* fix(native-chat): start a Codex chat without waiting on the background model probe Opening a Codex chat kicks a session-less model-catalog probe (a throwaway read-only `codex app-server`) for the account, and the new chat's own options read then joined that probe's in-flight refresh through the catalog store's single-flight. When the probe's Codex hung, chat start waited out the probe's 15s deadline and failed with "codex app-server session exceeded 15000ms", even though the chat's own app-server was up. Single-flight now joins only a refresh by the same kind of lister. A live session lists over the connection it already holds; the probe still records its own failure in the store, and the picker keeps serving whichever listing succeeded. * fix(native-chat): never let a chat's model listing join another chat's listing Single-flight in the model catalog store was split by lister kind, so a new chat's acquire-time options read no longer joined the session-less probe, but it still joined any other live chat's in-flight listing for the same account. When that other chat's Codex was wedged or closing, the new chat waited out that chat's request timeout and failed to start with its error. Key in-flight listings by the lister's identity instead: a live session by its own connection, the probe by the probe itself. A lister still joins its own in-flight listing, and shouldRefresh still holds back a probe while any listing for the account is in flight. * test(native-chat): pin that the catalog store releases an account once every listing settles shouldRefresh reads 'any listing in flight for this account' from whether the per-account in-flight map exists, so that map must be dropped exactly when its last listing settles. Nothing covered this: removing the cleanup, or dropping the map on the first settle, passed every catalog test. A leftover map would stop every later background refresh and probe for the account. * fix(native-chat): name the catalog lister type instead of a bare object A live session is keyed by its per-spawn catalog handle (minted in the same acquire as its connection), the probe by itself. * test(codex): pin that a chat's own concurrent option reads share one listing * fix(native-chat): keep model picker current across parallel listings
