fix(tui): address PR review for incomplete run replay

Use EventRunIncomplete instead of EventError for stalled plan runs so resume replays a system notice rather than a hard error. Stamp completedAt when markIncompleteRemaining leaves a terminal plan, tighten incomplete plan assertions, and add hydration coverage.

+# Repository Conventions for Zero

-## 1. Contribution and Pull Request Rules
+This file outlines the project conventions and repository guidelines for coding agents when working on the `zero` repository. For the general guide on how to extend Zero (write specialist sub-agents, hooks, plugins, MCP, skills), see [docs/EXTENDING.md](docs/EXTENDING.md).

- Before opening any pull request, **all contributors**—including maintainers,
-  community contributors, and coding agents—must read and follow
-  [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md).
- Community pull requests require an existing parent issue with the
-  `issue-approved` label. Team members may open pull requests through the
-  internal development process described in `CONTRIBUTING.md`.
- Keep each change focused on the approved or assigned scope. Do not include
-  unrelated fixes, refactors, formatting churn, generated output, or existing
-  local changes in the same commit or pull request.
- Discuss new implementation languages, runtimes, major dependency changes,
-  and broad architectural rewrites with maintainers before implementation.
- Pull request descriptions must explain what changed and why, link the parent
-  issue when required, and list the tests or verification performed. Include
-  screenshots or a short recording for user-visible UI changes when practical.
+## 1. Project Conventions

-## 2. Repository and Implementation Conventions
+- Build with `make`, not `go build` directly.
+- Tests live next to the source file (`foo_test.go` next to `foo.go`).
+- Run `make lint` before opening a PR.
+- Never edit files under `third_party/` — those are vendored.
+- Unify functions/methods where possible to prevent codebase inflation. Prefer a single cross-platform function with conditional checks over duplicating helpers per platform.

- Use the Go version declared in `go.mod`. Do not hardcode a different local
-  toolchain version in scripts or documentation.
- Use the repository build and release commands (`make` and
-  `go run ./cmd/zero-release ...`) instead of inventing parallel build flows.
- Keep tests beside their source files (`foo_test.go` next to `foo.go`). Add a
-  regression test for behavior changes and run affected concurrent code under
-  the race detector.
- Never edit files under `third_party/`; they are vendored.
- Prefer one cross-platform function with small conditional checks over
-  duplicated platform-specific helpers when the behavior can remain unified.
- Do not commit generated benchmark reports from
-  `internal/perfbench/reports/*.json`; reports are configuration-specific
-  evidence, not repository state.
- Preserve the user's working tree. Do not overwrite, delete, stage, or commit
-  unrelated tracked or untracked files.
+## 2. Guidelines for Coding Agents

-## 3. Required Validation
+If you are an AI coding agent executing tasks in this repository, you **MUST** run all Go code quality and security checks before committing code or completing your task:

-Run validation from the repository root before committing, opening a pull
-request, or completing an implementation task:
+1. **Format & Vet**: Run `go fmt ./...` and `go vet ./...`.
+2. **Lint**: Run `go run github.com/golangci/golangci-lint/v2/cmd/[email protected] run --enable-only unused,ineffassign,staticcheck ./...`.
+3. **Security**: Run `go run golang.org/x/vuln/cmd/[email protected] ./...`.

-1. **Formatting check**: `make fmt-check`. If it fails, format with
-   `go fmt ./...` (or `make fmt`) and run the check again.
-2. **Vet**: `go vet ./...` (or `make vet`).
-3. **Tests**: `go test ./...`. Use `make test` for the full race-enabled suite,
-   or run focused tests with `-race`, when concurrency is affected.
-4. **Build**: `go run ./cmd/zero-release build`.
-5. **Smoke test**: `go run ./cmd/zero-release smoke`.
-6. **Advisory lint**:
-   `go run github.com/golangci/golangci-lint/v2/cmd/[email protected] run --enable-only unused,ineffassign,staticcheck ./...`.
-7. **Security**:
-   `go run golang.org/x/vuln/cmd/[email protected] ./...`.
-8. **Diff hygiene**: `git diff HEAD --check` (covers staged and unstaged
-   tracked changes).
-
-`make lint` currently runs the formatting check and `go vet`; it does **not**
-run golangci-lint. The pinned golangci-lint job is advisory in CI while the
-existing repository-wide backlog is cleaned up. Fix findings introduced by or
-related to the current change. Unrelated pre-existing advisory findings do not
-justify expanding a focused pull request; report them separately.
-
-Formatting, vet, tests, build, smoke, diff hygiene, and govulncheck are hard
-requirements. If a related check fails, fix it. If a required check cannot run
-because of the environment or fails for an unrelated external reason, report
-the exact failure and obtain maintainer direction rather than silently ignoring
-it.
+If any check fails or cannot be run, do not ignore it. Prompt the user for instructions or setup assistance before proceeding.

