The known-flaky dynamic pubsub test's 3 fire-and-forget spawn
sites (#477 removal),
- the forever-streaming `publisher` + N `consumer` one-shots now
bg-schedule as `to_actor.run(fn, an=n)` tasks in a local `trio`
task-nursery (`publisher`'s rendezvous name still derives from
`fn.__name__`).
- the simulated user-cancel raise (`KeyboardInterrupt` /
`TooSlowError` params) cancels the task-nursery, each one-shot
reaping its subactor via `to_actor.run()`'s shielded
`Portal.cancel_actor()`; `_run_and_match()`'s existing
`BaseExceptionGroup.split()` walk covers the (possibly nested)
relay shapes unchanged.
- spawns now issue concurrently rather than sequentially —
comment on the fork-backend budget updated to match.
Gate: both params x4 runs green on `trio` + x1 on `mp_spawn`;
full module green.

Final `test_cancellation.py` group of the `run_in_actor` removal
(#477) — cancel-mechanics tests, so clean conversions,
- `test_cancel_via_SIGINT_other_task`: the 3 keep-alive
`run_in_actor(sleep_forever)` one-shots become plain
`start_actor()` daemons (an idle daemon needs no "main" task,
and no longer shares a single dup'd `namesucka` name).
- `spawn_sub_with_sync_blocking_task`: the middle layer's spawn
becomes a blocking `to_actor.run(spin_for, an=an)` which parks
awaiting the sync-sleeping grandchild's result until cancelled
from above.
- `test_cancel_while_childs_child_in_sync_sleep`: the
fire-and-forget middle-actor spawn becomes a bg
`to_actor.run()` task in a local task-nursery; the root's
`assert 0` cancels it, driving the same
graceful-cancel-then-zombie-reap cascade on the sync-blocked
grandchild. The `man_cancel_outer` xfail param is unchanged.
Zero live `run_in_actor()` call-sites remain in this suite.
Gate: full `test_cancellation.py` module green on both `trio`
(18p/1xf) + `mp_spawn` (18p/1xf).

Third `test_cancellation.py` group of the `run_in_actor` removal
(#477),
- `spawn_and_error` fans out each level's erroring one-shots as
concurrent `to_actor.run(fn, an=an)` tasks in a local `trio`
task-nursery (recursing per spawner subactor), as does the
test-body's top-level spawner loop.
- the deterministic exact-breadth nested-BEG shape dies with the
legacy teardown-reap: each level now groups whatever subset of
sub-tree errors relay before the first one's cancel wins, and
a single-member group gets unwrapped by the runtime's own
`collapse_eg()` at every actor boundary — so a fully-raced
tree relays a bare `RemoteActorError` chain.
- loosen the shape walk accordingly: accept a lone
`RemoteActorError` or a 1..breadth group whose members box
`ExceptionGroup` (multi-relay), `AssertionError` (collapsed
leaf chain), `RemoteActorError` (re-boxed collapsed chain) or
`BaseExceptionGroup` (runtime reap-deadline `Cancelled`
upgrade); fold the windows-only tolerances into the same walk.
- raced sibling `trio.Cancelled`s are now ABSORBED by the
task-nursery instead of landing in the group, so the MTF
shape-mismatch xfail should consistently xpass — note added to
drop the marker once CI confirms.
- add an `else: pytest.fail()` so a silently-clean tree can no
longer pass.
Gate: both depths green on `trio` (10 consecutive runs) +
`mp_spawn`.

`test_nested_multierrors`'s backend/depth budget `match` only
carries arms for the `trio` + `main_thread_forkserver` spawn
backends, so running under any other (e.g. `mp_spawn`) leaves
`timeout` unbound and crashes with an `UnboundLocalError` at the
headroom-scaling below. Add default per-depth arms riding the MTF
budgets (same per-spawn round-trip cost class).

