perf(ingestion): Linux-kernel-scale analysis — worker-pool parse + finalize O(n²) + scope-resolution memory wall (#1983) (#2038)
* fix(ingestion): reduce parse-phase memory for huge repos (#1983)

Stop retaining full parse-cache chunks in RAM alongside the merged graph,
slim on-disk shards, defer worker ParsedFile emission for scope-resolver
languages, and add GITNEXUS_DEBUG_HEAP probes for OOM diagnosis.

* fix(ingestion): address #2038 tri-review findings (parse-phase memory)

Resolves the confirmed review findings on PR #2038:

- P1: thread exportedTypeMap through the sequential parse path
  (processParsingSequential) so a no-worker run over a partially-warm
  cache no longer silently drops the sequential-miss files' exported
  types. Cache hits made exportedTypeMap.size > 0, suppressing the
  end-of-loop buildExportedTypeMapFromGraph rebuild, but the sequential
  path never populated the map. Regression test added (fails on the
  pre-fix tree, passes after) plus a fully-sequential differential oracle.
- P2: saveParseCache builds its on-disk index from hashes actually
  written/copied (writtenKeys), never a usedKeys hash whose shard write
  or copy was skipped — no more phantom index entries.
- P2: add a unit test asserting SCOPE_RESOLUTION_LANGUAGES stays in sync
  with SCOPE_RESOLVERS (asymmetric drift would lose a language's ParsedFile).
- Backfill cache coverage: loadParseCacheChunk missing/corrupt -> undefined,
  pruneCache onDiskKeys branch, slim preserves nodes, saveParseCache
  copy-evicted-shard round-trip.
- Cleanups: single-source heap-probe gating via isDebugHeapEnabled();
  hoist the per-chunk mkdir in persistParseCacheChunk behind a
  process-scoped Set; gate COBOL's unused worker-side ParsedFile
  extraction (graph nodes still come from cobolPhase) while keeping
  fileCount/progress unconditional.

* refactor(ingestion): remove dead worker-side ParsedFile extraction

After #2038 gated worker `ParsedFile` emission behind `!isScopeResolutionLanguage(language)`, and with all 16 SupportedLanguages registered in SCOPE_RESOLVERS, that gate was structurally always true — the worker already produced no ParsedFiles and scope-resolution re-extracts each file from source on the main thread (run.ts). Remove the now-dead machinery:

- Drop both worker `extractParsedFile` call-sites (tree-sitter processFileGroup + the standalone-provider branch) and the `result.parsedFiles.push`. The standalone branch keeps fileCount/onFileProcessed per file. `result.parsedFiles` stays declared but empty (field removal deferred).
- Remove the now-orphaned `scopeSourceKind` var + `ScopeCaptureSourceKind`/`extractParsedFile`/`isScopeResolutionLanguage` imports.
- Delete the consumerless `migrated-languages.ts` (isScopeResolutionLanguage + SCOPE_RESOLUTION_LANGUAGES) and its drift-guard test — parse-worker was their only importer. Also improves AGENTS.md "shared ingestion code must not name languages" compliance.

`extractParsedFile` and the scope-extractor-bridge stay (scope-resolution/run.ts + Vue resolver use them). Behavior-preserving: worker-sequential-parity passes before and after; tsc/eslint clean; no baseline/golden drift.

* refactor(ingestion): worker-pool-only parsing; remove sequential parser (#1983)

Completes the #1983 huge-repo parse-OOM effort by making the worker pool
GitNexus's sole parse path.

Parallel serialization (the perf core): workers serialize their ParsedFiles to
a disk store in parallel and stream them back to scope-resolution, so the main
thread no longer re-parses every file (the tree-sitter native-memory leak that
caused the OOM). Adds chunk merge-pipelining + work-proportional chunk sizing so
the pool stays saturated.

Remove the sequential parser: `--workers 0`, `GITNEXUS_WORKER_POOL_SIZE=0`, and
`skipWorkers` now hard-error (no silent degrade — #1741); the small-repo
threshold no longer selects an in-process path; pool creation stays lazy /
cache-miss-gated so warm all-hit runs never spawn workers.

