Is this an overkill? I don't know.
The thing is, correctly intercepting SIGTERM (also SIGINT, etc.) is
incredibly tricky. For example, before this commit, my I/O loops in
server.c and worker.c were inherently racy.
This was immediately obvious if you tried to run the tests. The tests
(especially the Valgrind flavour) would run a worker, wait until it
prints a "Waiting for a new command" line, and try to kill it using
SIGTERM. The problem is, the global_stop_flag check could have already
been executed by the worker, and it would hang forever in recv().
The solution seems to be to use signalfd and select()/poll(). I've never
used either before, but it seems to work well enough - at least the very
same tests pass and don't hang now.

Explicit is better than implicit.

pthread_attr_setsigmask_np is only available since 2.32, which is too
modern.

pthread functions return positive error codes.

Well, maybe "graceful" is a strong word, but now you _can_ do
./server &
./worker &
./client ci_run URL REV && kill "$( pidof worker )"
and the worker will wait for the CI run to complete.
