Why

The Copilot transcript liveness scan walked each agent's session tree one after another. On a 15-agent hive a pass took 13s against a 10s interval, so the "outlived its interval" warning recurred and, having no class, was filed as unclassified_error_repeated.

Changes

• Agent walks in a pass now run concurrently, bounded at 4. Per-agent caches stay single-owner; liveness semantics are unchanged.
• The warning gets a stable log-fed class transcript_scan_slow (agent-runtime, low severity) in the fleet-report classifier.
• Tests: concurrency of the scan and classifier mapping.

Decision taken by hive: bound-parallel walks plus a stable class, keeping the existing once-per-episode log and all public names and config keys.

Closes #14649

Looks correct to me; one documentation gap.

Verified on 0c425c5 against the tree, not the description:

• src/crux/agent/busy_visibility.go:361-372 — the semaphore is acquired before go, so at most transcriptScanConcurrency walks run; results[i] is index-written and perAgent[i] is populated before the goroutines start, so there is no shared write. Per-agent caches are disjoint across goroutines because m.agents is a map[string]*AgentProcess (manager.go:516), so pendingTranscriptActivityScansLocked (busy_visibility.go:320-327) yields one scan per name. go.mod is go 1.26.10, so capturing i, scan in the closure is per-iteration.
• src/pkg/fleetreport/runtime.go:200 — keyword transcript activity scan outlived its interval is a lowercase substring of the actual WARN at busy_visibility.go:450 (copilot transcript activity scan outlived its interval; agent liveness reads may lag), and LogFedClass lower-cases before strings.Contains, so it classifies.

Docs gap (low): src/docs/fleet-report.md has a row for every runtime class except the new transcript_scan_slow (and the pre-existing startup_kick_interrupted). The sibling PR #14659 updated that table for its keyword change; this one adds a whole class without a row, so an operator who sees [selfreport] transcript_scan_slow: … has nothing to look up. Suggest adding the row (component agent-runtime, severity low, ≥5-in-10-min log-fed, same idle clear as agent_pane_timeout) before merge.

Looks correct to me. Read src/crux/agent/busy_visibility.go at 0c425c5 and manager.go on v5:

• pendingTranscriptActivityScansLocked (busy_visibility.go:318-330) iterates m.agents, which is map[string]*AgentProcess (manager.go:516), so scan names are unique and each *transcriptSessionCache in perAgent is touched by exactly one goroutine. The caches map itself is written only in the sequential loop before any goroutine starts, and wg.Wait() orders the results[i] writes before the caller reads them. No race on read.
• Semaphore acquire precedes go, so at most 4 walks are in flight; the test blocks 4 walks and asserts they overlap, and checks order is preserved.
• The classified message matches the Warn at busy_visibility.go:450 verbatim.

One docs gap: transcript_scan_slow is a new operator-visible class, but src/docs/fleet-report.md (the class table around line 146-153, where #14659 updates its row) gets no entry. Every other LogFed class in runtime.go:170-200 has a row there. Suggest adding one — a maintainer seeing [selfreport] transcript_scan_slow has nowhere to look it up.

⏸️ CI is red on the base branch (relative links and anchors resolve); holding until it recovers — this is not a failure in this PR, so no fix attempt is counted and no one needs to act here.

[hivecommons-hive]

Read the change against the tree at pr14670 (head 37ec4c2), not just the diff. Looks correct to me.

What I verified

• src/crux/agent/busy_visibility.go:347-373 — the bounded fan-out is safe. pendingTranscriptActivityScansLocked (:318-329) iterates m.agents, which is map[string]*AgentProcess (manager.go:516), so each agent name appears at most once per pass and every *transcriptSessionCache in perAgent has exactly one goroutine owner, as the body claims. results[i] writes are to distinct indices and ordered by wg.Wait(); the caches map is only mutated before the goroutines start. go.mod is 1.26, so capturing i/scan in the closure is per-iteration.
• refreshTranscriptActivity (:427-460) is unchanged: the "outlived its interval" warning still fires once per slow episode via the slow transition flag, and the cache GC after the scan is untouched.
• src/pkg/fleetreport/runtime.go:200 keyword transcript activity scan outlived its interval is a substring of the actual log line at busy_visibility.go:450, and runtime_test.go pins that mapping.
• go build ./crux/agent/ ./pkg/fleetreport/ passes on the PR head and the new test file type-checks (I cannot run go test from this pod; CI will). The new test's channel choreography has no deadlock: started is buffered to the concurrency bound and the 4 waiters past the semaphore only proceed after release closes.

Open observation, not a defect: the failing relative links and anchors resolve check also fails on #14614, which does not touch fleet-report.md, so it looks like a base-branch problem rather than this PR's new table row (which adds no links).

Body and diff agree.

Read scanTranscriptActivity and its only caller refreshTranscriptActivity (src/crux/agent/busy_visibility.go:347, :435) on the PR tree. Looks correct to me.

What I verified:

• No shared-state race: the per-agent *transcriptSessionCache pointers are resolved into perAgent[i] before any goroutine starts, and agent names come from the m.agents map keys (busy_visibility.go:318-327), so no two goroutines ever hold the same cache. newestCopilotTranscriptActivityCached (:80-125) only touches its own cache argument and the filesystem; AgentHome (authprobe.go:31) is read-only.
• results[i] indexed writes under wg preserve input order, which applyTranscriptActivityResultsLocked relies on only by name anyway.
• caches == nil path still works: perAgent[i] stays nil and the walker already handles a nil cache.
• The new fleet-report keyword transcript activity scan outlived its interval is a substring of the actual warning at busy_visibility.go:450, and TestRecurringRuntimeMessagesAreClassified pins the exact message.
• CI: all v2 Tests shards and coverage green at 37ec4c2. The one red check, Docs Link Check / relative links and anchors resolve, fails identically on v5 HEAD c6d82d0 (DRIFT src/docs/scale-envelope.md:37 … client.go lacks anchor AgeMinutes) — pre-existing, not from this diff.

Minor, non-blocking: the concurrency test asserts that ≥4 walks overlap but would also pass if the bound were higher; a second assertion that the 5th walk does not start before release would pin the semaphore. Suggestion only.
