- admission: a `submit --dry-run` record is marked dry_run and is not an
open job of its session (review 1e25cf2f F1)
- create: the monitor-row adoption requires the row's server to be the one
this create spawned on (review 1e25cf2f F2)
- pane lock: retry only on contention (BlockingIOError); the docs say the
flock lasts while any fd-9 holder (the claim shell and the shim) lives
(review 66680d9d)
- tests on macOS: real-herdr box HOMEs under /tmp (sun_path is 104 bytes),
resolved paths, the fake claude reads non-canonical input (MAX_CANON 1024)
and the pane is read unwrapped; lock holders exec their sleep so killing
them frees the lock; the adoption tests name the server

Three `create --onboard` at once into one folder (the control root, so no
control-plane prefix reaches the pane and the shim reuses an idle pane):
the shim's new-session chooses a pane - an idle one in a workspace on the
same cwd, a split, a fresh workspace's root pane - and then claims it with
`agent start`; two shims could choose the pane one of them had just made,
and the later start failed with agent_pane_busy (one create in three).
mam_herdr now runs every new-session call holding one lock per server: a
flock on fd 9, opened for the block and taken by lib_py.pane_lock, which
also bounds the wait (MAM_PANE_CLAIM_WAIT_S, default 120). It is released
with the block or with the process, however it ends. The shim heredoc is
unchanged (S11). Other servers' creates are not held.
Serialising the claims exposed a second race: a create's end-of-run
`reconcile.sh --once` adopted the pane of another create that had not yet
written its row, and that create refused its own name as already running
(exit 4). Such a row - registered by the monitor, no job, for a pane
created after this create began - is now replaced, not refused.
Tests: real herdr - shim-level and create-level three-way races into one
folder (the real herdr's pane-creating replies held back so the window is
hit on every run; both fail on the base with the orchestrator's error),
the different-folder test kept; pane_lock unit tests (per-server file,
timeout, kill -9 holder, handover, knob); the adoption rule and its three
refusals; shim contract h26 (held lock: no pane calls). The herdr box gets
a ~/.zshrc: without it every first `agent start` typed into zsh's first-run
menu and timed out at 30 s.

Review N1 (planner-reviewer-claude-01 50ae9fb0, planner-reviewer-codex-01
8779f4b4): af8a54c (R1) stopped reusing an idle pane when env flags are
present, because the old path put `env K=V ...` after `herdr agent start ...
--`, where herdr passes it to the agent executable as arguments. h25 still
required that old behaviour (idle pane reused, env in the agent command) and
failed. It now asserts the new contract instead: a pane split / workspace
create carries MY_TEST_FLAG=active and HERDR_WORKSPACE_ID as --env, the agent
does not land on the idle pane, and nothing env-like follows `--` in agent
start. Finding A's intent (env must not be silently lost) is kept; reuse
without env flags stays pinned by h24. No product code changes.

- Replace 'nohup ... server & disown' with portable Python 'Popen(..., start_new_session=True)' in lib.sh shim generator
- Isolate headless herdr server in its own SID/PGID to protect against parent process-group signal broadcast (SIGTERM/SIGINT)
- Add regression test test_h26_daemon_spawn_uses_process_group_detachment to verify child PGID detachment (Closes#3 Item 1)
- Add test_r2 and test_r3 for bare-kind fallback restriction and R-1 exact-match enforcement
- Add test_h24 and test_h25 for idle-pane reuse and env_flags preservation