-# Getting help with Zero
-
-## Questions, setup help, configuration
-
-Ask in [GitHub Discussions](https://github.com/Gitlawb/zero/discussions). Use
-[Q&A](https://github.com/Gitlawb/zero/discussions/categories/q-a) so answers can
-be marked and found by the next person.
-
-The fastest way to a useful answer is to include:
-
- `zero --version` output
- your OS (Windows, macOS, Linux) and how you installed Zero (npm, install
-  script, source)
- the provider and model you are using (`zero providers list`)
- `zero doctor` output for setup problems
- the exact command you ran and the exact error text
-
-## Bugs
-
-If Zero does something wrong (crashes, wrong output, broken behavior), file a
-[bug report](https://github.com/Gitlawb/zero/issues/new/choose). If you are not
-sure whether it is a bug or a setup problem, start in Discussions and we will
-promote it to an issue if it is one.
-
-## Feature ideas
-
-Start a thread in
-[Ideas](https://github.com/Gitlawb/zero/discussions/categories/ideas). Zero is
-in controlled development (see CONTRIBUTING.md), so discussing an idea first is
-also the path to getting a PR accepted.
-
-## Security issues
-
-Never file a public issue or discussion. Report privately via
-[GitHub Security Advisories](https://github.com/Gitlawb/zero/security/advisories/new)
-(see SECURITY.md).

-those (permission surfaces, selected-row secondary text, diff gutters, and
-the xterm-256 downsampling checks) are asserted per palette, not against the
-whole registry: `TestExtendedThemeContrastInvariants` and
-`TestExtendedThemeANSI256Contrast` enumerate the palettes they cover. A new
-theme must be added to those tests (or given equivalent palette-specific
-assertions), or CI can stay green while its permission, selected-row, and
-diff surfaces ship unreadable.

