inside that `saveAll` leaves all three layers (catalog, lockfile, FS)
in their pre-rm state — a retry is a clean re-rm.
+The cross-process composition of these per-extension atomicity claims —
+that `saveAll`'s SQLite WAL transaction, the lockfile advisory-lock retry,
+and the asymmetric ordering above all hold under concurrent invocation
+from independent OS processes against the same repository — is verified
+by `integration/lifecycle_concurrent_stress_test.ts` (swamp-club#254). The
+test runs 50 iterations of four concurrent `swamp` subprocesses each
+(`extension pull` × 2 distinct extensions, `extension rm`, `extension
+update`) and asserts catalog↔lockfile↔FS bijection, well-formed lockfile
+JSON, no `DuplicateTypeError` leakage across distinct fixture types, and
+no lockfile-retry-budget or SQLite-busy exhaustion at iteration end.

+/**
+ * Cross-process concurrency stress for the W2 lifecycle services
+ * (InstallExtensionService / RemoveExtensionService / UpgradeExtensionService).
+ *
+ * Closes the test gap from swamp-club#254. Mirrors the structure of the
+ * swamp-club#234 race regression at integration/data_delete_test.ts (the only
+ * other cross-process stress test in this suite).
+ *
+ * What it verifies
+ * ----------------
+ * The W2 lifecycle services claim per-extension atomicity under cross-process
+ * concurrency: `saveAll` is one SQLite transaction with WAL on, lockfile
+ * mutations use the advisory-lock retry path, and ordering is asymmetric
+ * (install: FS → lockfile → catalog; rm: catalog → lockfile → FS — see
+ * src/libswamp/extensions/install_extension_service.ts:65-90 and
+ * remove_extension_service.ts:38-66). The unit-level FaultingStubRepository
+ * tests (install_extension_service_test.ts) already pin SQLite ROLLBACK
+ * semantics; this test is the cross-process composition check.
+ *
+ * Calibration note
+ * ----------------
+ * data_delete_test.ts's RACE_ITERATIONS=50 was sized against an evidence-base —
+ * the swamp-club#234 race reproduced in ~40 attempts under high writer
+ * pressure. This test, by contrast, verifies the ABSENCE of a race in code
+ * that's claimed safe — no calibration point exists. N=50 is mirrored so a
+ * future regression has a leading-indicator chance to surface here, but it is
+ * not a guarantee. If a regression takes >50 iterations to surface, this test
+ * will miss it; CI's natural soak across the merge train is the longer-tail
+ * coverage.
+ *
+ * Architecture note (ADV-9)
+ * -------------------------
+ * Lockfile and catalog use independent locks. The lockfile lock
+ * (LOCK_RETRY_COUNT=10, LOCK_RETRY_DELAY_MS=100 — see
+ * src/infrastructure/persistence/lockfile_repository.ts) does NOT serialise
+ * SQLite catalog contention. Invariant (ii') filters lockfile-exhaustion
+ * as a real failure (the lockfile retry budget exists precisely to
+ * absorb expected contention; exhausting it means real damage).
+ *
+ * SQLite contention ("database is locked") is INTENTIONALLY tolerated.
+ * Per design/extension.md "Crash-state recovery", a saveAll failure on
+ * SQLite I/O rolls the catalog back via SQLite ROLLBACK while leaving
+ * FS+lockfile in place — the user-visible "Install partially applied …
+ * retry to reconcile" path. The next pull/update's diff-save reconciles.
+ * The bijection invariants (i) tolerate this transient state by
+ * detecting the W2 recovery message in stderr and skipping the
+ * lockfile→catalog direction for that extension; a final sequential
+ * `extension update` after the loop drains any pending state and
+ * end-state strict bijection is asserted.
