- Introduced a new test to verify behavior when SSH transport connects but is not ready, ensuring it returns False after the deadline.
- Added comprehensive tests for the `deploy-linux` template, covering various scenarios including missing public keys, VM directory existence, SHA256 mismatches, and failures during ISO creation and VM conversion.
- Implemented tests for SSH-related functions, including connection retries and streaming command execution, ensuring proper handling of exit statuses and progress indications.
- Enhanced existing tests to cover edge cases and ensure robustness in the deployment process.
- Install SIGTERM handler that raises KeyboardInterrupt so act_runner
workflow cancellations trigger the existing VM cleanup path
- Resolve guest_os before the ip_pool block and skip guestinfo IP
injection for Linux (template doesn't read VMX guestinfo to configure
network, causing SSH probe to fail against the wrong IP)

- WinRM MaxProcessesPerShell: apply 100 if below threshold before asserting
- DesktopHeap SharedSection: apply 4096 KB registry value if below threshold before asserting
- Replace cleanmgr (hangs in WinRM Session 0, no window station) with direct
PowerShell cleanup for dumps, WER files and Recycle Bin; DISM already covers
component store and WU cache
- vcpkg git clone/checkout: wrap with EAP=Continue to suppress PS5.1
NativeCommandError on git stderr (gotcha #3 from AGENTS.md)
- template.py: filter CI_EXITCODE:N marker from displayed output
- ci-static-ip.ps1: switch from vmware-rpctool (removed in recent Tools) to
vmtoolsd --cmd; use temp-file redirect to capture output from native cmd

Cleanup now runs after the system reboots post-install (fully settled
state), not right after the WU loop. Sequence: WU loop → static IP →
validation → final reboot → WinRM ready → [cleanup] → autologin →
shutdown → snapshot.

Move disk cleanup out of the Windows Update loop:
- PS scripts: extract Invoke-DiskCleanup function, add -CleanupOnly switch
for standalone post-update cleanup pass.
- Python command: always pass -SkipCleanup:$true during WU loop; after
loop exits 0, run a separate -CleanupOnly invocation (skipped if
--skip-cleanup). Fails fast if cleanup-only returns nonzero.
- Tests: 3 new tests for cleanup-runs-after-loop, skip-cleanup suppresses
it, and cleanup-failure propagates as ClickException.
- ruff --fix: remove unused shutil import, sort imports, fix UP037/UP035.

pypsrp alters terminal tty settings during WinRM sessions. This causes
readline() at the snapshot prompt to receive \r (not \n) on Enter,
printing ^M repeatedly without ever unblocking.
Fix: save termios attributes at command start (before any WinRM work,
terminal is clean) and restore them with tcsetattr(TCSADRAIN) before
the interactive snapshot prompt. Gracefully skips save/restore when
stdin is not a tty (tests, pipes, CI).
Revert the pre-flight snapshot check approach (commit f6f8ffc) — checking
at start was architecturally wrong (snapshot state may change during
provisioning). The prompt stays at the end where it belongs.

pypsrp alters terminal tty state during remote sessions. Any readline()
call after WinRM work receives \r instead of \n on Enter (terminal in
raw mode), causing the prompt to spin printing ^M and never return.
Fix: check for existing snapshot and ask the user at the very beginning
of the command, before any WinRM/pypsrp connections are opened, when the
terminal is still in canonical mode. If the user declines, abort early.
At the end, if the snapshot still exists (race-safe), delete silently
and recreate — no second prompt needed.

input() with a prompt string on some terminals (zsh + Linux Mint) echoes
^M and the prompt doesn't flush before reading, causing the prompt to
appear stuck or not accept input.
Replace with explicit sys.stdout.write()+flush() + sys.stdin.readline()
which guarantees the prompt is flushed before blocking on stdin, and
readline() + .strip() handles both \n and \r\n line endings correctly.
Tests updated to use CliRunner(input=) which populates sys.stdin inside
the runner context (monkeypatching sys.stdin.readline directly is ignored
by CliRunner which replaces sys.stdin entirely).

click.confirm() doesn't strip \r — "y\r" doesn't match "y" and the prompt
loops or fails. Replace with raw input().strip().rstrip('\r').lower() which
handles both \n and \r\n line endings.
Also add --recreate-snapshot flag to skip the interactive prompt entirely
(useful for scripted re-provisioning).
Update snapshot_exists_skip/recreate tests to monkeypatch builtins.input
instead of using CliRunner input=.

execute_ps is fully blocking with no streaming. Add _run_with_heartbeat()
which runs the WinRM call in a daemon thread and prints
" ... still running (Ns elapsed) ..." every 30 s so the operator can
distinguish a hung session from a slow Windows Update pass.
Used only for the toolchain script invocation (the slow step); all other
transport.run() calls keep the direct path.

