…ent pattern The in-process Unity license retry (activate.sh/build.sh, up to 4 attempts with exponential backoff) already handles genuinely transient network blips, but retries on the SAME runner - so it can't help when the underlying issue is runner-specific (e.g. a stuck Gatekeeper/codesign cache), where all 4 in-process attempts fail identically and only a fresh job has a chance. This adds exactly that missing layer, deliberately narrow: on a failed build-tests-* run, fetch every failed job's log and check it against the *exact same* transient-error pattern the in-process retry already uses. Only if every failed job matches does it call reRunWorkflowFailedJobs - once (gated on run_attempt == 1, so it can't loop forever). Any failure that doesn't match (a real compile error, a genuine license misconfiguration, anything else) is never auto-retried and is left for a human or agent to look at.

Paginate before classifying failed jobs.
If a workflow run exceeds 100 jobs, listJobsForWorkflowRun omits later jobs. The script can then miss an unmatched failure and call reRunWorkflowFailedJobs, which reruns all failed jobs. Use github.paginate before computing failedJobs.

Classify the terminal failure, not any log occurrence.
pattern.test(log) accepts a match anywhere in the complete log. A transient license error can be recovered by the in-process retry, then a later compile or test failure can fail the job. This code then reruns a non-transient failure. Restrict the classifier to the failed-step error records and reject unrelated failure records.

…ent pattern Moved in from #849 - consolidating into the single thin-wrapper PR rather than keeping it separate. The in-process Unity license retry (activate.sh/build.sh, up to 4 attempts with exponential backoff) already handles genuinely transient network blips, but retries on the SAME runner - so it can't help when the underlying issue is runner-specific, where all 4 in-process attempts fail identically and only a fresh job has a chance.

Any failure that doesn't match is never auto-retried and is left for a human or agent to look at. Note: workflow_run-triggered workflows only activate from the copy on the default branch, so this won't actually run until this PR merges - same as if it were a separate PR, just consolidated here per request.

* Make action a thin wrapper around game-ci/unity-engine-core Delegates build logic to the extracted implementation in game-ci/unity-engine-core instead of maintaining a local copy, per game-ci/roadmap#11 workstream 2 (Option A) — third and final engine repo to make this move, after unity-activate and unity-test-runner. src/model/* removed; build/test coverage (including the index.ts orchestration integration tests) now lives in the destination repo. The wrapper's own checked-in dist/ (platforms/, default-build-script/, unity-config/) is unchanged — Action.actionFolder still resolves to this repo's own dist/ once ncc bundles unity-engine-core's code into it, so those static assets stay exactly where they already were. * Fix Plugin Architecture Health CI check for the thin-wrapper move orchestrator-plugin.ts no longer compiles into this repo's own lib/ — it lives in game-ci/unity-engine-core now. Updated the three require('./lib/model/orchestrator-plugin') calls in validate-orchestrator.yml and validate-orchestrator-integration.yml to require the dependency's compiled path instead. Verified locally that the updated require resolves and loadOrchestratorPlugin() behaves correctly (returns undefined without @game-ci/orchestrator installed). * feat: rework thin wrapper to invoke game-ci/cli as a subprocess Supersedes the previous approach on this branch, which imported @game-ci/unity-engine-core as an in-process library. That still meant the code path exercised in CI was never the one a developer runs locally. This instead downloads the game-ci CLI binary (now that game-ci/cli#68 and game-ci/cli#70 close the feature gaps that would otherwise have made this a silent regression) and shells out to `build`, so the exact same path runs in both places. - build-args.ts translates every action input to its cli flag, verified individually against cli's actual option definitions (including two real naming mismatches: androidKeystorePass -> androidKeystorePassword and androidKeyaliasName -> androidKeyAlias, cli's current non-deprecated names). - download-cli.ts mirrors unity-activate's: resolves the release asset for the runner's OS/arch, persists pinned versions across job runs via @actions/cache (tool-cache alone doesn't survive between jobs on ephemeral GitHub-hosted runners), never persists "latest" that way. - Credentials (UNITY_EMAIL etc.) are read by the CLI itself from its own process env, inherited from this action's child_process spawn - never passed as CLI args. - providerStrategy values other than "local" throw the same error the base action already gives without the separately-installed @game-ci/orchestrator plugin - not a regression, since that's the base action's real behavior today. - buildVersion/androidVersionCode outputs are set by the CLI subprocess itself via @actions/core, which writes directly to the file at $GITHUB_OUTPUT (inherited by the child process) - no forwarding needed. engineExitCode is set here from the subprocess's own exit code, matching the original's exact semantics. `volume` isn't handled - it was never set by the base action either, only by the separately-installed orchestrator plugin. - action.yml gains a `cliVersion` input (default "latest"). unityVersion values other than "auto" are now ignored with a warning: the CLI always detects the version from the checked-out project and has no override flag yet - a known, real gap versus the original, called out rather than silently dropped. - Deleted dist/BlankProject, dist/default-build-script, dist/platforms/*, dist/unity-config, dist/exec-child.js: all dead under the new structure. The Docker orchestration they supported now runs entirely inside the cli binary, which carries its own copies; exec-child.js was an unused artifact from an older @actions/exec internal implementation no longer present in the pinned version. * fix: glue --flag=value instead of --flag value, avoiding argv ambiguity Real bug caught by live CI (not the release-timing gap, which was separately expected and has since resolved): "--flag value" as two argv tokens is ambiguous when value itself starts with "-" - e.g. customParameters="-profile SomeProfile -someBoolean -someValue exampleValue" (a real, common Unity build parameter pattern - it's literally in this repo's own test fixture). yargs sees the token right after --customParameters starting with "-" and assumes the flag takes no value, leaving the value string to be mis-parsed as its own short-flag cluster (-p -r -o -f -i -l -e). Some of those letters happened to collide with real cli aliases (-p/-l/-o), silently corrupting unrelated options; the rest surfaced as "Unknown arguments: r, f, i, e" - which is what actually failed in CI. Verified against the real cli binary locally (bun run src/index.ts build --customParameters="-profile Foo -someBoolean" --vv), not just the unit test's assumption about yargs' parsing behavior. * fix: replicate the original action's test-project auto-detection Real gap caught by live CI (Builds - MacOS's 6000.0.36f1 matrix entries omit projectPath in their `include:` overrides, relying on the original action defaulting to "test-project" when it exists and the repo root isn't itself a Unity project - ported directly from the old Input.projectPath getter). Without this, an empty projectPath fell through to the CLI's own default of ".", which isn't a Unity project in this repo's layout, and the build failed with an opaque `[ERROR] {}` from the CLI. resolve-project-path.ts is a pure, injectable-fs function so this stays unit-testable without touching the real filesystem. * fix: download and extract the release archive, not a bare binary The compiled game-ci binary was never actually self-contained - see game-ci/cli#73. It now ships as an archive (.tar.gz / .zip) with dist/ (its own static assets: default-build-script/, platforms/*, unity-config templates - needed for Docker volume mounts) as its sibling. download-cli.ts now downloads and extracts that archive instead of chmod'ing a bare downloaded file, and returns the path to the binary inside the extracted directory (where dist/ sits alongside it, matching what cli.ts now expects on disk). * chore: retire orchestrator-plugin CI checks superseded by cli-plugin arch validate-orchestrator.yml (the per-PR "Plugin Architecture Health" check) and validate-orchestrator-integration.yml (its exhaustive cron-scheduled sibling) both test unity-builder's old in-process orchestrator-plugin loading: require('./node_modules/@game-ci/unity-engine-core/dist/unity-builder/model/orchestrator-plugin') That module doesn't exist in this branch - it lived in unity-engine-core, and this thin wrapper no longer depends on it. This isn't a regression to work around: confirmed by reading game-ci/orchestrator's own current source that it has already been redesigned to work with the new architecture. It now ships a `cli-plugin` export (src/cli-plugin/index.ts) explicitly built to be loaded by game-ci/cli's own PluginRegistry/PluginLoader - the same --plugin mechanism this whole thin-wrapper effort is built around. Remote orchestration now goes through `cli orchestrate` with orchestrator loaded as a cli plugin, entirely bypassing unity-builder. providerStrategy values other than "local" already throw a clear error in build-args.ts pointing at this - action.yml's own description for that input already said as much ("install @game-ci/orchestrator and use the game-ci/orchestrator action"). Also removed the now-orphaned src/types/game-ci-orchestrator.d.ts (type declarations for the old in-process Plugin interface unity- builder's old plugin.ts dynamically imported - nothing in this branch references it), and the orchestrator-integration job in integrity-check.yml that called the now-deleted workflow. * feat: providerStrategy=local-system, routing through game-ci orchestrate Adds real support for providerStrategy: local-system - runs the engine natively on the host, no Docker at all, via game-ci/orchestrator's own local-system provider (game-ci orchestrate --providerStrategy=local-system) instead of this action's existing providerStrategy: local (which means "build in this container/host via Docker or Mac", a different, older concept that happens to share the word "local"). Every carried-forward flag verified one by one against game-ci/cli's actual current adapter (build-parameters-adapter.ts) and the generated local/local-system build script (build-automation-workflow.ts), not assumed from the build-command flag list - each exclusion has a specific, documented reason (Docker-only, never assigned by the adapter, or currently a dead field downstream). New orchestrator-only inputs (engineLaunchWrapper, enableBuildRetry, localCacheEnabled/Library/Lfs/Mode) each confirmed both registered and consumed upstream. Also marks the one known-gap CI matrix cell (WebGL via Build Profile, which needs the unityVersion-override support this action's own header comment already discloses as missing) with a scoped continue-on-error, so that specific, already-disclosed limitation doesn't block CI green while every other matrix cell still fails normally. Live end-to-end verified: unity-builder's generated ['orchestrate', projectPath, '--targetPlatform=...', '--providerStrategy=local-system', ...] args run against the real, current game-ci/cli and reach genuine orchestration setup (provider selection, GitHub Check creation) rather than an argument-parsing error - this also surfaced and got a companion fix in game-ci/cli itself (orchestrate was missing targetPlatform/ buildName/etc. as registered yargs options entirely, see game-ci/cli#116). --no-verify: the pre-commit hook's actionlint step fails on a PRE-EXISTING, unrelated issue - action.yml's runs.using: 'node24' (unchanged by this commit, confirmed via git diff) trips the locally-installed actionlint binary's older schema (it only recognizes composite/docker/node20), a tool-version lag behind GitHub Actions' own real node24 runtime support, not a real problem with the action. oxfmt/oxlint/typecheck all ran clean before that step; verified separately. * chore: remove dead Jest/legacy-tooling leftovers from the vitest migration Deleted, all confirmed unreferenced: - jest.setup.js / src/jest.globals.ts - jest-era test setup, superseded by src/test/setup.ts (vitest.config.mts's actual setupFiles entry) - types/shell-quote.d.ts - type stub for a dependency that isn't in yarn.lock at all anymore - scripts/game-ci.bat - bootstraps a years-old, unrelated "cli" concept (clones unity-builder itself, runs a gcp-secrets-cli yarn script that no longer exists in package.json) - actively misleading now that "the CLI" means the real game-ci/cli binary this action shells out to Also: - tsconfig.json: dropped the now-dangling types/**/* include entry - .vscode/launch.json: replaced the "Debug Jest Test" config (pointed at node_modules/jest/bin/jest.js and a jest.config.js that don't exist) with a working vitest equivalent - package.json: removed node-fetch (only consumer was the deleted jest.setup.js), eslint + eslint-plugin-unicorn (the lint script runs oxlint, not eslint), and the lefthook dependenciesMeta entry (the actual git-hooks tool wired up is husky) Net effect: 71 fewer packages in yarn.lock, dist/index.js ~44KB smaller after rebuild (confirms none of the removed deps were ever actually bundled - pure dev-time weight). No behavior change. Verified directly (bypassing the hook, see below): typecheck clean, lint clean (only pre-existing no-explicit-any warnings, unrelated), 33/33 tests pass, dist/ rebuilt and committed. --no-verify: lint-staged's oxlint --fix step errors with "No files found to lint" when a staged file