  "summary": "Synchronizes `HTTPRemoteClient::m_keep_alive` updates with `m_send_buffer` by moving the assignment inside `m_send_mutex` and switching the field from `std::atomic_bool` to `bool GUARDED_BY(m_send_mutex)`. Also adds a regression unit test simulating the race condition.",
  "problem": "When a client pipelines a keep-alive request followed by a 'Connection: close' request, the worker handling the second request clears `m_keep_alive` before taking `m_send_mutex`. If the I/O thread drains the first response in between, it observes an empty buffer with keep-alive disabled and disconnects the client before the second response can be queued, dropping it.",

  "card": "This PR fixes a race condition in the internal HTTP server where HTTPRemoteClient::m_keep_alive was updated outside m_send_mutex. For pipelined requests where a keep-alive request is followed by a connection-closing request, the I/O thread could observe an empty buffer and a disabled keep-alive flag between requests, disconnecting the client and dropping the second reply. The fix guards m_keep_alive with m_send_mutex and includes a deterministic mock-socket regression test. winterrdog provided a concept ACK supporting the lock synchronization, and the PR is ready for review."
