The previous PR (#22993) gave us a structured WARNING per stream drop
but the only diagnostic was 'error_type=APIError error=Network
connection lost.' — same nothing the user started with. To actually
diagnose why subagents drop streams disproportionately we need to know
WHERE the drop happened.
Adds three breadcrumbs to the agent.log WARNING:
1. Inner exception chain. openai SDK wraps httpx errors as
APIConnectionError / APIError so the catch site only sees the
wrapper. _flatten_exception_chain walks __cause__/__context__ up to
4 levels deep and renders 'Outer(msg) <- Inner(msg)' so we can
tell ConnectError vs RemoteProtocolError vs ReadError vs
ProxyError without enabling verbose mode.
2. Upstream HTTP headers. Snapshots cf-ray, x-openrouter-provider,
x-openrouter-model, x-openrouter-id, x-request-id, server, via,
etc. from stream.response immediately after open (so they survive
even when the stream dies before the first chunk). These answer
'is one CF edge / one downstream provider responsible, or random?'
3. Per-attempt counters. bytes streamed, chunk count, elapsed time on
the dying attempt, and time-to-first-byte. Distinguishes 'couldn't
connect at all' (0s, 0 bytes) from 'died after 30s mid-stream'
(very different root causes — first is auth/routing, second is
upstream idle-kill or proxy timeout).
Plumbing:
- _stream_diag_init / _stream_diag_capture_response live on AIAgent
and produce a per-attempt dict held on request_client_holder['diag']
for closure access from the retry block.
- _call_chat_completions and _call_anthropic both initialize the diag
and increment counters per chunk/event (best-effort, never raises in
the streaming hot path).
- _log_stream_retry / _emit_stream_drop accept an optional diag and
render the new fields. Final-exhaustion log goes through the same
helper so it gets the same diagnostic dump.
- UI status line gains a brief 'after Xs' suffix when timing is
available — distinguishes 'connect failed' from 'died mid-stream'
at a glance without grepping logs.
Sample WARNING after this change:
Stream drop mid tool-call on attempt 2/3 — retrying.

Subagent stream drops were spamming the parent terminal with two lines
per blip ('Connection dropped...' + 'Reconnected...') while leaving zero
breadcrumb in agent.log to debug them.
Two underlying bugs, fixed together:
1. quiet_mode raised the run_agent/tools/etc. loggers to ERROR, which
filters records before root-logger file handlers see them. The comment
claimed 'File handlers still capture everything' — that was wrong.
Removed in both run_agent.py and cli.py; console quietness already
comes from hermes_logging not installing a console StreamHandler in
non-verbose mode.
2. The stream-retry blocks emitted two _emit_status calls per drop
('⚠️ Connection dropped... Reconnecting...' + '🔄 Reconnected —
resuming…') with no provider name, so multi-provider sessions had to
dig through agent.log to attribute a drop. Replaced both call sites
with a single _emit_stream_drop helper that emits ONE line naming the
provider and error class, and always writes a structured WARNING to
agent.log with subagent_id, depth, provider, base_url, error_type.
Net UX change: 6 lines per triple-subagent drop → 3 lines, each
naming the provider. agent.log now has a structured breadcrumb per
retry that didn't exist before.
Tests: 6 new tests in tests/run_agent/test_stream_drop_logging.py
covering the logger-level guard, structured WARNING content, single
status line per drop (no Reconnected follow-up), and provider naming.
