Review round 2, three findings.
setsid is util-linux, not coreutils, and the standard `cargo test --lib`
gate must not hard-fail on a tool the README does not declare -- a
minimal or BusyBox container would fail without ever testing pmacs. The
hard assert becomes skip-unless-armed via PMACS_REQUIRE_SETSID, which is
the pattern the silent-skip lane already established, so the test cannot
quietly report `ok` having never run where the tool is guaranteed. CI
arms it on Linux; README declares it. Both arms verified against a PATH
with setsid genuinely removed: unarmed skips with its message, armed
FAILS with the diagnostic.
The durable causal account was wrong, and this corrects it in the
framing, the handoff and the ledger. basedpyright's console script runs
bundled node through `subprocess.run` and WAITS
(nodejs_wheel/executable.py:50, verified in the installed 1.39.6). It
does not exit at spawn. What orphans node is pmacs: `shutdown()` SIGTERMs
the recorded pid -- the Python wrapper -- which dies without forwarding
the signal, leaving node at PPid 1 holding the pipes. The refutation was
already in hand: the initialize handshake succeeds, which a wrapper that
exited at spawn could not have done, and the PPid 1 observation was taken
after shutdown had killed it.
The fix is unaffected -- the deadlock and its bite are unchanged -- but
the parked follow-up changes target: not "tolerate servers that
self-orphan" but "stop orphaning them", i.e. signal the process group
rather than a wrapper pid that swallows the signal. Framing section 5 P2
restated.
Also corrects a stale CI-ordering claim: the handoff said pyright must
stay unarmed until the timeout lane lands, but #195 is this PR's base and
gave every job a timeout-minutes. The one live reason is that CI does not
install basedpyright at all. The ci.yml comment asserting the job has no
timeout-minutes was stale for the same reason and is rewritten.
