Subject: [PATCH 02/26] Reorganize `.gitignore` by skill/purpose

Group `.claude/` ignores per-skill instead of a
flat list: `ai.skillz` symlinks, `/open-wkt`,
`/code-review-changes`, `/pr-msg`, `/commit-msg`.
Add missing symlink entries (`yt-url-lookup` ->
`resolve-conflicts`, `inter-skill-review`). Drop
stale `Claude worktrees` section (already covered
by `.claude/wkts/`).

Subject: [PATCH 03/26] Add `lastfailed` cache inspection to `/run-tests` skill
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

New "Inspect last failures" section reads the pytest
`lastfailed` cache JSON directly — instant, no
collection overhead, and filters to `tests/`-prefixed
entries to avoid stale junk paths.

Also,
- add `jq` tool permission for `.pytest_cache/` files

+
+**Why not `--cache-show` or `--co --lf`?**
+
+- `pytest --cache-show 'cache/lastfailed'` works
+  but dumps raw dict repr including junk entries
+  (stale system paths that leak into the cache).
+- `pytest --co --lf` actually *collects* tests which
+  triggers import resolution and is slow (~0.5s+).
+  Worse, when cached node IDs don't exactly match
+  current parametrize IDs (e.g. param names changed
+  between runs), pytest falls back to collecting
+  the *entire file*, giving false positives.
+- Reading the JSON directly is instant, filterable
+  to `tests/`-prefixed entries, and shows exactly
+  what pytest recorded — no interpretation.
+
+**After inspecting**, re-run the failures:
 ```sh
 python -m pytest --lf -x --tb=short --no-header
 ```

Subject: [PATCH 04/26] Expand `/run-tests` venv pre-flight to cover all cases

Rework section 3 from a worktree-only check into a
structured 3-step flow: detect active venv, interpret
results (Case A: active, B: none, C: worktree), then
run import + collection checks.

Deats,
- Case B prompts via `AskUserQuestion` when no venv
  is detected, offering `uv sync` or manual activate
- add `uv run` fallback section for envs where venv
  activation isn't practical
- new allowed-tools: `uv run python`, `uv run pytest`,
  `uv pip show`, `AskUserQuestion`

-## 3. Pre-flight checks (before running tests)
+## 3. Pre-flight: venv detection (MANDATORY)
+
+**Always verify a `uv` venv is active before running
+`python` or `pytest`.** This project uses
+`UV_PROJECT_ENVIRONMENT=py<MINOR>` naming (e.g.
+`py313`) — never `.venv`.
+
+### Step 1: detect active venv
+
+Run this check first:
+
+```sh
+python -c "
+import sys, os
+venv = os.environ.get('VIRTUAL_ENV', '')
+prefix = sys.prefix
+print(f'VIRTUAL_ENV={venv}')
+print(f'sys.prefix={prefix}')
+print(f'executable={sys.executable}')
+"
+```
+
+### Step 2: interpret results
+
+**Case A — venv is active** (`VIRTUAL_ENV` is set
+and points to a `py<MINOR>/` dir under the project
+root or worktree):
 
-### Worktree venv detection
+Use bare `python` / `python -m pytest` for all
+commands. This is the normal, fast path.
 
-If running inside a git worktree (`git rev-parse
---git-common-dir` differs from `--git-dir`), verify
-the Python being used is from the **worktree's own
-venv**, not the main repo's. Check:
+**Case B — no venv active** (`VIRTUAL_ENV` is empty
+or `sys.prefix` points to a system Python):
+
+Use `AskUserQuestion` to ask the user:
+
+> "No uv venv is active. Should I activate one
+> via `UV_PROJECT_ENVIRONMENT=py<MINOR> uv sync`,
+> or would you prefer to activate your shell venv
+> first?"
+
+Options:
+1. **"Create/sync venv"** — run
+   `UV_PROJECT_ENVIRONMENT=py<MINOR> uv sync` where
+   `<MINOR>` is detected from `python --version`
+   (e.g. `313` for 3.13). Then use
+   `py<MINOR>/bin/python` for all subsequent
+   commands in this session.
+2. **"I'll activate it myself"** — stop and let the
+   user `source py<MINOR>/bin/activate` or similar.
+
+**Case C — inside a git worktree** (`git rev-parse
+--git-common-dir` differs from `--git-dir`):
+
+Verify Python resolves from the **worktree's own
+venv**, not the main repo's:
 
 ```sh
 python -c "import tractor; print(tractor.__file__)"
 ```
 
-If the path points outside the worktree (e.g. to
-the main repo), set up a local venv first:
+If the path points outside the worktree, create a
+worktree-local venv:
 
 ```sh
 UV_PROJECT_ENVIRONMENT=py<MINOR> uv sync
 ```
 
-where `<MINOR>` matches the active cpython minor
-version (detect via `python --version`, e.g.
-`py313` for 3.13, `py314` for 3.14). Then use
-`py<MINOR>/bin/python` for all subsequent commands.
+Then use `py<MINOR>/bin/python` for all commands.
+
+**Why this matters**: without the correct venv,
+subprocesses spawned by tractor resolve modules
+from the wrong editable install, causing spurious
+`AttributeError` / `ModuleNotFoundError`.
+
+### Fallback: `uv run`
+
+If the user can't or won't activate a venv, all
+`python` and `pytest` commands can be prefixed
+with `UV_PROJECT_ENVIRONMENT=py<MINOR> uv run`:
+
+```sh
+# instead of: python -m pytest tests/ -x
+UV_PROJECT_ENVIRONMENT=py313 uv run pytest tests/ -x
+
+# instead of: python -c 'import tractor'
+UV_PROJECT_ENVIRONMENT=py313 uv run python -c 'import tractor'
+```
 
-**Why this matters**: without a worktree-local venv,
-subprocesses spawned by tractor resolve modules from
-the main repo's editable install, causing spurious
-`AttributeError` / `ModuleNotFoundError` for code
-that only exists on the worktree's branch.
+`uv run` auto-discovers the project and venv,
+but is slower than a pre-activated venv due to
+lock-file resolution on each invocation. Prefer
+activating the venv when possible.
 
