Add one black-box regression test proving process-level help, in-session
help content, and context-scoped tab completion work correctly when
exercised together in one continuous session (context switches +
completion + help lookups), not just individually as each was already
covered by tasks 1.6/2.3/3.5. This closes the final task of the
xce-test-cli-ux implementation plan (23/23).

Live-cluster validation, no source changes: independently reproduced
(implementer + reviewer, separate deploys) that a destructive command
inside a sourced file, run within an otherwise-interactive session,
still prompts for confirmation with wording identical to a directly-typed
invocation, is skipped once the session toggle is set, and that decline
does not trip set -e's abort-on-failure (Req 13.7). Structurally confirmed
the gate has no code path capable of distinguishing a sourced line from
a typed one. Bumps bug-1797's occurrence count (recurred via the source
call path, confirmed pre-existing, not new).

Live-cluster validation, no source changes: independently reproduced
(implementer + reviewer, separate deploys) that all five destructive
commands prompt by default, treat decline and real-SIGINT identically as
"not run" (not "failed", the deliberate Req 9.9 exception to Req 1.3),
skip the prompt under --yes/non-interactive/session-toggle, and match
Req 9.5's exact enumeration including its reversal-action exclusions.
Logs bug-1796 (misleading perror() text from stale errno in
cmd_qctrl/hostctrl/jobkill) and bug-1797 (cmd_qctrl queue-name leak on
the RPC-error path) as pre-existing, deliberately-deferred findings.

jobrun/jobsub/jobstart/jobfinish/jobfail validation, resupdate, set) from
stdout to stderr, so a command's successful result data and its

Gates jobkill and shutdown unconditionally, qctrl only when action is
QUEUE_CLOSE/QUEUE_INACTIVE (not ACTIVE/OPEN), hostctrl only when
HOST_CLOSE (not OPEN), and upgradeconfig unconditionally -- exactly
Requirement 9.5's enumeration, with jstart/jfinish/jfail (worker
context) correctly untouched. Each gains a -y/--yes bypass flag via
flagspec_t; cmd_set gains -y/+y calling confirm_set_skip(). A decline
maps to a plain `return 0` (success-coded, distinct from a negative
failure return) per confirm.h's own documented contract -- this means
a declined destructive command inside a source'd file under `set -e`
won't trip abort-on-failure, a real but narrow interaction only
reachable when a human is actively declining; left for task 4.3 to
test explicitly. 1321/1321 across the full controller suite (+3),

Routes all 26 blocking xcecli_* call sites across ~24 commands through
xcetest_run_interruptible(), wires xcetest_set_active_connection() at
execute_line()'s dispatch point (active_ctx->ctx, read fresh per
command), and fixes main()'s REPL loop to distinguish a real EOF from
an EINTR-interrupted readline() so Ctrl-C at an empty prompt discards
the line instead of exiting the session.
Live-discovered and fixed bug-1794: fill_job_alloc() never initializes
xce_job_alloc_t's nres_shared/allocs_shared fields -- harmless as stack
garbage before this task, genuine heap garbage once moved into a
heap-allocated ctx block (a necessary consequence of the adapter's
heap-only precondition). Fixed by switching all ~26 call-context
allocations from malloc to calloc uniformly. Also fixed an argv-aliasing
hazard: cmd_hello/cmd_jobckpt's -m values aliased optarg, which
execute_line() frees immediately after return including on the
abandoned path -- now strdup'd into the heap block.
Also closed a safety-critical gap this task's own design introduced
(bug-1795): before this task the REPL was fully synchronous, so
leave_ctx() (called by up/quit) could never run while an RPC was
outstanding. An abandoned worker can now persist past command
completion, so leave_ctx() tearing down the connection could
use-after-free it. Fixed via xcetest_wait_connection_idle(), which
blocks on the same per-connection semaphore the adapter already
tracks, then releases it, proving no worker is active before teardown.
Proven with a deterministic white-box RED->GREEN test, since the race
itself is too timing-dependent for a black-box test to reliably force.

