+ * The subset of that vocabulary replayed history must never be able to

+ *
+ * Reachable by construction, not in theory. A replayed turn always carries its
+ * `User: ` / `Assistant: ` label, so it cannot open a line — and after the
+ * container restructure exactly two untrusted values still reach column 0
+ * UNLABELLED, one escaped line each: the summary, inside `<session_context>`,
+ * and the pinned last user message, inside its own container. Every other
+ * untrusted value renders behind a `- ` bullet or a role label. The summary is the sharper of the two: it is written by a
+ * model from everything the source Agent ingested — tool results, fetched pages,
+ * file contents — so a forgery needs no hostile user turn, only text that
+ * reached a synopsis.
+ *
+ * What earns a reservation is the power to make the target ACT, so this is every
+ * framer line that names a resource:
+ *
+ * - the native session-log sentence, which renders a bare filesystem path in the
+ *   framer's voice and tells the target to read it. Forging it escalates
+ *   nothing — the target already holds the user's filesystem authority and
+ *   already reads this replayed content, so no boundary is crossed. It is
+ *   reserved for attribution: only a path the HOST supplied may arrive
+ *   introduced by the framer, because a forged one spends the target's turn on
+ *   a file nobody chose;
+ * - the Session-naming lines, the pointer's own and the header's predecessor
+ *   session id, which say WHICH conversation the target should page. The
+ *   same-Session id now rides the `<session_context>` attribute, which no
+ *   untrusted value is ever given;
+ * - the two native-return boundary lines, which say which rows the target's OWN
+ *   conversation already covers. Forging either is the same permanent skip: the
+ *   target is told it holds rows it does not, so it never asks for them;
+ * - the range-bearing openings, which say which rows it already holds, which
+ *   rows fall in the gap, and where the cursor starts. They carry one statement
+ *   in four grammars — the claim names the span, the gap names its complement,
+ *   the cursor line anchors the walk, the re-request note says the span is
+ *   already inlined — so reserving one and not the others leaves the rest
+ *   saying it. Their forgery makes the target skip rows forever.
+ *
+ * The no-range wording is reserved as well, and it was NOT the risk: it states
+ * that no span was settled, so forging it can only buy the target a re-read,
+ * never a skip. It is here so the pointer's column-0 vocabulary has no
+ * exception to remember.
+ *
+ * Each entry is the line's OPENING wherever the line has one, not its whole
+ * sentence, because the defang below replaces the reserved string's LAST
+ * character. Reserving the opening puts the escape at the front of a forgery —
+ * where the `startsWith` checks that read these lines back, and the reader's
+ * eye, both meet it — instead of on a final full stop a hundred characters
+ * later.
+ *
+ * Deliberately NOT reserved: the framer's descriptive framing — the recording
+ * disclaimer, the `- Handoff:` line, `- Original agent:`, `- Predecessor
+ * state:`, the reach and completeness notices, the two summary notes, the two
+ * paging-semantics sentences, and the footer's `Continue from here.`. A forged copy of one of those points the target at
+ * nothing, and they are ordinary enough English that reserving them would defang
+ * legitimate summaries. Mangling real context to prevent nothing is the reverse
+ * failure, and it costs as much as the forward one.
+ *
+ * Two more openings need no reservation because untrusted text cannot reach
+ * them: the invocation line is indented, and every escaped channel is trimmed
+ * before it is rendered, so no forgery can start with whitespace; and the
+ * omission notices live in the transcript region, which no untrusted channel
+ * writes a line of its own into.
+ *
+ * ACCEPTED BOUND: the defang matches these literals byte for byte, so one
+ * homoglyph or zero-width character inside a forgery of any of them
+ * leaves it whole. Recorded rather than closed, because closing it means a
+ * Unicode normalisation pass over every untrusted value, and this list is an
+ * attribution rule — the target already holds the authority a forgery would
+ * ask it to use — not a containment boundary.

