Widening wrapping from overlay/startup panes to every zsh pane turned three latent wrapper defects into user-visible ones. - The config-dir resolver used `REPLY`, zsh's shared scratch global, as its out-parameter. `typeset -r REPLY` in a user config made the wrapper's first executable assignment fatal, `typeset -i REPLY` silently resolved every path to 0; both left HISTFILE inside Orca's wrapper dir. It now writes an Orca-private `_orca_resolved_config_dir`, declared `typeset -g` so the rename introduces no `warn_create_global` noise. A new rule test fails on any generated wrapper file that writes a global outside Orca's namespace. - The daemon dropped an inherited HISTFILE but never an inherited ORCA_HISTFILE, which now both wraps a pane the client scoped nothing for and re-exports another worktree's history path. The relay had the same gap on its isolation-off and revive paths. Both now mirror the desktop. - A user .zshenv or .zprofile ending in `emulate sh` makes zsh ignore ZDOTDIR, so no later wrapper file is read and the epilogue never runs. Nothing can repair HISTFILE from there, so the wrapper now detects the emulation and hands the pane back unwrapped instead of leaving history somewhere invisible. Also `typeset -g __orca_in_command` so the OSC 133 preexec hook prints no warning under `setopt warn_create_global`.
