📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe child-process reactor now defers lifecycle processing after ChangesChild-process event ordering
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to The ordering fix can indefinitely delay data, exit, and close events when spawn handlers create more children, retaining child-process resources and potentially hanging applications. The regression test may also miss this failure under load, so the change is not ready to merge. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
Prevent lifecycle-event starvation.
A spawn listener can create another child. The next pump then has a non-empty to_spawn list and returns again. This repeats indefinitely while Phase A and Phase B never process earlier children.
Queued data, exit, and close events can remain pending. The registry entries and live-handle counts then cannot be released. Defer lifecycle delivery per newly spawned child instead of bypassing all pending lifecycle work whenever any child needs spawn.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Wait for close before printing the recorded order.
The fixed timeout does not prove that the child completed. Under load, this can print a partial sequence and miss the terminal-event regression. Create a close promise when listeners are registered, await it after the setImmediate checkpoint, then print order.
Proposed fix
child.on("exit", () => order.push("exit"));
child.on("close", () => order.push("close"));
+const closed = new Promise<void>((resolve) => child.once("close", resolve));
...
-await new Promise<void>((resolve) => setImmediate(resolve));
+await new Promise<void>((resolve) => setImmediate(resolve));
order.push("immediate");
