- Retry when TCP reconnects before the TWS session is ready - Cover sync and async paths with transient handshake tests
Exhausted reconnect attempts now return the final attempt's error instead of a bare Error::ConnectionFailed, so a permanent cause (e.g. incompatible server version) is named. Dispatchers still map any reconnect failure to the ConnectionFailed sentinel, so loop-exit behavior is unchanged.

Thanks @faysou. Retrying through the TWS startup window where the socket accepts but the handshake isn't ready is right. I pushed two small additions to your branch:
Will merge once CI is green. |

Summary
Keep the sync and async reconnect loops active when the socket reopens but session establishment fails. This covers the interval where TWS accepts TCP connections before its API handshake is ready, such as during an automated restart.
stateDiagram-v2 [*] --> ReconnectSocket ReconnectSocket --> EstablishSession: socket connected ReconnectSocket --> Backoff: socket error EstablishSession --> Connected: session ready EstablishSession --> Backoff: handshake or startup error Backoff --> ReconnectSocket: attempts remain Backoff --> Failed: attempts exhaustedA reconnect succeeds only after the complete session is ready. Transient establishment failures consume an attempt and follow the existing backoff policy.
Testing
cargo test -p ibapi --features sync.
