Thank you for your contribution to Klipper. Unfortunately, a reviewer has not assigned themselves to this GitHub Pull Request. All Pull Requests are reviewed before merging, and a reviewer will need to volunteer. Further information is available at: https://www.klipper3d.org/CONTRIBUTING.html
There are some steps that you can take now:
- Perform a self-review of your Pull Request by following the steps at: https://www.klipper3d.org/CONTRIBUTING.html#what-to-expect-in-a-review If you have completed a self-review, be sure to state the results of that self-review explicitly in the Pull Request comments. A reviewer is more likely to participate if the bulk of a review has already been completed.
- Consider opening a topic on the Klipper Discourse server to discuss this work. The Discourse server is a good place to discuss development ideas and to engage users interested in testing. Reviewers are more likely to prioritize Pull Requests with an active community of users.
- Consider helping out reviewers by reviewing other Klipper Pull Requests. Taking the time to perform a careful and detailed review of others work is appreciated. Regular contributors are more likely to prioritize the contributions of other regular contributors.
Unfortunately, if a reviewer does not assign themselves to this GitHub Pull Request then it will be automatically closed. If this happens, then it is a good idea to move further discussion to the Klipper Discourse server. Reviewers can reach out on that forum to let you know if they are interested and when they are available.

PS: I'm just an automated script, not a human being.
I'm not sure how I should self-review a documentation change.
@KevinOConnor: could you have a quick look, as we were having the discussion about these event handlers in another PR recently?
Sorry - this "slipped" on my side.
We can certainly change the documentation, but for what it is worth I find the paragraph flow of this change a little odd. The "reactor" is first described a few bullets down in that list - so referring to the reactor before describing it seems a little odd.
Maybe just change the "ready" event description to add something like: "This event is only intended as notification of a state change - do not raise an error in this callback, send commands to a micro-controller, nor perform any long running operations." Not sure.
Thanks for working on this, -Kevin
