Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The fallback now uses an explicit SIGKILL for the directly owned child, but the regression test still does not enforce the single-attempt contract it describes. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up to tighten that test. Poem

process transport test to require exactly one fallback attempt rather than
accepting any nonzero count. Preserve the existing multiline matching behavior
and verify the recorded signal count is precisely 1.

Clear the readiness marker before waiting
If an earlier probe is interrupted before its tail cleanup and the OS later reuses that probe's PID, this predictable path can already exist when the new probe starts. waitForChildReady() then returns true before the new child installs its SIGTERM handler, allowing the old default-SIGTERM implementation to terminate the child and falsely pass this regression. Remove the marker before spawning, or place it in a freshly created per-run directory.

Purpose
Stacked validation PR for:
PR026-CODEX-NONIGNORABLE-FALLBACK-SIGNALThis PR is intentionally narrow and quarantined.
It is a CHILD OF PR #26.
It targets:
repair/pr025-termination-fallback-child-leakIt does NOT target PR #25 directly.
It does NOT target protected PR #10 directly.
It does NOT target

Finding ID:
PR026-CODEX-NONIGNORABLE-FALLBACK-SIGNALClassification:
CURRENT P2Affected parent HEAD:
b55ac5877e93cc4fafd27e5bd1089c9031fcc68fAfter mandatory post-spawn dispatch hardening fails, the ordinary termination strategy can fault before delivering a signal under hostile
ChildProcessruntime state.PR #26's bounded direct-child fallback then called
ChildProcess.kill()without an explicit signal.On POSIX that defaults to
SIGTERM, which a child may catch or ignore.Because this fallback gets one bounded direct-child attempt and does not wait/escalate, a directly owned child could remain alive after caller-facing rejection.
Repair
The bounded repair changes only the fallback signal for this exact fault path to an explicit:
SIGKILLThe fallback still targets only the directly owned child.
It does not signal a process group or tree and does not introduce any stronger descendant-termination guarantee.
Adversarial regression coverage now includes a POSIX child that installs a
SIGTERMhandler before the fallback executes and verifies transport-abandonment evidence before harness cleanup.Changed files
Exactly:
src/adapters/process-transport.tstests/adapters/process-transport.test.tsNo unrelated files changed.

Independent validation

git diff --check: PASS.The POSIX outcome regression was not executed locally on Windows, but is POSIX-gated and is intended to execute on Linux CI. Local validation independently verified the harness staging and signal-observation mechanism and demonstrated baseline/candidate discrimination.
Separate outstanding finding
The separate PR #25 Finding A remains OUT OF SCOPE:
parent-side regression probe missing
ChildProcesserrorhandling.Do not combine it with this repair.
It must be reverified separately after the current repair chain is integrated and PR #25's resulting NEW HEAD is established.
Quarantine rule
This DRAFT PR is evidence/proposal only.
Do not merge merely because implementation, independent validation, CI, Codex, or CodeRabbit reports success.
Required gates before upward integration into PR #26:
Ready is NOT the merge gate.
