Agent Of Empires Daily: Status Truth and Release Hardening

Right behind it, PR 3706 and PR 3700 closed a real security gap: automated…

What's next: watch for 1.15.3 to land with the idle-detection and archived-session fixes, and expect more cleanup as PR 3716 splits oversized modules for maintainability.
