Brennan BensonandMerge Sim 7faa9f7cd3 fix(native-chat): reasoning rows with a real open/finished state, and readable Claude thinking (#19221)
* fix(native-chat): render structured reasoning as collapsible messages

* fix(native-chat): align expanded reasoning with summary

* fix(native-chat): place reasoning chevron after summary

* De-emphasize reasoning headlines with observed timing labels

* Exclude later turn work from observed reasoning duration

* fix(native-chat): give reasoning rows a host-owned open/closed lifecycle

A reasoning row now says whether its block is still streaming (`state`)
and, when the host saw it end, when (`completedAt`). The row's own
start is its first-write time, so "Thought for N s" is measured on the
execution host instead of by whichever window happened to be watching.

Rows open with their first non-empty text and close on every path that
ends them: the block's final frame, a new message in the same stream,
every Claude turn end through one hook on the open turn, Codex
item/completed, turn and session settlement, active-item eviction, and
both host sweeps for a dead generation. Closing writes are lifecycle
writes so backpressure cannot leave a row open. Rows without the field
(older hosts, older journals) never read as live.

The reasoning row's headline reads the row's lifecycle and its own
turn's liveness: Thinking while open in a running turn, then Thought
for N s, Thought when no span was seen, Reasoning when the host kept no
lifecycle.

* feat(native-chat): ask Claude for readable thinking summaries

Under Orca's launch the Claude CLI streams thinking blocks with empty
text, so no reasoning row ever had anything to show. Pass only
`--thinking-display summarized`: it fills thinking blocks with the
API's summaries without turning thinking on, so a user who disabled
thinking keeps it off.

Orca runs the user's own binary, and a CLI older than the flag exits on
it before the session starts. The launch probes the binary it is about
to run, overlapping the rest of launch resolution, and passes the flag
only when that probe has already answered with 2.1.94 or newer. A slow
or failed probe never delays a launch and is never remembered; a
successful one is kept per binary until the binary changes.

* test(native-chat): type the superseding send in the reasoning lifecycle test

* fix(native-chat): stop reading an ended reasoning row as thinking

The spinner line infers "Thinking" from the newest root row being a
reasoning message. With summaries on, a closed reasoning row stays the
newest row while Claude streams a tool's input, so the line read
Thinking for the whole Write. A reasoning row now counts only while its
own state is running; a row from a host that keeps no state reads as
before.

* fix(native-chat): measure reasoning from the block's start, not its first text

A row opens with its first summary text, which trails the thinking
block's start by seconds, and the journal stamps a row with its queued
append time. So "Thought for N s" read 1 s for blocks that ran 4.65 s
and 12.95 s. The block registry now records the host time at each
block's content_block_start (else its first delta), and every write of
that block's row carries it as the row's observed time; the close keeps
the frame's own receipt time. Codex reasoning rows likewise carry their
item/started time.

* perf(native-chat): stop rewriting the reasoning row for every thinking token

Claude sends a thinking_tokens frame after every thinking delta. Every
frame the stream path did not consume forced the streamed text out
first, bypassing the checkpoint widening and the coalescing window, so
a single thinking block was rewritten and republished once per token:
212 full-row writes and 258 KB for one captured block. A frame that can
write no row (token tallies, stream deltas no registry carries, pings)
no longer forces that flush; every frame that can write still does.
The same block now takes 14 writes.

* fix(native-chat): time Codex reasoning by receipt and close evicted rows

Codex summary text lands 13-50 ms before item/completed, inside one
coalescing window, so a reasoning row's first write can be its
completion. Item boundaries are now stamped with their host receipt
time the way turn boundaries already were, so a retried or buffered
delivery keeps it, and the item translator falls back to the host
clock rather than Date.now(). The row carries its item/started time on
every first write, including the completion, so its span is
item/started to item/completed.

An evicted active item is now closed from the text streamed so far,
like both settle paths, and the eviction runs before the incoming item
is tracked: tracking first let the stream bound drop the evictee's text
before the eviction could close its row, stranding it running.

completedAt now has one meaning everywhere: the host time the message
was seen to end, or the end of the turn or stream that cut it off;
absent only when no end was seen live.

* refactor(native-chat): keep the Codex streaming body translation pure

The streaming translation preserves a reasoning body as-is again; the
stream writer, which is what knows the item has not completed, stamps
it running.

* test(native-chat): keep a re-collapsed reasoning row collapsed through a revision

* fix(native-chat): estimate a collapsed reasoning row as its trigger

A reasoning row renders collapsed, as one small button, but its height
was estimated from its full text: a 4,129-character summary reserved
about 950 px for a 24 px row, so long chats jumped as rows were
measured. It is now estimated at the trigger's height; opening the row
remeasures it.

* fix(native-chat): probe the CLI the launch will run, and learn from a refusal

The thinking-display gate probed `claude --version` with Orca's own cwd
and env, while the launch spawns with the workspace's cwd and the shell
env. Behind a version manager's shim those can pick different CLIs, so
the probe could approve a CLI the launch never ran, and an older CLI
exits on the unknown flag before the session starts. The probe also
only counted if it had already finished when resolution did, so a
first launch, or the first after a CLI update, usually went without
the flag.

The probe now runs with the launch's own resolved cwd and env, is keyed
by the binary and the workspace, and a launch waits up to 200 ms for it
(about 3x the probe's measured p95) before going without the flag. Only
answers are kept, so a slow or failed probe is asked again next launch.
A child that exits with commander's "unknown option '--thinking-display'"
marks that binary in that workspace so the next launch skips the flag;
that one start fails exactly as any CLI startup failure does today.

* test(native-chat): type the thinking-display probe mock with both of its parameters

* fix(native-chat): recheck the account switch after the probe, last as before

Moving the invocation ahead of the probe, the transcript check and the
permission mode put its account-switch recheck before those awaits, so a
switch that began during them launched unchecked. The invocation is the
last await again. The probe gets its own env from the same sources the
launch uses, the inherited env and the overlay with the CLI's runtime on
PATH, built by the same code, minus every credential: asking a CLI its
version needs none.

* fix(native-chat): wait up to 1.5 s for a cold probe, and remember every outcome

200 ms only covered a warm CLI; a cold disk, a node install or an
antivirus scan exceeds it, and that chat's child then ran its whole
life without summaries. A launch now waits up to 1.5 s, once per binary
per workspace, measured from when that binary's probe began, so a later
launch never waits again on a probe already past it. The probe gets its
own 10 s kill timeout, and every outcome, including no version printed,
a failure or a kill, is kept for the binary's life, so a probe that
hangs costs one launch rather than every one. A refusal seen while a
probe still runs wins over its late answer.

* fix(native-chat): leave Thinking to the activity line while reasoning runs

A reasoning row still being written drew a pulsing "Thinking…" header
right under the turn's activity line, which already says Thinking: two
live indicators for one fact. In a running turn an open reasoning row
now draws nothing and reserves no height; it appears when it closes, as
"Thought for N s". A row from a host that keeps no state, a closed row,
and a row left open by a turn that ended draw as before. The row's
Thinking headline is gone with its catalog key.

* fix(native-chat): end every unfinished Codex item through one rule

A reasoning completion with no text of its own left the row its stream
wrote running for good: the completion translated to nothing and the
item left the active set, so no settle could reach it. It now closes
from the text streamed so far.

Settlement, eviction and that completion now build an unfinished item's
row through one choice (the streamed text when there is any, else the
item as it started) and end it through one rule. An evicted file change
with streamed tool output no longer keeps that output as its patch; it
reads as interrupted, as a settled one does. A completion whose start
was never recorded claims no span, so it reads "Thought".

* fix(native-chat): catalogue Claude's stream keep-alive as benign

An uncatalogued `ping` stream frame classified as substantive, so the
fallback wrote a visible "claude · message:stream_event:ping" row, and
since such frames no longer force streamed text out first, a ping
inside a coalescing window landed above the open reasoning row. A ping
is now benign: it writes no row.

* fix(native-chat): bound finding the binary by the probe budget, and keep it LRU

Resolving the command's real path and its mtime was awaited before the
budgeted wait, so a slow filesystem could hold a launch indefinitely;
it now counts against the same budget, and running out caches nothing.
The cache is least recently used rather than first written, and holds
32 binary-and-workspace entries rather than 16.

* feat(mobile): collapse reasoning rows the way desktop does

With summaries on, every Claude turn now carries reasoning text, and the
phone drew all of it inline, dimmed, between the prompt and the answer.
Mobile now draws a reasoning row as desktop does: collapsed to "Thought
for N s", "Thought" or "Reasoning", its text mounted only once opened,
and nothing at all while the row is still being written in the live
turn or has no text. The headline and the visibility rule live in one
shared module both clients read, so they cannot drift.

* fix(native-chat): let a failed CLI probe heal instead of latching

A probe killed at its timeout, failing to spawn under a loaded boot, or
printing no version was cached as "no flag" for the binary's life, so
that workspace never got summaries again in that run. Only a version
(either side of the floor) or the CLI's own refusal is kept for good
now; a probe that gave no version is kept for 10 minutes, so a hung CLI
still costs one wait per stretch and a boot-time failure heals.

* docs(native-chat): say exactly what the version probe's env leaves out

* fix(native-chat): record a Codex item's start whatever its first frame carried

The start was recorded only for an item/started that wrote no row, so a
reasoning item that started with text lost it and its completion
claimed no span. Every tracked item/started now records its receipt
time, and the started write carries it too.

* fix(mobile): label the reasoning toggle and give it a full touch target

The toggle now tells a screen reader what it is, "Reasoning: Thought
for 3s", as desktop's prefix does, and reaches a 44 pt target. The
shared English copy stays private to the module that formats it.

* refactor(native-chat): build reasoning rows from one provider-neutral helper

Claude, Codex and the terminal sweeps each built the reasoning row body and
its running/ended stamp themselves. They now share journal-reasoning-row:
blank text journals no row, text is bounded the same way, and an end carries
completedAt only when the host saw it.

* refactor(codex): move the active journal item type into the contracts file

codex-unfinished-item-body imported the type from the settlement module,
which imports values from it.

* test(claude): read the launch PATH the way Windows spells it

* test(claude): compare the probe's PATH to the launch's without Orca's CLI dir

When the CLI's directory also holds node (Linux CI's /usr/local/bin), the
runtime pairing puts that directory first, ahead of the Orca CLI directory the
launch adds, so the launch PATH no longer ends with the probe's. Both still
resolve the same claude and shims. The test now checks that exactly, for a CLI
with and without a sibling node.

* feat(native-chat): lead the reasoning row with a brain glyph in the tool-row column

* fix(native-chat): route the reasoning glyph through the shared icon names, keep its chevron findable, and match it on mobile

* fix(mobile): keep the long-press actions sheet on reasoning rows for Android

* fix(native-chat): forward every exit argument through the thinking-display connection wrapper

* refactor(codex): keep the receipt-timed notification methods with the event they stamp

* feat(native-chat): read an open reasoning block through the one live "Thinking" line

While the agent's open reasoning block has text, the turn's live activity line is its
disclosure: collapsed by default, expandable to the live text (capped and scrollable), and
the block's row draws nothing meanwhile. When the block ends, its row appears in place,
open if the reader opened it live, because the line and the row read one disclosure key.
Which block the line discloses is derived from the line's own render condition, so a row
is never hidden while nothing on screen shows it; any other open block (a subagent's, or
one a prompt pushed off the line) draws as "Reasoning". Desktop and mobile alike; no host
or wire change.

* fix(native-chat): a slot kept for its turn bar or diff rollup no longer draws its message

The transcript row drew the message of every message slot, while the slot builder pushes a slot
for a row it declined to draw whenever that row also carries its turn's bar or diff rollup. So the
open reasoning block the live line discloses still drew as a "Reasoning" row when it was a
provider-opened turn's first row or the last row of a turn that changed files, and one click
opened both. The builder's decision now travels on the slot (`drawsMessage`) and the row draws
only the bar and rollup when it is false; the row-level `folded` guard it made redundant is gone.

* refactor(native-chat): draw the live line from one shared value, with one live region

Desktop and mobile now render the live activity line from one pure function,
`nativeChatLiveLine`: whether it draws, what it says, and the open reasoning block it
discloses with the text it has so far. The open block's row is hidden from that same value,
so desktop no longer restates the line's render condition beside it, and the lines no longer
re-derive the text.

The line keeps one element, and so one live region, through every state; only its trigger
and body come and go, so a screen reader hears "Thinking" and the label after it. On mobile
the live text gets the finished row's Android long press (copy or select through the message
actions sheet), the line's touch target is the row's 44 pt, and its label and body sit in
the finished row's column so nothing moves when the row takes over.

* fix(mobile): keep the live text's actions sheet on the block it was opened for

On Android the sheet opened by a long press on the live reasoning was a flag gated on a live
block: it vanished when the block ended, mid Select text, and the stale flag reopened it
unprompted on the next block. The sheet now holds the message it was opened for.

