+ *   1. fewest jobs currently `running` in that project, ascending;

+ *   3. final deterministic tiebreak: the project cwd string.
+ *
+ * WHY NOT THE PRD NUMBER. The previous sort key was each project's lowest
+ * pending `parallelGroup`. NN numbers are allocated PER PROJECT
+ * (scheduler.cjs allocateParallelGroup → prdDirForCwd(cwd)) and only ever
+ * grow, so comparing them across projects compares unrelated sequences: a
+ * project with a long PRD history always sorts behind a young one and starves
+ * for as long as the young one keeps queueing. Observed live 2026-09-01:
+ * social-signals-trader (8 pending, lowest NN 3887) got zero starts for 3.5 h
+ * while starry-night-ships (lowest NN 158) took every freed slot. The number
+ * stays a priority hint WITHIN a project (pickForProject) and must never be
+ * used across projects again.
  *
- * O(N) where N = allJobs.length.
+ * Within a project nothing changes: dependsOn gating, failed/skipped-dep
+ * reasons, the per-project cap and parallelGroup-ascending ordering are all
+ * pickForProject's, untouched. Because pickForProject counts a project's
+ * `running` rows from the rows it is handed, each pass hands it a per-tick
+ * view in which the jobs already picked THIS tick are marked running — so the
+ * cap holds across passes and a project is never offered a slot past it.
