fix(rs): gate doc output-name collisions instead of hitting them in CI - #3157
Conversation
#3113 fixed one pair of targets rendering to the same `target/doc/<name>` (libmoq's staticlib and moq-cli's binary, both `moq`). A workspace-wide doc build shows there was a second: `moq-token`'s library and `moq-token-cli`'s binary both render to `target/doc/moq_token`. Both are the same failure. Two rustdoc processes in one `cargo doc` race to clean the shared directory, so the deterministic collision warning escalates to `error: failed to remove directory` depending on which gets there first, and `RUSTDOCFLAGS="-D warnings"` does not catch it because cargo emits the collision rather than rustdoc. The doc pass is diff-scoped, so it lands on whichever unrelated PR happens to select both crates and reads as a flake. Fixing them one at a time as they surface is the wrong shape, so add `just rs _doc-names` to `check`. It groups every documented lib/bin target by the directory it renders to and fails on any group above one, naming both sides and the fix. It reads `.doc` from `cargo metadata`, so a resolved pair stays resolved, and it needs no compilation at all, which is why it can sit in the PR gate rather than nightly. It would have caught the original pair before #3091 and #3066 ever failed. Resolve the new pair the same way as the first: `moq-token` is the published library whose docs.rs page is linked from `doc/lib/rs/`, while nothing links the binary's and a bin target has no public API to render. Verified by reverting each `doc = false` in turn: the gate reports that pair and exits 1. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

The collision query grouped every doc-enabled lib and bin target, but cargo does not document all of them. A binary whose name matches a library in its own package is skipped, and only the library is documented, so the pair never races for the directory. Both targets still report `doc: true` in metadata, so the query rejected the conventional `src/lib.rs` + `src/main.rs` layout. Verified against cargo rather than assumed: a scratch package with both files reports two `doc: true` targets and `cargo doc` emits no collision. Skip a bin whose name matches a lib in the same package. Names are compared as spelled, not folded, because cargo's suppression is name equality: a `foo_bar` lib beside a `foo-bar` bin is not suppressed and does collide, so it has to stay reportable. The query moves to `rs/scripts/doc-names.jq` and `_doc-names` takes an optional metadata file, so `_doc-names-test` can drive it with synthetic workspaces and cover the direction that matters: the same-package pair must pass, a cross-package pair must fail, and `doc = false` must resolve it. It runs in `check` beside `_select-test` and `_publish-test`. Found by Codex review (medium). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

When an [[example]], [[test]], or [[bench]] target explicitly sets doc = true, the ordinary cargo doc --workspace --no-deps invocation schedules rustdoc for it. In scratch workspaces on Cargo 1.89, Cargo reported that the library had “the same output filename as the example target,” with integration-test and bench targets behaving identically. This filter discards all three kinds, so _doc-names passes even though the immediately following CI doc step can hit the exact collision and cleanup race this gate is intended to prevent. Include every doc-enabled target kind that Cargo schedules, not only libraries and binaries. (Written by GPT-5.6 Sol)

The same-package suppression compared target names as spelled, on the assumption that cargo only skips a binary whose name matches its library exactly. It does not: cargo folds dashes to underscores first, so a `foo_bar` library beside a `foo-bar` binary is suppressed as well, and only the library is documented. Checked against cargo 1.95.0 with a scratch package rather than reasoned about: it emits no collision and generates a single `foo_bar` page. The previous comment asserted the opposite, so the query reported a pair cargo never documents together, which is a false positive on the exact layout the suppression exists for. Fold before comparing, and cover it: a same-package `foo_bar`/`foo-bar` pair must pass. Reverting to the as-spelled comparison now fails that fixture, which the existing ones did not catch.

When a documented binary declares required-features that are not enabled, Cargo skips that target, but this filter includes it solely because .doc is true. With Cargo 1.95, a default-feature cargo doc --workspace --no-deps documented only the colliding library while this gate rejected the same scratch workspace, so adding a feature-gated binary can make every CI check fail for a collision that cannot occur. Account for Cargo's required-features target selection, or derive the candidates from the actual doc build's enabled targets. (Written by GPT-5.6 Sol)

Follow-up to #3113, which fixed one instance of a problem that turned out to have another.
There was a second collision
A workspace-wide doc build finds two pairs of targets rendering to the same
target/doc/<name>, not one:Both are the same failure. Two rustdoc processes within a single
cargo docrace to clean the shared directory, so the deterministic collision warning escalates toerror: failed to remove directorydepending on which gets there first.RUSTDOCFLAGS="-D warnings"does not catch it, because cargo emits the collision rather than rustdoc. And sincejust check's doc pass is diff-scoped, it fires on whichever unrelated PR happens to select both crates, which is why it kept reading as a flake (#3091, #3066).The gate, not another one-off
Fixing these one at a time as they surface is the wrong shape, so
checkgainsjust rs _doc-names. It groups every documented lib/bin target by the directory it renders to and fails on any group larger than one, naming both sides and the remedy:Two properties make it worth putting in the PR gate rather than nightly:
.docfromcargo metadata, so a pair resolved withdoc = falsestays resolved and does not need re-suppressing.cargo metadatacall and ajqexpression.It would have caught the original pair instantly, before #3091 and #3066 ever failed.
Verified by reverting each
doc = falsein turn: the gate reports that pair and exits 1. With both in place it passes, andcargo doc -p moq-token -p moq-token-cli -p libmoq -p moq-cliemits zero collision warnings while still generating bothtarget/doc/moqandtarget/doc/moq_token.Resolving the new pair
Same reasoning as #3113:
moq-tokenis the published library whose docs.rs page is linked fromdoc/lib/rs/crate/moq-token.mdanddoc/lib/rs/index.md, whereas nothing linksdocs.rs/moq-token-cliand a bin target has no public API to render. Sodoc = falsegoes on the binary.moq-token-cli's own library target (moq_token_cli) is untouched and still documented.What this does not cover
There is a second, narrower blind spot that this gate does not close, found while investigating: because cargo unifies features per crate, a crate's doc build can succeed under
--workspaceand fail when selected alone, since the selection changes which features are on. That is how themdnsintra-doc link in #3152 broke every branch touchingmoq-tokiowhile nightly stayed green.Catching that class needs a per-crate doc invocation for every package, which is a real nightly cost rather than a metadata query, so it is deliberately left out here. Worth its own decision.

Review follow-ups
Codex's adversarial review found a false-positive path, and chasing it turned up a real bug in the query.
It observed that cargo skips a binary whose name matches a library in its own package, so grouping every
doc: truetarget would reject the conventionalsrc/lib.rs+src/main.rslayout. Confirmed against cargo with a scratch package: both targets reportdoc: true, andcargo docemits no collision.The review believed the suppression compares names as spelled, so a
foo_barlib beside afoo-barbin would still collide. Testing that against the repo's pinned cargo 1.95.0 showed the opposite: cargo folds dashes to underscores first and suppresses that pair too, generating a single page. The as-spelled comparison in the first fix was therefore a false positive on the very layout the suppression exists for, with a comment asserting the wrong rule. Corrected in e7ec155, and Codex withdrew the claim on re-review.The query now lives in
rs/scripts/doc-names.jqand_doc-namestakes an optional metadata file, so_doc-names-testdrives it with synthetic workspaces covering all four directions: same-package identical names pass, same-package folded names pass, a cross-package pair fails, anddoc = falseresolves it. It runs incheckbeside_select-testand_publish-test. Reverting either the suppression or the folding fails a fixture.
