What
While a session is tearing down, the bridge now rejects most incoming requests immediately with the error "This session is shutting down." instead of racing the shutdown. A small read-only set still goes through: initialize, file_suggestions, read_file, get_context_usage, get_usage and mcp_status.
Details
Rejected requests get a control response of subtype error and a "[bridge] refusing" log line naming the request type.
Unconditional; it fires whenever the shutdown latch is set.
Evidence
This session is shutting down.
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
