WalkthroughmacOS startup now stores pull secrets in the login keychain and passes them to the CRC CLI through a temporary file. Startup selects the macOS path only on macOS. The stderr logger routing also now distinguishes error-level lines from other level-tagged output. ChangesmacOS startup

A rabbit tucked a secret away,
In a keychain safe through the day.
A temp file appeared,
Then startup was steered,
And stderr found logs where it may.

Review comments at @src/crc-cli.ts:
- Around line 85-87: Update the stderr handling around the `data` classification
condition to buffer partial chunks and classify each complete line
independently, routing error and fatal lines to `logger.error()` even when they
follow info lines in the same chunk. Preserve any incomplete trailing line for
the next chunk.
Review comments at @src/crc-start-macos.spec.ts:
- Line 24: Remove the unused StartInfo type import from the crc-start-macos spec
file; it is not referenced anywhere in that file.
- Around line 74-76: Update the beforeEach hook to clear mock call history for
the fs.unlink and fs.rmdir vi.fn() mocks before restoring mocks, so cleanup
assertions reflect only calls made by the current test.
Review comments at @src/crc-start-macos.ts:
- Around line 154-161: Update hasPullSecret() to return false only when
keychainLoad() fails with the item-not-found exit code 44, and rethrow all other
errors. Update mockKeychainLoadFailure() so its simulated missing-item error
carries code 44.
Review comments at @src/crc-start.spec.ts:
- Line 271: Replace the no-op matcher in the macOS test with a call-count
assertion. Add a spy on daemon.commander.pullSecretStore before startCrc runs,
then assert that the spy was not called.

Tested and cluster creation works as expected, nice!

Good point, there should be check if pull-secret-file configuration is set. Sign in and fetching pull secret can be skipped then. |
On macOS 26+, the CRC daemon runs as a launchd agent in a background
session that cannot access the user's login keychain. This causes
pull secret storage and retrieval to fail with
CSSMERR_CSP_NO_USER_INTERACTION / errSecInteractionNotAllowed errors.
This commit works around the issue by storing the pull secret directly
in the macOS login keychain from the extension process (which runs in
the user's GUI session and has keychain access), then passing it to
the CRC CLI via a temp file on each start:
- crc-start-macos.ts: new module with macOS-specific start flow
- Stores pull secret in keychain via `security -i` (stdin pipe to
avoid exposing secrets in process arguments)
- On start: reads from keychain -> writes temp file (0600) ->
`crc start --pull-secret-file <temp>` -> deletes temp file in
finally block
- crc-start.ts: delegates to macStart on macOS, commander on other
platforms
- crc-cli.ts: fix stderr log routing — only `level=error` and
`level=fatal` go to logger.error(); other logrus levels (info,
warning, debug) go to logger.log() to prevent false
operationFailed flags in the create resource dialog
