@bstsnail, @thetutlage I've made this workaround:

Create a new file, in the same place of ace file, and name it like: ace-ci.

Put the script below, inside the ace-ci file:

#!/usr/bin/env node
const cp = require('child_process')

let ace = cp.spawn('node', ['ace', ...process.argv.slice(2)], {
  stdio: [process.stdin, process.stdout, 'pipe'],
})

let hasError = false

ace.stderr.on('data', (buffer) => {
  if (!hasError) {
    hasError = /\[[^\]]*error[^\]]*\]\s+/gi.test(buffer.toString())
  }
  process.stderr.write(buffer)
})

ace.on('close', () => {
  if (hasError) process.exit(1)
})

And now, instead use the regular ace, just use ace-ci.

Note: you still need the ace file, this script only check if the output has some error message, and fire exit code 1 in the end.

It is a bug. Will work on the fix
