allenliang2022 860a3c2458 fix(webui): keep stale transcript mounted while hidden-tab return reloads new messages (#5177)
After a hidden interval that added persisted messages (post-turn bg-review
writes, sibling-tab writes, the just-finished main turn flushing), switching
the tab back caused refreshActiveSessionIfExternallyUpdated('visible'|'focus')
to hit remoteCount !== localCount and call loadSession(sid, {force:true}),
which synchronously did S.messages = [] before awaiting the metadata +
messages fetches. The visible result was the entire conversation transcript
blanking for the round-trip and reappearing — '对话突然消失,重刷才回来'.

sessions.js itself warns about this 'disappear and reappear' tradeoff at the
top of the remoteCount/remoteLast guard, but only short-circuits the
metadata-only branch (#5061). #5122's 4-probe staged reconnect covers a
different path (SSE error with ready_state=2 on a visible tab) and does not
apply when the SSE error arrives while visibility_state='hidden' — that
bottoms out through _deferStreamErrorIfPageHidden before the reconnect block
ever runs.

Fix:

- refreshActiveSessionIfExternallyUpdated maps the visibility/focus recovery
  reasons ({visible, focus}) to a new keepStaleUntilLoaded option, forwarded
  to loadSession. The post-stream idle reconcile and the poll/external paths
  keep their existing behaviour.
- loadSession ANDs opts.keepStaleUntilLoaded with sameSessionForceReload (so
  cross-session switches still clear synchronously — leaving a prior
  session's transcript on screen during a navigation is the original bug
  the clear was written for) and, on that path, skips the synchronous
  S.messages/S.toolCalls/_messagesTruncated/_oldestIdx clear. The new
  transcript is SWAPPED into S.messages by _ensureMessagesLoaded(sid,
  {force:true}), so the user sees old DOM directly replaced by new DOM in a
  single render frame.
- _ensureMessagesLoaded grows an opts.force escape hatch so its 'messages
  already populated' early-return cannot skip the swap when stale messages
  are still in place.

Verified live on a source 8701 build:
- before: minHtmlObserved 65874, minKidsObserved 11 — 372 samples at 16ms,
  DOM html length NEVER dipped below the pre-call value during the reload.
- loadSession was called with force:true keepStale:true reason:'visible',
  outcome 'reloaded', sMsgs 21 → 1037, after kids 11 → 134 (single-frame
  swap).

Tests:

- tests/test_issue5177_hidden_tab_blank_gap.py (new, 7 cases): source-locks
  the keep-stale guard shape, the recovery-reason map, the
  _ensureMessagesLoaded opts.force escape hatch, and that the synchronous
  clear is wrapped in if(!_keepStaleUntilLoaded).
- Updated the two existing source-lock tests whose anchor strings included
  the loadSession call signature
  (tests/test_webui_external_refresh_frontend.py +
  tests/test_tars_scroll_reset_regressions.py) to match the new
  loadSession(... keepStaleUntilLoaded:_keepStaleUntilLoaded) form. No
  behavioural assertions changed.

Local: node --check static/sessions.js OK. 122 passed across
test_issue5177_hidden_tab_blank_gap.py + the full adjacent set
(external-refresh / journal-frontend / scroll-reset / reconnect-chronology /
inflight-stream-reuse / sse-error-multi-probe / issue4295 / issue4856).

"""Regression test pinning the #3306 fix.
#3306: `loadSession()` in static/sessions.js cleared `S.messages = []` BEFORE
issuing the API fetch and BEFORE `_ensureMessagesLoaded()` invoked the #3018
ephemeral-field carry-forward (`_carryForwardEphemeralTurnFields(S.messages||[],
msgs)`). Because the clear happened first, the carry-forward saw an empty
array and ephemeral turn fields (_turnUsage, _turnDuration, _turnTps,
_gatewayRouting, _statusCard) were dropped on every force-reload. The visible
symptom: the token-usage badge vanished ~10s after each assistant turn finished
when an external poll triggered loadSession(..., forceReload).
Fix: snapshot S.messages BEFORE the clear (only when force-reloading the
currently-active session) into a module-level `_pendingCarryForwardSnapshot`,
then consume it in `_ensureMessagesLoaded()` ahead of the live S.messages
(which is now []).
This file is the targeted source-text pin in the same style as
tests/test_issue3162_ensure_messages_loaded.py.