- --store-credential: after snapshot, writes build-user credentials into
the system keyring using the two-entry scheme (service:meta + service)
that KeyringCredentialStore.get() reads. Works on Windows (Credential
Manager) and Linux (SecretService / file backend).
- --credential-target: keyring target name, default BuildVMGuest (matches
config.guest_cred_target).
- Rewrote module docstring: full prose documentation of both `template
backup` and `template prepare-win` including all 12 provisioning steps.
- 2 new tests covering --store-credential with custom and default targets.
- mypy --strict clean; coverage 90.03%.

Replaces the abandoned PSWSMan approach (New-PSSession hangs on Linux)
with a Python-native implementation using the proven pypsrp WinRmTransport.
- New `template prepare-win` command in commands/template.py: starts VM,
waits for WinRM, uploads and runs Install-CIToolchain-*.ps1, handles
Windows Update 3010 reboot loop (max 10 iterations), installs CI-StaticIp
scheduled task, runs post-setup validation, graceful shutdown, snapshot.
- Helpers: _ps_escape, _wait_tcp, _parse_exit_marker, _wait_winrm.
- 40 new tests in test_commands_template.py covering all major branches.
- Fix test_commands_job.py: patch load_config in _patch_common so tests
don't pick up live /var/lib/ci/config.toml ip_pool and fail on lock.
- Coverage gate: 90.06% (was 88.95% before fix).

Eliminates VMware-Tools IP-detect polling (observed: 39–177 s variance on
Linux host B7 benchmark). When [ip_pool] is configured the orchestrator:
1. Allocates a slot IP from a JSON-backed pool (fcntl-locked on Linux)
2. Injects guestinfo.ip-assignment / netmask / gateway into the cloned VMX
before vmrun start
3. Skips _wait_for_ip entirely — uses the pre-assigned IP immediately
4. Releases the slot in _destroy_clone (all paths: success/failure/interrupt)
New modules / changes:
src/ci_orchestrator/ip_pool.py IpSlotPool + _file_lock context manager
src/ci_orchestrator/config.py IpPoolConfig dataclass; [ip_pool] TOML
src/ci_orchestrator/commands/job.py _inject_guestinfo_ip helper; pool wiring
tests/python/test_ip_pool.py 12 unit tests (acquire/release/persist)
tests/python/test_config.py ip_pool config parsing tests
tests/python/test_commands_job.py pool path + _inject_guestinfo_ip tests
config.example.toml [ip_pool] section (commented example)
Coverage 90.02%; mypy --strict clean.

- Add `retention run` command (ports Invoke-RetentionPolicy.ps1): purges
old artifact/log dirs with aggressive mode when disk space is low.
- Add `template backup` command (ports Backup-CITemplate.ps1): 7z -mx=1
compressed archives in /var/lib/ci/backups/, prunes to keep-count=3,
stops/restarts act-runner.service around the copy.
- Update ci-retention-policy.service and ci-backup-template.service to use
Python; pwsh is no longer required on the Linux host.
- Fix ci-watch-runner-health.service: pass --service-name act-runner
(Linux service name, not Windows act_runner default).
- Fix _list_orphans in vm.py: wrap is_dir() inside the OSError try block
so a stat() failure on an entry is silently skipped rather than raised.
- Mark B5 complete in PhaseB-user-checklist.md.

- SshTransport.run_streaming: incremental channel recv, forwards
stdout/stderr live (no more one-block-at-end). _linux_build uses it
with PYTHONUNBUFFERED so the guest python flushes promptly.
- _tail_lines split out for failure messages (no double print).
- Windows live streaming deferred (TODO 8.2) — pypsrp execute_ps
returns only at completion.
- build-ns7zip.yml: use-git-clone:'true' (in-guest), repo-url ->
https://gitea.emulab.it/... (guest-reachable; host SSH alias was
host-only). Requires GiteaPAT in the LocalSystem keyring or a public
nsis-plugin-ns7zip.