getopt()/hand-rolled parsing to the shared flagspec_t + getopt_long

malformed flag with a usage summary and, where a close match exists,
a suggestion. cmd_walcompare's hand-rolled parser needed a leading '+'
in its optstring to preserve its pre-migration flags-only-before-
positionals behavior. Also fixes bug-1704: cmd_qctrl's uninitialized
action variable, now sentineled and rejected when unset, mirroring
cmd_hostctrl's existing pattern -- this also makes the destructive-

cmd_join_worker's simulated-worker maxmem default was 64 bytes -- a
leftover from when the field was MB-scale, unfixed when maxmem became
bytes-canonical elsewhere. Now 64 * 1024 * 1024. Extracted the
argument-parsing/defaulting logic into join_worker_parse_attrs()
(join_worker_args.c), since it runs entirely before the function's
network call and is a genuine testable seam -- same precedent as
task 2.5's joblist_display.c. Verified live against a real deployed
cluster (workerlist reports MaxMem: 64.00 MB) plus a permanent 5-test

(logged as bug-1793) but are deliberately left unfixed here since
USAGE_JOIN_WORKER's help text currently documents their stale values

Eight display/text defects in test.c: worker_status_str's "UNKOWN"
typo, cmd_runtasks's "sequentail" typo (display-only, verified inert
against the real launch_type consumer), cmd_reslist's right-justified
columns and unlabeled hex Flags (now matching workerlist/state_raw's
conventions), joblist's raw-epoch timestamps (now via a format_job_time
helper delegating to the same formatter ctrlstatus already uses) and
combined NTasks column split into MinTasks/MaxTasks, job_state_str's
missing raw-state fallback for ambiguous RUN+EXIT (mirroring
print_jobinfo's existing pattern), and getconf's no-op group/config

matching the three sibling print functions' convention).
worker_status_str/job_state_str/format_job_time are pure functions with

cmd_source reuses rcfile_load() unmodified for line execution, adding
an explicit missing-file check (bypassing rcfile_load's silent-missing
policy, which is correct for its one existing startup-rc-file caller
but wrong for an explicit user command) and a realpath()-canonicalized
in-flight path stack that rejects direct or transitive cycles instead
of hanging. Registered in all four command contexts. Translates
rcfile_load's raw positive "aborted" return to -1 so an enclosing
source line correctly sees a transitively-aborted nested source as
failure, not success (preprocess_and_run only treats negative returns
as failure). Proven via real fixture files driven through the black-box

Registers libedit's GNU-readline-compatible rl_attempted_completion_function
under g_interactive only. The candidate generator reads active_ctx->commands[]
live on every call, so completion correctly tracks context switches rather
than freezing at registration time. Single/multi-match UI (auto-complete vs.
double-Tab candidate listing) is entirely libedit's stock behavior once given
a correct context-scoped generator. Proven via a black-box pty test verified
sound against a false-positive risk: xce_test has no fuzzy command-name
matching, so an uncompleted partial token cannot coincidentally trigger the
same effect a real completion would. Also fixes a harness bug (bug-1792):
disabling kernel ECHO for output capture was silently suppressing libedit's
own completion feedback too; added clitest_spawn_ex() with disable_echo as
an explicit parameter, clitest_spawn() unchanged for existing callers.

A registry of per-connection locks, acquired (interruptibly) before

abandoned call's worker is never running concurrently with a new call

review round 1 found the initial pthread_mutex_t implementation relied
on behavior POSIX classifies as undefined for a non-owning-thread

sim_reconcile_unaccounted_jobs() (the mechanism that replays historical
DISPATCH decisions in --sim mode) reconstructed a job's allocation but
never called the picker's on_dispatch() hook, unlike the live allocator
path which always does. The job therefore stayed a live candidate in the
picker's own pendJobs bookkeeping, and sim_picker_thread_fn() (which
unconditionally PENDs whatever it is still offered) kept re-offering and
re-PENDing it every subsequent round -- live-observed as an already-
dispatched job receiving a bogus PEND decision (bug-1759: 22/50 jobs in
one batch; bug-1779: 5/10 array-job elements).
This directly contradicts scheduler-sim-decision-parity's own design.md,
which already documented "the picker never re-decides an already-resolved
job" as the correct assumption -- the implementation had drifted from it.
Fixed by calling on_dispatch() immediately after reconstructing the job's
allocation, mirroring sched_allocator()'s own live-dispatch ordering.
test_sim_verify_no_false_mismatch_across_round_separated_dispatch's own
fixture had baked in the stale-PEND symptom as "expected" data; updated to
match the corrected behavior (dispatch-only round 1, empty filler rounds).
Both design docs updated in place with correction notes.
/kiro-validate-impl returned GO: 21/21 requirement ACs covered, zero
boundary violations (parjob_allocator/seqjob_allocator/alloc_cache/

