pingcap TiDB Bazel Prepare Gate
Overview
Use this skill before build/test commands when you are unsure whether make bazel_prepare is required.
Policy source: AGENTS.md -> Build Flow -> When make bazel_prepare is required.
In normal coding loops, skip this skill unless one of the decision-rule triggers is likely present.
Inspect Local Changes
Run from repository root:
git status --short
git diff --name-status
git diff --name-status --cached
git ls-files --others --exclude-standard
git diff -U0 -- '*.go'
git diff -U0 --cached -- '*.go'
Decision Rules
Trigger conditions are defined in AGENTS.md -> Build Flow -> When make bazel_prepare is required.
Compare the output from the commands above against those conditions.
For the top-level test-function trigger in existing *_test.go files, inspect added lines in
git diff -U0 -- '*.go' and git diff -U0 --cached -- '*.go' output for patterns like:
+func TestXxx(t *testing.T) {
and treat that as requiring make bazel_prepare.
For import-section changes in existing Go files, inspect git diff -U0 -- '*.go' and
git diff -U0 --cached -- '*.go' for added/removed import lines, for example:
+import (
-import "fmt"
+ "context"
and treat those changes as requiring make bazel_prepare.
If any condition matches, run make bazel_prepare.
If none of the rules match, continue without make bazel_prepare and report the evidence.