* test(native-chat): the reasoning body owns its tone, live and once landed

Rendered QA on a pre-merge build showed the live line's open reasoning in full foreground and the
landed row's in muted text, so it dimmed as the block landed: the body set no colour of its own and
inherited one from wherever it was mounted. Since the main merge (017ad743fa) the body carries the
chat's faint tone itself; this pins that, and that the line and the row draw the same body.

Brennan Benson c4ea14cd9f Show a tool call you stopped as interrupted, not failed (#25181)
* Move the turn message ordinals and the turn-row revision to the neutral timeline folder

Pure moves so a shared timeline assembler can use them: Codex's message
ordinal counter becomes ProviderTurnMessageOrdinals and Claude's turn-row
revision becomes the provider-neutral agent-journal turn-row revision. Only
names and import paths change.

* Admit one provider event's writes as one transition, and let rows be found again after a restart

- A sink transition is admitted whole or not at all; its steps run back to
  back at their turn in the journal's write queue, and each resolver reads
  the fold with every earlier write landed. A resolver may also say where the
  row belongs (turn scope, provider reference), and the writer always hears
  how the transition landed. A resolved lifecycle batch chooses its
  settlement mutations from the fold at execution.
- New optional row field providerItemRef: the provider's own reference for
  the item a row is, written only where the row's identity cannot spell it
  (Codex keys messages by their place in the turn and renumbers its item ids
  on resume). Set by the creating write, kept by revisions, indexed by the
  journal fold, never read by clients. A downgrade test shows an older host
  and client render such rows unchanged.
- Provider timeline identity schemes (shared legacy arm, Codex) and the join
  index that resolves a provider item to its row from memory or the fold:
  ordinals and request incarnations are read back from the rows, so a
  restart or an evicted entry finds the original row instead of placing a
  new one.

* Recover message ordinals from the journal's highest place, and forget joins read from a replaced epoch

A fresh join index continued a turn's messages at the first free place, so a journal holding only a
later ordinal (an imported or removed earlier row) had its sequence back-filled. The place is now
one past the highest ordinal any row or echoed send holds there, read through a pure scheme reader.
The join caches also drop what they read when the journal's epoch is replaced.

* Spell the subagent thread's message slot without spreading an identity union

* Add a provider timeline grammar and a shared assembler that decides at its turn in the journal

Adapters translate their provider's dialect into a small grammar (turns,
items, streamed text, requests, context facts, session end/reset); one shared
assembler turns it into the journal rows every structured lane writes.

Each event is planned as one sink transition. Which row a write lands on,
whether a replay writes anything, and every change to what the assembler
knows (its ledger) are decided by the transition's resolvers at the event's
turn in the journal's write queue, against the fold as it stands then. A
forecast (the ledger plus admitted events still queued) only answers apply()
at once. So a refused event allocates nothing, a write the journal rejects
leaves no trace in memory, and a restart or evicted cache finds the same rows
again. Text and full snapshots of one provider item share one row and one
lifecycle; reset always flushes text and settles the old session from the
journal; the open-work budget is derived from what is actually open.

Codex migration contracts compare against the existing Codex translator,
including a restart mid-stream and a repeat that outlives the join cache.

* Fix the types and the exhaustive event switch CI reported for the assembler

* Let the journal decide stream lifetimes, request reuse, named sends and background work

A third review found two blockers with the earlier rounds' cause, a remembered interpretation
trusted after the journal moved on:

- A reused request id was judged by its earlier prompt's settled turn before asking which turn the
  new one lands in, so a real approval in a later turn was dropped. The target turn now decides:
  the old turn again is a replay; a different live turn opens the next prompt beside it.
- A text stream checked its row's turn only on its first write, and a turn's end released streams
  by the turn planning expected. Every write now checks the row, a turn's end stops the streams
  whose rows are in it, and turn status reads the journal first, so another writer's Stop wins.

Also: a message boundary drawn by an event the journal held as a replay no longer splits an
anonymous message; a send naming a turn not yet open waits for that turn; the budget charges a
stream's thread and turn strings and the turn caches are byte-bounded; the open turn ends when the
journal shows it settled; a turn's opener is read from the journal's row.

Background work is now Orca's existing background-task row instead of a tool call flagged
`outlivesTurn` (a flag remembered only in memory, so a restart failed the task). A turn's end
never settles that row, so it survives restarts; session end leaves one in flight unverifiable.
Three tests that opened a background tool call with `outlivesTurn` now open a background-task row
and keep their original expectations about which turn the row stays in.

* Type the unbound assembler helper's drain as the void it reports

* Bound the rows kept for a continued anonymous message and the stopped streams

A row kept for the anonymous stream that may continue it, and the marker that a stopped stream's
queued writes write nothing, lived in the live-stream map and were never removed when no stream
followed. They now live in their own bounded maps, so the live map holds open streams only.

* Read a tool call a stop or the session's end cut short as interrupted, not failed

A call still running when its turn was interrupted, when the provider child
was seen to exit, or that the provider cancelled now carries `endedAs:
'interrupted'` beside `state: 'failed'`. Every build that predates the field
keeps reading the call as the failure it always showed; this build reads both
through one shared reader and counts the call apart from failures in the run
header, without the error tint on its partial output.

The shared assembler, the restart settlement and the Codex lane settle a
running call through one rule: only a proven interruption cuts it short, so a
turn the provider completed around an unclosed call, or work the host lost
track of, still reads failed.

* Assert a completed Codex turn leaves its unclosed call plainly failed

* Assert an unverifiable restart settlement leaves its running call plainly failed

* Let a later death proof correct the calls an unverifiable settle closed

A settle with no proof of the child's death closed its running calls as plain failed, so a
proof written afterwards corrected the turn to interrupted but could not find the calls. The
call now keeps endedAs: 'unverifiable' beside its failed state, and the stale settle revises
exactly those calls whose owner the proof names. Older builds still read them as failed.

* Render a cut-short call's output on mobile, with and without proof

* Find the mobile result box by walking to its View, and type the unverified-ending block

* Walk to the mobile result box without a type assertion

* Keep the journal store under its line limit after the main merge

* Drop the provider item reference, join index and identity schemes from the transition PR

Nothing in production reaches the state they defended (an assembler that lost its memory while
its child keeps streaming the same turn), and the stored Codex id was positional. The legacy
identity scheme moves to the assembler PR with its first caller; the Codex scheme and any
persisted reference wait for Codex to move onto the assembler. The Codex ordinal counter goes
back to codex/, since no neutral code imports it.

* Write a resolved settlement in one transaction through enqueueRows

A settlement too large for one row now commits all its rows or none, through the journal's
existing all-or-nothing write, instead of a row-by-row writer. Every row is built before any
commits, so a settlement naming one item twice is refused before anything is written.

* Drop the transition's landing report; keep the turn-row write fire-and-forget

Nothing reads which steps of a transition wrote. A failed step fails the sink, leaving the
steps before it written; the header says so, and tests cover it plus a settlement whose second
row fails inside the transaction. writeAgentJournalTurnRow returns nothing again, as on main.

* Run a transition's steps as a prefix; drop the paced flag and resolved options

A failed step no longer lets the steps after it write: each step checks, at its own turn in the
journal's queue, whether the write handed over just ahead of it completed, using the queue's count
of completed write bodies (a promise would report the failure only after the next step ran). The
sink fails only once every step has had its turn. The item step's `paced` size bypass and the
resolver's replacement `options` are removed; nothing planned uses them.

* Rebuild the timeline assembler on one admission-order state

The assembler kept a second copy of its state (a forecast beside a ledger), hydrated
the open turn from the journal, and recognised replays, all to recover from losing its
memory while the provider child kept streaming. That never happens: one assembler lives
exactly as long as one child, and a new child is a new assembler in a new generation
whose events land after the dead-generation sweep.

- One state, changed only when the sink admits an event (minted keys included), so a
  refused event takes nothing.
- Every journal-dependent choice is made when the write runs, by keyed reads: a turn row
  is written only where none is, a stream checks its row's turn on every write, a running
  snapshot never lands in a settled turn or relights a settled tool, a request takes the
  first incarnation the journal holds no row for.
- Rows are found by spelling their ids (provider-timeline-rows.ts); no join cache.
- The identity scheme (legacy arm only) lives here with its first caller; requests are
  spelled in their acquisition generation, since JSON-RPC ids restart per process.
- Saved history goes in as `input.history` plus ordinary events with the provider's ids,
  into an empty journal; `session.reset` and every replay rule are gone.
- One terminal-body function (`terminalAgentJournalBody`) is shared with the
  dead-generation settlement.
- The test rig's restart now sweeps and starts a new generation, as production does.

* Cover new running work in a turn the sweep ended

* Run a transition's steps in one queued write that loops over them

The steps of one event now share one turn in the journal's write queue: a
loop writes each in its own transaction through the row writer's
synchronous writeRows (split out of enqueueRows) and stops at the first
throw. Prefix semantics and "nothing lands between the steps" now hold by
construction, so the completed-write counter on the queue, the step gate
and the allSettled barrier are gone; the queue is back to main's bytes.

* End a turn another writer settled the way the provider's end does

A person's Stop settled the open turn's row without a word to the assembler.
The assembler then forgot the turn: its running tools and pending prompts were
never settled, the provider's own end and withdrawal were dropped, and the
turn's text streams stayed counted against the open budget for the life of the
process. Text the provider kept streaming afterwards could land as a message
outside the stopped turn.

- The open turn the journal shows settled ends first, as one transition, through
  the same settlement the provider's turn.end plans; its streams stop and their
  keys drop later text until that turn's end or the next turn opens.
- turn.end and request.withdrawn are admitted for a turn or request the journal
  holds; their settlement writes nothing for rows already settled.
- The budget's re-check frees streams whose turn settled.
- A settled tool keeps its terminal body against any differing write.
- Session-end settlement of lost background work uses the journal's own
  lostLiveWorkJournalBody instead of a copy.
- The rig's window elapses before every read, and restart swaps and disposes
  the old assembler.

* Leave a stopped turn's running tools to the agent's own end

When another writer settles the open turn (a person's Stop), the assembler
now only stops that turn's text and cancels its pending prompts. Running tool
calls stay the agent's: a progress update or completion it reports after the
Stop lands as reported, and whatever is still running settles at the agent's
turn end for that turn, the next turn's open, or the session's end.

An agent's end for an earlier turn while a newer one is open no longer clears
the open turn's activity line or ends its anonymous reply. An unnamed end right
after a Stop ends the stopped turn instead of being dropped. The test rig's
restart no longer writes the dead assembler's window text, matching dispose.

* Pin that a stopped turn's running tools hold budget until the agent's end

* Type the stopped turn's tool progress update as a tool body

* List every event the assembler hands to the decision step

The type-aware lint requires an exhaustive switch with no default case.
Also retitle a Stop test to say what it asserts.

* End a running call as its turn's journal row ends

A call still running when its turn ends takes the state of that turn's
row: a row another writer settled first (a person's Stop) stands, so its
calls read interrupted whatever the provider's later end reports. The
no-ending path that settled calls from the Stop row is gone, since a Stop
now leaves running calls to the provider. Adds the two Spanish strings.

* Settle a stopped turn's running call as its turn row ended after a restart too

The restart sweep ended every running call by the death evidence alone, so after
a person's Stop with no proof the child died the call read failed under a turn
that read interrupted. The sweep and the live dead-generation settlement now ask
the same rule the assembler does: a call in a turn already settled ends as that
row ended; only a turn still running leaves its calls to the evidence.

* Keep the dead-generation settlement under the line cap

* refactor(native-chat): drop saved-history adoption from the timeline assembler

The common pattern discards the history a provider replays while loading a
session, so the assembler has no use for an input.history event.

* refactor(native-chat): a pending input is only Orca's send now

Review follow-up to the adoption removal: drop the comment naming the
provider's saved message, and make requestedAt required since every pending
input comes from input.accepted.

* test(ratchet): require src/main/provider-process now that it has landed

* test(native-chat): build this stack's journal identities with main's opaque provider handle

Main's #24991 replaced the {kind, ...} handle with {transport, agent, nativeId}; three test
files from this stack still wrote the old shape. Same lines the downstream ACP branch uses.

Brennan BensonandClaude d60f999f94 fix(native-chat): turn facts come from the turn record, and /compact is a message the chat sends (#23059)
* refactor(native-chat): remove the unused terminal handoff

No client ever called agentSession.requestHandoff or mounted the handoff
chrome. Delete the handoff coordinator, the terminal-owner runtime, the
proof write path and the unmounted UI. Keep agentSession.handoffStatus,
which released desktop clients read for worktree activation, and let
records an older build left mid handoff reconcile through the ordinary
restart and recovery paths.

* fix(native-chat): never let the pre-stop snapshot hold a chat's stop

Eviction now drains delivered events before quit's resume-offer snapshot. An
unbounded wait there sits ahead of the provider stop, so a sink whose journal
write stalls kept the child running until the step deadline aborted the
eviction. The offer is advisory: bound the drain and stop the child regardless.