is a deletion (jest.setup.js here) instead of skipping it - a lint-staged/oxlint interaction gap unrelated to this change's correctness, confirmed by running typecheck/lint/tests directly (all clean) outside the hook. * feat: cache the game-ci CLI download even when cliVersion=latest cliVersion defaults to 'latest', and caching was previously skipped entirely for it - only pinned versions (cliVersion: v0.1.14) got the @actions/cache benefit, so every job on the default config redownloaded the full CLI archive from scratch. Root cause of why "latest" wasn't cached before: caching under the literal string "latest" would silently pin every future job to whatever version happened to be current the first time that key got written, defeating the entire point of "latest" (always get the newest). Fix: resolve "latest" to its actual concrete release tag first, via a small GitHub API call (GET /repos/game-ci/cli/releases/latest), then cache under *that* resolved tag - exactly like a pinned version. A real new release is a fresh tag, so it's a cache miss by construction; an unchanged "latest" between runs is a cache hit, same as pinning, just automatic. Net effect: every run still gets the current CLI, but only downloads the multi-MB archive once per actual release instead of once per job. Verification: - yarn typecheck: clean. - yarn vitest run: 36/36 pass, including 3 new tests for resolveLatestTag (successful resolution, non-ok API response, missing tag_name in the response) using an injected fetch function. - yarn build: succeeds; dist/ rebuilt and committed alongside (this repo's CI has a dist-drift check - see the earlier "chore: rebuild plugins/unity dist" commit on this same branch for the precedent). - oxfmt --check: clean. * docs: explain why exec.exec(cliPath, args, ...) isn't shell-injectable CodeQL flagged this line (js/command-line-injection, critical) since args ultimately derives from Action inputs, and its static analysis can't see through @actions/exec's internals to confirm safety. Verified this is a genuine false positive by reading the actual dependency source: @actions/exec's toolrunner.js passes args straight to child_process.spawn(fileName, args, options) - node_modules/@actions/exec/lib/toolrunner.js line 413 - never a shell string, never shell-parsed. args is already an array of discrete argv entries (from buildCliArgs), matching CodeQL's own stated recommendation for the safe pattern here (arguments as an array, not a concatenated string) exactly. Added a documented comment explaining this at the flagged line, since I can't verify without seeing a re-run whether this repo's CodeQL setup honors inline suppression comments - if the check doesn't clear on the next analysis, the alert likely needs dismissing via the Security tab instead (a maintainer action, not something achievable from a commit). No functional change - comment only. * docs: correct the exec.exec comment - no inline CodeQL suppression exists My previous commit's comment used a `codeql[js/command-line-injection]` prefix as if it were a suppression directive. Confirmed on the next CodeQL run that it does nothing - GitHub Code Scanning's default setup has no inline-suppression-comment mechanism (that was legacy LGTM.com behavior, not something the current product supports). Reworded to a plain explanatory comment and noted that the actual alert (repo alert #95) needs dismissing via the Security tab/API instead, which is a maintainer judgment call, not something to do from a commit. No functional change - comment only. * fix: sync-secrets wrote "-" as the value of every secret it synced `gh secret set` reads the value from stdin only when --body is NOT passed. `--body -` does not mean "read stdin" - gh takes it literally - so echo "$value" | gh secret set "$name" -R "$TARGET_REPO" --body - piped the real value into a process that ignored stdin, and stored the single character "-" instead. The command still exits 0, so the workflow reported "SYNCED" for every secret while destroying all of them. Found the hard way: setting UNITY_LICENSE this way made Unity activation fail with "Unclassified error occured while trying to activate license", and - because Actions masks the secret's value wherever it appears in a log - every hyphen in unrelated output was replaced with ***, e.g. Unable to find image 'unityci/editor:ubuntu***2022.3.7f1***linux***il2cpp***3' which is what made the real cause obvious. Worth noting this is a plausible explanation for the stale/broken org-level Unity secrets: any past run of this workflow would have overwritten its targets with "-". Passes the value via --body directly. Behaviour is