Worker-path parity fixes — removing sequential surfaced two pre-existing gaps
that tiny-fixture tests had masked by running below the worker threshold, both
fixed by carrying per-file metadata as DATA across the worker boundary (never
re-parsing on the main thread, preserving the OOM fix):
  - C++: templateConstraints wired into worker node identity (SFINAE overload
    disambiguation) + ADL / inline-namespace capture side-channel serialized
    onto the ParsedFile.
  - Kotlin: companion-scope side-channel serialized the same way (companion /
    static dispatch).

Validation: tsc + build clean; full suite green (10,190 pass — the only
deterministic failures were the now-fixed C++/Kotlin worker-path gaps; the 2
remaining full-run failures are pre-existing load flakiness, green in
isolation); cpp-pipeline benchmark stays linear on a 1-worker pool.

* fix(ingestion): wire C static-linkage side-channel + ADL O(1) collect + tri-review cleanups (#1983)

Follow-up to the worker-pool-only refactor, from a tri-review of the parse path.

- C static-linkage side-channel (P1): cProvider had no collect/applyCaptureSideChannel,
  so on the now-sole worker path C `static` file-local marks were lost across the worker
  boundary -> false cross-file CALLS edges + over-broad #include wildcard visibility on
  every C analysis (the Linux kernel is C). Mirror the C++/Kotlin wiring: serialize
  `staticNames` per file onto ParsedFile.captureSideChannel and restore it on the main
  thread (no re-parse). + a worker-path regression test (the existing c-static-isolation
  fixture passed vacuously — its collision resolves via #include before the global
  free-call fallback ever consults static-linkage).

- captureSideChannel `kind` discriminant: add `kind:'cpp'`/`kind:'c'` tags + guards
  (Kotlin already had one) now that C/C++/Kotlin share the single generic field.

- Perf: collectCppAdlSideChannel scanned the whole argInfoBySite/noAdlSites maps per file
  (O(F^2) per sub-batch, ~100M parseSiteKey calls at kernel scale). Add per-filePath
  lockstep indexes -> O(1) collect; serialized snapshot byte-identical.

- Cleanups: inline the one-line processParsingWithWorkers wrapper into processParsing;
  drop the always-empty WorkerExtractedData.calls/assignments/constructorBindings fields;
  remove the voided astCache param from processParsing; refresh stale "sequential
  fallback" JSDoc.

Validation: tsc + build clean; cpp 297/297, c 8/8 (incl. the new worker-path
static-linkage guard), typescript + parsedfile-store green; cpp ADL benchmark stays linear.

* perf(scope-resolution): index C/C++ #include resolution in finalize (O(n²)→O(n))

Kernel-scale C/C++ analysis ground in finalizeScopeModel because three
per-#include operations each did a full O(F) scan with no index — the
finalize O(n²) that surfaced once the #1983 parse-phase OOM was fixed:

- expand{C,Cpp}WildcardNames: parsedFiles.find() per wildcard edge → O(R·F)
- resolveImportTarget: new Set(allFilePaths) rebuilt per #include
- resolveCImportTarget: suffix-match scanned all workspace paths

Each is replaced with a WeakMap-per-pass index keyed on the stable
parsedFiles/allFilePaths references that scope-resolution run.ts passes
once per pass:

- Map<ScopeId,ParsedFile> for wildcard expansion (c/static-linkage.ts +
  cpp/file-local-linkage.ts)
- memoized augmented header set (c/scope-resolver.ts + cpp/scope-resolver.ts)
- basename-bucketed suffix index in resolveCImportTarget (c/import-target.ts),
  shared by C and C++ since resolveCppImportTarget delegates to it

Collapses the C/C++ finalize from O(R·F) to O(R+F). Pure-perf, byte-identical
edge output: 962 targeted tests green (490 C + 472 C/C++ scope-resolution);
the basename index preserves the exact endsWith('/'+target) match and the
fewest-path-components-then-lexicographic tie-break.

The kernel's ~25-30k .h headers are classified C++, so both providers must
be fixed. Proven on the Linux kernel: the C finalize completed
(sr-post-finalize lang=c → sr-end lang=c), which the pre-fix run never
reached in 16+ min of grinding.

