sl0p: --purpose flag and tab-level purpose

2026-08-12T16:44:24Z

Completes the two pieces deferred from the first workspace-hints pass. `zellij run --purpose X` / `zellij action new-pane --purpose X` tag a pane at spawn time, which is what an agent wants for panes it creates itself; the OSC wrapper still works for programs that declare their own role. Not supported with --in-place, which replaces another pane rather than being a pane of its own: clap rejects the combination rather than accepting a flag that would do nothing. `tab name="work" purpose="agent-work"` gives a whole tab a role, reported by `list-tabs --json`. It rides the tab's ROOT layout node, reusing the pane field because a tab's root is the tab container and never itself a pane -- asserted by a test for the tightest case (a tab holding exactly one pane), since a leak there would silently mislabel a pane. The interesting part is why the flag first shipped broken. There are TWO protobuf boundaries -- the plugin API and the client->server IPC contract -- and a CLI flag must cross the second one. Defaulting the field in the conversion (what "no protoc" usually forces) compiles cleanly and then silently drops the value in transit, so --purpose parsed, printed a pane id, and did nothing. Fixed by adding the field to both contracts by hand, in the .proto AND the committed generated prost, kept in lockstep so a future regeneration reproduces it: protoc is only needed to regenerate, not to build. Both boundaries now have a round-trip test, and the IPC one was confirmed to fail when the wire read is removed. Sanitising moved to Grid::set_authoritative_purpose, the single choke point every out-of-band source passes through, after the CLI path was observed delivering `bad purpose; rm -rf /` intact into list-panes --json.
