Adoption set a shard to Starting and started a liveness poll, and that was all. Nothing health-checked it, so nothing ever moved it to Ready. The control plane then waited out the profile's startup timeout and killed a perfectly healthy engine so it could start an identical one. An agent restart exists precisely so that engines are not interrupted. It was costing every model on the node a full reload, minutes of it, which is the failure adoption was written to prevent. Measured on node05 while deploying today's other changes: the engine answered /health the whole time and the replica sat in Starting for three minutes until the timeout reaped it. I had seen this earlier in the session and worked around it by killing the engine to force a clean restart, which made the symptom go away and left the cause in place. An adopted shard now takes the same two paths a freshly started one does: a rank that serves HTTP is health-checked, a worker is judged by staying alive. Run in the background, because recovery happens before the agent connects and a slow check must not delay registration. An engine that will not answer is left for the control plane to replace rather than killed locally, which would race the decision it already has a timeout for.