-### Import + collection checks
+### Step 3: import + collection checks
 
-Always run these, especially after refactors or
-module moves — they catch import errors instantly:
+After venv is confirmed, always run these
+(especially after refactors or module moves):
 
 ```sh
 # 1. package import smoke check

Subject: [PATCH 07/26] Add `'subint'` spawn backend scaffold (#379)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Land the scaffolding for a future sub-interpreter (PEP 734
`concurrent.interpreters`) actor spawn backend per issue #379. The
spawn flow itself is not yet implemented; `subint_proc()` raises a
placeholder `NotImplementedError` pointing at the tracking issue —
this commit only wires up the registry, the py-version gate, and
the harness.

Deats,
- bump `pyproject.toml` `requires-python` to `>=3.12, <3.15` and
  list the `3.14` classifier — the new stdlib
  `concurrent.interpreters` module only ships on 3.14
- extend `SpawnMethodKey = Literal[..., 'subint']`
- `try_set_start_method('subint')` grows a new `match` arm that
  feature-detects the stdlib module and raises `RuntimeError` with
  a clear banner on py<3.14
- `_methods` registers the new `subint_proc()` via the same
  bottom-of-module late-import pattern used for `._trio` / `._mp`

Also,
- new `tractor/spawn/_subint.py` — top-level `try: from concurrent
  import interpreters` guards `_has_subints: bool`; `subint_proc()`
  signature mirrors `trio_proc`/`mp_proc` so the Phase B.2 impl can
  drop in without touching the registry
- re-add `import sys` to `_spawn.py` (needed for the py-version msg
  in the gate-error)
- `_testing.pytest.pytest_configure` wraps `try_set_start_method()`
  in a `pytest.UsageError` handler so `--spawn-backend=subint` on
  py<3.14 prints a clean banner instead of a traceback

(this patch was generated in some part by [`claude-code`][claude-code-gh])

Subject: [PATCH 08/26] Handle py3.14+ incompats as test skips

Since we're devving subints we require the 3.14+ stdlib API
and a couple compiled libs don't support it yet, namely:
- `cffi`, which we're only using for the `.ipc._linux` eventfd
  stuff (now factored into `hotbaud` anyway).
- `greenback`, which requires `greenlet` which doesn't seem to be
  wheeled yet
  * on nixos the sdist build was failing due to lack of `g++` which
    i don't care to figure out rn since we don't need `.devx` stuff
    immediately for this subints prototype.
  * [ ] we still need to adjust any dependent suites to skip.

Adjust `test_ringbuf` to skip on import failure.

Also project wide,
- pin us to py 3.13+ in prep for last-2-minor-version policy.
- drop `msgspec>=0.20.0`, the first release with py3.14 support.

Subject: [PATCH 09/26] Impl min-viable `subint` spawn backend (B.2)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Replace the B.1 scaffold stub w/ a working spawn
flow driving PEP 734 sub-interpreters on dedicated
OS threads.

Deats,
- use private `_interpreters` C mod (not the public
  `concurrent.interpreters` API) to get `'legacy'`
  subint config — avoids PEP 684 C-ext compat
  issues w/ `msgspec` and other deps missing the
  `Py_mod_multiple_interpreters` slot
- bootstrap subint via code-string calling new
  `_actor_child_main()` from `_child.py` (shared
  entry for both CLI and subint backends)
- drive subint lifetime on an OS thread using
  `trio.to_thread.run_sync(_interpreters.exec, ..)`
- full supervision lifecycle mirrors `trio_proc`:
  `ipc_server.wait_for_peer()` → send `SpawnSpec`
  → yield `Portal` via `task_status.started()`
- graceful shutdown awaits the subint's inner
  `trio.run()` completing; cancel path sends
  `portal.cancel_actor()` then waits for thread
  join before `_interpreters.destroy()`

Also,
- extract `_actor_child_main()` from `_child.py`
  `__main__` block as callable entry shape bc the
  subint needs it for code-string bootstrap
- add `"subint"` to the `_runtime.py` spawn-method
  check so child accepts `SpawnSpec` over IPC

+## Prompt
+
+Continuing the Phase B work from the design sessions
+logged in `20260417T034918Z_9703210_prompt_io.md` and
+the Phase A impl in `20260417T035800Z_61a73ba_...`.
+
+User direction at this step:
+- "ok now let's continue with the subints part of the
+  plan ya?" → kick off Phase B.
+- After I proposed a 4-sub-phase breakdown (B.1
+  scaffolding, B.2 min-viable spawn, B.3 lifecycle,
+  B.4 test enablement), user: "ok can we continue
+  with B" → approving the phasing and design
+  defaults (thread-per-subint, UDS default,
+  code-string bootstrap via `interp.exec()`).
+- User switched the worktree to
+  `subint_spawner_backend` (instead of opening a
+  fresh worktree as I'd proposed): "i already
+  switched branches in the wkt, you should work off
+  `subint_spawner_backend` now".
+
+Scope of this turn: **B.1 scaffolding only** —
+wire the `'subint'` name through the spawn-method
+registry + harness, add a feature-detected stub
+module, bump pyproject. No actual spawn flow.
+
+## Response summary
+
+Produced the Phase B.1 scaffolding patch, landed as
+commit `5cd6df58` (subject: `Add `'subint'` spawn
+backend scaffold (#379)`). Four files changed,
++124 / -2 lines.
+
+Key pieces (all generated by claude, reviewed by
+human before commit):
+- `tractor/spawn/_subint.py` — **new**; feature-
+  detects `concurrent.interpreters`; `subint_proc()`
+  stub raises `RuntimeError` on py<3.14 or
+  `NotImplementedError` with issue-#379 URL on
+  py≥3.14. Signature mirrors `trio_proc`/`mp_proc`
+  so B.2 can drop the impl in without touching
+  `_methods`.
+- `tractor/spawn/_spawn.py` — adds `'subint'` to
+  `SpawnMethodKey`, grows a `case 'subint'` arm in
+  `try_set_start_method()` with feature-gate, re-
+  imports `sys` for the gate-error msg, adds late
+  `from ._subint import subint_proc` import and
+  `_methods` entry.
+- `tractor/_testing/pytest.py` — converts the
+  gate-error into `pytest.UsageError` via a
+  `try/except` around `try_set_start_method()` so
+  `--spawn-backend=subint` on py<3.14 prints a
+  clean banner instead of a traceback.
+- `pyproject.toml` — pin `requires-python` `<3.14`
+  → `<3.15`, add `3.14` trove classifier.

+
+Validation on py3.13:
+- registry/gate probe — OK; `_has_subints = False`,
+  `subint_proc()` raises `RuntimeError` as expected.
+- `try_set_start_method('subint')` — raises cleanly.
+- `pytest --spawn-backend=subint` — exits with
+  `pytest.UsageError` banner.
+- Spawn-relevant test subset — 69 passed, 1 skipped.
+- Full suite on py3.13 deferred (scaffolding is
+  no-op on <3.14).
+- Full-suite on py3.14 pending user setting up the
+  venv.
+
+## Human edits
+
+None — committed as generated by claude. `uv.lock`

+bump regenerated cp314 wheel entries but they were
+deferred to a follow-up).

+## Per-file generated content
+
+### `tractor/spawn/_subint.py` (new, 100 lines)
+
+> `git diff 5cd6df5~1..5cd6df5 -- tractor/spawn/_subint.py`
+
+New scaffolding module for the PEP 734 subinterpreter
+backend. Contents:
+- AGPL header + module docstring (describes backend
+  intent, 3.14+ availability gate, and explicit
+  "SCAFFOLDING STUB" status pointing at issue #379).
+- Top-level `try/except ImportError` wrapping
+  `from concurrent import interpreters as
+  _interpreters` → sets module-global
+  `_has_subints: bool`. This lets the registry stay
+  introspectable on py<3.14 while spawn-time still
+  fails cleanly.
+- `subint_proc()` coroutine with signature matching
+  `trio_proc`/`mp_proc` exactly (same param names,
+  defaults, and `TaskStatus[Portal]` typing) —
+  intentional so Phase B.2 can drop the impl in
+  without touching `_methods` or changing call-site
+  binding.
+- Body raises `RuntimeError` on py<3.14 (with
+  `sys.version` printed) or `NotImplementedError`
+  with issue-#379 URL on py≥3.14.
+
+### `tractor/spawn/_spawn.py` (modified, +15 LOC)
+
+> `git diff 5cd6df5~1..5cd6df5 -- tractor/spawn/_spawn.py`
+
+- `import sys` re-added (pruned during Phase A, now
+  needed again for the py-version string in the
+  `'subint'` gate-error).
+- `SpawnMethodKey = Literal[...]` grows `'subint'` as
+  the 4th member, with inline comment `# py3.14+ via
+  `concurrent.interpreters` (PEP 734)`.
+- `try_set_start_method()` match-block grows a new
+  `case 'subint':` arm that imports
+  `from ._subint import _has_subints` lazily and
+  raises `RuntimeError` with a multi-line gate msg
+  if unavailable.
+- Bottom-of-module late-import section grows
+  `from ._subint import subint_proc` alongside the
+  existing `_trio` / `_mp` imports.
+- `_methods` dict grows `'subint': subint_proc`.
+
+### `tractor/_testing/pytest.py` (modified, +8 LOC)
+
+> `git diff 5cd6df5~1..5cd6df5 -- tractor/_testing/pytest.py`
+
+`pytest_configure()` wraps the
+`try_set_start_method(backend)` call in a
+`try/except RuntimeError` that re-raises as
+`pytest.UsageError(str(err))`. Rationale: the gate
+error on py<3.14 is legitimately a configuration
+problem, not a test failure, so pytest's UsageError
+path (exit code 4) gives a clean single-line banner
+instead of a traceback.
+
+### `pyproject.toml` (modified, +2 / -1)
+
+> `git diff 5cd6df5~1..5cd6df5 -- pyproject.toml`
+
+- `requires-python` pin relaxed `>=3.12, <3.14` →
+  `>=3.12, <3.15` to admit 3.14 as a valid target.
+- Added `"Programming Language :: Python :: 3.14"`
+  to the trove classifiers.
+
+## Non-code output (verbatim)
+
+### Design choices captured in the prior turn
+
+(Previously confirmed by the user on April 17 in this
+session — relevant excerpts captured here for
