* fix(native-chat): a Stop binds only the turn it actually stopped A Stop pressed before any turn showed used to claim, at end-write time, whatever turn the stopped send later opened, even when the Stop stopped nothing. A turn that then died on its own read as "Interrupted" (your cancellation) instead of "Failed". Now a person's Stop that named no turn binds, in memory only, every turn that ends while the Stop settles, and afterwards only the turn its interrupt took. The settle ends a still-running stopped turn once. A relaunch finds nothing in memory, so an unsettled turnless Stop binds no turn. A Codex Stop whose answered turn does not open within its wait, or whose send's answer was lost, now answers refused, so the host ends the child and the turn can never run. * fix(native-chat): keep the person's queue pause and close binding after a Stop settles A host stop or eviction with no turn running now defers to a person's Stop while its queue pause still holds with nothing sent since, read from rows, so a held card is not handed off on reopen after a Stop that did nothing or whose kill failed. A person's close that named no turn opens a settle around its child's end, so a turn that end cuts reads as theirs. A press opens its settle only when the latest Stop event is its own or the one in force it repeats: a late Stop, a card's interrupt or a lost event row reopens no earlier Stop. A Codex Stop that cannot reach a turn still able to open says the Stop is unconfirmed rather than that no turn ran, and a second Stop still reaches a turn an earlier wait left unopened. Also drops the unused openedBy plumbing and the unreachable "a written cancellation stays one" rule, and pins a relaunch after a named Stop. * fix(native-chat): a Codex Stop agrees on both presses when a turn is still owed, and pin the close's settle A Codex Stop that waited for a turn Codex answered a send into now answers "may still open" whenever that turn neither opened nor ended and its send is still owed, however the wait ended (it ran out, or the thread went idle). Before, a first press after an idle thread said no turn was running and kept Codex, while an identical second press ended it. Adds a test that a person's close the conversation outlives (as /clear does) closes its settle, so a later turn that ends on its own reads as a failure. * test(native-chat): a Stop whose event row failed binds no turn to an earlier Stop With one ordered journal writer the Stop's event is in the fold when its write returns, so the press reads whether it owns the latest Stop from the fold instead of awaiting the write. Pins the case the read must refuse. * test(native-chat): name the settle, not a stream drain, in the Stop's own-end test * test(native-chat): a Codex Stop answered before Codex ends the turn reads interrupted throughout Codex answers an interrupt it took before it sends turn/completed (interrupted): on TurnAborted the app-server answers pending interrupts, then ends the turn, on one channel. The test fake did the reverse. It now answers first and ends the turn on a later read, and the tests that read the turn's end right after a Stop wait for it. New end-to-end test through the shipped host, journal and Codex adapter: with the real order, every end row of the stopped turn reads interrupted by the Stop (named, unnamed, and a Stop pressed while turn/start was in flight). Breaking the settle window turns the in-flight case red: the Stop's own end row then has no verdict, which reads as failed until Codex's end lands. * fix(native-chat): a Codex Stop interrupts a turn Codex answered but has not opened at once A Stop that named no turn, made after Codex answered a send but before the turn opened, used to wait up to 5 s for the turn to open before interrupting, and ended the Codex process when it didn't. The stated reason, that Codex refuses an interrupt until it opens the turn, holds only part of the time: with no turn active, Codex takes an interrupt once its thread runs (turn_interrupt_inner), and refuses it with -32600 "no active turn to interrupt" before that or once the turn has ended. The Stop now sends the interrupt at once. Only on that refusal, while the turn has neither opened nor ended, does it wait for the turn to open (bounded at 5 s) and send it once more. A turn that ended meanwhile was nothing to stop. One that never opens, or that an earlier wait already gave up on, fails the Stop, and the host ends the child as before. Sends still wait for the turn to open before steering into it. The test fake models Codex taking an interrupt once the thread runs (run()). * fix(native-chat): every Codex Stop waits for an answered turn to start, as the first did A Stop whose interrupt Codex refused as finding no active turn skipped the wait when an earlier wait, a Stop's or a send's, had already given up on that