• 🟡 (08:56) Background task ses_f51808c1affeB5LJt71L2pUREb (“Review v20 security”) completed with empty output after Lore recall failed; assistant disqualified the reviewer, noting the source had changed.
• 🟡 (08:56) Complete-suite investigation initially attributed the failure to test-state contamination: the settled-tool test saw a prior test’s "Echo this" request, and its failed assertion prevented scoped cleanup, producing a timeout and unhandled error.
• 🟡 (08:56) Further investigation found a real recovery-branch condition: a completed Step.Ended whose claim has phase: "continue" is intentionally recoverable and must enqueue its continuation. Terminal reconciliation must apply only when the claim phase is not "continue".
• 🟡 (08:56) packages/core/src/session/recovery.ts was updated to restrict terminal reconciliation to claims whose phase is not "continue", preserving recovery of completed continuation turns while preventing completed failed Steps from starting another model call.
• 🟡 (08:57) tsgo --noEmit completed successfully, followed by two focused passing gates: settled continuation had 1 pass, 57 filtered out, 0 failures, and 5 expect() calls across 1 file in 1220.00ms; failed-Step reconciliation had 1 pass, 109 filtered out, 0 failures, and 6 expect() calls across 1 file in 1397.00ms.
• 🟡 (08:57) Assistant confirmed both terminal behaviors: completed "continue" claims resume exactly once; completed failed Steps reconcile only unresolved tools and never enqueue a model call.
• 🟡 (08:57) Assistant began rerunning the complete set of 254 recovery tests.