Closes two minor documentation gaps the audit found:
- tasks.md Implementation Notes now records tasks 2.1/2.2's colocated

test_info_job_reports_state_queue_priority now expects "Tasks: min =

Extends xce-test-multihost with a second scenario: a 2-element array
job (jobsub -a 2) where each element independently requests the same
nproc+1 task count as the plain-job scenario. Drives element [0]
through the identical RUN-then-DONE, both-hosts-started proof, and
confirms its jobinfo Slots: field matches the plain job's exactly
(Requirement 5.5). Traced the array-expansion path
(handler.c's sched_on_job_array()/clone_job_submit_data()) to confirm
no array-specific shortcut bypasses apply_job_task_count() -- each
element flows through the same core_build_job() ingest as a
standalone job.
Fixes a real bug (bug-1775) found while building this: an array
element's bracketed jobid (e.g. "<base>[0]") was misparsed by
grep -E's bracket-expression syntax, causing a false negative in the
per-host verification. Added ere_escape(), a no-op for plain

Extends xce-test-multihost's harness to submit one real job via plain
jobsub, sized (nproc+1 tasks, queried live) so it must span both
mh-worker-1 and mh-worker-2, poll jobinfo for RUN then DONE, and
confirm each allocated host's own log independently shows it starting
its share of the job's tasks.
The two allocated hosts take genuinely different code paths: the
controller sends startjob only to the head-node host
(dispatch_a_job_(), job.c); that host's job_start_remote_task()
relays a runtasks request back through the controller
(do_runtasks()/run_tasks_on_host(), task.c) to the other host, which
independently calls submit_fork_task(). The harness's per-host
verification accepts either line as legitimate evidence for that
host, since which host lands as head node is an allocator-internal
detail this test correctly doesn't hardcode.

New xce-test-multihost skill deploys one controller/scheduler node
plus two named xcecd_virtual workers, following xce-test-resources's
single-node deploy pattern and xce-test-ha's pre-flight zombie-process/
port-check convention (chosen over a fresh-mktemp-per-run model
specifically because a meaningful pre-flight check needs a stable
directory -- see tasks.md's Implementation Notes). Confirms all four
roles join via their own log lines and tears down cleanly with a
HARNESS_READY sentinel. No job scenario wired in yet -- that's tasks
4.2/4.3.

test_parjob_e2e_multislot.c's standing "bug-1770" assertion now
expects the correct, real primary->minTasks/maxTasks (1/JOB_MAXTASKS)
instead of the buggy always-1 value it used to document. The
PATCH_MAXTASKS_FOR_BUG_1770 block that manually overwrote the
already-ingested resreq's task-count fields is removed entirely --
the full multi-host allocation scenario (2-host commit, per-host
slots) now runs end to end through unmodified real ingest. Header
comment updated to record that bug-1770 is fixed by this feature
rather than describing a live gap.

Extends test_maxtasks_wiring_ingest.c with two tests: (1) a resource-
request update never changes a job's already-dispatched task count,
because core_events.c's live JOB_UPDATE handler never rebuilds
job->schedobj (Requirement 1.4); (2) two otherwise-identical jobs
differing only in requested task count don't collide in the
unsatisfiable-resource-request cache on the fresh-ingest path
(Requirement 5.4).
Adds a new file, test_maxtasks_wiring_sim_driver_parity.c, proving the
simulation driver's real static translator chain
(sim_process_replay_event_message()/replay_event_to_core_event())
applies this feature's wiring identically to the real driver -- a
genuine white-box test of the real sim_loop.c code (following
test_sim_event_loop.c's established #include technique), not a mirror
of its logic. This was split into its own file because
test_maxtasks_wiring_ingest.c already links the full scheduler_srcs
object list for its own task-3.1 test, which collides at link time
with white-box #include-ing core_events.c/sim_loop.c in one
translation unit; see tasks.md's Implementation Notes.
No production code changed.

