Every job on the control runners has failed since today's slots release. In Set up runner, the JOB_STARTED hook printed [pre-job] Previous job did not finish; sweeping… and exited 1.

Cause. The runner runs the hook under bash -e, whatever the script's shebang or its "not using set -e" comment say. When the bun cache has no @scope folder, "$bun_cache"/@*/ reaches find as a literal path, find exits 1 (its stderr is discarded), and the hook aborts.

Fix. Glob with nullglob and only when the cache exists, end each sweep command in || true, and end the script in exit 0. The header comment now says why.

Test. tests/pre-job.sh runs the hook under bash -e with no bun cache, with a cache that has no @scope folder, and with leftovers to sweep. It fails on the old hook (2 checks) and passes on the new one. shellcheck -x is clean.

Second commit: cleanup.sh, same root cause. This answers the open question. The JOB_COMPLETED hook also runs under bash -e:

  • On a runner with no ~/.gradle/caches (every control runner, and any runner that never ran Gradle), find exits 1.
  • cleanup.sh then aborts, and "Complete runner" fails the job even though every step passed.
  • busy is left behind, so the next job takes the crash-recovery path.

Since the slots release this failed jobs on control and regular runners: smart-irrigation, nis-suite, kodni-mobile, infrasensing-senslogging.

The fix:

  • busy is cleared first;
  • every command ends in || true;
  • the main path is cleanup || true.

tests/cleanup.sh runs the hook under bash -e with and without a Gradle cache. It fails on the old hook (4 checks) and passes on the new one.

…s no @scope folder

The runner runs the JOB_STARTED hook under bash -e. With no @scope folder in
the bun cache, the unmatched glob reached find as a literal path, find exited
1, and every job on the runner failed before its first step. Glob with
nullglob, end each sweep command in || true and the script in exit 0, and test
the hook under bash -e.