+provenance since they drove the shape of the impl):
+
+1. **Python pin**: `<3.15` + feature-gate the subint
+   backend at spawn time — user answered option (a)
+   from the design triage.
+2. **Deferred `fork()`-via-subint hack** from issue
+   #379's "Our own thoughts" section.
+3. **Phase B phasing**: user approved the B.1 / B.2 /
+   B.3 / B.4 breakdown — this commit is strictly B.1
+   (scaffolding only, no spawn-flow impl).
+4. **Option (B) worktree strategy**: new worktree
+   branched from `wkt/spawn_modularize`. *(Amended by
+   user at runtime: user switched the existing
+   `spawn_modularize` worktree to the
+   `subint_spawner_backend` branch instead.)*
+
+### Sanity-check output (verbatim terminal excerpts)
+
+Registry / feature-gate verification on py3.13:
+```
+SpawnMethodKey values: ('trio', 'mp_spawn',
+                       'mp_forkserver', 'subint')
+_methods keys: ['trio', 'mp_spawn',
+                'mp_forkserver', 'subint']
+_has_subints: False (py version: (3, 13) )
+[expected] RuntimeError: The 'subint' spawn backend
+requires Python 3.14+ (stdlib
+`concurrent.interpreters`, PEP 734).
+```
+
+`try_set_start_method('subint')` gate on py3.13:
+```
+[expected] RuntimeError: Spawn method 'subint'
+requires Python 3.14+ (stdlib
+`concurrent.interpreters`, PEP 734).
+```
+
+Pytest `--spawn-backend=subint` on py3.13 (the new
+UsageError wrapper kicking in):
+```
+ERROR: Spawn method 'subint' requires Python 3.14+
+(stdlib `concurrent.interpreters`, PEP 734).
+Current runtime: 3.13.11 (main, Dec  5 2025,
+16:06:33) [GCC 15.2.0]
+```
+
+Collection probe: `404 tests collected in 0.18s`
+(no import errors from the new module).
+
+Spawn-relevant test subset (`tests/test_local.py
+test_rpc.py test_spawning.py test_multi_program.py
+tests/discovery/`):
+```
+69 passed, 1 skipped, 10 warnings in 61.38s
+```
+
+Full suite was **not** run on py3.13 for this commit
+— the scaffolding is no-op on <3.14 and full-suite
+validation under py3.14 is pending that venv being
+set up by the user.
+
+### Commit message
+
+Also AI-drafted (via `/commit-msg`, with the prose
+rewrapped through `/home/goodboy/.claude/skills/pr-msg/
+scripts/rewrap.py --width 67`) — the 33-line message
+on commit `5cd6df58` itself. Not reproduced here; see
+`git log -1 5cd6df58`.
+
+### Known follow-ups flagged to user
+
+- **`uv.lock` deferred**: pin-bump regenerated cp314
+  wheel entries in `uv.lock`, but the user chose to
+  not stage `uv.lock` for this commit. Warned
+  explicitly.
+- **Phase B.2 needs py3.14 venv** — running the
+  actual subint impl requires it; user said they'd
+  set it up separately.

Subject: [PATCH 11/26] Doc the `_interpreters` private-API choice in `_subint`

Expand the comment block above the `_interpreters`
import explaining *why* we use the private C mod
over `concurrent.interpreters`: the public API only
exposes PEP 734's `'isolated'` config which breaks
`msgspec` (missing PEP 684 slot). Add reference
links to PEP 734, PEP 684, cpython sources, and
the msgspec upstream tracker (jcrist/msgspec#563).

Also,
- update error msgs in both `_spawn.py` and
  `_subint.py` to say "3.13+" (matching the actual
  `_interpreters` availability) instead of "3.14+".
- tweak the mod docstring to reflect py3.13+
  availability via the private C module.

Subject: [PATCH 12/26] Fix subint destroy race via dedicated OS thread
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

`trio.to_thread.run_sync(_interpreters.exec, ...)` runs `exec()` on
a cached worker thread — and when that thread is returned to the
cache after the subint's `trio.run()` exits, CPython still keeps
the subint's tstate attached to the (now idle) worker. Result: the
teardown `_interpreters.destroy(interp_id)` in the `finally` block
can block the parent's trio loop indefinitely, waiting for a tstate
release that only happens when the worker either picks up a new job
or exits.

Manifested as intermittent mid-suite hangs under
`--spawn-backend=subint` — caught by a
`faulthandler.dump_traceback_later()` showing the main thread stuck
in `_interpreters.destroy()` at `_subint.py:293` with only an idle
trio-cache worker as the other live thread.

Deats,
- drive the subint on a plain `threading.Thread` (not
  `trio.to_thread`) so the OS thread truly exits after
  `_interpreters.exec()` returns, releasing tstate and unblocking
  destroy
- signal `subint_exited.set()` back to the parent trio loop from
  the driver thread via `trio.from_thread.run_sync(...,
  trio_token=...)` — capture the token at `subint_proc` entry
- swallow `trio.RunFinishedError` in that signal path for the case
  where parent trio has already exited (proc teardown)
- in the teardown `finally`, off-load the sync
  `driver_thread.join()` to `trio.to_thread.run_sync` (cache thread
  w/ no subint tstate → safe) so we actually wait for the driver to
  exit before `_interpreters.destroy()`

Subject: [PATCH 13/26] Add prompt-IO log for subint destroy-race fix

Log the `claude-opus-4-7` session that produced
the `_subint.py` dedicated-thread fix (`26fb8206`).
Substantive bc the patch was entirely AI-generated;
raw log also preserves the CPython-internals
research informing Phase B.3 hard-kill work.

+## Prompt
+
+Follow-up to Phase B.2 (`5cd6df58`) after the user
+observed intermittent mid-suite hangs when running
+the tractor test suite under `--spawn-backend=subint`
+on py3.14. The specific sequence of prompts over
+several turns:
+
+1. User pointed at the `test_context_stream_semantics.py`
+   suite as the first thing to make run clean under
+   `--spawn-backend=subint`.
+2. After a series of `timeout`-terminated runs that
+   gave no diagnostic info, user nudged me to stop
+   relying on `timeout` and get actual runtime
+   diagnostics ("the suite hangs indefinitely, so i

+
+Running theme over the whole exchange: this patch
+only closes the *destroy race*. The user and I also
+traced through the deeper cancellation story — SIGINT
+can't reach subints, legacy-mode shares the GIL,
+portal-cancel dies when the IPC channel is already
+broken — and agreed the next step is a bounded
+hard-kill in `subint_proc`'s teardown plus a
+dedicated cancellation test suite. Those land as
+separate commits.
+
+## Response summary
+
+Produced the `tractor/spawn/_subint.py` patch landed
+as commit `26fb8206` ("Fix subint destroy race via
+dedicated OS thread"). One file, +110/-84 LOC.
+
+Mechanism: swap `trio.to_thread.run_sync(_interpreters
+.exec, ...)` for a plain `threading.Thread(target=...
+, daemon=False)`. The trio thread cache recycles
+workers — so the OS thread that ran `_interpreters
+.exec()` remained alive in the cache holding a
+stale subint tstate, blocking
+`_interpreters.destroy()` in the finally indefinitely.
+A dedicated one-shot thread exits naturally after
+the sync target returns, releasing tstate and
+unblocking destroy.
+
+Coordination across the trio↔thread boundary:
+- `trio.lowlevel.current_trio_token()` captured at
+  `subint_proc` entry
+- driver thread signals `subint_exited.set()` back
+  to parent trio via `trio.from_thread.run_sync(...,
+  trio_token=token)` (synchronous from the thread's
+  POV; the call returns after trio has run `.set()`)
+- `trio.RunFinishedError` swallowed in that path for
+  the process-teardown case where parent trio already
+  exited
+- teardown `finally` off-loads the sync
+  `driver_thread.join()` via `to_thread.run_sync` (a
+  cache thread carries no subint tstate — safe)

+- replaces `trio.to_thread.run_sync(_interpreters.exec, ...)`

+  daemon=False)` so the OS thread truly exits after

+- swallows `trio.RunFinishedError` in the signal path
+  for the case where the parent trio loop has already
+  exited (process teardown)
+- in the teardown `finally` off-loads the sync
+  `driver_thread.join()` call to `trio.to_thread.run_sync`
+  (a cache thread w/ no subint tstate — so no cache
+  conflict) to wait for the driver thread to fully
+  exit before calling `_interpreters.destroy()`
+
+## Non-code output (verbatim) — the CPython-internals research
+
+### What went wrong before this commit
+
+Under `--spawn-backend=subint` on py3.14, most single
+tests passed but longer runs hung intermittently. The
+position of the hang moved between runs (test #22 on
+one run, test #53 on another) suggesting a timing-
+dependent race rather than a deterministic bug.
+
+`faulthandler.dump_traceback_later()` eventually
+caught a stack with the main thread blocked in
+`_interpreters.destroy(interp_id)` at `_subint.py:293`.
+Only 2 threads were alive:
+- main thread waiting in `_interpreters.destroy()`
+- one idle trio thread-cache worker in
+  `trio._core._thread_cache._work`
+
+No subint was still running (`_interpreters.list_all()`
+showed only the main interp). A resource-tracker
+pytest fixture confirmed threads/subints did NOT
+accumulate across tests — this was not a leak but a
+specific "destroy blocks on cached thread w/ stale
+tstate" race.
+
+### Why the race exists
+
+`trio.to_thread.run_sync` uses a thread *cache* to
+avoid OS-thread creation overhead. When the sync
+callable returns, the OS thread is NOT terminated —
+it's parked in `_thread_cache._work` waiting for the
+next job. CPython's subinterpreter implementation
+attaches a **tstate** (thread-state object) to each
+OS thread that ever entered a subint via
+`_interpreters.exec()`. That tstate is released
+lazily — either when the thread picks up a new job
+(which re-attaches a new tstate, evicting the old
+one) or when the thread truly exits.
+
