Gud Boi 28e6269a35 Type the remaining niche examples
Finish the examples-typing sweep with the last non-docs-visible
scripts: `-> None` on the two `trio/` behavior-demo mains (plus a
`trio.TaskStatus` on `hold_lock_forever`) and nursery/portal typing
on `integration/mpi4py/inherit_parent_main.py`.

Leaves `concurrent_futures_primes` (a verbatim stdlib baseline) and
`integration/open_context_and_sleep` (its tractor nursery is
commented out) as-is, and the paren-group `trio.open_nursery()`
bindings unannotated (no clean spot for a preceding annotation).
Completes the examples-typing bullet in #472.

Gud Boi 67fa97dbaf Type the docs-visible `examples/` scripts
Type the runtime objects (`ActorNursery`, `Portal`, `Context`,
`trio.Nursery`) + fn signatures across the 16 highest-visibility,
`literalinclude`-d `examples/` scripts, matching the front-page
`we_are_processes.py` style — so the rendered guides show typed
usage throughout, not just on the landing snippet.

Spans the 3 quickstart-backing scripts + `single_func`,
`remote_error_propagation`, `multiple_streams_one_portal`,
`quick_cluster`, `service_discovery`, `service_daemon_discovery`,
`asynchronous_generators`, `nested_actor_tree`,
`concurrent_actors_primes`, `streaming_broadcast_fanout`,
`rpc_bidir_streaming`, `infected_asyncio_echo_server`,
`typed_payloads`.

Annotation-only (no renames/logic changes); each runs green and the
docs build stays warning-free. Part of the examples-typing bullet
in #472.

Gud Boi 545142933e Add basic typing to the `debugging/` examples
Sweep the `examples/debugging/` set for basic typing: add `-> None`
to all 16 bare `async def main()`s and annotate the clean
single-line `open_nursery()` bindings as `tractor.ActorNursery`.

Kept to the unambiguous, runtime-safe cases (these breakpoint/crash
demos can't be run headless); the heterogeneous
multi-line/paren-group nursery bindings + `current_actor()` returns
are left for a later pass. Continues the examples-typing bullet in
#472.

Gud Boi 5067917b9f Add a dedicated-registrar example + discovery guide
Add a runnable `examples/dedicated_registrar.py` + a "A dedicated
registrar" subsection in `guide/discovery.rst` demoing the
registrar decoupled from any app tree's root: boot a bare
`tractor.run_daemon([], registry_addrs=[...])` as its own process
(a root actor that does nothing but hold the registry), point the
app tree at the same `registry_addrs`, and discover a service
*through* that external registrar.

This is the buildable-today form of the #472
"Registrar-as-subsystem (not the root actor)" bullet. Two
constraints are called out inline as follow-ups:
`enable_transports` is single-proto per runtime (no multi-backend
registrar yet), and a registrar can only be a root (no `actor_cls`
hook on `start_actor()` to spawn one as a subactor).

Gud Boi 346878219c Expand caps-based-msging docs w/ #365, #376 + tests
The "Toward capability-based msging" section only pointed at the
`#196`/`#36` epics. Fold in the concrete recent state,

- `#365` as the most recent step: driving the whole `pld_spec` off
  plain type-annotations (e.g. annotating a context's
  `open_stream()` with `msgspec.Struct` subtypes) rather than
  explicit `pld_spec=` kwargs.
- clarify that the decorator-level `@tractor.context(pld_spec=...)`
  is already the higher-level path (vs the lower-level
  `tractor.msg._ops.limit_plds()` escape hatch), pointing at
  `tests/msg/test_pldrx_limiting.py` + `test_ext_types_msgspec.py`
  which exercise both.
- `#376` (from @guilledk, `auto_codecs` branch) as the drafted
  public factory API for the `enc_hook`/`dec_hook` pair (today only
  reachable via `tractor.msg._ops`).

Addresses the caps-based-msging bullet in #472.

Gud Boi 203a0f7e1f Add `.trionics.start_or_cancel()` test suite
Resolve #474 with a new `tests/trionics/test_taskc.py` (9
tests) covering the `trio.Nursery.start()` wrapper landed in
PR #464, incl. the `modden.runtime.progman.open_wks()` use
case dug out as a minimal repro.

