Correct the lane=all job estimate.

Line 380 says a run has about 31 jobs. .github/scripts/release-evidence.cjs requires 43 distinct successful job names for qualifying lane=all evidence. The current count therefore understates the job graph used for release planning. Update the total, or label 31 explicitly as a narrower subset and name the jobs it excludes.

Review comment at @AGENTS.md at line 380:
Update the lane=all run estimate from about 31 to 43 distinct successful job names, matching the qualifying evidence requirement; alternatively, label 31 as a narrower subset and identify the excluded jobs.

account has only five macOS slots (a macOS job can queue), so per-PR dispatches starve
every other check. On 2026-10-27, parallel agent lanes dispatched 48 of them in twelve hours (about 13,000
runner-minutes). The queue passed 200 runs, and ordinary PR checks waited hours to start.

The macOS suite has four duration-weighted shards (`macos N/4`, `TEST_SHARD=N/4`), each capped

at 20 minutes. With the widget/bundle job, `lane=all` requests at least five macOS jobs for five
runner slots; a `ci.yml` change also selects the setup-action macOS leg. The unsharded `macos
control` runs only on a `lane=macos-control` dispatch: on `lane=all` it repeated the suite the
four shards had already passed on the same commit, on one worker, for 50 to 60 minutes, and
every release waited for it. Release evidence (`.github/scripts/release-evidence.cjs`) therefore
does not require it.
Widget/bundle waits for `gates`, so the requests need not overlap and a queue is possible rather
than guaranteed. The fourth shard adds setup overhead while dividing the same suite.
