This appears to me to be a program failing and the invoking module

returning to your RPG, and runs again.

Try placing an error indicator on the call to your CLP. You can
then handle the error how you see fit. It could be a timing issue
where your CPYF tables are locked when the CLP is first run.

Might explain why it's occasionally re-running. Imagine that the CL
runs, gets an error and someone answers the QSYSOPR messages with a C
to cancel the CLP and then an R to re-try in the RPG.

I doubt that, per:

The chosen snippet of joblog, unless highly redacted, would presumably contain _something_ indicative of that effect.? The CLP has no monitors, so if there were any failure in the CLP, there would be expected to show a *FC and a CPA0701, the reply message. If the CLP did somehow terminate directly to the RPG [without any visible CL run-time handling], then the equivalent RPG run-time default handler and its inquiry equivalent to CPA0701 would presumably have appeared, again with the reply message, plus any preceding error messages are unlikely to get removed by the RPG program.? And most notably, the apparent _normal_ CL program /RETURN/ [the RETURN message F/QCLRTNE] effect shown, seems to contradict any speculation that the CL failed in any way.