Deats,
- the lossy `RuntimeError('child exited without calling
  task_status.started()')` only fires when the child absorbs
  its ambient cancel pre-`.started()` (graceful-teardown
  pattern); a well-behaved child surfaces `Cancelled` direct
  from `.start()` on `trio` 0.29 - verified empirically 1st.
- `test_sibling_err_not_masked_by_startup_rte`: the `modden`
  case; ONLY the root-cause sibling `ValueError` escapes the
  nursery with the wrapper vs. bare-`.start()`'s lossy
  riding-along startup-RTE noise.
- `test_pure_oob_cancel_not_morphed_to_rte`: plain ancestor
  `cs.cancel()` exits clean vs. bare's eg-wrapped RTE.
- `test_genuine_startup_rte_still_raised`: sans cancellation
  the protocol-bug RTE re-raises same as bare.
- `test_childs_own_rte_never_demoted_to_cancel`: exact-msg +
  `isinstance`-guard regression cover; a child's own
  `RuntimeError('never got started!')`/`RuntimeError(1234)`
  never demotes to a `Cancelled`.
- `test_started_value_and_args_passthru`: positional args,
  `name=` and `.started()`-value forwarding.

Also,
- `use_start_or_cancel=False` params pin upstream `trio`'s
  current lossy behaviour as wart-documentation: a break on
  a `trio` upgrade likely means new upstream porcelain and
  the wrapper deserves a re-audit.
- verified 0 flakes over 50 hammer runs + 2 impl mutations
  each caught by exactly the targeted tests.

root 0e11ff7e9d Guard hot-path log calls to avoid payload rendering when disabled
Wrap `log.transport()` in `Channel.send()` and `log.runtime()` in
`PldRx.decode_pld()` with `log.at_least_level()` checks so that
expensive `pformat(payload)` / `repr(msg)` / `repr(pld)` calls are
skipped entirely when the respective log level is not active.

Previously the f-string arguments were eagerly evaluated before being
passed to the log method, even though `StackLevelAdapter.log()` would
then discard the message internally via its own `isEnabledFor()` check.
On high-frequency IPC paths this caused `pformat` to dominate CPU
usage (~60-70 %) as reported in #455.

This also restores the full diagnostic output (msg type, decoded
payload) that was temporarily commented out in 0373164 as a stopgap.

Gud Boi 51326f4b7a Fix uds `get_random` reaper-regex break (+2 nits)
Copilot's 2nd-pass review (PR #468) caught a regression I landed in
the uds fix: `UDSAddress.get_random()` put the per-call token AFTER
`@{pid}` (`no_runtime_*@{pid}.{token}.sock`), which breaks the
`tractor._testing._reap` matcher
`^(?P<name>.+)@(?P<pid>\d+)\.sock$` — so no-runtime orphan socks
stopped matching and never got reaped/attributed. Move the token
INTO the name (`{prefix}.{token}@{pid}.sock`) so the canonical
`@{pid}.sock` suffix stays intact for both that regex and the
`spawn._reap` reconstruction; also bump the token to 8 hex chars.

Also two robustness nits from the same review,
- `tests.conftest._measure_sustained_headroom()`: guard `frac <= 0`
  before `1./frac` — a 0/parked-core freq read would
  `ZeroDivisionError`, get swallowed by the broad `except` into a
  1.0 (no-throttle), defeating the probe on the exact broken box it
  should flag; read 0 as max throttle.
- `scripts/cpu-perf-check`: mark the burn procs `daemon=True` and
  wrap sampling in `try/finally` so a Ctrl-C / error reaps them
  instead of leaving stray CPU hogs.

Gud Boi 63498a80c2 Use `cpu_perf_headroom()` at remaining deadlines
Finish TODO #2 from PR #468: the last raw `cpu_scaling_factor()`
call-sites still used the static-only check (blind to the
sustained-load power-cap). Point them at the `cpu_perf_headroom()`
SUPERSET — it calls `cpu_scaling_factor()` internally + the
session-cached throttle probe, so it's always >= the old factor
(never LESS headroom, so CI stays green).

Migrated,
- `test_spawning`: the `fail_after(1 * ...)` smoke deadline
  (#465-added).
- `test_inter_peer_cancellation`: `this_fast` budget.
- `test_docs_examples`: example-run `timeout`.
- `test_resource_cache`: fan-out `timeout`.

`test_cancellation` already used `cpu_perf_headroom()`; only its
explanatory comments still name the static helper.

