Durable replica reads could race accepted directory replacements and restore rows that had already been removed in memory. Serialize reads behind pending writes and discard reads when the host changes in flight; local archives also suppress targeted cache restoration until removal is acknowledged.
* fix(app): paint cached conversations before reconnect
Cold startup restored every saved host before publishing any session, so a valid cached chat was blocked behind unrelated directory validation and network-only readiness. Directory and timeline owners now resolve demand through typed storage and authoritative reconciliation while consumers remain source-agnostic.
* fix(app): stabilize demand-driven cache restore
Create host projections before network availability, route cached workspace and timeline preparation through their owners, and coalesce directory reconciliation per online connection. Update browser cache fixtures for per-agent timeline rows.
* fix(app): resume cached timeline through owner
* fix(app): surface timeline owner load errors
Persist only changed replica entities so steady-state writes scale with the update rather than the complete cached world. Restore remains an all-or-nothing validated boundary, with whole-host byte-budget eviction.
* perf(timeline): resume cached history from its exact range
Warm launches were repainting cached history and then downloading the same bounded tail to rediscover that nothing changed. Persist synchronization authority only when the complete current canonical window can be encoded losslessly; otherwise retain the existing display-only fallback.
* test(timeline): hide replica setup behind E2E helper
* fix(timeline): bound persisted resume overflow
* test(timeline): cover workspace eviction catch-up order
* test(timeline): read persisted range from IndexedDB
* feat(sync): restore host directories before reconnect
Persist complete project, workspace, and active-agent replicas so every registered host can paint immediately, including offline hosts. Reconcile those replicas through monotonic per-entity cursors on the existing directory RPCs without retaining an event journal.
* fix(sync): preserve active turn identity during catch-up
Own Agent-to-wire projection beside the existing snapshot normalizer so replica persistence does not reach through directory-sync internals. This also keeps identified active turns intact when unchanged agents are folded into an incremental directory response.
* test(e2e): inspect the real IndexedDB replica
Keep cache setup, reload, and hydration coverage on the production browser storage backend after the replica moved off localStorage. Measure writes at the actual IndexedDB put boundary as well.

* feat(sync): persist project icons and deepen directory sync
