Summary

Pull-request macOS CI was a single-pool lane: changing MACOS_RUNNER_PR moved every PR job from one pool to another. The app-host suite has seven parallel consumers, so it is where the other pools' capacity can be used right away.

This PR spreads same-repository pull-request app-host shards across all four macOS pools at once:

Shard PR runner
1 blacksmith-6vcpu-macos-15
2 blacksmith-6vcpu-macos-26
3 GitHub-hosted macos-15
4 GitHub-hosted macos-26
5 blacksmith-6vcpu-macos-15
6 blacksmith-6vcpu-macos-26
7 GitHub-hosted macos-26
  • Non-PR events keep the existing MACOS_RUNNER_15 routing.
  • Fork pull requests stay on the Blacksmith macOS 15 fallback.
  • A workflow running in a fork's own repository has no Blacksmith. It keeps ci: run fork pull-request workflows on GitHub-hosted runners #14023's hosted routing, split by each shard's pool OS: matrix.hosted_runner sends the macOS 15 shards to macos-15 and the macOS 26 shards to macos-26.

Xcode

The images carry different Xcodes: 26.3 on macos-15, 26.6 on macos-26. Same-repository PR shards therefore pin none. Each takes the newest stable Xcode with the macOS 26 SDK on its machine.

The seven shards still reuse the single compile-admission product. app_host_test_products.py restore now compares the Xcode major version, so a product built with 26.3 runs on a 26.6 shard. It still rejects another source revision, another architecture, or another major Xcode. Forks and non-PR events keep their pin.

Guardrails

  • A macos-* shard request fails unless runner.environment == github-hosted.
  • The shard layout test reads each matrix row's exact pr_runner and requires all four pools.
  • Restore tests cover a 26.3 → 26.6 accept and a 26 → 27 reject.
  • docs/ci-runners.md describes the app-host exception to the single MACOS_RUNNER_PR lane.
  • The temporary capacity-probe workflow is gone.

Also carries #14123's one-line import CmuxWorkspaces fix, without which main does not compile. It becomes a no-op once #14123 lands.

Testing

Ran locally on the merged head: shard layout, self-hosted runner guard, change areas, restore handoff, product reuse, runner label policy and workflow structure guards, plus actionlint. The real proof is this PR's own CI: the seven app-host shards should start on all four pools and restore one admission product.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • CI Improvements

    • macOS app-host checks now run across a mix of macOS 15 and 26 runner capacity, including GitHub-hosted runners for fork workflows.
    • Same-repository pull requests select a compatible stable Xcode for macOS 26. Product handoffs accept different point releases of the same Xcode major version while continuing to reject incompatible versions.
    • Added a check that flags same-repository pull-request jobs routed to an unexpected runner.
  • Documentation

    • Updated the CI runner and Xcode guidance to reflect the revised runner distribution and version selection.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The app-host unit-test matrix now assigns same-repository pull-request shards across Blacksmith and GitHub-hosted macOS runners. Fork pull requests use the Blacksmith macOS 15 fallback. A workflow check validates GitHub-hosted selections, and documentation and tests reflect the routing.

Changes

App-host pull-request runner routing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Configure app-host shard routing
.github/workflows/ci-macos.yml, docs/ci-runners.md
The matrix assigns runner labels to app-host shards. Fork pull requests use Blacksmith macOS 15; same-repository pull requests use the shard labels; non-pull-request events retain the existing routing. The documentation describes the runner pools and shared Xcode constraint.
Verify runner routing
.github/workflows/ci-macos.yml, tests/test_ci_cmux_unit_test_shard.py
A workflow step fails when a same-repository pull request selects a macos-prefixed runner that is not GitHub-hosted. The shard check verifies all seven shard entries and all four runner pools.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Other

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 0d841

Pull-request app-host tests now spread across four macOS pools. Some shards may still be routed to a self-hosted runner and then fail. The runner docs recommend an Xcode pin change that would break the hosted macOS 15 shard. The new routing test cannot detect when the hosted pools are removed from the matrix. Confirm the runner labels and correct the docs and test before merging.