+ * The claim's post-condition, checked against the lines that will actually ship

+ *
+ * Four repairs have each closed one way for the claim to outlive its rows — the
+ * dispatch-time fit deleting them, a fork chain's non-ascending seqs, a claim
+ * sealed into a frame the fit could not reach, a span drawn across two Sessions'
+ * seq spaces — and each one left another open.
+ * This closes the class rather than a fourth instance: whichever step clipped,
+ * dropped or reordered a row, and whether or not that step exists yet, the claim
+ * is emitted only when every row it names is present BELOW it, whole, and in
+ * order. Being indifferent to WHO clipped is the whole point; a check that knew
+ * would have to be taught each new clipper.
+ *
+ * Whole matters as much as present. The builder keeps a clipped fragment of the
+ * newest turn's text when that turn alone overflows the region, and a fragment
+ * read as the complete message is the same permanent skip as an absent one: the
+ * target is told it holds text it does not have, so it never asks for it. Each
+ * named row is therefore matched by its ENTIRE rendered line, not by its
+ * opening.
+ *
+ * In order, and each line consumed once, so two turns that render identically
+ * cannot stand in for one another when only one of them survived.
+ *
+ * Every row the claim STRANDS, not only the rows it names. The span is one run
+ * in one space and the run ends at a declared foreign row, so a row of the
+ * claim's own Session lying above that break is named by nothing — while the
+ * cursor the claim hands the target sits BELOW it, and paging backwards never
+ * climbs. An absent row above the span is therefore the same permanent skip as
+ * an absent row inside it, which is why the admission rule is the REACHABLE one:
+ * a row of the claim's space is fine when its seq is at or below the cursor,
+ * where the target will page to it, and otherwise only when its line is present
+ * below. A row whose seq the retrieval never knew is admitted on presence alone,
+ * because nothing places it relative to the cursor.
+ *
+ * And in ONE seq space, on BOTH sides of the match. A seq is only a number until
+ * a Session is named beside it, so a row from another Session's space can
+ * neither satisfy an endpoint nor prove a named row is present — matching by seq
+ * alone is correct per row and ambiguous per Session, which is how a claim
+ * spanning a fork chain's two spaces passed a check that agreed with it. The
+ * same ambiguity reaches the LINES: every space's lines ship in one array, two
+ * Sessions can render byte-identical turns, and both of this builder's drops
+ * take the oldest rows first — so the copy left standing can be the foreign one.
+ * Matched by text alone it answered the search for a dropped own row, and the
+ * claim shipped over a row the target never received. So each rendered line
+ * carries the space of the row that produced it, and only the claim's own
+ * Session's lines are searched.
+ *
+ * It cannot check what it cannot see: rows the retrieval never fetched are
+ * outside the span by construction, and a later owner that edits the sealed text
+ * is past this point. `fitHappierReplaySeedWithinTotalBudget` is that owner, and
+ * it holds the same invariant structurally instead — the claim sits at the head
+ * of the one array both truncators slice from the tail, so it survives only when
+ * the body was not trimmed at all.
+ *
+ * Returns the range when it verified and `null` when it did not — and `null` is
+ * the wording that makes no claim, never a missing pointer. Saying nothing costs
+ * the target a re-read of a tail it already holds; saying something false costs
+ * it those rows forever.
+ *
+ * ACCEPTED BOUND: this refuses some claims that would have been true. An
+ * unnumbered row cannot be placed against the cursor, so when one of the
+ * pointer's own is dropped the span is refused even though every numbered row it
+ * names is present. The trade runs one way only — a seeded sweep found 357 such
+ * refusals, all of them that shape, and no widening — and one way is the

+ * the seed alone and the prompt overruns it by the reference block — bounded,

+ *
+ * The seed is the part that gives, not the reference block: the block carries
+ * Session identities that must never be truncated, while the seed already has a
+ * budget-loss vocabulary.
+ *
+ * The seed gives way through its own grammar, not as an opaque string. Clipping
+ * the sealed text blindly is what made this reachable and silent: at a
+ * reservation the configured minimum can produce, the clip landed inside the
+ * header — or, smaller still, returned a sliced omission notice — so the
+ * provider received no conversation and no footer, and because that fragment is
+ * non-empty the caller counted the seed as delivered and retired it, blanking
+ * `seedText` and destroying the replay context it never sent. So the frame and
+ * footer are kept whole, only transcript lines give way, and when no whole line
+ * survives the seed is dropped. The sole caller treats an empty fit as an
+ * UNDELIVERED seed and leaves it unsettled for the next dispatch.
+ *
+ * Nothing in the frame states which transcript rows the prompt carries, and that
+ * is a layout invariant rather than an accident here: the pointer's range claim
+ * is emitted at the head of the transcript region, so this function deletes the
+ * claim with the rows it names instead of having to notice, after the fact, that
+ * it should. The only claim it can still meet in a frame is one sealed by the
+ * predecessor layout, which is removed rather than rewritten.