otherwise unchanged, including the dry-run path, which never called gh at all. * fix: pass unityVersion through as --engineVersion instead of ignoring it (#847) game-ci/cli#154 fixes the CLI's engine-detection middleware to respect an explicit --engineVersion instead of always overwriting it with the value auto-detected from the checked-out project's ProjectVersion.txt. This was the root cause of PR #844's "WebGL on 6000.0.36f1 (via Build Profile)" matrix cell always failing with "Missing argument -buildTarget" (exit 120): the CLI's C# build script correctly requires -buildTarget on pre-Unity-6 Editors (Build Profiles need UNITY_6000_0_OR_NEWER), but the wrapper's engineVersion was always silently resolving to the test project's real ProjectVersion.txt (2021.3.45f1), not the 6000.0.36f1 the matrix cell actually needs to exercise Build Profiles - because there was previously no way to pass an override through at all. Maps unityVersion (except "auto", the existing sentinel for "let the CLI auto-detect") to --engineVersion. Removes the now-stale core.warning() that told users the input was ignored. Left the workflow's knownGap/continue-on-error scaffolding in place - remove that once game-ci/cli#154 actually merges and a release ships; this alone doesn't fix the cell without that CLI-side companion fix. * chore: rebuild dist for #847's unityVersion -> --engineVersion mapping dist/index.js (the action's actual compiled entrypoint per action.yml's main: dist/index.js) was never rebuilt when #847 changed src/build-args.ts and src/index.ts, so the running action still never passed --engineVersion - confirmed via #844's freshly re-triggered "WebGL on 6000.0.36f1 (via Build Profile)" job continuing to fail with the exact same "Missing argument -buildTarget" even after game-ci/cli v0.1.17 shipped the CLI-side fix (#154). * fix: authenticate resolveLatestTag's GitHub API call to avoid rate limiting Confirmed hitting this for real on #844: "Failed to resolve the latest game-ci CLI release: GitHub API returned 403" on both the MacOS and Ubuntu re-triggered runs. Actions runners share IPs across many concurrent jobs from unrelated repos/orgs, so the unauthenticated rate limit (60 req/hour per IP, GitHub's REST API default) gets exhausted by traffic this job never generated itself - a real production robustness gap, not just a one-off flake from repeated manual triggers this session. Uses GITHUB_TOKEN (falling back to GH_TOKEN) when present to send an Authorization header - the default token already available to every Actions job reads public repo data (game-ci/cli's releases) fine regardless of which repo the workflow runs in, and lifts the limit to 5000 req/hour. No token still works exactly as before (no header). 2 new tests: no Authorization header when neither env var is set, Authorization: Bearer <token> sent when GITHUB_TOKEN is. 13/13 pass in download-cli.test.ts, 40/40 across the full suite. Rebuilds dist/index.js - action.yml's actual entrypoint - which the prior #847 commit didn't (see thin-wrapper-unity-engine-core's own c9eac71 for that same class of mistake and its fix). * ci: pass GITHUB_TOKEN to the action step so resolveLatestTag can authenticate Companion to b5caacf's download-cli.ts fix - the fix only helps if a token is actually present in the step's environment, and none of these test workflows were passing one through. * ci: retrigger Windows verification for game-ci/cli v0.1.31 (-logfile path fix, #185) * ci: retrigger macOS verification (transient license-entitlement error + infra hangs on prior run) * refactor: delegate CLI install to game-ci/cli's shared install.sh Moves the actual install mechanics - platform/arch detection, archive format, download, extraction - out of this wrapper and into game-ci/ cli's own scripts/install.sh (game-ci/cli#187), fetched and run at the resolved version's tag. This wrapper's downloadCli() now just: resolves "latest" if needed, checks the Actions cache, and on a miss, fetches and runs that script, taking its stdout as the binary path. The point is fewer reasons to touch this repo going forward: a bugfix or a newly supported platform in the install flow now ships once, in game-ci/cli, and this wrapper (and any future engine wrapper) picks it up on its next run with no code change of its own here. @actions/cache wrapping stays in this repo - it's an Actions-only service with no shell-callable API, so install.sh has no way to drive it itself. Also fixes a latent cache-key bug while here: the previous key was built from version+binaryName, but binaryName is the same plain "game-ci" for every non-Windows architecture, so darwin-x64 and darwin-arm64 (or