📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added live filesystem synchronization with Studio for creating, deleting, moving, and renaming instances.
    • Studio changes now sync to the filesystem, including nested folders and scripts.
    • Added configurable synchronization settings, including enablement, polling mode, and polling interval.
    • Improved script container handling and recognition of initialization script filenames.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Prevented synchronization loops caused by automatically generated changes.
    • Preserved folders and descendants during moves, deletions, and cleanup.
    • Improved handling of overlapping operations and filesystem errors.

Walkthrough

The daemon now watches file and directory events, converts external changes into IPC commands, and applies those commands in Studio. It tracks inodes for move detection, suppresses daemon-originated events, updates sourcemaps, and preserves active instance directories.

Changes

Live filesystem synchronization

Layer / File(s) Summary
Configuration and mutation contracts
src/config.ts, src/ipc/messages.ts, src/ipc/server.ts, src/util/scriptFile.ts, .gitattributes
Adds live filesystem settings, create/delete/move IPC messages, server methods, init-script classification, and Luau text attributes.
Filesystem event processing
src/fs/watcher.ts, src/fs/fileWriter.ts
Adds unified file and directory events, polling, event-specific suppression, debouncing, script remapping, deletion handling, and active-directory cleanup.
Daemon filesystem synchronization
src/index.ts, src/tests/daemon.test.ts
Synchronizes external file and directory changes with Studio, detects inode-based moves, preserves descendants, updates sourcemaps, and tests creation, deletion, renaming, reparenting, and cleanup.
Studio instance mutations
plugin/sync/ReplicatedFirst/AzulCompanionPlugin/SyncSession.luau
Handles nested suppression and instance creation, deletion, and movement with parent resolution, GUID tracking, source application, rollback, and protected-container checks.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~90+ minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 59be0

The change can mishandle live filesystem renames, moves, and deletes: instances may remain under the wrong parent or be destroyed, and class-changing renames may retain the wrong Studio type. These are concrete synchronization and data-loss risks, so the PR is not ready to merge until the affected paths are corrected.

571-593: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

isScriptChildContainer performs a synchronous readdirSync for every directory event.

Each addDir and unlinkDir triggers a full read of the parent directory. During a bulk operation such as extracting an archive or checking out a branch, the daemon receives one event per directory and repeats the read for every sibling set.

The result depends only on the sibling script files, which the daemon already tracks through fileWriter.getAllMappings(). Consider resolving the answer from the existing mapping and using readdirSync only as a fallback.

cleanupDirectories walks the whole sync tree on every instance update.

handleInstanceUpdated calls this method on line 296 for each instanceUpdated message. getActiveFolderPaths iterates every tree node, and cleanupEmptyDirsRecursive performs two readdirSync calls per directory across the full tree.

A batch that contains N instance updates therefore costs N full synchronous tree walks. On a large place this blocks the event loop and delays the WebSocket handling.

Defer the cleanup to the end of a batch, as the sourcemap regeneration already does with batchNeedsSourcemapRegen.

70-74: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Consider a larger default pollInterval.

Polling at 100 ms restats every watched file ten times per second. On Windows projects with large sync directories, this raises CPU usage for the daemon's lifetime. A value between 250 ms and 500 ms usually keeps the interaction latency acceptable and reduces the scan cost. The value stays user-configurable.

Destroyed instances remain in listenerAttachedInstances.

Line 665 destroys existing, and line 739 destroys targetInst. Neither site removes the instance from self.listenerAttachedInstances. That table is keyed by Instance and is cleared only in stopSync.

Two effects follow during a long session with frequent filesystem deletes:

  • The table retains references to destroyed instances, so they are not collected.
  • The connections created in attachListeners stay in self.connections and are disconnected only in stopSync.

Clear the entry at both destroy sites.

296-369: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Add coverage for a cross-parent folder move and for names that require sanitization.

The rename test is well constructed. It uses a real fs.renameSync, so the inode match is genuine, and it reproduces the racy event order. Two gaps remain, and both map to defects flagged elsewhere in this review:

  1. The rename keeps the same parent (ReplicatedStorage/Parent to ReplicatedStorage/Renamed). A move into a different parent exercises the parentGuid argument in performFolderMove. See the comment on src/index.ts lines 754-763.
  2. MyFolder and Renamed contain no characters that sanitizeName rewrites, so no test detects the mismatch between getActiveFolderPaths and the on-disk directory names. A Folder named with : or ? would fail. See the comment on src/index.ts lines 405-417.