Probe 1 results (run 35944848342, commit 1)

  • Concurrency. All 14 hosted macOS jobs (12 on macos-26, 2 on macos-latest) started within 7 s of each other, at 01:53:05 to 01:53:12Z. All 40 ubuntu-latest jobs started within 25 s. The organization's hosted macOS cap is therefore at least 14. That rules out the Free, Pro and Team plans, which all cap macOS at 5. Commit 2 runs 60 concurrent macos-26 jobs to find the real cap.
  • No self-hosted collision observed. Every one of the 14 jobs reported runner.environment=github-hosted and a GitHub Actions 10000007xx runner name. This is one sample at one moment. Any job routed to hosted should still assert it.
  • Hosted macos-26 machine: image macos-26-arm64 20260907.0351.1, macOS 26.6.2 (25G83), 3 × Apple M1 (Virtual), 7.0 GiB RAM, 95 GiB free disk.
  • Xcode matches. The hosted image's Xcode_26.6.app reports Xcode 26.6 / Build version 17F113 with SDK 25F70. That is the same string Blacksmith macos-26 printed in compile admission on 2026-09-23 at 20:33Z (runner blacksmith-6vcpu-macos-26-Runner-2b1db78322, Rootfs 26-20260916, macOS 26.3). app_host_test_products.py restore checks only revision, xcodebuild -version and architecture. A product compiled by PR admission on Blacksmith should therefore restore on a hosted shard. The OS builds differ (26.3 against 26.6.2), and the shard does not check that.
  • Hosted Xcode_26.3.app reports Build 17C529. It still needs comparing with the Blacksmith macos-15 Xcode 26.3 build used on main and in the merge queue.
  • Blacksmith control. The one blacksmith-6vcpu-macos-26 control job has been queued since 01:52:58Z.

Finding: right now PR macOS jobs run on hosted macos-15 only, not on Blacksmith as well

At 02:24Z someone set MACOS_RUNNER_PR=macos-15 and CMUX_CI_XCODE_APP_PR=/Applications/Xcode_26.3.app. I checked two in-progress PR CI runs: every macOS job in them landed on a hosted runner (cli-pipe-regressions on GitHub Actions 1000001210 and …1207). As a result:

  • Blacksmith macos-15 and macos-26 take no PR work now. The PR lane only switched which single pool it uses.
  • Hosted macos-26 is still unused, and each hosted macos-15 job gets 3 vCPU against Blacksmith's 6.

Leo wants all four pools (Blacksmith 15 and 26, hosted 15 and 26) running jobs at the same time. That creates two constraints for this PR:

  1. runs-on cannot mean "any of these pools", because a label array must match every label. The split has to be decided for each job or shard. One option is a Linux job that picks a pool for each shard from the current queue depth and passes it through the matrix.
  2. app_host_test_products.py restore needs the exact same xcodebuild -version output. Every pool a shard can land on must therefore pin the same Xcode build. Your probe found Xcode_26.3.app (17C529) on hosted macos-26, so 26.3 can span hosted 15, hosted 26 and Blacksmith 15. Blacksmith macos-26 still has to be checked for it. Any pool without 26.3 needs its own compile.

For comparison, #14083 already runs a PR that only changes tests on one worker instead of 7, so the new capacity would go to runs that actually need it.

The close was an artifact of syncing this branch to current main: for a moment the PR head exactly equaled the base, so GitHub auto-closed it. I reopened it immediately after the routing commits landed. It is open + ready now, full-ci is on it, and auto-merge is enabled. The temporary probe is gone; the branch now contains the four-pool app-host routing.

macOS compile admission failed on 0d8410b with CodexTurnRestoreIntentPolicy.swift:13: cannot find type 'RestorableAgentProcessLiveness' in scope. The cause is not this PR: main at 36c3050 uses that type without import CmuxWorkspaces, so every macOS compile from current main fails the same way. 5f19750 ports the one-line fix from #14123. It becomes a no-op once #14123 lands.