Gud Boi 09c50f495d Uniquify no-runtime UDS `get_random()` paths
W/o a live runtime `get_random()` named UDS socks purely by
`(prefix, pid)`, so two calls in one proc returned the SAME
`no_runtime_*@{pid}.sock` — the 2nd `.bind()` then tripped
`EADDRINUSE`. Append a per-call `uuid4().hex[:6]` token so
each call yields a distinct sockpath.

This fixes the 3 `tests.discovery.test_tpt_bind_addrs` uds
failures (one registrar + disjoint-bind, two non-registrar
binds) where `reg_addr` and a "random" bind addr aliased —
the uds CI job's only red, surfaced when this branch rebased
onto the newer base that carries those tests.

Scoped to the no-runtime branch ON PURPOSE: the runtime
`{name}@{pid}` convention stays deterministic so
`spawn._reap.unlink_uds_bind_addrs()` can still reconstruct
+ unlink a SIGKILL'd subactor's sock (#454).

Deats,
- `_uds.py`: add `uuid4` import + token in the no-runtime
  branch
- `_testing.addr`: tighten `get_rando_addr()` docstring re the
  intra-proc per-call token (not just pid-keyed namespacing)

Gud Boi 5b1a9edeb3 Fix `_burn` bigint blowup, ctx-mgr `_read_mhz`
Both `_burn()` impls (the `cpu-perf-check` script + the
`_measure_sustained_headroom()` probe in `tests.conftest`) grew `x`
~x**2 per iter, so the loop quickly went bigint alloc/mul-bound — a
noisy CPU load + needless memory across N procs. Mask each step to
64-bit for a steady, fixed-width ALU burn (still pegs every core,
which is all the freq probe needs).

Also, `_read_mhz()` opened the sysfs freq files without a ctx-mgr;
`with open(...)` so the FD closes deterministically (matches the
script's own `_read()`).

Gud Boi 707caf63d1 Use `cpu_perf_headroom()` for timing-test deadlines
`cpu_perf_headroom()` is a strict SUPERSET of `cpu_scaling_factor()`
— it folds in static cpu-freq scaling + the slow-CI bump AND the
sustained-load power-cap throttle probe. Point the timing-deadline
call sites at it so they're robust to sustained throttling too (the
gremlin behind mass `trio` deadline-miss flakes),

- `test_legacy_one_way_streaming`: `time_quad_ex` cancel-deadline +
  `test_a_quadruple_example`'s `this_fast` smoke bound.
- `test_cancellation`: `test_cancel_via_SIGINT_other_task` +
  `test_fast_graceful_cancel_*` deadlines.

`cpu_perf_headroom >= cpu_scaling_factor` always, so never less
headroom (CI stays green); `cpu_scaling_factor()` remains the
internal static component.

Gud Boi 0ad5261905 Add `cpu-perf-check` sustained-throttle gate script
Standalone CLI companion to `cpu_perf_headroom()` (20cb99ec): idle
freq snapshots LIE — every static knob (`governor`, EPP,
`platform_profile`, `scaling_max_freq`) can read "performance"
while a firmware/EC power cap (AMD PPT/STAPM + friends) clamps the
package to ~30% the moment a sustained multi-core load lands,
masquerading as a `trio`-backend deadline-miss "regression" on
byte-identical code.

Deats,
- burns every core for `CPU_PERF_SECS` (default 4s) and samples the
  ACHIEVED `scaling_cur_freq` steady-state (post boost-ramp) vs the
  package max ceiling,
- exits 0 when the sustained fraction clears
  `CPU_PERF_HEALTHY_FRAC` (default 0.45), 1 when throttled — so it
  gates a suite run: `scripts/cpu-perf-check && pytest tests/ ...`,
- prints the static knobs first (to show they all read fine) then
  the remediation list on failure (`platform_profile` bounce, USB-C
  PD replug, `ryzenadj`, reboot) w/ the key reminder: do NOT bump
  test budgets — the box is slow, not the code.

Gud Boi 333af7debd Add `cpu_perf_headroom()` for throttle-aware deadlines
Mass `trio` deadline-miss failures on byte-identical code turned
out to be a firmware/EC power-cap (AMD PPT/STAPM) clamping the
all-core sustained clock while every static knob (`governor`,
`scaling_max_freq`, EPP, platform-profile) still read "performance"
— invisible to the existing `cpu_scaling_factor()` check. See
`scripts/cpu-perf-check` + the
`ai/conc-anal/trio_033_cancel_cascade_slowdown_depth3_issue.md`
notes.

