monitor.rs

//! Background monitor daemon.
//!
//! Spawns a detached child process that *owns* the coding agent: it launches
//! the agent, captures its stdout and exit code into `.devflow/`, and — when
//! the agent exits — runs `devflow advance` to advance the stage machine.
//!
//! Owning the agent is the key fix over a CLI-scoped capture thread: because
//! the monitor outlives `devflow start`, the agent's stdout keeps flowing into
//! the capture file and its exit code is still reaped after the CLI exits.
//!
//! This is the core automation primitive — no cron, no scheduler,
//! no agent cooperation needed.

///
/// Variance across all five: ±0.02s. `cargo test --workspace` is not a contrived
/// case — it sits inside DevFlow's own post-merge gate, so the old floor would

///   of the existing `is_top_level` predicate and the existing marker parser,
///   never a looser text search. The CLI echoes the operator's prompt back
///   into the same stdout, and DevFlow's own stage prompts discuss
///   `DEVFLOW_RESULT` markers at length, so marker text alone is not evidence
///   (T-31-01; the same echo produced the checkpoint false positive 30-05
///   fixed).
/// - **Drain arm.** Satisfied when no `background_tasks_changed` event has
///   ever announced anything (vacuous — the common single-plan case) or when
///   the most recent one carried an empty list.
///
/// **The drain alone is never a stop signal.** 30c/30d measured the
/// drain-to-final-`result` lag at 4.54–11.51s across 14 trials; closing at the
/// drain would have truncated the final orchestrator turn in all seven 30d
/// trials.
///
/// **Never count `result` events.** Constraint 7: the CLI coalesces
/// completions, so a wave whose children finish together produces one `result`
/// for several of them — a shape superficially indistinguishable from "one
/// child delivered, one lost". The drained list is the only thing separating
/// those two. Per 30-04 the drain arm is *defensive rather than load-bearing*
/// (n=2 Mode B trials delivered everything without it); that is the recorded
/// reason to keep it cheaply, not a reason to drop it.
///
/// **A line that does not parse as JSON is ignored by this rule** — it can
/// neither satisfy nor block either arm — but it is still teed verbatim to the
/// capture file by the reader thread. A torn line therefore cannot silently
/// decide anything, and cannot be silently lost either.
/// The three states a `background_tasks_changed` announcement can leave the
/// close rule in. Kept as a named enum rather than `Option<usize>` (999.75 /
/// DEN-96, fixed 2026-08-04): a plain `Option` cannot distinguish "no
/// announcement has ever arrived" from "an announcement arrived but its
/// `tasks` field was not a readable array", and both used to collapse onto
/// `None`. `should_close()` treats `None` as permission to close — so an

/// unwaited `Child`, the kernel cannot recycle that pid, so it cannot come to
/// mean some unrelated process between spawn and now. A pid re-read from disk
/// carries no such guarantee.
///
/// Three steps, and the middle one is borrowed whole rather than reimplemented:
///
/// 1. `SIGTERM` to the GROUP. `.process_group(0)` at spawn made the child its
///    own group leader, so its pid IS its pgid and `-pid` reaches its whole
///    subtree — the tool subprocesses a coding agent leaves behind, which a
///    leader-only signal would orphan. It cannot reach this monitor: the
///    monitor stayed in its own inherited group, which is precisely what
///    `.process_group(0)` bought (T-31-05).
/// 2. [`crate::agent::terminate_and_verify`] for the leader — reused, not
///    rewritten. It owns the `SIGTERM` → poll → `SIGKILL` → re-poll
///    escalation and returns a verified liveness fact instead of an
///    assumption. 999.44 measured 15 of 15 orphaned wrappers surviving
///    `SIGTERM`, so the escalation is not optional.
/// 3. `SIGKILL` to the group, sweeping any survivor the leader's own
///    escalation did not cover. Unconditional by design: at this point the run
///    is over, everything in the group is the agent's subtree, and a `kill` to
///    an empty group is a no-op `ESRCH`.
///
/// The `signed > 1` guard is load-bearing twice over. `kill(-1, sig)` signals
