TS-C1 of epic #1816. The suite registry loses every responsibility that has no live
consumer, and the exception machinery becomes one small script. No selection rule
changes.

What changed

Removed Why it had no consumer
list and explain subcommands, _suite_summary Documentation-only. testing/suites.toml is the inventory.
coarse_filters and its branch of validate_ci_routing ci.yml has no filters: block and no paths-filter action, so the loop iterated nothing.
The second cargo metadata pass discover_rust built its own manifest list. It now shares _metadata_manifests with build_cargo_graph.
_trunk_packages, TRUNK_RE, TRUNK_LINK_RE, HREF_RE, WASM_PACK_RE The registry read Trunk config, then HTML <link data-trunk rel="rust">, then wasm-pack build argument lists, to learn two facts. A module-level JOB_PACKAGES dict states them.
tools/test_cost.py and tools/tests/test_test_cost.py No caller in .github/, tools/justfile, tools/obc or any document. Git history holds it.
_has_real_sleep, REAL_SLEEP_RE and the sleep scan in validate() See below.
quarantine and cadence_conflict schema fields Zero rows, and TS-B gave every mixed binary a route.
check_issue_states, command_check_issues, _validate_issue_block, ISSUE_RE, REPOSITORY_RE, ISSUE_FIELDS Moved to tools/test_exceptions.py (119 lines, standard library plus gh). test-exception-health.yml now runs that script.

JOB_PACKAGES carries five facts, not the four the issue lists: wasm compiles
obc-web-demo, and wasm-bridges compiles obc-web-convert, obc-web-assemble,
obc-skin-preview and obc-flat-device, which TS-D added to
builder/build-wasm-bridges.sh. A job contributes its entry only when the workflow
actually defines a step in that job, and only for packages the Cargo graph knows, so a
renamed job or a deleted crate cannot silently invent a route.

The real-sleep scanner: deleted

git log -S sleep_exception --oneline returns four commits. 0758bf2fe introduced the
registry, b48de14e3 added the online audit, df5890108 is the plan document, and
297b9f44d is the only behavioural one. That commit removed a sleep_exception row
and narrowed the scanner from a regular expression to an AST walk, because the regular
expression had matched time.sleep inside a comment and inside a fixture string. So the
only recorded effect of the scanner in this repository's history is one false positive it
then had to be rewritten to avoid. No commit shows it catching a real sleep. It goes.
The sleep_exception field stays, with its reason and its open issue, as the declaration
it always was.

Correction to the issue

The issue asks for _executed_commands' inlining of *.sh files to be removed. That is
now wrong.
TS-B (#1841) made tools/ci/test.sh the body of the test job, so the
registry must read the commands inside that file to know that the test job runs
cargo nextest. _executed_commands and SCRIPT_RE stay, unchanged. Only the Trunk and
wasm-pack scraping is replaced by the explicit table.

Two further small corrections: the file had moved, so the line numbers in the issue are
off by about 15 (coarse_filters was at :1253, _trunk_packages at :824,
_executed_commands at :846, command_list at :1436); and import os was already
dead before this change, so it goes with the rest.

Tiny errand from the TS-B review

tools/ci/test.sh's usage header now says how to run the instrumented path locally:
OBC_COVERAGE=1 tools/ci/test.sh nextest-fast.

Acceptance: byte-identical selection

select JSON and text, both cargo-filter expressions, gates --list, check and
validate-filters, produced by the registry as it stands on the base commit 180fa1f9f
and by the registry on this branch, both run against the same working tree and the
same SHA-pinned Git ranges, so the script is the only variable. The script is
.scratch/ts-c1-compare.sh in the implementation worktree (scratch is not committed).

