claim_signal
Claim pending signals with a short lease to assign ownership to a worker, ensuring fair distribution and preventing duplicate processing.
Instructions
Claim one signal with a short lease for lightweight work coordination.
Use this when a worker should take ownership of a pending signal before it acts.
If signal_id is omitted, the bridge claims the next eligible signal in the
namespace that matches the optional filters, with a small fairness bias inside
the oldest pending window so one polling consumer does not keep winning by accident.