+`_interpreters.destroy(interp_id)` waits for *all*
+tstates associated w/ that subint to be released
+before it can proceed. If the cached worker is idle
+holding the stale tstate, destroy blocks indefinitely.
+Whether the race manifests depends on timing — if
+the cached thread happens to pick up another job
+quickly, destroy unblocks; if it sits idle, we hang.
+
+### Why a dedicated `threading.Thread` fixes it
+
+A plain `threading.Thread(target=_subint_target,
+daemon=False)` runs its target once and exits. When
+the target returns, OS-thread teardown (`_bootstrap_inner`
+→ `_bootstrap`) fires and CPython releases the
+tstate for that thread. `_interpreters.destroy()`
+then has no blocker.
+
+### Diagnostic tactics that actually helped
+
+1. `faulthandler.dump_traceback_later(n, repeat=False,
+   file=open(path, 'w'))` for captured stack dumps on
+   hang. Critically, pipe to a `file=` not stderr —
+   pytest captures stderr weirdly and the dump is
+   easy to miss.
+2. A resource-tracker autouse fixture printing
+   per-test `threading.active_count()` +
+   `len(_interpreters.list_all())` deltas → ruled out
+   leak-accumulation theories quickly.
+3. Running the hanging test *solo* vs in-suite —
+   when solo passes but in-suite hangs, you know
+   it's a cross-test state-transfer bug rather than
+   a test-internal bug.
+
+### Design synthesis — SIGINT + subints + SC
+
+The user and I walked through the cancellation
+semantics of PEP 684/734 subinterpreters in detail.
+Key findings we want to preserve:
+
+**Signal delivery in subints (stdlib limitation).**
+CPython's signal machinery only delivers signals
+(SIGINT included) to the *main thread of the main
+interpreter*. Subints cannot install signal handlers
+that will ever fire. This is an intentional design
+choice in PEP 684 and not expected to change. For
+tractor's subint actors, this means:
+
+- Ctrl-C never reaches a subint directly.
+- `trio.run()` running on a worker thread (as we do
+  for subints) already skips SIGINT handler install
+  because `signal.signal()` raises on non-main
+  threads.
+- The only cancellation surface into a subint is
+  our IPC `Portal.cancel_actor()`.
+
+**Legacy-mode subints share the main GIL** (which
+our impl uses since `msgspec` lacks PEP 684 support
+per `jcrist/msgspec#563`). This means a stuck subint
+thread can starve the parent's trio loop during
+cancellation — the parent can't even *start* its
+teardown handling until the subint yields the GIL.
+
+**Failure modes identified for Phase B.3 audit:**
+
+1. Portal cancel lands cleanly → subint unwinds →
+   thread exits → destroy succeeds. (Happy path.)
+2. IPC channel is already broken when we try to
+   send cancel (e.g., `test_ipc_channel_break_*`)
+   → cancel raises `BrokenResourceError` → subint
+   keeps running unaware → parent hangs waiting for
+   `subint_exited`. This is what breaks
+   `test_advanced_faults.py` under subint.
+3. Subint is stuck in non-checkpointing Python code
+   → portal-cancel msg queued but never processed.
+4. Subint is in a shielded cancel scope when cancel
+   arrives → delay until shield exits.
+
+**Current teardown has a shield-bug too:**
+`trio.CancelScope(shield=True)` wrapping the `finally`
+block absorbs Ctrl-C, so even when the user tries
+to break out they can't. This is the reason
+`test_ipc_channel_break_during_stream[break_parent-...
+no_msgstream_aclose]` locks up unkillable.
+
+**B.3 hard-kill fix plan (next commit):**
+
+1. Bound `driver_thread.join()` with
+   `trio.move_on_after(HARD_KILL_TIMEOUT)`.
+2. If it times out, log a warning naming the
+   `interp_id` and switch the driver thread to
+   `daemon=True` mode (not actually possible after
+   start — so instead create as daemon=True upfront
+   and accept the tradeoff of proc-exit not waiting
+   for a stuck subint).
+3. Best-effort `_interpreters.destroy()`; catch the
+   `InterpreterError` if the subint is still running.
+4. Document that the leak is real and the only
+   escape hatch we have without upstream cooperation.
+
+**Test plan for Phase B.3:**
+
+New `tests/test_subint_cancellation.py` covering:
+- SIGINT at spawn
+- SIGINT mid-portal-RPC
+- SIGINT during shielded section in subint
+- Dead-channel cancel (mirror of `test_ipc_channel_
+  break_during_stream` minimized)
+- Non-checkpointing subint (tight `while True` in
+  user code)
+- Per-test `pytest-timeout`-style bounds so the
+  tests visibly fail instead of wedging the runner
+
+### Sanity-check output (verbatim terminal excerpts)
+
+Post-fix single-test validation:
+```
+1 passed, 1 warning in 1.06s
+```
+(same test that was hanging pre-fix:
+`test_parent_cancels[...cancel_method=ctx-...False]`)
+
+Full `tests/test_context_stream_semantics.py`
+under subint:
+```
+61 passed, 1 warning in 100.35s (0:01:40)
+```
+and a clean-cache re-run:
+```
+61 passed, 1 warning in 100.82s (0:01:40)
+```
+
+No regressions on trio backend (same subset):
+```
+69 passed, 1 skipped, 3 warnings in 89.19s

Subject: [PATCH 14/26] Bound subint teardown shields with hard-kill timeout
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Unbounded `trio.CancelScope(shield=True)` at the
soft-kill and thread-join sites can wedge the parent
trio loop indefinitely when a stuck subint ignores
portal-cancel (e.g. bc the IPC channel is already
broken).

Deats,
- add `_HARD_KILL_TIMEOUT` (3s) module-level const
- wrap both shield sites with
  `trio.move_on_after()` so we abandon a stuck
  subint after the deadline
- flip driver thread to `daemon=True` so proc-exit
  also isn't blocked by a wedged subint
- pass `abandon_on_cancel=True` to
  `trio.to_thread.run_sync(driver_thread.join)`
  — load-bearing for `move_on_after` to actually
  fire
- log warnings when either timeout triggers
- improve `InterpreterError` log msg to explain
  the abandoned-thread scenario

Subject: [PATCH 15/26] Add `._debug_hangs` to `.devx` for hang triage
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Bottle up the diagnostic primitives that actually cracked the
silent mid-suite hangs in the `subint` spawn-backend bringup (issue
there" session has them on the shelf instead of reinventing from
scratch.

Deats,
- `dump_on_hang(seconds, *, path)` — context manager wrapping
  `faulthandler.dump_traceback_later()`. Critical gotcha baked in:
  dumps go to a *file*, not `sys.stderr`, bc pytest's stderr
  capture silently eats the output and you can spend an hour
  convinced you're looking at the wrong thing
- `track_resource_deltas(label, *, writer)` — context manager
  logging per-block `(threading.active_count(),
  len(_interpreters.list_all()))` deltas; quickly rules out
  leak-accumulation theories when a suite progressively worsens (if
  counts don't grow, it's not a leak, look for a race on shared
  cleanup instead)
- `resource_delta_fixture(*, autouse, writer)` — factory returning
  a `pytest` fixture wrapping `track_resource_deltas` per-test; opt
  in by importing into a `conftest.py`. Kept as a factory (not a
  bare fixture) so callers own `autouse` / `writer` wiring

Also,
- export the three names from `tractor.devx`
- dep-free on py<3.13 (swallows `ImportError` for `_interpreters`)
- link back to the provenance in the module docstring (issue #379 /
  commit `26fb820`)

+Hang-diagnostic helpers for concurrent / multi-interpreter code.
+
+Collected from the `subint` spawn backend bringup (issue #379)
+where silent test-suite hangs needed careful teardown
+instrumentation to diagnose. This module bottles up the
+techniques that actually worked so future hangs are faster
+to corner.
+
+Two primitives:
+
+1. `dump_on_hang()` — context manager wrapping
+   `faulthandler.dump_traceback_later()` with the critical
+   gotcha baked in: write the dump to a **file**, not
+   `sys.stderr`. Under `pytest` (and any other output
+   capturer) stderr gets swallowed and the dump is easy to
+   miss — burning hours convinced you're looking at the wrong
+   thing.
+
+2. `track_resource_deltas()` — context manager (+ optional
+   autouse-fixture factory) logging per-block deltas of
+   `threading.active_count()` and — if running on py3.13+ —
+   `len(_interpreters.list_all())`. Lets you quickly rule out
+   leak-accumulation theories when a suite hangs more
+   frequently as it progresses (if counts don't grow, it's
+   not a leak; look for a race on shared cleanup instead).
+
+See issue #379 / commit `26fb820` for the worked example.

Subject: [PATCH 16/26] Raise `subint` floor to py3.14 and split dep-groups
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The private `_interpreters` C module ships since 3.13, but that vintage
wedges under our `threading.Thread` + multi-trio usage pattern
—> `_interpreters.exec()` silently never makes progress. 3.14 fixes it.
So gate on the presence of the public `concurrent.interpreters` wrapper
(3.14+ only) even tho we still call into the private module at runtime.

Deats,
- `try_set_start_method('subint')` error msg + `_subint` module
  docstring/comments rewritten to document the 3.14 floor and why 3.13
  can't work.
- `_subint._has_subints` gate now imports `concurrent.interpreters` (not
  `_interpreters`) as the version sentinel.

Also, reshuffle `pyproject.toml` deps into
per-python-version `[tool.uv.dependency-groups]`:
- `subints` group: `msgspec>=0.21.0`, py>=3.14
- `eventfd` group: `cffi>=1.17.1`, py>=3.13,<3.14
- `sync_pause` group: `greenback`, py>=3.13,<3.14
  (was in `devx`; moved out bc no 3.14 yet)

Bump top-level `msgspec>=0.20.0` too.

Subject: [PATCH 17/26] Add `subint` cancellation + hard-kill test audit
