A relay answer of sourceRecovery.status === 'restoreRequired' is a SUCCESSFUL RPC that proves the PTY is alive - only its output delivery was retired. The spawn reattach path raised SSH_SESSION_EXPIRED for it, which is the one token that authorises replacing the pane's PTY: both spawn-execute sites then call markSshRemotePtyLease(..., 'expired') and deletePtyOwnership(), and the renderer cold-starts a fresh agent over the same worktree. A live remote agent was orphaned by a request that had just observed it running. Split the vocabulary so the two verdicts cannot be confused (docs/reference/ssh-execution-boundary.md), retry the attach first since a retired delivery is repairable, and give the token its own user-facing copy so it never inherits the "open a new terminal" advice. Second root cause, same symptom: the relay's delivery record was keyed on client id alone, so a re-bound primary channel matched a delivery bound to the dead sink and got 'existing' back - the pane repaints and never receives frames. Key it on the transport generation too, as the dispatcher's own publication ledger already does, and scope every release/retire path in activate() to a record the caller still owns.
