The IDAError/IDAConnectionError/IDAToolError/... exceptions and the Session
dataclass were defined in client.py (the ida-pro-mcp HTTP client), but the idalib
worker path (worker_client/domain/app) needs them without the HTTP transport.
Move them to a transport-agnostic errors.py; client.py re-exports them so the
deprecated mcp tooling and stress tests are unchanged (verified:
errors.IDAToolError IS client.IDAToolError, so cross-module `except` still works).
worker_client, domain (TYPE_CHECKING-guarded IDAClient hint), app, and __init__
now import the shared types from errors.py. This decouples the worker path from
client.py at runtime -- the prerequisite for deleting the mcp transport.

Root cause of "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'ida_pro_mcp'": the worker was
spawned with sys.executable — the TUI's python (~/ida-venv) which has idalib +
textual but NOT ida_pro_mcp. The package split on this box:
/usr/bin/python : idapro + ida_pro_mcp (the "IDA python")
~/ida-venv/python : idapro + textual (the "TUI python", runs the app)
Fix: WorkerClient now auto-detects a python that can import ida_pro_mcp
(IDATUI_WORKER_PYTHON override, else /usr/bin/python[3], else sys.executable) and
runs worker.py as a SCRIPT rather than `-m idatui.worker`, so it doesn't import
the textual-dependent idatui package __init__ under a python that has no textual.
worker.py itself is pure stdlib at load; idapro/ida_pro_mcp are imported at
runtime (both present in the IDA python).
Verified: detection returns /usr/bin/python; worker.py loads clean there.

The worker's stderr was swallowed by the TUI, so an open failure showed only
"worker exited during startup (code 1)". Now:
* WorkerClient captures the worker's stdout+stderr to /tmp/idatui-worker-*.log
and, on a startup exit, surfaces the last meaningful line in the error (the
worker prints a clean 'WORKER-FATAL: ...' marker; _log_tail prefers it).
* worker.py wraps main() to print that marker + traceback before exiting 1, and
gives an ACTIONABLE open error: "failed to open <bin>: the .i64 is likely held
by a running ida-mcp worker (pkill -f idalib) or wedged (delete .id0/.id1/
.id2/.nam/.til)". Also calls ida_auto.auto_wait() after open to fully match
ida-mcp's session manager (open_database + auto_wait).
Root cause of the reported failure is almost certainly a leftover ida-mcp worker
still holding bash's .i64 from earlier --backend mcp runs: idalib can't open a
database another process has locked. Fix: pkill -f idalib, then retry
--backend worker; the error message now says so instead of "code 1".

step 1
First concrete step off the mcp HTTP transport. Instead of reimplementing ~25
tools, reuse ida-pro-mcp's tool *functions* verbatim and replace only the
transport + process management:
* idatui/worker.py — opens ONE database in-process on the main thread (as idalib
requires), imports ida_pro_mcp (which registers every stock + our patched-in
custom tool against MCP_SERVER), then serves MCP_SERVER.tools.methods[name]
(**args) over a unix socket with length-prefixed pickle. Serial on the main
thread (idalib is single-threaded; tools run inline through execute_sync).
Session-management tools (idb_open/idb_save/server_health/idb_list) are shimmed
since the worker *is* the single session.
* idatui/worker_client.py — WorkerClient exposes the exact surface the app/domain
use on the client (call/call_envelope/connect/set_db/resolve_db/list_sessions/
health/keepalive/close) and returns byte-identical payloads (the worker calls
the same functions IDAClient.call ultimately hits). So domain.py and the app
are UNCHANGED — you just construct a WorkerClient instead of an IDAClient.
Calls are serialized under a lock over one socket; keepalive is a no-op (the
worker is ours and never idles out).
Not wired into the app yet — the mcp path is fully intact.
Verified without idalib: pickle framing round-trips arbitrary payloads incl raw
bytes; WorkerClient has full IDAClient surface; call_envelope produces the
result.structuredContent shape domain.decompile() reads. The idalib E2E
(experiments/worker_smoke.py drives the real domain.Program read path through the
worker) is written but couldn't run here — this sandbox has degraded to reaping
any idalib spawn; the underlying unix-socket protocol already ran clean in the
inproc_spike bench (~50us/call), and the worker dispatches the same tool
functions the HTTP path does, so shapes match by construction.
Next: stand up progress reporting during analysis, then flip _connect/_reconnect
to build a WorkerClient behind a flag and run the pilot suite against it.
