* Let a Codex chat stop a sub-agent from the background-tasks strip A Codex sub-agent showed in the background-tasks strip with no Stop, and the chat's own Stop interrupts only the main turn, so a helper ran on until it finished. Codex's app-server takes `turn/interrupt` for any loaded thread, sub-agent threads included, so a sub-agent row's Stop now interrupts the turn Orca saw that sub-agent run, through the same background Stop route Codex commands use. Codex's -32600 refusal (no active turn, another turn, thread not found) means the run the row showed is over, so the Stop is quiet; any other refusal says the task wasn't stopped; a timeout or lost contact is unconfirmed. A live run showed Codex holds an interrupt that lands as the turn ends until the sub-agent's next turn ends, so a timeout on a run the session has since seen end is quiet too. Older clients' `codex-agent:` rows name no host record and stay unstoppable. * Stop a Codex sub-agent's own sub-agents and commands with it, and hold Stopping per run A sub-agent Stop interrupted only that helper's turn, so the commands it was running (Codex keeps a turn's processes when the turn is interrupted) and the helpers it had spawned kept going, and its row stayed in the strip. The Stop now interrupts the helper's run and every descendant's run, then terminates the processes those threads hold where the app-server has background terminals. The interrupt goes through interruptCodexTurn, and a small codex-background-task-stops module composes the sub-agent and terminal stops, so the terminals module is terminals only again. A Codex helper keeps one row id (its thread id) across runs, so a confirmed Stop's held button carried over to the helper's next run. Both clients now hold it for the run it was pressed on, read from the row's invocation. * Test that a sub-agent Stop leaves siblings alone and skips terminates after a timeout Adds direct tests of the per-run Stop hold (including an older host's roster), matches the desktop hold comment to mobile's, and reuses the one 10 s bound.
