* fix(orchestration): worker-start settles readiness on observed turn start, not write acceptance A dispatched PTY worker whose agent wedged at startup (six codex workers on 2026-09-07) was reported 'ok: true, state: ready, stage: input_accepted': the preamble write was acknowledged with observationTimeoutMs: 0 and nothing ever verified a turn began. The corpse and the healthy worker produced identical receipts. worker-start now runs the existing second-stage prompt observer (observeTerminalAgentPrompt) after acceptance, inside the 30s window the client RPC grace already budgets for (orchestration-worker-start-prompt-budget): - turn observed (or provider ack for structured sessions) -> ready - permission prompt -> ready; positive liveness, surfaced in the receipt - provider without a turn-start signal -> ready; observation: unsupported - observation supported and nothing started -> worker state start_unknown, response state outcome_unknown with nextCommands. Honest 'unverifiable', never a death claim: the capability and terminal are kept, and worker-report settlement already reconnects a start_unknown worker that recovers and reports. Also fixes the effect-verb lie that misdirected the first diagnosis of this incident: agent-first worktree creation labeled its own brand-new agent terminal 'reused_agent_terminal' (a role test picking a lifecycle verb) on both the local and federation paths. It now says 'created'; readers keep accepting the retired verb for rows persisted before the rename. * fix: preserve worker authority through start observation --------- Co-authored-by: Merge Sim <sim@local>