Adds test_maxtasks_wiring_ingest.c proving: (1) fresh ingest's
dispatched primary resreq reflects a real multi-task job's requested
count via the real core_build_job()/JOBS_PUSH path; (2) fresh ingest
and snapshot-restore ingest derive the identical task count for an
equivalent job, asserted both against expected constants and via
direct cross-comparison (Requirement 5.6); (3) a single-task job
reaches identical real host-selection/allocation behavior through the
live allocator dispatch chain, proving the feature is a true no-op
for maxTasks==1 (Requirements 3.1/3.2). No production code changed --
tasks 2.1/2.2 already wired the fix; this adds cross-call-site and
behavioral proof neither of those isolated tests attempted.

Adds white-box tests for job_start_remote_task()'s launch-type gate
(MPI types defer to their own remote-launch mechanism; default type
fans out via xcecli_runtask() across every allocated host, verified
via a #define-before-#include mock capturing taskrun/taskhost
contents) and create_mpi_cmdline()'s host-list/command construction
for openmpi and mpich. Zero production code changes -- this closes a
previously zero-coverage gap in existing, unmodified worker code
(Requirement 4.4), independent of this feature's resreq wiring work.

snapshot_load.c's job-restore path now calls apply_job_task_count()
with the job's already-restored mintasks/maxtasks, right after its
resreq parse succeeds and before snapshot_build_schedobj() reads the
resreq's task count for its fingerprint. This is the simulation/replay
driver's only live call site (xce_sched_core_load_snapshot(), reached
via --sim), independent of and parallel to task 2.1's fresh-ingest
wiring in core_events.c.

core_build_job() now calls apply_job_task_count() right after its
resreq parse succeeds and before core_build_schedobj() reads the
resreq's task count for resreq_fp — so a freshly-submitted multi-task
job's dispatched primary resreq reflects its real requested min/max
task count instead of the previous always-one-task hardcode.
Tracked follow-up (not blocking, see tasks.md Implementation Notes):
test_repl_breakpoints_inspection.c:735 hardcodes an incidental
"Tasks: min = 0, max = 0" byproduct of a fixture's parse_select()
failure; now correctly reports (1,1) per Requirement 1.2. Fix folded
into task 5.1's full-suite regression pass.

Adds apply_job_task_count() to overwrite a standalone primary resreq's
minTasks/maxTasks with a job's real requested task count, no-op for
COMPOUND/ALTER nested primaries, with a defensive min>max clamp.
Closes the gap that lets scheduler-allocation's multi-host allocator

Validation-only: both sequential and chaotic HA soaks pass cleanly on
the final commit (zero job loss/divergence/stall), independently
re-run and confirmed by the reviewer. Worker-rejoin-resync coverage in
the soak is live evidence task 5.2's cache_clear_cb fix holds under
real primary failover. Standing caveat: bug-1770 means this soak (like
the rest of the feature) can only exercise seqjob's rewrap and the
cache dispatch/clear wiring -- parjob_allocator has no live production
path until that separate gap is fixed (Req 9.4).
This completes all 17 sub-tasks of the scheduler-allocation feature.

this feature (meson.build, test_core_events.c, test_job_update.c,
test_resource_accounting.c) contain only pure additions or link-scaffold
replacement, zero altered assertions; confirmed every existing
COMPOUND/ALTER-dispatch test is byte-identical to its pre-feature state
despite task 5.1's shared sched_make_primary_alloc_() change. Full suite:

