Two review notes.
The launcher allocation became a required field of HelloResult.limits
with no negative fixture behind it. Three rows now cover it: missing,
above maxWorkerThreads, and zero. Both readers reject all three, and no
derived fixture moved, because invalid.json is not one of them.
The resolution's two bounds disagreed. 512 attempts at a 2 ms pause
give up near 1.5 s, so the attempt count silently pre-empted the 8 s
budget the doc comment advertised. The budget is now the working limit
and says so: the guard is 8192 attempts, over sixteen seconds of pauses
against an eight-second budget, so at the default values the budget is
always what fires. Which one did is no longer arithmetic either --
ResolutionEnd records it, the failure message names the bound and its
size, and the code, the doc comment and the README all state the same
numbers. a_resolution_says_which_of_its_two_bounds_ended_it drives each
bound to the end in every execution mode.
Review fixes for SESSION-02.
An expired caller deadline was becoming a failed epoch without the
ipc-v1 section 6 resolution. That procedure existed and was correct and
had exactly one caller, a test injection, so the deadline this slice
introduced bypassed it and a merely slow participant lost its epoch.
Deadlines is now the two-stage shape section 6 describes -- a probe,
then a bounded resolve budget and attempt count -- call_owned returns a
typed CallOutcome so an expiry is distinguishable from a refusal, and
Prepare, Commit, Advance and the lifecycle calls all query the same
request id against the same incarnation before the epoch can fail. This
is also step-v1 section 7's Advance row, which was imperative about it.
The coordinator peak-RSS column was measuring the measuring process.
VmHWM never falls and every row shared one process, so the column was
cumulative and the mode ranking reversed when the rows were reordered.
Each row now runs in a measure-row child of its own. The corrected
numbers say the opposite of what the first report claimed: the
coordinator's own peak is roughly flat across the modes and lowest in
process mode, and the cost of the split is the children.
workers-v1 section 2 bounded Agent.Initialize's workerThreads by
"within launcher allocation" and named no wire for it. Dated amendment:
HelloResult.limits gains workerThreads, the worker reports what its
launcher gave it, and the launcher refuses one that disagrees. The
schema set, the shared fixtures and the TypeScript package move
together; contractDigest changes, which ipc-v1 section 4 provides for.
Also: the stale-epoch row now reaches the stale-epoch path against a
live agent process and asserts exact codes on both halves; the
router-restart row asserts the handle drop it claimed; frames are
counted from the behaviour trace instead of calculated; the README says
which suites run over which transports; bootstrap is fence-guarded; the
shutdown reason is an Id rather than a silent fallback; and
agent_mutations returns None rather than zero where the counter lives
in another process.
SESSION-02: one agent process per fly and one environment process under
the coordinator over the Unix-socket transport, compared against the
in-process composition and a dedicated-thread variant. The mode is the
only thing that changes; the composition, the coordinator, the workers
and the router are the same code in all three.
The launcher is the configured supervisor. It owns a total thread budget
with one allocation per participant, refused as BUSY before anything
starts when the total cannot cover it; the configured client, service,
worker and port identities, proved in Worker.Hello before the
coordinator pins a registration; Worker.Status health on the
supervisor's own monotonic clock at the ipc-v1 section 6 budgets; and
reaping, where Worker.Shutdown is the request and the operating system
is the guarantee.
The worker executable is a subcommand of this crate's one binary, which
is what implementation.md section 2 allows in place of a separate
worker crate.
The coordinator's fault behaviour: every failure names the participant
it is attributed to, every domain call has a caller-side deadline so a
dead participant is a diagnosed outcome rather than a hang, and failing
fences the epoch -- the boundary stops, the handles drop, and no further
transition or publication is allowed. Agent.Initialize now carries the
launcher's allocation, and an agent refuses one asking for more.
tests/processes.rs proves every acceptance bullet once per execution
mode, and the two section 4 rows SESSION-01 could not reach in one
process: a router restart during a world advance, and an old worker's
reply after a restart. measure compares the three modes at one, two and
four agents; its table is in the crate README, and it is not a capacity
claim.