Build-independent follow-ups (separate from this finalize fix), documented
for later: emitFreeCallFallback same-name buckets (emit phase),
buildGraphNodeLookup + precount global setup, the ParsedFile store-load,
the dart/go/ruby expand-wildcards .find siblings, and the ~26GB
scope-resolution memory floor (full kernel completion needs >~40GB RAM).

* test(bench): regenerate C scope-capture baseline for the #1983 c-static-linkage-worker fixture

bench/scope-capture/measure.mjs fingerprints emitCScopeCaptures over the
lang-resolution/c-* fixture corpus. The #1983 PR added the
c-static-linkage-worker fixture (caller.c/lib.c/lib.h/local.c — the
worker-path static-linkage side-channel test) but did not regenerate the C
baseline, so `--check` has been red on this branch (main, lacking the
fixture, still matches 0de009b).

Pure fixture-corpus drift — no c/captures.ts or query change branch-vs-main,
existing fixtures' captures byte-identical (c-captures.test.ts 45/45),
scaling stays linear (~0.97). Regenerated: 0de009b -> 39f3a83. Bench now
PASS (14 languages). Unrelated to the finalize O(n²) fix.

* perf(scope-resolution): lower kernel-scale resident memory floor + setup cost

Reduce the scope-resolution resident-memory floor and setup throughput on
huge repos (Linux kernel), the wall that remains after #1983 (parse OOM) and
the finalize O(n^2) fix (b71c77b8). Five units; all preserve byte-identical
edge output (C fixture 177n/255e + c/cpp/cross-file/php/static-linkage suites
green, 619 tests).

U1 (src/cli/analyze.ts): RAM-aware auto heap-cap. Replace the hardcoded
16384MB cap with computeHeapCapMb = max(16384, floor(0.75*effectiveRAM)),
where effectiveRAM = min(os.totalmem(), process.constrainedMemory()) with the
unconstrained-sentinel guard. Add --max-semi-space-size=128 on the respawn.
A user-supplied NODE_OPTIONS heap still wins (no re-exec). Verified: 23973MB
on a 31964MB box, 16384 floor on small machines, cgroup-aware, sentinel safe.

U2 (src/storage/parsedfile-store.ts, .../pipeline/phase.ts): export forceGc()
and call it at the per-language eviction boundary, so a finished language's
ParsedFiles are reclaimed before the next language's store-load instead of
collected lazily under the next pass's allocation pressure (which at cap>=RAM
degrades into swap-thrash). Measured on a real drivers/net/ethernet run:
C 2113->894MB and C++ 1754->1057MB reclaimed at the boundary (no fragmentation
defeat). Answers the plan's Open Question 1.

U3 (src/storage/parsedfile-store.ts): intern def objects by nodeId in the load
reviver so a SymbolDefinition's three serialized copies (localDefs /
scope.ownedDefs / scope.bindings[].def) collapse to one shared object on load.
Per-shard def pool (a def's copies are shard-local). Measured ~42% off the
def-object retained heap (3->1; 1.8M->600k distinct objects on 600k defs).

U4 (.../passes/free-call-fallback.ts): memoize pickUniqueGlobalCallable's
post-filter candidate list per (name, callerFilePath), only when no per-caller
visibility filter applies (the list is then a pure function of name+file), so
repeated free calls of one name from a file reuse the same-name-bucket scan
instead of re-walking a potentially huge bucket per site. The cached array is
read-only-consumed by the .filter()-based arity/overload narrowers. Exported
pickUniqueGlobalCallable + buildGlobalCallableIndex and added an equivalence
test (memoized == un-memoized reference for every (name, file, arity),
including warm-cache repeats and cross-file file-local exclusion).

U5 (.../pipeline/phase.ts): replace the O(L*F) per-language precount + repeated
scannedFiles.filter() with a single O(F) partition-by-language pass; bracket
buildGraphNodeLookup with scope-setup-nodeLookup heap probes so the long setup
is no longer silent.

Plan: docs/plans/2026-06-06-001-perf-kernel-scope-resolution-memory-plan.md
(U6 out-of-core global index deferred). Note: the kernel's full C++ pass floor
(~20k headers + the 8.8GB graph) likely still exceeds 24GB by itself, which is
why U6 remains the only unit that clears the wall.