Deats,
- add `_measure_sustained_headroom()` to `tests/conftest.py`: a
  one-shot ~0.9s all-core burn (explicit `fork`-ctx `mp` procs)
  sampling achieved-vs-max freq AFTER the boost window; under a 0.6
  gate it returns the full inverse fraction (capped 4x), else 1.0;
  best-effort 1.0 on non-linux or any error,
- add `cpu_perf_headroom()`: `max()` of the static scaling factor
  and the (session-cached) sustained probe,
- inflate deadline budgets by it in `test_dynamic_pub_sub`, both
  `test_clustering` cases, the
  `test_multi_nested_subactors_error_through_nurseries` pexpect
  waits + `test_nested_multierrors`,
- `xfail(strict=False)` `test_nested_multierrors` depth=3 under
  throttle: the deep tree trips tractor's INTERNAL reap deadlines
  (`soft_kill`/`hard_kill` `terminate_after=1.6`) minting a
  `Cancelled` inside the runtime — not fixable by test-budget
  inflation; auto-clears once the box un-throttles.

Docs (vibed) for serious: real documentation with a modern theme
2026-06-29 16:22:31 -04:00
Gud Boi ca78eb2bed Skip the UDS example on macOS CI
`uds_transport_actor_tree.py` (new in 759d46dd) reliably fails on
macOS CI with a bare `returncode 1`. The example forces
`enable_transports=['uds']`, and UDS-on-macOS is otherwise
un-exercised by the matrix (there's no `tpt_proto=uds` macOS job),
so it's the first thing to surface a macOS UDS-path issue.

It passes cleanly on Linux, and the peer-cred paths are already
platform-guarded + graceful (`get_peer_info`/SO_PEERCRED on linux
vs `get_peer_pid`/LOCAL_PEERPID elsewhere) - so the crash is deeper
in the macOS UDS stack. The test swallows the subproc stderr (only
re-raises when the last line has "Error"), so the exact failure
can't be pinned from CI logs; needs a macOS box to root-cause.

Skip it on `_friggin_macos and ci_env` (same shape as the existing
`full_fledged_streaming_service` skip) so #460 lands green; the
macOS UDS root-cause is a follow-up.

Gud Boi 43216c8d4a Show error/cancel teardowns in the `Context` diagram
The `context_handshake` sequence diagram only showed the graceful
`Return` ending - underselling the whole SC pitch (errors + cancels
propagate *both* ways across the wire). Add a "... or, instead of a
graceful Return" group with the non-graceful endings,

- parent-initiated: `ctx.cancel()` (or a parent-side error) ->
  child relays `Error: ContextCancelled`,
- child-initiated: child ships `Error: <raised>` (or
  `ContextCancelled`).

Labelled `Error: ...` since `ContextCancelled` is an exception that
rides inside an `Error` wire msg, not its own msg type - keeping
the diagram's wire-level labels honest. Re-render the committed
`_diagrams/context_handshake.svg` fallback (CI has no `d2` bin) to
match.

Also cache-bust d2 images in `d2diagrams.py`: sphinx tags css/js
with `?v=<hash>` but not images, so an edited diagram kept serving
the browser's stale copy at the stable `_images/<stem>.svg` url
(cost us a manual hard-refresh). Hash each rendered svg + rewrite
only the d2 `<img src>` to `...svg?v=<hash8>` via the
`html-page-context` hook - content-addressed, so unchanged diagrams
keep their query.

Gud Boi 23edf03563 Slim README to lean on the hosted docs
Continuing the README slim-down: stop inlining content that now
lives (and renders better) on the GitHub Pages site, and just
point readers there.

- "Where do i start" drops the SC reading-list links in favor of
  a single nudge to the docs quickstart.
- "Example codez" drops the full `we_are_processes.py` listing -
  keep the one-minute pitch prose + the docs/examples links.
- "What's on the TODO" collapses the inline bullet list down to a
  link to the docs roadmap ("what the future holds").

Also,
- prune the now-dead RST link targets (`blog post`, `trio docs`,
  `SC`, `libdill-docs`, `async sandwich`, `messages`, ..).
- swap the `|docs|` badge from readthedocs over to the GitHub
  Pages `docs.yml` action badge + `goodboy.github.io` target.

