Research direction
Start by locating the Salt minion code that creates and removes jobID-named files in the proc directory; the issue does not mention a file, test, or entry point to begin with. Trace the cleanup path and document the trigger and retention behavior, then confirm the explanation against the relevant tests if any exist.
