 name: XCTest Nightly
 
-# The full iOS runner XCTest suite (#1781 A7). The iOS PR phase in apple.yml selects a source-derived
-# subset of the target's methods in an `-only-testing:` list; everything outside that list ran
-# nowhere at all. This lane drops the filter and runs the test plan whole, skipping only
-# `testCommand` — which is the runner's server entry point rather than a test (see the step
-# below).
-#
-# No count is quoted here on purpose. `pnpm check:xctest-selection` prints the live split
-# (declared / PR-selected / skipped / nightly-only) and is the only place those numbers are
-# derived rather than remembered. A hand-copied figure in a comment is the same class of
-# defect this lane exists to close: between this file being written and first review, the
-# suite gained three methods and the PR list gained five entries, so every number originally
-# written here was already wrong.
-#
-# Under the lane rule in #1781:
-#
-#   - Catches: regressions in the simulator-only tests (guard `… && os(iOS)`: they launch
-#     the host app, route through SpringBoard, or assert an iOS-only branch) that apple.yml's
-#     PR list leaves out. Since the A7 classification the pure-decision tests also run on
-#     the macOS phase on every PR (apple.yml), so this lane's
-#     unique reach is the simulator-only remainder — `pnpm check:xctest-selection` prints
-#     both numbers. `testCommand` is skipped, and the tests guarded to macOS/tvOS only
-#     cannot execute on this lane's iOS Simulator destination (the host lane runs them).
-#   - Evidence: the first execution found #1812 in the dark set (2 of 155 red, both real);
-#     the other ~114 never-run tests all passed.
-#   - Cost: this is a public repository, so nothing here is billed. The real cost is one macOS
-#     concurrency slot per night. The Apple runner build shares apple.yml's cache (identical
-#     inputs and build variant), but scheduled runs only see DEFAULT-BRANCH caches, so the hit
-#     depends on apple.yml's `push: main` run having populated the cache at the same source
-#     hash — on a miss this lane also pays a full runner build. Adds nothing to any PR.
-#   - Kill criterion: what ONLY this lane reaches is 11 tests / ~42 s of simulator time
-#     (measured from the first night's xcresult) — the app-launching, SpringBoard-probing
-#     class. Once apple.yml runs the whole iOS-compiled bundle instead of its selected
-#     list — the follow-up stacked on the classification — every test reaches a PR lane and
-#     this lane goes. That trade is not free: those 11 are the flakiest tests in the suite,
-#     and they would land on a blocking 15-minute gate that is already cancelled ~19% of the
-#     time, so measure their flake rate here before moving them.
-#
-# Scheduled + manual only. It is deliberately NOT a PR gate: apple.yml is already over half of
-# this repo's CI spend (#1781 A9), and moving the unrun set onto it would make that worse for
-# tests whose flakiness on a shared runner is unknown.
-#
-# Note on `concurrency` below: it is keyed on `github.ref`, so a manual dispatch on the same
-# ref cancels an in-flight scheduled run. That is the intended trade — an operator asking for
-# a run wants the fresh one — but it means "dispatch while the nightly is running" loses the
-# nightly's result rather than queueing behind it.
+# Run all native iOS regressions nightly and on manual dispatch. PRs keep the host
+# decision suite, shared platform-branch checks, and public CLI E2E smoke.
+# Native fault injection and identity checks remain here; healthy E2E does not
+# replace those contracts. The source-derived count guards against a zero-test run.
