SessionJob rows carry outputTotal exactly for record-declaring jobs, and a
new session.observeJob stream serves one job's retained record from an
absolute offset (anchor, coalesced output frames, terminal status) with the
fenced read resolved from the request's session — the same authorization
shape as the jobs roster. The client half gains ctx.jobOutput: the
reference-counted per-job observation service and its accumulated view
model, ported from the activity controller this replaces.
Single RemoteError with a merge-extensible, domain-prefixed code map;
owners throw at the failure point; streams surface marked failures;
clients consume ctx.remote directly with isRemoteFailure as the only
discrimination point and construct no failure instances.
The web task list gains a two-press stop control on running job rows, built on
one seam change: JobRegistry.kill now takes { reason?, reported? } instead of a
positional reason. reported defaults to true (the model's job_kill claims the
terminal report exactly as before); the web path passes reported: false because
a human kill has no model-visible channel, so the settlement flows through the
existing tool-jobs completion notice (wakeup/inject, budgets, truncation all
unchanged). A recorded kill reason merges into a killed settlement's detail
(producer facts first: 'signal: SIGTERM; cancelled by the user'), so the notice
and the web row both say who stopped the work.
- session-controller: session.killJob Remote beside cancel, live-only Agent
lookup, job-not-found/jobs-unavailable rejections joined to the closed RPC
error table; ClientSession.killJob and the ISession face carry it to the UI.
- ui-activity: arm/confirm stop button (3s disarm, pending disable, failure
hint), rendered only on running job rows; standalone activities keep no kill
handle and the README limitation now says so.
- The background-job-list web e2e now drives the whole human path through the
button; goldens show the merged killed detail end to end.
- Agent Note 2026-08-26-human-job-kill records the decision against Kimi's
suppress-own-notification precedent and Claude Code's silent-kill failure;
the 2026-08-08 blocker note and the unified-task-list note point at it.
