What
On the delivery path that is compiled off in this build, a finished background task's output tail is read before the completion notice goes out, so the notice would arrive with the tail attached.
Details
- If the read fails, the task is delivered without the tail and a warning "output tail unreadable, delivering without it" is logged.
- Sits behind the same compiled-off guard as the GetTask surface, so nothing reaches users here.
Evidence
