fix: bound agent mention repository fanout

[seonghobae]

Summary

• Bound scheduled repository pull-request discovery to four concurrent standard-library workers with deterministic output and cancellation on generator exit.
• Keep GitHub CLI execution explicit with shell=False.
• Remove unsupported queue: max workflow keys and use valid workflow-level non-cancelling concurrency.

Verification

• 1218 passed, 16 subtests passed
• agent mention router/sweep branch coverage: 100%
• interrogate: 100%
• actionlint, compileall, diff check: passed

This is a focused current-main successor for the conflicting #1131 changes; it does not carry the unrelated deletions or payload regressions.

Current-head evidence (9e5d783):

• Scheduled repository discovery now uses a bounded four-worker standard-library pool, preserves repository order, and cancels pending futures on generator exit or failure.
• GitHub CLI subprocess invocation explicitly sets shell=False.
• Removed unsupported queue: max keys and retained valid workflow-level non-cancelling concurrency.
• Verified: 1218 passed, 16 subtests passed; router/sweep branch coverage 100%; interrogate 100%; actionlint, compileall, diff check passed.

This is the focused current-main successor for conflicting PR #1131; unrelated deletions and repository-dispatch payload regressions were intentionally excluded. Please review this exact SHA.

[seonghobae]

@opencode-agent @cwl-noema-review Please review current head 9e5d783 with fresh exact-head evidence.

[seonghobae]

This successor is now the closest live owner for the failed Inkspan canary, but its current head fixes one likely first boundary while reopening another known one.

Fresh exact evidence before this comment:

• protected central base: .github/main@9e9f59f3ac1e96a960c021b131d768c238f4c21a;
• fix: bound agent mention repository fanout #1144 exact head: 9e5d7834735854022dd99cf438857673d9960976, Ready and mechanically mergeable;
• Agent Mention Router Quality CI 32250182344: completed/success on that exact head; other security/SAST/SBOM/CodeQL/OSV runs are still queued and therefore non-passing;
• Inkspan target remains ContextualWisdomLab/inkspan#362@422b0bed1c94861c50229fdc160c4bc545292113 against main@3b38ead2d00f44eb578d0689087b9293b3dabe1e;
• its single current @opencode-agent request is source comment 5340228853 from 2026-08-19T09:32:11Z, posted after fix(automation): make @opencode-agent mentions dispatch reliably #1115 and fix(ci): verify trusted uv target-triple output #1136 were integrated; it still has no reaction/receipt and no superseding same-head formal OpenCode review.

The queue: max removal is important. Protected #1115 left queue: max under Actions concurrency; #1144 removes it and reports actionlint success. That makes workflow-schema rejection of the protected router/downstream dispatch files a stronger falsifiable first-causal-boundary candidate for the missing Inkspan receipt than the earlier sweep-starvation hypothesis. Please preserve a RED that runs the same validator against the protected 9e9f59... workflow and proves the unsupported key is rejected before relying on this as RCA.

However, the current #1144 diff restores one workflow-level shared group for both issue_comment and schedule. That recreates the event-class coupling tracked by #814: with GitHub concurrency's one-running/one-pending semantics, a scheduled run can replace a pending interactive run even with cancel-in-progress: false. Removing invalid queue: max should not require restoring that shared group.

Smallest valid shape to test first:

1. no workflow-level concurrency shared across event classes;
2. leave the interactive local issue_comment job unconstrained (or key it uniquely by the source comment id) so one trusted comment cannot replace another pending trusted comment;
3. keep only the scheduled sweep in its own valid job-level concurrency group with cancel-in-progress: false, because schedule ticks are safely coalescible only if the sweep itself re-discovers unacknowledged recent comments;
4. retain the exact-name ledger/idempotency and bounded dispatch payload from protected truth.

There is also a separate bounded-sweep fairness concern not solved by the current parallel fetch: list_recent_pull_requests() now fetches repositories concurrently but still yields each future in deterministic repository order, while the caller still returns after the max_dispatches ceiling. So later-alphabet repositories can still be starved under sustained earlier backlog. Do not conflate that hypothesis with the workflow-schema defect; bind the first post-repair canary to run evidence.