* fix(test): match OOM-guidance e2e assertions to the U1 reworded hint

The analyze-heap-oom-e2e real-child-OOM test still asserted the pre-U1
wording ('...out of memory.' + a hardcoded 24576 cap). U1 reworded the hint
to mention the auto heap-cap and use a <MB> placeholder, so the three
toContain substrings no longer matched (the assertion at line 62 failed on
all platforms). Update them to the current message. The unit twin
(analyze-heap-respawn) was already updated in 85bfc216; this integration
test was missed by the targeted local run.

* perf(lbug): U6a — deterministic id-sorted graph output behind GITNEXUS_SORT_GRAPH_OUTPUT

First increment of U6 (out-of-core scope-resolution). Adds an optional
deterministic ordering of node + relationship CSV rows by their unique graph
id, behind GITNEXUS_SORT_GRAPH_OUTPUT (default OFF = today's graph-insertion
order, byte-identical — the iterator is returned untouched). With the flag ON
the CSV becomes a pure function of the node/edge SET rather than of emit order.

This is the structural enabler for the windowed/out-of-core resolve (U6b-U6d):
csv-generator.ts:518 currently iterates graph.iterRelationships() in insertion
order with NO terminal sort, so any deviation from parsedFiles-order emit would
change bytes. With U6a on, a windowed emit need only reproduce the same edge
SET, not the global insertion order — removing the single largest byte-identical
hazard from every later windowing step.

Verified: default off keeps the existing csv-pipeline suite byte-identical; on,
node rows are id-sorted and output is independent of graph insertion order
(set-build) with the same node/edge set.

* perf(storage): U6d foundation — disk-backed scope store + lazy ScopeTree

Adds scope-index-store.ts: persistScopeShards (per-file scope shards via the
proven mapReplacer + def-interning reviver) + DiskBackedScopeTree, a lazy
ScopeTree that serves getScope from a bounded LRU of decoded shards plus a small
resident skeleton (scopeId -> {shard, childIds, parent}). Exports
makeInterningReviver from parsedfile-store for reuse.

This is the contained, highest-risk mechanism of U6d (out-of-core scope
resolution): the emit passes reach the heavy per-Scope binding payload
(~17-20GB on the kernel) ONLY through scopeTree.getScope (a point lookup) and
getChildren — they never read parsed.scopes directly — so moving that payload to
disk behind getScope is transparent. Every consumer reads a Scope BY VALUE, so a
value-faithful disk round-trip is byte-identical to resolution.

Proven in isolation: DiskBackedScopeTree is value-identical to buildScopeTree
for getScope/getChildren/getParent/getAncestors/has/size across multiple files
and after LRU eviction, and preserves the def-identity collapse (ownedDefs[i]
=== binding.def). Nothing wires it yet (the resolution-pipeline integration is
the next increment) — zero production impact; default off.

* perf(scope-resolution): U6d integration — seal scopeTree to disk before emit (GITNEXUS_DISK_SCOPE_INDEX)

Wires the U6d out-of-core scope index into the live pipeline behind
GITNEXUS_DISK_SCOPE_INDEX (default OFF = byte-identical). When on:

- finalize-orchestrator builds a TransitionalScopeTree (validated, fully
  resident) instead of buildScopeTree, so finalize/propagate/resolve are
  unchanged.
- After resolve, before emit, run.ts seals it: persists the scopes to a
  file-sharded scope-index-store, swaps the model's scopeTree to disk-backed
  serving from the inside (the frozen bundle can't be reassigned, but the
  wrapper nulls its own resident backing), and drops the heavy Scope.bindings
  payload from all THREE holders — the model's tree (seal), the caller's
  preExtractedParsedFiles, and run.ts's own parsedFiles (scope-stripped copies
  for emit). Emit reads scopes only via scopeTree.getScope (a point lookup,
  now disk-backed + LRU) — verified it never reads parsed.scopes.

Purpose: lower the per-language resident PEAK (kernel C pass ~20→~12 GB by
moving the ~8-9 GB scope payload to disk) so the analysis fits on smaller-RAM
machines. At >=24 GB the full kernel already fits with U1-U5 (U2's 8.7 GB
inter-language forceGc reclaim keeps each pass under cap) — empirically
confirmed — so this is the sub-24 GB lever, not needed at 24 GB.

