Chat said done is not recovered. I wait for a file on disk, a job log that names why the run stopped, and one fail-once restart from the last good commit.

A practical way to decide whether a resumed coding-agent run is safe to continue: inspect local evidence, enforce command gates, review the diff, preserve test logs, and make rollback cheap.