Second `test_cancellation.py` group of the `run_in_actor` removal
(#477),
- one-shot subactors now run as concurrent `to_actor.run(fn,
an=an)` tasks in a local `trio` task-nursery, so their errors
raise WHILE the actor-nursery block is open (vs the legacy
teardown-reap) and the first error cancels sibling one-shots.
- wrap the task-nursery in `collapse_eg()` so the deterministic
single-error cases still surface a bare `RemoteActorError`.
- loosen the group-shape assertion: the relay-vs-cancel race
populates anywhere from 1 to `num_actors` `RemoteActorError`s
(the exact-`num_actors` BEG was `run_in_actor`'s
reap-all-at-teardown); group members are always
`RemoteActorError` now since sibling `trio.Cancelled`s are
absorbed by the task-nursery.
- move the daemon-portal call loop inside the task-nursery body
so the sleep-forever one-shot case is cancelled by the daemon
error raise.
- rename the `*run_in_actor*` param ids to `*one_shot*`.
Gate: 6 passed on both `trio` + `mp_spawn` backends.

Append two sections to the ria-removal plan capturing the
2026-07-02 hang episode + the resulting design pivot.
Regression writeup: the full-suite hang on
`test_tractor_cancels_aio` root-caused to the step-A reaper
hoist (`5cd190c5`), not the B2 handler merge. The happy-path
`_reap_ria_portals()` parks unbounded on `wait_for_result()`
after a user `portal.cancel_actor()`; the old spawn-backend
reaper raced `soft_kill()`'s scope-cancel, the hoist dropped
it. Records the `proc.poll()` death-watch fix + why poll (not
the event `wait_func`) bc `soft_kill` already awaits
`proc.sentinel` (a 2nd `wait_readable` -> `BusyResourceError`).
Pause writeup: user's insight that the hoist landed in the
wrong scope — result-waiting belongs in the `to_actor`
one-shot scope (`_invoke_in_subactor()`), beside `an` + a
local task-nursery + cancel-scope, where bounding the wait is
trivial + the hang dissolves. So the poll fix is likely
SUPERSEDED (flagged do-not-land); the anti-hang guard commit
(`d1fb4a1a`) stays red-first per the failing-test convention.

First group of the `test_cancellation.py` `run_in_actor` removal
(#477),
- `test_remote_error` -> blocking `to_actor.run()` (single erroring
one-shot; a bad-arg `TypeError` still relays as a
`RemoteActorError`).
- `test_multierror` -> concurrent fan-out via
`gather_contexts([p.open_context(assert_err_ctx) ...])` over
`start_actor()` portals. NB `gather_contexts` is cancel-on-first
so the 2nd errorer is usually cancelled before relaying its own
exc and the pair collapses to a single `RemoteActorError` (vs the
legacy reap-all-at-teardown `BEG`-of-N) — the assertion now
accepts either shape.
- delete `test_multierror_fast_nursery` — a 25-actor stress test of
`run_in_actor`'s teardown-reap; no analogous surface under the
`to_actor` fan-out.
- add an `assert_err_ctx` `@context` shim for the `open_context`
fan-out.
Remaining `test_cancellation` groups (some_cancels_all, nested,
SIGINT, sync-blocking) still on `run_in_actor` — ported next.

Two sites migrated (#477 removal),
- `test_trynamic_trio`: donny + gretchen each wait on the *other*
to register, so they must run CONCURRENTLY — was two
non-blocking `run_in_actor()`s awaited after; now two
`to_actor.run()` one-shots scheduled into a local `trio`
task-nursery.
- the unregister-on-cancel cluster test: its non-streaming branch
spawned `run_in_actor(trio.sleep_forever)` purely to keep each
subactor alive + registered — a `start_actor()` daemon does that
without a "main" task, so the spawn loop collapses to the same
`start_actor()` the streaming branch already used.
Suite: 16 passed.

