Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~90 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to This PR changes worker scheduling, foreground throttling, and cooperative cancellation, but the current implementation may fail to reduce background occupancy in the default configuration, allow status polling to keep indexing constrained, and leave foreground dependency work reclaimable. A test helper can also leave an I/O pump open after an assertion failure, potentially hanging validation. These risks can undermine foreground responsiveness and make the change unsafe to merge without fixes or explicit acceptance. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 3 | ❌ 2❌ Failed checks (2 warnings)

594-606: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick winA polling status client can hold the background budget clamped forever.
WorkerPool::note_foregroundwriteslast_fg_activityon every call, andtick_foregroundonly clearsforeground_activeafterfg_holdhas elapsed since the last write. The status handler readssrv.indexer.progress()and touches no worker.A client that polls
agentic/statusto watch indexing progress therefore refreshes the hold window on every poll. If the poll interval is shorter thanfg_hold,foreground_activenever returns tofalse, the low-priority budget stays clamped at the foreground cap, and the rising edge of the first poll also cancels the in-flight low-priority work. The status query throttles the indexing it reports on.Remove the pulse from this handler. Progress polling is not compilation demand.
🐛 Proposed fix
peer.on_request([&srv](RequestContext&, const StatusParams&) -> RequestResult<StatusParams> { - srv.pool.foreground_pulse(); // The progress numbers describe the current round — or the last // one, retained after it ends; the live queue is compacted between // rounds and would read as "nothing was ever indexed". auto& progress = srv.indexer.progress();🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

985-1006: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low valueConsider not accumulating
saturated_cycleswhile the foreground cap binds.
low_budgetiseffective_low_limit(), so the second saturation clause can report saturation that the foreground cap itself created. The scale-up gate at Line 1006 suppresses the scale-up during the foreground window, but it does not reset the counter. When foreground activity drops,saturated_cyclesis already at or abovescale_up_ticks, so a scale-up fires on the first tick after the window on cap-manufactured saturation rather than on observed demand.The effect is bounded — one slot per tick, and
idle_cyclesretires it again — so this is hysteresis polish, not a defect.♻️ Proposed change: hold the counter flat while the cap binds

334-345: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚖️ Poor tradeoffConsider a registration helper so a new handler cannot miss the pulse.
this->server.pool.foreground_pulse();is repeated as the first statement of roughly 25 request handlers inregister_language_featuresandregister_extensions. The repetition is correct today.The failure mode of a future omission is silent: a new feature handler simply would not count as foreground activity, and background indexing would keep the full budget while a user request waits. A thin wrapper around
peer.on_requestfor foreground handlers would make the pulse structural rather than per-handler, and would keep the internal test hooks (clice/internal/*) explicitly outside it.The current shape is explicit and easy to audit, so this is a judgement call rather than a required change.

163-190: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winBound the log read so the regression failure mode does not exhaust test memory.
masterLog()reads everymaster.logfully and joins them. The kill loop calls it up to 150 times. In the passing case the log stays small, so this is cheap.The failure this test exists to catch is exactly the case where the log grows without bound — the incident produced roughly 986 GiB. If the regression returns, this loop reads a rapidly growing file 150 times and the test process runs out of memory before it can report the assertion. Read only the tail, or cap the read size.
♻️ Proposed fix: read a bounded tail of each log
+ const TAIL_BYTES = 4 * 1024 * 1024; + const readTail = (file: string): string => { + const fd = fs.openSync(file, "r"); + try { + const size = fs.fstatSync(fd).size; + const start = Math.max(0, size - TAIL_BYTES); + const length = size - start; + const buf = Buffer.alloc(length); + fs.readSync(fd, buf, 0, length, start); + return buf.toString("utf8"); + } finally { + fs.closeSync(fd); + } + }; const masterLog = () => fs .readdirSync(logsDir, { recursive: true, encoding: "utf8" }) .filter((name) => path.basename(name) === "master.log") - .map((name) => fs.readFileSync(path.join(logsDir, name), "utf8")) + .map((name) => readTail(path.join(logsDir, name))) .join("");Note that a tail read changes the final requeue-count assertion at Line 222 from "all occurrences" to "occurrences in the tail". Keep a full read for that one assertion, or assert on a tail whose size you choose deliberately.

