Track guessed as N from the FAILING STEP — line 1 of 2, ./compiler/pascal26 test/test_nilpy_star_args_ctor.npy /tmp/test_nilpy_star_args_ctor26, which names test/test_nilpy_star_args_ctor.npy. Not from the job's name or its src: those describe what the job is ABOUT, and this job's recipe spans 2 source file(s). The ranker reads frontmatter, so this line — not the body — decides who works it; correct it if the guess is wrong.

origin/master has advanced 16 commit(s) since this sha. Re-verify at current HEAD before acting — the callback is tagged to the sha that was tested, which may no longer be the state of the tree.

Range

The named sha 18f97d8f5f1f CANNOT be the cause — it touches no buildable file (docs / tickets / tstate only). It is the sha that was TESTED, i.e. the upper bound of an untested range; the cause is somewhere below it.

bad 18f97d8f5f1f, last good 81a10ecb3dba, 5 commit(s) in range — the watcher narrows this by idle bisect; check tstate/TSTATE.md for the current range.

Log

• 2026-09-06 — auto-closed by the seven watcher: test-nilpy#src:test/test_nilpy_star_args_ctor.npy passes at ef03a6282980 (tier full); it was red at 18f97d8f5f1f. Reopening is by a fresh NEW-RED stub, since a second red is a second finding with its own range.
