A continuable child that stopped without reporting — an error, a token
ceiling, cancellation, teardown — left its parent nothing to act on.
The continuation manager now delivers an unconditional settlement
notice to the durable direct parent before releasing ownership, folding
consumed work (foldConsumedWork supersedes findLastMessageTurnEnd) so a
claimed-but-unrun prompt reads as aborted rather than completed, waking
an idle parent, steering a busy one, and never waking a closing tree.
A delegated in-process child now acts only within the sandbox scope fixed
at delegation: captureDelegatedPolicyOverrides still snapshots the parent's
explicit sandbox override but pins the child approval policy to 'never'
(instead of inheriting the parent's), so every child ask — sandbox_permissions
escalations included — is rejected deterministically by ApprovalService
before any answerer, with the audit pair still logged. Every in-process
child additionally receives the scoped subagent:delegation runtime-context
statement telling it to report a scope limitation instead of retrying.
Supersedes the approval half of the policy-inheritance decision (new Agent
Note cross-linked from both prior notes and the approval-seam Q&A); refreshed
child snapshot fixtures carry the pinned event, and
subagent-published-run-failure now persists a one-event child log.
A continuable background child (the default backgroundMode for both
delegation tools) never received the parent session's explicit
sandbox/approval overrides: materialization applied only child
composition, so a danger-full-access parent produced workspace-write
children whose every out-of-workspace operation raised an approval
prompt.
Move the one-shot driver's capture/append pair into the shared
child-agent module (captureDelegatedPolicyOverrides /
appendDelegatedPolicyOverrides) and call it from both paths:
startContinuable captures before its first await, only fresh
materialization appends the source-tagged events (after any fork seed),
and a cold resume replays the persisted delegation events instead of
re-capturing the parent.
Adds the continuable inheritance unit suite, the ACP snapshot scenario
subagent-continuable-inheritance (fails without the fix), the
continuable policy-inheritance Agent Note, and the seam-level README
contract, with bilingual counterparts.
