Agent Of Empires Daily: Terminal Session Recovery and Live-View Stability

Fourteen merged pull requests today center on making terminal sessions and the recovery system more durable, alongside a cluster of TUI live-preview fixes that closed out a multi-day flicker investigation.

PR 3013 fixes a clock-stability bug on macOS, where the recovery ledger's per-boot ID could shift mid-session because the kernel recomputes boot time against wall-clock corrections — causing stale…

Second theme: the live preview pane. Njbrake shipped a chain of three related fixes — PR 3005, 3010, and 3011 — all tracing back to the same root cause: a "Reviving session" toast frame briefly shrinking the preview's drawing area, which cascaded into cursor jolts, resize fights between processes, and jerky…
