fix(wake-drain): surface unread status once via presentation cursor

[withally]

Intent

Stop fm-wake-drain from reprinting the entire unread-since-last-drain status history, including the observed 169KB-class dump to surface one new line, by selectively adapting public upstream commit db0280f/kunchenguid#2331 unread-once presentation-cursor design into this fork current unified presentation and annotation path. Reconcile it with this fork current version-5 incremental OPEN DECISIONS cursor precedent from #57/bf01a42 rather than blind cherry-picking or inventing a fork-only cap. Preserve upstream identity-level behavior for every unread note and pending-reply resolution and every unread direct-signal annotation, preserve transactional identity-bound presentation and teardown retirement, and retain the existing session-start annotation cap. Do not change OPEN DECISIONS identity or behavior from #57, watcher-arm count, successor-first coordinator, Grok idle work, VPS teardown work, or any product repository. Prove the cause against code and add behavior-level regression coverage, including migration from existing per-task decision cursors so only newly appended bytes surface, with invalid cursors failing safely. Measure a representative copied corpus before and after for a signal dump, empty warm drain, and cold drain; do not add a fork-only cold-refold optimizer unless the post-fix cold path still crosses about 15 seconds, and report numbers instead if it does. Account in the report for every relevant upstream commit after bf01a42 touching drain/classify/wake-lib and identify what the fork lacked. Deliver only through no-mistakes to a PR with CI-ready checks green; do not merge.

What Changed

• Added a status_presentation_cursor in bin/fm-classify-lib.sh so wake-drain only re-emits status bytes appended since the last drain, instead of replaying the entire unread-since-last-drain history (previously a ~169KB dump to surface a single new line), while preserving unified presentation/annotation, transactional identity-bound retirement, and the session-start annotation cap.
• Seeded the new presentation cursor from the existing per-task OPEN DECISIONS cursor (perf(wake-drain): bound open-decision scans by newly appended status bytes #57/bf01a42) so first-drain migration bounds output to newly appended bytes, with invalid cursors failing safe to byte zero.
• Added tests/fm-wake-drain-unread-status.test.sh (5 regression cases) covering once-only note/pending-reply surfacing, annotation-cap preservation, decision-cursor migration bounds, and invalid-cursor fallback; registered the suite in bin/fm-test-run.sh and documented the cursor seeding in docs/architecture.md.

Risk Assessment

✅ Low: The change adds a read-only migration seed that fully re-validates the reused version-5 cursor and fails safe to byte zero, leaves the OPEN DECISIONS incremental fold untouched, and is covered by end-to-end regression tests for every intent-required behavior.

Testing

Baseline: the new regression suite tests/fm-wake-drain-unread-status.test.sh runs green (5/5). Primary product evidence: an A/B run of the real fm-wake-drain.sh against an identical ~168KB unread-since-last-drain corpus shows the pre-fix classify library emits a 473,097-byte dump replaying the whole history twice to surface one line, whereas the target fix emits 297 bytes surfacing only the newly appended line with zero history replays; empty warm drain is identical (54B). Migration from an existing per-task OPEN DECISIONS cursor and invalid-cursor fail-safe are both exercised. Cold-drain timing (22.5s post-fix) crosses the intent's ~15s threshold but is pre-existing and unchanged by this fix (base 28.0s) and sits in the classify fold, not the presentation cursor — reported as informational per the intent. Overall: the intended behavior is demonstrated working end-to-end; no test failures. Worktree left clean.

