The rollback fixture selected two ephemeral ports while both were unbound. If the kernel recycled the first port, the foreign listener answered the first helper's expected identity and was correctly adopted, causing expected an owned claim.

Start the owned helper before selecting the foreign listener's port, and assert the ports differ. All rollback, holder-retention and foreign-process survival assertions remain. Product claim publication already awaits durable writes before returning ready; no runtime change is needed.

Validation: a controlled duplicate-port setup reproduces the exact failure with an adopted claim; real consecutive bind probes also returned the same port. The unchanged full file passed 200/200 under concurrent test load. The focused rollback test, changed-file lint and privacy check pass, and the persistent Opus review is clean at 9e54433b. See PR comments for the fixed-file 200-run qualification and hosted Linux results; both are still in progress when opening this PR. No macOS shards requested for this test-only change.

HACK-2234

[roodboi]

HACK-2234: the persistent Opus review is clean at 9e54433b. The original setup's controlled duplicate port reproduces the exact owned-claim assertion, with an adopted claim; the unchanged file also passed 200/200 under concurrent load without a natural hit. The fixed-file 200-run qualification is running with eight isolated file workers plus another test file. I will post its final count and hosted results before handoff.

Qualification update at 0fbd6852fe275c3e59857b5134b9f60062bd2c1c: the target rollback case passed all 200 runs of the eight-copy stress batch, but the full batch was 199/200, not a clean pass. Run 37 failed the later single-helper release-retry setup with expected an owned claim. The failed log is retained. Simultaneous copies may validly adopt each other's matching helper fixtures; the earlier run did not capture the actual claim kind, so that attribution remains a hypothesis.

The assertion now reports the fixed claim kind (or missing), while still requiring owned. The same persistent reviewer approved this diagnostic delta and the qualification design. A fresh 200-run check is running one full-file process at a time, alongside continuous project-lifecycle-controller-ownership.test.ts in a separate fixture root. That keeps real test/process load while avoiding overlapping identical helper fixtures and mirrors hosted per-file isolation. All 30 tests, including the two ten-second lock cases, remain enabled; this takes about 95 minutes. The run stops on a failure and is not retried until green. Final counts will follow before readiness.

The unchanged baseline was 200/200 with 39 passing companion-file runs. The controlled duplicate-port setup remains the direct reproduction of HACK-2234. No runtime code changed.

Ready for lead: 0fbd6852fe275c3e59857b5134b9f60062bd2c1c.

HACK-2234's rollback fixture could select the same ephemeral port twice before either listener bound. Its foreign listener then answered the first helper's expected identity and was correctly adopted. The controlled collision reproduces the exact owned-claim failure with an adopted claim. Product claim writes are already awaited and durable; no runtime change is needed.

The owned helper now starts before the foreign listener's port is selected, and the test asserts distinct ports. All rollback, holder-retention and foreign-survival assertions remain. Failure diagnostics additionally name only the observed fixed claim kind or missing.

• Exact-head Linux/Bun 1.4.4 qualification: 200/200 consecutive full-file runs, one at a time, with all 30 cases enabled, alongside 728/728 passing project-lifecycle-controller-ownership.test.ts runs. No failures or stop-watch event; 94.9 minutes.
• All five hosted Linux shards and required test gate passed at this head. Same persistent Opus reviewer and current-head Codex are clean. computer pr review-status: CLEAR at 0fbd685, no unresolved bot threads. Changed-test lint and privacy pass; no Mac shards dispatched.
• Earlier evidence is retained separately: unchanged file 200/200 under eight-copy load; first fixed eight-copy batch 199/200, with the target case passing all 200 and one different single-helper setup failure. Cross-copy adoption is suspected but not proven. That failed batch is not counted as the final qualification, which models hosted per-file isolation under different-file load.

Only tests/project-shared-helpers.test.ts changes. Base is next; the PR is mergeable. No other scope included.

[roodboi]

Ready for lead: 4627ed49f6d89ac5b80cda9a1656166f8fb13ecb (exact-head hosted CI/Codex and lead Mac qualification pending; merge frozen).

Normal merge includes next at 5002cf87bb50686b17ceae8a4c835f524ee1b3a5 (#809/#820/#830). The only conflict was the rollback fixture: #809 already brought in the start-first-helper-before-selecting-second-port correction. Resolution keeps #829's test file byte-identical to its 200-run-qualified head 0fbd6852; compared with next, this PR adds the explicit distinct-port assertion, observed claim-kind diagnostic and comment wording. Every rollback/holder/foreign-survival assertion remains.

Same persistent Opus reviewer: clean at this merge head, no blockers. Post-merge full helper and lifecycle-controller ownership files: 56 tests / 352 assertions pass, zero failures/skips. CLI typecheck, changed-file lint and privacy pass. Earlier qualification remains 200/200 full-file sequential runs alongside 728/728 background ownership-file runs at 0fbd6852, with identical test bytes but the earlier product baseline; that is not a 200-run result at the merged head. The earlier eight-copy batch's 199/200 result remains disclosed in the prior note.

No Mac shard was manually dispatched. Lead owns Mac batch and merging after next.17; no merge performed.

Lead note: verified on the Mac batch tree at this head (next 5002cf8 + #829 + #834: typecheck, 169 selected test files, the nine relocated acceptance scripts, VM smoke); review-status CLEAR. next is frozen as the next.17 candidate until its hosted run completes and the prerelease publishes; this merges right after, if the head has not moved.