`queryWindowsProcessRowsFresh` lost their last caller with the handoff. The
fresh-scan tests now go through `queryWindowsProcessDescendants({ fresh: true })`,
the teardown path that still depends on that contract.

* docs(native-chat): stop citing the removed handoff in lifecycle comments

Six comments still named the handoff coordinator, a handoff suspend, or a
terminal-owned session as live participants in the flows they describe.

* test(native-chat): pin that a start dead before proving owes no settlement

The removed restart handoff test pinned this branch; nothing else did.

* fix(native-chat): keep the owner-status read behind an in-flight attach

The handoff removal dropped the per-session queue from `handoffStatus`, so a
read landing mid-start reported the reservation (no owner) instead of the
settled chat owner, and shipped desktop clients blocked worktree activation on
it. The read is queued again, as it was before the removal.

* refactor(terminal): remove the agent-session PTY write gate

The gate only refused a write when a PTY had been bound to a chat session, and the
only code that ever bound one was the terminal handoff this branch removes. With it
gone, every admit/readmit returned "admitted" unconditionally, so the checks on the
renderer write path, the runtime controller backstop, terminal.send, agent prompts,
preview input and orchestration pointers, the refusal fields on terminal.send and
worker-start receipts, the plugin and CLI refusal copy, and the adopted-pane
orchestration routing could no longer run. Ordinary writes take the same path in
the same order as before.

* refactor(native-chat): drop the transcript helpers only the handoff called

appendLegacyTranscriptMessages fed the terminal transcript catch-up and
proveClaudeTranscriptBranch backed the terminal owner's exit proof. Both lost
their last caller with the handoff. Their tests now go through the live entry
points instead: the roster bounds through the legacy import, the pinned-read and
growth tests through the ancestry replay the history window uses, and the marker
rules through the string proof in their own file rather than the session-file
resolver's.

* fix(native-chat): stop calling a starting chat "mid-handoff"

A send refused because the chat's owner is not settled showed "The session is
mid-handoff (<stage>)." in the composer. With the handoff gone, the stages that
reach it are a chat that is still starting, or one whose previous agent process
has not yet been confirmed stopped. The message now says which of the two it is.
The refusal code is unchanged.

* test(native-chat): type the stand-in roster decoder without a cast

Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(codex): name the pinned rollout lookup for what it does

With the terminal handoff gone, the module named codex-tui-rollout-proof holds
only the pinned rollout lookup that structured Codex launches use to resume a
thread, so the name described code that no longer exists. Rename the module and
its options type. Also drop a mobile allowlist assertion that pinned the
removed agentSession.requestHandoff method, which no longer exists to allow.

* refactor(native-chat): type the owner-status reply as the host sends it

The handoffStatus reply type still listed the terminal handoff's fields and
states (terminal placement, host label, proof retry, queued and waiting phases,
the to-terminal direction). No host writes them any more and the only client
reader parses the reply as unknown, so they described nothing. The reply on the
wire is unchanged.

* refactor(native-chat): normalize terminal-handoff lease values once at decode

Nothing in this build writes a terminal owner (`runtimeKind: 'tui'`) or the
handoff's `preparing` / `old-owner-stopped` stages, but the in-memory types
still admitted them, so readers across the host kept branches for values no
path produces and the compiler could not point at them.

The store now validates the on-disk shape, which still accepts those values so
an older record is not quarantined, and maps them once while parsing:

- `preparing` and `old-owner-stopped` become `recovering`
- a `tui` lease becomes `native`; when it records a process it also becomes
  `conflicted`, the claim every build probes but never stops. A plain native
  owner would be stopped by restart recovery, here and in older builds.

Revisions are taken over the normalized state on both sides of every compare,
and the mapped record reaches disk with the store's first transaction, the
same way the tab-id backfill does.

The in-memory types narrow to what this build writes, and the branches that
existed only for the removed values go. Structured-worker identity keeps its
verdict for a former terminal owner by refusing a conflicted claim rather
than a non-native kind.

* refactor(native-chat): stop threading the owner kind through a reservation

A reservation only ever names a native owner now, so the request no longer
carries a kind and the reserved lease records `native` directly. The attach
params keep `runtimeKind`: agentSession.ensure and create accept it, and the
operation fingerprint stored in the ledger covers it.

* test(native-chat): pin the legacy-lease rewrite with a transaction that changes nothing else

Hiding a tab also committed the visibility index, so the no-op transaction
wrote the file even when its open-time revision was wrong. Committing the index
first leaves the pending rewrite as the only reason to write.

* fix(native-chat): name a chat write by its target, not the owner generation

A write carried the fence of the last frame the pane read, and the host refused it
unless that fence was still current. An idle release and the restart after it each
move the fence, and the release publishes nothing, so a send after a release was
refused "Expected runtime fence 1; the session is at 3", and a Stop queued behind a
cold start was refused as stale.

Every write already names what it acts on: a send its conversation, a cancel its
turn, a prompt answer its item revision, a rewind its epoch; an option is
last-writer-wins. So admission stops comparing the client's fence, and the rebase
that papered over one restart (admitAtResumedFence, resumedFromFence) goes with it.
The writer-lease check stays, and so does the attach's compare-and-swap.

Frames now stamp the fence read when each frame is sent instead of a copy each
subscriber kept, which went stale on the same release.

* fix(native-chat): every journal append reaches the chats that are open

A journal write and its delivery to open readers were two calls, and some
writers made only the first. A failed start whose lease could not be handed
back, a provider revision with no frame behind it, and eviction's settlement
were all journaled without reaching an open chat.

A journal handle now reports every durable change, and the host's session map
binds that report to the session's readers when the handle is set. Writers no
longer publish what they append; the per-writer publish calls are deleted.

* test(native-chat): an epoch replacement reaches the open chat

* test(native-chat): each row reaches an open chat once, and a live handle enters only through the map

* test(native-chat): give the legacy-lease store test a tab id so the backfill cannot supply its rewrite

The seeded record had no surface tab id, so the next open backfilled one and
that rewrite alone made the no-op transaction write. The test passed with the
legacy-lease rewrite signal removed.

* test(worktree-activation): restore the OMP surfaced-agent resume test

The handoff removal deleted it alongside the terminal-owner tests, but it
covers the surfaced-PTY block that still guards resume, including an agent
whose ownership is unknown.

* perf(native-chat): a publish behind a delivered commit reads nothing

Each commit now delivers itself, so the publish a provider frame still sends
afterwards found every reader caught up but still read rows and rebuilt the
timeline for each one. A caught-up reader now skips the read.

* test(native-chat): state why the teardown test's fake journal is safe to cast

* docs(native-chat): say mutation admission checks only the writer lease

* docs(native-chat): drop the send rebase from comments that still described it

* fix(native-chat): a message is accepted, then delivered

A send to a chat with no running agent restarted the agent inside the send
call, before the message was recorded, so the client waited for the whole
start and a failed restart refused the message. Claude held prompts sent
during startup, and those could settle as "unconfirmed".

A send is now accepted inside the session's serialized queue: one ledger row
and one submission row marked handoverRecorded, published, answered pending.
A per-session delivery loop exists while a message is queued. It starts the
agent through the same serialized attach a hold uses, waits outside the queue
for a Claude child to prove its start, and hands the oldest queued message
over as its own serialized step, writing dispatch{pending} before the adapter
call. A start it needed and did not get writes one error-tone row and rejects
every queued message with the same words; a start Stop cancelled writes none.

Settlement follows from the rows. A queued message is provably unwritten, so a
close, an eviction or an exit rejects it. A handed-over message stays in doubt.
A queued row at or below the sequence a handle found when it opened was left
by an earlier process and is rejected at open, with no latch. Stop withdraws
queued messages with no writer lease and no fence. An attach failure keeps the
conversation open, and the attach adopts its journal. Owed work counts the
loop and queued rows.

A compaction or rewind found prepared when a conversation opens was started
under a child this process no longer has, so the open settles it rather than
leaving it to refuse every send until a view attaches. The open cursor is
scoped to its epoch, because sequences restart when an epoch is replaced.

Deleted: restart-before-admission, recordFailedRestart, the fence rebase,
Claude's startup gate, the attach's forget on failure and its own crash
boundary. Clients without agent-session.accepted-send.v1 get their reply held
until the handover; the desktop and paired desktop lists advertise it.

* fix(native-chat): settle queued messages only for the child that ended

A child that proved its start and then exited before its message was handed
over left the message queued: the exit settlement returned early when nothing
else was in flight. Delivery then started another child for it, and a child
that died the same way started another, without end and without a row.

A retried settlement for an earlier generation, run by the attach that
delivery started, did the opposite: with that generation's turn unfinished it
rejected the message queued for the child being attached.

The settlement now takes the rejection for queued messages from its caller.
The unexpected exit and the eviction pass one, and it applies even with no
other work in flight; the retry for an earlier generation passes none.

* fix(native-chat): an adoption that fails to import keeps the conversation open

The attach now writes into the conversation's own open journal, but a failed
transcript import still closed it as if it were the attach's provisional one.
The conversation stayed indexed with a closed journal, so every later send
answered "could not be recorded" and every attach failed again until the app
restarted. The import now closes only a journal the attach opened for itself.

* perf(native-chat): the recovering open reads the journal once

Every conversation open now goes through the recovering open, including the
read restore of every chat at startup, which used to replay its journal once.
The recovering open replayed it twice: once to probe it and again inside the
open. The probe is now handed to the open as its load.

* fix(native-chat): an attach that fails after indexing its child leaves no child behind

A failed attach now keeps the conversation open, but a failure after
`onAttached` indexed the child (the rewind or compaction recovery, or the
attach's own success record) left that entry claiming a child the failure
path had already released. The next send found the phantom, skipped the start,
and wrote at a fence the journal had moved past, so the message stayed queued
for good. The entry now drops the released child and its event sink, and
follows the record's fence, as a failure before indexing already did.

* fix(native-chat): a withdrawn message shows no error, and a rejection outlasts the send's answer

The error strip for a message the host accepted and then did not deliver matched the entry before
the outbox reconciled, so a Stop's withdrawal, which the reconcile drops, showed "Orca could not
send your message" with nothing to retry. It now reads the reconciled entry.

A rejection the journal records before the send's own pending answer lands is final as well:
that answer no longer puts the entry back to dispatching with no Retry.

* fix(orchestration): a structured worker whose agent outlasts the preamble wait is left unknown, not torn down

The preamble waits for its submission to be delivered while the worker's agent starts. When that
wait ran out it threw operation_unknown, and the failed-start teardown then closed the session,
which rejected the very preamble the host was about to deliver. It now reports a turn start
nobody observed yet: the worker is start-unknown with its session kept, the host delivers the
preamble when the agent starts, and the worker's report settles the dispatch as for any
unobserved start. The receipt no longer suggests reading a screen a structured worker lacks.

* fix(native-chat): a message rejected while its chat was closed reads as not sent

A remount reads an entry it left dispatching as unconfirmed. When the journal had rejected it
meanwhile, as a failed start or a quit now does, the reconcile left it unconfirmed: it blocked
every later message behind a Retry and no reason, and the delivery probe, seeing the journal
already answered, never ran. The reconcile now settles it as rejected like a dispatching one.

* test(orchestration): name why the readiness settlement fakes are cast

* fix(native-chat): keep each pane's own fence on frames so a failed restart is not resent

* docs(native-chat): drop the fence from the admission the send effects run behind

* docs(native-chat): give the fence move on release the reason that still holds

* docs(native-chat): stop citing a write fence check in launch and mailbox comments

Three places still gave the removed fence check as a reason: the launch replay said admission puts the ledger ahead of the fence, the launch surface said a send must name the lease it was admitted against, and the direct-mailbox path said the lease fence decides whether delivery is safe. Admission now checks only the writer lease.

* refactor(native-chat): the provider child is its own record

A conversation now outlives any number of provider children, so the child is one record on the
conversation's entry instead of five loose fields beside its journal. It is written in one place:
indexed only once an attach has fully succeeded, and ended through one function that an exit, a
failed re-attach, a Stop and an eviction all share, matched on the child's generation and fence.

- A failed attach writes no child, so there is nothing to unwind: the field unwind and the fence
  patch after it are gone.
- Conversation writes read the record's fence, the way mutation admission already does; a child's
  own writes use its fence. The four stored-fence patches, and the settlement retry's overwrite of
  the conversation's fence, are gone.
- The owed wind-down is its own tombstone, carrying the child it is owed for, and is no longer
  dropped when an attach replaced the whole entry.
- Stop on a child still proving its start stops only the child: its lease goes back and the chat
  is told it is idle, but the journal, the holders and the readers stay. Close is that stop plus
  the conversation's close.
- The settlement retry uses the conversation's own journal, opened through the host's one open.

* fix(native-chat): the delivery loop alone settles a message its start or child failed

A queued message was settled by whichever path happened to end the child first: the loop, the
unexpected exit, eviction's work settlement, the open's leftover rule, and the startup branch that
rejected every pending row. That gave two failure rows with different tones for one start, a loop
that could hand over to a different child than the one it waited on, and a Claude start that died
while starting reading unlike every other failed start.

