Description
Bug
temporal schedule create and temporal schedule update accept --priority-key, --fairness-key, and --fairness-weight flags (via SharedWorkflowStartOptions) but silently discard them. The values never reach the server.
Root cause
toScheduleAction in internal/temporalcli/commands.schedule.go calls buildStartOptions, which correctly populates opts.Priority, but the resulting client.ScheduleWorkflowAction literal does not include the Priority field:
action := &client.ScheduleWorkflowAction{
ID: opts.ID,
Workflow: sw.Type,
TaskQueue: opts.TaskQueue,
WorkflowExecutionTimeout: opts.WorkflowExecutionTimeout,
WorkflowRunTimeout: opts.WorkflowRunTimeout,
WorkflowTaskTimeout: opts.WorkflowTaskTimeout,
UntypedSearchAttributes: untypedSearchAttributes,
Memo: opts.Memo,
StaticSummary: opts.StaticSummary,
StaticDetails: opts.StaticDetails,
// Priority: opts.Priority <-- missing
}
client.ScheduleWorkflowAction does have a Priority field in the SDK (confirmed in go.temporal.io/sdk@v1.41.1).
Fix
Add Priority: opts.Priority to the ScheduleWorkflowAction struct literal in toScheduleAction. This fixes both schedule create and schedule update since they share the same function.
Also
schedule describe text output (printableSchedule) does not surface the priority field. JSON output works correctly via raw proto passthrough.