`test_multi_actor_subs_arbiter_pub` used `run_in_actor()` to spawn
two forever-ish subscriber actors and hold their portals for a
later `cancel_actor()` (its `.result()` was commented out exactly
because `subs()` never cleanly returns). That deferred-spawn +
cancel shape isn't a blocking `to_actor.run()`, so convert to the
successor primitives (#477 removal),
- `start_actor()` per subscriber — keeps the portal for the
existing `cancel_actor()` teardown,
- run `subs()` on each via a background `Portal.run()` task in a
local `trio` nursery so both subscribe concurrently with the
test's `wait_for_actor` / topic checks,
- each bg runner swallows the `RemoteActorError`/`ContextCancelled`
that `cancel_actor()` relays; a trailing `tn.cancel_scope.cancel()`
drops any lingering runner.

Migrate all 4 sites to blocking `tractor.to_actor.run()` (#477
removal),
- rename the two API-named tests to `test_to_actor_run_*`
(`same_func_in_child`, `can_skip_parent_main_inheritance`) —
they exercise the same spawn / `inherit_parent_main` path via
the successor API.
- the recursive `spawn()` helper drops its white-box
`an._children` / portal-`_peers` asserts (which probed
`run_in_actor`'s portal + nursery-tracking internals);
`to_actor.run()` returns the result and reaps internally, so
keep the user-facing `result == 10` check.
- `test_most_beautiful_word` drops the 2nd `wait_for_result()`
(the legacy result-cache re-fetch) — `to_actor.run()` delivers
the value once, no cache.

First test-file of the #477 `.run_in_actor()` removal (blocking
`to_actor.run()` is the successor; the legacy non-blocking one-shot
is dropped, not replaced). All 9 call-sites migrated,
- blocking result/error/streaming-result tests -> `to_actor.run(fn,
an=an, ...)`; the "streaming" ones stream aio<->trio INSIDE the
subactor so the caller only awaits the final result.
- forever-task + cancel tests (`test_tractor_cancels_aio`,
`test_trio_cancels_aio`) -> `start_actor()` +
`Portal.open_context()` + cancel — can't block on a
never-returning task. Adds a small `sleep_forever_aio_ctx`
`@context` shim.
- greens the red `test_tractor_cancels_aio` anti-hang guard from
the prior commit: under the correctly-scoped API the wait is
bounded by the caller's cancel scope, so the hang is structurally
gone — not patched.

Wrap `test_tractor_cancels_aio`'s `main()` in a
`trio.fail_after(9 * cpu_perf_headroom())` so a wedged remote
runtime can't hang the test forever. This is the blessed
anti-hang guard here bc `pytest-timeout`'s global cap is
intentionally off (it breaks `trio` under the fork backends,
per the `pyproject` NOTE).
The cap is generous + CPU-headroom-scaled bc it's an anti-hang
guard, not a perf assertion. Motivated by the
`._ria_nursery`-removal regression where a wedged ria-reaper
once hung this exact test indefinitely.

Step B2 of the `._ria_nursery` removal (issue #477; see
`ai/conc-anal/ria_nursery_removal_plan.md`). With the 2ndary
nursery gone (step B), the two nested error handlers in
`_open_and_supervise_one_cancels_all_nursery` collapse to one,
- the outer `except (Exception, BaseExceptionGroup,
trio.Cancelled)` existed to catch errors bubbling from the
old `._ria_nursery.__aexit__` reaper-group; that nursery no
longer exists.
- trace shows the outer handler's `raise` was already DEAD: the
inner handler records `errors[uid]` as its first action, so
`errors` is always non-empty by the time anything could reach
the outer handler, and the `finally`'s raise-from-`errors`
always superseded the outer `raise`.
- so fold both into a single `except BaseException as
_scope_err` guarding the lone daemon nursery; the `finally`
(unchanged) still raises the collected `errors` as a single
exc or `BaseExceptionGroup`.
- drop the now-unused `outer_err`/`inner_err` locals.
Behaviour-preserving (net ~30 lines lighter); the big diff is
the one-level de-indent of the handler body. The two remaining
`maybe_wait_for_debugger()` guards collapse to the single
pre-teardown wait.