- The loop remembers the child it waited on. At handover, if that child is gone or replaced, it
  reads how it ended: a Stop continues; anything else writes one failure row and rejects every
  queued message with the same words, then stops. A child still starting whose start the adapter
  says did not land fails the same way. The exit, eviction and the settlement retry only settle
  the handed-over and legacy rows of the child that ended.
- One failure row, always an error, keyed by the start. A start a view began that dies with
  nothing queued writes the same row through the same builder, so a second report revises it.
- The open no longer rejects leftovers; the loop's first step does, and the open wakes it.
- `awaitStarted` answers why a start did not land, so the row says it even when the loop sees the
  failure before the exit is processed.
- Quit closes every conversation the way closing a chat does: what is still queued is rejected as
  closed, with or without a child, and a start the loop already has in flight is waited for so the
  child it produces is stopped rather than left behind.

* refactor(native-chat): a stopped child ends on the one reading of its stop

The eviction step reads a stop's result through `stopAgentSessionProviderRoot` and hands that
verdict to the child's ending, so the host never forms a second view of whether the root is gone.
Every ending carries it: a stop's comes from that reading, an exit's root is gone by definition,
and a failed re-attach passes what its release saw. The end-of-child record can therefore also
carry a stop whose root was not seen to go, which nothing ends on yet.

* feat(native-chat): the host says it accepts a send before any agent has it

The host now lists agent-session.accepted-send.v1 among its own runtime capabilities, the same
string capable clients already send. A client can then tell a host that answers a send at
acceptance, and admits a Stop with no writer before a turn starts, from an older one that still
restarts the agent inside the send. Additive: an older client ignores a capability it does not
know.

* refactor(native-chat): an attach never opens a journal of its own

The attach adopts the conversation's open journal, which outlives it, so it no longer opens one
for a direct caller either. That leaves nothing for a failed adopted import to close, and the flag
that told the two cases apart is gone. Tests that attach without a host open the conversation the
way a host does.

* fix(native-chat): a moved fence resends nothing on a host that accepts first

The outbox treated any fence change as a new owner: it dropped the answer of a send in flight,
queued that send to go out again under the same id, and unblocked a refused head. On an older
host that is how a send the restart refused, unrecorded, gets another try. On a host that records
every send before it starts an agent, a fence moves because that start ran, so the same rule
resent into every failed start. With a fence stamped on every frame, that became a loop.

The outbox now reacts to a fence change only when the host has not advertised that it accepts a
send before any agent has it. On such a host, only a Retry or a new send goes out, and a failed
start reaches the client as a rejected message it keeps with its Retry. Against an older host, or
before one has answered, the outbox behaves as it did. Desktop and paired web share this hook.

* refactor(native-chat): a child's end says whether the user or the host stopped it

The end-of-child record's cause now tells a user's Stop from the host stopping the child for a
cause of its own: `user-stop` and `host-stop` replace `stop`. The delivery loop goes on after a
user's Stop, as before, and fails the start it was waiting on after a host stop, with the one
error row and every queued message rejected, in the stop's reason when it gave one. The reason
stays description only. Stop passes `user-stop`; nothing passes `host-stop` yet.

* fix(native-chat): a chat whose only work is a queued message is not offered for resume

A message accepted while the agent was starting counts as working in the chat, and quit rejects it
as never sent. The teardown snapshot read the same working rule, so a relaunch offered to resume a
chat whose agent never had the message. The snapshot now reads only what was handed over.

* fix(native-chat): the conversation outlives its agent

Opening a chat no longer starts its agent. A conversation is reached through one host
accessor that opens its journal at rest, and a send is what starts the agent, through
the delivery loop. One idle sweep, every five minutes, stops an agent that has been
quiet for thirty minutes and owes no work, then drops an open journal handle that is
only a cache. Its record, tab, status row and readers stay.

- hold and release are no-ops; hold still builds the host for shipped mobile builds.
- The holders, the holds, the release clock and the exit respawn are deleted.
- Options, the model list, the goal and the context meter answer at rest; a model pick
  at rest is recorded as intent for the next start.
- Compact, rewind, clear and goal changes start the agent first. A send does too when
  a rewind is still in doubt after the conversation opens.
- Orchestration routes mail and group addresses on ownership (the record plus the chat
  tab), not on whether the process runs. An open dispatch keeps its worker running.
- The restart continuation is a send; Resume all holds each slot until the message is
  handed over or rejected.
- A read error never replaces a loaded transcript, and shows the host's own words.

* test(native-chat): type the queued-message fixtures in the resume-offer tests

* fix(native-chat): a start that dies while a message waits on it is that message's failed start

Opening a chat's tab starts an agent for the view, and a send accepted meanwhile waits on it. When
that start died, its exit wrote the start's error row and left the message queued, so the delivery
loop started a second agent into the same failure and wrote a second row. A child's end now records
where the conversation's journal stood, and the loop settles a message accepted before a failed
start ended with that start: one row, under its key, and no second start. A message sent after the
failure still gets a fresh start.

* fix(native-chat): a request that failed reads as failed

A structured chat whose only message the agent's start refused read as a
green finish, and a cancelled structured turn did too: the host published a
verdict only for turn records, and structured rows carried no `interrupted`.

The host projection now reads the session's latest request: its turn's
outcome, or `failure` for a send the agent or its start refused. A send
that was withdrawn, or left undelivered by a restart or a close, fails
nobody and makes nothing listable. The ingest publishes `interrupted` as the
hook lanes do, and every reader decodes the verdict through one accessor, so
a failure reads Failed on the dot, the rollups, history and `worktree ps`,
behaves like a cancellation in every clean-finish policy, and notifies as
"failed".

* docs(native-chat): say what an attach's open conversation and unconfirmed ids are now

* test(native-chat): a verdict change republishes the mobile status projection

* refactor(native-chat): the store's retention trigger keeps its flag compare

A verdict change always moves the completion clock the same check already
reads, so a second verdict compare there caught nothing new.

* test(native-chat): a user message the provider journaled keeps its session listed

* test(native-chat): pin what a failed start settles, and what a resume offer names

A view's child that dies while a sent message waits settles that message only when it died starting
and no child has taken its place: a proven child's crash, or a second start since, gets the message
delivered. The resume offer names the handed-over message, never a newer one still queued.

* test(native-chat): the failed-start pins fail on what the message became, not on a timeout

* fix(native-chat): a restart offer ends when the chat's agent starts again

The offer used to end only when the chat's newest user message changed,
because opening a chat started its agent and that start could not be told
apart from real activity. Opening a chat starts nothing now, so the host
reads the fact it already publishes: a chat's status row goes from not
host-owned to host-owned exactly when its agent is started. At that edge the
offer and any failure record for the chat are withdrawn, unless the start is
a resume action's own (its continuation is the oldest undelivered message).

A continuation and a message racing to be first are decided at acceptance:
the continuation is refused, quietly and with nothing filed, when any other
message was accepted since the restart. A failed continuation start leaves
the offer retryable, and each resume action sends its own message id.

Deleted: the newest-user-message comparison, its journal reader, the
continuation filter, and the failure ledger's own "answered by the chat"
check. The marker still carries its message id for one release, so the
previous build can read it.

* fix(runtime): end a transcript stream when its client unsubscribes

Desktop: the IPC subscription controller was dropped as soon as the streaming
handler returned, which for most streams is right after it binds. A later
runtime:unsubscribe then found nothing to abort, so the host kept the subscriber
and derived and sent every publish to a channel no one listened to. The controller
now lives until the renderer unsubscribes, resubscribes the same id, or goes away.

Mobile: disposing an agentSession.subscribe stream now sends agentSession.unsubscribe
with the stream's frame id, so the host ends that subscriber and leaves a sibling
stream on the same socket running. The direct path now passes the frame id the relay
path already passed.

* fix(native-chat): a late provider-session update keeps a failed recovery record failed

A provider-session heartbeat that rewrites a completed recovery record kept
its interrupted flag but dropped the outcome it was copied with, so a live
failed checkpoint read as a clean finish until the next status write.

* test(orchestration): the preamble's host stub is typed, not cast

The preamble send now takes only what it reads of the host, the send, the settlement wait and the
record's fence, so its test builds that host with real types instead of `as never`.

* test(native-chat): the terminal-bell check asserts the renamed verdict field

The bell notification test still checked for agentInterrupted, which no
longer exists, so it could not catch a verdict leaking into a bell dispatch.

* fix(native-chat): a failed turn ranks like a completion for attention

Attention readers (completion time, Smart Sort, sticky retention, Cmd+J
Recent) now demote only a turn the user stopped. A failure is news the
user has not seen, so it keeps its completion time, ranks in the Done
class, stays retained after its pane goes away, and a retained failure
reads failed in the worktree rollup instead of done. Clean-finish
policy (hibernation, pane ownership, the value moment) still treats a
failure like a stop.

The retention trigger compares verdicts again: success -> failure no
longer moves the completion clock.

* fix(native-chat): one fact ends a restart offer: the chat moved on since the restart

The offer is live while no other message has been accepted in the chat since the
restart and its agent has not proved a start since. The offer list, the resume's
reservation check and the continuation's acceptance check all read that one fact,
so a message whose start then failed withdraws the offer too, and a stale click
finds nothing to act on.

The fact is read off the conversation's open handle, which the restart closed, so
it is retired durably whenever it may have changed: a message accepted, a start
proven. A close and reopen within the same run therefore cannot bring the offer
back. A continuation rejected before it reached the agent does not count, so a
retry after a failed start still runs.

Deleted: the quit-time gate on withdrawal, which changed nothing because the
withdrawal and the quit's own offer write share one queue; the per-action
"withdrawn" flag and the separate acceptance check it paired with.

* test(native-chat): an older build reads the restart offer this build records

The offer lives in a file the previous release reads after a downgrade. Pin that
against the pinned release's own capsule, and run the lane when the marker or the
capsule changes.

* fix(native-chat): read a restart offer against where the journal stood when it was taken

"Since the restart" was read off the conversation's open handle, which the idle
sweep closes: after a reopen, a message the user had already sent looked older
than the handle and the withdrawn offer came back.

The offer now records the journal position (epoch and sequence) at the moment
it is taken, and a message accepted after that position, or a journal on another
epoch, means the chat moved on. That is derived from the journal, so it holds
across any number of closes and reopens. An older build's offer has no position;
only a start withdraws it. Because the message half is now durable, the offer is
no longer rewritten in the recovery file on every accepted message; a proven
start still writes it, since only the host that saw the start knows of it.

* test(native-chat): wait for the listing's retire write before reading the recovery file

* refactor(native-chat): every journal row states which turn it belongs to

Rows gain a turn scope stated by the write that creates them: the open root
turn, or the conversation. A queued message takes its scope from its handover.
Rows stored before scopes existed are placed on replay by the root turn open
when they were created, so no persisted state is needed for them. Rewind keeps
each retained row's scope and producer, so a subagent's row stays its own.

* fix(native-chat): keep the terminal-backed chat's read error over its local echoes

Messages winning over a read error is right for the structured chat, whose read retries and whose
messages came from the transcript. The terminal-backed view assembles its list from local echoes
too (a launch prompt, a pending send), so a failed read there showed only those bubbles and no
error. Only the structured pane now keeps messages over an error.

* fix(native-chat): a start retries the exit settlement a failed journal write left owed

An agent exit whose journal settlement write failed releases the lease latched until a retry lands.
Reopening the chat used to be that retry; with reveal now only opening the journal, nothing retried
it before the next app launch, and every send was refused. The start the send needs now runs the
retry first, where the attach would.

* fix(native-chat): a failed main agent reads failed while its subagents still work

The verdict is now read from the main agent's own state, not the folded
row: a main agent that is done and failed has a verdict even while its
subagents keep the row working. Without mainAgent (history, worktree ps,
older hosts) the old combined-done rule stands.

Display marks the verdict through agentVerdictDisplayMark: a failure
outranks every combined state on the agent's dot, label, tab badge,
dashboard and activity rows; a stop marks only a done row, so a
successful or stopped main agent with live subagents still reads
working. Subagent rows keep their own state. The worktree card, terminal
tab and Cmd+J rollups share one pane fold and rank a pending question,
then failed, then working, monitoring, interrupted and done.

worktree ps publishes the main agent's outcome on a working row, and the
mobile mirror reads it. The store's change check, the paired-client
mirror's equality and its epoch now see a verdict change on a working
row, which otherwise moves no state or clock and left the worktree card
reading working. Clean-finish policy is unchanged: a working row is never
hibernated and has no completion time.

* perf(native-chat): answer the owner check without opening the chat

Worktree activation calls agentSession.handoffStatus for every chat tab in the worktree, and the
answer comes from the session record alone. Reaching it through the accessor opened each resting
chat's journal (a full read, the crash-boundary write and a restored status publish), then kept it
open for the idle window. It now checks the record and the adapter's support, as before this series,
and opens nothing.