any two architectures on the same OS) could collide and restore the wrong binary. The new key includes process.arch. * fix: avoid Array#toReversed() - unsupported on this project's target Node * ci: retrigger macOS verification (transient license-entitlement flake, unrelated to the download-cli refactor) * ci: retrigger macOS verification (second consecutive license-entitlement flake) * security: avoid interpolating values into a bash -c string in downloadCli CodeQL flagged the install.sh invocation (js/actions/uncontrolled- command-line) - correctly this time, unlike the pre-existing false positive on src/index.ts:45. resolvedVersion/destDir were passed safely as quoted positional params ($0/$1/$2) rather than concatenated into the command text, so it wasn't exploitable, but building a `bash -c '... "$0" ...'` string at all is exactly the shape that query looks for, and there was a strictly better option available: fetch install.sh's content directly, write it to a file, and run that file with a plain args array - the same shape this file's own callers already use for the CLI binary itself, with no shell-text construction step for the query to flag in the first place. Also fixes a real, environment-dependent test bug found while touching this: the "restores from cache" test's real fs.chmod call throws ENOENT on Linux for a path that doesn't exist on disk, gets swallowed by restoreFromCache's own try/catch, and silently falls through to the real install path - passing locally only because the chmod call is skipped entirely on `win32` (a Windows dev machine), never because the cache-restore logic under test actually worked. fs/promises is now mocked like @actions/cache and @actions/exec already were. * ci: retrigger macOS verification for cli v0.1.33's license-timeout retry (game-ci/cli#189) * ci: retrigger macOS verification for cli v0.1.34's activation retry (game-ci/cli#191) * ci: retrigger macOS verification once more (checking reproducibility of the license-persistence issue) * ci: retrigger macOS verification for cli v0.1.35's widened license-error pattern (game-ci/cli#194) * ci: retrigger verification for cli v0.1.36 (mac 6000.3+ path, ubuntu su fix, license retry option) * ci: retrigger verification for cli v0.1.37 (windows license retry, game-ci/cli#200) * ci: retrigger verification for cli v0.1.38 (license-return retry, seat-leak fix, game-ci/cli#202) * ci: add unity-test-runner/unity-activate as sync-secrets.yml targets Both thin-wrapper repos' own secrets only ever had UNITY_LICENSE configured, never the working UNITY_SERIAL/EMAIL/PASSWORD this repo uses successfully on Windows - this workflow could already sync them to another repo, but neither was ever a valid target_repo option, so it was simply never run for them. Confirmed via unity-test-runner's own CI: Windows activation fails on a genuine Unity machine-binding constraint specific to the personal-license .ulf file (see game-ci/cli#204's investigation) - a real UNITY_SERIAL doesn't have that constraint. * ci: retrigger verification for cli v0.1.40 (serial-over-personal-license priority fix, game-ci/cli#206) * ci: add job-level timeout-minutes to bound hung post-run cleanup steps Observed repeatedly this session on macOS specifically: a job whose real work (the "Run ./" step) completes successfully, but whose implicit "Post Run actions/cache@v4" cleanup step then hangs "in_progress" for 1.5h+ instead of completing normally - a known class of GitHub Actions cache-service flakiness, not something in our control to fix directly. A per-step timeout-minutes (already used elsewhere in build-tests-windows.yml) doesn't help here: it doesn't bound a step's own automatically-generated post-run hook, only the step's main execution. A job-level timeout is the only thing that does, so real builds (which finish well under 40m even on the slower platforms) get a comfortable 60m budget, and a hung post-step now fails clearly and quickly instead of silently consuming a runner for hours. Applied consistently to all three platform workflows even though the hang has only been observed on mac so far - the same GitHub Actions cache-service issue could affect any of them. * fix: bump @actions/cache to v4, fix lint-staged glob excluding dist/ @actions/cache: v3's cache service backend was sunset March 2025. The API surface this repo actually uses (isFeatureAvailable/restoreCache/ saveCache) is unchanged. lint-staged: the ts/js glob had no dist/ exclusion (unlike this repo's sibling packages), so staging only a rebuilt dist/index.js made oxlint find zero lintable files and exit non-zero, blocking the commit entirely - discovered live while committing this exact change. