…e webview - Introduced new message types for cline messages in ExtensionMessage interface. - Added fields for task ID, cline messages, and snapshot management in ExtensionMessage. - Updated WebviewMessage to handle resync requests and sequence tracking. - Replaced unbounded full-transcript transport with a chunked snapshot protocol. - Ensured task focus synchronization and invalidation of old transcript generations. - Implemented strict validation for message sequences and snapshot integrity. - Added stress acceptance tests to validate performance under high message loads.
- Introduced `syncFocusedTaskToWebview` method to streamline UI updates. - Replaced `postStateToWebview` calls with `syncFocusedTaskToWebview` for better state management. - Added handling for `requestClineMessagesResync` message type to manage task-specific message synchronization. - Implemented snapshot handling for `clineMessages` to ensure consistent state updates during message appends and updates. - Updated tests to reflect changes in state management and message handling. - Refactored utility functions for better clarity and functionality in testing.

Closes: # 630
Description
This PR completes the incremental transcript-delivery work proposed in #630 and builds on the state-push throttling from #1078.
Throttling reduced how often large task state was sent, but every update and hydration could still serialize and transfer the complete transcript. For long-running tasks, that payload remains large enough to exhaust the webview renderer and produce a gray screen.
The implementation introduces a dedicated, task-scoped transcript transport:
clineMessagesarray.The steady-state payload is now O(1) per append/update rather than O(N) in transcript length. Full recovery remains available, but it is transferred in bounded chunks and applied only after the complete snapshot has been validated.
This aligns with Zoo Code's Reliability First roadmap goal by keeping long-running chats responsive and making transcript synchronization deterministic and self-healing across webview reloads and task switches.

Test Procedure
Run the focused extension-host regression suites:
pnpm --dir src exec vitest run \ __tests__/single-open-invariant.spec.ts \ core/task/__tests__/Task.persistence.spec.ts \ core/task/__tests__/Task.spec.ts \ core/webview/__tests__/ClineProvider.spec.ts \ core/webview/__tests__/webviewMessageHandler.spec.tsResult: 5 test files passed, 356 tests passed.
Run the focused webview regression suites:
pnpm --dir webview-ui exec vitest run \ src/context/__tests__/ExtensionStateContext.spec.tsx \ src/components/chat/__tests__/ChatView.clear-approval-buttons.spec.tsx \ src/components/chat/__tests__/ChatView.notification-sound.spec.tsx \ src/components/chat/__tests__/ChatView.scroll-debug-repro.spec.tsx \ src/components/chat/__tests__/ChatView.spec.tsxResult: 5 test files passed, 69 tests passed.
Run package type checks:
Result: Both type checks passed.
Run ESLint with suppression pruning for every changed extension-host and webview source/test file:
Result: All changed source and test files passed with no suppression-count increase.