Gud Boi c028e03d32 Update quickstart `we_are_processes` walkthrough
The reworked `we_are_processes.py` (now `Context`-API based) prints
different stdout, so the hardcoded expected-output block went
stale: swap the old `Yo, i'm 'worker_N'...` / "self-destruct in 1
sec" lines for the real run - "self-destruct in 2s.." then the
per-worker `Started ep-task in subactor,` / `N::'worker_N'@<pid>`
blocks.

Also retell the prose to match: subs spawn concurrently from bg
`trio` tasks, each runs a `@tractor.context` `endpoint()` that
`ctx.started()`-hands its name + pid back through
`Portal.open_context()`, then parks in `trio.sleep_forever()`
before the root crashes + the tree is reaped.

Gud Boi 274cab948c Slim the README to one `Context` showcase
The README inlined six example scripts; per our own "point at
`examples/`, don't duplicate" philosophy that's a lot of rot
surface. Drop all but the showcase and rework it onto the modern
`Context` API to mirror the docs landing + `we_are_processes.py`:
spawn a subactor per core, `open_context()` each, crash the root,
reap the tree.

Replace the rest with a short "want more?" pointer to the docs site
+ the `examples/` dir (where the debugger, streaming, cancellation,
`asyncio`, msging + cluster demos all live, CI-run).

Also tidy a few nits while here,
- fix the title typo "structurred" -> "structured",
- close the unterminated quote in the `UV_PROJECT_ENVIRONMENT`
  install snippet,
- add the blank line a nested `trionics` bullet list needs so the
  PyPI long-desc (this file) renders as valid RST.

Gud Boi c3e5ed1bd7 Rework landing example onto the `Context` API
`run_in_actor()` is slated to become a hilevel wrapper
(`runtime/_supervise.py` "TODO: DEPRECATE THIS"), so the showcase
`we_are_processes.py` shouldn't lead with it. Move it to the modern
API: each `worker_<i>` subactor runs a `@tractor.context`
`endpoint()` that `started()`-hands its name + pid back over
`Portal.open_context()` and parks; the root sleeps then raises on
purpose so the runtime reaps the whole tree (zero zombies).

The subs spawn concurrently from bg `trio.Task`s so each child's
cold `import tractor` (~0.4s, see #470) overlaps instead of
stacking; a comment flags the coming `main_thread_forkserver`
backend (#463) which'll make serial spawns cheap enough to just
loop.

Match the landing prose to the snippet — name the `Context` +
`started()` handshake it now leads with.

Also, document `--watch examples` on the `sphinx-autobuild` cmds so
edits to `literalinclude`-d example scripts (which live outside
`docs/`) live-reload too.

The gh-pages deploy workflow already exists (build on PR + main,
deploy on main push via `actions/deploy-pages`); wire up the sphinx
side,

- `sphinx.ext.githubpages`: emits a `.nojekyll` so Pages serves the
  `_static/` + `_images/` dirs (Jekyll otherwise drops `_`-prefixed
  paths, breaking every asset),
- `html_baseurl`: the canonical site root
  (`https://goodboy.github.io/tractor/`) for the `<link
  rel="canonical">` + `og:url` tags.

The one remaining (one-time, manual) step is the repo setting:
Settings -> Pages -> Source = "GitHub Actions".

Gud Boi 46197f00c3 Redesign the landing hero + nav branding
Rework the landing top into a left-anchored hero row and match the
navbar branding to it.

- `index.rst` + new `tractor_hero.html`: an inline-svg hero
  (`[logo] distributed structured concurrency`) with a full-width
  sub-tagline, plus a single screen-reader-only `<h1>` ("tractor")
  so the section headings become proper `<h2>` (was 4x `<h1>`), and
  the intro prose reflowed into 3 bullets,
- `conf.py`: a `logo.text` ("tractor") beside the navbar wireframe,
  polars-style,
- `custom.css`: the hero-row layout (logo + tagline + sub-line,
  single row on desktop / stack on mobile), the navbar brand styled
  like the centered nav tabs with `display:inline-block` to kill
  the parent link's propagated hover-underline, and smaller landing
  section headings w/ their `tl;dr` margin-note pulled level.

The hero linework stays `fill: currentColor` so the whole thing
flips with the light/dark toggle.

