feat(stop): stop the whole Compose project, not just the app service - #4
Merged

Conversation
A compose-based dev container is one service of a project. Stopping only it left the database, cache, and gateway running after the user asked to stop the dev container — six containers in `double-holo-ui`, of which one went down. The Dev Container spec agrees: `shutdownAction` defaults to `stopCompose` for compose configs, which is what VS Code does. Membership comes from the container's own `com.docker.compose.project` label rather than from devcontainer.json. Compose writes that label at creation and finds its own containers by it, so the labels are the authority; parsing the config would mean re-deriving a project name Compose already computed, and this plugin does not re-implement devcontainer.json. Plain `docker stop <id>...` rather than `docker compose stop`: preflight verifies `docker` and nothing else, `docker compose` is a separate plugin that may be absent, and discovery already hands us the ids. The dev container is stopped first — it is the dependent holding connections to the database, so that is the graceful direction, the same reason Compose shuts a project down in reverse dependency order. Deeper ordering via `depends_on` is not attempted: in a dev container project every other service is a dependency of the dev container. The confirmation names every container instead of counting them. It is the only thing between a mis-keyed binding and a stopped database, so the user has to be able to see the database in the list before committing. A single-container repo renders exactly as before — nothing about it changed, so nothing about its prompt should. Partial stops are not reported as success. `docker stop` echoes what it stopped, so anything missing from that list is named in the error, unless docker reported it already gone. Telling the user a project is down while its database is running is the same lie-by-omission the discovery fix removed.
Review of the compose-stop change found six ways it still said more than it knew. The headline one: `docker stop a b c` stops the named containers in *parallel* — argument order only controls the order results print. Measured on docker 29.7.2 with two SIGTERM-ignoring containers, `docker stop a b` took 12.9s, one grace window rather than two. So the "dev container stops first" the code comment, commit message, and spec amendment all claimed was never delivered: postgres got SIGTERM at the same instant as the app holding connections to it. The dev container now gets its own `docker stop` call and is waited on. That also fixes the budget, which scaled 30s per container on the same wrong assumption and would hang a ten-service stop for 300s. An exited dev container no longer hides a running project. The app can exit on its own — crash, OOM, a stop from another pane — while postgres and redis keep running, and stop printed "no running dev container" and exited 0. That is the same false absence this work exists to remove, arrived at from the other side. Discovery already lists exited containers and a stopped container keeps its project label, so the evidence was in hand and discarded. Whether the stop worked is now asked of docker rather than read out of `docker stop`'s output. Deciding whether someone's database is down by pattern-matching English for "no such container" was fragile in a place where being wrong is expensive, and on timeout the CLI is killed, so its output says nothing about what landed — the most likely partial-stop path was the one that reported the least. A follow-up `docker ps` filtered to the target ids answers directly. Also: `docker compose run` containers are left alone, matching `docker compose stop`, so a `compose run --rm app pytest` in another pane survives; a dev container removed between discovery and stop is treated as already gone rather than failing, as it was before this feature; the synthetic row for a dev container missing from the listing carries its name, since a blank row in the safety prompt hides the one container the user actually named; and the ContainersNotStopped hint no longer asserts that the rest of the project stopped, which is false whenever docker never reached the daemon at all.

Review catch, filed as a doc nit but really a behavior one. `orphaned_members` returns survivors in docker's order — there is no running dev container to lead with — but `run_stop` applied `stop_set`'s "first element leads" split to it either way. That paid a full extra SIGTERM grace window to sequence one arbitrary service ahead of the others, for no ordering benefit at all. The phase split now happens only when the dev container really is first, and the contract is stated on `orphaned_members` so the next caller does not assume otherwise. Also renames `ContainersNotStopped::ids`, which `verify_stopped` fills with container *names*. `docker stop` accepts either, so nothing behaved wrongly, but the field and its hint both said id. The orphan test polled for the app container to exit and then continued regardless, so a slow fixture would have surfaced as a discovery bug rather than a timeout; it asserts now. The two project fixtures' cleanup struct and member-spawning helper were duplicated verbatim and are now shared.

The behavior change
prefix+Son a Compose-based Dev Container stopped only the service the pane runs in. Fordouble-holo-uithat meant one of six containers went down — postgres, redis, gotrue, supabase-gateway, and inbucket kept running after the user asked to stop the Dev Container.It now stops the whole Compose project. That is what
devcontainer.json's defaultshutdownActionofstopComposeasks for, and what VS Code does on disconnect. (Worth noting:double-holo-uinever setsshutdownAction— it getsstopComposeby spec default.wanderersets it explicitly.)This expands what one keystroke destroys, from one container to six. The confirmation is what stands between a mis-key and a stopped database, so it names every target rather than counting them:
A single-container repo renders exactly as before — nothing about it changed, so nothing about its prompt should.
How membership is determined
From the container's own
com.docker.compose.projectlabel. Compose writes it at creation and finds its own containers by it, so the labels are the authority. Deriving the project name fromdevcontainer.jsonwas rejected for the same reasonremoteEnvwas: it would re-implement a value another tool already computed, and be wrong wherever the two disagree.docker stop <id>...rather thandocker compose stop— preflight verifiesdockerand nothing else,docker composeis a separate plugin that may be absent or v1, and discovery already produced the ids.What review caught (second commit)
docker stop a b cstops in parallel. Argument order only controls the order results print. Measured on docker 29.7.2 with two SIGTERM-ignoring containers:docker stop a btook 12.9s, one grace window rather than two. The first commit's "dev container stops first" — in the code comment, the commit message, and the spec amendment — was a guarantee the code never delivered; the database got SIGTERM at the same instant as the app holding connections to it. The dev container now gets its owndocker stopcall and is waited on. This also fixes the budget, which scaled 30s per container on the same wrong assumption and would have hung a ten-service stop for 300s against a stop that takes ~12s.An exited dev container hid a running project. If the app container exits on its own — crash, OOM kill, a stop from another pane — while postgres and redis keep running, stop printed
no running dev containerand exited 0. That is the same false absence the discovery fix in #3 removed, arrived at from the other side, and it contradicted the README this PR adds.discover::listalready uses-aand a stopped container keeps its project label, so the evidence was in hand and discarded.Verification now asks docker instead of reading prose. Whether a container stopped was decided by scanning
docker stop's stdout and pattern-matching stderr for "no such container" — inferring the world from a CLI's English, where being wrong means telling someone their database is down while it serves. Worse, on timeout the CLI is killed and its output says nothing about what landed, so the most likely partial-stop path reported the least. A follow-updocker psfiltered to exactly the target ids answers directly.Also from review:
docker compose runcontainers carry the project label butoneoff=True, anddocker compose stopleaves them alone. We would have killed acompose run --rm app pytestsomeone was watching in another pane. Docker has no negated label filter, so the row is dropped after parsing — and a row whose oneoff label is missing is kept, since an absent label is not a claim.ContainersNotStoppedhint no longer asserts "the rest of the project stopped" — false whenever docker never reached the daemon, in which case every id lands in that error and nothing stopped.Tests
