testing.go:1617: race detected during execution of test

Root Cause Analysis

• Go race detector flagged a data race in coderd/x/chatd during wait_agent recording tests.
• The race is between the test path (TestWaitAgentNonComputerUseNoRecording) and chatd server processing (Server.processOnce).
• The race causes the test-go-race-pg job to fail with multiple chatd test failures after the first race is detected.

Assignment Analysis

• git log --oneline --follow coderd/x/chatd/recording_internal_test.go
  • 17dec2a7 (Hugo Dutka) — added/updated the wait_agent recording tests.
• The race is detected inside TestWaitAgentNonComputerUseNoRecording in this file, so assigning to the most recent substantive author: @hugodutka.
