From bccf0abe2a11e66d9adb380456442576ea744b1e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Meta Vens Date: Mon, 2 Nov 2026 11:42:03 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] turn-core-instruction fixes: a failed turn keeps its intent, a flush alone and a retell open with the instruction, a rationale cannot start a line Step::Failed carries the decoded reply's intent into the closing rationale. The retell note is rendered inside the line after the instruction. A flush written alone opens with the instruction; flush_ask owns the flush text. recent_runs indents after every line break a reader splits on, not only newline.
