Tasks: ☂️ Implement task pause/resume lifecycle #1248

Closed

Description

@mafredri

Implement task lifecycle management: auto-pause when idle, manual pause/resume, log visibility while paused, and conversation history restoration on resume.

PRD: PRD: Start/Pause/Resume the Task Workspace
RFC: RFC: Tasks: Start/Pause/Resume Lifecycle

Beta

Gist of Beta -- snapshots of Tasks (accessing logs of a paused Task), improved support for resuming tasks where we'll still have the previous state's context, new APIs for pause/resume, docs are a stretch. Only key modules will have been updated, can prioritize based on customer needs (Claude Code, maybe Codex).

Documentation (Beta)

Registry: agent-native resume wiring

Wires each agent's native resume mechanism so that enable_state_persistence = true (from #1257/#1258) actually results in a coherent experience. Without this, the UI shows history but agents start fresh.

Tickets 1-5 can proceed independently of #1257. Tickets 6-10 add enable_state_persistence = true and depend on #1257.
