Preserve event order while replaying buffered updates.

callbacksReady becomes true before pendingUpdates finishes draining. If text and turn-ended were buffered, an asynchronous text callback can let a live close notification enter callbackChain before the buffered turn-ended. The replay then changes "closed" back to "ended". Two minutes later, the watchdog cancels a run whose stream already closed, including a running stop hook.

Enqueue the complete buffered batch before allowing live events to bypass it. Extend the existing test table with closure during buffered-update replay.

Review comment at @packages/provider-cursor/src/server/CursorAgentSdk.ts at line 615:
Update the buffered-update replay around dispatchUpdate so the entire pendingUpdates batch is enqueued on callbackChain before live events can bypass it, preserving buffered turn-ended before a live close notification. Extend the existing test table to cover closure during buffered-update replay and verify the run does not revert to ended or trigger watchdog cancellation.

Keep arbitrary cancellation errors out of log annotations.

If cancellation fails, cause contains the wrapped SDK error and its underlying defect. This annotation is not bounded. Log a normalized failure category instead, and keep the original error in the error’s cause.

As per coding guidelines: “Attributes and log annotations stay bounded” and contain no “arbitrary defect text.”

Review comment at @packages/provider-cursor/src/server/CursorAgentSdk.ts at line 755:
Update the cancellation-failure logging around the `cause` annotation to record only a bounded, normalized failure category instead of the wrapped SDK error or its defect text. Preserve the original error in the error’s `cause` so diagnostic details remain available there.

Keep watchdog-cancelled turns in the next send's context.

When the watchdog cancels a run, the runner reports it as finished. The adapter then skips interruptedPrompt, so the next send may not carry this turn's prompt. If Cursor drops cancelled runs from the agent's conversation, this exchange can disappear from native history while the turn reports success.

The converted result has no marker that tells the adapter this turn was watchdog-cancelled. A fix needs a signal from the runner that the adapter can use to preserve the prompt, without changing the reported finished status.

Review comment at @packages/provider-cursor/src/server/CursorAgentSdk.ts around lines 777 - 778:
Update the turnStreamAbandoned result conversion so it preserves a signal that lets the adapter include this turn’s prompt in the next send’s context when the watchdog cancelled the run. Keep the reported status as finished, and establish how the runner communicates that signal to the adapter without changing unrelated cancellation behavior.
