jedarden 098283c197 docs(bf-68nl): verify stream-json reader join on all exit paths
Add verification note confirming that the stream-json reader thread is
properly joined on all exit paths (success, timeout, interrupted, child
exit, early error).

All exit paths in session.rs correctly:
- Send drain signal and join (success, early error)
- Drop handle and join (timeout, interrupted, child exit)

Tests pass (90 passed).

Verification of stream-json reader join on all exit paths

Task (bf-68nl)

Ensure the stream-json reader thread is properly joined on all exit paths (success, timeout, interrupted, error).

Verification Status: COMPLETE ✓

The stream-json reader join implementation is already present in src/session.rs on all exit paths:

Exit paths verified

  1. Success path (FifoPayload) - Lines 442-446

    • Sends drain signal: handle.drain_tx.send(())
    • Joins thread: handle.join_handle.join()
  2. Timeout path - Lines 404-407

    • Drops handle without sending: drop(handle.drain_tx)
    • Joins thread: handle.join_handle.join()
  3. Interrupted path - Lines 469-472

    • Drops handle without sending: drop(handle.drain_tx)
    • Joins thread: handle.join_handle.join()
  4. Child exit path - Lines 460-463

    • Drops handle without sending: drop(handle.drain_tx)
    • Joins thread: handle.join_handle.join()
  5. Early error path (no transcript path) - Lines 425-428

    • Sends drain signal: handle.drain_tx.send(())
    • Joins thread: handle.join_handle.join()

Acceptance criteria met

  • ✓ Drain signal and join on success path (FifoPayload)
  • ✓ Drop-and-join on timeout path
  • ✓ Drop-and-join on interrupted path
  • ✓ Drop-and-join on child exit path
  • ✓ All paths join the thread before returning
  • ✓ Code compiles and tests pass (90 passed)

Implementation details

The design distinguishes between two types of exit paths:

  1. Graceful exits (success, early error): Send drain signal () via channel to allow the reader thread to finish processing remaining output before exiting.

  2. Immediate exits (timeout, interrupted, child exit): Drop the sender handle without sending, which causes the channel to close immediately and the reader thread exits without waiting for more data.

In both cases, join_handle.join() is called to wait for the thread to finish before proceeding.