IDENTICAL  select-9b6b98679.json     (origin/develop~1)
IDENTICAL  select-9b6b98679.txt
IDENTICAL  select-2b04ae38a.json     (origin/develop~20)
IDENTICAL  select-2b04ae38a.txt
IDENTICAL  select-0135f83c3.json     (parent of 8777d5a6a, the last commit to touch specs/)
IDENTICAL  select-0135f83c3.txt
IDENTICAL  filter-fast.txt
IDENTICAL  filter-fixtures.txt
IDENTICAL  gates.txt
IDENTICAL  validate-filters.txt
IDENTICAL  check.txt

Every diff is empty. Note the method: comparing the tree before and after would have
compared two different sets of changed paths as well as two scripts, and origin/develop
moved under this branch while it was being written, which is exactly the trap that
produced a false diff on the first attempt.

Verification

$ python3 -m unittest discover -s tools/tests -v
Ran 205 tests in 7.646s
OK

$ python3 tools/suite_registry.py check
suite registry OK: 85 suites, 289 discovered execution units

$ python3 tools/suite_registry.py validate-filters
plan-derived CI routing covers 21 workflow jobs and 15 audited selection classes

$ python3 tools/test_exceptions.py --repo timohueser/OpenBikeComputer
exception issue state OK: 1 distinct open issues

$ bash -n tools/ci/test.sh
(no output)

$ python3 docs/build_docs.py --check-links
docs: all internal anchor links resolve

SuiteSelectionTests, CiRoutingTests, ShippedRoutingTests, LocalInterfaceTests and
CargoCadenceTests pass unchanged except for the two CiRoutingTests cases below.
Adapted tests, all of deleted code:

  • test_list_data_is_derived_not_stored — deleted with _suite_summary.
  • test_rejection_rules — the budget issue and quarantine issue rows go; that rule
    is now tools/test_exceptions.py's.
  • test_python_sleep_detection_uses_call_syntax — deleted with the scanner.
  • test_validation_rejects_a_leftover_suite_policy_filter — deleted with coarse_filters.
  • test_a_trunk_build_routes_the_package_its_html_target_links becomes
    test_the_job_table_routes_a_package_no_cargo_argument_names: the same question asked
    of the explicit table, including that a table entry for an absent job routes nothing.
  • ExceptionIssueStateTests moves to tools/tests/test_test_exceptions.py against the
    new module, plus one check that every shipped exception block still has a reason and a
    well-formed issue.

Not run, and why: no Rust, Swift or TypeScript source changed, so no cargo suite,
clippy, cargo fmt or UI sweep applies. CI is the gate.

Whole diff: 279 insertions, 588 deletions across 11 files. testing/suites.toml is
untouched: no row declared quarantine or cadence_conflict, so removing both from the
schema removed no row.

Documentation

docs: commit 20ead07ba. CONTRIBUTING.md and docs/testing.md no longer mention
list, explain, cadence_conflict, quarantine, check-issues or test_cost.py.
The exception section now names the two remaining fields and the script that checks them.
The timing-target paragraph survives the test_cost.py section's removal as a short
"Timing guidance" section, because budget_exception is an exception to those targets.
Neither file carries copy: ownership front matter, so no protected prose was touched.

Out of scope, untouched

select, cargo-filter, run, gates, check, validate-filters, workflow_jobs(),
scan_workflow, _job_body_lines, build_cargo_graph, _reverse_dependency_closure,
the fail-closed rules, the coverage-policy validation inside validate(), and
tools/ci_aggregate.py.

Closes #1821

The suite registry kept several responsibilities nothing reads. They go, and the
exception machinery becomes one small script. Selection behaviour does not change:
`select`, `cargo-filter`, `gates --list`, `check` and `validate-filters` produce
byte-identical output before and after on three bases.

- `list` and `explain` were documentation-only subcommands. Gone, with
  `_suite_summary`.
- `coarse_filters` parsed a `filters:` block out of `ci.yml`. There is no such
  block and no paths-filter action, so its loop and its branch of
  `validate_ci_routing` iterated nothing.
- `discover_rust` built its own manifest list and ran a second `cargo metadata`
  pass. It now shares `_metadata_manifests` with `build_cargo_graph`.
- Trunk config, HTML `<link data-trunk>` and `wasm-pack` command scraping told the
  registry which job compiles which wasm crate. A five-entry `JOB_PACKAGES` dict
  states the same facts directly.
- `tools/test_cost.py` had no caller anywhere. Git history holds it.
- The AST real-sleep scanner goes. Its only recorded effect is the false positive
  it produced in 297b9f4; no commit shows it catching a real one. `quarantine`
  and `cadence_conflict` had zero rows, so both leave the schema.
- `check-issues` and the exception-block shape rules move to
  `tools/test_exceptions.py`, which `test-exception-health.yml` now runs weekly.