- new `notes_to_self/svgtool.py`: a headless-firefox svg helper
  (`colors`/`recolor`/`preview`/`page`); its `page --theme
  dark|light` injects a `localStorage` pin so a pydata `auto`-mode
  build renders its dark variant in a screenshot — the only way to
  verify theme-adaptive bits headlessly,
- `howtodocs.md`: a "Tweaking the logo" table (which file +
  `color:` knob per context) and an `svgtool` section that breaks
  down the `--theme` trick for the sphinx-rusty.

Gud Boi 1f84d5f529 Adopt the wireframe logo in navbar + README
Carry the landing hero's transparent-faces wireframe look to the
two other logo contexts. An `<img>`-embedded svg can't read the
page CSS (no `currentColor`), so the colours are baked per target,

- navbar: 2 variants (`tractor_logo_nav_light.svg` near-black
  lines, `…_nav_dark.svg` near-white) wired via the pydata
  `logo.image_light`/`image_dark` opts so it swaps with the theme
  toggle, matching the hero,
- README: `tractor_logo_wire.svg` — one neutral-grey, with INLINE
  fills (no `<style>`) so it reads on both GitHub light + dark and
  survives GitHub's svg sanitiser.

Faces are `fill: none` throughout; the filled `tractor_logo_side`
stays the recolour source + favicon.

Gud Boi eb87235835 Make the hero logo a theme-adaptive wireframe
Swap the landing-page hero from a static `<img>` (white-faced —
which glared as a light box on the dark theme) to an INLINE svg
whose linework uses `fill: currentColor` and whose faces are
transparent. The wireframe now inherits the theme text colour
(`svg.hero-logo { color: var(--pst-color-text-base); }`) and the
page background shows through, so it flips correctly with the
light/dark toggle.

- `tractor_logo_hero.html`: the inline svg partial (`.st0` ->
  `currentColor`, `.st1` -> `none`), `.. raw:: html :file:`-d into
  `index.rst`,
- the shared `tractor_logo_side.svg` is untouched here (navbar +
  favicon still ride it).

--host 0.0.0.0` (live-reload) or `python -m http.server --bind
0.0.0.0` (static) — so a peer on your subnet can hit
`http://<lan-ip>:8000` (`hostname -I` prints the ip).

Verified a LAN-ip `curl` returns 200 + the socket binds `0.0.0.0`;
includes a trusted-LAN-only caveat since it's an unauthenticated

Gud Boi 888162ea0c Fix informal-RST in docstrings for clean autodoc
The new `api/` reference pages surfaced 22 docutils warnings from
informal reST in public docstrings; fix the markup so the docs
build is warning-free (24 -> 0), clearing the path to a future
`-W`/`nitpicky` flip in CI.

Deats (docstring content only; no code/signature changes),
- give bullet lists a blank line + base-column indent (`Context`,
  `Context.cancel_called`/`.cancelled_caught`/ `.outcome`,
  `ActorNursery.cancel_called`, `query_actor`,
  `open_crash_handler`),
- demote the under-short `Behaviour:` underline in `Context.cancel`
  to a `**bold**` label,
- close an unbalanced backtick in the `wait_for_actor` summary and
  use the `` `role`\ s `` escaped-plural idiom where a role was
  pluralized (`gather_contexts`, `mk_pdb`, `MsgCodec`, msg `Error`,
  `open_context_from_portal`),
- make the `|_` method-tree in `ContextCancelled.canceller` a
  literal block (the bare `|` was read as a substitution ref),
- same blank-line fix for the `#318` entry in `NEWS.rst`.

Gud Boi 5bc15497b1 Harden the `.. d2::` directive render path
Three robustness fixes surfaced by the PR #460 self-review,

- a render that's *attempted and fails* (a `d2` bin is present but
  errors on the source) now raises a docutils error instead of
  silently serving the stale committed SVG — so `sphinx-build -W`
  fails on a broken `.d2` edit. The no-binary case stays a quiet
  committed-SVG fallback.
- render into a sibling temp-file then `os.replace()` so a
  failed/torn render can never clobber a good committed SVG.
- guard against 2 distinct `.d2` sources colliding on a single
  `_diagrams/<stem>.svg` within a build.

`render_svg()` now returns a `RenderResult` tristate that `run()`
maps to error / raw-source-literal / image.
