+ *
+ *   - Claude Code's handler must be `async: true`, or the waiter holds the
+ *     user's turn for its whole wait instead of returning at once. It must
+ *     also declare a `timeout`, because the harness default is 600 s and the
+ *     kill is silent — the backgrounded waiter vanishes and the answer the
+ *     user already gave is never delivered.
+ *   - Codex owns its Stop timeout. Declaring one changes the definition it
+ *     hashes into `trusted_hash`, and an untrusted handler is simply not run.
+ *   - Everything else blocks its turn and needs a ceiling above the wait.
