Hypothesis

• Potential stale stream-state reconciliation path after orphaned run IDs or lost completion events.
• App UI likely depends on stream flag from resume + turn completion to stop spinner loop.

Ask

• Please investigate stream-state lifecycle for thread-stream-state-changed, maybe_resume_success, and Turn not found for event reconciliation.
