Stacked on #1107 and #1109 (the latter is what this suite found).

The monorepo develops against the Nuxt 5 nightly, so nothing in the default CI path ran DevTools on Nuxt 4 — the one Nuxt line stable v4 is meant to reach first — and the manual ecosystem workflow had been failing since its playground scripts were renamed in #1048.

CI

  • New nuxt4-smoke workflow on every push/PR: build, pack the tarballs, install into the sealed Nuxt 4 playground, typecheck, build, then check-dev-boot.mjs boots nuxt dev and waits until both the app and /__nuxt_devtools__/client/ answer. DevTools no-ops outside dev, so a green build alone proves nothing about it.
  • ecosystem-playground workflow: fixed script names, boots both the Nuxt 4 and Nuxt 5 playgrounds, and now runs weekly in addition to workflow_dispatch.

Coverage

  • playgrounds-ecosystem/modules/legacy-kit-v3/: a module written against the published @nuxt/devtools-kit@3.4.2. That is what the ecosystem actually ships — @nuxt/fonts, @nuxt/scripts, @nuxt/eslint, @nuxt/hints and @nuxt/a11y all depend on ^3.2; only compodium and nuxtseo pin v4 alphas — so the v4 shims are the common path for Nuxt 4 users, not the exception. The suite asserts its tab renders, the v3 iframe client connects with client.host reaching the app, extendServerRpc/extendClientRpc round-trip, a broadcast arrives, and the startSubprocess session lands in the Terminals dock.
  • The Playwright suite now covers all eight modules (it skipped nuxt-og-image, @nuxt/scripts, @nuxt/fonts before). 9/9 pass locally against the built client on Nuxt 4.5.2.

Playground hygiene

Created with the help of an agent.

…rver boots

Since a1fcef8 the catalog resolves nitro 3.0.260903-beta while the pinned
Nuxt nightly still depended on 3.0.260610-beta. With two Nitro copies
installed, Nuxt's nitro:dev-service-proxy fails to load nitro/h3 from the
second one and every dev server in the repo 500s, which is why e2e has
hung and been cancelled on every run since.

Move to the current Nuxt nightly, which depends on nitro 260903 itself,
and drop the 260610 patch: 260903 already skips the nitro build for static
generates upstream.
Its nuxi prepare now declares every #build template as an ambient module
and resolves #imports for real, so the ts-expect-error on the settings
import becomes unused and the client plugin's inferred type cycles
through the composables it calls.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes update Nitro runtime configuration for two configuration shapes and add tests for both. The ecosystem playground gains a DevTools Kit v3 module fixture with an iframe client, RPC behavior, and a subprocess terminal. New smoke checks verify that playground apps and embedded DevTools clients boot. CI workflows now run Nuxt playground checks on scheduled, push, and pull request events. The changes also update workspace versions and plugin typing.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to ba9d2

The compatibility checks are mergeable with bounded follow-up, but catalog references and the boot script should be corrected so dependency versions stay centralized and local smoke results reliably reflect the playground being started.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to ba9d2

The new pull-request job relies on inherited token permissions, but checkout does not retain credentials and build steps receive no explicit repository token. The legacy module is limited to a development playground with a fixed subprocess command. Remaining uncertainty concerns effective CI authority and containment of authentication-bypassing smoke servers, not demonstrated production exposure.

Retained concerns

  • Low · security · observed: The new pull-request workflow executes checked-out install, build and dev-server code without declaring a token-permission ceiling. Its authority therefore depends on repository or organization defaults rather than a workflow-local least-privilege invariant. Checkout credential persistence is disabled and no token is explicitly passed to these commands; attacker access to the token or repository-write capability is not demonstrated.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The demonstrated new execution scope is the CI job and development playground. If inherited repository credentials became accessible, exposure would depend on that job’s effective token permissions; the evidence does not establish those permissions or credential access. The fixture supplies no attacker-selected subprocess command and adds no demonstrated production or cross-tenant authority.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • observed — The retained Security finding concerns absent explicit workflow permissions in a newly added PR execution path. PR-controlled code reaches install, build and dev-server execution, but the inspected workflow does not deliver a token to those commands and disables persisted checkout credentials. A complete credential-to-repository-write attack path is therefore not established.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The host/client navigation channel targets the current origin and checks incoming origin, parent-window identity and protocol identifiers. These are controls on that navigation channel, not proof of the published Kit v3 iframe transport’s authentication behavior.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — The existing terminal bridge provides noninteractive output and final status rather than browser restart or terminate authority. It buffers pre-connection output and exits, replays output before completion, closes streams idempotently, and replaces or removes sessions on registration and removal events. These host mechanisms do not establish the unavailable published v3 subprocess implementation’s complete failure and recovery behavior.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Declare an explicit read-only token-permission ceiling for the compatibility workflow so its authority does not drift with repository or organization defaults.
  • proposed — Keep authentication-bypassing smoke servers explicitly loopback-bound and disposable, and make cleanup idempotent across interruption and already-exited process groups. This would strengthen containment without implying that remote exposure or a surviving insecure server was demonstrated.

