fix(agent-manager): resolve live managed worktree sessions

[marius-kilocode]

What Problem This Solves

Agent Manager can display a session inside a managed worktree even though the session exists only in the live project listing and has not been recorded in persisted worktree state. Prompt, answer, and move actions previously checked only persisted state, then incorrectly failed with "The session is not managed by this Agent Manager workspace". Stop also needed the exact worktree directory, and a stopped live-only session could become authorized again after restarting VS Code.

Why This Change Was Made

Resolve live-only sessions strictly from the project context that owns the request directory, and accept them only when their worktree is already present in that project's managed state. Persisted state remains authoritative, backend directory verification remains unchanged, and unrelated roots are never searched. Stop registers the verified worktree route and persists a bounded, project-scoped closed-session record. Explicitly attaching the session again clears that record, while deleted worktrees remove their associated records.

User Impact

Prompt, answer, move, and stop work for sessions shown in managed worktrees, including secondary projects and sessions discovered through another Agent Manager surface. Unknown sessions, foreign worktrees, cross-project requests, and stopped sessions remain rejected, including after a full VS Code restart. Existing session history is not deleted or automatically persisted as managed state.

Evidence

• Real VS Code extension instance, real kilo serve backend, real SSE orchestration, and a deterministic local OpenAI-compatible provider with no paid credentials.
• Created a primary managed worktree and a backend session intentionally absent from .kilo/agent-manager.json.
• Verified real agent_manager tool calls for move, prompt, answer to an actual pending question, and stop.
• Verified genuinely foreign sessions and a session belonging to another managed project are rejected.
• Added a second real Git project through VS Code's folder picker, created its managed worktree, and prompted its live-only session successfully.
• Restarted the VS Code window, verified both worktrees restored, confirmed active live-only sessions still work, and confirmed stopped sessions stay rejected.
• bun run test:unit: 4,191 passed, 0 failed across 353 files.
• bun run typecheck, bun run lint, bun run format:check, and bun run compile: passed.