Acceptance for Inkspan is concrete: after this causal repair reaches protected main, the existing exact source request 5340228853 should either receive the durable receipt if the sweep rediscovery window still covers it, or one explicitly superseding canary should be posted only after documenting why the original is outside that bounded window; then require a genuinely new OpenCode generation on unchanged 422b0bed..., passing coverage evidence under current protected central truth, and a formal same-head verdict superseding run 32174591608.

[seonghobae]

@opencode-agent Review exact current head 9e5d7834735854022dd99cf438857673d9960976. Agent Mention Router Quality CI is green; verify bounded four-worker repository fanout, deterministic result ordering, generator cancellation, explicit shell=False, and valid workflow concurrency without reintroducing #1131's unrelated drift. Submit the formal exact-head verdict.

[seonghobae]

Current-head review fix (2026-08-19 KST):

• Found a queue-isolation regression: the PR moved interactive mentions and scheduled sweeps into one workflow-level concurrency group, so a pending run of one class could replace a pending run of the other. It also removed the established downstream queue: max contract.
• Fixed by restoring independent job groups: review-agent-mention-router-local-${{ github.repository }} for comments and review-agent-mention-router-sweep-${{ github.repository }} for schedules, plus queue: max on the downstream Noema/OpenCode dispatch workflows. Restored regression assertions for those contracts.
• Verification: 1218 passed, 16 subtests passed; targeted coverage 100% (router 244 statements / 104 branches, sweep 175 statements / 70 branches); Interrogate 100%; compileall and git diff --check passed.
• New exact head: 83cd72038b113045b3d9a71377ed8d159c6d29fb.

Previous checks are stale for the old head. Revalidate current-head checks and obtain a qualifying independent approval before any normal merge.

[seonghobae]

Exact-current-head regression after the prior canary note:

• protected central base is still 9e9f59f3ac1e96a960c021b131d768c238f4c21a;
• fix: bound agent mention repository fanout #1144 moved from 9e5d7834735854022dd99cf438857673d9960976 to 83cd72038b113045b3d9a71377ed8d159c6d29fb via fix(ci): preserve independent agent mention queues;
• current quality run 32252699135 / job 96067156167 is still in progress, so it is non-passing;
• the exact new commit restores queue: max in .github/workflows/agent-mention-noema-dispatch.yml, .github/workflows/agent-mention-opencode-dispatch.yml, and the local job-level concurrency mapping in agent-mention-router.yml;
• it also changes tests/test_agent_mention_downstream_idempotency.py and tests/test_agent_mention_queue_isolation.py to require that key.

That directly reverses the previous head's valid queue: max removal. queue is not a supported GitHub Actions concurrency mapping member; the supported contract is group plus optional cancel-in-progress. Do not encode an unsupported workflow key into tests to preserve pending mentions.

Keep the useful part of this head—the separation of interactive and scheduled event classes—but implement it with valid Actions semantics. The smallest safe repair remains:

1. remove every queue: max occurrence from executable workflows and make the regression assert its absence;
2. do not restore one workflow-level group shared by issue_comment and schedule;
3. give scheduled sweep its own job-level non-cancelling group so schedule ticks may coalesce;
4. do not put the interactive local mention job behind a one-running/one-pending concurrency group unless the group is unique per source comment/invocation; otherwise multiple trusted comments can still replace a pending one;
5. preserve downstream exact invocation-key idempotency and bounded payloads without relying on a nonexistent queue-depth setting.

Please make the workflow-schema RED explicit: run the same validator/actionlint contract against a fixture containing concurrency: {group: ..., queue: max} and require rejection, then GREEN the current three workflow files. After the head moves, reacquire all required exact-head gates; predecessor success must not transfer.

Inkspan acceptance fixture remains unchanged: source comment ContextualWisdomLab/inkspan#362 comment 5340228853 on exact Inkspan head 422b0bed1c94861c50229fdc160c4bc545292113 still has no receipt and no superseding same-head OpenCode review. Do not post another Inkspan mention until this control-plane defect is causally repaired.

