* fix(agent-status): reap finished Claude named agents/teammates from the sidebar roster #8522 stopped one-shot subagents from squatting as idle rows, but named background agents (Workflow/orchestration/ultracode lanes and agent-teams teammates) still piled up permanent "Idle - <type>" child rows for the rest of the session — the reported regression (11 idle rows under an "Orchestration Messages" pane, all idle 3-6h after finishing). Root cause, confirmed against live hook captures (claude 2.1.210): named agents get teammate-shaped ids (a<name>-<hex>) AND now appear in Stop's `background_tasks` as `type: "teammate"` entries whose status stays "running" forever — even after the agent finished. The old code read that shape as a "resumable teammate", so SubagentStop only marked it idle and the fold never reaped it (a present teammate task kept hasTeammateTypedTask true). The rows never left. Fix: the roster now tracks only WORKING children. - SubagentStop removes the child outright (teammate-shaped or not) — it is the reliable finish signal; the teammate task's "running" status is not. - TeammateIdle removes by name as the fallback when a SubagentStop is lost. - A lead Stop's background_tasks still reaps unlisted children: hyphen-free one-shots always, and teammate-shaped rows once a complete inventory shows no teammate-typed task at all. A live named agent whose id never appears is kept only while a teammate-typed task is still present (the done-gate). - Hydration drops persisted idle snapshots so a restart can't re-pile them. Verified live in a dev Electron instance driving a real Claude TUI that spawns four named background agents: pre-fix the pane resolves to done with four persistent "Idle - <probe>" rows; post-fix each row disappears the instant its agent finishes and the roster drains to empty (done, zero child rows). Tests: roster + row-lifecycle + hook-listener suites rewritten to the working-only semantics, grounded in the captured 2.1.210 hook stream (126 passing). Typecheck + oxlint clean. * fix(agent-status): prune persisted idle Claude children * fix(agent-status): persist Claude idle-row hydration cleanup * fix(agent-status): avoid ambiguous teammate idle cleanup * fix(agent-status): reconcile replacement children at roster cap
