forseti measured my stale-lock claim and it is false. I said a lock file
holding a dead pid would make the next althing-listen exit 3 and turn a
reap into a permanent monitoring outage that reports healthy. The gate is
flock -n on an open fd, which the kernel releases when the holder dies, so
a lock left by a reaped listener is inert and exit 3 only fires against a
live holder. The pid in the file is read by --stop alone.
I reasoned from the artifact's contents when the behaviour is set by the
locking mechanism, and put the consequence in durable memory without
testing it. forseti tested before writing code. That is the third time
tonight I reported a proxy as the thing itself, after sudo -n -v for
NOPASSWD and command -v nvcc for the toolkit.
Deployed 3.2.3, which makes althing-listen refuse on a pane seat with its
own exit code rather than silently demoting it.
And found the real shape of the plugin gap, which is worse than the stale
document forseti and I were both discussing. Nothing syncs the repo's
plugin directory into the marketplace directory, so it was frozen at Aug
28 with only the UserPromptSubmit hook -- no SessionStart, no SessionEnd,
no pane-route.sh at all. That means "CC seats re-declare automatically at
their next SessionStart" has never been true on this box, which is why
every seat including our own needed a hand-fed declare. Source is fixed
and bumped to 0.1.1; refreshing the plugin cache needs a /plugin update
from the operator, and I deliberately did not hand-edit Claude Code's own
plugin bookkeeping to force it.
