Stacked on #14318. When an owned mini refuses a job, attempt 2 of that job now goes back to the fleet once, not straight to Blacksmith.

How

  • New picker output. pr_runner_pool.py writes refused_retry_runner, set to the owned label when it picks an owned pool and empty otherwise. ci.yml passes it on as macos_pr_refused_retry_runner, and the three reusable workflows take it as pr_refused_retry_runner.
  • Retry branch in runs-on. Each job with an owned-jobs key gets a branch in front of the one it already has:
    • Jobs covered: admission, lag, the shards, cli-product, cli-pipe, remote-daemon, claude-wrapper.
    • The branch is github.run_attempt == 2 && contains(<owned_jobs>, ' <key> ') && <refused_retry_runner> || .
    • When refused_retry_runner is empty, the expression falls through to today's route.
  • Only a refusal re-runs on the fleet. The rescue (ci: give a refused owned job one more try on the fleet before Blacksmith #14312) re-runs a refused job with rerun-failed-jobs, which reuses attempt 1's changes outputs, so attempt 2 gets the owned label. A stuck job is cancelled and re-run in full instead. That re-runs changes, the picker never takes an owned pool on attempt 2 or later, so refused_retry_runner comes back empty and the job goes to Blacksmith.
  • Bounded. ci: give a refused owned job one more try on the fleet before Blacksmith #14312 watches attempt 2. A second refusal, or a stuck job, sends attempt 3 to Blacksmith.

Guard

check_owned_pools_route_through_picker now treats the new output as another carrier of the owned label:

  • The picker step's output may be read only by macos_pr_refused_retry_runner.
  • The pr_refused_retry_runner input must be passed exactly.
  • The claude-wrapper branch sits behind its pull_request condition.

check_macos_runner accepts the shard prefix.

Tests

No builds. Passing:

  • test_ci_pr_runner_pool, with pinned expressions updated and the output checked on attempts 1 and 2
  • test_ci_self_hosted_guard.sh
  • test_seed_derived_data
  • test_ci_fork_runner_routing
  • test_ci_owned_pool_rescue

The product key is unaffected, because only runs-on and CMUX_PRODUCT_RUNNER change.

Summary by cubic

When an owned runner refuses a CI job, attempt 2 of that job now tries the owned fleet once more before Blacksmith instead of going straight to Blacksmith.

  • The picker writes a new refused_retry_runner output (the owned label on an owned-pool pick, empty otherwise), which ci.yml passes to the macOS workflows as pr_refused_retry_runner.
  • Owned-key jobs — admission, lag, shards, cli-product, cli-pipe, remote-daemon, claude-wrapper — get an attempt-2 runs-on branch that retries the owned label, then falls through to the existing route when the output is empty.
  • Only the rescue's re-run retries on the fleet: it re-runs failed jobs as github-actions[bot] with attempt 1's outputs. A person's manual Re-run failed jobs is also attempt 2 with the same outputs but goes to Blacksmith, while a stuck job re-runs in full and re-picks, leaving refused_retry_runner empty.
  • The runner guard treats refused_retry_runner as another owned-label carrier and pins the branch in the product-consumer route check.

Written for commit bd261f2. Summary will update on new commits.

Review in cubic

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Pull request macOS jobs can now be split across available owned machines and overflow runners, with placement based on job needs and priority.
    • Jobs refused by an owned pool can retry on a designated runner; subsequent retries follow the configured retry route.
    • Pool availability is released as owned jobs complete, allowing other runs to use those machines sooner.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds per-job placement on owned macOS pools, changes how the pool picker accounts for and assigns available machines, and routes retries using each job’s pool assignment and attempt number.

Changes

Owned macOS pool routing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Pool planning and job placement
scripts/ci/pr_runner_pool.py, .github/workflows/ci.yml, scripts/ci/owned_pool_rescue.py, tests/test_ci_pr_runner_pool.py
The picker plans admission, post-admission, and side-lane jobs. With split placement enabled, it can select an owned pool that has free machines even when the full run does not fit. It assigns jobs within the owned budget and reports the selected job keys and retry runners.
Owned-pool reservation accounting
scripts/ci/queue_janitor.py, tests/test_ci_pr_runner_pool.py
Active-run markers continue to reserve owned machines while owned jobs are queued or active. The snapshot skips the marker reservation when all owned jobs are complete and their count reaches the declared peak.
Workflow runner routing
.github/workflows/ci.yml, .github/workflows/ci-macos.yml, .github/workflows/cli-pipe-regressions.yml, .github/workflows/remote-daemon.yml
CI passes owned-job keys and refused-retry runner values to downstream jobs. On attempt 2, a job assigned to the owned pool selects the refused-retry runner. Other retries use the retry runner before existing fallbacks.
Routing and placement validation
tests/test_ci_change_areas.py, tests/test_ci_parallel_artifact_transport.py, tests/test_ci_pr_runner_pool.py, tests/test_ci_self_hosted_guard.sh, tests/test_seed_derived_data.py
Tests validate placement plans, per-job runner expressions, workflow routing, self-hosted runner guards, and owned-pool retry selection.

Do not use attempt 2 and ownership as a refusal signal.

A failed-jobs rerun reuses the attempt-1 outputs. Each listed route then selects pr_refused_retry_runner when github.run_attempt == 2 and the job is in pr_owned_jobs. An ordinary build or test failure therefore returns to the owned runner instead of pr_retry_runner.

owned_pool_rescue.py detects refusals, but ci-owned-pool-rescue.yml does not propagate a refusal-only signal into the rerun. Add that signal and require it before selecting pr_refused_retry_runner; otherwise select pr_retry_runner.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

The janitor frees a run's owned machines before all its owned jobs exist.

done >= marker[1] compares a count of completed jobs with a count of machines. The marker's <jobs> value is held from place(): the side lanes plus max(1, len(after)). Jobs listed in after reuse admission's machine, so a run usually places more owned jobs than its peak. The comment's reasoning, "keeps reserving its peak until that many owned jobs have completed," only holds when the placed-job count equals the peak.

Concrete triggers:

  • The budget is 1, so owned_jobs is " admission shard-1 " and the marker says 1. Admission completes. shard-1 is not created until admission finishes, so owned_jobs holds one completed job. The result is done=1 >= 1, so released is true.
  • The pool has 2 machines free and GUI jobs are switched off, so the run places " admission cli-product cli-pipe " and the marker says 2. Admission and cli-pipe complete before cli-product is created. The result is done=2 >= 2, so released is true.

A snapshot taken in that window reports no committed machine for the run. The next picker can give the mini to another run. shard-1 or cli-product then queues on the owned pool until the rescue budget runs out.

Fix: carry the placed-job count in the marker and compare done with that count. For example, append it to the marker name (...-<jobs>-<placed>-<pool>) and parse it in owned_marker and run_marker. Alternatively, write the owned_jobs list into the marker JSON and release only when every listed key has completed.

Exercise the refused-retry branch in the rerun test.

The attempt-2 case marks admission as owned but provides no pr_refused_retry_runner. The evaluator resolves that input to None, so the expression falls back to pr_retry_runner. Add a nonempty refused-retry runner case and assert that attempt 2 selects it. Keep the empty-input fallback case.
