📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features

  • Added keyboard-based notification service selection with arrow-key navigation and Enter confirmation.
  • Added automatic fallback selection when the interactive terminal interface is cancelled or unavailable.
  • SMTP passwords are now configured through the KDM_SMTP_PASSWORD environment variable.

• Bug Fixes

  • Improved cancellation handling and terminal cleanup during configuration.
  • Added clearer error reporting for failed configuration actions.
  • Updated email setup to avoid unnecessary password prompts.

Walkthrough

The config command adds a readline fallback for cancelled TUI selection, removes SMTP password prompting, centralizes setup handling, and separates subcommand registration into dedicated helpers. Tests cover terminal input behavior and updated email configuration.

Changes

Interactive config setup

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Selection fallback and cancellation src/commands/config.ts, src/__tests__/config.test.ts	Raw-mode readline selection supports navigation, confirmation, cancellation, TTY checks, and cleanup. Cancelled TUI selection now uses this fallback.
Setup workflow and SMTP configuration src/commands/config.ts, src/__tests__/config.test.ts	Setup dispatches notification service handlers through handleConfigSetup. Email setup uses KDM_SMTP_PASSWORD without prompting or persisting the password.
Config subcommand registration src/commands/config.ts	Registration is split into setup, set, list, and clear helpers. Existing set, list, and clear behavior remains unchanged.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to eba6b

The PR improves interactive configuration and moves SMTP password setup to an environment variable, but the current help text still gives incorrect password-storage guidance, and test cleanup may leak mocked terminal state after failures. The change is mergeable with explicit owner follow-up on these minor correctness and test-isolation issues.

Restore process.stdin in guaranteed cleanup.

Both tests restore process.stdin only after all assertions complete. If parseAsync rejects or an assertion fails, later tests inherit mocked terminal methods.

Use try/finally or shared test cleanup for each override.

Correct the SMTP password guidance.

The list output says that a password can be set in config. src/config/store.ts:74-87 always exposes email_password as undefined. A stored value will not configure SMTP and can encourage secret persistence.

State that KDM_SMTP_PASSWORD is the only supported password source.

Proposed fix

-          '\n Note: SMTP password can be set either in config or via the KDM_SMTP_PASSWORD environment variable, which takes precedence if both are set.\n',
+          '\n Note: Set the SMTP password via the KDM_SMTP_PASSWORD environment variable.\n',
