- Shared immutable model registries and auth storage via beforeAll/afterAll.
- Swapped fixed-delay settle sleeps for predicate polling and signals.
- Stubbed network/timers to drop wall-clock waits in registry and history tests.
- Added resetDisplay invalidation tests and startup-timing breakdown lines.
- Registered and triggered a session-switch reconciler during init and after switch.
- Rebuilt resume flow to restore plan/goal mode state and clear stale mode flags.
- Marked fallback and context-promotion model switches ephemeral and skipped them on restore.
- Added regression tests for temporary model ordering, fallback precedence, and mode cleanup.
Treat temporary model_change roles as non-restorable when resuming sessions so context-promotion and retry-fallback models do not override the saved default.\n\nFixes #1649
Try the last active role model first, then the saved default model when the role model cannot be restored during session switching or startup resume.\n\nFixes #1649
Use the last model_change role when resuming an existing session instead of always restoring models.default. Covered both /resume switchSession and startup continue paths.\n\nFixes #1649
- Restricted `setModel` to persist settings only when `persist: true` is passed; all runtime switches (Ctrl+P, `--model`, `/model`, model picker temp selections) no longer overwrite `modelRoles.default`.
- Changed `cycleRoleModels` to accept a direction ("forward"/"backward") instead of a `temporary` flag; both directions now use `applyRoleModel` without persisting.
- Added `persist: true` exclusively to the model picker's "Set as default" action in `SelectorController`.
- Added test suite covering persistence behavior for `setModel`, `cycleRoleModels`, and `cycleModel`.
