Closes #969 ## What and why On Windows, deleting an agent task and its worktree could fail with `os error 32` while the agent's process tree still held the directory or its files open. Deletion now waits up to 5 seconds for the agent process to be killed and reaped, then retries folder removal for transient locks. This also covers persistent ACP agents such as CodeBuddy that cannot reload their session and therefore stay alive while idle. ## How it was verified - Windows desktop acceptance through the Tauri MCP bridge, using a deterministic ACP agent with a real PowerShell descendant holding a file open. Closed the conversation tab, then deleted the task with worktree removal enabled. A separate helper retained another file lock for 1.2 seconds: the pre-fix implementation showed `os error 32`; the fixed implementation deleted the task and directory, with both agent processes gone. - Also verified direct deletion, archive then delete, and deletion with worktree removal unchecked. Processes exited in all cases; branches were preserved, and unchecked removal preserved the folder. - `cargo test -p ide-jsonrpc -p ide-agent -- --test-threads=2`: 155 passed, 5 real-agent tests ignored. The test runner used Git Bash on PATH and a process-local `core.autocrlf=false`, matching CI's LF fixture setup; no global Git settings were changed. - `cargo clippy -p ide-jsonrpc -p ide-agent --all-targets -- -D warnings`, `cargo fmt --all --check`, and `git diff --check`: passed. - Full workspace (Windows/macOS/Linux), frontend and E2E CI: [final PR run](https://github.com/l0ng-ai/openidea/actions/runs/41819945536). - Windows regression coverage now checks deletion while waiting for permission and while idle without `session/load`, actual sharing violations, delayed file-lock release, and `Peer::exited()` waiting for a descendant's file handle to close. Existing Unix process tests remain enabled. - Evidence (local, not committed): - Before: `C:/Users/thoma/repo/pr1240-evidence-20261104/before.png` - After: `C:/Users/thoma/repo/pr1240-evidence-20261104/after.png` - Recording: `C:/Users/thoma/repo/pr1240-evidence-20261104/after.gif` - Runtime results: `C:/Users/thoma/repo/pr1240-evidence-20261104/runtime-cases.json` - Real signed-in CodeBuddy and native Claude/Codex were not exercised. Native Claude/Codex use an in-process connection, so their `exited()` resolves immediately and removal relies on the bounded retry. Shared-worktree fork protection remains unchanged.

A release build of OpenIDEA from main and IDEA with default settings and plugins, on
Windows 11, 32-core AMD, 62 GB RAM.
IDEA analyses Python more deeply, so "ready" doesn't mean the same work on
both sides. Both are measured from the outside, the same way: see
perf/compare to run it on your machine and projects.
