The selector picked up two suites that can never pass in this stack, so
editing either one turned the check permanently red: the presidio masking
suite calls pytest.fail without an analyzer and anonymizer that up.sh
never starts, and the pipecat audio suite skips itself at import time
unless the NLTK punkt_tab data is present, which nothing installs.
tests/e2e/coverage_registry/test_collector.py had the same problem for a
different reason. Its nested pytest.main autoloads pytest-retry from the
ci group the workflow installs and dies with "INTERNALERROR: no option
named 'filtered_exceptions'", so the collect-only pass now disables that
plugin. The plugin's entry point is pytest-retry, not retry, so the same
one-word fix lands on mutmut's pytest_add_cli_args, where "-p no:retry"
was disabling nothing.
Two smaller holes in the harness: a canary argument the shell never
expanded used to select nothing and let the gate pass green, and a secret
that cannot be represented in both bash and dotenv was rejected without
naming the key.
A harness-only change (proxy_client.py, conftest.py, pytest.ini, the gateway
config, .github/e2e-stack, or the workflow) selected nothing, so the stack was
never exercised by the change that touched it. select_tests.py keeps the
changed-file rule and adds the access_control suite whenever a harness file
changes. The run step now reports the pytest exit code before the evidence
check, prints pytest's summary line per pass so the rerun count is visible,
and assert_tests_ran.py names each failed or errored test as classname::name
