MAM_ONBOARD_WAIT_S (min 1, 600) and MAM_DISPATCH_WAIT_S (min 0, 600) in
test_issue26_ints.INT_KNOBS, which pins every mam_int_knob call. The
real-herdr box's teardown removes its HOME once more after a second:
herdr writes .local/state/herdr/agent-detection a moment after the
server is gone, which left an empty /tmp/mam50-* behind.

Reproduction first (herdr 0.9.3, a real claude, one-off server, job
51ccd800): after a job that left a background subagent running
(`← 1 agent` on screen for 5 min), herdr reported `working` only while
the job ran and `idle` ~10 s after `completed`; a second submit with a
20 s idle wait was injected, not cancelled. The 2026-10-04 observation
(0.9.1, 10+ min of `working`) does not reproduce on 0.9.3, so the herdr
idle wait stays and the registry wait runs before it (plan §4.3 (나)).
- lib_py/delegation/wrapper.py: `open-jobs` (diagnostic) and
`wait-open-jobs`. An open job of the session is live when the #18
contract says so: `running` with an event in events.log within
idle_timeout_sec; `pending` with a dispatch signal (dispatch_wait_at,
else created_at) within ack_timeout_sec. A dead record is reported
(`stale open job <id> ignored (...)`) and never waited for. The waiter
signals every 10 s by merging dispatch_wait_at into its own pending
record through the registry's transition boundary (status untouched, no
event), so later waiters see it alive; a waiter whose wrapper is gone
stops and its signal goes stale (Creator's challenge, job bf8863e1).
Release is FIFO by (created_at, job_id): `clear` when no live running
job remains and this job is the earliest live pending one; `busy <ids>`
at the bound min(MAM_DISPATCH_WAIT_S, remaining wall clock).
- the wrapper: _registry_wait after the preflight in both dispatch paths;
`busy` closes the job as cancelled/session_busy (phase registry_wait),
exit 5 - the existing contract.
- tests/test_issue50_dispatch.py: the open-job table (status x age x
signal x spelling), FIFO and the tie, the signal as a registry merge,
the bound, a dead wrapper, finalize-end's new phase, both call sites.
- tests/test_issue50_dispatch_herdr.py: a real herdr 0.9.3 server per
test (short mkdtemp HOME, fake claude the server reports idle, the real
publish path over the suite's broker): C1 wait-then-run, C2 the bound,
C3 a dead running record, C4 the loop runner's first job behind an
onboarding, C5 a session without a row, C7 two waiters in FIFO order
with no cancellation, C8 a killed waiter skipped once stale; and three
concurrent `create --onboard` / `worktree_prepare.sh --onboard` in one
server (one server process survives the shims' concurrent bootstrap,
so no bootstrap lock is needed).

The handshake only said the agent saw the prompt (#23). create_session.sh
now waits, after `started`, for the onboarding job to reach a terminal
status and makes that its own result, so the orchestrator learns it from
create's exit (MULTI_AGENT_RULES §6) instead of guessing from herdr's
agent_status:
- lib_py/delegation/wrapper.py: `wait-terminal` (completed|error|cancelled,
`timeout` after --timeout, `missing` when the record is gone; stops with
its caller via --watch-pid) and `onboard-exit` (completed 0, error or
cancelled 44, timeout or missing 45). bash branches on the printed answer.
- lib.sh: delegate_wait_terminal / delegate_onboard_exit, thin calls.
- create_session.sh: `onboarding completed: job <id> (<n>s)` on stdout, or
`last_visible_status: onboarding-<status>` on the row, the reason on stderr
and `exit 44` / `exit 45` after `trap - EXIT` - the session is kept, as for
a missing handshake. The "no started" path (error, exit 0 before) now ends
with 44. MAM_ONBOARD_WAIT_S (default 600, floor 1) bounds the wait.
- worktree_prepare.sh: 44/45 pass through with "session and worktree kept".
- create SKILL.md exit table (44, 45) and the knob; the #42 inventory follows.
- tests/conftest.py: --onboard is the default, so ~60 sandbox create tests
reach the new wait. The mock herdr now acts as the agent for create's
onboarding prompt - it runs the publish commands the prompt names through
the real publish_event.py - and MAM_ONBOARD_WAIT_S=3 caps a test that turns
that off (MAM_MOCK_ONBOARD_HANDSHAKE=0 -> 44, `started` -> 45). The
delegate-job wrapper's prompt has another shape and is never answered.
- tests/test_issue50_onboard.py: the decision tables, create in the sandbox
(0 / 44 / 45, session kept, row note, trap window), the knob's integer
rule, worktree_prepare's pass-through.

