[Bug]: dead_code warnings for three CLI helpers referenced only from test code #2567

Description

@1688mengdie

Summary

The upstream CI logs for main report dead-code warnings for three CLI helpers that are referenced only from test code. Evidence from GitHub Actions run 33035362609 (the same entries repeat across runs 33050974141 and 33047041028):

  • warning: function resolve_session_model_display_id is never used --> src/apps/cli/src/model_selection.rs:20:15
  • warning: method show_modes_only is never used --> src/apps/cli/src/ui/agent_selector.rs:79:19
  • warning: method show_agent_modes_only is never used --> src/apps/cli/src/ui/chat/popups.rs:268:19

Cross-checking the crate shows:

  • resolve_session_model_display_id is called only by the tests in the same file.
  • AgentSelectorState::show_modes_only is called only by tests in the same file and via ChatView::show_agent_modes_only.
  • ChatView::show_agent_modes_only is called only by the popup test in the same file.

So the production binary carries three symbols with zero production callers, and rustc reports them as dead code on every full CI run.

Root Cause Analysis

  • All three helpers were kept public to the module/supermodule for test reuse, but after refactors their production call sites disappeared.
  • rustc's dead_code lint runs on non-test builds, where #[cfg(test)] callers do not exist, so the helpers are reported as never used. The warnings are structural: every full CI run of main (runs 33035362609 / 33050974141 / 33047041028) reproduces them.

Proposed Fix

Gate each helper with #[cfg(test)] (one attribute line each, before resolve_session_model_display_id, show_modes_only, and show_agent_modes_only), so:

  • non-test builds no longer emit the dead-code warnings and no longer carry the dead symbols;
  • the unit tests keep compiling and using all three helpers unchanged.

No #[allow(dead_code)] suppression is involved.
