The R1 grace after a subscriber idle timeout only continued while herdr
reported `working` or the pane showed a busy token, and gave up the moment
that evidence vanished. Two live jobs in the v4.4.2 review loop were closed
as deadline_timeout that way: a grok review whose heartbeat gap was 147 s,
and the creator running the full suite in a background shell (idle to herdr,
no busy token) while publishing progress every 45 s. Both later published
`completed`, which the terminal record refused.
- `_recent_disk_heartbeat`: publish_event appends every event to the job's
events.log before the wire publish, so a heartbeat the subscriber never saw
is still on disk; treat one at most IDLE_TIMEOUT old as liveness
- R1 loop: any evidence (herdr working, pane busy token, disk heartbeat)
opens a new IDLE_TIMEOUT window; a job with no evidence for a whole window
is closed as before, still inside the wall clock
- test: a human-agent job whose subscriber idles out stays open across five
disk heartbeats and picks up the out-of-band completion (rc 0)
- VERSIONS.md v4.4.2 item 6 and test count updated