Drive a real multi-slot parallel job through the actual production
dispatch path -- real sched_init(), real queue/worker/job ingest via
xce_core_push_events(), a real scheduling session (exercising task 5.2's
cache-clear wiring), the real sched_allocator() thread, cache lookup,
parjob_allocator's real my_alloc(), host_iter, and commit -- and confirm
the resulting job allocation genuinely spans 2 hosts with correct
per-host slot counts (Req 4.1, 4.2, 4.3).
Discovered and logged bug-1770: parse_resreq_primary() unconditionally
hardcodes primary->minTasks/maxTasks to 1 regardless of what a job
actually requests, and nothing in the real ingest pipeline ever copies
the job's own submitted task count (correctly threaded from the
apiserver's num_processors/maxnum_processors all the way to
xce_sched_job_t.mintasks/maxtasks) onto the nested xce_primary_resreq_t
fields the allocator dispatch actually reads. This predates the feature
by ~7 months and is out of this spec's scope to fix, but it means
parjob_allocator has zero live production path until a dedicated
follow-up lands. The test compensates with one clearly-labeled patch of
the real, already-ingested resreq's task-count fields immediately after
real parsing; everything else in the pipeline is unmodified production
code.
Also logged bug-1771 (xce_sched_fcfs's fcfs_del_job() dereferences
job->queue->name with no NULL guard) discovered while building this
task's fixture; worked around by registering the job's queue before
push, mirroring the apiserver's own pre-submission queue validation.

Clear the cache inside core_begin_session_internal() so a job cached as
unsatisfiable in one session is re-evaluated fresh in the next (Req 7.2).
An initial weak-symbol cast-based approach was rejected: it corrupted
xce_sched_sim_driver_t.alt_events_file, since core_begin_session_internal()
is shared between driver.c (real xce_scheduler_t) and sim_loop.c (a
structurally different, deliberately isolated sim driver struct with no
cache field at the same byte offset) -- the strong cache_clear() symbol
won unconditionally for both, invisible to ASAN and untested by any
test_sim_*.c file.
Fixed via a driver-registered callback: xce_sched_core_t gains a
cache_clear_cb hook (NULL by default, per xce_sched_core_init()'s
full-struct memset), set only in main.c's driver-mode branch --
mirroring the existing on_decision/xce_core_set_decision_cb() pattern.
--sim mode returns before that registration is ever reached, so its hook
stays NULL and core_begin_session_internal()'s guarded call is a no-op.
The real xce_scheduler_t-casting adapter lives in alloc_cache.c rather
than driver.c, since ~11 tests white-box-include driver.c without
linking alloc_cache.c.

Wrap sched_make_primary_alloc_() -- the single choke point all three
primary-resreq shapes (standalone, compound-nested, alter-nested via
compound delegation) already funnel through -- with a cache lookup
before allocation and a cache insert on exhaustion. On a hit, pend the
job immediately via the same make_pendreason()/add_job_preason() path
every exhaustion case already uses, without invoking either allocator
(Req 7.3, 7.4, 7.5).
A nested primary has no real per-primary schedobj, so
sched_primary_cache_obj_() synthesizes one on the stack per dispatch for
cache-key purposes; verified memory-safe since alloc_cache.c's
build_key_() copies the fingerprint/identity by value synchronously
before the stack frame unwinds.
Log bug-1768 (compound/alter-nested primaries never get real slot/rusage
availability checks -- seqjob/parjob's prepare_allocation hooks no-op
whenever ctx->schedobj->tag != XCE_RESREQ_PRIMARY) and bug-1769
(sched_make_alter_allocation() type-confuses xce_compound_schedobj_t*
as xce_sched_obj_t*, a ~112-byte heap over-read, currently untested).
Both are pre-existing and out of this feature's scope; discovered and
confirmed while building this task's dispatch tests.

Task 4.3's multi-host merge itself was already implemented and verified
by task 4.2. The one unproven clause -- job-level shared-resource
allocation computed once regardless of host count -- is now covered by
test_shared_resource_debited_once_regardless_of_host_count, using a
PER_JOB (not PER_TASK) global resource so a per-bucket-repeated
computation can't coincidentally sum to the correct total. Mutation
testing (a deliberately injected duplicate per-host shared debit)
confirms the test fails exactly as expected; production code required
no change.

