What & why

Every hook-recorded muse exec session stayed active on the server. Muse documents 15 s for SessionEnd hooks, but muse exec kills the hook well inside a second (shutdown_steps.hooks_ms ≈ 570 ms), so a hook that drained the log and posted the end itself died before its POST, and because it killed the watcher first, the parent-exit backstop was gone too. The hook now writes the end payload it would have posted into the watcher directory and makes sure a watcher is running; the watcher, a detached process, claims the request by renaming it, drains the log, posts the end behind any spooled backlog, and releases the claim only once it is posted or spooled. Only a session with no log is posted directly from the hook.

Where to look

A resume between hand-over and claim must not end the resumed session: the hook marks the session resumed, a claim whose hand-over predates the mark is dropped and a successor watcher armed, and a watcher's own parent-exit end is withheld while a live Muse process is claimed for the session. The watcher retires its pid file before its last look for a request, so an end written after that look gets a watcher of its own.

Verification

dotnet run --project test/Capacitor.Cli.Tests.Unit -- --treenode-filter "/*/*/<Class>/*": MuseHookCommandTests 51 passed, MuseSessionEndRequestTests 4, WatcherMuseEndHandoffTests 7, AgentSessionsTests 18. Reproduced live on kcap 1.3.0-beta.9 / Muse 1.4.10 with the hook wrapped in a tracing shell: SessionEnd fired, the watcher was killed, the hook never reached its exit line, muse exec returned one second later, and the session stayed active.

📝 Walkthrough

Muse hooks now hand session-end payloads to watchers through request files when a log exists. Watchers claim and post these requests during shutdown. Resume markers and live process claims guide stale-request handling and successor watcher startup.

Changes: Muse Session-End Handoff

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Store and claim session-end requests src/Capacitor.Cli/Harness/Muse/MuseSessionEndRequest.cs, test/Capacitor.Cli.Tests.Unit/Harness/Muse/MuseSessionEndRequestTests.cs	Request files support writing, claiming, unclaiming, release, and deletion. Resume markers record whether a session resumed after handoff. Tests cover request state and timestamps.
Track session claimants and watcher parents src/Capacitor.Cli/AgentSessions.cs, src/Capacitor.Cli/WatcherManager.cs, src/Capacitor.Cli/WatcherSpawnRequest.cs, src/Capacitor.Cli/ProcessWatcherSpawner.cs, test/Capacitor.Cli.Tests.Unit/AgentSessionsTests.cs	AgentSessions exposes live claimant lookup, and watcher spawning accepts an optional parent PID. WatcherManager can claim the current coding-agent process for a session.
Create requests from Muse hooks src/Capacitor.Cli/Commands/Harness/MuseHookCommand.cs, test/Capacitor.Cli.Tests.Unit/Commands/Harness/MuseHookCommandTests.cs	When a log exists and posting is configured, SessionEnd writes a request and ensures a watcher is running. SessionStart and rearm mark the session resumed and handle handed-off requests. Without a log, SessionEnd posts directly.
Claim and post handoffs during watcher shutdown src/Capacitor.Cli/Commands/WatchCommand.cs, test/Capacitor.Cli.Tests.Unit/Commands/WatcherMuseEndHandoffTests.cs	Muse watchers claim requests before or during shutdown. They post handoffs before parent-exit synthesis, release or unclaim requests based on posting outcomes, and arm successor watchers when needed.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 966a3

Session ends can arrive out of order or after a session resumes, potentially leaving session state incorrect. Resolve these handoff-ordering risks before merging.

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 966a3

The handoff improves delivery when the hook is terminated early, but interruption of the background process can strand a pending session-end request. Normal delivery failures have cleanup paths; abandoned ownership does not have an established recovery path. No new cross-account access path was established.

