+
+    Regression test: RunResultStreaming._check_errors() re-creates a fresh
+    MaxTurnsExceeded and overwrites self._stored_exception on *every* call once
+    current_turn > max_turns, because self._max_turns_handled is only ever set
+    True by the max_turns error-handler path -- never in the default (no
+    handler) path. stream_events() calls _check_errors() again unconditionally
+    in its `finally` block, so a guardrail trip that was already captured as
+    InputGuardrailTripwireTriggered got silently replaced with MaxTurnsExceeded
+    by that final call. Callers using the documented
+    `except InputGuardrailTripwireTriggered` pattern never saw the tripwire.
+
+    This race must not be ordered with a real-time sleep: a fixed delay only
+    approximates "the guardrail finishes after max_turns is exceeded", and
+    under CI load, tracing overhead, or slower model instrumentation the
+    guardrail can instead finish *before* current_turn > max_turns is ever
+    reached, in which case the test would observe the correct exception even
+    against the unpatched (buggy) implementation and silently stop being a
+    regression test. Instead, an `error_handlers={"max_turns": ...}` hook
+    (returning None, so it falls through to the exact same default raise path
+    as if no handler were registered) sets an `asyncio.Event` at the precise
+    moment the run loop establishes current_turn > max_turns. The guardrail
+    awaits that event before returning its tripwire, so it can only ever
+    resolve *after* the max-turns condition genuinely holds.
