Add assistant turn anchor live shadow feed

 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Added
+
+- **Stable Assistant Turn Anchors live shadow feed (#3926).** `attachLiveStream()` now creates a per-stream anchor registry and shadow-feeds non-token live activity boundaries into the existing `HermesAssistantTurnAnchors` owner, including aggregate reasoning, tools, control events, compression lifecycle, app errors, cancel, and a slim `done` payload. The feed is still renderer-neutral: Compact Worklog, Transparent Stream, `renderMessages()`, `S.messages`, `INFLIGHT`, and DOM continuity do not consume the live registry yet; token events and EventSource network `error` remain outside the shadow feed. Settled active assistant messages are stamped with `_anchor_stream_id` for the next reconciliation slice, and that ephemeral stamp is carried forward across session refreshes.

+## Slice 6 Live Shadow Feed
+
+`attachLiveStream()` now creates or reuses a per-stream local registry in
+`window._liveAnchorRegistries` and feeds current live activity events through
+`HermesAssistantTurnAnchors.applyAssistantTurnAnchorSourceEvent()`. This is a
+shadow feed only: Compact Worklog, Transparent Stream, `renderMessages()`,
+`S.messages`, `INFLIGHT`, and DOM continuity do not read from the registry yet.
+
+The feed intentionally skips `token` events. Token events can arrive at high
+frequency and would turn the anchor into a per-token append log before the
+renderer reconciliation slice has proven the row model. Reasoning deltas are
+also not fed one-by-one; Slice 6 flushes one aggregate reasoning event before a
+terminal or settled-restore path. The feed captures the non-token activity
+boundaries that define the future scene: interim assistant segments, tool
+start/complete, approval, clarify, goal continuation, pending steer leftovers,
+compression lifecycle, app errors, cancel, and done.
+
+The SSE `Last-Event-ID` value is copied into the source event before applying it
+to the registry, with current event-id fallbacks preserved. Existing registries
+are reused by `stream_id` so a reconnect continues the same dedupe ring instead
+of starting a parallel owner. Completed, errored, or cancelled streams schedule
+registry cleanup after a retention window. Permanently failed network-error
+paths schedule a shorter cleanup window after recovery/restore options are
+exhausted.
+
+The `done` feed is deliberately slim: status, usage, and creation timestamp are
+copied, but the full settled session payload is not duplicated into the live
+registry. When the active settled assistant message is available, it is stamped
+with `_anchor_stream_id` so later reconciliation can associate the settled
+message with the live shadow registry. That field is treated as client-side
+ephemeral turn metadata and is carried forward across session refreshes.
+
+EventSource network `error` remains a transport/recovery signal and is not fed
+as an anchor terminal event in this slice. Runtime app errors continue through
+the existing `apperror` event path and are fed as terminal activity only when
+they match the current session.
