My guess is that  this is again a single global variable that is being
reused in several places (ie the hpack_filter ???) so that it gets
clobbered depending on what linebreak does

It's a local variable passed to a function by value and not changed in
between so can you check if it's not a latex callback wrapper that is
obscuring it? (What groupcoude is shown in pre and not in post?)

no latex involved :-)

I did set up pre_linebreak_filter to find out the cases where line breaking happens on the main vertical list (in contrast to being done in a box, say). Then inside pre_linebreak_filter I run

  tex.linebreak

several times with different looseness (you cann see all my reports coming together :-) ) and record the different results

Then in post_linebreak_filter I replace the generated paragraph node list with something special (basically to drop it) and to be able to find out about the para on the contribution list (which I look at in buildpage_filter). Could probably be done differently but that was the simplest way to get this working for me.

Anyway, I only want to kill paragraphs if they are on the main vertical list but let the others through in normal typesetting so in post_linebreak_filter I go

 if groupcode == "" then ...

only that now groupcode is alway empty while in pre_linebreak_filter it was "vbox" or "adjusted..." etc depending on where I put paragraphs in my test file

so perhaps calling tex.linebreak kills its value

does this help?