Do you want me to draft both test cases?

In `@plugin/sync/ReplicatedFirst/AzulCompanionPlugin/SyncSession.luau`:
- Around line 637-643: Replace boolean outbound suppression with a nesting
counter, updating all suppression enter/exit paths including createInstance,
deleteInstance, moveInstance, and the delayed patchScript restoration so nested
operations remain suppressed until all scopes finish. Make setOutboundSuppressed
defer queued outbound work instead of clearing pendingInstanceUpdates,
pendingScriptChanges, pendingScriptChangeReady, or pendingDeletes; retain
table.clear only in full-resynchronization paths such as sendFullSnapshot and
snapshot-apply handlers.
- Around line 656-657: Add warn diagnostics for every silent divergence path:
failed Instance.new calls in both creation branches, the protected-container
branch in handleFileDelete, and the nil guidMap lookup or unsuccessful move
handling in performFolderMove. Include enough context such as the requested
class, GUID, and operation so the daemon/Studio mismatch can be identified
without changing existing control flow.

In `@src/fs/fileWriter.ts`:
- Around line 350-356: Update deleteFilePathInternal so a failed fs.unlinkSync
does not return success: return false from the catch path and retain true only
after a successful deletion. Change the failure log from log.debug to log.warn,
preserving the existing error details and success behavior.

In `@src/fs/watcher.ts`:
- Around line 242-254: In src/fs/watcher.ts:242-254, update suppressNextEvent
and the suppressedEvents structure to track each path/event with a count and
expiration time; make processFileEvent remove expired entries and decrement
counts when suppressions are consumed. In src/fs/fileWriter.ts:328-338, retain
the per-ancestor suppression behavior and rely on the watcher expiry mechanism
so unmatched addDir suppressions do not persist.
- Around line 40-54: Update the Chokidar options in the watcher initialization
to include awaitWriteFinish with size-stability polling, ensuring add and change
events wait for writes to complete before processFileEvent or handleFileAdd
reads and forwards file content.

In `@src/index.ts`:
- Around line 405-417: Update getActiveFolderPaths in src/index.ts (405-417) to
sanitize every node.path segment with the shared sanitizeName transformation
before building the full path and ancestor prefixes, so
cleanupEmptyDirsRecursive matches written directories. In src/fs/fileWriter.ts
(417-463), make sanitizeName available through a small public helper for
SyncDaemon to reuse; no other direct behavior change is needed there.
- Around line 671-680: Before replacing an entry in pendingFolderDeletes,
retrieve any existing entry for key and clear its timer, then store the new
pending delete; update the scheduling flow around flushFolderDelete so stale
timers cannot remove or process the newer entry.
- Around line 488-517: Make the unsupported init-file path exit immediately
after emitting its warnings by replacing the commented-out return in the
isInitScriptFileName handling with an active return; preserve normal script
classification for non-init files.
- Around line 546-550: Guard the local cleanup after ipc.deleteInstance in the
visible deletion flow so handleDeleted({ guid }) runs only when the IPC call
reports success; preserve the existing cleanup behavior on successful sends.
Apply the same success check to the corresponding deletion logic in
flushFolderDelete.
- Around line 754-763: Update the tree.updateInstance call in reparentNode to
resolve the destination parent from the new location and pass its GUID as
parentGuid. Ensure the destination parent takes precedence so moves between
parents update both the stored parent relationship and path consistently.
- Around line 622-627: Update statInode so an fs.Stats.ino value of 0 returns
null instead of converting to the "0" key. Preserve valid inode handling,
allowing the pendingFolderDeletes lookup in the folder-move flow to fall back to
delete-and-create when the file ID is unknown.

Validate delete path segments before lookup.

A non-string segment causes FindFirstChild to error before suppression cleanup. This leaves self.suppressOutbound enabled and blocks later Studio edits from syncing. Current TypeScript producers use string[], but the WebSocket decoder does not validate message fields at runtime.