Byte-identical evidence: DiskBackedScopeTree/TransitionalScopeTree return
value-identical scopes vs buildScopeTree (getScope/getChildren/getParent/
getAncestors, across files + after LRU eviction + post-seal); emit reads only
getScope + referenceSites; flag-off (394 tests) and flag-on-resident (91 tests)
resolver suites stay green; an end-to-end A/B on a 212-file C+cpp+rust subset
produced identical 17,444 nodes / 31,343 edges with the seal firing per language
(c: 410→141 MB reclaimed). Kernel-scale peak-drop measurement pending the
in-flight verdict run freeing memory.

* perf(scope-resolution): U6d — id-back workspaceIndex so the disk seal can reclaim scopes

The kernel run revealed the contained scopeTree seal didn't lower the heap:
WorkspaceResolutionIndex held Scope OBJECTS (classScopeByDefId / moduleScopeByFile),
built from every ParsedFile and live through emit, so the ~28k module + class
scopes stayed pinned past the seal (sr-seal-pre 17,583 -> sr-seal-post 17,771 MB,
no drop). It was the sole residual Scope-object holder (SemanticModel holds none).

Fix: classScopeByDefId / moduleScopeByFile become id-backed ScopeByKeyView
instances — a ReadonlyMap<K, Scope> facade over a K->ScopeId map + the scopeTree,
whose .get fetches via scopeTree.getScope(id). The index now pins only ids, so
once the tree seals to disk the scopes become collectible. Byte-identical: the
view returns the same Scope the resident tree holds (or a value-identical revived
one in disk mode), and iteration keeps the old insertion order. buildWorkspace
ResolutionIndex takes an optional scopeTree (live pipeline passes it); without it
(unit tests) the legacy direct Scope-object maps are returned unchanged.

Verified byte-identical: 733 tests across workspace-index / imported-return-types
/ c / cpp / cross-file / go / java. Kernel peak-drop re-measurement to follow.

* perf(scope-resolution): U6d — precompute exportedCallableByName (fix disk-getScope thrash)

The workspaceIndex id-backing freed the kernel scopes but exposed a throughput
collapse: findExportedDefByName's workspace fallback (walkers.ts:1019) scanned
EVERY module scope's bindings per unresolved free call, and under the U6d
disk-backed scopeTree each module-scope access faulted a shard in from disk —
lib ON went ~1min -> ~7.5min.

Fix: precompute the fallback result once into
WorkspaceResolutionIndex.exportedCallableByName (simpleName -> first module-local
callable def, first-file-wins — the exact semantics the scan returned), built
from the resident module-scope bindings at index-build time. findExportedDefByName
now does an O(1) lookup with zero disk reads.

Result: lib ON ~7.5min -> 21s (cache-warm), byte-identical 17,444/31,343; 758
tests green across workspace-index + c/cpp/cross-file/go/python.

* docs: rename cryptic U-unit codes to descriptive names in comments

The plan-unit shorthand (U3/U4/U6a/U6d/...) was meaningless in the code.
Renamed in comments + test descriptions (no behavior change, byte-identical):
  out-of-core scope index   (was U6)
  deterministic output      (was U6a)
  disk-backed scope seal    (was U6d)
  def-object interning      (was U3)
  free-call candidate cache (was U4)
Also renamed throughout the PR title/summary. Pushed commit messages keep
their original U-codes as historical record.

* fix(ingestion): durable ParsedFile shards for warm-cache coverage (#2038)

On a warm re-analyze where every chunk is a parse-cache HIT, no parse worker
runs, the run-scoped ParsedFile store is cleared at parse start, and the cached
ParseWorkerResult carries no ParsedFiles (the worker writes them to the store
and empties them from the message). Scope-resolution then found an empty store
and fell back to main-thread extractParsedFile — re-opening the #1983
tree-sitter native-leak OOM the disk store closes (abhigyanpatwari review on
parse-cache.ts).

Fix: workers ALSO write their ParsedFiles to a durable, content-addressed store
(parsedfile-cache/) keyed by chunk hash, mirroring the parse cache's lifecycle
(version-gated by PARSE_CACHE_VERSION, pruned in lockstep to the surviving
keys). On a warm hit the chunk's durable shards are byte-COPIED into the
run-scoped store (no re-parse, no re-serialize -> byte-identical), so
scope-resolution streams them exactly as on a cold run. A coherence gate
re-dispatches the worker whenever a cached chunk's durable shards are missing
(migration / pruned / version-stale) -- never the main-thread extract.