1935-1969: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winMake the resume wait for the pause instead of a single
kota::yield().The resumer defers by exactly one loop iteration, then calls
resume_indexing(). The pause happens inside the round's firstReportemission, which lands after the firstindex_onecompletes. The number of loop iterations that takes is not fixed by this test.If the resumer runs before the pause,
resume_indexing()decrements an unpaused counter and the laterpause_indexing()is never matched. The feeder then parks onresume_eventfor the rest of the round. Thepausedassertion still passes, because the pause did happen; the failure surfaces only aspending_files() != 0, which reads as a product bug rather than a test-ordering problem.Gate the resume on the observed pause so the interleaving is pinned.

970-988: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick winThe foreground low-priority cap is derived from configured capacity instead of live capacity. Both tests set
max_statelessto 10 and expect the foreground allowance to be 3, independent of how many workers are alive. The capacity clamp thatLowCapCountsLiveasserts for the idle path is not applied to the foreground path. On a two-worker pool the foreground allowance of 3 exceeds the live capacity of 2, so the limit never binds and foreground activity raises the background allowance instead of lowering it.

1403-1408: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winAdd a recovery test for a zeroed low-priority budget.
SevereMemoryTickdriveslow_limitto 0, andAIMDMinimumnow confirms a crash backoff preserves the 0. Together these establish that the budget can reach and hold 0. No test confirms the budget leaves 0.If the recovery arithmetic ever computes an increment as a fraction of the current value, a zeroed budget stays zero and background indexing never resumes.
RecoveryClosesGapstarts fromlow_limit2, so it does not cover this case.Add a case that zeroes the budget and then drives
tick_memorywith a low ratio untillow_limitrises above 0.🧪 Suggested test
TEST_CASE(RecoveryLeavesZero) { WorkerPoolFixture f; f.add_stateless(); f.add_stateless(); f.set_low_limit(2); // Severe pressure zeroes the allowance. f.tick_memory(0.05); EXPECT_EQ(f.low_limit(), 0u); // Recovery must lift it off zero, otherwise background indexing // never resumes after the pressure clears. f.tick_memory(0.5); EXPECT_GT(f.low_limit(), 0u); }Also applies to: 1638-1655

Related issue
Fixes #611. Also the scheduler half of the "background indexing starves the foreground" complaints (#602's storm becomes budget-bounded; its cascade semantics are a separate issue).
What changed
Background indexing could take every stateless worker and the machine with it: the dispatch loop spawned the whole queue upfront, requeues fed back into the same round (the #611 busy-loop,
[51294/1]progress and a ~986 GiB log in the wild), and nothing about user activity ever shrank the background budget.Indexing rounds (scheduler mechanics)
WorkerPool::on_stateless_capacitysignal instead of spinning instantworker_unavailablefailures — the perf(index): stop retry busy-loops when workers are unavailable #611 fix proper.Foreground-aware budget
clice/internal/*probes deliberately do not count).Known gaps, deliberately deferred: a foreground requester joining mid-flight does not re-donate priority to already-linked deeper module dependencies, and a caller-supplied cancellation token cannot be composed with the scheduler's (today's only low-priority caller passes none); both are documented at the relevant sites.
Tests
All four suites locally on RelWithDebInfo, plus a Debug (ASan + assertions) build and unit run: unit 1251, integration 351, smoke 3, snap 395,
npm run checkclean.New coverage: unit tests for the round snapshot boundary, pause/resume mid-round, the foreground cap and its falling edge, cooperative-cancel victim selection (armed-source invariant, claim-order, skip-unarmed), and the cancel-grace kill; an integration regression that burns the whole pool's crash budget and asserts the round parks quietly (bounded requeue logging, responsive master) and finishes every file after revival.
