Merged

I couldn't reproduce the failure, so this change is a hardening of the test that may not be the actual cause. The merge-queue test "ten green pulls: a candidate carries eight, the next the other two…" passed alone and 6 times in a row with six CPU-burning loops running. The issue doesn't include the failing log either.

What changed (test/merge-queue.test.ts only, no src/ change)

  • The test took gatesOf(repo)[0] as the eight-pull gate. gatesOf lists gates in the order they answered, so it assumed the eight-pull gate answers first. The test now computes how many commits each gate carries over the base and expects [8, 10], sorted. That means eight on main and the other two stacked on top, whichever gate answers first.
  • The log assertion no longer requires waiting=2 exactly. It checks that the gating 8 pulls since HH:MM line carries a waiting= field. How many pulls are waiting at that instant is also a timing detail.
  • The other assertions are unchanged: two gates, the cap of 8, all ten pulls merged, and the gated 8 and gated 2 log lines.

The file passes (16 of 16) and tsc --noEmit is clean. I didn't touch src/web/, so I didn't run the design lint.

What I left out: I didn't find the real cause, since I couldn't reproduce it and have no failing log. If the forge's check fails this test again, its log will show which assertion failed.

To try it: bun test test/merge-queue.test.ts.

Test-only change, no src/ or UI touched, so nothing to see in the preview. Sorting the per-gate commit counts to [8, 10] keeps the shape the test is named for (eight, then the other two on top) and no longer depends on which gate answers first. Honest about not reproducing the failure. Two things I would do next: (1) keep the waiting check meaningful: waiting=\d accepts any count, so use waiting=[0-2] on the 8-pull gate line to still catch an over-reporting queue. (2) If the forge check fails this test again, put the gate log in the failure message and open an issue with the real cause instead of loosening further.
