📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Use a typed ExtensionState fixture instead of double assertions.
The as unknown as ExtensionState casts allow incomplete state objects to bypass the contract. A future required field could be missing while this regression test still passes. Create or reuse a complete typed fixture and override only taskHistory and clineMessages. If a cast is unavoidable, document the reason in a nearby comment.
As per coding guidelines, use double assertions only as a last resort and explain them with a nearby comment.

What changed
Why this change was made
An older child snapshot could complete late, receive the highest sequence number, and replace an already-rendered child conversation with the Home screen. TLA+, Alloy, and SPIN independently identified this ordering, and a focused test reproduced it against the production methods.
Impact
Active child conversations no longer regress to Home when overlapping state snapshots finish out of order. Existing webview stale-state filtering can now correctly reject delayed snapshots.
