Why

Owned minis should be the first choice for every macOS job they can run, with Blacksmith as overflow. Pull request jobs already work this way. Several non-PR jobs are still hard-coded to Blacksmith. The trigger was run 36239331473 (push to main): build-nightly-app ran on blacksmith-12vcpu-macos-26 because its runs-on never considered a mini.

What moves

nightly.yml build-nightly-app now tries one trusted owned mini first: cmux15. On attempt 1 of a push or schedule run on main, while CI_PR_POOL_OWNED == 1, it asks for ["<vars.CI_SEED_TRUSTED_POOL>", "<vars.CI_NIGHTLY_TRUSTED_RUNNER>"]. Only a runner carrying both the trusted pool label and its own glaeda-runner-<name> label can take the job. In every other case it falls back to the existing Blacksmith 12 vCPU expression: forks, rc/**, dispatches, fast dogfood, re-runs, or either variable empty.

  • Why cmux15 only, not mini-6. Both carry glaeda-trusted-std-xcode-26.6, so seeding keeps using both. mini-6 also runs the team dev-build worker as the same user, and hosts ci-dash, subrouter-dash and tunnels. cmux15 has no PR runners and no dev-build worker. Over the last 24.7 h it ran 70 jobs, all seed, all admitted, at about 40% utilisation with a p50 of 504 s, so it has headroom. CI_SEED_TRUSTED_POOL itself is not narrowed.

  • The label does not exist on cmux15 yet. It carries no unique label today; its runner was registered before glaeda started adding glaeda-runner-<name> to root runners. Current glaeda main already adds glaeda-runner-cmux15-glaeda when the runner is registered again from the manifest; the glaeda-cmux-runner --manifest … --member cmux15 plan shows it. Until the label exists and the variable is set, nothing changes and the job stays on Blacksmith.

  • Hook. trusted_refusal already admits main's push and schedule runs. glaeda-cmux-runner-hook: class cmux's nightly app build as isolated teamleaderleo/glaeda#1287 classes nightly.yml/build-nightly-app as isolated (2 units, no token). As an unknown id it would take the compile class and hold the canonical root that a seed on the same mini waits for.

  • Why the trusted pool and not the PR pool (glaeda-std). This job holds the ci-cache-writer R2 keys and SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN, and its unsigned app is what build-sign-notarize-nightly signs and ships. The PR pool minis run pull request code and keep state between jobs. The repo already refuses owned PR minis for ci-cache-writer jobs (ios_runner_pool.owned_blocker: "seed_cache runs in the ci-cache-writer environment with the R2 write keys"). The trusted pool is the owned pool built for this case. Its runners have no pull request runners, and the glaeda hook (trusted_refusal in glaeda-cmux-runner-hook) admits only main's own push and schedule jobs. seed-derived-data.yml already writes R2 seeds from it with the same environment, so the environment and its secrets are proven on self-hosted runners.

  • Fallback uses the existing rescue, not a new mechanism. The job has no picker, like the side lanes. ci-owned-pool-rescue.yml now also triggers on Nightly macOS build (workflow_run: requested). owned_pool_rescue.py watches it as a side lane (NIGHTLY_WORKFLOW_PATH, Target.nightly), and job_pool now recognises glaeda-(root-)trusted-* labels.

    • Stuck: no trusted mini takes the job within CI_OWNED_POOL_RESCUE_SECONDS plus one QUEUE_ROUND_SECONDS (900 s). The extra round exists because the same minis seed DerivedData on every push, and a seed takes 5–7 min. The run is cancelled and its failed and cancelled jobs are re-run on Blacksmith.
    • Refused at job start: the rescue waits for the run to finish, then re-runs the failed jobs.
    • A newer nightly run on main is still unfinished: the rescue does not re-run. nightly.yml's concurrency group never cancels in progress, so a re-run would join the group and cancel the pending newer run. A stuck run is still cancelled, so the newer run can start.
  • Compile-cache key. The minis run the same Xcode build as Blacksmith (Xcode 26.6, 17F113; CMUX_CI_XCODE_APP_MACOS_26=/Applications/Xcode_26.6.app), so OS, arch and toolchain would collide. The workspace path differs, so mini entries would mostly miss on Blacksmith and push Blacksmith's own entry out of the prefix restore. On a *-glaeda[-K] runner the key step now folds the workspace path into the toolchain hash. Each lineage restores only its own entries, and the Blacksmith key bytes are unchanged.

  • Workspace reuse. The job already clears stale git locks. It now also clears build-universal and remote-daemon-assets by name after checkout (scripts/ci/clear-dirs.sh), so a stale product or dSYM from an earlier job can never ship.

  • Timeouts and speed. The one universal Release build measured on a mini (run 36010907785, ci: try the nightly app compile on an owned Mac mini first, Blacksmith fallback #14208) compiled in 15.5 min. The Blacksmith 12 vCPU job took 16 min in run 36239331473. The 90 min timeout is unchanged.

