Summary

  • all-required sentinel had continue-on-error: true, which suppresses Gitea Actions status reporting
  • Required check CI / all-required (pull_request) was never created, causing gate-check-v3 (Signal 6) to treat it as missing → BLOCKED on every open PR
  • Phase 3 safety preserved: platform-build carries continue-on-error: true, masking failures to null; all-required script excludes null from bad-list → sentinel exits 0

Fix

  • all-required: continue-on-error: false — always reports result to API
  • Updated comment to clarify Phase 3 safety mechanism
  • platform-build comment updated to reference mc#664 + PR #669 cascade
  • Sentinel also excludes cancelled from bad-list (core-be fix, commit 40d15a90) to tolerate interim CoE-masked failures gracefully

lint-pre-flip: why this sentinel flip needs no run-log proof

lint-pre-flip (internal#219 \u00a7Phase-4 gate) requires run-log proof that a job is green before flipping continue-on-error: true \u2192 false. This requirement is designed to prevent masking regressions in build/test jobs whose green-status could be a lie caused by prior CoE masking.

all-required is a sentinel that aggregates combined-status of other jobs. It does not run tests or builds \u2014 there is no run log to grep for --- FAIL. Its result is a pure function of whether its input jobs report null (CoE-masked), success, or failure. Because platform-build carries continue-on-error: true (mc#664 fix in flight via PR #669), all-required sees null inputs and correctly exits 0.

The run-log proof for the real jobs (platform-build, etc.) is provided by PR #669 passing CI. mc#664 is the tracker.

Test plan

  • YAML validates
  • lint-mask-pr-atomicity: exit 0 (Paired: #669)
  • lint-workflow-yaml passes
  • CI will run on this PR; verify CI / all-required (pull_request) appears in combined status
  • gate-check-v3 passes after all-required reports

The all-required sentinel was reporting no status to the Gitea Actions
API (continue-on-error: true suppresses status entries), so the required
check CI / all-required (pull_request) never appeared in the combined
commit status. gate-check-v3 (Signal 6) treats a missing required
check as failing, causing all PRs to block even when all deps are
green.

Fix: continue-on-error: false on all-required so it always reports.
Phase 3 safety is preserved — platform-build carries continue-on-error:
true, masking its failures to null; all-required sees null as "not bad"
and exits 0. When mc#664 lands (PR #669) the CoE flip on
platform-build completes Phase 3 exit.

Fixes: gate-check-v3 false-positive BLOCKED on all open PRs.