Retained concerns

• Medium · reliability · inferred: The new durable handoff has an incomplete recovery lifecycle. Claiming removes the canonical request by renaming it to an owner-specific file. Owner termination before posting or spooling, or a read failure after rename, leaves that request outside later canonical claim lookups. Normal delivery failures can unclaim the request, but the retiring watcher then exits without scheduling another consumer. Thus the hook can successfully transfer ownership without an established path to eventual completion. This introduces an unrecovered ownership state despite improving the earlier hook-termination failure.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

• inferred — The demonstrated change affects local Muse session lifecycle delivery using the configured server context. Tampering with the new request input requires filesystem access to its location. The inspected flow fixes the outbound route and watcher session identity; cross-account or server-wide authority expansion was not established.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

• observed — The handoff adds another filesystem input before authenticated delivery, but local payload replay already existed through the unchanged lifecycle spool. Likewise, the direct watch command's permissive session-ID handling predates this PR. These facts are counterevidence to treating local request tampering or direct CLI invocation alone as a newly introduced privilege boundary bypass; protection of a separately configured watcher directory remains unestablished.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

• observed — Resume markers protect session-run ownership when successfully written and read. Marker write failures are ignored, and read failures are interpreted as no resume; stale-end suppression therefore remains best-effort rather than a fail-closed ownership guarantee. No security consequence of that lifecycle misclassification was established.

Hardening Proposals

• proposed — Define owner-incarnation-aware recovery for abandoned claims and an explicit retry trigger for returned requests. Recovery should preserve the original end identity, reapply resume invalidation, and account for a POST that succeeded before its owner terminated.

High-Level Assessment

The following are alternative approaches to this PR:

1. Spawn a dedicated end-posting process

• ➕ Could handle session ends independently of watcher liveness.
• ➖ Adds another process and requires coordination with the watcher's final drain and parent-exit POST.

Recommendation: Use the existing detached watcher as the handoff owner: it already knows when the final drain is complete and can replace its synthesized parent-exit end with the hook's payload. Keep the hook-side fallback for sessions without a live watcher rather than introducing a second background process.

PostHandedSessionEndAsync posts the handed Muse end directly, bypassing PostInOrderAsync and the
lifecycle drain that keep an end behind spooled starts and transcript tails. If a session-start or
earlier transcript work is still pending, the end can reach kcap-server first; a later replayed
start then clears the terminal state and makes the session active again.

Evidence

PostInOrderAsync checks spool.HasBacklog(sessionId) and appends an event instead of posting it
when earlier events are waiting, keeping a stranded session-start ahead of the end. The shared drain
orders start, transcript, then end, and the former SessionEnd hook used PostInOrderAsync; the new
watcher path instead makes an independent HTTP POST without checking that backlog. The server
appends a late start and clears terminal state when folding it, explaining how delivery in the wrong
order can reactivate the session.

3. Outages strand Muse sessions ✓ Resolved

SessionEnded event that closes the server-side session.

Evidence

The hook writes a handed request instead of posting the end, and the watcher deletes that request
after calling a POST helper that logs non-success responses and catches delivery exceptions without
reporting failure. The former hook path used PostInOrderAsync/PostOrSpoolAsync to retain failed
lifecycle POSTs in HookSpool, but the watcher does not use that spool. The server records the
terminal event only when its Muse end handler runs, and its session projector sets terminal status
when processing that event.

Duplicate teardown concerns are recognized, but recent precedent treats repeated lifecycle
completion as harmless.

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence

Watcher liveness includes heartbeat freshness, so a running process can fail the hook's probe. The
hook no longer kills it before the inline path, and a surviving watcher can still reach its
synthesized parent-exit POST.

## Issue description
A stale-heartbeat watcher may still be running while the hook independently drains and posts an end.
## Fix Focus Areas

- src/Capacitor.Cli/WatcherManager.cs[248-275]
## Recommended Fix
On the no-healthy-watcher fallback, coordinate with or retire any still-running watcher before inline draining and posting; preserve a fallback if stopping it fails.

10. A test file contains two primary types ✓ Resolved

Description

WatcherCrewEndDecisionTests.cs now declares both WatcherCrewEndDecisionTests and the public
WatcherMuseEndHandoffTests as top-level primary classes. The second class is unrelated to the
existing fixture's hierarchy or registry and breaks the one-primary-type-per-file convention.

