dfa8bdaa53 MUL-8070: feat(cursor): support live-run steering via Cursor hooks (#9322)
* MUL-8070: feat(cursor): support live-run steering via Cursor hooks

Cursor's headless --print mode has no mid-turn input channel, but its
postToolUse/postToolUseFailure hooks can return additional_context that
reaches the model in the same turn. A steerable Cursor run now writes a
managed .cursor/hooks.json whose command is the multica binary in a hidden
relay mode; the relay forwards the hook event to a token-protected loopback
endpoint owned by the run, which hands back pending guidance tagged with a
per-run nonce. The prompt declares that tag so the model treats the context
as genuine user guidance instead of a prompt injection.

Steering is offered only for daemon-managed workdirs on Unix with cursor-agent
2026.10.14+, and the server allowlists cursor for capability negotiation,
supplement creation and composer binding.

* MUL-8070: fix(cursor): confirm steering only on Cursor's receipt and gate on installable hooks

- Count hook-delivered guidance as delivered only when the tool call's
  completed stream event echoes it in hookAdditionalContexts. Guidance
  Cursor dropped for the same call is retried at the next tool boundary;
  guidance without a receipt fails when the turn ends.
- Offer steering only when the workdir can carry the managed hooks.json,
  and fail supplements immediately if installation still fails after
  negotiation.
