 Local changed-lane logic lives in `scripts/changed-lanes.mjs` and is executed by `scripts/check-changed.mjs`. That local check gate is stricter about architecture boundaries than the broad CI platform scope: core production changes run core prod and core test typecheck plus core lint/guards, core test-only changes run only core test typecheck plus core lint, extension production changes run extension prod and extension test typecheck plus extension lint, and extension test-only changes run extension test typecheck plus extension lint. Public Plugin SDK or plugin-contract changes expand to extension typecheck because extensions depend on those core contracts, but Vitest extension sweeps are explicit test work. Release metadata-only version bumps run targeted version/config/root-dependency checks. Unknown root/config changes fail safe to all check lanes.
 
-On pushes, the `checks` matrix adds the push-only `compat-node22` lane. On pull requests, that lane is skipped and the matrix stays focused on the normal test/channel lanes.
+On pushes and manual dispatches, `checks-node-compat-node22` runs the Node 22 compatibility build/smoke lane. On pull requests, that lane is skipped and the matrix stays focused on the normal Node 24 test/channel lanes.
 
 The slowest Node test families are split or balanced so each job stays small without over-reserving runners: channel contracts run as three weighted shards, bundled plugin tests balance across six extension workers, small core unit lanes are paired, auto-reply runs as four balanced workers with the reply subtree split into agent-runner, dispatch, and commands/state-routing shards, and agentic gateway/plugin configs are spread across the existing source-only agentic Node jobs instead of waiting on built artifacts. Broad browser, QA, media, and miscellaneous plugin tests use their dedicated Vitest configs instead of the shared plugin catch-all. Extension shard jobs run up to two plugin config groups at a time with one Vitest worker per group and a larger Node heap so import-heavy plugin batches do not create extra CI jobs. The broad agents lane uses the shared Vitest file-parallel scheduler because it is import/scheduling dominated rather than owned by a single slow test file. `runtime-config` runs with the infra core-runtime shard to keep the shared runtime shard from owning the tail. Include-pattern shards record timing entries using the CI shard name, so `.artifacts/vitest-shard-timings.json` can distinguish a whole config from a filtered shard. `check-additional` keeps package-boundary compile/canary work together and separates runtime topology architecture from gateway watch coverage; the boundary guard shard runs its small independent guards concurrently inside one job. Gateway watch, channel tests, and the core support-boundary shard run concurrently inside `build-artifacts` after `dist/` and `dist-runtime/` are already built, keeping their old check names as lightweight verifier jobs while avoiding two extra Blacksmith workers and a second artifact-consumer queue.
 Android CI runs both `testPlayDebugUnitTest` and `testThirdPartyDebugUnitTest`, then builds the Play debug APK. The third-party flavor has no separate source set or manifest; its unit-test lane still compiles that flavor with the SMS/call-log BuildConfig flags, while avoiding a duplicate debug APK packaging job on every Android-relevant push.
-`extension-fast` is PR-only because push runs already execute the full bundled plugin shards. That keeps changed-plugin feedback for reviews without reserving an extra Blacksmith worker on `main` for coverage already present in `checks-node-extensions`.
-
 GitHub may mark superseded jobs as `cancelled` when a newer push lands on the same PR or `main` ref. Treat that as CI noise unless the newest run for the same ref is also failing. Aggregate shard checks use `!cancelled() && always()` so they still report normal shard failures but do not queue after the whole workflow has already been superseded.
 The automatic CI concurrency key is versioned (`CI-v7-*`) so a GitHub-side zombie in an old queue group cannot indefinitely block newer main runs. Manual full-suite runs use `CI-manual-v1-*` and do not cancel in-progress runs.