`_executed_commands` stays: TS-B made `tools/ci/test.sh` the `test` job's body, so
the registry has to read the commands inside it. The issue asked for its removal
before that landed.

Also adds the missing instrumented-run line to `tools/ci/test.sh`'s usage header.

targets stay; only the removed tool's operating instructions go.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The suite registry removes unused commands and validation paths. Exception checks move to a standalone CLI. Routing uses explicit package mappings. Documentation and tests are updated, and the test-cost tooling is deleted.

Changes

Suite registry maintenance

Layer / File(s) Summary
Standalone exception validation
.github/workflows/test-exception-health.yml, tools/test_exceptions.py, tools/suite_registry.py, tools/tests/*, docs/testing.md
Exception issue validation moves to tools/test_exceptions.py. The script validates exception blocks, deduplicates issue lookups, checks GitHub issue state, and reports errors.
Routing and cadence updates
tools/suite_registry.py, tools/tests/test_suite_registry.py, docs/testing.md
Rust package routing uses explicit job mappings. Coarse-filter checks and obsolete cadence fields are removed. Cargo cadence and WebAssembly routing tests are updated.
Command and workflow documentation
CONTRIBUTING.md, docs/testing.md, tools/justfile, tools/ci/test.sh
Documentation replaces removed suite commands with obc suites check, Cargo commands, and current tier guidance. The coverage environment variable is documented.
Test-cost tooling removal
tools/test_cost.py, tools/tests/test_test_cost.py, docs/testing.md
The test-cost script and its tests are deleted. The timing-comparison documentation is replaced with timing guidance.

Explanation

Issue #1821 requires the registry to stop parsing workflow shell scripts. In tools/suite_registry.py, JOB_BODY_RE and _job_body_lines() still locate and read tools/ci/*.sh, and scan_workflow() scans the inlined shell lines for workflow markers. This leaves shell parsing in the registry. The other reported changes match the issue: the documentation commands, coarse filters, duplicate metadata pass, Trunk/HTML/wasm-pack routing, unused exception fields, real-sleep scanner, and tools/test_cost.py were removed; JOB_PACKAGES, tools/test_exceptions.py, workflow updates, tests, and documentation were added. The reported byte-identical selection and filter outputs support the preservation requirement.

Resolution

Remove the JOB_BODY_RE and _job_body_lines() shell-script expansion from tools/suite_registry.py. Route the affected job packages only through the explicit job-to-package facts, while preserving workflow discovery and the required byte-identical selection and filter outputs.

Comment thread tools/tests/test_test_exceptions.py Outdated
Four review findings, batched.

- `tools/tests/test_suite_registry.py` lost its `unittest.main()` block with the
  test class that happened to sit last in the file, so running the file directly
  printed nothing and exited 0. Restored.
- `JOB_PACKAGES` states facts the registry no longer derives, so a typo or a fifth
  bridge crate would be dropped silently. `JobPackageTableTests` reads the
  `wasm-pack build` directories out of `builder/build-wasm-bridges.sh` and the
  `data-trunk rel="rust"` target out of the page `docs/Trunk.toml` names, resolves
  each to its `[package] name`, and requires set equality with the table.
- The exception-block shape rule is back inside `validate()`, so `obc suites check`
  still rejects a `budget_exception` with no well-formed issue reference. It calls
  `test_exceptions.block_errors`, which both the always-run check and the weekly
  script now share. Only the `gh` lookup stays weekly.
- The moved exception tests no longer print their success line into the unit run.

An empty registry is the goal state: every temporary exception is meant to expire
with its issue. Asserting that at least one reference exists would fail the day the
last one goes. The rule that matters, that every declared block has a reason and a
well-formed issue, stays.