An agent pane inherits HOME_DIR, CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR and LOCAL_BIN from
lib.sh's exports (and the adapters read CODEX_HOME). DiscoveryContext
prefers CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR over the home_dir a test passes and every
adapter path reads HOME_DIR before HOME, so a suite run by an agent
wrote fake conversation folders into the user's real ~/.claude/projects
(test_adapter_discover, 40 folders on 2026-10-10).
- conftest._isolate_agent_homes (autouse): drops the four pane variables
for every test, so HOME - which the suite's tests set for an isolated
home - governs, as in a plain shell. Dropped rather than pointed into
tmp_path: a fixture-set HOME_DIR would shadow the 11 adapter-contract
tests that set HOME alone, the same way the pane's value did.
- conftest.agent_home_leak_guard (session autouse) + tests/_agent_home_guard.py:
snapshots the entry names of the real claude/agy/codex/grok/opencode/
hermes conversation directories (as the ambient environment names them,
recorded in pytest_configure) and fails on new ones; read-only. A claude
folder whose name decodes (against the file system) to a real directory
outside the temp roots is an operating agent's and is not counted.
- tests/test_issue55_agent_homes.py: the dropped-variable list is pinned
against the env reads of lib_py/agents, lib_py/paths.py and lib.sh;
guard unit tests; the issue's reproduction as a subprocess regression
(on base 42e5173 it leaves <dir>/-…-test-adapter-discover0-ws/u-c1.jsonl).

past argument parsing to mam_acquire_loop_lock on the default marker,
$MAM_REAL_ROOT/.mam/loop-guard-active with MAM_REAL_ROOT = the script's own
checkout. In the main checkout that is the live loop's lock (taken and
released for a moment: a real loop refused, or the test refused); in a review
tree it left an empty .mam. Both now set MAM_LOOP_MARKER under their tmp_path.
A sweep of the 16 modules that use run_loop.sh (a per-test watcher for a new
.mam in the checkout, an empty .mam removed before each test) found only
these two; the others pin MAM_LOOP_MARKER already, end before the lock
(--help, argument errors), or run a copy of the tree.
Tests: test_loop_marker_isolation.py L1 runs every test that reaches the lock
through the checkout's run_loop.sh in a copy of the checkout and requires no
.mam there; W1 of the Issue #17 isolation test now also requires that no .mam
exists (it only looked for files, so the empty lock directory passed it). At

test_v3_rebut_option_parsing_and_budget, whose calls pass no env (review

d198dd5 fixed one helper; the same defect was in eleven more modules
(reviews grok and codex R1/R2): their shells inherited the process
environment, so each `source lib.sh` rewrote <WORKSPACE_ROOT>/.mam/shim/herdr
- the checkout's own when the variable is unset or names this checkout (which
pytest_configure keeps), another workspace's under --noconftest.
- conftest: own_workspace_root, an opt-in fixture setting WORKSPACE_ROOT to
<tmp_path>/.mam-test-state/workspace. Not autouse: runner.py and
mqtt_common read WORKSPACE_ROOT in-process, and some tests unset it on
purpose. mam_sandbox and explicit envs run later and still win.
- pytestmark usefixtures("own_workspace_root") in test_version_consistency,
test_b19_headless_reconcile_fixes, test_b8_send_keys_verification,
test_issue6_fail_closed, test_loop_cli, test_issue5_phase3_loop,
test_issue5_phase4_runtime, test_o3_scoped_guard, test_issue25_plan_reuse,
test_orc_onboard (their shells inherit os.environ, many with no env at all).
- test_orc_onboard (R2): SCRUBBED_ENV is taken at import and no longer
carries WORKSPACE_ROOT; every call builds _scrubbed_env(root) with the root
of the call (ws / cwd / mam_sandbox, else this test's).
- test_workspace_scope (unittest) and test_issue21_worktree_prereqs._mutate
pin the root they already create.
Tests (test_issue17_workspace_root_isolation.py): W1 copies the checkout and
runs one test of each of those modules there with WORKSPACE_ROOT naming the
copy - the copy gets no .mam; W2 imports test_orc_onboard under a sentinel
root, then calls it under another - the sentinel stays empty. At d198dd5 both
fail (the copy gets .mam/shim/herdr; the sentinel gets it).

