BUILD-LOG.md: append-only union, refactor entries first, then the branch's.
docs/SESSIONS.md: append-only union, refactor entries first, then the branch's.
packages/bus/src/runtime.mjs: keep the organization usage timer and refactor's halted/invalid startup-recovery gate.
packages/harness/src/first-output.mjs: keep the branch's harness-neutral markers; refactor's empty-length rejection moves into the Pi monitor (packages/plugins/harness/pi/model-stream.mjs).
packages/harness/tests/runner.test.mjs: keep refactor's length-continuation cases and the branch's output-policy cases.
packages/plugins/harness/pi/index.mjs: keep the documented GLM limits and the branch's transport-based bundle.
Suites: 6356 pass, 32 fail; all 32 fail identically on both parents
(node_modules symlink EISDIR in pinned-copy and stack copy/release tests,
missing Python jsonschema in two conversation tests).
Pi could spend its output limit on thinking and the runner relayed an empty answer as a result. Preserve final stop metadata and allow two bounded continuations, accounting for the whole message in one transcript usage delta.
Record exhaustion on the message trail and notify the chief without an automatic reply cycle. Mount the shared notice prefix in the sandbox.