On a non-zero build the guest stdout/stderr was written unflushed
then a ClickException raised, so the cause was lost (only
"build command failed (exit 1)" surfaced). _report_build_output now
emits the output with markers, flushes both streams, and returns the
last lines which are appended to the failure message — diagnosable
even if act_runner buffering drops the body. Applied to Linux + Windows.

_host_clone hid all stderr ("exit 128" with no cause). Surface the
last stderr lines with scheme://user:pass@ credentials masked, so
failures (e.g. unresolved SSH alias under LocalSystem) are diagnosable.

The job command previously discarded --use-git-clone and --submodules
(`del`) and always in-guest cloned with submodules off — making both
action inputs dead no-ops (submodule repos silently broken).
- job.py: --use-git-clone/--host-clone and --submodules/--no-submodules
are real booleans defaulting to ON. Default = in-guest clone with
submodules. --host-clone clones on the host into a temp dir
(_host_clone) and transfers a zip; temp dir cleaned in finally.
clone_submodules now honoured (was hardcoded False).
- action.yml: use-git-clone / submodules default 'true'; forward the
explicit positive/negative flag so the Python default is overridden
deterministically.
- self-test.yml: add smoke-{windows,linux}-hostclone jobs covering the
host-side transport (default jobs already cover in-guest).
- tests: default-transport, host-clone, and --no-submodules coverage.

Windows produced an intermediate C:\CI\output\artifacts.zip that
upload-artifact then re-zipped (zip-in-zip), while Linux deposited raw
files. Make both paths consistent: the build stages raw outputs into a
collect dir; collect zips it only as a transport archive, fetches, and
extracts into the host artifact dir; actions/upload-artifact produces
the single final archive.
- _windows_build: param artifact_zip -> output_dir; stage raw files
(in-place when source IS the collect dir, else wipe+copy), no
Compress-Archive; absolute artifact-source resolved.
- _windows_collect: zip guest dir as transport, fetch, extract (mirror
_linux_collect); guest_path is now the collect directory.
- job.py / build_run CLI: pass output_dir; rename --guest-artifact-zip
-> --guest-output-dir.
- Tests updated for the raw-file contract.

git clone --depth 1 --branch X only fetches the branch tip. When the
branch advances between workflow trigger and runner pickup, checking
out the pinned commit failed with "reference is not a tree: <sha>".
Fetch that exact commit (git fetch --depth 1 origin <sha>) before
checkout, on both Linux (SSH) and Windows (WinRM) paths.

Two bugs made the Linux smoke "succeed" with an empty artifact:
- artifact_source was always joined as workdir + '/' + src, so an
absolute source (/opt/ci/output) became /opt/ci/build//opt/ci/output
and was never found — only a non-fatal WARNING was logged.
- `rm -rf output_dir` ran unconditionally; when the build writes
directly into the collect dir (the smoke case: output == source),
it deleted the build output before collection.
Resolve absolute vs workdir-relative; when the source is the output
dir, collect in place without wiping; a missing/empty source is now a
hard failure instead of a silent empty artifact.

Two Windows-guest build bugs:
- The build command was wrapped in `cmd /c`, so PowerShell-authored
commands failed ("'New-Item' is not recognized"). Run it as PS
(seed LASTEXITCODE=0 so PS-only commands exit cleanly).
- artifact_source was always Join-Path'd with the workdir; an absolute
source (C:\CI\output) became C:\CI\build\C:\CI\output. Use the path
as-is when rooted, else Join-Path the workdir.

Phase A4 of plans/implementation-plan-A-B.md. Implements the full job orchestrator (clone -> start -> wait -> probe -> build -> collect -> guaranteed cleanup) as a new commands/job.py click command, registered under python -m ci_orchestrator job. Backend selection goes through backends.load_backend(config) so Phase C can swap in remote drivers without touching the command. The legacy scripts/Invoke-CIJob.ps1 is replaced by a thin PS 5.1 shim that delegates to the Python CLI; tests/python/test_commands_job.py adds 13 cases covering Linux/Windows happy paths, override application, skip-artifact, and cleanup on every failure mode.