_env kept an inherited WORKSPACE_ROOT, so every helper that sources the
wrapper (lib.sh's _init_herdr_isolation) rewrote <that workspace>/.mam/shim/
herdr - another workspace's during the PR #51 review (v4.8.7 review, claude).
Only dropping it is not enough: lib.sh then derives the checkout itself, and
conftest keeps a WORKSPACE_ROOT that names this checkout, so the run would
rewrite the checkout's own shim (the real one when this is the main
checkout). _env now sets WORKSPACE_ROOT to the test's tmp dir.
Test: with a sentinel WORKSPACE_ROOT in the environment, _run_both and a
direct _env run leave the sentinel empty and the checkout's shim untouched,
and the shell sees the tmp dir. With the old _env the sentinel gets
.mam/shim/herdr.

subscriber-up and stall-watch answered only by exit code, so a call that
could not run (module error rc 1, missing interpreter 127) read as "no":
with a subscriber that had ended 0, the error path mapped 0 to completed
and the submit ended with 0; a failed stall-watch silently skipped the
watcher.
Both now take --print: the answer is printed as yes/no and the exit code
is 0 for either. The wrapper asks with --print through _decided_yes, so a
nonzero exit, no answer or anything else is _decision_failed (ERROR line,
exit 1). Without --print the rc contract is unchanged (yes 0, no 1).
Tests: subscriber-up (direct and loop/discuss call sites) and stall-watch,
each failing by traceback, rc 127 or no answer with a subscriber that
ended 0, end the submit with 1 and the ERROR line - at 8241bd5 eight of the
nine ended with 0 (the loop/no-answer one ended with 1 through the loop's
own result and failed only on the ERROR line); yes and no keep their

`exit "$(_decide exit-code ...)"` became `exit ""` when wrapper.py could
not answer (its module or $PY broken): rc 255 on bash 3.2. The other printed
decisions failed open in their own ways: a failed wait-rc returned "" (255),
a failed finalize-begin left finalize-end with an empty --final (argparse
rc 2), and a failed sub-status or finalize-end ended under set -e with the
interpreter's own code (1 for a traceback, 127 for one that cannot run).
Printed decisions now go through _decided <var> <subcommand>, and the
exits through _exit_for <status>: a failed call, an empty answer or a
non-numeric exit code / wait rc prints one ERROR line and exits 1. finalize-
end may legitimately answer nothing (its wrapper gone), so only its rc is
checked. The normal path is unchanged: same answers, exit codes and output.
Left as they are: subscriber-up and stall-watch are answered by rc, so a
failure reads as "no" - the subscriber is then treated as dead (the error
path, whose sub-status/exit-code are now fail-closed) and the notify-only
stall watcher is not started.
Tests (F): the real submit (human job, unreachable broker, 3 s budget) with
a $PY that fails one decision - exit-code, sub-status, finalize-begin,
finalize-end; traceback, rc 127 or no answer - ends with 1 and the ERROR
line; the same run without a failure still ends with 3. cmd_wait with a
failing wait-rc ends with 1. A static guard keeps printed decisions off
raw $(...). At 56d0bfd: exit-code 255/255, finalize-begin 2/2, wait-rc
255/255, sub-status and finalize-end 127 for "gone"; the traceback and
no-answer cases there already ended with 1 (by set -e or by the empty
status mapping to 1) and fail only on the missing ERROR line.

With the cwd premise fixed, test_b still failed on herdr 0.9.3: a pane whose
saved directory is gone is restored as a placeholder - `restore_error`
"Saved directory is unavailable...", no process - and `pane process-info`
answers pane_not_found. close_restored_shells raised on it and exited 1
before looking at the other panes, so the resumed session's removed-worktree
pane (the case #45 closes on herdr 0.9.1, where it is a shell in $HOME) was
left behind.
Such a pane has nothing running, so it now meets condition 4. Only that
exact answer counts - restore_error set AND pane_not_found; any other
process-info failure still stops the run with exit 1 as before.

codex, PR #51 round 1. wrapper._sleep computed the span and the remainder
with time.time(). The broker re-observation (up to 3 s) and the disk-heartbeat
grace (1 s) use it, so a wall clock stepped back during the wait stretched it
by the step: on a mocked clock stepped back 10 s, an already completed job was
seen after 11 s / 13 s instead of 1 s / 3 s. The old bash ran `sleep 1` /
`sleep "$left"`, which do not follow the wall clock.
_sleep now measures on time.monotonic(). The deadline (START_TIME + TIMEOUT),
the evidence window and event timestamps stay on the wall clock (_now), as in