The four-pool check matched labels as substrings, so macos-15 passed
inside blacksmith-6vcpu-macos-15. Read each matrix row's pr_runner
exactly. The docs example pinned Xcode 26.5, which the macos-15 pools
lack and every app-host shard reads.

Same-repository pull-request shards now span images with different
Xcodes (26.3 on macos-15, 26.6 on macos-26). They pin none: each takes
the newest stable macOS 26 SDK Xcode on its machine, and restore accepts
any point release of the admission build's major Xcode instead of an
exact xcodebuild -version match. Forks and other events keep the pin.

#14023's fork routing guard only recognised a literal macos-15 fork
branch. It now also accepts matrix.hosted_runner when every hosted_runner
row in the workflow is a GitHub-hosted macOS label, which is how the
app-host shards split fork-repository runs over macos-15 and macos-26.

The GitHub-hosted route check now runs before checkout, and the job

* test: app-host product consumers must run on the producer's pool and Xcode

A pull request's compile admission runs where MACOS_RUNNER_PR points
(currently Blacksmith macOS 26, Xcode 26.6), but the app-host shard matrix
hard-codes its own pools, including blacksmith-6vcpu-macos-15 for the
changed-suites worker and shards 1, 3 and 5. Those select Xcode 26.3, whose
Testing.framework lacks symbols the 26.6-linked cmuxTests bundle imports,
so the bundle fails to dlopen before any test runs (runs 35958884147 and
35959632037).

These guards fail on main:
- compile admission publishes its pool and Xcode as outputs, and every
  ci-macos.yml job that downloads its product either reads those outputs
  or restates its exact expressions; a new admission route (such as main's
  full-suite dispatch taking the pull-request pool) is caught;
- restore refuses products from a newer Xcode, naming both versions;
- app-host-test-rerun.yml runs on the pool that built the products.

* ci: run app-host product consumers on compile admission's pool and Xcode

The app-host shards ran test-without-building on pools hard-coded per
matrix row (#14097), with no Xcode pin on same-repository pull requests.
Once MACOS_RUNNER_PR moved compile admission to Blacksmith macOS 26
(Xcode 26.6), every shard on macOS 15 selected Xcode 26.3 and failed to
load the cmuxTests bundle: "Symbol not found: ...Testing.Attachment...
Expected in: Xcode_26.3.app/.../Testing.framework". The changed-suites
worker (shard 8) sits on macOS 15, so every PR that edits cmuxTests/ went
red; full-suite shards 1, 3 and 5 are on macOS 15 too.

- macos-compile-admission publishes `runner` and `xcode_app` outputs.
  app-host-unit-tests runs on `needs.macos-compile-admission.outputs.runner`
  and pins its `xcode_app`, and the matrix rows no longer name pools, so any
  routing change to the admission moves the shards with it.
- tests-build-and-lag already restated the admission's route and pin; it is
  unchanged, and the new guard fails when the two drift.
- app_host_test_products.py restore refuses a product built by a newer Xcode
  than the job's, naming both versions, instead of letting xcodebuild crash
  in dlopen.
- app-host-test-rerun.yml runs on the Blacksmith pool whose macOS matches the
  source run's compile admission, since only that image carries the
  products' Xcode.

This gives up striping PR shards across Blacksmith and GitHub-hosted macOS
15/26. Restoring a spread needs every pool involved to carry the admission's
exact Xcode.

ci-main-full-suite.yml dispatches ci.yml on main, and its compile
admission compiles main's HEAD cold on blacksmith-6vcpu-macos-15 while
seed-derived-data.yml has just built the same commit, or its parent, on
MACOS_RUNNER_PR. These tests evaluate the admission routing and the seed
step condition for a main dispatch and require both to match the seeder.

