Hello, it's October 7th, 2026.
Yesterday's activity points in one direction: making Node workers fail visibly instead of failing silently.
All three fixes close gaps where an error was swallowed, a clone incorrectly succeeded, or bad data overwrote good data.
First, error delivery now matches the web surface.
A message listener on the parent port that threw never reached the worker's error handler or the parent's error handler — it stopped at the uncaught error reporter.
As fixed in pull request 491, that relay now dispatches the same way worker global message delivery does, so the throw propagates.