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Lock in the escape-hatch machinery added to `tractor.spawn._subint`
during the Phase B.2/B.3 bringup (issue #379) so future stdlib
regressions or our own refactors don't silently re-introduce the
mid-suite hangs.

Deats,
- `test_subint_happy_teardown`: baseline — spawn a subactor, one portal
  RPC, clean teardown. If this breaks, something's wrong unrelated to
  the hard-kill shields.
- `test_subint_non_checkpointing_child`: cancel a subactor stuck in
  a non-checkpointing Python loop (`threading.Event.wait()` releases the
  GIL but never inserts a trio checkpoint). Validates the bounded-shield
  + daemon-driver-thread combo abandons the thread after
    `_HARD_KILL_TIMEOUT`.

Every test is wrapped in `trio.fail_after()` for a deterministic
per-test wall-clock ceiling (an unbounded audit would defeat itself) and
arms `tractor.devx.dump_on_hang()` so a hang captures a stack dump
— pytest's stderr capture swallows `faulthandler` output by default.

Gated via `pytest.importorskip('concurrent.interpreters')` and
a module-level skip when `--spawn-backend` isn't `'subint'`.

+Cancellation + hard-kill semantics audit for the `subint` spawn
+backend.
+
+Exercises the escape-hatch machinery added to
+`tractor.spawn._subint` (module-level `_HARD_KILL_TIMEOUT`,
+bounded shields around the soft-kill / thread-join sites, daemon
+driver-thread abandonment) so that future stdlib regressions or
+our own refactors don't silently re-introduce the hangs first
+diagnosed during the Phase B.2/B.3 bringup (issue #379).

+Every test in this module:
+- is wrapped in `trio.fail_after()` for a deterministic per-test
+  wall-clock ceiling (the whole point of these tests is to fail
+  fast when our escape hatches regress; an unbounded test would
+  defeat itself),
+- arms `tractor.devx.dump_on_hang()` to capture a stack dump on
+  failure — without it, a hang here is opaque because pytest's
+  stderr capture swallows `faulthandler` output by default
+  (hard-won lesson from the original diagnosis),
+- skips on py<3.13 (no `_interpreters`) and on any
+  `--spawn-backend` other than `'subint'` (these tests are
+  subint-specific by design — they'd be nonsense under `trio` or

Subject: [PATCH 18/26] Doc `subint` backend hang classes + arm `dump_on_hang`
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Classify and write up the two distinct hang modes hit during Phase
B subint bringup (issue #379) so future triage doesn't re-derive them
from scratch.

Deats, two new `ai/conc-anal/` docs,
- `subint_sigint_starvation_issue.md`: abandoned legacy-subint thread
  + shared GIL → main trio loop starves → signal-wakeup-fd pipe fills
  → `SIGINT` silently dropped (`strace` shows `write() = EAGAIN` on the
  wakeup-fd). Un- Ctrl-C-able. Structurally a CPython limit; blocked on
  `msgspec` PEP 684 (jcrist/msgspec#563)

- `subint_cancel_delivery_hang_issue.md`: parent-side trio task parks on
  an orphaned IPC channel after subint teardown — no clean EOF delivered
  to the waiting receive. Ctrl-C-able (main loop iterates fine); OUR bug
  to fix. Candidate fix: explicit parent-side channel abort in
  `subint_proc`'s hard-kill teardown

Cross-link the docs from their test reproducers,
- `test_stale_entry_is_deleted` (→ starvation class): wrap
  `trio.run(main)` in `dump_on_hang(seconds=20)` so a future regression
  captures a stack dump. Kept un- skipped so the dump file is
  inspectable

- `test_subint_non_checkpointing_child` (→ delivery class): extend
  docstring with a "KNOWN ISSUE" block pointing at the analysis

+# `subint` backend: parent trio loop parks after subint teardown (Ctrl-C works; not a CPython-level issue)
+
+Follow-up to the Phase B subint spawn-backend PR (see
+`tractor.spawn._subint`, issue #379). Distinct from the
+`subint_sigint_starvation_issue.md` (SIGINT-unresponsive
+starvation hang): this one is **Ctrl-C-able**, which means
+it's *not* the shared-GIL-hostage class and is ours to fix
+from inside tractor rather than waiting on upstream CPython
+/ msgspec progress.
+
+## TL;DR
+
+After a stuck-subint subactor is torn down via the
+hard-kill path, a parent-side trio task parks on an
+*orphaned resource* (most likely a `chan.recv()` /
+`process_messages` loop on the now-dead subint's IPC
+channel) and waits forever for bytes that can't arrive —
+because the channel was torn down without emitting a clean
+EOF/`BrokenResourceError` to the waiting receiver.
+
+Unlike `subint_sigint_starvation_issue.md`, the main trio
+loop **is** iterating normally — SIGINT delivers cleanly
+and the test unhangs. But absent Ctrl-C, the test suite
+wedges indefinitely.
+
+## Symptom
+
+Running `test_subint_non_checkpointing_child` under
+`--spawn-backend=subint` (in
+`tests/test_subint_cancellation.py`):
+
+1. Test spawns a subactor whose main task runs
+   `threading.Event.wait(1.0)` in a loop — releases the
+   GIL but never inserts a trio checkpoint.
+2. Parent does `an.cancel_scope.cancel()`. Our
+   `subint_proc` cancel path fires: soft-kill sends
+   `Portal.cancel_actor()` over the live IPC channel →
+   subint's trio loop *should* process the cancel msg on
+   its IPC dispatcher task (since the GIL releases are
+   happening).
+3. Expected: subint's `trio.run()` unwinds, driver thread
+   exits naturally, parent returns.
+4. Actual: parent `trio.run()` never completes. Test
+   hangs past its `trio.fail_after()` deadline.
+
+## Evidence
+
+### `strace` on the hung pytest process during SIGINT
+
+```
+--- SIGINT {si_signo=SIGINT, si_code=SI_KERNEL} ---
+write(17, "\2", 1)                      = 1
+```
+
+Contrast with the SIGINT-starvation hang (see
+`subint_sigint_starvation_issue.md`) where that same
+`write()` returned `EAGAIN`. Here the SIGINT byte is
+written successfully → Python's signal handler pipe is
+being drained → main trio loop **is** iterating → SIGINT
+gets turned into `trio.Cancelled` → the test unhangs (if
+the operator happens to be there to hit Ctrl-C).
+
+### Stack dump (via `tractor.devx.dump_on_hang`)
+
+Single main thread visible, parked in
+`trio._core._io_epoll.get_events` inside `trio.run` at the
+test's `trio.run(...)` call site. No subint driver thread
+(subint was destroyed successfully — this is *after* the
+hard-kill path, not during it).
+
+## Root cause hypothesis
+
+Most consistent with the evidence: a parent-side trio
+task is awaiting a `chan.recv()` / `process_messages` loop
+on the dead subint's IPC channel. The sequence:
+
+1. Soft-kill in `subint_proc` sends `Portal.cancel_actor()`
+   over the channel. The subint's trio dispatcher *may* or
+   may not have processed the cancel msg before the subint
+   was destroyed — timing-dependent.
+2. Hard-kill timeout fires (because the subint's main
+   task was in `threading.Event.wait()` with no trio
+   checkpoint — cancel-msg processing couldn't race the
+   timeout).
+3. Driver thread abandoned, `_interpreters.destroy()`
+   runs. Subint is gone.
+4. But the parent-side trio task holding a
+   `chan.recv()` / `process_messages` loop against that
+   channel was **not** explicitly cancelled. The channel's
+   underlying socket got torn down, but without a clean
+   EOF delivered to the waiting recv, the task parks
+   forever on `trio.lowlevel.wait_readable` (or similar).
+
+This matches the "main loop fine, task parked on
+orphaned I/O" signature.
+
+## Why this is ours to fix (not CPython's)
+
+- Main trio loop iterates normally → GIL isn't starved.
+- SIGINT is deliverable → not a signal-pipe-full /
+  wakeup-fd contention scenario.
+- The hang is in *our* supervision code, specifically in
+  how `subint_proc` tears down its side of the IPC when
+  the subint is abandoned/destroyed.
+
+## Possible fix directions
+
+1. **Explicit parent-side channel abort on subint
+   abandon.** In `subint_proc`'s teardown block, after the
+   hard-kill timeout fires, explicitly close the parent's
+   end of the IPC channel to the subint. Any waiting
+   `chan.recv()` / `process_messages` task sees
+   `BrokenResourceError` (or `ClosedResourceError`) and
+   unwinds.
+2. **Cancel parent-side RPC tasks tied to the dead
+   subint's channel.** The `Actor._rpc_tasks` / nursery
+   machinery should have a handle on any
+   `process_messages` loops bound to a specific peer
+   channel. Iterate those and cancel explicitly.
+3. **Bound the top-level `await actor_nursery
+   ._join_procs.wait()` shield in `subint_proc`** (same
+   pattern as the other bounded shields the hard-kill
+   patch added). If the nursery never sets `_join_procs`
+   because a child task is parked, the bound would at
+   least let the teardown proceed.
+
+Of these, (1) is the most surgical and directly addresses
+the root cause. (2) is a defense-in-depth companion. (3)
+is a band-aid but cheap to add.
+
+## Current workaround
+
+None in-tree. The test's `trio.fail_after()` bound
+currently fires and raises `TooSlowError`, so the test
+visibly **fails** rather than hangs — which is
+intentional (an unbounded cancellation-audit test would
+defeat itself). But in interactive test runs the operator
+has to hit Ctrl-C to move past the parked state before
+pytest reports the failure.
+
+## Reproducer
+
+```
+./py314/bin/python -m pytest \
+  tests/test_subint_cancellation.py::test_subint_non_checkpointing_child \
+  --spawn-backend=subint --tb=short --no-header -v
+```
+
+Expected: hangs until `trio.fail_after(15)` fires, or
+Ctrl-C unwedges it manually.