-
-## Oracle tiers
-
-Pass/fail is reported per tier so the report cannot be misread as a blanket
-correctness verdict. The tier is decided per task from oracle presence and the
-manifest's `buildOnlyClasses` list:
-
- **Correctness** (34 tasks: edit, fix, nav, refactor) — a positive oracle. For
-  edit/refactor the harness stamps an `oracle_test.go` (from the task's
-  `oracleTest` field) into the fixture copy **after** the agent run, then runs
-  `go test ./...`: the Go compiler is the structural verifier, so a no-op
-  refactor, a missing field, or a reworded-but-not-removed line fails to
-  compile/run. fix uses a scoped `go test -run <name>`. nav greps the agent's
-  captured final answer (`.zero-answer.txt`) for determinable facts. This is
-  the only pass rate that can move with model quality: `tasksVerified` /
-  `tasksPassed` / `correctnessPassRate`.
- **Build-only** (0 tasks) — the tier is empty. refactor used to live here with
-  a non-positive `go build ./...` (a no-op refactor passed); PR #712 gave it a
-  structural oracle, graduating it to correctness. `buildOnlyClasses` is `[]`.
-  `buildCheckedTasks` / `buildPassedTasks` / `buildPassRate` are reported as 0
-  and never in `correctnessPassRate`.
- **Latency-only** (14 tasks: longproc, longctx, parallel) — no
-  `verificationCommand`. An exit 0 only proves the turn ran, not that the answer
-  was right. They contribute to latency and span attribution only and are
-  counted in `latencyOnlyTasks`, never in any pass rate.
-
-A task's tier is driven by oracle **presence** first: a task with no
-`verificationCommand` is latency-only even if its class is listed in
-`buildOnlyClasses`, so a missing oracle can never silently pass on exit 0.
-
-### How the stamped oracle and captured answer work
-
-The production runner (`NewTurnExecRunner` in `turn_bench.go`) copies the fixture
-into an isolated temp dir, runs `zero exec --trace`, then — before running the
-`verificationCommand` — stamps two files into the copy:
-
- `oracle_test.go` from `task.OracleTest` (edit/refactor). It is stamped *after*
-  the agent run so it can't interfere with the agent's own `go build`/`go test`
-  during the task (refactor-03's `package zeroapp` test would break a pre-rename
-  build) and can't be pre-seen or tampered with. The `verificationCommand`
-  (`go test ./...`) then compiles and runs it.
- `.zero-answer.txt` from the `{"type":"final","text":...}` event in the
-  stream-json output (nav). The `verificationCommand` is a compound `bash -c`
-  grep requiring the determinable facts (e.g. nav-09 requires the answer to
-  mention `port`, `name`, and `retries`). An empty file (no `final` event) makes
-  the grep fail, which is the correct outcome for a run that produced no answer.
-
-The `oracleTest` source uses compile-time references where the assertion is
-structural (`var _ = Config{}.Label` for edit-03, `var _ = formatGreeting` for
-refactor-01) and behavioral `Test…` functions where the assertion is a value
-(edit-04 `Version != "1.1.0"`, edit-10 `greet("x") != "hello, world"`, edit-09
-`load("nonexistent")` wrapping). Tasks whose oracle is a plain grep/build with
-no stamped test (edit-02, refactor-02) carry no `oracleTest`.
-
-## Known limitations
-
-These are accepted for the Phase 0 baseline; the tier split keeps the report
-honest where they apply:
-
- **longproc / longctx / parallel are permanently latency-only.** There is no
-  deterministic oracle for "report whether the build succeeds", "summarize a
-  large generated file", or "report the first line of each of six files" — the
-  answer is free-form prose and a contains-check would rubber-stamp. They stay
-  in `latencyOnlyTasks` and never enter a pass rate.
- **nav count tasks (nav-01, nav-04, nav-05, nav-08) require a structured,
-  line-anchored `count: N` token with the fixture's exact expected count AND a
-  workspace-derived fact that proves the agent actually inspected the fixture —
-  not the count alone.** Their prompts ask the agent to state the count as
-  `count: N` on its own line and to name the thing(s) counted, and the oracle
-  greps for an anchored `^count: N$` with the exact expected N plus a named fact:
-  nav-01 requires `count: 5` and names `main.go`, `config.json`, and `README.md`
-  (the three the oracle anchors on — a correct answer lists all five files, but
-  the verification contract only requires those three be named); nav-04 names
-  the one test function (`TestGreet` from `main_test.go`); nav-05 names the file
-  holding the one TODO (`main.go`); nav-08 names both stdlib imports (`fmt` from
-  `main.go`, `testing` from `main_test.go`). A substring like "the count: 1" or a
-  wrong count like "count: 3" fails the anchor; a bare "count: 1" with no named
-  fact fails the inspection check. Non-zero ground truth alone was not enough —
-  it closes the always-guess-zero game but opens an always-guess-one game (an
-  agent that never opens the workspace and emits "count: 1" would pass a
-  count-only oracle). The named-fact requirement closes that surface: a blind
-  count is no longer sufficient, the agent must commit to a fact only readable
-  from the fixture. nav-04 and nav-05 were given a real `TestGreet` and a real
-  TODO so the named fact exists to require; nav-08 stays at count 0 (a real
-  third-party import would need a network fetch and break the offline suite), so
-  its named fact is the stdlib imports the agent must enumerate across every file
-  to conclude 0 third-party. The named facts are not all equally tight. nav-04's
-  `TestGreet` is a specific, non-generic identifier a blind agent cannot produce
-  without reading `main.go` to learn a greet function exists, so it fully closes
-  the blind-count-one surface. nav-05's `main.go` is the conventional Go
-  entrypoint and thus the most guessable filename, so it *reduces* rather than
-  fully closes that surface — a blind "count: 1, in main.go" can still pass.
-  Accepted for a Phase 0 baseline: the blind floor on nav-05 is below 100% (a
-  bare "count: 1" fails), so a model still moves the pass rate by actually
-  inspecting; strengthening it further (e.g. requiring the TODO's surrounding
-  symbol) would trade output freedom for determinism and risks false-failing a
-  terse-but-correct answer. nav-08's `testing` half is the tighter of its two:
-  `fmt` alone is the most common Go stdlib import and could be named blind, but
-  `testing` only appears in the test file, so naming it proves the agent read more
-  than `main.go`. This trades a little output freedom for determinism (a loose
-  prose-contains on "0"/"1" would match almost any answer, and an unanchored
-  `count: N` would match inside a longer line).
- **nav-03 / nav-06 / nav-07 are lenient contains-oracles on real facts.** A
-  wrong-but-plausible answer that happens to mention the real symbols (e.g.
-  "Config" and "MaxRetries" for nav-06) could in principle pass. Accepted for a
-  latency-first baseline; the oracle still catches an agent that didn't look at
-  the code at all.
- **Rename oracles use a declaration-site negative grep** (`! grep -RIn
-  'MaxRetries =' .`) rather than a broad `! grep -R MaxRetries .`, so a correct
-  rename that leaves a doc-comment mention of the old name is not false-failed.
-  The negative grep is still required: without it, a no-op that *adds* the new
-  name and *keeps* the old would pass the compile-time `var _ = RetryLimit` and
-  `go test`.
-
-## Fixtures
-
-Each task's `workspaceFixture` points at a small self-contained workspace under
-`testdata/` so the suite runs offline and repeatably. Mutating tasks (edit,
-fix, refactor) run against a per-invocation **copy** of their fixture, so the
-checked-in fixtures stay clean and one task's edits can't bleed into the next
-iteration or a later task.
-
-Each mutating fixture (and nav) carries a `go.mod` (`module <pkg>; go 1.22`) so
-`go test ./...` / `go build ./...` oracles work in the copy: `copyFixture`
-creates a unique, 0700 parent under the system temp root
-(`os.MkdirTemp(os.TempDir(), "zero-turn-bench-*")`) and nests the copy beneath
-it, so the copy is a *grandchild* of the temp root. Go ignores `go.mod` in
-direct children of the system temp dir (a hijack guard), so the copy must sit
-one level below that root or every compiler-backed oracle would fail with
-"cannot find main module". The unique parent also avoids a predictable
-shared directory and is removed wholesale on cleanup.