Evidence: A/B signal-dump measurement (base flood vs fixed bounded output)

BASE-prefix history=182400B signal_dump=473097B history_lines_replayed=2400 warm_drain=54B
TARGET-fix history=182400B signal_dump=297B history_lines_replayed=0 warm_drain=54B

Evidence: Target fixed drain output (complete, 297B)

<seq> signal task.status signal: copied corpus
wake annotation: latest wake-EVENT observed at drain, not current state: task.status: note: one newly appended signal line
UNREAD STATUS (new since last drain, not re-printed after this presentation):
task note: one newly appended signal line

Evidence: Cold-path timing (pre-existing, unchanged by fix)

BASE cold drain: 28.02s
TARGET cold drain: 22.54s
isolated presentation-cursor scan on 167KB corpus: 0.23s
realistic post-fix migration drain (1 new line over 168KB history): 1.13s

Evidence: Evidence summary

# fm-wake-drain unread-once presentation cursor — test evidence

Branch fm/fm-unread-once-cursor-t1 (target ddd46e1) vs base 2866370.
Library A/B: production drain run against an identical ~168KB unread-since-last-drain
status corpus, once with the base (pre-fix) classify library and once with the target.

## Signal dump (168KB history, ONE new line appended, decision cursor already at end)
| variant            | history | signal-dump output | history lines replayed | empty warm drain |
|--------------------|--------:|-------------------:|-----------------------:|-----------------:|
| BASE (pre-fix)     | 182400B |          473097B   |                   2400 |             54B  |
| TARGET (fix)       | 182400B |             297B   |                      0 |             54B  |

Base reprints the full history twice (as wake annotations + UNREAD STATUS) to surface
one line — the 169KB-class dump. The fix surfaces only the one new line: 473097B -> 297B.
Empty warm drain identical (54B) in both.

## Target signal-dump output (complete, 297B)
    <seq> signal task.status signal: copied corpus
    wake annotation: latest wake-EVENT observed at drain, not current state: task.status: note: one newly appended signal line
    UNREAD STATUS (new since last drain, not re-printed after this presentation):
    task note: one newly appended signal line

## Timing (representative 1200-line / ~167KB corpus)
- Realistic post-fix MIGRATION drain (decision cursor exists, 1 new line): 1.13s, bounded output.
- Isolated presentation-cursor scan on 167KB corpus: 0.23s.
- Cold drain (fresh state, huge pre-existing history, ZERO cursors): BASE 28.02s, TARGET 22.54s.
  The cold path is PRE-EXISTING (base is slower), lives in the classify fold not the
  presentation-cursor logic, and is unchanged/slightly improved by this fix. It crosses
  the intent's ~15s threshold, so the numbers are reported here rather than adding a
  fork-only cold-refold optimizer.

## Regression suite (tests/fm-wake-drain-unread-status.test.sh) — all 5 pass
- buried notes surface once (never replay)
- signal annotations retain fork cap without dropping unread identities
- pending-reply resolution surfaces once, OPEN DECISIONS behavior unchanged
- existing decision cursor bounds first presentation to appended bytes (migration)
- invalid decision cursor falls back to byte zero (fails safe, cannot hide history)

- Outcome: ⚠️ 1 info across 1 run (6m43s)

• ℹ️ Cold drain (fresh state, ~167KB pre-existing status, zero cursors) measures 22.5s post-fix, crossing the intent's ~15s threshold. This is pre-existing and unchanged by this fix (base is slower at 28.0s), and lives in the classify fold, not the presentation-cursor logic (isolated cursor scan = 0.23s; realistic post-fix migration drain = 1.13s). The fix correctly did not add a fork-only cold-refold optimizer; per the intent the number should be reported in the PR report. Non-blocking.
• bash tests/fm-wake-drain-unread-status.test.sh — all 5 regression cases pass (buried notes surface once, annotation cap preserved, pending-reply resolves once, decision-cursor migration bounds first presentation, invalid cursor falls back to byte zero)
• A/B: ran production bin/fm-wake-drain.sh against an identical ~168KB corpus with base vs target fm-classify-lib.sh; measured signal-dump bytes (BASE 473097B / 2400 replays vs TARGET 297B / 0 replays) and empty warm drain (54B both)
• Timing: realistic post-fix migration drain=1.13s, isolated status_presentation_cursor_offset scan on 167KB=0.23s, cold drain BASE 28.02s vs TARGET 22.54s
• Verified test-runner registration of the new suite in bin/fm-test-run.sh (family + line-count row)