+# `subint` backend: abandoned-subint thread can wedge main trio event loop (Ctrl-C unresponsive)
+
+Follow-up to the Phase B subint spawn-backend PR (see
+`tractor.spawn._subint`, issue #379). The hard-kill escape
+hatch we landed (`_HARD_KILL_TIMEOUT`, bounded shields,
+`daemon=True` driver-thread abandonment) handles *most*
+stuck-subint scenarios cleanly, but there's one class of
+hang that can't be fully escaped from within tractor: a
+still-running abandoned sub-interpreter can starve the
+**parent's** trio event loop to the point where **SIGINT is
+effectively dropped by the kernel ↔ Python boundary** —
+making the pytest process un-Ctrl-C-able.
+
+## Symptom
+
+Running `test_stale_entry_is_deleted[subint]` under
+`--spawn-backend=subint`:
+
+1. Test spawns a subactor (`transport_fails_actor`) which
+   kills its own IPC server and then
+   `trio.sleep_forever()`.
+2. Parent tries `Portal.cancel_actor()` → channel
+   disconnected → fast return.
+3. Nursery teardown triggers our `subint_proc` cancel path.
+   Portal-cancel fails (dead channel),
+   `_HARD_KILL_TIMEOUT` fires, driver thread is abandoned
+   (`daemon=True`), `_interpreters.destroy(interp_id)`
+   raises `InterpreterError` (because the subint is still
+   running).
+4. Test appears to hang indefinitely at the *outer*
+   `async with tractor.open_nursery() as an:` exit.
+5. `Ctrl-C` at the terminal does nothing. The pytest
+   process is un-interruptable.
+
+## Evidence
+
+### `strace` on the hung pytest process
+
+```
+--- SIGINT {si_signo=SIGINT, si_code=SI_KERNEL} ---
+write(37, "\2", 1) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
+rt_sigreturn({mask=[WINCH]}) = 140585542325792
+```
+
+Translated:
+
+- Kernel delivers `SIGINT` to pytest.
+- CPython's C-level signal handler fires and tries to
+  write the signal number byte (`0x02` = SIGINT) to fd 37
+  — the **Python signal-wakeup fd** (set via
+  `signal.set_wakeup_fd()`, which trio uses to wake its
+  event loop on signals).
+- Write returns `EAGAIN` — **the pipe is full**. Nothing
+  is draining it.
+- `rt_sigreturn` with the signal masked off — signal is
+  "handled" from the kernel's perspective but the actual
+  Python-level handler (and therefore trio's
+  `KeyboardInterrupt` delivery) never runs.
+
+### Stack dump (via `tractor.devx.dump_on_hang`)
+
+At 20s into the hang, only the **main thread** is visible:
+
+```
+Thread 0x...7fdca0191780 [python] (most recent call first):
+  File ".../trio/_core/_io_epoll.py", line 245 in get_events
+  File ".../trio/_core/_run.py", line 2415 in run
+  File ".../tests/discovery/test_registrar.py", line 575 in test_stale_entry_is_deleted
+  ...
+```
+
+No driver thread shows up. The abandoned-legacy-subint
+thread still exists from the OS's POV (it's still running
+inside `_interpreters.exec()` driving the subint's
+`trio.run()` on `trio.sleep_forever()`) but the **main
+interp's faulthandler can't see threads currently executing
+inside a sub-interpreter's tstate**. Concretely: the thread
+is alive, holding state we can't introspect from here.
+
+## Root cause analysis
+
+The most consistent explanation for both observations:
+
+1. **Legacy-config subinterpreters share the main GIL.**
+   PEP 734's public `concurrent.interpreters.create()`
+   defaults to `'isolated'` (per-interp GIL), but tractor
+   uses `_interpreters.create('legacy')` as a workaround
+   for C extensions that don't yet support PEP 684
+   (notably `msgspec`, see
+   [jcrist/msgspec#563](https://github.com/jcrist/msgspec/issues/563)).
+   Legacy-mode subints share process-global state
+   including the GIL.
+
+2. **Our abandoned subint thread never exits.** After our
+   hard-kill timeout, `driver_thread.join()` is abandoned
+   via `abandon_on_cancel=True` and the thread is
+   `daemon=True` so proc-exit won't block on it — but the
+   thread *itself* is still alive inside
+   `_interpreters.exec()`, driving a `trio.run()` that
+   will never return (the subint actor is in
+   `trio.sleep_forever()`).
+
+3. **`_interpreters.destroy()` cannot force-stop a running
+   subint.** It raises `InterpreterError` on any
+   still-running subinterpreter; there is no public
+   CPython API to force-destroy one.
+
+4. **Shared-GIL + non-terminating subint thread → main
+   trio loop starvation.** Under enough load (the subint's
+   trio event loop iterating in the background, IPC-layer
+   tasks still in the subint, etc.) the main trio event
+   loop can fail to iterate frequently enough to drain its
+   wakeup pipe. Once that pipe fills, `SIGINT` writes from
+   the C signal handler return `EAGAIN` and signals are
+   silently dropped — exactly what `strace` shows.
+
+The shielded
+`await actor_nursery._join_procs.wait()` at the top of
+`subint_proc` (inherited unchanged from the `trio_proc`
+pattern) is structurally involved too: if main trio *does*
+get a schedule slice, it'd find the `subint_proc` task
+parked on `_join_procs` under shield — which traps whatever
+`Cancelled` arrives. But that's a second-order effect; the
+signal-pipe-full condition is the primary "Ctrl-C doesn't
+work" cause.
+
+## Why we can't fix this from inside tractor
+
+- **No force-destroy API.** CPython provides neither a
+  `_interpreters.force_destroy()` nor a thread-
+  cancellation primitive (`pthread_cancel` is actively
+  discouraged and unavailable on Windows). A subint stuck
+  in pure-Python loops (or worse, C code that doesn't poll
+  for signals) is structurally unreachable from outside.
+- **Shared GIL is the root scheduling issue.** As long as
+  we're forced into legacy-mode subints for `msgspec`
+  compatibility, the abandoned-thread scenario is
+  fundamentally a process-global GIL-starvation window.
+- **`signal.set_wakeup_fd()` is process-global.** Even if
+  we wanted to put our own drainer on the wakeup pipe,
+  only one party owns it at a time.
+
+## Current workaround
+
+- **Fixture-side SIGINT loop on the `daemon` subproc** (in
+  this test's `daemon: subprocess.Popen` fixture in
+  `tests/conftest.py`). The daemon dying closes its end of
+  the registry IPC, which unblocks a pending recv in main
+  trio's IPC-server task, which lets the event loop
+  iterate, which drains the wakeup pipe, which finally
+  delivers the test-harness SIGINT.
+- **Module-level skip on py3.13**
+  (`pytest.importorskip('concurrent.interpreters')`) — the
+  private `_interpreters` C module exists on 3.13 but the
+  multi-trio-task interaction hangs silently there
+  independently of this issue.
+
+## Path forward
+
+1. **Primary**: upstream `msgspec` PEP 684 adoption
+   ([jcrist/msgspec#563](https://github.com/jcrist/msgspec/issues/563)).
+   Unlocks `concurrent.interpreters.create()` isolated
+   mode → per-interp GIL → abandoned subint threads no
+   longer starve the parent's main trio loop. At that
+   point we can flip `_subint.py` back to the public API
+   (`create()` / `Interpreter.exec()` / `Interpreter.close()`)
+   and drop the private `_interpreters` path.
+
+2. **Secondary**: watch CPython for a public
+   force-destroy primitive. If something like
+   `Interpreter.close(force=True)` lands, we can use it as
+   a hard-kill final stage and actually tear down
+   abandoned subints.
+
+3. **Harness-level**: document the fixture-side SIGINT
+   loop pattern as the "known workaround" for subint-
+   backend tests that can leave background state holding
+   the main event loop hostage.

+    KNOWN ISSUE (Ctrl-C-able hang):
+    -------------------------------
+    This test currently hangs past the hard-kill timeout for
+    reasons unrelated to the subint teardown itself — after
+    the subint is destroyed, a parent-side trio task appears
+    to park on an orphaned IPC channel (no clean EOF
+    delivered to a waiting receive). Unlike the
+    SIGINT-starvation sibling case in
+    `test_stale_entry_is_deleted`, this hang IS Ctrl-C-able
+    (`strace` shows SIGINT wakeup-fd `write() = 1`, not
+    `EAGAIN`) — i.e. the main trio loop is still iterating
+    normally. That makes this *our* bug to fix, not a
+    CPython-level limitation.
+
+    See `ai/conc-anal/subint_cancel_delivery_hang_issue.md`
+    for the full analysis + candidate fix directions
+    (explicit parent-side channel abort in `subint_proc`
+    teardown being the most likely surgical fix).
+
+    The sibling `ai/conc-anal/subint_sigint_starvation_issue.md`
+    documents the *other* hang class (abandoned-legacy-subint
+    thread + shared-GIL starvation → signal-wakeup-fd pipe
+    fills → SIGINT silently dropped) — that one is
+    structurally blocked on msgspec PEP 684 adoption and is
+    NOT what this test is hitting.

Subject: [PATCH 19/26] Add prompt-io log for `subint` hang-class docs
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Log the `claude-opus-4-7` collab that produced `e92e3cd2` ("Doc `subint`
backend hang classes + arm `dump_on_hang`"). Substantive bc the two new
`ai/conc-anal/` docs were jointly authored — user framed the two-class
split + set candidate-fix ordering for the class-2 (Ctrl-C-able) hang;
claude drafted the prose and the test-side cross-linking comments.

`.raw.md` is in diff-ref mode — per-file pointers via `git diff
e92e3cd2~1..e92e3cd2 -- <path>` rather than re-embedding content that
already lives in `git log -p`.

+## Prompt
+
+Collab between user (`goodboy`) and `claude` to
+disambiguate two distinct hang modes hit during
+Phase B subint-spawn-backend bringup (issue #379).
+The user ran the failing suites, captured `strace`
+evidence on hung pytest pids, and set the framing:
