Both clone POSTs take background: true: every check answers synchronously,
then 202 {job}. git runs in a detached runner (scripts/clone-runner.js, its
own process group, stderr to a file — no SIGPIPE when the server restarts);
the server tails it for progress and runs the after-step (workspace / extra
folder) once when it exits. Jobs persist in <data dir>/runtime/clone-jobs.json
(0600, atomic, throttled progress writes); on start a live runner is adopted
(counted against the clone limit), an ended one finished, a queued one
requeued (interrupted if it carried a typed login), the rest interrupted.
GET /clone/jobs, DELETE /clone/jobs/:id, POST /clone/jobs/:id/cancel (queued:
dequeued; running: SIGTERM to the runner's group -> cancelled, no after-step)
and /retry (new job from the stored request, never a credential). The
held-open path is unchanged; worktree.gitCommand builds the runner's argv
and git-identity.cloneFailure the shared error classification.