kill(pid, 0) succeeds for a zombie. A caller that captures the wrapper's
output and calls communicate() after TERM leaves the wrapper unreaped while
the finalizer holds its pipes, so the owner check passed until the deadline
and the job was still closed (codex, round 2; reproduced with the real
registry). _alive now asks `ps -o stat=` (POSIX, no /proc) once kill(0)
succeeds and treats state Z as gone, as tests/conftest.py::_pid_alive does;
no ps answer keeps kill(0)'s verdict. The owner is looked at every 0.5 s.
Tests: TERM + communicate() with no wait() for both graces (stand-ins) and

finalize-end ran the disk grace and the broker re-observation as a child
of the wrapper; TERM to the wrapper left it running, and at the deadline it
still closed the job and published the error (codex R1, reproduced with the
real registry). The bash loops it replaced ended with the wrapper.
The wrapper now passes its own pid (--watch-pid "$$", as for the stall
watcher). finalize-end checks it every 0.2 s through both waits and before
the close and the event, and leaves without either once it is gone.
A comparison test sends TERM to the old and the new wrapper inside each
grace: both exit at once, leave no process behind and make no call.
Also: no blank line at the end of the old-decisions fixture, and the #42
inventory follows main() one line down.

The wrapper keeps spawn / wait / kill, key injection and the herdr
diagnostic probe; what it decided in bash is now lib_py/delegation/wrapper.py,
reached through one `_decide` helper:
- finalize_unfinished: the clock choice, the disk grace and broker
re-observation, the close request / label, the close and the event
(finalize-begin / finalize-end; bash runs only the busy probe between them)
- start_stall_watch: whether to watch (MAM_STALL_WATCH, remote, human)
- _map_sub_rc, _rc_for (+ MAM_DELEGATE_FAIL_CLOSED), the subscriber
early-exit check and cmd_wait's rc normalisation
- mam_int / mam_int_knob run lib_py/ints.py, which is also the runner's
_positive_int: one implementation of the Issue #26 rule
No behaviour change: tests/test_issue17_item4_decisions.py runs the old
bash functions (copied verbatim from 7209750) and the new wrapper on the
same inputs and compares output, FINAL_JOB_STATUS and the registry /
publish calls. Three static tests that pinned the old bash literals now
pin the Python entry points instead.

codex round 2 (PR #48).
- R1: when `herdr config check` could not run (timeout, OSError), the
merged config was handed to the server as checked. A merge with a schema
error makes herdr drop the whole file, restore back on - the #45 failure.
The merged body is no longer used unchecked: _write_checked falls to the
fixed MINIMAL config with a warning. When the check cannot run on MINIMAL
either, MINIMAL is still used (with its own warning) rather than no
config: returning none would leave restore on, and MINIMAL is a fixed
two-line file the real-herdr test accepts. Unknown non-zero exits stay as
they were - herdr exits non-zero for harmless warnings (an unknown
section) that do not drop the file.
- R2: _shell_in_foreground compared shell_pid and the foreground group with
==, so 0/0, False/False, ""/"" or -1/-1 closed the pane. Both must now be
positive ints (bool excluded) before they are compared.
- R3: the re-parse check used ==, and nan != nan, so a valid TOML nan threw
away every other user setting even on Python 3.11. _same_doc compares
documents recursively with nan equal to nan.
Tests: R1 (timeout, OSError) and R3 (top-level, array, nested nan) in
test_issue45_herdr_config.py; R2 in the new tests/test_issue45_restore_unit.py
(a herdr stub: zero, false, empty, negative, null, string, true, float;
missing info; a real shell closed; a busy pane kept). On the previous code
12 of them fail. Python 3.11: 67 passed; Python 3.9: 33 passed / 34 skipped
(tomllib-only). Real-herdr restore tests and related files on 3.9: 197
passed / 1 skipped.

claude round 1, B2 and B3 (B1 was the previous commit).
- B2, tests/test_issue45_restore.py: the throwaway root is resolved, because
on macOS /tmp links to /private/tmp and herdr reports real paths (two B
tests compared /tmp/... with /private/tmp/...). The server's environment
is read from /proc on Linux and from `ps -E` elsewhere (macOS has no /proc;
two A tests failed with FileNotFoundError).
- B3, tests/test_issue9_server_env.py: the bootstrap builds the config with
the python3 on PATH, which here is 3.9 without tomllib, so the test's
merged-settings expectation could not hold and its own `import tomllib`
failed. The test now parses the result with that same python3; when it
has no tomllib, it expects the key-only config and the bootstrap's
"no tomllib" warning instead.
macOS, Python 3.9 venv: test_issue45_restore, test_issue9_server_env and
test_issue45_herdr_config 42 passed / 29 skipped (the tomllib-only checks).

