Jinwoo-H d4cfac98b4 refactor(mobile): checked reply readers for the tasks domain's board, runtime, search and create
Forty-three unchecked reply readers across five files become checked zod readers,
so a malformed host reply surfaces as one readable error naming the method
instead of a downstream TypeError, a rendered `undefined`, or a screen left ready
over garbage. Deliberately a behaviour change on malformed replies only.

Five schema modules, each recording the consumer line behind every requirement
and the host handler it was checked against:

- `task-project-board-reply-schema.ts` — the sixteen `github.project.*`
  envelopes. Where a consumer reads a member off BOTH arms unguarded the schema
  is a union on `ok`; where it guards everything (`result.error?.message ?? '…'`,
  `result.labels ?? []`) it is a flat passthrough and requires only the
  container, because a requirement on a member the consumer already defaults
  would refuse a reply main rendered.
- `task-runtime-reply-schema.ts` — the hydration reads. The three preference
  writes read `z.unknown()`: no call site interprets their body.
- `task-source-search-reply-schema.ts` — the provider searches and the pasted
  single-item lookups. The Linear union replaces the hand reader in
  linear-mobile-issue-read.ts, whose own copy reached the screen unattributed.
- `workspace-source-reply-schema.ts` — SSH state, agent detection, orca.yaml
  hooks, sparse presets and base-ref search.
- `workspace-create-reply-schema.ts` — the create receipt, the launch receipt and
  the hosted-base union.

Requirements are exactly the members a consumer reads unguarded AND a recorded
golden shows the host sending. That second half is load-bearing: the recorded
GitHub search row is `{ number, title }`, the recorded Linear issue is `{ id }`,
the recorded project is missing `id`/`url`/`source` and the recorded sparse
preset is missing `repoId`/`createdAt`/`updatedAt` — requiring what the shared
types declare would have dropped rows main renders. Where the value therefore
stays looser than the screen's own state type, the call site keeps one narrowing
cast with that reason on it rather than a default that would fabricate state.

Two enum decisions, both pinned:

- `ownerType` is CLOSED with no fallback. It is echoed into the next
  `github.project.listViews` params, and remote-wire-compatibility.md rule 4
  forbids a reply-schema fallback from shaping a param; the host's own listing
  handler answers `validation_error` for any other value.
- `ssh` `status` is OPEN and degrades to `disconnected`, main's own answer for a
  state it did not receive. The readiness gate is an equality test against
  `connected`, so an arm this build has not heard of can never grant a create,
  and the record survives with its Connect affordance.
- Every other host vocabulary a consumer equality-tests — the project view
  `layout`, the `setupRunPolicy` — stays `z.string()` for the same rule.

Tri-states are preserved, not collapsed: the row detail's `reviewDecision`, a
work item's `author` and the SSH record's `error` each keep explicit `null`
distinct from absent, with a unit pin on each.

`blank-workspace-create.test.ts` splits one `it.each` in two. The two create
routes now answer a workspace-less reply differently: `agent.launch` still
reports "Failed to create workspace", because its reader guards `worktreeId`
itself, while `worktree.create` is named as unreadable, because the create screen
reads `result.worktree.id` unguarded into the session route. Both reach the same
catch; only the sentence changes.

`mobile-tasks-refactor-parity.test.ts` moves four hashes and no count. Hooks hold
at 350 with 28 bodies edited and no dependency array moved; statements hold at
417 and declarations at 194; `semantics` loses exactly four lines, all four
string literals that lived inside the one deleted inline cast type. No method
literal and no `rpc:` call signature moves.

The inventory loses its five tasks lines; the boundary test stays green.

Goldens are refreshed in the next commit, which is where the disclosed behaviour
change is proved.