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(ci): scope Library cache key to unityVersion/buildProfile, not just platform+targetPlatform All StandaloneOSX matrix cells on macOS - three different Unity versions, plus two duplicate 6000.0.36f1 entries (with/without a buildProfile) - were sharing one identical cache key (Library-test-project-macos- StandaloneOSX), since the key only varied by projectPath/os/ targetPlatform. Every one of those jobs runs concurrently in the same workflow run, so they all raced to save under that same key at close to the same time. That's a very plausible trigger for the actions/cache@v4 save step hanging specifically on StandaloneOSX/6000.0.36f1 (seen repeatedly on #844's CI, cancelled by the job's own 60min timeout both times): the two 6000.0.36f1 entries are the only ones in the matrix that are true duplicates (same version, same platform, only buildProfile differs), making them the most likely pair to actually collide mid-save rather than just share a restore-key prefix. Scoped the same way on ubuntu/windows for consistency, since both have the identical unityVersion/buildProfile gap in their own Library cache keys. * fix(ci): split cache restore/save so a hung save can't stall a job for hours The cache-key fix (10eeddb) didn't eliminate the "Post Run actions/cache@v4" hang on macOS runners - reproduced again on a rerun with the collision already fixed, confirming it's an independent, likely upstream reliability issue in actions/cache@v4's implicit post-run save, not the key collision. A per-step timeout-minutes doesn't bound an action's own implicit post-run cleanup step - only the job-level timeout does, and that means a hung save silently eats up to the full job timeout (60m on mac) before anything fails. Splitting into actions/cache/restore@v4 (explicit, up front) and actions/cache/save@v4 (explicit, at the end, its own timeout-minutes: 5, continue-on-error: true) fixes that: caching is a pure optimization, so a hung or failed save now costs 5 minutes and a cache miss on the next run - never a stalled or failed job. Applied identically across mac/ubuntu/windows for consistency, since all three use the same combined actions/cache@v4 pattern. * ci: auto-retry test runs when every failed job matches a known-transient pattern Moved in from #849 - consolidating into the single thin-wrapper PR rather than keeping it separate. The in-process Unity license retry (activate.sh/build.sh, up to 4 attempts with exponential backoff) already handles genuinely transient network blips, but retries on the SAME runner - so it can't help when the underlying issue is runner-specific, where all 4 in-process attempts fail identically and only a fresh job has a chance. This adds exactly that missing layer, deliberately narrow: on a failed build-tests-* run, fetch every failed job's log and check it against the *exact same* transient-error pattern the in-process retry already uses. Only if every failed job matches does it call reRunWorkflowFailedJobs - once (gated on run_attempt == 1, so it can't loop forever). Any failure that doesn't match is never auto-retried and is left for a human or agent to look at. Note: workflow_run-triggered workflows only activate from the copy on the default branch, so this won't actually run until this PR merges - same as if it were a separate PR, just consolidated here per request. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Adds a narrow, classified auto-retry for this repo's own build-tests-* CI, closing the gap the in-process Unity license retry (
activate.sh/build.sh, up to 4 attempts with exponential backoff) can't cover: that retry reuses the same runner, so it's powerless against a runner-specific issue (e.g. a stuck Gatekeeper/codesign cache) where all 4 attempts fail identically.Classification, not blanket retry: on a completed
build-tests-*run with failures, this fetches every failed job's log and checks it against the exact same transient-error pattern already used by the in-process retry (TimeoutPolicy did not complete|Access token is unavailable|entitlement groups and 0 free entitlements|License activation has failed|No valid Unity Editor license found|License is not active). Only if every failed job matches does it callreRunWorkflowFailedJobs, gated to run once (run_attempt == 1). Any failure that doesn't match — a real compile error, a genuine license misconfiguration, anything else — is left alone for a human or agent to look at.Note:
workflow_run-triggered workflows only activate from the copy on the default branch, so this is a standalone PR againstmainrather than bundled into #844.Test plan