  • Guard rails. runner_label_policy.py now accepts only these values:

    • CI_SEED_TRUSTED_POOL: glaeda-trusted-<class>-xcode-<version> or empty. A PR pool label there would put these credentials on PR machines.
    • CI_NIGHTLY_TRUSTED_RUNNER (new): glaeda-runner-<lowercase name> or empty. This shape also keeps the value safe inside the JSON runs-on array. Even a PR runner's name label could match nothing here, because PR runners never carry the trusted pool label.

    ci-health-report.yml and ci-repo-variables.yml report both. No repo variable was changed.

To turn it on (owner)

  1. Merge glaeda-cmux-runner-hook: class cmux's nightly app build as isolated teamleaderleo/glaeda#1287.
  2. Re-register cmux15's runner from the manifest with current glaeda, so it gains glaeda-runner-cmux15-glaeda.
  3. gh variable set CI_NIGHTLY_TRUSTED_RUNNER --repo manaflow-ai/cmux -b glaeda-runner-cmux15-glaeda

To turn it off, clear the variable.

What build-nightly-app exposes to the runner (for review)

It holds no signing material. The Apple certificate, keychain password, notary credentials and Sparkle keys are only in build-sign-notarize-nightly, which this PR leaves untouched. It is not secret-free, though:

  • ci-cache-writer environment (main only). Holds CI_CACHE_R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID, CI_CACHE_R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY and CI_CACHE_R2_ACCOUNT_ID. The job passes these to its two cache-save steps: the Xcode compilation cache and the Swift packages cache. That is R2 write access to the CI cache bucket.
  • SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN (repository secret), used for the dSYM upload.
  • Workflow token permissions contents: write, attestations: write and id-token: write. The job attests the SSH daemon assets.
  • Its outputs are consumed downstream. The unsigned app and the remote-daemon assets are signed and shipped by later jobs, so a tampered build would ship.

This is why the job targets the trusted pool and never the PR pool. The same R2 keys already reach the trusted pool through seed-derived-data.yml. The build output, which gets signed and shipped, is the new trust step here. This is also why only cmux15 builds it.

Self-hosted guard. check_no_self_hosted_fleet_runners forbids fleet labels, including anything matching glaeda-, and bare self-hosted/macOS/ARM64 written literally in workflow text. It also forbids MACOS_RUNNER_* variables that hold such labels. This PR does not loosen it and adds no exception. The new branch names no label; it builds runs-on from vars.CI_SEED_TRUSTED_POOL and vars.CI_NIGHTLY_TRUSTED_RUNNER, whose values runner_label_policy.py now holds to their shapes. Signing, notarization and TestFlight/App Store uploads stay on Blacksmith, per cmuxterm-hq#571. A dedicated release mini is proposed in cmuxterm-hq#627.

What stays on Blacksmith, and why

  • Signing and notarization (build-sign-notarize-nightly, release.yml, iOS store jobs) stay on Blacksmith. Signing has never been proven on an owned mini: there is no such run in the repo history. The retired self-hosted fleet failed codesign with errSecInternalComponent (CI: pin signing/notarization jobs to WarpBuild (fix self-hosted codesign errSecInternalComponent) #6264, "pin signing jobs to WarpBuild"), and ci: try the nightly app compile on an owned Mac mini first, Blacksmith fallback #14208 also kept signing on hosted runners. The keychain import into build.keychain is untested on minis.
  • build-nightly-ghostty-cli-helper and seed-swiftpm-manifests need a macOS 15 image or the SDK 15 Xcode, which the minis do not have.
  • refresh-compilation-cache is the only job that keeps the Blacksmith fallback lineage of the release cache warm.
  • refresh-test-compilation-cache and the seed-derived-data Blacksmith pools seed Blacksmith's own admission lanes.
  • Fork paths keep repository_owner != 'manaflow-ai' first everywhere.

Known trade-offs to decide before merge

  • A refused build fails build-nightly-app before the rescue re-runs it, so report-nightly-failure can open the failure issue. close-nightly-failure-issue closes it again when the re-run publishes.
  • Every nightly push or schedule run on main starts a GitHub-hosted rescue watch. It polls through the route App's own token and stops once the trusted mini accepts the job or the run ends without one.

Tests

  • tests/test_ci_owned_pool_rescue.py: a new Nightly class covers targets, trusted labels, the queue round, stuck, refused, the newer-run guard and the API read. The workflow gate test is updated.
  • tests/test_runner_label_policy.py: TrustedPoolVariable.
  • tests/test_nightly_universal_build.sh: the pinned runs-on.
  • actionlint on the changed workflows.
  • scripts/ci/guards-local.sh --all

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • CI Improvements
    • Eligible nightly macOS builds on the main branch can use a trusted owned runner, with existing fallback routing retained for other runs.
    • Stalled eligible nightly builds can be recovered automatically. If a newer nightly build is already waiting, the older run is cancelled without being restarted.
    • Trusted runner settings are validated before use.
  • Documentation
    • Updated guidance clarifies nightly build routing and which jobs remain on other runners.

