The fork feature was inert. `completedTurnEnd` required a journal row whose `turnLifecycle.state` is `completed`, and nothing writes one: settlement TOMBSTONES the running row instead. Every turn therefore looked live and every fork refused `busy`. Completion is now read as "not the active turn", off the same projection the chat view reads, and the fixtures that hand-built the impossible row are replaced with journals the real producers emit. - Read completion as the absence of a running lifecycle row, via `activeStructuredAgentSessionTurnId`; Codex matches by turn id, Claude by the turn being the newest one. - Carry `legacy:` rows into the child instead of throwing. Adoption imports the whole prior transcript under that namespace, so forking any turn taken after adopting a conversation refused `unsupported`. Parent turn-lifecycle rows are dropped with the other host operation-lifecycle rows. - Give fork a refusal terminal. A failure that provably preceded any provider session now settles to `refused` and clears `retained`, instead of stranding the record at `attempted` where every later attach threw `agent_session_operation_unknown` and the dead prefix was rewritten on every lease renewal. An ambiguous outcome still keeps the guard and never makes a second provider session. - Settle an existing epoch rather than replacing the child journal twice when a crash lands between the journal transaction and the completion transition. - Evict the oldest idle client attempt at the cap instead of rejecting, which wedged forking for every session, tab and worktree until a restart, and report each typed refusal in its own words instead of collapsing them into "wait for the conversation to finish". The pre-request capability error now surfaces as itself rather than as an unconfirmed outcome. - Stop a failed fork-support probe from blanking the slash-command menu and the per-turn option refresh on a remote target. - Scan eligibility in one linear pass and skip it entirely while the action is unavailable: 2000 items went from 1.43ms to 0.05ms, and a single long turn from 16.2ms to 0.09ms. - Drop six orphan i18n keys a mis-resolved merge resurrected, which failed `verify:localization-runtime-catalog`.
