The windev full-suite wedge — every test reported, then the x64 testhost sitting at ~0 CPU forever while `dotnet test` never returns — was one test blocked on a pipe write, not a leaked thread or an undisposed fixture. `dotnet-stack report` on the wedged host showed no thread running test code: xUnit's RunTestsInAssembly was parked on WaitHandle.WaitOne() waiting for the assembly-finished event, so the wait lived in a suspended async state machine. `dotnet-dump analyze -c dumpasync` named the frame — WorkerClientTests .StagingChannelOverflowFaultsWorkerWithoutWaitingForFullModeTimeout awaiting WorkerFrameWriter.WriteAsync on a 63-byte frame, with <extra>5__15 = 6, i.e. the seventh of the twelve events the test pushes past the client's staging bound. That test faults the worker client on purpose, and a faulted client stops its read loop by design. The test-side pipe came from the NamedPipeServerStream overload without buffer arguments, which passes inBufferSize: 0 / outBufferSize: 0 to CreateNamedPipe; on Windows that reserves no buffer at all, so a write completes only once the peer reads it. Measured on windev, that pipe absorbed 0 bytes against a non-reading peer where the same pipe declared with 64 KiB buffers absorbed 65 520. On macOS and Linux .NET backs named pipes with Unix domain sockets whose socket buffer swallows the writes regardless, which is why the identical test never hung there and the bug read as environmental. Test-owned server pipes now go through TestSupport/TestNamedPipe.CreateServer in both test projects, declaring explicit 64 KiB buffers so those tests exercise the gateway's own staging/queue backpressure rather than the OS pipe's flow control. Separately, every fake-worker write in WorkerClientTests now goes through PipePair.WriteAsync, bounded by the class's five-second TestTimeout. That is where the severity came from: a test method that never returns keeps xUnit from raising ITestAssemblyFinished, so one unbounded await cost the whole suite its result. A blocked write is now a named test failure instead of a silent wedge. The fix also retires a wrong belief the wedge had created. windev reported 855 where macOS reported 879, and that gap was recorded in GatewayTesting.md as Unix-gated test cases; it was really the results lost when the wedged host was torn down. The same clone now reports 879 passed, matching macOS exactly. Product code is unaffected. SessionWorkerClientFactory.CreatePipe keeps the unbuffered declaration deliberately: both ends run continuous read loops and every gateway write is bounded by the worker client's _stopCts, so a stalled peer cancels the write rather than blocking on it. Verified on windev at this SHA: gateway suite x64 three times (879 passed, exit 0, no surviving testhost each time) and Worker.Tests x86 twice (400 passed, 11 skipped, exit 0, clean), plus the macOS gateway suite once (879 passed). Docs: GatewayTesting.md replaces the --blame-hang workaround section with the root cause and corrects the baseline to 879, CLAUDE.md's Source Update Workflow no longer tells readers the windev suite wedges, and ToolchainLinks.md records dotnet-stack and dotnet-dump as installed on windev.

dotnet-stack and dotnet-dump are the diagnostics pair for a process that stops
making progress but does not exit. dotnet-stack report -p <pid> prints every
managed thread's stack, which is enough when a thread is blocked; when nothing is
on a thread the wait lives in a suspended async state machine, and only
dotnet-dump collect -p <pid> followed by dotnet-dump analyze <dump> -c dumpasync
reveals it. Both were installed user-local with dotnet tool install -g while
root-causing the windev test-host hang described in docs/GatewayTesting.md.

declares a JavaLanguageVersion.of(17) toolchain). Gradle resolves toolchains by
version, so a JDK 17 must be available on the build host even though the runtime
above is Temurin 21 (a 17-targeted build still runs on 21+).
