* fix(agents): lift the pane retirement fence when a live PTY re-attaches (STA-4114) A detach/reattach cycle retires the pane on both sides — the main hook server's closedAgentStatusPaneKeys and the renderer's recentlyRetiredAgentStatusPaneKeys — and nothing ever cleared either one. The pane then rejected every later working/done event for the rest of its life while Pi kept running normally in the same PTY. Bind the fence to the fact it asserts: retirement claims the pane is gone, and binding a live PTY to that exact pane disproves it. Clear both tombstones at the spawn/attach chokepoint and at the daemon-backed reattach path, so recovery does not depend on the agent starting another turn — a pane re-attached mid-turn only has agent_end left to report, and one re-attached while idle emits nothing at all. Closed-tab tombstones are a separate, stronger claim and are deliberately left standing. * test(agent-hooks): re-arm the idle re-attach test against a turn-boundary fix The idle re-attach assertion posted only before_agent_start, which #14626 turns into a fence-lifting turn boundary. Under that change the test passes whether or not restorePaneAuthority runs, so it stops pinning this PR's mechanism. Assert first on agent_end — a non-turn event — so the test proves the fence was already down when the hook arrived. Verified: with restorePaneAuthority neutered AND before_agent_start added to the restart predicate, the old assertion passes and the new one fails. * fix(agents): lift a retired pane's whole fence, aliases included (STA-4114) Retirement fences the pane, its resolved owner, and every alias of it, then deletes those aliases. Restoring only the key handed to us left the rest standing — and a detached pane's process keeps posting the key it launched under (server.ts:1614), so the canonical re-attach case stayed suppressed with the fence apparently lifted. Verified against the real omp binary: the row came back under the stale launch pane instead of the detached owner. Record what each retirement fenced and replay it as a unit, rebuilding the aliases it deleted. Keys and aliases belonging to a closed tab are skipped, so the stronger claim survives and a live process is never routed back into a closed tab. The record is indexed by every fenced key and bounded at 1024 like the maps it mirrors; an evicted record degrades to the old behaviour. Also records why the renderer's restore IPC is deliberately unguarded: that map is not a mirror of main's (retirePtyAgentLaunchAuthority fences main directly on command-finished and PTY exit, and nothing pushes it back), and it is per-window and non-persisted, so gating the send on a local tombstone reintroduces this bug for exactly those panes.