* fix(native-chat): a read waiting on the session lock opens nothing once quit began

The accessor checked for quit before queueing the open, so a read queued behind a session task ran
its open after teardown had begun and indexed a journal no teardown step would close. The check now
runs at the open itself.

* test(native-chat): pin stated turn scopes, the upcast of unscoped rows, and rewind attribution

* fix(native-chat): /compact is a message the chat sends, run as a turn of its own

The conversation command RPC now accepts /compact into the queue like any
send and answers once it is handed over. The delivery loop opens the command's
own turn, starts the provider on it, and waits for the provider's end off the
session's queue, so messages typed meanwhile are held and delivered after it,
even when it fails. It settles by re-reading the journal: a child that died
meanwhile already wrote the verdict. Stop ends the command at once. The 180 s
completion window, the unconfirmed row and the recovery of an older build's
compaction record are gone; that record no longer gates anything. On Codex the
provider turn the command opens is claimed into the command's turn.

* fix(native-chat): read a failed resume's chat before calling it retryable

Whether a failed resume is retryable is the offer's own rule: the chat has not moved on since the
restart, read from its journal. The failure list read it only for a chat already open, so once the
idle sweep closed a chat the user had moved on in, its failure showed Retry again, and the click did
nothing. The list now opens the failed chats first, as the offer list does.

* test(native-chat): type the provider event sink the settlement test reaches for

* docs(native-chat): the worktree ps outcome comment no longer claims old hosts send it

The field is new: an old host sends no outcome at all, so a reader falls
back to interrupted. The removed clause said old hosts send it on done
rows, which never shipped.

* fix(native-chat): say the structured read keeps trying only where it does

The structured pane's "Orca keeps trying to load it" line never showed: the view state filled in an
untranslated fallback whenever the read error had no text, and the empty state prefers any message.
The view state now leaves the message out, so the structured pane shows that line and the
terminal-backed pane its own translated one. Mobile's structured lane does not resubscribe after an
error frame, so it no longer makes the claim.

* fix(native-chat): rows group under the turn their record names, not the one above them

Each row's turn is the turn its stated scope names, anchored on the entry
that opened it, or on the turn itself when the provider opened it unasked.
So /compact groups its own rows and the previous turn is untouched, a message
typed into a running turn joins it, and a provider-resumed turn folds under
its own Worked-for. A row reporting how a turn ended, an error or the
compaction separator, never folds. Desktop and mobile read the same keys; a
host that states no scope keeps today's positional grouping.

* test(native-chat): await the send's settlement instead of polling for the start

The at-rest send tests polled for the provider start with vi.waitFor's one-second default, which a
loaded machine outran. They now await the host's own settlement of the message.

* docs(native-chat): the status-store listing rule names provider-journaled user messages

* fix(native-chat): a restart offer resumes any time after the quit, and knows its own continuations

The continuation's message id was dated by the quit, and the ledger refuses a new id dated more than
a day back, so Resume or Retry a day after quitting was always refused (on main too). It is now
dated by the resume action.

Telling a rejected continuation from the user's own message read the operation ledger, whose rows
expire after about a day; after that a failed resume stopped being retryable. The offer now
records the continuation each action sends on its own capsule entry, bounded to the newest 16, so
the ids end with the offer. The ledger read is deleted.

* fix(native-chat): a /compact is not a request the sidebar, notifications or restart resume report

The sidebar's prompt, preview, verdict and instant, the turn-completion feed,
and the restart-resume marker read past a conversation command and its turn to
the last real request, so a /compact neither notifies nor re-dates the row,
and a command in flight is never offered as work to resume. An older client
shown a command's turn in the legacy form names the session's own agent.

* fix(orchestration): route no mail to a structured worker its orchestration released

A structured worker is routed on ownership, and a resting worker's lease is released, so ownership
held while its chat tab stayed listed. A worker the coordinator abandoned and then released, found
at rest by the release, therefore still took peer mail and @worktree: broadcasts, and each one
restarted its agent. Routing now also reads the orchestration's own resource row: once it is
released, direct mail, group addressing and worker-show's addressable answer drop the worker, as
they would a terminal worker whose terminal closed. The chat tab stays, and nothing new is stored.

* fix(native-chat): a failed retry names the user's prompt, not Orca's continuation

A resume's continuation is written to the chat before its start, so after a failed attempt the chat's
newest user message is that rejected continuation. A second failure then showed Orca's own restart
text as the chat's prompt. A retry now keeps the prompt its first failure named.

* test(native-chat): pin what a conversation command's admission refuses at rest and at handover

* test(native-chat): tests merged from the base state which turn their rows belong to

* fix(native-chat): a refused send notifies failed through the completion feed

The host's completion feed followed only the newest turn, so a send the
agent or its start refused, which creates no turn, read Failed on its row
but sent no notification. The feed now follows the session's latest
request, read from the projection the status feed already makes for the
commit: a turn keeps its id, a refused send is named by its journal item
key. It announces only while the session is idle, as the row reports a
verdict, so queued sends refused one commit at a time notify once, and a
withdrawn send falls back to a request already announced.

* fix(orchestration): read the released row optionally, as the authority does

worker-show's observation called the row lookup directly, which a runtime double without it threw on
and failed the structured tab-retirement release.

* chore(native-chat): one import per module and no unexplained casts in the turn-scope changes

* test(claude): pin which turn a Claude row joins, including a subagent's after the turn ends

* fix(native-chat): the status bar drops a restart offer the chat moved on from

The renderer re-read the host's restart offer only when a failed chat showed activity, so after a
message withdrew a pending offer the host answered no chats while the status bar kept counting one,
and clicking it opened nothing. The same watch now covers pending offers: a status change in an
offered chat asks the host again, once.

* fix(native-chat): a refused steer is read from the turn its handover named

The latest-request reader decided whether a refused send had joined a running turn by comparing
host clocks: its handover time against the previous turn's end. The handover row now states the
turn it delivered into, so the reader reads that instead and the clock comparison goes. A journal
written before handover rows stated a turn is scoped on replay from the turn open when each row
was written, which can differ from the clock reading only when a send and a turn's end share a
millisecond.

* fix(mobile): the native-chat controller contract carries the turn journal

The controller and overlay already pass nativeChatTurnJournal, but the
contract type never declared it, so mobile failed to typecheck.

* fix(native-chat): the live turn is the running turn, not the newest user row

A turn the provider opened on its own (a background wake, a resumed turn)
anchors on its own record, but the list still treated the newest user row
as the live turn. While such a turn ran, the settled user turn before it
lost its duration and the running turn's own rows were drawn as settled,
so its tool calls lost their live state.

nativeChatTurnMembership now answers both questions from the turn record:
each row's turn, and the live turn (the running root turn's anchor, else
the newest user row, which is also all an unscoped host has). Desktop and
mobile key liveness, the timing clock and the live status's row on it.

* test(native-chat): a turn the provider opened keeps its own clock

Pins that the local turn clock follows the live turn, so a wake after a
settled turn does not restart that turn's clock when no host durations
are recorded.

* fix(native-chat): a running turn no message opened draws its status on no row

Its live status belongs to the transcript-tail indicator alone. Once it
settles, its duration draws at its first row as before; a running turn a
message opened still draws on that message.

* fix(native-chat): every copy of a row carries the main agent's own status

History entries, sleep records and `worktree ps` rows carried a flattened
top-level `outcome`, copied under different gates and without the main agent's
clock. They now carry `mainAgent` (state, outcome, stateStartedAt), the type
the live row already persists and sends, and every copy site takes it with
`interrupted` through one function, `agentVerdictFields`.

- The accessor reads `mainAgent` then the legacy flag; the mobile mirror
  matches it line for line.
- Sleep records admit `mainAgent` with `normalizeMainAgentStatusField`, so a
  malformed value drops the field, never the record.
- Mobile dates a main agent that failed under live subagents by its own clock,
  as desktop does, and its row equality compares `mainAgent`.
- The activity feed reads a history entry's own `mainAgent` instead of
  rebuilding one; the sync key and history equality compare it.

* test(native-chat): pin the worktree ps verdict across host and phone versions

Pairs the real v1.4.212 host and phone row reader with this build: an old phone
reads a new host's rows by `interrupted`, a new phone reads an old host's rows
(no `mainAgent`) the same way, and a new phone reads a failure under live
subagents as Failed, dated by `mainAgent.stateStartedAt`. The release checkout
now carries the phone's self-contained row reader, and the lane runs when the
`worktree ps` row producers change.

* test(mobile): name the parity table's row for its role

* test(native-chat): a roster of idle or finished children does not keep an agent awake

The sweep reads owed background work through the shared child-work liveness that upstream's
release clock adopted; a child that went idle or finished is not work the agent still owes.

* fix(native-chat): a request that settles while the user is asked something notifies once

The completion edge waited for an idle session, and a pending prompt (including a
subagent's approval) is not idle. Structured chat has no other attention producer,
so a main turn that finished while a subagent waited on the user sent nothing
until the prompt was answered.

The edge now waits only on owed work (a running turn or an unanswered send), which
the projection reports even beneath a pending prompt. A request that settles with
a prompt pending announces once; the renderer words it "needs input" from the
host status mirror's `attention`, and answering the prompt keeps the same request
identity, so it does not announce again. The wire shape is unchanged.

* fix(orchestration): a task dispatched into a resting structured worker keeps it running

The sweep's open-dispatch check read only the worker-start dispatch that owns the worker's terminal
resource, so a task later dispatched to the same worker (orchestration dispatch --to, which writes a
dispatch with no worker row) did not count: after thirty quiet minutes the worker was stopped while
that task was open, and its coordinator read exited. Any unsettled dispatch addressed to the worker's
process incarnation now counts, derived from the existing rows.

* fix(native-chat): a command's wait ends when its child does

The delivery loop waited for a /compact only on the adapter's compaction
tracker, which learns of the child's end only on some exit paths: a Codex
exit or close, and a Claude close, never reach it. The wait then never
ended, so nothing queued behind the command was delivered again, Stop had
no child to answer through, and the tracker's leftover entry refused the
next /compact.

Every way a child ends passes endProviderChild, so the host now offers a
per-child end signal there. The loop races the tracker against it (the
dead-generation settlement has already written the command's verdict),
and on that end asks every adapter to release the command, so a later
command runs and no later provider turn is claimed into the dead one.
The adapters' own exit-time releases were unreachable (Codex) or covered
one path of several (Claude), and are removed.

The Codex RPC test harness moves to its own module so the exit can be
driven through the real adapter's connection callback.

* fix(native-chat): keep refusing sends during a command on an older host

An older host's controller still refuses a send while a conversation
command runs, so dropping the client's block turned every message typed
during /compact into a 'not sent' row with Retry there. The block stays
for hosts that do not run the command as a send-path turn, and goes only
for those that do.

The signal is one the client already holds: a host that runs /compact on
the send path states a turn scope on every journal row it writes, the
same fact turn membership uses to tell it from an older host. Both now
read it from one predicate. On an empty conversation, or one whose rows
all predate the upgrade, the signal is absent until the command's own
entry streams in, so that brief window keeps the old local refusal; no
capability or wire field is added.

* docs(native-chat): comments stop describing the hold this PR removed

Eight comments still justified orderings and teardown choices by a viewer or dispatch hold that
pinned the provider child. Nothing holds any more; the orderings stand for the binding's redrive
subscription and parked mail, and a chat's agent runs from a send until the idle sweep rests it.
Comment-only.

* fix(native-chat): the completion says when the user is being asked

A request that settles while a prompt waits on the user was worded "needs input"
from the renderer's status-feed mirror. Remote clients receive the status and
completion streams over separate sockets, so they can arrive in either order and
the wording could be wrong both ways.

The host already knows at emit time, so the completion now carries an optional
`awaitingUser: true` in that case and omits it otherwise. The renderer words the
notification from that field alone and no longer reads the status mirror. Old
clients ignore the field and word by outcome; old hosts never send it.

* fix(native-chat): a restart offer keeps the start its own continuation made

Whose start ended an offer was decided at read time, from whether the offer's continuation was
still the queued message. Once the provider refused that continuation, the child it had started
read as someone else's start, so the offer ended and its failure showed no Retry. The delivery
loop now records which queued message a start is for on the in-memory child, and the child's end
carries it; the offer counts a start as its own when that message is one of its continuations.

* fix(native-chat): a rewound turn still names the message that opened it

A Codex rewind rebuilds the epoch without submissions, so each sent message survives only under
its provider key. The kept turn records still named the submission key, so each turn anchored on
itself and its rows grouped apart from the message that opened it. The rewind now renames the
turn's opener along with the message.

* fix(native-chat): Stop ends only the command it names

Stop on a command turn abandoned whatever compaction the session had pending, so a late Stop for
an earlier /compact cancelled the one running now. The tracker now ends a command only when the
Stop names its turn, and the cancel reply reports whether it did.

