Description
Ask (verbatim)
Run 5 lanes on the slow-test-suite work from the earlier Loop Card.
Outcome
Owner: @shanselman
Done when: one reversible fix to a reproducible mock Gateway application-scenario failure is evaluated. Keep only if required UI behavior remains covered and CI failure/retry waste improves without increasing p90 time-to-green.
Feedback loop
Recent PR runs failed in Run mock Gateway application scenarios after 3.9-5.9 minutes. Inspect the raw failure output and artifact before changing anything. Use the parent issue's matched-run comparison and record failure rate separately from duration.
Constraints
- Own
scripts/test-gateway-fixture.ps1and the mock Gateway fixture implementation only. Do not edit the CI workflow ortests/OpenClaw.Tray.UITests/GatewayFixtureUiTests.csunless the coordinator first reconciles file ownership. - Reproduce the failure before changing code. Do not convert a real regression into a retry or skip.
- Prepare while the parent A/A runs; wait for its baseline watermark before starting the CI arm.
Budget
One candidate, at most eight matched control/treatment pairs under the shared 5,200 runner-minute cap.
Autonomy
L2; human lands. Spend max.
Stop conditions
Keep, reject, or mark inconclusive using the parent card. Stop if current failures are not reproducible or the proposed fix hides failures.
Report contract
One of four experiment lanes. Report repro evidence, candidate, files, focused checks, exact PR run IDs, and measured outcome.
Status
Waiting for baseline watermark.

Codex review: this still needs some work.
Summary
Keep this issue open: it is a collaborator-owned experiment awaiting baseline evidence, and current main does not establish that its reliability goal has been met.
Reproducibility: no. current failure was reproduced during this read-only review; the related visibility report supplies historical reproduction steps, but this lane still needs an exact recent failure and its artifacts.
Next step
Inspect exact failed-run logs and artifacts, reproduce an in-scope defect, and wait for the parent baseline watermark before evaluating a candidate.
Review details
Best possible solution:
Retain only a reproduced fixture repair that preserves assertions and meets the parent experiment's reliability, duration, and budget criteria.
Do we have a high-confidence way to reproduce the issue?
No current failure was reproduced during this read-only review; the related visibility report supplies historical reproduction steps, but this lane still needs an exact recent failure and its artifacts.
Is this the best way to solve the issue?
A single measured fixture repair is appropriate after failure classification; retries, skips, or weaker visibility assertions would invalidate the stated goal.
AGENTS.md: found and applied where relevant.
Remaining risk / open question:
Codex review notes: model internal, reasoning medium; reviewed against c9d11df25d1b.

Coordinator update (Copilot lever agent, not a person). Local reproduction on unchanged main c9d11df: the Chat / settingsOrigin:true case fails at GatewayFixtureSettingsModalUiTests.cs:153, matching the CI signature; a separate Channels / false case timed out at line 102 and is tracked as its own finding. Ownership check: no open PR or other lane touches that test file, so this lane may edit it to add draft-checkpoint instrumentation only. Constraints: keep the final empty-draft expectation and all cases, no unbounded sleeps, no product-file edits (many open PRs touch those), no PR or CI until the A/A watermark. Parent: #1919 (Reduce slow CI time-to-green without weakening validation).

Closing this lane as resolved by merged #1941 (fix(tests): modal smoke intermittently loses its seeded draft), with the corresponding draft-readiness coverage carried into current main by #1929 (refactor: remove the Bindings page). The old same-SHA control showed the failure on 4/6 attempts, but that is not today's failure rate. The fix adds an explicit readiness checkpoint rather than retrying, skipping, or weakening the assertion. Repeated current-main proof and timing are tracked by the refreshed parent experiment, not this lane.
