# skips when the newest snapshot is under 600 s old, one cron interval, so it
# only stands in for a late cron. A cron sweep skips when a snapshot is under
# 300 s old, the case where a requested CI run has just stood in for it. A
# full sweep costs 130 to 170 API requests from the GITHUB_TOKEN budget every
# workflow in the repository shares. With a 240 s skip for requested runs and
# full sweep costs about one API request per in-flight run (its job listing)
# plus one per 100 runs listed: about 1,170 for the 1,160 runs in flight at
# 15:30Z on 2026-10-30, at most MAX_JOB_LISTINGS (2,000) job listings a sweep
# (scripts/ci/queue_janitor.py). In 2026-10 that was 130 to 170 requests from
# the GITHUB_TOKEN budget every workflow in the repository shares. With a 240 s skip for requested runs and
# none for the cron, CI being requested hundreds of times an hour drove about
# 12 sweeps an hour, and the budget ran out on 2026-10-06. Now there are about
# 6. The concurrency group keeps one sweep running and one waiting.

Keep idle owned E2E capacity routable when the pool snapshot is truncated.

When the janitor snapshot is truncated, E2E routing returns an empty choice. measure_load returns None at scripts/ci/e2e_runner_pool.py:309-310. pr_runner_pool.decide returns the same empty choice at scripts/ci/pr_runner_pool.py:1704-1705, and the run falls back to the default runner.

Before this change, the same input could select an owned pool. Take one owned label with one idle machine and one idle root runner, with the default queue_rounds of 0. The live counts give that label room for the one machine the E2E run needs. The snapshot's Blacksmith pools show no free machine. pick() returns that owned pool from fits. Removing only the measure_load check does not restore routing, because decide still returns the truncation choice.

Remedy: when the snapshot is truncated and live owned counts are supplied, skip the truncation return in decide for this case only. Limit the candidate pools to owned labels whose live idle machine count and live idle root count cover the run's jobs. Do not use the snapshot's queue counts or its Blacksmith pools in that case. Keep the existing rejection of any choice that is not an owned pool. Return the empty choice when no idle owned label fits. Keep the truncation return for all other inputs.

Review comment at @scripts/ci/e2e_runner_pool.py around lines 309 - 310:
Update measure_load and pr_runner_pool.decide so a truncated snapshot may still
route through an owned pool when live owned counts are supplied. In decide,
consider only owned labels whose live idle machine and root-runner counts cover
the run’s jobs, without using snapshot queue counts or Blacksmith pools; retain
rejection of non-owned choices and return an empty choice if none fit. Keep the
truncation rejection for all other inputs.