[seonghobae]

Current-head repair update (2026-08-19 KST):

• The branch had acquired an unrelated self-mutating repair-pr-1144-final.yml workflow with contents: write that edited and pushed its own PR branch. I removed that temporary authority path.
• Kept the valid safety fix as ordinary reviewed source: every review-agent gh api subprocess now has a 30-second timeout and a regression test for TimeoutExpired; CHANGELOG records the bounded behavior. Independent interactive/sweep queues and downstream queue: max remain intact.
• Verification: 1219 passed, 16 subtests passed; router coverage 100% (248 statements / 104 branches); sweep coverage 100% (175 / 70); Interrogate 100%; compileall and git diff --check passed.
• New exact head: d53fdfd4381d93e40a71984ff1f058605c0cb13c.

Please revalidate all checks and obtain a qualifying independent approval against this exact head before normal merge. No bypass or self-approval was used.

[seonghobae]

Correction after fresh primary-source verification against the current GitHub Actions documentation: my earlier wording that concurrency.queue: max is unsupported was stale and must not drive this repair. GitHub now explicitly documents queue: max for workflow/job concurrency (up to 100 pending runs); the invalid combination is queue: max with cancel-in-progress: true. Treat this edited comment as superseding the prior text.

Fresh exact-head owner-path state remains:

• protected central base main@9e9f59f3ac1e96a960c021b131d768c238f4c21a;
• fix: bound agent mention repository fanout #1144 is still Draft/mergeable at exact head d53fdfd4381d93e40a71984ff1f058605c0cb13c;
• current fix: bound agent mention repository fanout #1144 changed-file inventory is only CHANGELOG.md, scripts/ci/agent_mention_router.py, scripts/ci/agent_mention_sweep.py, tests/test_agent_mention_router.py, and tests/test_agent_mention_sweep_regressions.py;
• protected agent-mention-router.yml uses queue: max on the local interactive job and a separate non-cancelling sweep group; protected agent-mention-opencode-dispatch.yml also uses an invocation-key group with queue: max;
• current exact fix: bound agent mention repository fanout #1144 Agent Mention Router Quality CI run 32253066547 is completed/success, consistent with queue: max being valid current syntax.

So the current PR body's statement that it “removes unsupported queue: max” is itself stale relative to live GitHub semantics, and removing queue: max would be a regression for durable pending interactive requests because the default queue: single replaces an existing pending run in the same group. Preserve current valid queue: max wherever queued durability is intentional and never pair it with cancel-in-progress: true.

More importantly, exact current source now makes the sweep-starvation hypothesis concrete rather than speculative. At d53fdfd..., list_accessible_repositories() returns sorted(set(names)). list_recent_pull_requests() submits a future for every repository to a four-worker pool, but stores futures in that same sorted order and then consumes them with for repository, future in futures: yield from future.result(). The concurrency therefore reduces fetch latency but does not change candidate consumption order. sweep() consumes those candidates in repository order and returns immediately once dispatched >= max_dispatches (default 20). There is no persisted cursor, rotation seed, age-priority merge, or other cross-run fairness state. Consequently, if repositories earlier in sorted order repeatedly supply at least the dispatch ceiling of fresh eligible requests, every scheduled invocation can terminate before a later repository is consumed; four-worker fanout alone cannot make the later repository fair.

The unchanged Inkspan acceptance fixture is ContextualWisdomLab/inkspan#362@422b0bed1c94861c50229fdc160c4bc545292113, source request comment 5340228853, still without a durable receipt or superseding same-head OpenCode verdict.

Please make the next change test-first on this same canonical #1144 branch. A realistic RED should execute at least two consecutive bounded sweeps over a stable repository set where earlier repositories can fill max_dispatches, then prove a later repository's eligible request remains starved across runs under the current selection algorithm. GREEN should add the smallest bounded fair/cursor rotation (or an equivalently deterministic fair selection) so the later eligible request is eventually selected while preserving: the hard dispatch ceiling, per-repository failure isolation, lazy cutoff pagination, exact invocation-key/artifact-ledger idempotency, deterministic behavior for a given cursor state, and separate interactive vs scheduled concurrency. If live run evidence disproves this source-level starvation path, repair the first observed ledger/trust/dispatch/acknowledgement/downstream boundary instead rather than adding speculative state.

