//! The `coder.*` JSON-RPC surface — session registry, orchestration, fanout.
//!
//! Transport-thin: `handle_coder_*` functions parse params and delegate to
//! orchestration functions that are generation-injectable (the same seam as
//! the loops), so the full start→confirm→run→approve flow is testable with a
//! scripted model and a temp git repo.
//!
//! ## Event fanout
//!
//! Each session owns an [`EventSink`] whose emitter feeds an unbounded
//! channel; one drain task per session appends to the replay buffer and
//! forwards `coder.event` notification frames to every subscribed WS channel.
//! `coder.subscribe` replays from a `seq` cursor while holding the buffer
//! lock, then registers — same no-gap/no-dup discipline as `runs.subscribe`.
//!
//! ## Board watch fanout
//!
//! `coder.subscribe` is per-session: a client has to know a session exists
//! before it can watch it, which is exactly what a board cannot assume — runs
//! start from `car code`, CarHost and milo too. `coder.watch` is the
//! complementary registration: one per connection, covering every session,
//! answered with the current list AND registered under the same lock so no
//! session can slip through the gap between snapshot and subscribe. Changes
//! arrive as `coder.session_changed`, emitted from the event path (never a
//! poller) so an attention transition reaches an open board immediately.
//!
//! Lock order: `events` buffer → `coder_subscribers` → `coder_watchers`; never
//! the reverse.
