igneum-labs b67e86efee CI steward (7 October 2026, 17:3x UK): master takes only CI-passed commits; every job has a budget; the watcher reads cancelled and timed-out runs; box and network checks retry once
Thirteen failure emails between 15:26 and 16:53 UK. The classes and what closes them:
- the box-locks check on a hosted runner (10 runs): closed by e77cd823 and 0b4265ae earlier
- windows-ci's stale payload-inputs pin (3 runs): closed on master by 9983f9cf; update-return's dispatches still carry e69e8a39
- three hosted site jobs on master hung in the tree gate for over two hours (no timeout-minutes): ci.yml now carries
  site 15, changes 10, pow 60, sims 45, the overlap sweep runs under a 10-minute wall clock where GNU timeout exists, and
  tools/ci/workflow-timeouts-check.sh fails a job without a budget (self-test: a job without the key, a wrong budget)
- a branch merged with no ci run of its own (era-vdf be4db4f3, 16:31 UK): master's igneum-pow suite went red and five
  docs-only merges landed green over it because their runs skip the compile job. tools/ci/ci-state.mjs reads the runs
  API through gh (a commit's newest run, master's last COMPILED run, a branch's last red); merge-to-master.sh pushes an
  unrun branch for a run, waits for a queued one printing the clock, refuses a red one and refuses any merge onto a red
  master except the declared fix (--fixes-master); the pre-push hook refuses a push to master whose commit, or whose
  merge's branch parent, has no green run on that exact sha; a feature-branch push prints the branch's previous red
  first. Self-tests with a fake gh in all three.
- ci-red.yml fires on failure, cancelled and timed_out and hands the conclusion to red-watch.mjs, whose line names the
  kind (CI red, CI cancelled, CI timed out); the self-test reads the workflow file for the three conclusions
- tools/ci/retry-once.sh: one retry before red for the box-locks check, the scene parity check and the live public API
  check (each keeps its own skip line on a runner without the resource)

GitHub's branch protection cannot be applied: the organisation is on the free plan and the repository is private (the
API answers 403, "Upgrade to GitHub Pro or make this repository public"), so the two scripts are the enforcement; the
rule is one line in CLAUDE.md under the CI block.
