Problem

After PR #1404 merged, promote.yml run 8505 / repository run #2235 failed in job gate-and-promote during make test.

Failure evidence:

run 8505 (#2235) failure promote.yml push main "Define broker and pre-flight check placement matrix (#1404)"
--- FAIL: TestRunHostDispatchBrokerRequestClearsBrokerEnvWhileLaunchRuns (0.00s)
    testing.go:1464: TempDir RemoveAll cleanup: unlinkat /tmp/TestRunHostDispatchBrokerRequestClearsBrokerEnvWhileLaunchRuns3709322320/001/.ward/agent-logs/dispatch/20260715T112759Z-18c27307bf7fbe23-unknown-coilyco-flight-deck-ward-795: directory not empty
FAIL github.com/coilyco-flight-deck/ward/cmd/ward 18.658s
make: *** [Makefile:178: test] Error 1

PR tests for #1404 and #1405 were green, but main promotion is red. This is separate from the release.yml failures tracked by #1402 and #1403.

Acceptance

Reproduce or inspect the tempdir cleanup failure in TestRunHostDispatchBrokerRequestClearsBrokerEnvWhileLaunchRuns.
Fix the test or production cleanup path so the dispatch-log temp directory is not left non-empty at test cleanup.
Add or preserve focused coverage for broker env restoration while launch runs.
Confirm go test ./cmd/ward and the promote gate pass, or leave exact blocker evidence.
Leave final evidence on this issue with the green run or remaining blocker.

DISPATCH-DEFERRED: capacity blocked. Attempted warded engineer coilyco-flight-deck/ward#1408 --harness codex --workflow pull-request-and-merge at 2026-07-15T11:31Z. Ward rejected the launch because coilyco-flight-deck/ward already had 3 active engineers at the repo limit. Broker evidence: repo engineer limit is reached for coilyco-flight-deck/ward: 3 active engineer(s) (limit 3). Dispatch log: /Users/kai/.ward/agent-logs/dispatch/20260715T113149Z-director-codex-jp85-coilyco-flight-deck-ward-1408.log. Retry this P1 promote recovery as soon as a slot opens.

WARDED_WORKFLOW: reservation-held

reservation details

Holder: launch intent for container engineer-codex-ward-1408 on host kais-macbook-pro-2.local.

Accepted by ward agent --harness codex (reserved 2026-07-15T12:00:01Z). Concurrent ward agent runs are blocked until this intent becomes visible or the intent is released. The stale-intent fallback is still TTL-bounded (3h TTL). --override-reservation overrides.

Do not comment on or edit this issue to steer the run while it is reserved. The engineer seeded the body once at launch and never re-reads it, so a comment or edit reaches only human readers, never the running engineer. A correction goes to a new issue, dispatched fresh. That is the only channel that reaches a run in flight. Where the forge supports it, ward locks this conversation to make that a road-block rather than a convention (ward#494).

run seed context — what this run is carrying (ward#609)

Run: engineer-codex-ward-1408 · ward v0.710.0 · dispatched 2026-07-15T11:59:56Z

Static container doctrine and seed boilerplate are identical every run and omitted here (they ride ward v0.710.0).

QA FAIL after PR #1421 / merge commit c34d7161cc.

PR #1421 merged with green PR test run 8529, but post-merge promote run 8530 / repo run #2252 failed in gate-and-promote during make test:

run 8530 (#2252) failure promote.yml push main "Repair promote gate tempdir cleanup failure after #1404 (#1421)"

That means #1408's acceptance is not met yet: promote.yml has not been shown green after the repair. Filed follow-up #1423 with identical headless/P1 milestone queueing for the post-#1421 promote failure. #1422 is already running for the earlier post-#1407 promote failure, but it was dispatched before run 8530 existed.
