The lazy-runtime contract (#353) says a non-terminal failure waits for
the next explicit intent and that there are no background retries. But
_renderBody calls ensure() on every repaint while a surface waits for
the editor or onboarding runtime, and to the loader that call was
indistinguishable from an intent. Surfaces the core opens without the
runtime - the kiosk size dialog after a 3 s hold, the floor import
wizard on an empty plan, a dialog a warm remount revives - therefore
turned one failure into a loop: the loader's own state change, the
toast and its expiry, every hass tick repainted, started a new cycle
and showed a new toast every ~3.5 s. A wall tablet whose old hashed
chunks answer 404 after an integration update sat in that loop forever.
EditorRuntimeLoader.ensure takes an intent: the render calls it as
'reconcile'. A reconcile starts the first cycle a surface needs, but
after a non-terminal failure it returns false without loading until an
explicit ensure() - a tab, an opener, _requestMode, "Add space" - has
started a new cycle. Explicit calls, the terminal fingerprint failure,
ready and an in-flight cycle behave as before, for every loader
instance. The card's render lines stay line-neutral.
smoke_lazy_editor_chunk gains the three surfaces offline through their
real paths (a 3 s touch hold on a kiosk card, an empty plan pushed by
the server, General settings revived by a remount): one cycle, one
notice and an idle loader over 8 s, then the Plan tab and "Add space"
heal. On dev: 4 requests / 3 notices, 6 / 2 and 3 / 2. The loader unit
test pins reconcile versus intent; the mutant
render-reconcile-restarts-editor-runtime-cycle is guarded by the smoke.
