Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported command: treeherder-cli --filter "macosx.*gtest" --include-intermittent, then compare its results with the underlying Treeherder API response. Trace where default state narrowing occurs relative to regex filtering. Done means matching jobs are returned even when they are in progress or unscheduled, while existing sheriff workflows remain usable.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Retro after a session with claude:

treeherder-cli --filter ignored matching jobs. treeherder-cli --filter "macosx.*gtest" --include-intermittent returned "No jobs found" when the underlying Treeherder API showed those jobs in mixed states. Looks like the filter is applied after a default state-narrowing pass that drops in-progress / unscheduled tasks. I had to drop to raw curl + python to enumerate. The CLI behaviour is fine for sheriff workflows but surprising for "show me everything matching the regex".