+
+> "These cannot be the same bug. Different fix
+> paths. Write them up separately or we'll keep
+> conflating them."
+
+Follow-on asks:
+- Cross-link each doc from its reproducer test so
+  a future triager lands on the analysis without
+  needing to grep `ai/conc-anal/`.
+- On `test_stale_entry_is_deleted`: arm
+  `dump_on_hang(seconds=20, path=...)` so a
+  regression captures a stack dump (pytest stderr
+  capture otherwise eats `faulthandler` output).
+- Keep `test_stale_entry_is_deleted` un-`skip`ped
+  so the dump file remains inspectable.
+
+Defer the actual fix for the class-2 hang
+(Ctrl-C-able, tractor-side bug) to a later commit
+per the incremental-commits preference.
+
+## Response summary
+
+Wrote two new `ai/conc-anal/` classification docs
+and cross-linked them from the reproducer tests:
+
+1. **`subint_sigint_starvation_issue.md`** —
+   class 1: abandoned-legacy-subint thread +
+   shared GIL starves main trio loop →
+   signal-wakeup-fd pipe fills → SIGINT silently
+   dropped (`write() = EAGAIN`). Pytest process
+   un-Ctrl-C-able. Structurally a CPython limit;
+   blocked on `msgspec` PEP 684 support
+   (jcrist/msgspec#563). Reproducer:
+   `test_stale_entry_is_deleted[subint]`.
+
+2. **`subint_cancel_delivery_hang_issue.md`** —
+   class 2: parent-side trio task parks on an
+   orphaned IPC channel after subint teardown;
+   no clean EOF delivered to waiting receiver.
+   Ctrl-C-able (main trio loop iterating fine).
+   OUR bug to fix. Candidate fix: explicit
+   parent-side channel abort in `subint_proc`'s
+   hard-kill teardown. Reproducer:
+   `test_subint_non_checkpointing_child`.
+
+Test-side cross-links:
+- `tests/discovery/test_registrar.py`:
+  `test_stale_entry_is_deleted` → `trio.run(main)`
+  wrapped in `dump_on_hang(seconds=20,
+  path=<per-method-tmp>)`; long inline comment
+  summarizes `strace` evidence + root-cause chain
+  and points at both docs.
+- `tests/test_subint_cancellation.py`:
+  `test_subint_non_checkpointing_child` docstring
+  extended with "KNOWN ISSUE (Ctrl-C-able hang)"
+  section pointing at the class-2 doc + noting
+  the class-1 doc is NOT what this test hits.

+
+## Human edits
+
+Substantive collab — prose was jointly iterated:
+
+- User framed the two-doc split, set the
+  classification criteria (Ctrl-C-able vs not),
+  and provided the `strace` evidence.
+- User decided to keep `test_stale_entry_is_deleted`
+  un-`skip`ped (my initial suggestion was
+  `pytestmark.skipif(spawn_backend=='subint')`).
+- User chose the candidate fix ordering for
+  class 2 and marked "explicit parent-side channel
+  abort" as the surgical preferred fix.
+- User picked the file naming convention
+  (`subint_<hang-shape>_issue.md`) over my initial
+  `hang_class_{1,2}.md`.
+- Assistant drafted the prose, aggregated prior-
+  session root-cause findings from Phase B.2/B.3
+  bringup, and wrote the test-side cross-linking
+  comments.
+
+No further mechanical edits expected before
+commit; user may still rewrap via
+`scripts/rewrap.py` if preferred.

+
+> `git diff HEAD~1..HEAD -- ai/conc-anal/subint_sigint_starvation_issue.md`
+
+Writes up the "abandoned-legacy-subint thread wedges
+the parent trio loop" class. Key sections:
+
+- **Symptom** — `test_stale_entry_is_deleted[subint]`
+  hangs indefinitely AND is un-Ctrl-C-able.
+- **Evidence** — annotated `strace` excerpt showing
+  SIGINT delivered to pytest, C-level signal handler
+  tries to write to the signal-wakeup-fd pipe, gets
+  `write() = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
+  unavailable)`. Pipe is full because main trio loop
+  isn't iterating often enough to drain it.
+- **Root-cause chain** — our hard-kill abandons the
+  `daemon=True` driver OS thread after
+  `_HARD_KILL_TIMEOUT`; the subint *inside* that
+  thread is still running `trio.run()`;
+  `_interpreters.destroy()` cannot force-stop a
+  running subint (raises `InterpreterError`); legacy
+  subints share the main GIL → abandoned subint
+  starves main trio loop → wakeup-fd fills → SIGINT
+  silently dropped.
+- **Why it's structurally a CPython limit** — no
+  public force-destroy primitive for a running
+  subint; the only escape is per-interpreter GIL
+  isolation, gated on msgspec PEP 684 adoption
+  (jcrist/msgspec#563).
+- **Current escape hatch** — harness-side SIGINT
+  loop in the `daemon` fixture teardown that kills
+  the bg registrar subproc, eventually unblocking
+  a parent-side recv enough for the main loop to
+  drain the wakeup pipe.
+
+### `ai/conc-anal/subint_cancel_delivery_hang_issue.md` (new, 161 LOC)
+
+> `git diff HEAD~1..HEAD -- ai/conc-anal/subint_cancel_delivery_hang_issue.md`
+
+Writes up the *sibling* hang class — same subint
+backend, distinct root cause:
+
+- **TL;DR** — Ctrl-C-able, so NOT the SIGINT-
+  starvation class; main trio loop iterates fine;
+  ours to fix.
+- **Symptom** — `test_subint_non_checkpointing_child`
+  hangs past the expected `_HARD_KILL_TIMEOUT`
+  budget even after the subint is torn down.
+- **Diagnosis** — a parent-side trio task (likely
+  a `chan.recv()` in `process_messages`) parks on
+  an orphaned IPC channel; channel was torn down
+  without emitting a clean EOF /
+  `BrokenResourceError` to the waiting receiver.
+- **Candidate fix directions** — listed in rough
+  order of preference:
+  1. Explicit parent-side channel abort in
+     `subint_proc`'s hard-kill teardown (surgical;
+     most likely).
+  2. Audit `process_messages` to add a timeout or
+     cancel-scope protection that catches the
+     orphaned-recv state.
+  3. Wrap subint IPC channel construction in a
+     sentinel that can force-close from the parent
+     side regardless of subint liveness.
+
+### `tests/discovery/test_registrar.py` (modified, +52/-1 LOC)
+
+> `git diff HEAD~1..HEAD -- tests/discovery/test_registrar.py`
+
+Wraps the `trio.run(main)` call at the bottom of
+`test_stale_entry_is_deleted` in
+`dump_on_hang(seconds=20, path=<per-method-tmp>)`.
+Adds a long inline comment that:
+- Enumerates variant-by-variant status
+  (`[trio]`/`[mp_*]` = clean; `[subint]` = hangs
+  + un-Ctrl-C-able)
+- Summarizes the `strace` evidence and root-cause
+  chain inline (so a future reader hitting this
+  test doesn't need to cross-ref the doc to
+  understand the hang shape)
+- Points at
+  `ai/conc-anal/subint_sigint_starvation_issue.md`
+  for full analysis
+- Cross-links to the *sibling*
+  `subint_cancel_delivery_hang_issue.md` so
+  readers can tell the two classes apart
+- Explains why it's kept un-`skip`ped: the dump
+  file is useful if the hang ever returns after
+  a refactor. pytest stderr capture would
+  otherwise eat `faulthandler` output, hence the
+  file path.
+
+### `tests/test_subint_cancellation.py` (modified, +26 LOC)
+
+> `git diff HEAD~1..HEAD -- tests/test_subint_cancellation.py`
+
+Extends the docstring of
+`test_subint_non_checkpointing_child` with a
+"KNOWN ISSUE (Ctrl-C-able hang)" block:
+- Describes the current hang: parent-side orphaned
+  IPC recv after hard-kill; distinct from the
+  SIGINT-starvation sibling class.
+- Cites `strace` distinguishing signal: wakeup-fd
+  `write() = 1` (not `EAGAIN`) — i.e. main loop
+  iterating.
+- Points at
+  `ai/conc-anal/subint_cancel_delivery_hang_issue.md`
+  for full analysis + candidate fix directions.
+- Clarifies that the *other* sibling doc
+  (SIGINT-starvation) is NOT what this test hits.
+
+## Non-code output
+
+### Classification reasoning (why two docs, not one)
+
+The user and I converged on the two-doc split after
+running the suites and noticing two *qualitatively
+different* hang symptoms:
+
+1. `test_stale_entry_is_deleted[subint]` — pytest
+   process un-Ctrl-C-able. Ctrl-C at the terminal
+   does nothing. Must kill-9 from another shell.
+2. `test_subint_non_checkpointing_child` — pytest
+   process Ctrl-C-able. One Ctrl-C at the prompt
+   unblocks cleanly and the test reports a hang
+   via pytest-timeout.
+
+From the user: "These cannot be the same bug.
+Different fix paths. Write them up separately or
+we'll keep conflating them."
+
+`strace` on the `[subint]` hang gave the decisive
+signal for the first class:
+
+```
+--- SIGINT {si_signo=SIGINT, si_code=SI_KERNEL} ---
+write(5, "\2", 1) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
+```
+
+fd 5 is Python's signal-wakeup-fd pipe. `EAGAIN`
+on a `write()` of 1 byte to a pipe means the pipe
+buffer is full → reader side (main Python thread
+inside `trio.run()`) isn't consuming. That's the
+GIL-hostage signature.
+
+The second class's `strace` showed `write(5, "\2",
+1) = 1` — clean drain — so the main trio loop was
+iterating and the hang had to be on the application
+side of things, not the kernel-↔-Python signal
+boundary.
+
+### Why the candidate fix for class 2 is "explicit parent-side channel abort"
+
+The second hang class has the trio loop alive. A
+parked `chan.recv()` that will never get bytes is
+fundamentally a tractor-side resource-lifetime bug
+— the IPC channel was torn down (subint destroyed)
+but no one explicitly raised
+`BrokenResourceError` at the parent-side receiver.
+The `subint_proc` hard-kill path is the natural
+place to add that notification, because it already
+knows the subint is unreachable at that point.
+
+Alternative fix paths (blanket timeouts on
+`process_messages`, sentinel-wrapped channels) are
+less surgical and risk masking unrelated bugs —
+hence the preference ordering in the doc.
+
+### Why we're not just patching the code now
+
