A daemon that survives a full macOS logout is unsalvageable: its PAM context can no longer host login(1) spawns (every new PTY becomes a 'Login incorrect' prompt zombie) and its Mach bootstrap namespace has lost the system DNS resolver, so terminals it hosts have no egress. Today it also keeps the #9301 preflight's cached 'accepted' verdict, so it keeps wrapping spawns in login(1) forever; only a manual daemon restart recovers. GUI-spawned daemons now watch for login-session death from the inside: a fresh cache-bypassing PAM probe (triggered by PTY-exit bursts, fresh client hellos, and a slow periodic timer) must conclusively reject three consecutive times AND the in-process system resolver must be degraded; then the daemon exits crash-style so session meta stays unclean and the replacement daemon cold-restores scrollback. A conclusive rejection also flips the spawn-wrapper cache off immediately. Headless serve/SSH daemons never get the watch (they must survive their spawning session ending), and a session that never conclusively accepted login(1) never arms it — a PAM anomaly alone can't kill a healthy daemon (fast user switching keeps accepting, so switched-away sessions are preserved).
