Root cause of the 2026-11-07 20:14 OOM: the queue granted jobs per kind
only, so several heavy kinds and direct heavy commands outside the queue
ran side by side until the kernel killed the editor.
- queue.py: every grant checks the sum of the learned RAM and CPU
footprints of active and granted jobs against budget_percent; an
unlearned kind takes the whole budget and runs alone. RAM used plus
what young jobs (RAMP_SECONDS) may still take must stay below
load_limits. Memory stage stop blocks every grant.
- watch.py: memory stage from MemAvailable, swap, PSI full and the swap
of the container holding most of it; the block hook classifies
builds, make install/verify-*, and pytest or unittest beyond one file
as heavy through wrappers, sh -c, command substitutions and heredocs
a shell reads.
- history.py: footprints per kind and signature, seed RAM for pending
shares.
- operator.py: [h]old queues a heavy row through queue.py hold and asks
again on its grant, with a flushed tty and a timeout; sudo rows, which
need the terminal, stay direct.
Residuals: a shell reading code from a pipe or here-string, its own
script, a program named by a substitution, quotes inside an expanding
heredoc, an escaped backslash before a substitution; a lone job waits
while the host is over load_limits.