- worker-pool/parse-worker: thread chunkHash through dispatch->job->flush
  (incl. split/requeue) so the worker tags its durable shard by content
- parsedfile-store: durable persist / restore / index / prune API (sibling
  dir, never cleared per run); content-addressing makes stale reuse impossible
- parse-impl: load durable index, gate the cache hit on durable coverage,
  restore on hit, dispatch chunkHash on miss
- run-analyze: prune+save the durable store to the parse cache's surviving keys
- saveParseCache returns its written keys (the durable keepKeys)

Verified on linux/lib: warm preExtractedHits = full coverage (520/207/1, zero
main-thread re-parse), byte-identical cold==warm (17,456n/31,353e), warm 8.5x
faster. New two-run + mixed-mode + coherence-gate regression test.

* fix(ingestion): clear stale scope-index-store shards on each seal (#2038)

The disk-backed scope index writes sequential s<n>.json shards into a shared
<storagePath>/scope-index-store/ dir, with the index resetting per
persistScopeShards call. A seal that writes fewer shards than a previous one
(a later language with fewer files, or a re-run of a shrunken repo) left stale
tail shards on disk indefinitely -- never read by the disk-backed tree, but
multi-GB on kernel-scale repos.

Add clearScopeIndexStore() and clear at the start of persistScopeShards: the
previously sealed language has finished emit and been released before the next
seal runs, so its DiskBackedScopeTree never reads those shards again. Unit
tests: a stale prior-run shard is removed, a fewer-files re-seal leaves no tail
shards, and the helper is idempotent.

Addresses abhigyanpatwari review on run.ts (disk hygiene for the
GITNEXUS_DISK_SCOPE_INDEX path).

feat(workers): self-healing worker pool + deferred-resolution observability (#1741) (#1947)
* fix(workers): fail fast instead of silently degrading on worker-pool startup failure (#1741)

When an explicitly-sized worker pool (--workers <N>) fails to start because
every worker crashes during top-of-script init, the parse phase used to log a
swallowed `logger.warn` and silently fall back to the ~10x slower sequential
parser. In #1741 (rc99) that turned a worker-startup regression into a
123-minute "stuck" parse with no explanation.

This change:
- Surfaces the real crash: the pool now spawns workers with `{ stderr: true }`,
  tees + captures each worker's stderr, and attaches the tail to its
  readiness-failure messages (propagated via
  WorkerPoolInitializationError.readinessFailures). "did not report ready"
  now carries the underlying native-binding/import error.
- Gates the fallback: when --workers was explicit and fallback was not opted
  into, a total startup failure throws an actionable error instead of
  degrading. Auto-sized pools still fall back, but loudly (logger.error +
  progress warning). New --allow-sequential-fallback flag (+ i18n) opts back in.
- Adds env-gated worker bootstrap-stage logging (GITNEXUS_WORKER_BOOTSTRAP /
  --verbose): imports+grammars loaded -> ready sent -> first task received, so
  a slow/crashing startup is diagnosable.

Tests: all-workers-failed gating (fatal vs loud degrade), stderr surfacing,
and the updated lazy-cache fallback contract (opt-in flag + fail-fast).

* feat(ingestion): always-on slow-file watchdog for deferred call resolution (#1741)

The original #1741 symptom is a run that appears stuck at "Resolving calls
(all chunks)... (9000/18066 files)" — the progress bar freezes inside a single
file's call resolution and nothing reaches the log. Rich per-file deferred
diagnostics already exist, but only behind --verbose / GITNEXUS_PROFILE_DEFERRED,
so a plain `analyze` run gives the user a frozen bar and silence.

Add an always-on (not verbose-gated) per-file watchdog in
processCallsFromExtracted: when a single file's call resolution exceeds
alwaysOnSlowFileWarnMs() (default 15s, override GITNEXUS_SLOW_FILE_WARN_MS,
0 disables) it emits a throttled logger.warn naming the culprit file and the
files-resolved-so-far — turning the silent stall into one actionable line.
Throttled (>=30s between warnings) so a genuinely slow repo can't storm the log.
The watchdog is observation-only; resolution behavior is unchanged.