After the exact head moves, reacquire central quality/security/SBOM/provenance checks and canary the existing Inkspan source request if it remains inside the sweep window; post exactly one superseding canary only if that original request has actually aged out. Do not remove valid queue: max as a schema fix.

Exact-head regression on the canonical foreign owner path for the blocked Inkspan canary.

Fresh state immediately before this comment:

• protected central base: main@bbedc1a51ec1a2421f129955c629b3cd0507a4ec;
• fix: bound agent mention repository fanout #1144: Ready/mergeable at exact head edce21f4bc120e62a88399e19026c27b35070230;
• Inkspan acceptance target remains ContextualWisdomLab/inkspan#362@422b0bed1c94861c50229fdc160c4bc545292113, source request comment 5340228853, with no superseding same-head OpenCode verdict.

The rebase/refresh lost the already-established correction from this same PR. Current GitHub Actions documentation explicitly supports concurrency.queue: max (up to 100 pending runs); the invalid combination is queue: max with cancel-in-progress: true. Protected central truth currently uses separate local/sweep job concurrency, with queue: max on the interactive queue. By contrast, edce21f4... again removes the queue: max contracts and installs one workflow-level review-agent-mention-router-${{ github.repository }} group shared by issue_comment and schedule.

That revives two causal defects already captured in #814 / this PR's own superseding comment 5342592736: (1) default queue: single can replace an existing pending trusted mention, and (2) sharing one workflow-level group couples scheduled sweeps back to interactive mentions. The passing quality test is therefore false-green with respect to the incident contract because the tests were changed to require removal of a now-valid durability key.

Smallest TDD repair on this existing branch:

1. RED: a queue-isolation regression proving two pending trusted interactive requests are retained while a scheduled sweep is active, and that queue: max is present only on groups where pending durability is intentional and never paired with cancel-in-progress: true.
2. GREEN: restore separate interactive/sweep concurrency; preserve queue: max for the durable interactive/downstream queues; do not share one workflow-level group across issue_comment and schedule.
3. Separately RED the bounded sweep fairness defect already identified at d53fdfd...: run at least two sweeps where earlier-sorted repos repeatedly fill max_dispatches and prove a later eligible repo remains starved. Then add the smallest deterministic fair/cursor selection that preserves the hard dispatch ceiling, lazy cutoff pagination, per-repo error isolation, exact invocation-key/artifact-ledger idempotency, and bounded fanout.
4. Reacquire all exact-head required checks/reviews after the head moves; predecessor success does not transfer. After protected integration, reuse Inkspan comment 5340228853 while it remains in lookback rather than posting a duplicate canary.

Current-head blocker on edce21f4bc120e62a88399e19026c27b35070230 against live main@bbedc1a51ec1a2421f129955c629b3cd0507a4ec: this patch reverses the protected local/sweep isolation contract from incident #814 and rests on a false current premise that concurrency.queue: max is unsupported. GitHub Actions now explicitly supports queue: max for workflow/job concurrency; the default single pending slot cancels/replaces the prior pending run, while queue: max retains a bounded pending queue (and is invalid only when combined with cancel-in-progress: true).

The diff recreates the exact queue-loss shape already proven by #814: it restores one workflow-level review-agent-mention-router-${{ github.repository }} group shared by interactive issue_comment and scheduled sweep events, removes the job-level local/sweep split, and deletes queue: max from interactive/invocation-key groups. Recent sibling canaries remain unacknowledged, so this is not a harmless syntax cleanup. The four-worker fanout and explicit shell=False change are separable.

Smallest causal remedy: preserve the protected job-level local/sweep split; retain queue: max on interactive and invocation-key groups where it is not paired with cancel-in-progress: true; restore the executable regression contract accordingly; then regenerate exact-head quality/security evidence. Separately continue #814's fairness/receipt RCA—parallel repository fetches do not by themselves prove later repositories cannot starve behind max_dispatches.

I attempted to submit this as a formal REQUEST_CHANGES review on the exact head, but GitHub correctly rejected self-review with HTTP 422; no formal review was created. The do-not-merge label is therefore the explicit owner-path guard for this current-head regression until an independent reviewer can bind a verdict.
