PR #507 added `dist/` to the terminal-bench archive include paths to fix worker crashes. However, the workflow wasn't building `dist/` before running the benchmark, causing all tasks to fail immediately with: ``` Error running agent for task <name>: Required file /home/runner/work/cmux/cmux/dist missing ``` Now runs `make build` before `make benchmark-terminal` to ensure dist/ exists and contains the compiled worker files. Verified with workflow run #19140594821 which successfully completed the modernize-fortran-build task.
Icons aren't needed for terminal-bench, and building them requires ImageMagick. Build only the essential JavaScript bundles needed for the benchmark.
The 'should not hang on commands that read stdin' test was flaky in CI: - Local: took 5073ms when expecting <5000ms (73ms over) - SSH: took 8645ms when expecting <8000ms (645ms over) Increased timeouts to provide headroom for CI runner variability: - Local: 5000ms → 6000ms (+20%) - SSH: 8000ms → 10000ms (+25%) These timeouts verify the command completes quickly (not hanging until the bash tool's 180s timeout), while accounting for CI slowness.
CI continues to show high variability: - runtimeExecuteBash local: 5073ms → 7079ms (trending up) - runtimeExecuteBash SSH: 8645ms (within new limits) - initWorkspace SSH: 12127ms when expecting <10000ms Increased timeouts to be more generous: - Local runtime: 6000ms → 10000ms (+67%) - SSH runtime: 10000ms → 15000ms (+50%) - Init queue check: 10000ms → 15000ms (+50%) These tests verify operations complete quickly (not hanging until the bash tool's 180s timeout). The large headroom accounts for CI slowness while still catching actual hangs.
Terminal-bench was failing with all tasks showing 0 input/output tokens because Bun was exiting immediately after stdin closed, even though async work (API calls) was still pending. The agentSessionCli reads the user message from stdin, then waits for stream completion. However, once stdin reaches EOF and is consumed, Bun may exit if it detects no other active handles keeping the event loop alive. Add an explicit keepalive interval that ensures the process stays alive until main() completes. This interval runs far into the future but gets cleared in the finally block once the agent session finishes. This fixes the nightly terminal-bench failures where all 80 tasks were failing with agent_timeout and 0 tokens.

Problem
Terminal-bench was failing with all tasks showing 0 input/output tokens because the agent was exiting immediately after receiving the user message, without making any API calls.
Symptoms:
agent_timeouttotal_input_tokens: 0,total_output_tokens: 0caught-upandusermessage, but nostream-deltaorstream-endeventsRoot cause:
The
agentSessionCli.tsreads the user message from stdin via a pipe:Once stdin reaches EOF and is consumed, Bun detects no other active handles keeping the event loop alive and exits the process, even though async work (API streaming) is still pending.
Solution
Add an explicit keepalive interval that ensures the process stays alive until
main()completes. The interval runs far into the future (1000 seconds) but gets cleared in the finally block once the agent session finishes.Testing
