In `@src/cloudai/workloads/megatron_bridge/slurm_command_gen_strategy.py`:
- Line 234: Update the post-test allocation setup around
_append_resource_directives to aggregate all post_test.test_runs: use the
maximum declared node count and longest time_limit, while preserving the
corresponding resource directives. Capture and propagate the returned hostfile
path through _append_sbatch_directives so nodelist-mode post-hooks retain the
SLURM_HOSTFILE export.
- Around line 432-444: The post-hook submission flow must preserve the training
job ID as the canonical Slurm ID. Update the `post_hook_lines` handling around
`POST_HOOK_JOB_ID` so successful post-hook submission does not emit it as
`Submitted batch job`; retain the original `${JOB_ID}` emission for
`SlurmRunner.get_job_id()`. On post-hook submission failure, log the error while
still emitting the training job ID before exiting or otherwise returning.
In `@tests/workloads/megatron_bridge/test_command_gen_strategy_slurm.py`:
- Line 324: Add a second post-test run with larger num_nodes and a longer
time_limit to the post_test scenario, then assert the generated `#SBATCH` -N and
`#SBATCH` --time directives cover the maximum requirements across both runs.
Update the assertion for the canonical “Submitted batch job” line to expect
POST_HOOK_JOB_ID, preserving the tracked-ID substitution behavior in
_gen_post_hook_sbatch.

In `@src/cloudai/workloads/megatron_bridge/slurm_command_gen_strategy.py`:
- Around line 274-281: The post-hook allocation mutates the reused strategy’s
cached node specification, causing the first post-test srun to inherit
aggregated nodes. In the post-hook resource-directive logic around
_append_resource_directives, resolve the allocation node spec using a throwaway
strategy instance or clear strategy._node_spec_cache in the finally block, then
update tests/workloads/megatron_bridge/test_command_gen_strategy_slurm.py lines
375-378 to assert post_one requests one node and post_two requests three nodes.
In `@tests/workloads/megatron_bridge/test_command_gen_strategy_slurm.py`:
- Around line 375-378: Add assertions in the test covering post-hook command
generation to verify the per-run srun node counts: the post_one invocation must
request one node, while post_two must request three nodes. Keep the existing
SBATCH allocation and stdout-path assertions unchanged.

shouldn't it be a sum of time limits rather than the max?

shall we implement hook status tracking? at the moment I can't see that failures are handled anyhow

I think it's related to my other comment below - we can't right now naturally track it really

this makes cloudai not wait for the post hook to actually finish and check its status
I researched a bit and at the moment there's really no clean work-around to make it work properly. However, I work on re-writing MBridge integration into CloudAI so that eventually CloudAI owns sbatch submission and post/pre test hooks should be supported naturally just like for other workloads
https://github.com/NVIDIA/cloudai/pull/1021/changes
it will need two days more though to finish
long story short, this comment is mostly fyi, I don't request any change here

236-236: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy liftUse the base SBATCH directive helper for the post-hook script.
Line 236 adds only resource directives after this method manually emits a partial SBATCH header. This bypasses centralized handling for directives such as distribution,
extra_sbatch_args, GPU settings, node selection, and exclusions. A configured cluster can then receive a post-hook allocation that differs from the training allocation contract.Extract a reusable resource/header helper from
SlurmCommandGenStrategy._append_sbatch_directives, or invoke the base helper and extend only the post-hook-specific fields.Based on learnings: workload-specific standalone sbatch generation must reuse the base SBATCH directive helpers instead of reimplementing a partial directive set.

Summary
Adds Megatron Bridge post-hook support in CloudAI.
The flow keeps Megatron Bridge behavior aligned with its launcher-based execution model:
afteranyon the Megatron Bridge training job ID.cloudai installnow recursively collects installables frompre_testandpost_testscenarios, so hook-owned dependencies declared in hook TOMLs are installed.This is needed for integrations such as CloudAIx Spork processing, where the post-hook TOML owns a
GitRepoinstallable for the internalnsight-analysisrepo.Test Plan