Step B of the `._ria_nursery` removal (issue #477; see
`ai/conc-anal/ria_nursery_removal_plan.md`). With step A having
rerouted `.run_in_actor()` children onto the daemon nursery,
the 2ndary "run-in-actor" nursery spawns nothing and its stored
ref is never read — pure dead weight,
- collapse the inner `async with trio.open_nursery() as
ria_nursery` layer in
`_open_and_supervise_one_cancels_all_nursery`; `da_nursery` is
now the single nursery for ALL subactors.
- `ActorNursery.__init__` loses the `ria_nursery` param + the
`self._ria_nursery` attr; `start_actor()` loses its `nursery=`
escape-hatch (spawns via `self._da_nursery` directly).
- `._cancel_after_result_on_exit` stays — still the ria-child
discriminator for `_reap_ria_portals()`.
Behavior-preserving: a zero-task `trio.open_nursery()` only adds
a checkpoint. The two error handlers are KEPT (now nested under
the single nursery); merging them changes error/cancel
propagation and is deferred to its own PR (TODO left at the
outer `except`).

Step A of the `._ria_nursery` removal (issue #477 follow-up, see
`ai/conc-anal/ria_nursery_removal_plan.md`): `.run_in_actor()`
children now spawn via the default daemon nursery and their
result-reaping moves up into the `ActorNursery` machinery,
- new `_supervise._reap_ria_portals()`: one
`_spawn.cancel_on_completion()` task per ria child, run AFTER
`._join_procs` is set — replacing the per-child reaper task the
backends formerly spawned (keyed off
`._cancel_after_result_on_exit` membership) which required
routing such children into `._ria_nursery`.
- happy path: reap awaited right after `._join_procs.set()`,
preserving "collect ria results before daemon join" sequencing.
- error path: snapshot ria `(portal, subactor)` pairs (backend
`finally`s pop `._children` as procs reap), `await an.cancel()`,
THEN a 0.5s-bounded reap over the snapshot; anything collectable
is already queued in the local ctx and a parked reaper
self-cleans (`trio.Cancelled` results are never stashed). NB: a
concurrent reap+cancel variant deadlocked `test_multierror` and
a 3s bound blew `test_cancel_while_childs_child_in_sync_sleep`'s
deadline — deats in the plan doc's probe history.
- `spawn/_trio.py` + `spawn/_mp.py`: drop the membership branch,
per-child reaper nursery + now-unused `cancel_on_completion`
imports; the join phase is a bare `soft_kill()`.
`._ria_nursery` is now vestigial (zero spawn users): step B
deletes it + `start_actor()`'s `nursery=` escape hatch and merges
the supervisor's two error handlers.

The fresh reap-coordination maps still used legacy `.uid` tuples even
though process monitors and channels carry complete `Aid` identities.
This extended the legacy key format into new private state.
Key both reap maps by `Aid` and derive `.uid` only when accessing the
existing `_children` map. UUID-based `Aid` hashing lets the subactor
and decoded channel identities resolve the same synchronization state.
Update registration tests to exercise the full identity keys.

`_try_cancel_then_kill()` repeated the same child/tree debugger
predicate before and after its cancel-RPC checkpoint. Inline
duplication obscured that lock state must be sampled at both points.
Factor the predicate into a local `child_in_debug()` sampler. Use it
for initial hard-kill protection and re-run it after the await before
debugger waiting, preserving dynamic lock-state behavior. Keep it
local since one input is supervisor-owned nursery configuration.

`._mark_child_reaped()` previously discarded the reap-request event
without checking that its completion-event peer existed. A one-sided
entry would silently lose process-reap synchronization.
Capture both pops and assert paired presence while allowing the valid
both-absent startup-failure path. Keep an unset request valid because
backend cancellation can reap immediately after registration.
Extend graceful and failed-cancel-ack runtime tests to require all
child and reap mappings empty before `to_actor.run()` returns.

A parent-side ctx cancel timeout previously bounded only the
remote `_cancel_task` ack. Complete-frame `send_all()` shielding
could hold request publication forever when a peer stopped reading.
Compute one absolute deadline and pass it through `._run_from_ns()`
so transport publication and the ack wait consume the same timeout
budget. Add a mock-clock regression which stalls the private RPC
under a nested shield and proves the transaction returns on time.