tests/test_issue45_herdr_config.py imported tomllib at module level. On
Python 3.9 - macOS's /usr/bin/python3, which the venvs and the bootstrap's
python3 use here - the import failed during collection and pytest ran no
test of the whole suite.
The import is optional now, and the 29 tests that parse a result with
tomllib or expect the user's settings kept are marked needs_tomllib: on
Python < 3.11 herdr_config deliberately writes the key-only config (restore
still off, the other settings dropped, a warning on stderr), which
test_without_tomllib_restore_is_still_off covers on every Python.
Python 3.9: 22 passed / 29 skipped; Python 3.11: 51 passed.
create SKILL.md (same line, so the #42 inventory is unchanged) and the
4.8.5 entry state that building the server config needs tomllib (Python
3.11+) in the python3 on PATH, and what an older python3 loses. Checked
with Python 3.9 in a throwaway HOME: the warning reaches stderr (the
bootstrap captures only stdout) and the user's file is untouched.

The fallback wrote <.mam>/herdr-server-config.toml unchecked, so it could
replace a foreign file there, the source itself, or a link to it. It now goes
through output_path like the normal path (source identity incl. aliases,
generated-for-this-source ownership, then a per-source name) and writes
nothing when no name is safe.

R1: tomllib accepting a file is not herdr accepting it (a schema error makes
herdr drop the whole file, restore included). The shim passes REAL_HERDR and
the written file must pass `herdr config check` ("parse error"/"using defaults"
reject; unknown keys and sound-file notices do not), else the key-only file is
written and checked. A non-table `session` and a source that is not UTF-8 reach
that fallback instead of raising.
R2: the line edit is replaced by parse -> set -> serialize; the result must
parse back to the source plus the key, so dotted keys and inline tables keep
the user's other settings.
R3: the output is never the source (aliases included) nor a file not generated
for the same source; then a per-source name beside it.

Issue #45 A+B: MAM's isolated herdr servers start with restore-on-restart off,
and resume closes the session's own restored empty shell. Not reviewed yet.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The shim runs a bare python3. Before 3.11 the module failed to import and the
server started with restore on; now it gets the key alone, with a warning.

After a restart with restore off, the session's saved pane comes back as an
empty shell (in $HOME when its directory is gone) holding the agent_session it
reported. A resume with a CP_PREFIX cannot reuse it, so it stayed next to the
new pane. Just before spawning, resume closes panes whose agent_session is the
id being resumed, with no live agent and only the shell in the foreground; the
registry is not consulted, since a session whose server died stays running.
tests/test_issue45_restore.py drives a real herdr server under a throwaway HOME
and session with a fake claude: restore stays off through the MAM bootstrap
(with a restore-on control), the close conditions, and create -> crash ->
resume leaving one pane.

S11 keeps the generated .mam/shim/herdr from changing by accident; #45 changes
it on purpose, so its base moves to ed73f67.

The headless bootstrap regenerates the server config on every start and hands
it to the server as HERDR_CONFIG_PATH. Without a file the server still starts,
with a warning. mam_sandbox unsets HERDR_CONFIG_PATH/XDG_CONFIG_HOME so the
file lands in the sandbox HOME.

lib_py/herdr_config.py builds the user's herdr config (HERDR_CONFIG_PATH, else
XDG_CONFIG_HOME, else ~/.config, as herdr reads it) with only
[session] resume_agents_on_restore forced to false, written next to the source
so relative paths resolve the same. The text merge is re-parsed; a merge that
does not leave the rest equal falls back to the key alone, since herdr drops a
config that does not parse and would restore again.

The .claude/skills check accepts both local layouts and fails on a dangling
link. Review: round 1 (@e1ed270) claude agy grok PASS, codex NOT PASS (a
dangling top-level link was skipped); fixed in 150b493; round 2 4/4 PASS.
Reports and the round-2 identity sidecars go to .agents/reports/<session>/.

Path.exists() follows the link, so a dangling top-level .claude/skills read
as "absent" and the test skipped: every skill's load path could be broken
with the suite still green (codex R1 on PR #47; the exists() branch predates
this PR).
The check moves into claude_skills_problems(link, skills_dir, names):
absence is "neither exists nor is a symlink"; a symlink must resolve to
.agents/skills; a directory must hold each skill resolving to the matching
.agents/skills/<skill>. test_claude_skills_layouts runs it on synthetic
layouts (absent, single link, per-skill links, a link to the wrong skill, a
dangling top-level link, a dangling per-skill link), so it is exercised in
a worktree too. Replaying the review's probe (a dangling .claude/skills in
the tree) now fails; the main checkout's per-skill layout reports nothing.