* ci: let main's full-suite admission adopt the DerivedData seed

Every main push compiled the same commit twice: seed-derived-data.yml
built it on MACOS_RUNNER_PR, and the ci.yml run ci-main-full-suite.yml
dispatches compiled it again from cold on blacksmith-6vcpu-macos-15,
because seed adoption was limited to pull requests and a seed only
matches on the pool and Xcode that built it.

Compile admission for a workflow_dispatch on main now runs on the
pull-request pool with the pull-request Xcode, the pair the seeder uses,
and adopts the seed of the commit it tests. When that seed is still
building, the newest one (usually the parent's) leaves one merge's diff
to compile. Merge groups and dispatches on other branches are unchanged.

Seeds are written only by main-branch jobs in the ci-cache-writer
environment and read here through the public URL without credentials,
as pull requests already read them.

* test: app-host product consumers must run on the producer's pool and Xcode

A pull request's compile admission runs where MACOS_RUNNER_PR points
(currently Blacksmith macOS 26, Xcode 26.6), but the app-host shard matrix
hard-codes its own pools, including blacksmith-6vcpu-macos-15 for the
changed-suites worker and shards 1, 3 and 5. Those select Xcode 26.3, whose
Testing.framework lacks symbols the 26.6-linked cmuxTests bundle imports,
so the bundle fails to dlopen before any test runs (runs 35958884147 and
35959632037).

These guards fail on main:
- compile admission publishes its pool and Xcode as outputs, and every
  ci-macos.yml job that downloads its product either reads those outputs
  or restates its exact expressions; a new admission route (such as main's
  full-suite dispatch taking the pull-request pool) is caught;
- restore refuses products from a newer Xcode, naming both versions;
- app-host-test-rerun.yml runs on the pool that built the products.

* ci: run app-host product consumers on compile admission's pool and Xcode

The app-host shards ran test-without-building on pools hard-coded per
matrix row (#14097), with no Xcode pin on same-repository pull requests.
Once MACOS_RUNNER_PR moved compile admission to Blacksmith macOS 26
(Xcode 26.6), every shard on macOS 15 selected Xcode 26.3 and failed to
load the cmuxTests bundle: "Symbol not found: ...Testing.Attachment...
Expected in: Xcode_26.3.app/.../Testing.framework". The changed-suites
worker (shard 8) sits on macOS 15, so every PR that edits cmuxTests/ went
red; full-suite shards 1, 3 and 5 are on macOS 15 too.

- macos-compile-admission publishes `runner` and `xcode_app` outputs.
  app-host-unit-tests runs on `needs.macos-compile-admission.outputs.runner`
  and pins its `xcode_app`, and the matrix rows no longer name pools, so any
  routing change to the admission moves the shards with it.
- tests-build-and-lag already restated the admission's route and pin; it is
  unchanged, and the new guard fails when the two drift.
- app_host_test_products.py restore refuses a product built by a newer Xcode
  than the job's, naming both versions, instead of letting xcodebuild crash
  in dlopen.
- app-host-test-rerun.yml runs on the Blacksmith pool whose macOS matches the
  source run's compile admission, since only that image carries the
  products' Xcode.

This gives up striping PR shards across Blacksmith and GitHub-hosted macOS
15/26. Restoring a spread needs every pool involved to carry the admission's
exact Xcode.

* ci: keep display verification on admission's pool for main's full suite

tests-build-and-lag restates compile admission's route and Xcode pin,
because the test bundles only load under the Xcode that linked them.
With admission moving main's full-suite dispatch to MACOS_RUNNER_PR and
the pull-request Xcode, the display job kept the macos-15 route and the
26.3 pin, which the product-consumer guard from #14163 rejects. Give its
runs-on, REQUESTED_RUNNER and Xcode pin the same main-dispatch condition.
It keeps restating the route rather than reading admission's outputs so
paid overflow can still move non-PR display work to MACOS_RUNNER_DISPLAY.

The guard's hypothetical-route test used main dispatch as its example,
which this branch makes real; it now uses merge groups.
