Dogfood pinpoint: running 'claw nonexistent-command --output-format json' bypasses
the JSON envelope contract — argparse dumps human-readable usage to stderr with
exit 2, breaking the SCHEMAS.md guarantee that JSON mode returns structured output.
Problem:
$ claw nonexistent --output-format json
usage: main.py [-h] {summary,manifest,...} ...
main.py: error: argument command: invalid choice: 'nonexistent' (choose from ...)
[exit 2 — no envelope, claws must parse argparse usage messages]
Fix:
$ claw nonexistent --output-format json
{
"timestamp": "2026-04-22T11:00:29Z",
"command": "nonexistent-command",
"exit_code": 1,
"output_format": "json",
"schema_version": "1.0",
"error": {
"kind": "parse",
"operation": "argparse",
"target": "nonexistent-command",
"retryable": false,
"message": "invalid command or argument (argparse rejection)",
"hint": "run with no arguments to see available subcommands"
}
}
[exit 1, clean JSON envelope on stdout per SCHEMAS.md]
Changes:
- src/main.py:
- _wants_json_output(argv): pre-scan for --output-format json before parsing
- _emit_parse_error_envelope(argv, message): emit wrapped envelope on stdout
- main(): catch SystemExit from argparse; if JSON requested, emit envelope
instead of letting argparse's help dump go through
- tests/test_parse_error_envelope.py (new, 9 tests):
- TestParseErrorJsonEnvelope (7): unknown command, =syntax, text mode unchanged,
invalid flag, missing command, valid command unaffected, common fields
- TestParseErrorSchemaCompliance (2): error.kind='parse', retryable=false
Contract:
- text mode (default): unchanged — argparse dumps help to stderr, exits 2
- JSON mode: envelope per SCHEMAS.md, error.kind='parse', exit 1
- Parse errors always retryable=false (typo won't self-fix)
- error.kind='parse' already enumerated in SCHEMAS.md (no schema changes)
This closes a real gap: claws invoking unknown commands in JSON mode can now route
via exit code + envelope.kind='parse' instead of scraping argparse output.
Test results: 192 → 201 passing, 3 skipped unchanged, zero regression.
