A message sent before the stop flag is observed must be delivered and run
before the engine stops. One rule; a spin count could never express it.
- root cause in `shard_main` (runtime/src/vm.c): NEXT_RUNNABLE() already
stated the contract — "a WORKER on stop keeps DRAINING ... so queued
shutdown messages (close frames!) still run" — but the IDLE branch
contradicted it, calling fib_reap_all and breaking on WO_IO_STOP,
abandoning its inbox for wo_engine_stop() to free wholesale
- an actor between messages is exactly that idle case, which is why a WARM
soak server hid it: warm shards held live fibers and took the right path
- fix: while the primary's drain window is open, an idle worker adopts its
inbox and runs what arrives; sched_yield on an empty poll so a drain
cannot burn a core per shard and starve the actors it exists to let run
- unreachable at WO_SHARDS=1: wo_engine_stop returns early at nshards <= 1
Measured:
- fresh-server SIGTERM drain: 5 of 16 failing before, 20 of 20 clean after
- `just chat` at the FULL 1000-client soak: 11 checks, 0 failures, both
WO_IO backends, ASan clean with zero leaks
- the fd leg settled at scale too: 1000 connections left the count at 44,
unchanged after 20 more — lazy per-shard init, not a leak
- runtime battery 36 suites (18 x both dispatch flavors) 0 fail;
compiler 556 checks 0 fail
- story: docs/stories/language-runtime-database/40-shutdown-drain-guarantee.md
(chain 3 with 31, status done), board row, slice marker updated
- outstanding and named: a pin below the gate needs new multithreaded test
infrastructure — nothing in runtime/test/ drives wo_engine_start/stop and
no corpus fixture can trigger a stop

- T4 monitor + T5 time.after landed in 4092074 (ids 89/90); marker still
listed them pending because it came from master, which lacks that commit
- records the branch baseline (18 suites x 2 flavors, 0 fail) and the gate
at 11 of 12 legs green
- names the stale-artifact trap: after a branch switch, compiler/_build and
runtime/build hold the OTHER branch's binaries, and a v7-vs-v6 mismatch
surfaces only as "no listener"
- the drain guarantee is now the single named blocker; nothing else in the
slice should land before it

- README: shipped concurrency/HTTP/WebSockets sat in the roadmap as "not yet
available"; "no package manager" contradicted [deps]; the deps example
would not have compiled (the key IS the module name)
- runtime/README: leads with wovm, wo-rt.c demoted to a historical section;
dropped 2 nonexistent recipes, crates/rt, @gc refcounting, 13 suites -> 18
- employee + log-watcher READMEs claimed "does not compile"; both are gates
- error catalog: +10 emitted codes incl WO-E250, the only diagnostic the
shipped query surface raises; recorded why the sweep rotted
- language-surface: group-by parses, then the typechecker refuses it
- 00-code-review + 00-link-audit re-run; history kept, not rewritten
- 48 dead Rust-era exploration links de-linked rather than re-pointed (their
prose names the retired plan by number); successor map -> discarded.md
- 08-project-structure: compiler/plan/ never existed; corpus has 9 dirs, 5 empty
- releasing.md: dropped a --draft step the workflow never had
- new docs/00-doc-audit.md: findings + disposition, incl one row where the
audit was wrong and the doc it accused was right
- status folders removed: 34 stories flat, status only in frontmatter; 252
links recomputed from resolved paths; board/board-views/structure retaught
- story 24 -> in-progress, since frontmatter is now the only truth
- new iteration 38: fs mutation verbs + net.connect, the two capability
families no iteration owned
- new iteration 39: gofiber/fiber v3.5.0 parity study. The ledger called
CSRF/sessions unblocked by iteration 34's HMAC, but the runtime has no
source of randomness at all
- linkcheck skips .dev/.superpowers: 0 broken paths, 0 bad anchors