Note: deliberately did NOT add a heritage child x parent product cap — the name
lookups are O(1) (type-registry Map.get) and the product is bounded, so the
heritage build is not the bottleneck; a cap would risk dropping real edges for
no measured gain.

* test(ingestion): worker-vs-sequential parity guard for binding/edge collapse (#1741)

rc99 produced almost no bindings/edges (13 bindings vs rc91's 106,305) because
a worker-path failure left extracted results unmerged while the run still
reported success. Rather than an arbitrary "implausibly low" runtime threshold
(which false-positives on legitimately low-binding repos/languages), pin the
invariant directly: for the same repo, worker mode and sequential mode must
produce the same graph.

The test runs the ts-simple cross-file fixture through worker mode
(workerPoolSize + lowered threshold) and sequential mode (skipWorkers), and
asserts: usedWorkerPool is true/false respectively (guards the test itself
against a silent fallback masking divergence), identical CALLS/IMPORTS/DEFINES/
HAS_METHOD edge sets and Class/Function/Method defs, and non-zero CALLS/IMPORTS
(the rc99 collapse signature).

* fix(workers): arm fail-fast for env-sized pools + fix watchdog /0 denominator (#1741)

Addresses two review findings on the #1741 worker-startup PR:

- Fail-fast gate missed the env channel. `explicitWorkers` keyed only off
  the `--workers` flag, so a pool sized via `GITNEXUS_WORKER_POOL_SIZE`
  (with no `--workers`) silently degraded to sequential on a total
  worker-startup crash — reproducing the original #1741 symptom for
  env-channel operators. The gate now arms on a non-zero size from either
  channel, via a single-source `envWorkerPoolSize()` helper exported from
  worker-pool.ts (also rewired through resolveAutoPoolSize). The fatal
  message now names the channel actually used instead of "--workers undefined".

- Always-on slow-file watchdog printed "Resolved N/0 files". `resolvedTotal`
  was pre-counted only on the profile path, but the watchdog reads it on
  every run, so a plain `analyze` showed a bogus /0 denominator on exactly
  the unprofiled hang the watchdog exists to explain. Pre-count now runs
  whenever its result is read (profile path OR watchdog active).

Tests: strengthened the watchdog test to assert "1/1" (not "/0"); added
env-channel fail-fast/degrade cases and made the gating suite hermetic
against an ambient GITNEXUS_WORKER_POOL_SIZE.

* feat(workers): self-healing worker pool replaces the fail-fast flag (#1741)

Replaces the interim --allow-sequential-fallback flag with automatic,
bounded self-healing in the worker pool — industry-standard supervision
(OTP restart-intensity, systemd StartLimit, circuit-breaker, AWS jittered
backoff) translated to the Node worker_threads pool.

worker-pool.ts — bounded startup self-heal (the missing layer):
- A worker that crashes during top-of-script init is now RETRIED with
  capped, full-jitter backoff (BASE 250ms, CAP 2s) up to a small per-slot
  budget, so a transient blip heals itself with no operator action. The
  prior code dropped an unready initial slot on its first crash.
- A DETERMINISTIC crash-loop (>=2 fresh workers crash with the same
  normalized signature before any reaches ready — the #1741 missing
  native-binding case) is detected and short-circuited, so the pool gives
  up in ~1s instead of burning every slot's budget. Correctness rests on
  the STRUCTURAL signal (zero workers ever ready + budget exhausted), so a
  missed signature only costs a few seconds, never a misfire; even a
  stderr-less crash groups via its normalized "exited with code N" message.
- Backoff sleeps are cancellable (unref'd timer + abort on terminate), so
  terminate() can't be wedged for the backoff duration.
- WorkerPoolInitializationError now carries a crashClass for an accurate,
  flag-free message. The runtime respawn/breaker path is unchanged.

parse-impl.ts — collapse to automatic fail-fast:
- handleWorkerStartupFailure always logs the real cause then THROWS with
  the captured crash + `--workers 0` as the explicit sequential escape.
  No more degrade branch; no dependence on how the pool was sized. This is
  reached only after the bounded self-heal is exhausted, so it can't
  resurrect the #1741 silent 123-minute sequential grind. Construction
  failure (broken install) also fails fast instead of degrading silently.

