+name: openclaw-test-heap-leaks
+description: Investigate `pnpm test` memory growth, Vitest worker OOMs, and suspicious RSS increases in OpenClaw using the `scripts/test-parallel.mjs` heap snapshot tooling. Use when Codex needs to reproduce test-lane memory growth, collect repeated `.heapsnapshot` files, compare snapshots from the same worker PID, distinguish transformed-module retention from real data leaks, and fix or reduce the impact by patching cleanup logic or isolating hotspot tests.
+---
+
+# OpenClaw Test Heap Leaks
+
+Use this skill for test-memory investigations. Do not guess from RSS alone when heap snapshots are available.
+
+## Workflow
+
+1. Reproduce the failing shape first.
+   - Match the real entrypoint if possible. For Linux CI-style unit failures, start with:
+   - `pnpm canvas:a2ui:bundle && OPENCLAW_TEST_MEMORY_TRACE=1 OPENCLAW_TEST_HEAPSNAPSHOT_INTERVAL_MS=60000 OPENCLAW_TEST_HEAPSNAPSHOT_DIR=.tmp/heapsnap OPENCLAW_TEST_WORKERS=2 OPENCLAW_TEST_MAX_OLD_SPACE_SIZE_MB=6144 pnpm test`
+   - Keep `OPENCLAW_TEST_MEMORY_TRACE=1` enabled so the wrapper prints per-file RSS summaries alongside the snapshots.
+   - If the report is about a specific shard or worker budget, preserve that shape.
+
+2. Wait for repeated snapshots before concluding anything.
+   - Take at least two intervals from the same lane.
+   - Compare snapshots from the same PID inside one lane directory such as `.tmp/heapsnap/unit-fast/`.
+   - Use `scripts/heapsnapshot-delta.mjs` to compare either two files directly or the earliest/latest pair per PID in one lane directory.
+
+3. Classify the growth before choosing a fix.
+   - If growth is dominated by Vite/Vitest transformed source strings, `Module`, `system / Context`, bytecode, descriptor arrays, or property maps, treat it as retained module graph growth in long-lived workers.
+   - If growth is dominated by app objects, caches, buffers, server handles, timers, mock state, sqlite state, or similar runtime objects, treat it as a likely cleanup or lifecycle leak.
+
+4. Fix the right layer.
+   - For retained transformed-module growth in shared workers:
+   - Move hotspot files out of `unit-fast` by updating `test/fixtures/test-parallel.behavior.json`.
+   - Prefer `singletonIsolated` for files that are safe alone but inflate shared worker heaps.
+   - If the file should already have been peeled out by timings but is absent from `test/fixtures/test-timings.unit.json`, call that out explicitly. Missing timings are a scheduling blind spot.
+   - For real leaks:
+   - Patch the implicated test or runtime cleanup path.
+   - Look for missing `afterEach`/`afterAll`, module-reset gaps, retained global state, unreleased DB handles, or listeners/timers that survive the file.
+
+5. Verify with the most direct proof.
+   - Re-run the targeted lane or file with heap snapshots enabled if the suite still finishes in reasonable time.
+   - If snapshot overhead pushes tests over Vitest timeouts, fall back to the same lane without snapshots and confirm the RSS trend or OOM is reduced.
+   - For wrapper-only changes, at minimum verify the expected lanes start and the snapshot files are written.
+
+## Heuristics
+
+- Do not call everything a leak. In this repo, large `unit-fast` growth can be a worker-lifetime problem rather than an application object leak.
+- `scripts/test-parallel.mjs` and `scripts/test-parallel-memory.mjs` are the primary control points for wrapper diagnostics.
+- The lane names printed by `[test-parallel] start ...` and `[test-parallel][mem] summary ...` tell you where to focus.
+- When one or two files account for most of the delta and they are missing from timings, reducing impact by isolating them is usually the first pragmatic fix.
+- When the same retained object families grow across multiple intervals in the same worker PID, trust the snapshots over intuition.
+
+## Snapshot Comparison
+
+- Direct comparison:
+  - `node .agents/skills/openclaw-test-heap-leaks/scripts/heapsnapshot-delta.mjs before.heapsnapshot after.heapsnapshot`
+- Auto-select earliest/latest snapshots per PID within one lane:
+  - `node .agents/skills/openclaw-test-heap-leaks/scripts/heapsnapshot-delta.mjs --lane-dir .tmp/heapsnap/unit-fast`
+- Useful flags:
+  - `--top 40`
+  - `--min-kb 32`
+  - `--pid 16133`
+
+Read the top positive deltas first. Large positive growth in module-transform artifacts suggests lane isolation; large positive growth in runtime objects suggests a real leak.
+
+## Output Expectations
+
+When using this skill, report:
+
+- The exact reproduce command.
+- Which lane and PID were compared.
+- The dominant retained object families from the snapshot delta.
+- Whether the issue is a real leak or shared-worker retained module growth.
+- The concrete fix or impact-reduction patch.
+- What you verified, and what snapshot overhead prevented you from verifying.
