docs: pin JSON normalization at the dispatch bridge (review finding)

The seam's structured-clone boundary admits values JSON does not (BigInt,
Map, circulars), while tool/code-dispatch events must be JSON-appendable —
left unhandled, a sub-call could execute and then fail at logging time.
The bridge now JSON-normalizes binding arguments BEFORE dispatch (a value
that does not survive rejects that one call), so the dispatched form and
the logged form are the same JSON value by construction.

 Under `'code'` and `'both'` the registry registers `run_code` in itself as an ordinary tool — one required parameter `{ code: string }` — so the unchanged loop dispatches it through the normal pipeline and `tools/pre-execute` / `tools/post-execute` gate it like any other call (a permission plugin can inspect the program text before it runs).

For every registered tool except `run_code`, the binding is an async function that (a) checks the run signal before and after (throwing stops the program — necessary because `ctx.tools.execute()` converts errors to `isError` data), (b) awaits its turn on the **per-run serialization queue** (below), (c) calls `this.execute({ callId, name, arguments, agent: exec.agent, signal: runSignal })` with a deterministic sub-id `` CallId(`${exec.callId}:code:${n}`) `` — the run signal, not the bare outer one, so a budget expiry aborts an in-flight sub-tool (`bash-local` kills on its spec signal) instead of orphaning it, (d) appends a `tool/code-dispatch` session event, and (e) maps the result: success → the text-block contents joined as a `string` (non-text blocks become placeholders, an MVP limitation), `isError` → **the binding rejects** with an `Error` carrying the result text. Rejection is the deliberate model-facing contract — real code signals failure by throwing, `try/catch` and `Promise.all` short-circuiting behave as every model has seen them behave — where the old draft's `{ output, isError }` envelope made error handling a bespoke convention.

 2. **Runs the program**: `ctx.codeRuntime.run({ program: args.code, bindings: [{ global: 'tools', functions }], signal: exec.signal })`.
 3. **Surfaces the outcome — after reaching quiescence.** When `ctx.codeRuntime.run()` resolves, the bridge fires the run-scoped abort (cancelling any in-flight sub-dispatch and abandoning queued-unstarted ones), then **awaits the dispatch queue's drain before returning**, per the dispose-to-quiescence rule in [defensive patterns](../../../defensive-patterns.md): an aborted in-flight sub-call still settles and logs its `isError` `tool/code-dispatch` event *inside* the open turn, and nothing can append after `run_code` returns. A successful run then returns one text block — the captured console/stdout output followed by the rendered return value (if any) — plus a `meta` payload (capped logs, dispatch count) for presentation. A run with `result.error` throws a `CodeRunFailedError extends HarnessError` (`code: 'CODE_RUN_FAILED'`, message = the error kind and text plus captured logs so the model can self-correct); the registry's existing catch turns it into a structured `isError` result.

 ### Observability: `tool/code-dispatch`
 
-Each sub-dispatch appends one session event, declared by `dsh-tools` via `SessionEventMap` declaration merging (the map is merge-extensible for exactly this; `todo/write` is the log-only precedent): `tool/code-dispatch` with `{ parentCallId, subCallId, name, arguments, isError, resultSummary }`. It is log-only — `deriveEventMessage()` ignores unknown event types by design, so sub-calls never re-enter model context — but persistence and UIs get every call. As a log event it carries JSDoc prose but **no `@mode` tag** (that vocabulary belongs to cordis bus events; the persistence-catalog generator hard-errors on one) and lands in the regenerated `docs/persistence-catalog.md`; appends happen inside `run_code`'s execution, so the turn-enclosure invariant is satisfied by construction. A `run_code` execution arriving without `exec.agent` (the loop always supplies it; direct programmatic calls may not) still runs and simply skips event logging, exactly as the `ToolExecution` contract allows.

 - `Promise.all` over three bindings produces non-overlapping `ctx.tools.execute()` intervals (probe-tool assertion); aborting mid-program stops the worker and dispatches nothing further; a budget expiry during a slow sub-dispatch aborts that dispatch (the probe tool observes its signal fire), `run_code` returns only after the queue drains, and no `tool/code-dispatch` event lands after `run_code`'s own `tool/result` in the log.
 - Worker runtime: a hot `for(;;){}` run ends at the `computeMs` busy-time budget with `error.kind: 'timeout'` — including when the program fired an un-awaited binding call first (the pending-RPC decoy); a program idling on a slow binding does not consume `computeMs` and is bounded only by `maxWallMs`; OOM under `resourceLimits` yields `kind: 'worker-exit'` with the host process healthy; `process.env` inside a program is empty; non-erasable syntax yields `kind: 'exception'` without a worker spawn; disposal awaits worker exit.
 - Misconfiguration is loud before any model request: non-native mode with no `ctx.codeRuntime`, a runtime whose `language ≠ 'typescript'`, and `toolOrder` naming a non-contributed tool all reject the assembly with actionable messages.
