MGS3040: a job check its worker cannot run

magus job fork, magus job apply and magus\job.put refused a job record whose check its worker could never run to a passing record:

[MGS3040] check.target "tset" is not a target of project ".": name one
  `magus describe targets` lists

Nothing was written to the job store.

What fires it

• A check naming a project or a target the workspace does not have.
• A check the guard would deny the worker, including one only the lease gate lets through.
• A check only a person may run.
• A check whose arguments narrow away the tests of the packages the job writes, such as a -run that matches none of them.

Why

The check is the evidence the job is accepted on. A check the worker cannot run leaves it with no way to finish, and the refusal comes after the work is done.

What to do

Name a target the workspace has, in the project the job writes, with arguments that still run the tests of the packages it changes. magus describe targets lists the targets.
