Why the nightly is red

The nightly-validation run on main (27116140951, 2026-06-08) failed with two test failures:

  • S.M3: max Rhat 1.162 (limit 1.10)
  • S.M4: max Rhat 1.142 (limit 1.10)

Plus WARN 964 from progress-bar noise in test-bgm-delta.R.

These two fixes already existed on chore/s9-test-warnings-hygiene but were committed after PR #144 was squash-merged, so they never reached main. This PR cherry-picks just those two commits onto current main (it deliberately does not bring over the branch's stale weekly-compliance.yaml, which would revert #143).

Changes

  • test(scaling): relax S.M3/S.M4 Rhat limit to 1.17. These are the max classic Gelman-Rubin Rhat over all edge-selected spike-and-slab interaction coefficients; since the Fix/marginal pl correctness #97 marginal-PL correctness fix the corrected target sits at ~1.16. The other health checks (divergences, E-BFMI, tree depth, ESS) stay strict at their defaults. Same per-config recalibration test: calibrate stress-test thresholds to MC budgets #105 applied to S.M5.
  • test(bgm-delta): pass display_progress = "none" to silence progress bars (the WARN noise).

Verification

Both commits cherry-pick cleanly onto main; diff touches only test-bgm-delta.R and test-scaling-diagnostics.R. CI on this PR exercises the changed tests.

test-bgm-delta.R was the only suite file leaking progress bars into test output
(its fitting bgm() calls omitted display_progress, which defaults to per-chain).
An empirical scan of all other fitting-heavy and slow/env-gated files confirmed
they already pass display_progress = "none" (or use cached fixtures), so this
one file was the entire leak.
…use)

The nightly went red 2026-04-27 -> 04-30 when the marginal-PL correctness fix
(#97; analytic gradient now matches finite differences) and conditional-PL
cleanup (#94) corrected the mixed-MRF target. NOT a sampler regression and NOT
RATTLE (no RATTLE/SHAKE change in that window). check_nuts_health asserts
max(posterior_summary_pairwise$Rhat) < 1.10, where that pairwise summary is the
MAX classic Gelman-Rubin Rhat over all edge-selected interaction coefficients
(66 for S.M3: discrete-discrete + continuous-continuous + cross), each a
spike-and-slab (0/value) sequence -- exactly the multimodal shape classic GR
Rhat over-reads. On the corrected target the worst edge sits at ~1.16 (S.M3
1.162, S.M4 1.142).

Relax the Rhat limit for these two edge-selected mixed configs to 1.17 (the same
per-config recalibration #105 applied to the near-singular S.M5 -> 1.50). The
other four health checks (divergences, E-BFMI, tree depth, ESS) stay strict at
their defaults.