+The user explicitly deferred the fix to a later
+commit: "Document both classes now, land the fix
+for class 2 separately so the diff reviews clean."
+This matches the incremental-commits preference
+from memory.

Subject: [PATCH 20/26] Wall-cap `subint` audit tests via `pytest-timeout`
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Add a hard process-level wall-clock bound on the two
known-hanging subint-backend tests so an unattended
suite run can't wedge indefinitely in either of the
hang classes doc'd in `ai/conc-anal/`.

Deats,
- New `testing` dep: `pytest-timeout>=2.3`.
- `test_stale_entry_is_deleted`:
  `@pytest.mark.timeout(3, method='thread')`. The
  `method='thread'` choice is deliberate —
  `method='signal'` routes via `SIGALRM` which is
  starved by the same GIL-hostage path that drops
  `SIGINT` (see `subint_sigint_starvation_issue.md`),
  so it'd never actually fire in the starvation case.
- `test_subint_non_checkpointing_child`: same
  decorator, same reasoning (defense-in-depth over
  the inner `trio.fail_after(15)`).

At timeout, `pytest-timeout` hard-kills the pytest
process itself — that's the intended behavior here;
the alternative is the suite never returning.

Subject: [PATCH 24/26] Expand `subint` sigint-starvation hang catalog
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Add two more tests to the catalog in
`conc-anal/subint_sigint_starvation_issue.md` — same
signal-wakeup-fd-saturation fingerprint (abandoned legacy-subint driver
threads → shared-GIL starvation → `write() = EAGAIN` on the wakeup pipe
→ silent SIGINT drop), different load patterns.

Deats,
- `test_cancel_while_childs_child_in_sync_sleep[subint-False]`: nested
  actor-tree + sync-sleeping grandchild. Under `trio`/`mp_*` the "zombie
  reaper" is a subproc `SIGKILL`; no equivalent exists under subint, so
  the grandchild persists in its abandoned driver thread. Often only
  manifests under full-suite runs (earlier tests seed the
  abandoned-thread pool).

- `test_multierror_fast_nursery[subint-25-0.5]`: 25 concurrent subactors
  all go through teardown on the multierror. Bounded hard-kills run in
  parallel — so the total budget is ~3s, not 3s × 25. Leaves 25
  abandoned driver threads simultaneously alive, an extreme pressure
  multiplier. `strace` shows several successful `write(16, "\2", 1) = 1`
  (GIL round-robin IS giving main brief slices) before finally
  saturating with `EAGAIN`.

Also include a `pstree -snapt <pid>` capture showing
16+ live `{subint-driver[<interp_id>}` threads at the
moment of hang — the direct GIL-contender population.

 Hangs indefinitely without the fixture-side SIGINT loop;
 with the loop, the test completes (albeit with the
 abandoned-thread warning in logs).
+
+## Additional known-hanging tests (same class)
+
+All three tests below exhibit the same
+signal-wakeup-fd-starvation fingerprint (`write() → EAGAIN`
+on the wakeup pipe after enough SIGINT attempts) and
+share the same structural cause — abandoned legacy-subint
+driver threads contending with the main interpreter for
+the shared GIL until the main trio loop can no longer
+drain its wakeup pipe fast enough to deliver signals.
+
+They're listed separately because each exposes the class
+under a different load pattern worth documenting.
+
+### `tests/discovery/test_registrar.py::test_stale_entry_is_deleted[subint]`
+
+Original exemplar — see the **Symptom** and **Evidence**
+sections above. One abandoned subint
+(`transport_fails_actor`, stuck in `trio.sleep_forever()`
+after self-cancelling its IPC server) is sufficient to
+tip main into starvation once the harness's `daemon`
+fixture subproc keeps its half of the registry IPC alive.
+
+### `tests/test_cancellation.py::test_cancel_while_childs_child_in_sync_sleep[subint-False]`
+
+Cancel a grandchild that's in sync Python sleep from 2
+nurseries up. The test's own docstring declares the
+dependency: "its parent should issue a 'zombie reaper' to
+hard kill it after sufficient timeout" — which for
+`trio`/`mp_*` is an OS-level `SIGKILL` of the grandchild
+subproc. **Under `subint` there's no equivalent** (no
+public CPython API to force-destroy a running
+sub-interpreter), so the grandchild's sync-sleeping
+`trio.run()` persists inside its abandoned driver thread
+indefinitely. The nested actor-tree (parent → child →
+grandchild, all subints) means a single cancel triggers
+multiple concurrent hard-kill abandonments, each leaving
+a live driver thread.
+
+This test often only manifests the starvation under
+**full-suite runs** rather than solo execution —
+earlier-in-session subint tests also leave abandoned
+driver threads behind, and the combined population is
+what actually tips main trio into starvation. Solo runs
+may stay Ctrl-C-able with fewer abandoned threads in the
+mix.
+
+### `tests/test_cancellation.py::test_multierror_fast_nursery[subint-25-0.5]`
+
+Nursery-error-path throughput stress-test parametrized
+for **25 concurrent subactors**. When the multierror
+fires and the nursery cancels, every subactor goes
+through our `subint_proc` teardown. The bounded
+hard-kills run in parallel (all `subint_proc` tasks are
+sibling trio tasks), so the timeout budget is ~3s total
+rather than 3s × 25. After that, **25 abandoned
+`daemon=True` driver threads are simultaneously alive** —
+an extreme pressure multiplier on the same mechanism.
+
+The `strace` fingerprint is striking under this load: six
+or more **successful** `write(16, "\2", 1) = 1` calls
+(main trio getting brief GIL slices, each long enough to
+drain exactly one wakeup-pipe byte) before finally
+saturating with `EAGAIN`:
+
+```
+--- SIGINT {si_signo=SIGINT, si_code=SI_KERNEL} ---
+write(16, "\2", 1)                      = 1
+rt_sigreturn({mask=[WINCH]})            = 140141623162400

+--- SIGINT {si_signo=SIGINT, si_code=SI_KERNEL} ---
+write(16, "\2", 1)                      = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
+rt_sigreturn({mask=[WINCH]})            = 140141623162400
+```
+
+Those successful writes indicate CPython's
+`sys.getswitchinterval()`-based GIL round-robin *is*
+giving main brief slices — just never long enough to run
+the Python-level signal handler through to the point
+where trio converts the delivered SIGINT into a
+`Cancelled` on the appropriate scope. Once the
+accumulated write rate outpaces main's drain rate, the
+pipe saturates and subsequent signals are silently
+dropped.
+
+The `pstree` below (pid `530060` = hung `pytest`) shows
+the subint-driver thread population at the moment of
+capture. Even with fewer than the full 25 shown (pstree
+truncates thread names to `subint-driver[<interp_id>` —
+interpreters `3` and `4` visible across 16 thread
+entries), the GIL-contender count is more than enough to
+explain the starvation:
+
+```

Subject: [PATCH 25/26] Add `skipon_spawn_backend` pytest marker
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

A reusable `@pytest.mark.skipon_spawn_backend( '<backend>' [, ...],
reason='...')` marker for backend-specific known-hang / -borked cases
— avoids scattering `@pytest.mark.skipif(lambda ...)` branches across
tests that misbehave under a particular `--spawn-backend`.

Deats,
- `pytest_configure()` registers the marker via
  `addinivalue_line('markers', ...)`.
- New `pytest_collection_modifyitems()` hook walks
  each collected item with `item.iter_markers(
  name='skipon_spawn_backend')`, checks whether the
  active `--spawn-backend` appears in `mark.args`, and
  if so injects a concrete `pytest.mark.skip(
  reason=...)`. `iter_markers()` makes the decorator
  work at function, class, or module (`pytestmark =
  [...]`) scope transparently.
- First matching mark wins; default reason is
  `f'Borked on --spawn-backend={backend!r}'` if the
  caller doesn't supply one.

Also, tighten type annotations on nearby `pytest`
integration points — `pytest_configure`, `debug_mode`,
`spawn_backend`, `tpt_protos`, `tpt_proto` — now taking
typed `pytest.Config` / `pytest.FixtureRequest` params.

Subject: [PATCH 26/26] Mark `subint`-hanging tests with `skipon_spawn_backend`
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Adopt the `@pytest.mark.skipon_spawn_backend('subint',
reason=...)` marker (a617b521) across the suites
reproducing the `subint` GIL-contention / starvation
hang classes doc'd in `ai/conc-anal/subint_*_issue.md`.

Deats,
- Module-level `pytestmark` on full-file-hanging suites:
  - `tests/test_cancellation.py`
  - `tests/test_inter_peer_cancellation.py`
  - `tests/test_pubsub.py`
  - `tests/test_shm.py`
- Per-test decorator where only one test in the file
  hangs:
  - `tests/discovery/test_registrar.py
    ::test_stale_entry_is_deleted` — replaces the
    inline `if start_method == 'subint': pytest.skip`
    branch with a declarative skip.
  - `tests/test_subint_cancellation.py
    ::test_subint_non_checkpointing_child`.
- A few per-test decorators are left commented-in-
  place as breadcrumbs for later finer-grained unskips.

Also, some nearby tidying in the affected files:
- Annotate loose fixture / test params
  (`pytest.FixtureRequest`, `str`, `tuple`, `bool`) in
  `tests/conftest.py`, `tests/devx/conftest.py`, and
  `tests/test_cancellation.py`.
- Normalize `"""..."""` → `'''...'''` docstrings per
  repo convention on a few touched tests.
- Add `timeout=6` / `timeout=10` to
  `@tractor_test(...)` on `test_cancel_infinite_streamer`
  and `test_some_cancels_all`.
- Drop redundant `spawn_backend` param from
  `test_cancel_via_SIGINT`; use `start_method` in the
  `'mp' in ...` check instead.
