Main's order of 7 October 2026 after a load of 190 on 96 threads (a release join bench and the 0.3.19 app gate starving each
other, 'builds' of 16 minutes). tools/build-remote.sh resolves a class from the cargo subcommand and --priority: test and bench are
the bounded class (nice 10, the last 32 cores, -j 32) unless --priority gate (nice 0, the full set, the box's own jobs rule);
builds and checks are unchanged. remote-run.sh applies renice and taskset to the command's subshell, caps the jobs, lets a queued
gate (gate-pending-<pid>) take the next slot ahead of suites and benches, and prints nice and cores in the RESULT line and the
JSONL line (nice, cores, priority). The slot label carries '; kind=<k> nice=<n> cores=<c>' before '; agent=', so the dashboard's
job card shows why a job is slow. --plan prints the resolved class without the box; tools/ci/build-kind-default-check.sh (in the
gate) holds the five shapes. Smoke on the box: a suite at jobs=32 nice=10 cores=32, a gate at nice=0 cores=96.