Code

test/Capacitor.Cli.Tests.Unit/Commands/WatcherCrewEndDecisionTests.cs[R35-36]

+/// <summary>Which watcher posts the session-end a Muse SessionEnd hook hands over.</summary>
+public class WatcherMuseEndHandoffTests {

● Weak

A recent one-type-per-file finding for test code was rejected as an overly rigid convention.

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence

The existing file defines WatcherCrewEndDecisionTests, and the diff adds a second unrelated public
top-level class named WatcherMuseEndHandoffTests. Neither class forms a narrow allowed hierarchy
or descriptor registry.

11. Muse hook stays outside vendor folder 📘 Rule violation ⌂ Architecture

Description

The changed MuseHookCommand keeps Muse-specific session-start and session-end handoff logic under
src/Capacitor.Cli/Commands/Harness instead of the required src/Capacitor.Cli/Harness/Muse/
directory. The new watcher handoff behavior therefore remains split between the generic commands
tree and the vendor-specific harness directory, making the required harness placement convention
inconsistent.

Code

src/Capacitor.Cli/Commands/Harness/MuseHookCommand.cs[R225-240]

+        var forwarded = new JsonObject {
+            ["hook_event_name"] = "SessionEnd",
+            ["session_id"]      = sessionId,
+            ["reason"]          = TryGetString(node, "reason") is { Length: > 0 } reason ? reason : "other",
+            ["home_dir"]        = home.Path,
+            ["ended_at"]        = clock.Time.GetUtcNow().ToString("O"),
+        };
+
+        if (cwd is not null) forwarded["cwd"] = cwd;
+        if ((hosted.AgentId ?? MuseHostedSessionMarker.TryRead(home, sessionId)?.AgentId) is { } agentHostId)
+            forwarded["agent_host_id"] = agentHostId;
+
+        var log = Paths.ResolveSessionLog(session.ToString("D"), today);
+
+        if (log is not null && watchers.IsWatcherAlive(sessionId)) {

The descriptions match finding 1 (ordered delivery) and finding 3 (durable spooling), not finding 2. The catalog already marks findings 1 and 3 as implemented; finding 2 covers the separate watcher-exit race and is also marked implemented. Please confirm whether you intended findings 1 and 3.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Keep a failed handoff behind the session backlog.

If HookSpool.HasBacklog(sessionId) is true and Append fails, PostHandedSessionEndAsync returns Failed. This direct fallback can then POST session-end before a spooled session-start. A successful fallback also releases the only handoff request. Do not use the direct POST while a backlog exists; retain or unclaim the request for ordered retry.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Make the resume and handed-end decision atomic.

PostHandedSessionEndAsync checks ResumedSince once, then calls PostOrSpoolAsync. Rearm can write the resume marker after that check while delivery is pending. The watcher can then post or spool the earlier run's end after the session resumes.

Coordinate the resume marker with the handoff claim/post, or make the server reject handed ends from before the current run.

Qodo findings 10 and 11:

• 10 (two primary types in one test file): fixed in 966a356, WatcherMuseEndHandoffTests now has its own file.
• 11 (Muse hook outside Harness/Muse/): declined for this change. Every vendor's hook command lives in Commands/Harness/ (Capacitor.Cli.Commands.Harness is one of the namespaces CLAUDE.md lists as following the layout), and MuseHookCommand was already there before this PR; the Muse-specific type this PR adds, MuseSessionEndRequest, is under Harness/Muse/. Moving the hook commands is a layout change for all vendors, not part of a session-end fix.

Understood:

• finding 10 is addressed by commit 966a3561, which moves WatcherMuseEndHandoffTests into its own file.
• finding 11 is intentionally retained: vendor hook commands consistently live under Commands/Harness/, and this PR already places the new Muse-specific helper under Harness/Muse/. The placement rule can be updated or disabled here: https://app.qodo.ai/rules/2762984?state=active

The findings catalog still shows both as open; I have not changed their statuses.
