Include unstarted launched children in the 1.x pending-work signal.

The 1.x runtime reports pending background work only for busy child sessions. A launched child that has not reported busy yet is still retained as running, but it does not pin idle release. Idle release can then close the provider scope. That closes the event stream and discards the closure-local launch state, so the retained subagent can stay running with no session to stop it.

Count unstarted children as pending work, consistent with the retention check at lines 1484-1485. The existing maxIdlePinMs bound still applies. The assertion at adapter.test.ts:1476 that expects false for starts=false must change with this edit.

Suggested fix 

-          hasPendingBackgroundWork: Effect.sync(() => busySessionIds.size > 0),
+          hasPendingBackgroundWork: Effect.sync(
+            () => busySessionIds.size > 0 || unstartedSessionIds.size > 0,
+          ),

Review comment at @packages/provider-opencode/src/server/adapter.ts at line 1020:
Update the 1.x `hasPendingBackgroundWork` signal to treat both busy sessions and launched-but-unstarted sessions as pending, using `busySessionIds` and `unstartedSessionIds`. Preserve the existing `maxIdlePinMs` bound, and update the `adapter.test.ts` assertion for `starts=false` to expect pending work.

Track resumed background children until they report busy.

A task_id call resumes an existing child. Only newly created children enter unstartedSessionIds, so a resumed child is not tracked before it reports busy. If the background call completes before the resumed child reports busy, context.launch is cleared and the subagent reports completed. Its later busy event does not restore the running state or the Stop control.

Track a resumed child as pending launch, as a newly created child is tracked. Clear that marker on busy, idle, or deletion, as the existing paths do. Add a test where the resume's completed tool update precedes the child's busy event.

🟡 Medium server/adapter.ts:1585

A launched child that errors before its first turn is projected is reported as completed, so the parent subagent loses its failure outcome. In that case lastTurn is undefined, and this fallback treats the missing turn as success; record the child session's error outcome independently of its active turn and use it when settling the launch.

Record child session errors that arrive before the first turn.

settleLaunchedSubagents derives a launched child's outcome from its last providerTurns entry. That map stays empty until the child's user message creates an active turn. The session.error handler finalizes only an active turn, so an error that arrives earlier leaves no outcome. The next idle event then settles the subagent as completed, whatever the error name, including MessageAbortedError.

This can occur if OpenCode emits a child session.error before the child's user message event. Events for a child session can arrive before its turn starts, so this order is possible.

Keep the terminal error for a child session when no turn is active. Make settleLaunchedSubagents use that stored outcome before it falls back to completed. Add this error-before-first-turn sequence to the existing lifecycle table in adapter.test.ts.
