Brooklyn Nicholson 2c867b05ce perf(desktop): 60fps sash drag on real sessions — height-gate the RO pins
Driving HER real instance (real profile, real transcripts, streams live)
via CDP instead of synthetic tiles finally exposed the remaining stall.
The timeline on a real 60-frame sash drag:

  style recalc 2736ms | script 1027ms | layout 89ms
  top callsite: pin @ fallback.tsx — 927ms

Two pin-to-bottom ResizeObservers (the bounded tool window's and the
reasoning preview's) pinned on EVERY resize delivery. A sash drag changes
every message's WIDTH once per frame, so each frame ran scrollTop write ->
scrollHeight read across every tool group: a forced write-read reflow
cascade that the render counters could never see (zero React involvement).

Both pins are now height-gated off the RO entry (reflow-free): only
content GROWTH pins. Width-only deliveries return immediately.

Measured on the live app, same drag, before -> after:
  fps      11.5 -> 59-60
  p95      101ms -> 18ms
  slow>33  60/60 -> 1/60

Also in this batch (each was verified live before the next was attempted):
- thread/list: split messageSignature into STRUCTURAL (ids/roles — keys
  boundaries + row identity) and WEIGHT (part counts — budget only), and
  memoize groups + row JSX. A streamed part-append re-rendered every
  turn's boundary via its resetKey prop; explain() measured 540-865
  wasted Block renders per drag/stream sample, now {}.
- message-render-boundary: document the structural-only resetKey contract.
- tool/fallback: memoize ToolFallback's part object + ToolEntry/ToolTitle/
  ToolGlyph (151 renders each, 100% wasted, on real transcripts).
- use-message-stream: ADAPTIVE flush floor — next flush waits 3x the
  measured cost of the last one (33ms floor, 250ms cap), so multi-stream
  load degrades text update rate instead of input latency.
- tree-split: preview sash drags with inline flex on the two seam
  wrappers, committing the store ONCE on release (fixed-zone sides get
  flexBasis only, so a hidden sidebar can't leave a phantom gap).
- debug/: perf-live LoAF long-frame attribution, explain() cascade walker
  with changed-hook indices, diag-real-loop/key-latency/switch-trace
  probes that drive the real app over CDP.

Typing during 2 live streams: keystroke->paint p50 3.3ms, p95 18.4ms,
zero frames over 33ms. Session switch p50 ~35ms settled; the remaining
~1.3s outlier tail is streaming-session switches (React work-loop, not
style/layout) — next target.