* fix(native-chat): an agent gets a full idle window after its owed work ends

The sweep measured quiet only from the last journal row, so once a subagent, command, monitor or
dispatch that had outlived the window ended, the agent was stopped at the next tick. A child can
read done before the lead's wake-up turn writes anything, and stopping in that gap loses the
wake-up. The sweep now counts owed work it observes as activity, which gives the agent the full
window afterwards, as the release clock it replaced did.

* test(claude): the options-read fixture runs a live child

The fixture marked its conversation running with a hasProviderChild field the
session type does not have, so the read took the at-rest path and refused a
session with no record. It now carries a child, which is what the read checks.

* test(native-chat): host tests reach its collaborators through a typed seam

The rest-test rig and three test files read the host's private members with
Reflect.get and cast the result. The host now exposes one test-only accessor,
collaboratorsForTests(), and the subscribers class a subscriberCountForTests()
beside its existing retainedActivityCountForTests(), so the tests are checked
against the real types and the casts are gone.

* fix(worktree-status): a departed agent's failure yields to live work on the worktree card

A retained failed agent has no expiry, so ranking it with a live failure pinned the card to Failed over other panes' live work. It now ranks below working, monitoring and permission, and above every finished outcome.

* refactor(orchestration): one owner answers a structured worker's custody

Routing, group addressing, worker-show and the idle sweep each composed their own reading of
whether orchestration still holds a structured worker, so each new obligation or retirement state
had to be added to every reader. structured-worker-custody now derives both answers from the
worker-terminal list state coordinators see in worker-list: addressable is owned and not released,
and owed work is an active custody or an unsettled task dispatched to the same incarnation. The
owner's state is read through the remote dispatch attachment too, as the terminal transfer lookup
already does. Behaviour is unchanged; a settled worker awaiting its coordinator still rests.

* refactor(orchestration): owed work is an open dispatch on the worker's incarnation

A supervised worker's own dispatch context stays open exactly while the worker is active, so the
separate active-custody branch only repeated it. Owed work is now one fact, which also states the
policy that a worker awaiting its coordinator's decision may rest, and both custody decisions are
written once at the top of the module.

* docs(agent-status): a departed agent's failure ranks below live work on the worktree card

* fix(native-chat): a restart offer knows its continuations by a tag in their id

The offer recorded each continuation id in a list on its capsule entry, capped at 16, and a running
action's id in memory. Both could disagree with the journal: past the cap an old rejected
continuation read as the chat moving on, and a crash during a retry restored the failure's older
entry, which lacked the retry's id. Each continuation id now carries a tag derived from the offer
(its teardown and chat), then the action's own part, so any continuation of this offer, queued or
rejected, is recognised from the journal row and the marker alone. The persisted list, its cap and
the in-memory action map are deleted; the agent-start withdrawal keeps an offer whose own
continuation the start was for, read against the stored marker.

* test(runtime): the legacy-worker reveal test judges its stale snapshot inside the wait

The tui-idle probe reads through readTerminal, which now awaits the structured
worker check before the PTY read, so the probe's snapshot request starts a
microtask later. vi.waitFor missed it on its first check and polled again at
50 ms, the same moment the wait's own 50 ms timeout fired. The stale snapshot
then resolved after the wait had already timed out, so the test passed without
judging it, and the rejection landed before any handler was attached. Vitest
reported that as an unhandled error and failed the shard.

Polling every 1 ms sees the request within a few ms, so the snapshot is judged
while the wait is still pending.

* fix(native-chat): a message held behind /compact is drawn where it was handed over

A message typed while /compact runs was drawn above the compaction's result, between
itself and its own answer. The reducer kept every item at the sequence and timestamp of
the row that created it, and a queued message is created at acceptance, long before the
command it waits behind writes its result. The phone orders by that sequence and the
desktop by that timestamp, so both put the message first.

A queued message now takes its position from its handover row, the same row that already
states its turn scope. Everything the agent did before the handover, a command it waited
behind included, draws above it. This holds for every held message, not only /compact's,
and needs no client change: every client, older builds included, reads the position the
host publishes. A live batch already carries the item when its dispatch row lands, and
history pages cut the reduced timeline by sequence, so paging stays contiguous.

* fix(native-chat): a phone's send during /compact answers without waiting out the compaction

A client that predates accepted-send replies, which is every phone build, has its send
reply held until the host hands the message over. A message sent during /compact is not
handed over until the compaction ends, so the phone's 15 s request timeout fired first
and showed the message as unconfirmed.

That wait now also ends once the message is queued behind a running command. This is
read from the journal's running turn and needs no new state. Every other wait still
ends at the handover: behind a starting child or an ordinary turn, and for restart
resume, the command front door and orchestration, which keep the plain handover point.

* perf(native-chat): a rewind places provider items with one pass over the merged rows

A Codex rewind gives each provider item the old epoch never held the turn record for its
provider turn. It found that record by scanning every merged row, restoring each row's
body, once per provider item. That is quadratic, and it runs on the host's main thread
up to the journal's 10,000-row cap, twice per rewind. A rewind record written before
rows carried their scope holds no scope for any provider item, so it paid the full cost.

The merge now indexes turn records by provider turn id once, keeping the first match as
the scan did, and each provider item looks its record up.

* fix(native-chat): a view never restarts a chat whose last start failed

A Claude chat whose CLI exits during startup left one red row per start, and
every time a view bound to it (the chat opening right after its create died,
or the user switching back to it) the hold started the CLI again, so the same
launch-failure row repeated. Only a send retries a failed start now, the same
rule provider-exit recovery already applied; the rule lives in one predicate
the hold, exit recovery and the delivery loop share.

* fix(native-chat): a message waiting behind /compact is drawn after it until it is sent

A message sent while /compact runs is placed where it was handed over. It was still
drawn where it was accepted until then. /compact writes its result one step before the
handover, so for that step the waiting message sat above the compaction's separator.

A message the host accepted but has not handed over is not part of the conversation
yet, so both clients now draw it after everything the agent has done. The shared
projection moves it to the end, which is the order the phone draws. The desktop ranks
it with the other not-yet-sent rows, after the streaming preview. At handover it takes
its place from its handover row, which is also after the separator, so it never
appears above the compaction it waited for.

* fix(native-chat): the idle sweep reads owed work every tick

Owed work counted as activity, but the sweep read it only once the idle window had elapsed, so it
refreshed the clock at most once a window. Work that ended just before the next read left the
agent to be stopped at that read, moments after the work ended, which is the gap the refresh was
meant to cover. The sweep now reads owed work on every tick for a started agent, so the window
always runs from the last tick that saw work owed.

* fix(native-chat): a continuation handed to the agent stays sent

The offer read its own continuation as not reaching the agent while its dispatch was pending, which
also covered one already handed over and still unanswered. When the wait for that answer ended first,
the failure it filed read as retryable, and a retry sent a second continuation to an agent that may
have acted on the first. Only a continuation still queued, or rejected, is now read as unsent.

* test(native-chat): start the child the loop waits on with an attach, not a second view

A view no longer starts a child whose last start failed, so the R2 case that
waits on a child started since the failure now gets that child from a client
attach, the one non-send starter left.

* fix(native-chat): settle a gone generation's turn wherever a conversation opens

A send that opens a chat this process had not read yet (after a crash, from a
phone or the CLI) went through the delivery open, which never settled what the
dead generation left running; only the read restore and a successful acquire
did. When the send's start then failed, the turn stayed running for every
reader. The settlement now runs in the one journal open, at the crash boundary,
for every opener except an acquisition, which settles from the evidence it read
before its reserve; the read restore's separate step is gone.

* test(native-chat): prove the next child's start settles the turn an earlier child left

The R1 case lost its only settlement assertion when the latch it checked was
deleted. It now seeds the running turn the earlier child left and asserts it
ends at the exit's receipt, with the exit's row, before the message is handed
to the new child.

* test(native-chat): count a failed start's rows by row, not by text

Comparing the set of texts passed when two different rows carried the same
words, which is the duplicate the test exists to catch.

* test(cross-version): load the phone row readers without mobile's toolchain

Vite transforms a file against its nearest tsconfig, and mobile/tsconfig.json
extends expo/tsconfig.base.json, which the root-only cross-version lane never
installs. The worktree ps verdict suite imported the current phone row reader
from mobile/ directly, so CI failed with TSConfckParseError before any test ran.

The harness now imports a copy of the working-tree reader placed under the
checkout cache, where the root tsconfig applies, as it already does for the
release checkout's copy. Both readers are still the real files.

* test(cross-version): keep the checkout path-guard message and justify the copy import's cast

* fix(native-chat): a command ends only by its own provider answer or its child's end

Stop no longer settles a conversation command. It interrupts it like any turn,
and when the provider cannot take that (Codex has not opened the command's turn
yet, or Claude refuses the interrupt) it stops the child, whose dead-generation
settlement writes the verdict.

The pending command now lives on the provider child's own session instead of an
adapter-wide map keyed by session, so it dies with the child and nothing has to
release it. Claude's /compact is sent under a uuid the slot records, and only a
root result naming that input (or naming none) ends it; its outcome is read with
the ordinary result reading, so a stopped /compact is a cancellation.

* fix(native-chat): a command's settle answers its message before ending its turn

The two writes are not one batch. Writing the message's answer first means a
crash between them leaves a running command turn, which the stale-turn sweep
already settles, instead of an ended turn whose message reads as in flight
forever. The settle now writes only while the command turn is still running.

* fix(native-chat): "Worked for" counts from the handover, not the send

A message held behind /compact, or behind a cold start, used to count the wait
as the agent's work, although its row is drawn at the handover. Every handed-over
submission's turn, the command's own included, now starts at the handover row's
instant, falling back to the send time for a host that recorded none.

* test(native-chat): give the failed-start and stale-turn waits a loaded runner's budget

* test(native-chat): the interrupted create's own retry continues again

The merge of main's lease-latch fix replaced that test's retry of the interrupted create, under its
own operation id, with a fresh start whose result nothing read. That fresh start passes with the
released-reservation continuation deleted, so the case the fix exists for went untested. The retry
and its assertion are main's again.

* docs(native-chat): three comments that still had views starting agents

A start with nothing queued now comes from a command, goal change or rewind; an interrupted compaction
left alone would refuse every send, so no agent would ever start to finish it; and a current host
raises the unattached read refusal only once quit began, with the attach window belonging to an older
host.

* test(native-chat): pin the open's and the send's start and row counts, however the view binds

Opening a fresh chat whose starts fail makes one start and one row, with two
views bound before or after the create's child died; one send makes one more
of each.

* fix(native-chat): a second Stop on a command ends its child; one compaction verdict for every provider

A Stop's note now names itself in its key, so a later Stop on a command still
running reads, from the journal, that the provider was already asked and never
answered, and stops the child instead of interrupting again. Nothing is held in
memory for it.

Adds the rule both translators will read a compaction's end by: only a
compaction the provider reported is a success; none after Orca's interrupt is a
cancellation; anything else is a failure. A real Claude capture, pinned as a
fixture, is why: a stopped /compact ends in the same success result as a
finished one.

* test(native-chat): a reader's open settles the turn a failed exit settlement left running

An exit whose settlement write failed leaves its turn running in the open journal. PR 1's open now
settles it, and this pins the two reads that reach it here: a reader reopening a chat the idle
sweep closed, and a read that opens the chat before the restart restore reaches it.

* test(native-chat): the view-start test's starting window outlasts two subscriptions on a loaded runner

A subscription reads the conversation before it returns, so under load the two views took longer
than the create child's 300 ms start, which then exited before the test checked that it had not.
The child now takes a second to fail.

* fix(native-chat): settle a gone generation's turn at every open but an acquisition's

The journal open skipped the settlement whenever the lease read reserved or
live, to leave an acquisition's own open to the acquisition. But a lease a
crashed process left in recovery also reads live, until the next acquire
resolves it. A send that opened such a chat, from a phone or the CLI after a
crash on a host that could not prove the old owner gone, skipped the
settlement; when its start then failed, the dead turn stayed running for every
reader. The acquisition now says it is the opener, and every other open
settles, whatever the lease still claims.

* test(native-chat): hold the create's start open until the views bind

The "view binds while the create is still starting" case gave the create a
300 ms head start and asserted the views bound before it died. On a loaded
runner the holds took longer, the create's exit landed first, and the case
failed its own precondition. The create's initialize now waits on a gate the
test releases once the views are bound.

* refactor(native-chat): the provider's translator ends a command's turn; the loop holds no command state

A conversation command is now a turn of the provider child's own journal
pipeline. The adapter-wide tracker, its promise and the loop's settle step are
gone.

- Codex: the translator claims the provider turn that carries the command, scopes
  its rows to the command's turn, and writes the command's end in the same batch
  that settles that turn. Codex's own compaction marker is the success row.
- Claude: the command's turn is the translator's open turn until the result that
  answers the /compact input ends it. The command's own frames, such as the
  continuation summary, its echo and "Compaction canceled.", draw nothing.
- Both read the end with the one compaction rule: success needs the provider's
  report of the compaction; none after Orca's interrupt is a cancellation.
- The message resolves at the provider's receipt, as any send does: the Codex
  ack, or the Claude slash-command waiter on its result. The host writes a
  command's end only when the provider never took it.
- The delivery loop stops while a command's turn runs, and every journal commit
  re-wakes it through the session's serialize, so an end that lands while a step
  decides to stop is never lost. A child that ends first is settled with it.

