+ * THE PAUSED BATCH (9.113.0) — the turn that proposed the paused call, and
+ * the calls on it that a pause left un-dispatched.
+ *
+ * The batch loop in `execute` dispatches a turn's calls one at a time, in the
+ * order the model proposed them, and every pause RETURNS from inside it: the
+ * checkpoint is taken on call k, and calls k+1..N were never reached — no
+ * gate judged them, no tool ran, no bracket opened. The resume paths used to
+ * answer call k and stop, so the next request carried N `tool_use` blocks and
+ * fewer `tool_result`s (a provider builds results only from `role: 'tool'`
+ * messages), and `iteration_end` counted one call.
+ *
+ * READ FROM `history`, NEVER CARRIED. Every pause site commits
+ * `scope.history = newHistory` before it returns, so the assistant turn that
+ * proposed the batch is on the checkpoint — and it is the very message a
+ * provider turns into the `tool_use` blocks the settlement must answer. It is
+ * therefore the one owner of "which calls does the next request carry", and
+ * the checkpoint gains no key: a checkpoint written before this release
+ * settles the same way. The window never removes the turn holding the paused
+ * call (`../window/turns.ts` · `refusalFor`, its `paused-tool` arm).
+ *
+ * The LATEST turn proposing the id is the paused one — the pause site commits
+ * that turn last, and a provider may reuse an id across turns. No such turn:
+ * `size: 0` and nothing to settle, the only answer a missing turn supports.
+ *
+ * A call after the paused one that history ALREADY answers — a `role: 'tool'`
+ * message for its id after that turn — is not un-dispatched, whoever wrote
+ * the answer. No library door writes one before the resume; a checkpoint is
+ * data, though, and an app may have patched results into a stored one.

+ * credential's consent need — and on all four the run paused AT that call.
+ *
+ * The sentence is for the MODEL. The same fact as data rides the settled
+ * message as `LLMMessage.notDispatched` and both of its brackets as