- Validate message.path segments are strings before resolving, so an invalid
  segment can't throw past setOutboundSuppressed(false) and permanently
  wedge outbound suppression
- Clear tracking state (trackedInstances, guidMap, usedGuids,

- Roll back partially-migrated children and abort the folder->script

Buffer mapped child-file deletes during a possible folder move.

If a folder rename emits unlink for a mapped child file before unlinkDir for its ancestor, Line 555 deletes the child in Studio and removes it from TreeManager immediately. The later inode match moves only the folder. A destination add then creates a new script instance, so the original GUID and Studio state are lost.

Defer mapped child-file deletion until the folder move window expires. Cancel the deferred deletes when performFolderMove claims an ancestor folder. Add a regression test for child-file unlink before source unlinkDir.

cleanupParentsIfEmpty can remove a directory that a live Folder instance still needs.

cleanupEmptyDirectories now accepts activeFolderPaths and preserves empty directories that map to tree instances. cleanupParentsIfEmpty has no equivalent guard. writeScript calls it after it removes the previous file for a moved script. If that parent directory represents a Folder instance whose only filesystem content was that script, the directory is removed while the instance still exists in Studio.

The suppressed unlinkDir prevents an instance deletion, so the result is an on-disk/DataModel mismatch until the next full snapshot rather than data loss.

Pass the active folder paths through and reuse the same check.

🛡️ Proposed fix
-  private cleanupParentsIfEmpty(startDir: string): void {
+  private cleanupParentsIfEmpty(
+    startDir: string,
+    activeFolderPaths?: Set<string>,
+  ): void {
     let current = path.resolve(startDir);
     const root = this.baseDir;
 
     while (current.startsWith(root)) {
       if (current === root) {
         break;
       }
 
+      if (activeFolderPaths) {
+        const relPath = path.relative(root, current).replace(/\\/g, "/");
+        if (activeFolderPaths.has(relPath)) {
+          break;
+        }
+      }
+
       try {

Note that writeScript would then need the caller-supplied set, or SyncDaemon can register a provider callback the same way it registers setEventSuppressor.

473-552: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

handleFileAdd accepts an inode match without checking the file kind.

statInode returns an inode for both files and directories. A buffered folder delete is keyed by the directory inode. On a filesystem that reuses inode numbers quickly, a newly created file can report the inode of the just-removed directory and claim that folder's pending delete. The folder instance is then renamed to the new file's name instead of being deleted.

The move window is short, so the risk is small. Record the entry kind with the pending delete and require a match.

The 650 ms wait is not derived from the move window it waits for.

SyncDaemon computes moveWindowMs as Math.max(500, config.fileWatchDebounce * 5). If config.fileWatchDebounce exceeds 130, the window becomes longer than 650 ms and this test reads the sourcemap before the buffered delete flushes. The same wait appears on Line 1343.

Derive the wait from the same expression, or set config.fileWatchDebounce explicitly in the test setup.

♻️ Proposed change
-    // No matching add arrives — let the buffered deletes flush for real.
-    await wait(650);
+    // No matching add arrives — let the buffered deletes flush for real.
+    await wait(Math.max(500, config.fileWatchDebounce * 5) + 150);

In `@src/index.ts`:
- Around line 899-905: Update the pending-delete cancellation in
performInstanceMove so an entry whose oldSegments equals the moved instance’s
oldSegments is treated as claimed, in addition to descendant entries matched by
segmentsUnder; clear its timer and remove it from pendingInstanceDeletes. Verify
that same-path script class changes still propagate to Studio through the
appropriate existing path, since moveInstance alone does not apply the class
change.
- Around line 846-858: Resolve the destination parent in the move flow using a
path-based lookup that does not exclude script-class nodes, so nested-script
containers receive the correct parentGuid. Add or reuse a helper near
findTrackedFolderNode that matches any non-DataModel node by path, use it for
destinationParent, and keep findTrackedFolderNode unchanged for handleDirDelete.

496-503: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Propagate the script class during inode-matched renames.

A rename from Module.luau to Module.server.luau preserves the inode, but performInstanceMove retains ModuleScript. Studio keeps the old class, and getFilePath plus remapScript continue to use the old filename mapping.

Handle class changes as replacements that preserve descendants, or add an IPC operation that changes the class while preserving the instance identity. Add regressions for ModuleScriptScript and ScriptModuleScript.
