diegosouzapw 037f59666e fix(ci): five workflow defects, one of them shipping the wrong dmg to Intel Macs
Gaps 31, 19, 16, 30 and 12 of the v3.8.49 process dossier.

## 31 — LIVE BUG: an Intel Mac downloads the ARM dmg

electron-builder runs once per macOS job and each run emits its own
`latest-mac.yml` listing only its own dmg — measured at 338 and 350 bytes,
different content, identical filename. `download-artifact` with
`merge-multiple: true` resolves that collision by ARRIVAL ORDER, so one silently
overwrites the other. arm64 won in the published v3.8.48.

Why that breaks Intel, from electron-updater's own selection code
(out/providers/Provider.js):

    files.find(it => [...].some(n => n.includes(process.arch))) ?? files.shift()

The Intel dmg is `OmniRoute-X.Y.Z.dmg` — no arch suffix. On Intel `process.arch`
is "x64", nothing matches, and the fallback takes the FIRST entry. With an
arm64-only manifest that is the ARM build.

So ORDER is the fix, not tidiness: the un-suffixed entry must be first, because
it is the only one reachable through that fallback. `merge-multiple` is now off
(per-artifact subdirectories) and a new
`scripts/release/merge-mac-update-manifest.mjs` merges them deliberately. It
refuses to write when the inputs disagree on version — a manifest stitched from
two builds points at files that were never published together, which is worse
than no manifest.

Validated against the REAL v3.8.49 manifests, not just fixtures: the script
reproduces byte-for-byte the manifest I hand-merged and published, including
both sha512 values and the newer releaseDate.

## 19 — one variable, two opposite machines

`USE_VPS_RUNNER` governed the build and the test jobs together. The build needs
the .113's RAM; the tests need the hosted runner's link. Measured 2026-07-29:
`actions/setup-node` took 20m06s on .113 with 4 concurrent runners versus 16s
hosted (npm cache restore saturating the link), while the tests themselves tied
— 2m54 vs 2m31.

Self-hosted is therefore strictly worse for tests, so rather than add a second
variable to configure, `test-unit`, `test-vitest`, `fast-unit` and `fast-vitest`
are pinned to `ubuntu-latest`. `quality.yml`'s `fast-gates` deliberately keeps
the variable — I have no measurement for it, and guessing is what produced this
gap.

## 16 — a flaky shard sent the publish into the 40-minute build

The artifact reuse filter required `conclusion == "success"` on the whole run, so
any unrelated red shard discarded a perfectly good tree. The artifact is only
uploaded if the Build job succeeded, so its PRESENCE is the accurate signal. Now
it takes the 5 most recent candidate runs and tries each download until one
works. `head_repository.full_name == env.REPO` stays — that clause is the
artifact-poisoning guard, not a filter refinement.

## 30 — the gate that could be bypassed at merge

`check:agent-skills-sync` lived only in quality.yml's PR-only Merge-integrity
job, because the CHANGELOG half of that job needs a base to diff against. This
half does not. Keeping it PR-only left a real hole: this cycle's merge trains
landed with `--admin`, which bypasses required checks, so three SKILL.md files
drifted, rode the release squash into `main`, and the sync-back turned them into
a base-red blocking EVERY PR into release/v3.8.50 until #8954. It now also runs
in ci.yml's lint job, which runs on push to `main`.

## 12 — a cancelled gate reads like a passing one

The dashboard already renders ` CANCELLED` per job, so my dossier entry was
imprecise: they do not vanish, they sit buried mid-table. A cancelled job
reported no verdict at all, and this cycle the Vitest job was cancelled in rounds
1, 2 and 3 — it finished only in round 4, revealing a suite broken the whole
cycle plus two production bugs. The summary now opens with a banner naming every
cancelled job and saying plainly that nothing was checked.

    node --import tsx/esm --test tests/unit/mac-update-manifest-merge.test.ts   # 11 pass
    merge against the real v3.8.49 manifests → both dmgs, Intel first
    all four workflows parse; check:workflows --ratchet → 178, baseline 190
