What

Adds a shared Docker skip guard helper and increases the template-sync timeout to fix flaky tests under full-suite load.

Why

Issue #582 reports ~24 intermittent test failures. This PR addresses the survivable subset (tests not being removed by #675 REPL removal):

  • Docker-dependent tests (aspire-integration) had inline Docker detection duplicated across files
  • template-sync script execution timed out at 30s under parallel worker contention

Note: speed-gates.test.ts, human-journeys.test.ts, and repl-ux-fixes.test.ts are also flaky but import from shell/ which is being removed by PR #675 — those are intentionally not touched here.

Closes #677, Refs #582

How

  1. New shared helper (test/helpers/skip-guards.ts): isDockerAvailable() and dockerSkipReason() — reusable across all Docker-dependent test files
  2. Refactored aspire-integration.test.ts to use the shared helper instead of inline detection
  3. Increased timeout in template-sync.test.ts from 30s to 60s for script execution under CI load

Testing

  • No functional changes — skip guards and timeout only
  • Pre-existing build error on dev (TS2724 in personal.ts/init.ts) is unrelated to this PR

Pull request overview

Test-infrastructure stabilization aimed at reducing CI flakiness by centralizing Docker skip-guard logic and relaxing a known timeout in the template-sync execution test.

Changes:

  • Added a shared Docker skip-guard helper (isDockerAvailable, dockerSkipReason).
  • Refactored aspire-integration.test.ts to use the shared skip-guard helper.
  • Increased execSync timeout in template-sync.test.ts from 30s to 60s.

The file header comment claims this helper also covers “shell module availability” and other conditions, but this module currently only implements Docker helpers. This makes the comment misleading—either remove that claim or add the corresponding helper(s).

isDockerAvailable() currently treats docker --version as proof Docker is “available”, but that succeeds even when the Docker daemon isn’t running (common cause of the reported failures). To make the skip guard actually prevent Docker API connection errors, check daemon connectivity instead (e.g., docker info / docker ps with a short timeout) and return false when the server isn’t reachable.

@bradygaster @diberry FYI - dev branch has a pre-existing TS build error: ensurePersonalSquadDir not resolved through subpath exports in personal.ts and init.ts. Function exists in resolution.ts:351 but tsc cannot find it. This blocks CI for all PRs including this one. Happy to help debug.

Small, focused fix — shared Docker skip guard + template-sync timeout. Needs rebase onto current dev.

…nc timeout

- Create test/helpers/skip-guards.ts with reusable isDockerAvailable()
  and dockerSkipReason() functions
- Refactor aspire-integration.test.ts to use shared helper instead of
  inline Docker detection
- Increase template-sync.test.ts script execution timeout from 30s to
  60s to handle CI resource contention