Use pnpm catalog references for both dependency versions. Both changed manifests declare raw ranges instead of using the central catalog.

  • playgrounds-ecosystem/modules/legacy-kit-v3/package.json#L10-L10: add @nuxt/devtools-kit to an appropriate catalog and reference it with catalog:<name>.
  • playgrounds-ecosystem/modules/package.json#L26-L26: reference the updated Nuxt entry in playgrounds-ecosystem/modules/pnpm-workspace.yaml.

As per coding guidelines, “When adding a dependency, reference it as catalog:<name> in the package's package.json rather than pinning a raw version.”

🌐 Web query:

Nuxt 4.5.1 nuxi dev occupied port fallback auto increment port listhen official source

💡 Result:

Yes—**the Nuxt 4.5.1 dev server should fall back to another port if the requested port is occupied**, because Nuxt’s dev server uses Listhen, which documents automatic port fallback via `get-port-please`. ([github.com](https://github.com/unjs/listhen?utm_source=openai))

For Nuxt 4.5.1 specifically, the available Nuxt docs I found don’t establish the exact bundled Listhen version or behavior for that patch. The current `nuxt dev` docs describe the port option and passing options through to Listhen, but are labeled v4.5.2—not 4.5.1. ([nuxt.com](https://nuxt.com/docs/4.x/api/commands/dev?utm_source=openai))

If you need it to **fail instead of switching ports**, current Nuxt CLI docs list `--strictPort`; that page is also for a newer CLI, so check whether your installed 4.5.1 CLI supports it. ([github.com](https://github.com/nuxt/cli/blob/main/docs/dev.md?utm_source=openai))

Reject an occupied PORT before starting Nuxt.

On the documented local invocation, an existing server can return 200 for both paths while the spawned Nuxt child has not bound PORT. waitFor() checks server.exitCode only before each fetch and does not verify which process served the response. The script can therefore report a green smoke result for the wrong server.

Ignore ESRCH when signaling an exited process group.

When waitFor detects an early server exit, the catch block prints the error and captured output before finally runs. If the process group is already gone, process.kill throws ESRCH. That does not erase the printed diagnostic, but it adds an uncaught stack trace and skips the remaining cleanup.

build:client re-stubbed @nuxt/devtools through dev:prepare after turbo
had already built it, so a root pnpm build left a jiti stub in dist. The
published package was unaffected (prepack builds only the module), but
everything packing after a root build shipped the stub. The client only
needs the built module for types, which turbo already orders first.

Also use ts-ignore for the #build/devtools/settings import: whether nuxi
prepare declares it depends on the setup, so ts-expect-error fails in one
environment or the other.
…undle

The nitro:config hook set noExternals to a list whenever the key was
absent. That is the Nitro v3 spelling; on Nitro v2 (nitropack, every
Nuxt 4 app) noExternals is a boolean, so a non-empty array is truthy and
Nitro bundles the whole dependency graph into the dev server. Small apps
only got slower; the ecosystem playground failed outright (nuxt-og-image
dragging playwright in, vite-node's debug shim crashing on enable(true)).

Branch on the config shape instead: externals.inline when the config has
externals (v2), the noExternals list otherwise (v3).
…d kit v3

The monorepo develops against the Nuxt 5 nightly, so nothing in the
default CI path ran DevTools on Nuxt 4, and the manual ecosystem workflow
had been broken since its playground scripts were renamed.

- nuxt4-smoke workflow on every push/PR: pack, install into the sealed
  Nuxt 4 playground, typecheck, build, and boot the dev server until the
  app and the DevTools client answer (check-dev-boot.mjs). DevTools only
  does anything in dev, so a green build alone proves nothing.
- Ecosystem workflow fixed (script names), boots both playgrounds, and
  runs weekly.
- legacy-kit-v3: a module on the published @nuxt/devtools-kit 3.4.2, which
  is what @nuxt/fonts, scripts, eslint, hints and a11y actually ship. The
  suite asserts its tab, v3 iframe client, host access, extendServerRpc
  round trip, broadcast and startSubprocess terminal all work through the
  v4 shims. It also now covers nuxt-og-image, @nuxt/scripts and @nuxt/fonts.
- Playgrounds moved off the broken pnpm@11.13.0 pin and the stale Vite
  8.0 override; findings recorded in REPORTS.md (Addendum 4).