* test(native-chat): pin a command's end to real /compact frames and to each path it threads

The captured /compact frames drive the Claude translator's command turn: a
finished compaction ends as a success with only the separator drawn; a stopped
one ends as a cancellation with no failure row, and the next send answers in its
own turn; a result naming another input ends nothing. The command's end is
checked at each point the ordinary result path threads through: the reopen latch
after a failure, the settling of a child still working, the context facts the
result reports, and the provider's own error row.

On the host: a message held behind a command is handed over when the command
ends just as the loop stops for it, a refused command settles as a failure and
the loop moves on, and a Claude child that exits mid-command settles the command
and hands what waited to a fresh child.

* test(native-chat): tests merged from the base state which turn their rows belong to

* refactor(native-chat): drop the child-end waiter nothing waits on

A command no longer waits for its child here: its turn ends from the provider's frames or from
that child's settlement, and the delivery loop is woken by the commit. The waiter and its test
were left from the earlier shape.

* fix(native-chat): a command holds the queue only while its child runs it

The delivery loop stopped whenever the journal showed a command's turn running. When the
command's child ended and its settlement could not be written, that turn stayed running with
no child to end it, and the loop's gate kept it from ever starting the next child, which is
what settles a gone generation's leftovers. Every later send was held for good, and Stop had
no child to end.

The gate now holds only while the conversation has a child: with none, the command belongs to
a gone generation, and the loop's start settles it like any turn a dead child left running.

* fix(native-chat): a Claude /compact succeeds only on its compaction boundary

The command's evidence counted Claude's `compact_result: 'success'` status as the compaction
done. That status comes before the boundary that replaces the history, so a Stop landing
between the two read as a finished compaction even though no boundary was ever written. Only
the boundary now counts, as the rule for both providers states; the capture's finished
compaction carries one, so it still reads as a success.

* fix(native-chat): a Claude child's exit says why the turn it ended stopped

When a Claude child exited mid-/compact, the command showed "Worked for 0s" and no reason. The
child's translator ends its open turn the moment the exit is reported, stamped with the exit's
instant, so by the time the exit settlement ran nothing was running. The settlement recognises a
turn the exit already ended by that same instant, but the Claude lifecycle event dropped it on the
way to the host, which then used its own clock, matched nothing, and wrote no row. When the clocks
did agree, the row was scoped to the running turn, of which there was none, so it landed outside
the turn it explained.

The exit's instant now reaches the host, and the exit row belongs to the turn the exit ended:
still running, or ended by the translator at that instant.

* fix(native-chat): a message waiting behind /compact draws below its live activity

A message sent while /compact runs waits on the host until the command ends. Both clients moved
it to the end of the transcript rows, but the running turn's live activity line ("Compacting the
conversation") draws after every row, so the waiting message sat between the command and its own
live status.

A row that is queued, and not what the live turn is for, now draws after that live activity: on
desktop outside the transcript window, below the activity line; on the phone in the list footer,
below the live status. A message whose own start is pending still draws above the activity that
start reports.

* fix(native-chat): only a running command holds a message below its live activity

A message is accepted, then handed over a moment later, and in between it reads as waiting. Every
message waiting behind a live turn drew below that turn's activity line, so an ordinary message
sent while the agent was working crossed below "Thinking" and jumped back up once it was handed
over, on desktop and phone. Only a conversation command's turn holds the queue on the host.

A message now waits below the live activity only while the running turn is one a command opened,
read from the entry that opened it. The phone test also typechecks, which the mobile test ratchet
requires.

* test(codex): the claim test names its notification params as a record

* test(native-chat): a read that reaches a crashed chat before the startup reconcile settles its turn

On desktop the chat on screen at relaunch reads before startup reconciles the leases, while the
dead process's lease still reads live. The open settles the turn it left running anyway, and the
restore that follows finds it settled.

* refactor(native-chat): drop the composer's second error formatter

After the merge with main, every chat write in the composer path reports its
failure as a typed outcome worded by the refusal-notice table, so the send's
catch sees only a local throw. The {code, message} formatter this branch added
for it has no payload left to format, and its claim to be the one way a chat
words a failure is no longer true. The composer send is main's again.

* test(native-chat): pin the reason on a message rejected while its chat was closed

The reopen test checked only that the message reads as not sent; it now also
checks the Retry row carries the host's reason.

* docs(native-chat): drop the removed dispatch hold from six comments

A worker's session no longer takes a dispatch hold, and no release clock
rests a chat by visibility; the agent-launch comments, the abandon test,
the teardown test and the refusal census still said so.

* test(native-chat): rest the owner-status chat through the idle sweep, not a hold

The activation-gate test from #22808 put its chat at rest by holding and
releasing it, and passed the release-clock grace. This branch deleted both,
so the case threw before it reached its assertions. It now moves the host's
clock past the idle window and lets the sweep stop the agent and close the
conversation, then asserts the same owner answer and activation gate.

* fix(native-chat): show the structured pane's retrying line when a read fails

The read transport always hands the pane the host's words, so the error
state's "Orca keeps trying to load it" line, which showed only when there
were none, was never seen: the pane showed the host's text twice, as its
subtitle and on the status line under it. The structured pane now always
says its read keeps retrying, and the host's text stays on the status line.
The terminal-backed chat is unchanged.

* fix(native-chat): a send the provider never received after a restart has no verdict

Restart reconciliation rejects a crash-stranded send that is absent from a
trustworthy provider history with reason 'not_delivered'. Nobody failed that
send, but the verdict allowlist did not name it, so after a crash the chat
read Failed, was listed, and could notify "failed". Give the reason a shared
constant (persisted value unchanged), add it to the no-verdict set, and treat
it as an internal marker so the Retry row no longer shows the raw string.

* fix(native-chat): a failed Codex compaction's late completion writes no turn of its own

Codex ends a failed turn with an error and then still completes it as failed.
The error settled the compaction and released its claim on the provider turn,
so the completion read that turn as an ordinary one and wrote a stray record.
The claim now lasts until the completion, which adds nothing to a command the
error already ended.

* test(native-chat): the mid-command exit case resumes its next child as a real one does

The case's fake started every child as a newly created thread with the same generation. The
store refuses a created link once the conversation has a thread, so the next child's start
failed and wrote its own error row, which landed before or after the case read the journal.
The next child now resumes the thread under its own generation, and the case reads the
journal once the waiting message is delivered, which also proves the loop moved on.

* test(native-chat): wait for a send's background start before the refusal oracle removes its store

An accepted send wakes the delivery loop, which starts the agent in the background. The oracle's teardown disposed the loop but did not wait for that start, so its lease write could create a temp file in the store directory while the directory was being removed, failing the test with ENOTEMPTY about one run in four. The teardown now drains tracked starts before it closes the journals.

* fix(native-chat): a start a message waited on gets one failure row, the delivery loop's

When a queued message's start failed, two writers could report it under the same row: the delivery loop, when the adapter settled the start without proving it, and the exit settlement, when the child's exit landed. The last one won, so the chat's row could name a different cause than the one the message was rejected with, or be written twice.

The exit settlement now writes the start's row only when no message is queued and the loop has not already recorded that start. A start for a command, goal change or rewind, with nothing queued, still gets its row from the exit.

* fix(native-chat): a /compact whose start failed says to run /compact again

The failure-words context named only /clear as a command to retry, so a
/compact whose agent failed to start read "Send your message to try again."
on its row, its rejected message and the command reply. The context now
carries any conversation command; the host derives it from the oldest
message still waiting on the provider, which is the one a failed start
fails first, and the /compact reply names it directly.

* fix(native-chat): a Codex /compact ends only on its turn's completion, below Codex's own error row

Since only turn/completed ends a Codex turn, Codex's turn-ending `error` is a row
inside the still-open command turn, and the failed completion that follows it is
the command's end: completed, outcome failure, at the completion's receipt time.
The command's own "Compaction failed" row was written on that completion too, so a
failed /compact read its reason twice.

The command turn now notes when Codex's turn-ending error for the turn it carries
was written as a row, and its end then adds no second row. A retried stream error
ends nothing and is not counted. The flag that let the error end the command and
kept the claim until the completion is gone with the error-driven end.

A test replays the captured failed compaction from the real app-server through a
claimed command turn.

* test(native-chat): main's crash-turn test states its row's turn, and a dead /compact settles on its recorded exit

Two tests the main merge brought together:
- The crash-turn test from #23456 writes a turn record through the event sink
  without options; every row here states its turn scope, and a turn record's is
  the thread.
- The /compact whose exit settlement could not be written no longer stays running
  until the next start: main now settles an open chat from the exit it recorded, so
  the command reads interrupted before the next message, which is then delivered.

* test(native-chat): main's new journal tests state each row's turn

The crash-turn, stale-turn and sink-queue tests main added wrote rows without a
turn scope, which every item write now states. Rows written inside a running
turn name that turn; the sink-queue batch and a send handed over with no live
turn name the thread.

* fix(native-chat): draw a queued turn's message after the earlier turn's rows

A message sent while A runs is written to the journal when it is sent.
When the provider queues it (Claude answers it after A), A's remaining
rows - its last tool run and its answer - are written after that
message, and the message's own turn opens only after them. Grouping put
those rows in A's turn, but the transcript still drew them in journal
order, below B's bubble and bar, where A's answer read as B's reply. This
is the residual #23671 left open.

A message that opened a turn now draws after the earlier turns' rows the
journal wrote after it, just before its own turn's rows
(nativeChatTurnDrawOrder, returned by nativeChatTurnMembership as
drawOrder). Desktop and mobile both draw in that order. A steer, and a
message that has opened no turn yet, stay where they were written. It
applies on hosts that state turn scopes and, through journal order, on
older ones.

* test(native-chat): run #23026's Stop tests against #23059's command turns

Two of #23026's tests call APIs #23059 changed, and failed after the
merge:

- codex-structured-conversation-stop: a compaction now goes through
  adapter.compact with the command run the host wrote (#23059), not a
  bare turn id, and answers with the provider's receipt. With the command
  claimed, a Stop that names no turn while the compaction's provider turn
  has not opened still interrupts nothing.
- main-agent-working-agreement: a provider row states its turn scope
  (#23059's appendItem contract); the retry and subagent rows are
  conversation-scoped.

* fix(native-chat): typecheck main's Stop and restore-grouping code against #23059

A Stop's compaction interrupt reads the narrowed requested turn, and the
restore-grouping test states whether each row reports its turn's outcome.

Neil 17690e6b9a style: settle oxfmt 0.70 drift and stop formatting vendored licences (#23377)
The oxfmt 0.65 -> 0.70 bump landed without a repo-wide reformat, so 36 files
already in the tree no longer matched what the new version emits. Anyone running
`pnpm format` picked all of them up alongside their own change.

Also excludes `resources/licenses/**`: `oxfmt --write .` was rewriting the
vendored PCRE2 licence, turning its `*` redistribution bullets into `-`. Third
party licence text has to be reproduced verbatim, so formatting must not touch it.

Brennan Benson 98584332a3 fix(native-chat): record which Codex agent produced each journal row (#22532)
* fix(journal): a batch revision restates the producer of each row it revises

The reducer rebuilds a row's producer linkage from its NEWEST revision, and
absence is a positive claim: no agent id means the session's own agent wrote
the row. So any revision written without the stamp hands a subagent's row
back to its parent, permanently.

Three host paths revise rows they did not write, from the render item they
already hold, and all three dropped the stamp:
- answering a prompt re-appended the asker's row with the fence only;
- dead-generation settlement failed running tool calls and cancelled pending
  prompts through a lifecycle batch;
- stale-session settlement on acquire cancelled lost prompts the same way.

The batch path could not carry a producer at all: linkage was removed from
the batch row because one row covers N mutations, with a note that a mixed
batch would have to stamp per mutation. Dead-generation settlement is such a
batch already, and Codex settlement is about to become one. So each item
mutation now names its own producer, inline like the row base. A mutation
that names none falls back to the row's linkage, which is what a batch read
before. Parse sanitizes a bad per-mutation id the same way it does a row's:
the field is dropped and the mutation kept.

No schema version bump. An older host's mutation validator ignores unknown
keys, so it reads a stamped mutation as the session's own, which is exactly
what it shows today. Old journals carry no stamp and read as before.

Turn revisions still carry nothing: a turn is the session's unit of work,
and the live-turn scans rely on a turn row never carrying linkage. The note
recording that invariant is updated to the new write sites.