Replace parjob's return-0 stub with a real multi-host allocator: for each
candidate plan, walk buckets in the given (descending) order, claiming a
distinct host per bucket via a fresh host_iter excluding hosts already
claimed elsewhere in the same plan attempt. On a bucket failure, reverse
every earlier successful claim's provisional debit via
sched_ctx_uncommit_host() before advancing to the next plan (Req 4.2, 4.4,
4.5, 4.6, 4.7).
Fix parjob_prepare_allocation() to compute each bucket's want from that
bucket's own slot count (ctx->nslots) instead of a fixed value, and reset
ctx->alloc_req.host at the top of each bucket's scan so host_iter's
pre-filter can't inherit a stale want from a differently-sized prior
bucket (safe: sched_try_alloc_on_host_() always repopulates it from the
real per-bucket want before its own authoritative check runs).
Add a maxTasks<=1 guard matching Req 4 AC1's precondition, needed because
a snapshot-restored job with unpopulated maxTasks==0 (pre-existing,
tracked separately as bug-1767) would otherwise reach parjob's now-real
allocator instead of being silently ignored as before.
On full success, merges every claimed bucket into one xce_job_alloc_t via
make_job_alloc()'s existing runtime-sized host array, satisfying task
4.3's multi-host commit scope as well.

Add the real xce_alloc_plan_iter_t for parjob: for host-count k=1..maxTasks
(ascending, most-preferred-first), generate one balanced partition of
maxTasks into k buckets (floor/ceil split, remainder to the first rem
buckets), which is descending by construction. Pure function of maxTasks
alone -- never dereferences sched -- with a real pthread_testcancel()
cancellation point and stable post-exhaustion NULL (Req 2.1-2.6, 4.1).
my_alloc()/parjob_prepare_allocation() remain untouched stubs; wiring the
iterator into real allocation is task 4.2.

Add a dedicated equivalence suite (test_seqjob_rewrap_equivalence.c)
covering multi-host fixtures the trivial single-host test doesn't reach:
select-filter-only rejection, resource-only rejection, a combined
select-then-resource-then-success ordering, and per-host debit
correctness. The iteration-order test is grounded in the deleted
pre-rewrap sched_collect_workers() code path (verified via git show
against the parent commit) and the unmodified xlist.c primitive, not
merely in host_iter.c's own traversal, so it proves equivalence to the
old behavior rather than internal self-consistency.

Restructure seqjob's my_alloc() as a trivial single-bucket case over the
shared xce_alloc_plan_iter_t/xce_host_iter_t contracts, replacing its own
inline worker-collection loop. Guard seqjob_prepare_allocation() to
maxTasks == 1, closing the fan-out gap for the parallel allocator's later
fix (Req 9.1, 4.6).
Export sched_try_alloc_on_host_() from resource.c (drop static/va_list,
plain (worker, sched, ctx) signature) so seqjob calls the real per-host
try-alloc leaf instead of a private duplicate; delete the now-dead
sched_try_alloc_on_hosts() variadic wrapper. Also wires host_iter.c into
the production scheduler_srcs list (task 2.1 only added it to testsuite).

Adds alloc_cache.c: xce_cache_key_t, cache_key_ops (the corrected
three-way, 0-means-equal .cmp -- an inverted-boolean version was a
real bug found during design review), and cache_lookup/insert/clear
against a real kvtab_t (constructed matching xce_select.c's
sel_node_table_init() precedent). Cache values are a boxed reason-
category int, not a bare hit/miss sentinel, satisfying Req 7 AC5's
requirement that a hit reproduce the original pend-reason category.
unsatisfiable_cache lives on xce_scheduler_t per Req 7 AC1.

Adds host_iter.c: the one shared xce_host_iter_t implementation,
lazily filtering sched->core.workers by select expression
(sched_meet_host_selection, unchanged) and resource availability
(sched_check_host_satisfy, unchanged), with a real cancellation
point per candidate visited. xce_alloc_plan_t gains a ctx field
(xce_sched_ctx_t*) so the iterator can reach the scheduler/select
expression/staged resource-want -- additive to task 1.1's approved
interface, NULL-guarded at init(). Test proves the core design
property this spec exists to establish: a host too small for one
search remains a valid candidate for a later, smaller search via a
fresh iterator instance over the same worker set.