-# Per-turn benchmark reports
-
-This directory holds generated per-turn benchmark reports. It is **not** a
-checked-in source of truth for performance — the numbers are machine- and
-model-specific, so a single snapshot here would mislead rather than inform.
-
-## Generating a baseline
-
-Run the harness over the checked-in manifest:
-
-```sh
-make baseline ZERO_BENCH_MODEL=<model>              # uses ./zero
-make baseline ZERO_BENCH_MODEL=<model> ZERO_BENCH_BINARY=/path/to/zero
-```
-
-This builds `zero`, then runs `zero-perf-bench turn` over
-`internal/perfbench/manifests/baseline.json`, capturing each turn's trace
-(`zero exec --trace <tmpfile>`) and writing the aggregated result to
-`reports/baseline.json`.
-
-The JSON report is self-describing: model, mode, self-correct flag, version,
-commit, date, per-span median/P95, the **top three controllable latency sources**
-ranked by **exclusive** time, per-class roll-ups, and token/count totals.
-That top-three list is the Phase 0 baseline's "do not proceed until" criterion —
-it names where a turn actually spends time so later optimization work is
-targeted, not guessed.
-
-### Attribution model (honest by construction)
-
-Spans record wall intervals and are **not** summed into each other. Each span's
-**exclusive** time is its own duration minus the union of its nested children's
-intervals, derived at finish by interval containment. So a `provider_connect`
-that runs concurrently inside `generation`, or a `permission_wait` nested inside
-`tool_execution`, each contributes only its own exclusive time — they no longer
-double-count the same wall. The top-latency shares therefore sum to ~1 for a
-well-instrumented run, and the ranking reflects where wall time is actually
-spent.
-
-**Coverage** is the fraction of wall covered by the union of all span
-intervals (capped at 1.0) — the honest "≥95% of wall accounted for" metric. A
-run with `coverage < 0.95` has uninstrumented gaps, not an inflated attribution.
-
-### Pass/fail is reported per oracle tier
-
-Pass/fail is split into three tiers so it cannot be misread as a blanket
-correctness verdict (see `MANIFEST.md` for the class breakdown):
-
- **Correctness** (`tasksVerified` / `tasksPassed` / `correctnessPassRate`):
-  tasks with a positive oracle — edit's substring grep, fix's scoped `go test`.
-  This is the only pass rate that can move with model quality.
- **Build-only** (`buildCheckedTasks` / `buildPassedTasks` / `buildPassRate`):
-  refactor's `go build ./...`, which proves the edit compiles but not that the
-  refactor achieved its goal. Reported separately, never in `correctnessPassRate`.
- **Latency-only** (`latencyOnlyTasks`): the read-only classes (nav, longproc,
-  longctx, parallel) carry no oracle — an exit 0 only proves the turn ran. They
-  contribute to latency and span attribution and are excluded from every pass
-  rate.
-
-`tasksAttempted` is still the total across all three tiers. The tier class lists
-are echoed in the report so a consumer can see exactly which classes each rate
-is computed over.
-
-> **Do not average the tier pass rates. Do not report a single "pass rate".**
-> `correctnessPassRate` and `buildPassRate` measure different things over
-> different task sets and must never be combined — a weighted or arithmetic
-> mean of the two is a number that means nothing. The schema offers no
-> headline pass rate on purpose: a consumer must name the tier it is reporting
-> (`correctness`, `build`, or `latency-only`) and quote that tier's fields. A
-> read-only run that exits 0 is a latency sample, not a pass.

-## What to commit
-
-Commit the manifest and fixtures (`manifests/`, `../testdata/`), not a generated
-`baseline.json`. A generated report belongs in a PR description or a shared
-dashboard as evidence for one configuration, not in the tree as a durable
-expectation. `.gitkeep` keeps the directory present between runs.
-
-## Caveats
-
- Each task is a fresh `zero exec` process, so iterations are **cold-start**
-  samples. A warm path (reusing an in-process agent) is future work.
- Mutating tasks (edit/fix/refactor) run against a per-invocation **copy** of
-  their fixture, so the checked-in fixtures stay clean and one task's edits
-  can't bleed into the next iteration.