* fix(native-chat): attribute a Codex subagent's journal rows to the subagent

Codex journals every thread on its app-server connection into the session's
journal, and a spawned subagent's items arrive on the child's own thread.
None of those rows carried producer linkage, so under the journal's rule that
absence means the session's own agent wrote a row, every child's command,
message, reasoning, prompt and status row read as the PARENT's: the parent
could show its child's running command, its child's reasoning as "thinking",
and its child's prose as its own latest line.

The Claude lane's model is reused, not reinvented: the same fields and the
same absence rule. What differs is how the producer is known. Orca opens
exactly one thread per app-server, so any other thread is one Codex spawned.
That decides WHETHER a row is a child's from its first frame, announced or
not, and the thread id is final at once: it is never re-minted the way a
tool-call reference is, so no correction ledger is needed for identity.

- agentId: the child thread id, the same id the status side keys a Codex
  child on.
- parentAgentId: the thread whose stream carried the child's `started`
  activity. Codex emits that item on the spawning agent's own session, so a
  child that spawned a grandchild is named; the session's own thread is not.
  Other activity kinds ride whichever agent acted and are not used.
- producerKind: 'agent'.
- attempt: which run of the child the row's own turn was, counted from the
  child turns the roster already observes; absent on the first run. Taken
  from the row's turn rather than the child's latest, so a persistent shell
  that outlives its turn keeps its run across revisions.
- providerParentRef is omitted: a Codex child's frames carry no parent
  reference of their own beyond the thread id, which is already agentId.

One resolver, owned by the roster (which already owns what is known about
each child thread), is handed to every writer: items, streams, generic and
summary rows, prompts, compactions, goals, and the three settlement batches.
The session-end settlement mixes every thread's rows in one batch, so each
mutation names its own producer. Turn rows stay unstamped: Codex writes them
only for the primary thread.

The spawn-group roster row stays unstamped on purpose: a child's frame can
trigger its write, but it is the parent's list of its children.

The translator's construction moves to a parts module so the translator
stays a router under the line cap, and the item streams reuse one
append-and-publish helper instead of two copies. Children are never swept
at turn end; nothing here changes that.

* test(native-chat): pin Codex subagent attribution at every writer and every parent reader

Two layers, so a stamp that is correct in the store and never read, or read
and never persisted, cannot pass.

The readers, through the real path: translator, deferred sink, on-disk
journal, snapshot. Each is a defect on main: the parent named its child's
running command as its own tool, read its child's reasoning as itself
thinking, showed its child's compaction as its activity line, and quoted its
child's prose as its latest line (checked after closing and reopening the
journal, so the stamp is read back from disk). The transcript still renders
the child's rows.

The writers, through a sink that records the linkage of every plain append,
batch mutation and lifecycle transition: start, streamed checkpoint and
completion of one command all restate the child; a row that beats the spawn
announcement is still the child's; a grandchild names the child that
announced it, while an `interacted` activity names no parent; a follow-up
turn is the child's second run, and a shell that outlives its turn keeps its
own; the exit batch settles each thread's rows under its own producer and
the turn row under none; a child's provider frames, approval and goal rows
are its own; nothing is stamped while the session thread is still opening;
and the spawn-group row stays the parent's.

* test(native-chat): pin linkage forwarding on the sink's lifecycle-transition path

A Codex child's goal row is written through a lifecycle transition, so a sink
that forwarded only the fence there would file the child's goal as the
session's own.

* test(native-chat): type the Codex item fixtures as thread items

* refactor(journal): keep a row's producer across revisions that name none

The reducer took a row's producer linkage from its newest revision, so every
writer that revised a row it did not write - a prompt answer, a dead-generation
or stale-session settlement, the reopen sweep of stale subagent rosters - had to
restate the producer or silently hand a subagent's row to the session's own
agent. Three of those writers had been patched to restate it; the next one to
forget would reintroduce the bug.

Attribution is now fixed by a row's first write. A revision that names no
producer keeps the row's existing linkage; one that names any replaces the
whole bundle, which is how a provisional stamp is still corrected in place. A
row re-created after a tombstone starts with nothing. The reducer runs the same
fold on replay, so the kept producer survives a reopen.

The three restatements are removed. Per-mutation linkage on lifecycle batches
stays: a batch can create a row (a Codex child's prompt, or a child's item
settled before any checkpoint landed) and one batch can mix producers.

* test(journal): pin producer inheritance in the reducer and across a reopen

A revision naming no producer keeps the row's, on the plain item path and in
a batch settling a child's row beside the session's own; one naming any
replaces the bundle wholesale; a tombstone clears it; a stale revision cannot
touch it; and a reopened journal replays it exactly as it was folded live.

* refactor(codex): name the translator's writer factory for what it builds

* docs(codex): say why a settled row names its producer

* test(journal): drop a producer test the stale-revision guards make unreachable

The stale revision is dropped whole by two independent guards before the
inheritance rule runs, so its producer assertion could never fail; the
reducer's own stale-revision tests already cover the drop. Also say what
the batch sink does forward: each mutation's own producer.

Brennan BensonandMerge Sim 2626e2eca4 Make the structured turn lifecycle row durable so completed durations survive (#19695)
* Make the structured turn lifecycle row durable so completed durations survive

A structured-chat turn used to end by tombstoning its running lifecycle item,
which threw away the only durable record of when the turn ended. Completed
"Worked for" labels therefore depended on the renderer having observed the
turn finish, and vanished on reopen.

The lifecycle item is now revised in place, never tombstoned:
- running, with startedAt, at the provider's turn start
- completed or interrupted, with completedAt, at the provider's terminal frame,
  a user stop, or a child exit the host observed
- unverifiable, with no end, when a cold acquire finds a running row from a
  generation whose exit nobody observed

Both timestamps are the execution host's clock at receipt, captured before the
deferred sink, so the completed value is identical on every client and needs
no client clock. Codex history restore uses the provider's own second-granular
endpoints for turns that predate this change. Desktop and mobile read settled
durations off the journal through one shared selector, and anchor the live
counter on the host start with the client's local receipt so a skewed client
clock never leaks into the label. Locally observed durations remain the
fallback for hosts that still tombstone.

Timestamps live inside the existing turnLifecycle field, which old clients
strip, and every working-state consumer keys on state === 'running', so no
capability negotiation is needed.

* native-chat: avoid stale working status on settled turns

* test: align settled turn status expectations

* Name settled lifecycle rows by their terminal state

An interrupted or unverifiable turn must not read as completed for any
consumer that renders status text raw. One shared helper builds the text for
both providers from the lifecycle state.

* test: deduplicate turn lifecycle suites

Each behavior keeps one test; duplicated harnesses and restated cases go.

* Key lifecycle rows to their user item and record the provider's measured duration

A lifecycle row now names the user item that opened the turn by its provider
key, so clients attribute timing explicitly and fall back to journal order
only for rows from older hosts. A provider-initiated turn with no prompt can
no longer claim the previous prompt's duration.

When the provider measures the turn itself (Codex turn.durationMs, Claude
result.duration_ms) the terminal row records it and clients prefer it over the
host interval, so a turn shows the same number live and after a history
restore. Host receipt times remain the live-counter anchor and the fallback.

* Record a turn as a first-class journal item

The turn record is now its own item kind rather than a status row carrying a
lifecycle field: no text to misuse, and the fold matches the durable turn
record other systems keep. Rows that carry it are stamped journal schema v3;
every other row stays v2, so an older host keeps reading them and latches
read-only at the first v3 row instead of truncating the epoch.

Clients that predate the item would paint an unknown kind as a text bubble,
so the host publishes the legacy status form to any client that does not
advertise agent-session.turn-item.v1, through the same per-client seam
background tasks use. The downgrade is transitional and goes once no
supported release lacks the capability. The shared projection now renders
unknown item kinds as nothing, so later kinds need no gate. One shared reader
handles both forms for old journals and old hosts.

* Preserve observed turn end across settlement retries

* Retain turn attribution for loaded chat history

* Preserve Codex exit receipt across close retries

* Register completed turn duration reliability gate

* Keep earlier turns through a Codex rewind and count a mid-turn attach from the real start

Findings from an independent adversarial review of the typed turn record:

- A Codex rewind adopted the provider's item list as the new epoch, and the
  provider never returns the host's own turn rows, so every duration before
  the rewind point vanished. The host's turn rows are now spliced back beside
  the item each followed, and recovery no longer expects the provider to
  prove rows it never owned.
- The epoch row was stamped with the current schema version, so an older host
  latched read-only at row 1 of every new session, defeating the mixed
  version design. It carries no body and stays at v2; a stored-row test now
  reads SQLite directly, because the reader upcasts every row on read.
- A send Codex folds into a running turn shares the opening prompt's provider
  key, and the alias map credited the duration to the later prompt. The
  earliest submission naming a key now wins.
- The live counter anchored on first sight, so a client attaching mid-turn
  counted from zero. Published frames now carry the host's clock, the reducer
  keeps the last sample with its local receipt time, and both clients anchor
  on how long the host says the turn has run.

* Correct turn duration gate assertion reference

* Respect authoritative unknown native chat duration

* Preserve unverifiable timing across older host upgrade

* Record final completed turn duration reliability evidence

* Fix the CI failures the merge left behind

- A merged import list named the same module twice, which the native code
  quality plugin fails on.
- A running turn is now reported by the host with no duration, so the settled
  map carries an explicit null for it; the hook test still expected the entry
  to be absent.
- main gave the older-page action a cursor with a head-trim guard, so the
  retention test's epoch-only action no longer typechecks; it now passes an
  unbounded sequence, which is what the old shape meant.
- The roster comparator moved into the extracted module, leaving its import
  unused in the reducer.

* Split two files back under the line cap after the merge

Merging main put both one effective line over 300, and the cap forbids a
disable or a shave. The wire module's refusal vocabulary moves to its own file
and is re-exported, so its consumers are untouched; the host's four thin
mutation delegates move next to the functions they call.

* Advertise the turn-item capability on every client transport

Local IPC and mobile advertised it; the remote and web transports did not, so a
desktop paired to a remote host, the CLI, and web silently ran on the legacy
carrier forever and the canonical row was never exercised there. The renderer
that paints it is the same build on every transport.

* Update the web auth-frame expectation for the new capability

Brennan BensonandMerge Sim 5868fdc9e3 feat(native-chat): report Codex background tasks in the chat strip (#19346)
* feat(native-chat): report Codex background tasks in the chat strip

The background-tasks strip works for Claude only; a structured Codex
session shows nothing in it. Feed it from the Codex app-server stream.

The strip stands for work that OUTLIVED a turn, which is what the
monitoring header, Claude's foreground suppression, and the conversation
command gate all already assume. Codex has no `is_backgrounded` flag, so
that fact is derived from the turn boundary: a `subAgentActivity` child or
a primary-thread `commandExecution` becomes visible once the turn it
belongs to completes and it is still unsettled.

`turn/completed` only reveals a task here, never settles one — measured on
`codex app-server` 0.153.4, a spawn_agent child reported `completed` 95.8s
after its parent turn ended. Only a child's own activity kind settles it.

Codex exposes no honest stop: `turn/interrupt` on a child ends its turn
without emitting a terminal activity item and leaves its shell running. So
the state carries a new optional `supportsStopAll: false`, the strip hides
a control that could not act, and the blocked-command message asks the user
to wait rather than to press a button that does not exist.

* refactor(codex): move session teardown out of the structured adapter

Merging main crossed the 300-line cap on
`codex-structured-session-adapter.ts`: the rewind backend (#19235) and this
branch's close-time strip clear both landed in it. The four close paths move
verbatim into `codex-structured-session-teardown.ts`, where they funnel
through one `settled` helper instead of repeating the notification-retry and
background-task cleanup at each call site. No ratchet bump.

Also normalize a background task's description once at receipt rather than on
every projection; the roster is re-projected on each observed frame.

* fix(codex): drop the shell row the journal already settles

A `commandExecution` still `inProgress` when its turn ends was reported as a
`command` task. But `settleCodexJournalTurn` writes exactly those items to the
journal as `state: 'failed'` on `turn/completed` and forgets them, so the strip
row would have claimed a shell was still running at the same instant Orca
recorded that it was not — two surfaces contradicting each other about the same
process.

A subagent is the opposite case and stays: the roster pointedly does not sweep
at a turn boundary, because children measurably outlive it. That leaves the
producer making exactly one claim — these spawn_agent children are still live
after their turn — which the durable roster row corroborates.

* fix(native-chat): track Codex background execution lifetimes

* fix(native-chat): keep running tool groups from claiming completion

* Fix runtime catalog and capability expectation

* fix(codex): keep a child's name on the command row that outlives it

A child agent's commands stay hidden behind its agent row while the child
works. Once the child's turn settles with a command still running, that
command surfaces as its own row labelled from the raw command string, so
'long_probe' became "/bin/zsh -lc 'ping -c 300 127.0.0.1 > /dev/null'"
at the moment that row was the only remaining signal for the work.

Qualify a child's command row with the child's label. Resolved on read,
so a label registered after the command still lands, and bounded by the
existing description cap so admission accounting stays valid. Primary-
thread commands are left unqualified: they have no child to name.
