This Pull Request addresses an issue where the output of commands
executed in the raw-exec utility was being truncated due to restrictive
limits on the number of lines and bytes collected. The truncation caused
the message [Output truncated: too many lines or bytes] to appear when
processing large outputs, which could hinder the functionality of the
CLI.
Changes Made
Increased the maximum output limits in the
[createTruncatingCollector](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/575)
utility:
Bytes: Increased from 10 KB to 100 KB.
Lines: Increased from 256 lines to 1024 lines.
Installed the @types/node package to resolve missing type definitions
for [NodeJS](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/575) and
[Buffer](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/575).
Verified and fixed any related errors in the
[createTruncatingCollector](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/575)
implementation.
Issue Solved:
This PR ensures that larger outputs can be processed without truncation,
improving the usability of the CLI for commands that generate extensive
output. https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/509

I suspect this was done originally so that `execForSandbox()` had a
consistent signature for both the `SandboxType.NONE` and
`SandboxType.MACOS_SEATBELT` cases, but that is not really necessary and
turns out to make the upcoming Landlock support a bit more complicated
to implement, so I had Codex remove it and clean up the call sites.
This PR improves the reliability of `raw-exec-process-group.test`,
addressing [#415](https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/415)
Before: The test would fail sporadically in CI because it checked for
process termination immediately after abort, without accounting for the
time it takes for processes to fully terminate.
Now: We've added a robust `ensureProcessGone` helper that:
- Polls the process status with a 500ms timeout
- Retries every 50ms if the process is still alive
- Provides clear error messages if termination takes too long
We now wait for the child process to fully exit after sending abort
signals, instead of assuming instant death, fixing flakiness caused by
asynchronous process termination.
Changes:
- Added `ensureProcessGone` helper function with retry logic
- Improved error handling and timeout management
See [this bash
demo](https://gist.github.com/jdocherty/a84dbca2fbf7b47e5f95c87a07034ae8)
for a minimal reproduction of why process death is asynchronous and why
the test needs to retry after aborting.
