- Passed USER_INTERRUPT_LABEL through abort paths in collab, ACP, RPC, runtime, and SDK flows.

- Cleared suppression on user prompts and reclaimed parked advisor cards on abort settle.
The session-observer overlay is gone. The Agent Hub (ctrl+s, alt+a, or double-tap left arrow on an empty editor) presents one overlay with two views: a live registry table (status, unread irc count, current task, last activity; j/k to navigate, r to revive, x to abort/release) and per-agent chat (transcript + input line) — submitting revives a parked agent and steers it via the normal prompt path. Main is the ambient chat and stays out of the table.\n\nrenderInitialMessages no longer takes a prebuilt context: every redraw now reaches for AgentSession.buildTranscriptSessionContext() (full-history transcript with each compaction emitted inline at the point it fired, snapcompact frames re-attached on rebuild). UiHelpers drops the deferred-compaction render and the IRC autoreply branch that the new mailbox bus deprecated. CompactionSummaryMessage renders as a slim divider (── 📷 compacted · ctrl+o ──), expanding to the summary + snapcompact frame count. session-manager.buildSessionContext gains a { transcript: true } mode; an exported buildSessionContextFromFile() reads a session file without taking the writer lock so the hub chat view can tail any agent (parked or live). Theme picks up icon.camera + tool.irc symbol entries.
- Serialized hook selector, input, and editor dialogs to prevent overlapping surfaces.
- Queued dialog requests FIFO and skipped requests aborted before they could be shown.
- Added a shared #presentDialog path for modal focus and hide lifecycle.
- Removed the built-in `background` (`bg`) slash command and its `handleBackgroundCommand` path from the interactive flow.
- Deleted background event subscription and shutdown handling by removing `handleBackgroundEvent` from the event, input, and interactive controllers.
- Simplified `InteractiveModeContext` by dropping background-only fields and helpers such as `isBackgrounded`, background UI context creation, and background event callbacks.
- Added ChatBlock and ChatBlockHost with mount, finish, and dispose lifecycle callbacks.
- Added InteractiveModeContext.present and resetTranscript APIs and used them to mount/repaint blocks.
- Reworked controller rendering paths to emit command, event, extension, and selector outputs via ctx.present.
- Implemented component and container dispose hooks in tui so loaders and child blocks cleanup timers/effects.
- Added `selectionMarker`, `checkedIndices`, and `markableCount` options to render radio/checkbox glyphs per row.
- Moved checkbox rendering from inline label prefixes into the selector component.
- Kept trailing control rows like "Other"/"Done" on the plain cursor.
- Added role-model cycle data structures and helper methods to resolve and persist selected model states.
- Added a plan-review model-tier slider from role model cycles, with arrow navigation and slider help text.
- Applied selected role model and explicit thinking level before plan approval, carrying over to fresh and compacted sessions.
- Added hook-selector slider rendering and movement handling with index clamping, plus tests and changelog coverage.
- Removed deprecated MCP-specific type aliases and functions from tool-discovery module, consolidating to unified generic tool discovery API.
- Migrated session and SDK code to use generic filterBySource() and collectDiscoverableTools() instead of MCP-specific variants.
- Removed deprecated interface members including hasQueuedMessages(), FocusPane, AcpBuiltinCommandRuntime, and legacy settings methods.
- Updated test suites to use renamed generic discovery methods and removed back-compat test coverage for legacy MCP shapes.
Add an explicit clear-scrollback render option for intentional transcript replacement and use it when switching, branching, reloading, or creating sessions. Regular active redraws continue to preserve terminal scrollback.
Fixes#1295
- Added a shared session command helper that aggregates extension, prompt, and skill slash commands.
- Updated ACP, extension UI, runtime-init, and task executor extension contexts to return session command data instead of empty arrays.
The extension shutdown context action installed by
ExtensionUiController.initializeHookRunner was an empty stub, so
ctx.shutdown() in interactive mode silently did nothing while extensions
fell back to process.exit(0), bypassing session flush and terminal
restore. Flip InteractiveModeContext.shutdownRequested so the main
loop's existing checkShutdownRequested() drives the graceful path.
Fixes#1020.
