9 [2/4]. Report a registration that arrives after the load pass

[nikolaystrikhar]

What: Registry\Reader::buffer() reports a registration that arrives past the load pass through _doing_it_wrong(); Boot\Scheduler exposes registration_window_has_closed() and reads the plugins_loaded position once for both windows.

Usage: a host module registering from its own plugins_loaded callback at the default priority used to vanish without a symptom. Now:

Absorber::register() ran after plugins_loaded had gone past the load
pass, so "give-recurring" arrived too late to be read. Register at
plugin-file scope, or no later than plugins_loaded priority 5.

Why this way:

The measurement stays with the priorities. The registry asks; Boot\Scheduler answers, because the answer turns on this library's own priorities and how far its hook has got. A registry reading $GLOBALS['wp_filter'] for itself would hold a second copy of a rule that moves whenever a priority here does.

Reporting is the whole remedy. boot() can fall back inline because the sequence had not run yet. Here it has. Requiring the file from a registration would be a load pass of one that skipped every gate and ran behind the conflict step, landing the bundled copy on a standalone nobody stood down.

It speaks only inside the dispatch. After plugins_loaded a host that has not booted yet is not late — wire() runs the sequence inline and reads the buffer — and nothing here can tell that host from one whose pass is long past. Where the answer is unknowable, the guard says nothing rather than warning about a sub-plugin that loaded.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes

  • Improved handling of registrations made after the plugin loading window has closed.
  • Late registrations remain buffered and now generate clear developer warnings instead of being loaded unexpectedly.
  • Registrations made during permitted loading priorities continue to work as expected.
  • Registrations made outside the loading process are handled safely without unintended warnings or fallback loading.

• Tests

  • Added coverage for late, valid-priority, and out-of-process registration scenarios.

Changes

Registration window handling

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Scheduler window detection src/Boot/Scheduler.php	Scheduler now reports whether plugins_loaded has passed LOAD_PRIORITY. Wiring-window detection uses the shared hook-position helper.
Late registration reporting and validation src/Registry/Reader.php, tests/unit/Registry/ReaderTest.php	Reader reports late registrations with _doing_it_wrong() and keeps them buffered. Tests cover valid priorities, late dispatch, non-dispatch registration, and callback cleanup.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to bc10d

Late-registration diagnostics can allow an exception from a diagnostic listener to interrupt plugin loading. This is a bounded but concrete runtime risk that should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging.

diagnostic call in Throwable handling so exceptions from doing_it_wrong_run
listeners cannot escape the plugins_loaded callback or interrupt the load pass.
Add a regression test that registers a throwing diagnostic listener and verifies
buffering remains contained.