…h as fallback

build-nightly-app was hard-coded to blacksmith-12vcpu-macos-26, so a push
to main never considered an owned mini (run 36239331473). Attempt 1 of a
push or schedule run on main now asks for vars.CI_SEED_TRUSTED_POOL, the
trusted owned pool (no pull request runners; the glaeda hook admits only
main's push and schedule jobs), because the job holds the ci-cache-writer
R2 keys and the Sentry token and its app is signed and shipped. Forks,
rc/**, dispatches, fast dogfood and re-runs keep Blacksmith.

- owned_pool_rescue.py / ci-owned-pool-rescue.yml: watch nightly.yml runs
  like a picker-less side lane (NIGHTLY_WORKFLOW_PATH). Recognise
  glaeda-trusted-* labels. Allow one queue round behind a DerivedData seed.
  A stuck or refused build is re-run on Blacksmith, unless a newer nightly
  run on main is still pending.
- nightly.yml: an owned runner folds its workspace path into the release
  compile-cache key, so the mini and Blacksmith lineages never evict each
  other (Blacksmith's key is unchanged). Clear build outputs a persistent
  runner kept.
- runner_label_policy.py: CI_SEED_TRUSTED_POOL may only name a
  glaeda-trusted-* label; the health report and variable check read it.
- Signing and notarization stay on Blacksmith (unproven on owned Macs;
  #6264). Docs list every macOS job's route.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Eligible first-attempt main-branch nightly builds can use a configured trusted owned pool. The rescue workflow now watches those runs and handles queueing, refused builds, and newer unfinished runs. CI variable validation, tests, and runner documentation also cover the route.

Changes

Trusted owned-pool nightly builds

Layer / File(s) Summary
Trusted-pool configuration and nightly routing
.github/workflows/nightly.yml, scripts/ci/runner_label_policy.py, .github/workflows/ci-health-report.yml, .github/workflows/ci-repo-variables.yml, tests/test_runner_label_policy.py, tests/test_nightly_universal_build.sh, docs/ci-runners.md, docs/ci/mac-fleet.md
The runner-label policy validates CI_SEED_TRUSTED_POOL and CI_NIGHTLY_TRUSTED_RUNNER. Eligible nightly builds select the trusted pool when the required conditions and variables are present. The job clears specified build outputs and includes the workspace path in Glaeda runner cache hashes. CI variable checks, tests, and documentation cover these routes.
Nightly rescue eligibility
.github/workflows/ci-owned-pool-rescue.yml, scripts/ci/owned_pool_rescue.py, tests/test_ci_owned_pool_rescue.py
The rescue workflow accepts eligible nightly completion events. The rescue script recognizes trusted-pool labels and targets first-attempt same-repository main push or schedule runs. Tests cover workflow conditions and target selection.
Queue and newer-run handling
scripts/ci/owned_pool_rescue.py, tests/test_ci_owned_pool_rescue.py
The watcher checks for newer unfinished nightly runs and applies a one-round queue allowance. It cancels a superseded stuck run without rerunning it and handles refused builds according to whether a newer run exists. Tests cover these outcomes.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to aee71

A stuck nightly app build can be cancelled without a replacement build. Fix the rescue supersession check before merging, and restrict or confirm the approved runner-label configuration.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to aee71

The new runner selection is restricted to main-branch builds and requires two trusted-runner labels. However, its configuration check accepts runner names other than the intended build machine. A misconfiguration could place a build that uses sensitive credentials and produces a shipped app on another trusted machine with a different workload.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · security · inferred: The nightly runner policy accepts any syntactically valid runner-name label rather than binding the shipped-app build to the intended trusted mini. If an alternative runner carries both selected labels, a configured first-attempt build can use it without a provenance failure or rescue.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — Effective exposure is limited to qualifying main-branch nightly builds and a runner matching both configured labels. If that runner is the documented development-build mini instead of the intended builder, the affected boundary includes build credentials and the app later signed for distribution.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — The retained finding identifies the runner-name validation gap. A changed repository variable could select another eligible trusted runner if it carries both labels; successful execution there would not trigger the queue or refusal rescue. Actual alternative registration and variable-write authority remain unverified.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Owned placement requires enabled mode, qualifying main push or schedule, attempt one, and both labels. Rescue independently checks the event, branch, repository, and attempt. These gates constrain entry but do not establish the actual registered runner’s identity.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Fallback and rescue contain unavailable or refusing owned runners, not a completed build on an unintended but accepted runner. The latter requires a placement or provenance control rather than a retry.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Bind nightly placement to an approved runner identity, or verify the selected runner’s identity before its artifact can be signed. Establish the live label assignments and variable-write controls before relying on the documented separation.

