## RC Testing Results — apache-airflow-ctl 0.1.4rc2
**Environment:** Breeze (Docker), Python 3.10, SQLite backend
**Date:** 2026-04-19
**Install note:** Required `httpx==0.28.1` pin — RC ships `httpx==1.0.dev3`
which removed `HTTPStatusError`, crashing on startup.
```
uv tool install 'apache-airflow-ctl==0.1.4rc2' --prerelease=allow --with
'httpx==0.28.1' --force-reinstall
```
| PR | Fix | Result | Notes |
|----|-----|--------|-------|
| #63772 | `version` no keyring prompt | ✅ Pass | Returns immediately, no
credential prompts |
| #64071 | `--limit` returns ≤N results | ✅ Pass | Verified with 7 queued
runs: `--limit 2` → 2 rows, `--limit 5` → 5 rows |
| #64582 | Negative `--limit` no infinite loop | ✅ Pass | Exits in <1s; API
validates and rejects `-1` cleanly |
| #65052 | Non-zero exit on failure | ✅ Pass | `dags get --dag-id
nonexistent-dag` exits 1 |
| #65065 | `jobs list` `is_alive` default | ✅ Pass | Returns
DagProcessorJob, SchedulerJob, TriggererJob without error |
| #64935 | `plugins list` command exists | ✅ Pass | Returns plugin list |
| #63259 | Backfill no serialization error | ✅ Pass | `backfill list`
returns empty list cleanly |
| #63733 | `run_type` in dag-run response | ✅ Pass | `run_type: "manual"`
present in `dagrun list` response |
| #64362 | Variable falsy values preserved | ✅ Pass | `"0"` → `"0"` and
`"false"` → `"false"` on create + get |

### New bug found: `dagrun list` crashes without `--state`
**Command:** `airflowctl dagrun list --limit 5`
**Error:**
```
Server error: Invalid value for state. Valid values are queued, running,
success, failed
```
**Root cause:** `DagRunOperations.list()` declares `state: str` as a
required parameter with no default. When `--state` is omitted, argparse passes
`None`. The operation unconditionally converts it with `str(state)` (line 630
of `operations.py`), which produces the literal string `"None"` — an invalid
state value that the API rejects.
**Reproduce:**
```bash
airflowctl dagrun list --limit 5
# → Server error: Invalid value for state. Valid values are queued, running,
success, failed
```
**Fix:** Change the `state` parameter to optional and skip it when not
provided:
```python
# operations.py, DagRunOperations.list()
def list(self, state: str | None = None, limit: int = 100, ...):
params: dict[str, Any] = {"limit": limit}
if state is not None:
params["state"] = state
```
**Workaround:** Pass `--state` explicitly, e.g. `airflowctl dagrun list
--state running --limit 5`.
Note: This also means `--limit` and `--limit=-1` tests for PRs #64071 and
#64582 required `--state` to be passed explicitly to isolate those behaviors.
