feat(flows): open an interactive list at a terminal

[Chase J (chajac)]

Overview of Changes

At an interactive terminal, flows list now opens a searchable table for local and remote results. Press Enter to print matches. Use --no-interactive to print directly.

Pipes, CI, --json, and --agent keep their current output. Invalid -i combinations fail before authentication or environment lookup.

Base: chajac/list-search-renderer.

Testing

Naming, lint, format, type, unused-code, and build checks passed. The full test suite passed: 2,587 tests, no failures.

bash scripts/check-naming.sh
bun run typecheck
bun run lint --max-warnings 0
bun run format:check
bun run knip
bun run test
bun run build

Command tests cover local and remote lists, filtering, resize before Enter, --no-interactive, noninteractive output, and early rejection of invalid -i combinations.

Checklist

• Changes follow the code style of this project
• Self-review completed
• Tests added/updated (or not applicable)

Walkthrough

qawolf flows list now defaults to interactive flow-table search on supported human terminals. Users can search by flow name, path, target, environment, or tag. --no-interactive selects printed output, while unsupported explicit --interactive requests fail before environment resolution or authentication. Local and remote listings share terminal validation, filtering, and width-aware rendering. Documentation, messages, and tests cover the new behavior.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 46387

Remote interactive listings display “Flows” rather than “Remote Flows,” making their source less clear. This is localized and safe to merge with owner awareness, but should be corrected.

- Line 26: Update filterFlows to accept a caller-provided title and use it in
its ui.intro call instead of always using flowsMessages.title. Ensure
flowsListRemote passes flowsMessages.remoteTitle for remote interactive results,
and update listRemote.interactive.test.ts to assert the remote title.