nightly builds use a full workflow rerun rather than the failed-jobs-only path;
retain failed-only reruns for refused nightly jobs. Use the target’s nightly
status when evaluating the side-rerun condition so non-nightly side targets keep
their existing behavior.
- Around line 805-807: Update rescue() so it treats a newer unfinished run as
superseding only after confirming it will produce an app, rather than relying on
newer_unfinished_runs()’s workflow, branch, run ID, and status filters alone.
Ignore runs where build-nightly-app is skipped, and preserve the existing
superseding behavior for app-producing runs.

site:docs.github.com REST Actions rerun failed jobs cancelled workflow run rerun-failed-jobs

💡 Result:

To rerun failed jobs, send a `POST` request to:

```text
/repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/runs/{run_id}/rerun-failed-jobs
```

It reruns failed jobs **and their dependent jobs**. You can optionally set `enable_debug_logging` in the request body. The endpoint requires **Actions: write** permission for fine-grained tokens and returns `201` when created. ([docs.github.com](https://docs.github.com/en/rest/actions/workflow-runs?utm_source=openai))

```bash
curl -L -X POST \
  -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  https://api.github.com/repos/OWNER/REPO/actions/runs/RUN_ID/rerun-failed-jobs
```

GitHub also documents reruns as available up to 30 days after the original run. ([docs.github.com](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/how-tos/manage-workflow-runs?utm_source=openai))

GitHub Actions REST API rerun-failed-jobs cancelled job conclusion rerun cancelled jobs

💡 Result:

`POST /repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/runs/{run_id}/rerun-failed-jobs` is documented to rerun **failed jobs and their dependent jobs**. GitHub’s docs don’t say that it includes jobs whose conclusion is `cancelled`, so don’t rely on this endpoint to rerun cancelled jobs. [1]

For a specific cancelled job, use the job rerun endpoint:

```http
POST /repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/jobs/{job_id}/rerun
```

That endpoint reruns the specified job and its dependents. Or rerun the entire workflow with `POST /repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/runs/{run_id}/rerun`. [1]

You can inspect job conclusions with the [list-jobs endpoint](https://docs.github.com/en/rest/actions/workflow-jobs#list-jobs-for-a-workflow-run); it reports each job’s status and conclusion. [2]

Use a full rerun for cancelled nightly builds.

target.side makes nightly rescue call rerun-failed-jobs after cancellation. That endpoint reruns failed jobs and their dependents, but it does not establish reruns for a job whose conclusion is cancelled. The nightly build and its dependent publishing jobs can therefore remain skipped.

Use a full workflow rerun for a stuck nightly build. Keep failed-only reruns for refused nightly jobs.

🐛 Suggested fix
-        failed_only = outcome == "refused" or target.attempt > 1 or target.e2e or target.side
+        failed_only = outcome == "refused" or target.attempt > 1 or target.e2e or \
+            (target.side and not target.nightly)

Do not treat every unfinished nightly run as a replacement app build.

The six-hour schedule run can remain unfinished while build-nightly-app is skipped. newer_unfinished_runs() filters by workflow, branch, run ID, and status only. It does not check whether the run will build or publish an app. rescue() can therefore cancel the stuck app-producing run without rerunning it.

Require the newer run to be an app-producing nightly run before using it as a superseding run.

Both trusted minis carry glaeda-trusted-std-xcode-26.6, but
cmuxs-mac-mini-6 also runs the team dev-build worker as the same user, so
the shipped build should never land there. Seeding keeps both, so
CI_SEED_TRUSTED_POOL is unchanged. build-nightly-app now asks for
["<CI_SEED_TRUSTED_POOL>", "<CI_NIGHTLY_TRUSTED_RUNNER>"]: the trusted pool
and one runner's own glaeda-runner-<name> label (glaeda-cmux-runner's
runner_label()). Either variable empty means Blacksmith, so this is inert
until cmux15's runner is re-registered with that label and the variable is
set.

- runner_label_policy.py: CI_NIGHTLY_TRUSTED_RUNNER may only be a
  lowercase glaeda-runner-* label (also safe inside the JSON runs-on).
- ci-health-report.yml / ci-repo-variables.yml: report it.
- ci-owned-pool-rescue.yml: watch nightly runs only while both are set.
- Docs and tests follow.

Restrict CI_NIGHTLY_TRUSTED_RUNNER to the approved runner.

nightly.yml identifies glaeda-runner-cmux15-glaeda as the only runner approved to build the shipped app. The current policy accepts any glaeda-runner-* label, including the other trusted mini that runs team development builds with the same user and trusted credentials.
