Summary

  • Pyright strict mode enabled with 0 errors across all non-test source files
  • Added missing type annotations to 30+ files (parameter types, generic type arguments, NamedTuple conversion)
  • Disabled reportUnknown* family rules — these produce cascading noise from untyped third-party dependencies (bottle, pexpect, tblib), not from project code
  • Disabled reportMissingTypeStubs and reportUnusedImport (conflicts with __init__.py re-export pattern)

What strict mode catches that basic didn't

Rule What it enforces
reportMissingParameterType All function params must have type annotations
reportMissingTypeArgument Generic classes need explicit type args (list[str], not list)
reportPrivateUsage No cross-class _protected access (ignored where intentional)
reportUnnecessaryComparison Dead-code conditions (ignored for defensive checks)
reportIncompatibleMethodOverride Override signatures must match base class

Deferred rules (to enable later with type stubs)

The reportUnknown* family (900+ errors) cascades from three untyped deps. These will be re-enabled as stubs become available:

  • bottle — no official type stubs
  • pexpect — no official type stubs
  • tblib — no official type stubs

Test plan

  • pyright — 0 errors in strict mode
  • ruff check — all checks passed
  • ruff format --check — all formatted
  • 425 Python unit tests pass
  • CI passes

Closes #291

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores
    • Enhanced type annotations throughout the codebase for improved code quality and type safety. Updated Pyright configuration to strict type checking mode with targeted diagnostics disabled. No runtime behavior changes.

nitrobass24 and others added 2 commits March 25, 2026 12:29
Switch pyrightconfig.json to strict mode with 0 errors. Changes:

- Add missing parameter type annotations across 30+ files
- Add type arguments to generic classes (Queue, list, dict, Callable, etc.)
- Convert namedtuple to NamedTuple with typed fields (job_status.py)
- Add `from __future__ import annotations` where runtime subscript
  of multiprocessing.Queue would fail
- Add type: ignore comments for intentional patterns:
  - reportPrivateUsage: cross-class access in controller
  - reportUnusedFunction: Bottle plugin decorators in security.py
  - reportUnnecessaryComparison: defensive None checks
- Disable reportUnknown* family (cascading noise from untyped deps:
  bottle, pexpect, tblib) and reportMissingTypeStubs — to be
  re-enabled incrementally as type stubs are added
- Disable reportUnusedImport (conflicts with __init__.py re-exports)

Closes #291

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This PR comprehensively strengthens type annotations across the Python codebase to enable Pyright strict mode. Changes include adding from __future__ import annotations imports, adding explicit type parameters to generic types (e.g., Queue[ExceptionWrapper]), annotating function parameters and return types, upgrading the Pyright configuration from basic to strict mode, and converting legacy patterns to modern typing constructs.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
Common module type refinements
src/python/common/app_process.py, config.py, context.py, multiprocessing_logger.py, path_pairs_config.py, types.py
Strengthened type annotations: generic queues now include element types (Queue[ExceptionWrapper], Queue[logging.LogRecord]), function parameters and returns now explicitly typed (Callable[..., Any], dict[str, str]), and overrides decorator updated with full signature typing.
Controller module typing
src/python/controller/auto_queue.py, controller.py, controller_persist.py, notifier.py
Enhanced type safety in controller internals: __eq__ methods now properly type other: object with NotImplemented guards, queue element types tightened, exclude-pattern filtering and state updates now explicitly annotated, WebhookNotifier.__init__ requires typed Config parameter.
Extract and Validate submodules
src/python/controller/extract/dispatch.py, extract.py, extract_process.py, src/python/controller/validate/validate_process.py
Type-parameterized queue elements and method signatures: ExtractProcess queues now declare Queue[ExtractCompletedResult] and Queue[ExtractFailedResult], ExtractStatus.__eq__ and ValidateStatus.__eq__ explicitly typed, subprocess.CompletedProcess[str] replaces unparameterized version, Sshcp imported under TYPE_CHECKING.
Model module equality and hashing
src/python/model/diff.py, file.py
Updated __eq__ method signatures to __eq__(self, other: object) -> bool; ModelFile.__eq__ now returns NotImplemented for non-ModelFile operands to follow Python equality protocol.
LFTP module modernization
src/python/lftp/job_status.py, lftp.py
Replaced namedtuple subclass with typing.NamedTuple for TransferState with explicit field type annotations; updated LftpJobStatus.__eq__ signature; enhanced decorator wrapper typing in with_check_process.
System module file operations
src/python/system/file.py, scanner.py, src/python/scan_fs.py
Refined SystemFile and related helpers: to_dict() returns dict[str, Any], from_dict() accepts parameterized dict, __eq__ properly typed; PseudoDirEntry and SystemScanner now use os.DirEntry[str] and os.stat_result types.
Web module handlers and utilities
src/python/web/handler/logs.py, handler/path_pairs.py, handler/stream_log.py, security.py, serialize/serialize_model.py, web_app.py, web_app_job.py
Unified type annotations across web layer: log/path-pair entries now use dict[str, str] and `dict[str, str
Utilities and configuration
src/python/seedsync.py, ssh/sshcp.py, src/python/pyrightconfig.json
_parse_args now returns argparse.Namespace, Pyright switched from basic to strict mode with diagnostic exceptions for unused imports and unknown types, host is None check in Sshcp.__init__ includes type-ignore comment.

🐰 A rabbit hops through types so clear,
Each annotation we now hold dear,
From basic mode to strict we ascend,
Type safety is our faithful friend,
With Pyright's gaze, no bugs we fear!

ValidateStatus.__eq__ must return NotImplemented for non-matching types instead of raising.

Direct other.__dict__ dereference without type checking violates Python's equality contract. Comparing ValidateStatus objects with unrelated types (e.g., int, str) raises AttributeError instead of gracefully handling the type mismatch.

Proposed fix

-    return self.__dict__ == other.__dict__
+    if not isinstance(other, ValidateStatus):

Missing type guard causes AttributeError for non-ModelDiff comparisons.

Accessing other.__dict__ without an isinstance check will raise AttributeError when comparing against primitives or objects using __slots__ (e.g., ModelDiff(...) == None or ModelDiff(...) == 5).

The correct pattern (already used in AutoQueuePattern.__eq__ in this PR) is to return NotImplemented for incompatible types:

__eq__ may raise AttributeError for non-SystemFile comparisons.

The type annotation other: object is correct, but the implementation accesses other.__dict__ without checking if other is a SystemFile. Comparing with incompatible types (e.g., None, int) will raise AttributeError instead of returning False.