turn. Every press now waits its own bound and retries once if the turn starts, so a turn that opens during a later press is still stopped. Both presses still reach the same verdict when it never starts. * fix(native-chat): a Codex Stop that ends the child before any turn opened withdraws its send A Stop on a Codex turn that was answered but never opened ends the Codex process. That end settled the send as in doubt (unknown, recovered), and the client's outbox holds every later send behind a send in doubt until the person presses Retry, which re-sends the very message they stopped. The chat looked stuck. Codex records a prompt only once its turn has started, so a send whose turn never opened never ran. When the Stop's refusal says so (turnMayOpen), the child end now settles the unanswered sends as withdrawn, the verdict Codex's own interrupted-turn end already gives an unechoed send. The flag rides on the owed wind-down, so a retry after a failed child end withdraws them too. Claude's child end still leaves its unanswered send in doubt. * fix(native-chat): derive the withdrawal of a Codex send whose turn never opened Replaces the flag the Stop carried to the child's end, and its copy on the owed wind-down, with a reading of the journal at the settlement that lands. A Codex child's unanswered send is withdrawn when a person's Stop is in force since it was sent and no turn row ran, or was written, after it; any other end (a turn that opened, a host's close, a crash, Claude) still leaves it in doubt. A retried wind-down reads the same rows, so it withdraws the same sends. * fix(native-chat): keep a send in doubt when a turn was open for it The derived withdrawal read a turn as open for a send only if it still ran or was written after the send. A send steered into a running Codex turn whose interrupt failed met neither once the adapter's end settled that turn ahead of the host's settle, so it read withdrawn, though Codex drains a steer into the running turn and may hold it. A turn that ended after the send was handed over was open for it too: such a send stays in doubt, as before. Pins that case, and that a send made after the Stop, to a child that then dies before its turn opens, stays in doubt. * fix(native-chat): withdraw a Codex send by whether it started its own turn, not by timing Whether a turn was open for a send was read from end times: a turn that ended after the send's handover counted. A send made while a Stop ended the turn is handed over once that turn reads ended, yet Codex's own end for it can arrive later, so such a send whose own turn never opened read in doubt again, and the chat's queue held behind it. The handover already records where the send went: its message joins the turn running then (a steer) or belongs to no turn (it starts its own). Only a send that started its own turn, with none opened since, is withdrawn; one that joined a running turn, or has no recorded place, stays in doubt. The Codex test fake takes an answered interrupt as Codex does, dropping the turn before its end arrives. * fix(native-chat): leave no Stop row when the Stop took back a send that never ran A Stop on a Codex send whose turn never opened ends the child, and the child's end takes the send back into the composer. The Stop still wrote "Cancellation requested." at the conversation level, so with the send gone it sat under the previous finished turn and read as if that turn had been stopped. A Stop that found no turn running and whose child end took back every send it found now writes no row; a Stop of a running turn, or one that leaves a send in doubt, still does. * fix(native-chat): keep a Stop's note with the turn it waited for and stopped A Stop pressed while Codex was still opening the turn read the note's place before it waited: no turn was running yet, so "Cancellation requested." became a loose conversation row, never folded with the turn, drawn below whatever came next. Once the interrupt takes a turn that opened during that wait, the note is now scoped and keyed to that turn, as a normal Stop's is. A refused or unconfirmed Stop, and one that writes no row, are unchanged. * fix(native-chat): key the Stop's note by the turn the interrupt took * fix(native-chat): count a send whose answer was lost when a Stop takes it back The no-row rule counted only pending sends, but the child's end also takes back a send this process left in doubt when Codex's turn/start answer was lost. That case still wrote "Cancellation requested." under the previous turn. Both now read one predicate, so they cannot drift apart. * test(native-chat): pin which sends a Stop's child end can take back A send an earlier process left in doubt is never withdrawn and never holds the row back, and a queued card's send is never counted. * test(native-chat): read the outbox reconcile from where main moved it