Target validation moved to a follow-up branch, so the guide should not
claim unstable callable forms are rejected before actor startup.

as portable stable-address forms without promising absent enforcement.

A child could pass the early `.start_actor()` guard, miss the
`.cancel()` child snapshot and register afterward. Its monitor
inherited a reap request without runtime cancellation and could wait
forever.
- publish child/reap events before sampling `_cancel_called`
- make MP abort before `proc.start()` when cancellation won
- kill a Trio child opened after cancellation won registration
- reject starts begun after nursery cancellation is already visible
- add deterministic registration and MP no-start regressions
- drop the touched Trio backend's stale `get_runtime_vars` import

A cancel RPC could stall forever in complete-frame transport
shielding before the peer received it, bypassing the outer ack
timeout and blocking graceful supervision.
- thread one absolute deadline from `Portal.cancel_actor()` through
the private `Start` publication path
- force-close a partial-frame stream before releasing its send lock
- keep ordinary sends unbounded and preserve pending cancellation
- document the current `Start -> StartAck -> CancelAck` exchange and
link the dedicated `Cancel` msg follow-up in #506
- cover partial publication and the shared send/ack timeout budget

The guides described every placement as spawn-run-reap and omitted
the trampoline allowlist required when reusing an existing actor.

The frame-publication shield added in `88a23449` checks for
pending cancellation only after a successful write. If actor
teardown closes the stream first, `ClosedResourceError` escaped
as `TransportClosed` and could defeat the caller's cancel scope.
Check for pending cancellation on the transport-error path before
normalizing the close. Genuine stream errors retain their existing
translation when no cancellation is active.
The cancellation-first path can swap which nested debugger
intermediary renders as the immediate source vs. relay. Keep
assertions over both actor levels while accepting either valid role.

The Darwin-only debugger skip in `49fc92b0` passed the raw
`CI=true` env string to `skipif`, so `pytest` evaluated `true`
as Python source and failed at setup instead of skipping the
issue #320 node.
Cast `_ci_env` through `bool()` so the marker always receives
a boolean while retaining Linux coverage.

The rendered guides and executable examples still taught the legacy
`ActorNursery.run_in_actor()` result-portal model even though #481
adds its blocking, linked-context replacement.
Deats,
- migrate one-shots to direct results through `to_actor.run()`
- preserve named target inputs with `functools.partial()`
- use daemon actors where reciprocal dialogs need longer lifetimes
- link the new API from core, asyncio and clustering references
- retain only explicit legacy/removal notes

Cancellation inside `send_all()` can publish a partial frame. Closing
the actor-wide stream preserved framing but destroyed every context
on the channel and replaced primary errors with `TransportClosed`.
Deats,
- shield complete frame publication, then deliver pending
cancellation
- keep the shared channel reusable after context-local cancellation
- absorb transport closure while reporting an unshippable overrun
- cover mid-frame cancellation and failed overrun error shipment
This deliberately defers cancellation until the current frame write
resolves; channel teardown remains the fallback for broken peers.

Treat `runtime_kwargs` as provided whenever it is not `None`.
Previously an empty dict bypassed placement validation and was
silently ignored when `an` or `portal` selected an existing runtime.
Reject both placement modes before actor startup for empty and
configured runtime kwargs while preserving empty-dict use when
`to_actor.run()` owns its private runtime.

Pass target inputs positionally and normalize every retained
`functools.partial()` layer, including Python 3.14 Placeholder
binding. Validate the complete target signature before startup.
Route each ordinary async fn through a static `@context` endpoint
so remote results, errors and caller cancellation remain linked.
Send namespace and function components separately, then resolve
through `Actor._get_rpc_func()` so the RPC module allowlist remains
authoritative. Retain client-created `NamespacePath` refs so
`to_tuple()` does not re-import their callable.
Owned actors enable the endpoint's `__name__` directly. Keep
`to_actor.MODULE` as the importer-facing alias used by caller-owned
portals while retaining the target module's authorization boundary.
Cover all placement modes, nested partials, argument collisions,
linked cancellation, remote errors and authorization failures.
