// daemon_attach.rs --- `pmacs --daemon-attach` byte bridge (T M5.7b).

//! Far-side byte bridge between stdin/stdout and a local daemon
//! socket.
//!
//! `pmacs --daemon-attach` is the mode that runs on the far side of
//! an SSH connection (or any other transport that can spawn a
//! process and bridge its stdio). It connects to the local daemon's
//! Unix socket and forwards bytes verbatim:
//!
//! ```text
//!     stdin  ──>  socket
//!     socket ──>  stdout
//! ```
//!
//! # Transparent forwarding
//!
//! The bridge is **not** a protocol participant. It does not parse
//! [`crate::protocol::Hello`] frames or speak postcard. It is a pair
//! of `std::io::copy` loops. The Hello/AttachRequest handshake
//! happens between the *real* frontend (on the user's laptop) and
//! the *real* daemon (on the same machine as the bridge); the bridge
//! just shuttles the bytes those two parties exchange.
//!
//! This is the simplest possible thing that works, and it's correct:
//! the bridge has no knowledge of protocol versioning, no opinion on
//! framing, and adds no surface to the wire format. Adding a new
//! protocol message in v0.2 does not require touching this file.
//!
//! # Lifetime
//!
//! The bridge process's lifetime equals the attach session's
//! lifetime. When the user detaches (F12 → Detach → daemon Goodbye →
//! socket close → bridge sees EOF → bridge exits → SSH child exits),
//! both copy loops return naturally and `run_daemon_attach` returns
//! `Ok(())`. When the SSH client closes its end of the pipe (e.g.,
//! the user kills the local frontend), the bridge's stdin sees EOF,
//! the stdin→socket copy returns, the socket→stdout copy returns
//! when the daemon notices and closes its side, and the function
//! returns `Ok(())`.
//!
//! # Auto-start (M5.7c)
//!
//! If the daemon is not already listening when the bridge tries to
//! connect, [`ensure_daemon_running`] spawns `pmacs --daemon
//! --socket PATH` as a child process and polls until the socket
//! becomes connectable (or a timeout expires). The bridge then
//! proceeds with the byte-pump as if the daemon had been there all
//! along.
//!
//! **No setsid.** The crate forbids `unsafe`, so we cannot use
//! `Command::pre_exec` to detach the daemon from our session. We
//! rely on a different property: in the typical SSH spawn pattern
//! (`ssh host pmacs --daemon-attach`), SSH does not allocate a
//! controlling terminal, so there is no terminal-hangup channel to
//! deliver SIGHUP through. The daemon's parent (the bridge) exits;
//! the daemon is re-parented to init/PID 1; no signal is sent. The
//! daemon survives across attach sessions, which is the contract.
//! Edge cases (e.g., explicit `kill -- -PGID` against the bridge's
//! process group) are accepted limitations for v0.1.
