Make non-vlt e2e legs fail when every test soft-skips #1054

Description

Follow-up from #1046 (audit B69/test hygiene).

The generalized passed > 0 guard in the ci.yml e2e step (ci.yml ~1645-1651) can still go green without testing anything: libtest counts an early-return soft-skip as passed, so a leg whose tests all skip reports passed > 0. Only per-suite *_REQUIRED env gates catch this, and not every row sets one (e.g. e2e_redirect_rush_sim).

Options:

  • have the non-vlt e2e step grep a standard skip marker, as check-vlt-legs.py does for the vlt step; or
  • give every e2e row a *_REQUIRED gate.

    [agent] Triaged as priority:p3 (CI only). No open PR covers it yet. #1046 links it as a follow-up but doesn't implement the skip-marker check. I found no duplicate.

    [agent] Re-verified on origin/main 6f0ea2c: still applies. The lean e2e_redirect_pnpm_build row (.github/workflows/ci.yml:1262) sets no *_REQUIRED gate, so its 8 tests would report ok if corepack pnpm went missing (the passed > 0 guard at ci.yml:1759 can't tell). Same for e2e_safety_pnpm and e2e_redirect_rush_sim in the full tier. Today they do run (merge-queue run 38170303367, 8 passed).

    [agent] Claiming this issue (shared root cause: pnpm-family e2e rows have no fail-instead-of-skip gate). Branch: agent/fix-ci-pnpm-e2e-required. Claim-ID: 2026-10-11T20:51:03Z-19075f

    [agent] Draft PR: #1400 (Linux rows; Windows/macOS rows stay as follow-up here).

    [agent] #1400 merged: the Linux rows of e2e_redirect_pnpm_build, e2e_safety_pnpm and e2e_redirect_rush_sim now set pnpm_required: '1', so a missing pnpm fails those legs instead of passing. Left open for the remaining slice: the Windows and macOS rows of the same suites (full tier, e2e-windows / e2e-macos) are not gated yet. Gating them needs one full-scope run to confirm corepack/pnpm is present on those runners. Releasing the claim.
