher/indexer for every child even when all sessions used the same workspace and configuration.In a long-running session with 42
Agentcalls this accumulated roughly 58 watcher sets, 274 threads, and 8 GB RSS.The shared pool is keyed by normalized workspace, database paths, and scan flags. Different workspaces/worktrees/configurations still receive independent finders.