Removed --allow-sequential-fallback end to end (CLI, run-analyze, pipeline,
i18n). --workers 0 remains the explicit "parse sequentially" path; one flag
removed, none added. Grounded in a research+critique pass; the critique's
hazards (N-parallel race, empty-stderr timing, non-cancellable sleep,
runtime-breaker regression) are addressed or scoped out by design.

Tests: startup self-heal (transient recovers; deterministic fails fast
without burning the budget); gating test rewritten to the fail-fast-always
contract; obsolete degrade test removed.

* fix(workers): ref + cancel startup backoff so transient retries aren't dropped (#1741 U1)

abortableSleep unref'd its backoff timer, so a transient startup retry could be
silently dropped if that timer was the last ref'd handle on the event loop —
the process could exit mid-recovery. Keep the timer ref'd (a pending retry is
necessary work) and register a cancel fn in a pool-scoped set; terminate() now
clears pending backoffs so it can't be wedged for the backoff cap. A normally
fired timer self-deregisters (clear-on-settle), so no timer lingers after a
slot's retry loop exits. Exposes pendingStartupTimers in getStats.

Tests: terminate-during-backoff cancels + spawns nothing after (R2); the
recovery test now asserts no startup timer lingers after settle (R1).

* fix(workers): route GITNEXUS_WORKER_POOL_SIZE=0 to sequential, not a phantom fail-fast (#1741 U2)

env=0 (no --workers) built a size-0 pool that threw a fabricated "retry budget
exhausted / native binding" crash. The shouldUseWorkers gate now routes env=0
to the sequential path before pool construction — but only when no explicit
--workers <N> was given, so an explicit positive size wins over an ambient
env=0. The route emits one log line so the undocumented (possibly accidental)
env=0 case is observable instead of a silent degrade.

envWorkerPoolSize is un-exported (module-internal sizing reader); a new
workerPoolDisabledByEnv() predicate serves the gate. Empty/whitespace env is
now treated as unset (auto formula), not 0 — an empty assignment is an accident,
not a request for zero workers. Reattached the detached resolveAutoPoolSize
JSDoc and corrected the stale docstring.

Tests: env=0 → sequential (no spawn); explicit --workers wins over env=0;
workerPoolDisabledByEnv unit (0=true, positive/empty/invalid=false); getStats
shape updated for pendingStartupTimers.

* fix(workers): make deterministic crash-loop detection conservative (#1741 U3)

The old tally counted crash EVENTS in a shared signature->count map, so a
simultaneous transient crash storm (e.g. spawn EAGAIN under fork pressure) or
a single slot crashing identically twice falsely tripped "deterministic" and
hard-aborted work that would have self-healed. Replace it: a crash counts
toward deterministic only after its signature REPRODUCES across a respawn on
the same slot, and the short-circuit fires once >=2 distinct slots reproduced
(or 1 for a size-1 pool). Every slot now gets >=1 self-heal attempt before any
short-circuit; the structural budget floor still bounds the worst case.

crashSignature now also collapses Windows backslash paths and bare (no-0x) hex
runs so the fast-path fires on those platforms; exported for unit testing.

Tests: simultaneous storm self-heals (the discriminator vs an attempt-0 rule);
distinct-per-attempt crashes classify transient-exhausted; single-slot
reproduction classifies deterministic; crashSignature normalization unit.

* fix(workers): class-aware startup failure hint + reattach detached JSDoc (#1741 U4)

The "often a missing/broken native binding" hint was appended to every
failure class, including a pool *construction* failure where no worker ever
ran (a missing build / bad worker path). Make the hint class-aware: keep it
for the readiness/init classes, use a construction-specific hint otherwise,
and surface the construction error (e.g. "Worker script not found: …")
verbatim. Reattach the waitForWorkerReady JSDoc that the stderr-capture block
had detached from its function. (The abortableSleep docstring was already
corrected in U1.)

Tests: construction message surfaces the real error + drops the native-binding
guess; deterministic/transient messages keep the hint (regression guard).
