* fix(native-chat): keep one live tool-run header from a call's start to the turn's end
The collapsed tool run's header was two elements, one for "a call is running"
and one for "nothing is", chosen call by call. Every call start and end
remounted it, the count disappeared while a call ran and came back one
higher, and a call that finished inside a frame still bought the whole swap.
That is the 42→43 flicker in the report.
The header is now one element whose live state belongs to the turn, not to
any call: it stays live from the run's first call until the agent moves past
it (prose, a further run, or the turn's end), and settles in place. While
live the sentence speaks in the present tense and counts the call in flight
("Running 3 commands"), with the latest call's command beside it as a muted
preview; once settled it reads as before ("Ran 3 commands ✓"). The category
glyph is the run's in both states, and the completion mark only appears once
settled, so nothing pops between calls.
Which run is live is derived where the transcript is sliced into rows: the
last row that speaks or acts is the trailing one. A reasoning aside after it
leaves it live; an answer or a further run settles it.
Present-tense forms for the ten sentence categories are added to the shared
copy and the English catalog. The transcript-file lane, which renders with
the structured activity UI off, is unchanged.
* fix(native-chat): settle a run blocked on the reader, keep it live past an approval
- A run whose question is awaiting the reader's answer no longer pulses
"Reading 1 file" while the agent is blocked; it falls back to its calls.
- An approval's receipt no longer moves past the run above it, so the call
it just approved reads as running while it runs.
- The header button is the live region, so the count is announced too.
- Drop the unused live option and record from the shared English sentence;
nothing renders it yet.
* fix(native-chat): stop the settled run's check from fading in on every mount
Windowing remounts settled rows as the reader scrolls, and a restored transcript
mounts them all at once, so the fade replayed where nothing had changed. Also
pin that the live header counts the next call on the same element.
