+/**
+ * state-machine-runtime-failures.test.ts — Tests for auto-loop runtime failures,
+ * infrastructure errors, stuck detection, session management, merge conflicts,
+ * concurrent access, and race conditions.
+ *
+ * These tests use mocked LoopDeps and AutoSession to exercise the auto-loop
+ * error handling paths without requiring real LLM sessions or network access.
+ *
+ * Coverage gaps filled:
+ * 1. Infrastructure error detection and immediate stop (ENOSPC, ENOMEM, etc.)
+ * 2. Consecutive error graduated recovery (1st → retry, 2nd → cache flush, 3rd → stop)
+ * 3. Stuck detection: same error repeated, same unit 3x, oscillation A↔B
+ * 4. Session lock validation: compromised, pid-mismatch, missing-metadata
+ * 5. Session creation timeout (NEW_SESSION_TIMEOUT_MS = 30s)
+ * 6. MergeConflictError stops auto-loop
+ * 7. Max iteration safety valve
+ * 8. s.active race: pause signal during unit execution
+ * 9. Filesystem mutation during dispatch cycle
+ * 10. Worktree disappearance detection
