Outcome

Failed-job reruns of managed-image activation and MCP checks now reuse valid producer contracts from an earlier attempt in the same workflow run. Contract assembly remains fail-closed for mixed attempts, another workflow run, a future producer attempt, or another candidate revision.

Reason

The producer artifact name included the workflow attempt. When only consumer jobs reran, attempt 2 searched for attempt-2 contracts even though the successful producer jobs had uploaded attempt-1 contracts, so no artifacts were downloaded and assembly failed. Workflow run 33453709545 demonstrates this failure.

Changes

  • Record one producer-owned publication cohort before the PR producer matrix runs.
  • Use one stable contract artifact name per workflow run and agent, replacing only that agent's artifact when its producer job reruns.
  • Keep both consumers scoped to stable contract names from the current workflow run.
  • Accept a single complete cohort from the same run at the current or an earlier attempt while retaining the existing expected-agent, release, and candidate checks.
  • Reject mixed cohorts, another run, a future attempt, and another candidate revision.

Verification

  • npx --no-install vitest run --project e2e-support test/e2e/support/pr-managed-image-publication.test.ts test/e2e/support/exact-artifact-download.test.ts — 59 tests passed
  • npx --no-install vitest run --project integration test/inference/managed/managed-image-publication-workflow.test.ts -t 'builds and exercises every shipped agent' — 1 test passed, 33 skipped
  • npx --no-install vitest run --project integration test/automation/pull-requests/growth-guardrails.test.ts — 45 tests passed
  • npm run test:changed — passed; 45 guardrail tests passed and no additional affected CLI, plugin, or E2E-support files were selected
  • npm --prefix nemoclaw run typecheck — passed
  • npm run validate:pr — passed, including CLI TypeScript
  • git diff --check origin/main...HEAD — passed
  • All PR commits are Verified on GitHub
  • Secret review — the diff contains no secrets, API keys, or credentials

Review notes

This changes a CI artifact trust boundary. Direct review found no blocking issue: stable names remain scoped to the current workflow run and agent, a successful publication-identity job owns the cohort across failed-job reruns, and catalog validation rejects mixed cohorts, another run, a future attempt, and another candidate revision.

Changes

Managed-image contract publication

Layer / File(s) Summary
Shared publication cohort
.github/workflows/managed-images.yaml, test/inference/managed/managed-image-publication-workflow.test.ts
Pull requests now use the publication-identity cohort for image builds, validation, labels, and exported contracts.
Catalog workflow-run validation
tools/e2e/pr-managed-image-publication.mts
Catalog assembly receives consumer run metadata and rejects producer contracts from another run or a newer attempt.
Stable contract artifact workflow
.github/workflows/managed-images.yaml
PR contract artifacts use stable run-and-agent names with overwrite enabled. Activation and MCP discovery use attempt-independent artifact matching.
Contract restoration and workflow assertions
test/e2e/support/*, test/inference/managed/managed-image-publication-workflow.test.ts, test/e2e/README.md
Tests and documentation cover earlier-attempt restoration, mixed attempts, cross-run contracts, future attempts, and workflow wiring.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 1a336

Partial producer reruns can yield a managed-image catalog assembled from unmatched producer attempts, risking incorrect activation and preventing reliable workflow recovery. Cohort-wide rerun orchestration or reviewed per-producer attestation is required before merge.

Blocker: partial producer rerun recovery requires a repository architecture and provenance decision.

If one pr-build-and-entrypoint matrix lane fails, a failed-job rerun rebuilds only that lane. Its stable per-agent artifact then contains a later producer cohort while the successful agents retain the earlier cohort. Catalog validation requires one cohort and rejects that mixed set before activation or MCP discovery. This is the intended fail-closed result, but it means the partial rerun cannot recover the workflow.

Safe options are:

  • repository-owned orchestration that reruns every producer lane as one cohort before either consumer runs; or
  • an explicitly reviewed per-producer attestation model that proves contracts from different attempts are equivalent for workflow run, candidate revision, release, agent, digest, and producer identity.

A broad failed-job rerun or manually widening artifact selection to mix unmatched cohorts is not accepted. Behavior review and Operations review contain the detailed evidence.

One small wording cleanup is also pending: rename the test title from “restores” to “accepts contracts” because the test exercises catalog acceptance, not artifact restoration. The branch remains unchanged pending the architecture decision.

Reviewed the conflict resolution and producer-owned rerun cohort at exact head 1a3368b. The stable run-and-agent artifact identity remains fail-closed through cohort, run, attempt, revision, release, and expected-agent validation. Focused regressions and repository validation pass; no blocking findings.

Reject independently rerun producer lanes without per-producer attestation.

A retried lane overwrites only its artifact, but it keeps the earlier publication-identity cohort. The catalog then accepts artifacts produced in different attempts because it validates only the reused cohort string. This can assemble a catalog that was not produced as one publication cohort.

  • .github/workflows/managed-images.yaml#L870-L873: rerun every producer as one cohort, or export verifiable per-producer attempt identity with each contract.
  • tools/e2e/pr-managed-image-publication.mts#L104-L114: validate the attested producer identity for every contract before accepting mixed producer attempts.
  • test/e2e/support/pr-managed-image-publication.test.ts#L629-L636: reject an independently partial rerun unless the reviewed attestation model is implemented.
  • test/e2e/README.md#L127-L130: document only supported complete-cohort recovery behavior.

As per path instructions, “partial rerun recovery requires rerunning producers as one cohort or an explicitly reviewed per-producer attestation model.”
