Summary

This PR fixes issue #5301 where the tool would fail to retrieve the complete project structure when one directory contains many files (200+), causing other directories to be completely ignored.

Problem

The issue was in the function in . When the first directory alphabetically (e.g., 'a/') contained 200 or more files, the ripgrep process was being killed early, preventing it from scanning subsequent directories (e.g., 'b/').

Solution

  1. Removed early process termination: Eliminated the logic that killed the ripgrep process when reaching the 200-file limit
  2. Implemented balanced sampling: Added function to ensure fair representation across all directories
  3. Increased timeout values: Extended timeouts to allow complete directory traversal before applying limits
  4. Maintained existing limits: Preserved the 200-file limit while ensuring all directories get representation

Key Changes

  • src/services/glob/list-files.ts:
    • Removed early termination logic in (lines 405-410)
    • Added function for fair directory distribution
    • Increased from 5000ms to 10000ms
    • Updated result processing to apply balanced sampling after complete scan

Testing

  • ✅ Existing tests pass
  • ✅ Manual testing with reproduction case confirms fix works
  • ✅ Both large (200+ files) and small test cases work correctly
  • ✅ All directories now appear in results regardless of file count in other directories

Before/After

Before: Directory 'a/' with 200 files would cause directory 'b/' to be completely missing from results

After: Both directories 'a/' and 'b/' appear in results with balanced representation

Fixes #5301


Important

Fixes issue #5301 by removing early termination logic, implementing balanced sampling, and increasing timeouts in list-files.ts to ensure complete directory traversal.

  • Behavior:
    • Removed early termination logic in listFiles() in list-files.ts to prevent process from being killed when reaching 200-file limit.
    • Implemented applyBalancedSampling() to ensure fair file representation across directories.
    • Increased timeout in execRipgrep() from 10,000ms to 15,000ms to allow complete directory traversal.
  • Testing:
    • Added test-reproduce-issue.js to create a test structure with 200 files in one directory and 3 in another.
    • Added test-small-case.js for a smaller test case with 10 files in one directory and 3 in another.
    • Verified that both large and small test cases work correctly, ensuring all directories appear in results.

… many files

- Remove early process termination in execRipgrep that was causing incomplete directory traversal
- Implement balanced sampling algorithm to ensure fair representation across all directories
- Increase timeout values to allow complete directory scanning before applying limits
- Add applyBalancedSampling function to distribute file selection evenly across directories
- Maintain existing 200-file limit while ensuring all directories are represented

This fixes the issue where having 200+ files in one directory (e.g., 'a/') would cause
other directories (e.g., 'b/') to be completely ignored in the file listing results.
