Race Loader startup with the process abort signal so SIGINT and SIGTERM can settle the one-shot CLI even when initialization has not returned a Context.
If boot settles after cancellation, dispose the late context asynchronously instead of recreating the wait. Contain late boot rejection and report a late disposal failure on stderr.
Cover prompt interruption, late context disposal, late boot rejection, and cleanup failure with focused CLI regressions.
The slow-binding test used a 250 ms compute budget, which is below the instrumented worker startup cost seen intermittently in the four-worker Windows coverage job. That startup activity could exhaust the budget before the program settled into the awaited binding, making the timing assertion depend on runner load.
Use a one-second compute budget and a two-second binding delay. The awaited wall time still exceeds the busy-time allowance by a clear factor, so the test continues to prove that binding wait time is not charged while leaving enough headroom for worker initialization under coverage.
The existing /opt footer case reaches the ordinary outside-home return on POSIX, but Windows resolves it on the checkout drive while the user profile is on another drive. That exercises the cross-drive guard instead and leaves the same-volume fallback uncovered in Windows coverage.
Add the resolved parent of the home directory as a platform-neutral outside-home path. The case now covers the fallback on every host while retaining /opt to exercise the Windows cross-drive path, restoring per-file branch, statement, and line coverage without platform-specific expectations.
Pass each resolved catalog model capacity into pi-ai stream conversion so the upstream full-message classifier can recognize provider-specific, silent, and length-stop overflow signals. Retain the harness text fallback for legacy provider wording and cover the catalog-resolution path with a mock-provider regression.
Windows does not guarantee that an ordinary child process will continue after its parent exits. The fake ACP agent exited immediately after spawning its late-output descendant, so Windows could tear down that descendant and close the protocol stream before the delayed ACP update was written.
Launch the descendant in detached mode while continuing to inherit stdout and stderr, then unref it as before. This preserves the intended regression boundary: launcher shutdown must wait for descendant-held stdio and parse the final buffered frame after the direct ACP parent exits.
Drive the shutdown path where the requested signal reports a child error without exiting, the bounded marker grace expires, and fallback SIGKILL is accepted.
Assert that both signals are attempted and that close drains the successful fallback exit before preserving the original child error, restoring per-file 100% branch and line coverage for the launcher.
Update the bilingual pairing checksum after the English and Chinese Windows DACL RFCs were revised together to describe semantic ACE-policy comparison.
This restores the repository's recorded translation-consistency contract without changing either document's content.
Use Node's explicit inherit stdio mode for the fake descendant instead of passing the parent process stream objects as child descriptors.
This keeps the grandchild's stdout and stderr handles open across the fake ACP parent's exit on Windows, so launcher shutdown must drain the late buffered update and stderr bytes just as it does on POSIX.
A successful Windows termination request can end the process before Node publishes exitCode or signalCode. If a child error wins the shutdown race, give that accepted exit a bounded observation window before escalating or reporting fallback refusal.
Cover a delayed real exit edge, preserve prompt refusal behavior for a genuinely live child, and document the launcher grace without weakening the complete stdio and parser drain boundary.
Refresh PR #380 against master at ab96fdb63 immediately before landing so the admin merge is evaluated against the current repository contracts rather than the branch's earlier base.
Take the merged SQLite owner-only permission hardening and its regenerated config catalog while preserving the examples/repl-agent rename. The merge leaves examples/coding-agent absent and keeps demo:repl wired to the renamed leaf.
ReplaceFileW preserves ACLs by merging security information, which may reserialize auto-inheritance state and duplicate equivalent ACEs. Compare the final ordered, de-duplicated ACE policy instead of requiring byte-identical self-relative descriptor buffers.
Update the host-independent binding assertion to expect the namespaced absolute paths that the Win32 boundary actually receives, and align the package and bilingual RFC contracts with the semantic DACL guarantee.
Treat an absolute path.relative() result as a cross-volume path instead of incorrectly abbreviating it beneath the user's home directory.
Allow embeddings to project a logical footer cwd without changing the operational session cwd. The recorded-session harness now uses a POSIX-shaped display alias for both the footer and filesystem result paths, preserving the existing pre-normalization layout width on every host.
Keep runtime-provided labels behind terminal-control escaping, cover that boundary, and document the embedding contract.
Bring the follow-up branch onto master after PR #379 landed so the rename is reviewed and validated against the current generated Cordis catalog and JSDoc completeness contract.
The histories merge without a content conflict: master's catalog generator changes remain intact, while the repl-agent move continues to own only example paths, front-door naming, and their documentation derivatives.
Name the runnable leaf for the line-oriented front door it owns, matching the existing tui-agent and acp-agent organization. Move the complete config, Code Mode overlay, tests, metadata, and generated composition graph together, then update every loader path and repository reference.
Keep the shared model identity independent of its terminal front door by phrasing the persona as a coding-agent role rather than retaining the retired leaf name. Regenerate graph and tool catalogs and re-record each affected bilingual pair so derived documentation cannot point at the removed path.
