create_session.sh detaches `reconcile.sh --subscribe --idle-timeout 0` per
workspace; test sandboxes never reaped it and the daemon neither noticed its
workspace vanish nor honoured SIGTERM (bash deferred the signal behind the
foreground python child). 202 orphans were found holding public-broker
wildcard subscriptions for deleted pytest tmpdirs.
- daemon.py / lib.sh: MAM_NO_SUBSCRIBER_DAEMON=1 (literal) skips the spawn but
still reports a running daemon; cli prints a stderr note, stdout stays empty.
- reconcile.sh: python subscriber runs as a waited background child with a
TERM/INT trap (exit 143); the MQTT loop exits when the workspace dir is gone
or .mam/monitor.lock is no longer the held inode; SIGTERM/SIGINT handled via
the stop event so loop_stop/disconnect run; the polling fallback checks the
same and sleeps in a waited child.
- conftest: sandbox default MAM_NO_SUBSCRIBER_DAEMON=1, per-sandbox reaper
finalizer, session-scope leak guard over the pytest basetemp.
- tests: 11 lifecycle tests (tests/test_issue19_subscriber_daemon_lifecycle.py);
phase-1 watchdog/daemon characterization tests opt back in.
- docs: monitor SKILL.md lifecycle contract + pitfalls, create SKILL.md note.

Adds the python side of the delegation helpers and switches lib.sh over to it.
daemon.py port of start_watchdog. Same monitor path, same pgrep pattern, so
a daemon started by either implementation is found by the other;
same stderr wording and exit 1 when reconcile.sh is missing; same
"print the PID" contract, multiple pgrep matches included, since
the shell echoed them all and trimming would be a silent change.
start_new_session detaches it, and SIGHUP is ignored across the
exec so it outlives its parent exactly as nohup did.
cli.py thin router. submit/publish forward to the existing main() of the
module that already owned the behaviour, so exit codes, stdout
shape and side effects cannot drift between the shell path and
the script path. Only ensure-daemon carries logic of its own.
service.py DelegationService facade, with an optional persistent connection
for the phase 2a engine. CLI and shell always use one-shot.
lib.sh keeps the three legacy bodies verbatim as _*_legacy behind
MAM_DELEGATION_PY=0, which is the instant rollback switch. PYTHONPATH is passed
explicitly so `-m` resolves lib_py from the tree this lib.sh belongs to, which
is what makes a frozen loop run frozen delegation code. start_watchdog survives
as an alias for ensure_subscriber_daemon.
The wrapper and run_loop.sh are untouched; reconcile.sh gains only the
ensure_env_loaded line from the previous commit.
Verified: C-01..C-09 pass against both the legacy and the python bodies, the
daemon dedups and survives its parent, the cli reproduces the legacy failure
line exactly, and publish failure semantics (status synced, seq consumed,
audit records published=false) are identical through the shim and the cli.
tier1+tier2 109 passed; bash -n clean on all six shell files.
