/**
* @fileoverview Respawn Controller for autonomous Claude Code session cycling.
*
* Manages automatic respawning of Claude Code sessions. When Claude finishes
* working (detected by completion message + output silence), it cycles through
* update → clear → init steps to keep the session productive.
*
* ## State Machine
*
* ```
* WATCHING → CONFIRMING_IDLE → SENDING_UPDATE → WAITING_UPDATE → SENDING_CLEAR → WAITING_CLEAR
* ↑ │ │
* │ │ (new output) ▼
* │ └─────────────► SENDING_INIT → WAITING_INIT → MONITORING_INIT ────────┘
* │ │
* │ ▼ (if no work triggered)
* └──────────────────────── SENDING_KICKSTART → WAITING_KICKSTART ──┘
* ```
*
* ## Idle Detection (multi-layer)
* - Layer 0: Stop hook / idle_prompt notification (definitive)
* - Layer 1: Completion message pattern "for Xm Xs"
* - Layer 2: AI idle check via `AiIdleChecker` (optional)
* - Layer 3: No-output timeout fallback
*
* Key exports:
* - `RespawnController` class — state machine, extends EventEmitter
* - `RespawnConfig` interface — all configuration options
* - `RespawnState` type — union of all state machine states
* - `DetectionStatus`, `ActiveTimerInfo`, `RespawnEvents` — status/event types
*
* Key methods: `start()`, `stop()`, `getStatus()`, `getConfig()`,
* `getDetectionStatus()`, `getActiveTimers()`, `getAggregateMetrics()`,
* `getTimingHistory()`, `getHealthScore()`
*
* @dependencies session (PTY output), ai-idle-checker, ai-plan-checker,
* respawn-patterns, respawn-adaptive-timing, respawn-metrics, respawn-health,
* team-watcher (blocks respawn if teammates active)
* @consumedby web/server (respawn routes, SSE), ralph-loop
* @emits respawn:stateChanged, respawn:started, respawn:stopped, respawn:cycleStarted,
* respawn:cycleCompleted, respawn:detectionUpdate, respawn:aiCheck*, respawn:log
*
* @module respawn-controller

/**
* RespawnController - Automatic session cycling for continuous Claude work.
*
* Monitors a Claude Code session for idle state and automatically cycles
* through update → clear → init steps to keep the session productive.
*
* ## How It Works
*
* 1. **Idle Detection**: Watches for completion message ("for Xm Xs" pattern)
* 2. **Confirmation**: Waits for output silence (no new tokens for 5s)
* 3. **Update**: Sends configured prompt (e.g., "update all docs")
* 4. **Clear**: Sends `/clear` to reset context (optional)
* 5. **Init**: Sends `/init` to re-initialize with CLAUDE.md (optional)
* 6. **Kickstart**: If /init doesn't trigger work, sends fallback prompt (optional)
* 7. **Repeat**: Returns to watching state for next cycle
*
* ## Idle Detection (Updated for Claude Code 2024+)
*
* Primary: Completion message with time duration (e.g., "✻ Worked for 2m 46s")
* The pattern "for Xm Xs" indicates Claude finished work and reports duration.
*
* Confirmation: After seeing completion message, waits for output silence.
* If no new output for `completionConfirmMs` (default 10s), confirms idle.
*
* Fallback: If no output at all for `noOutputTimeoutMs` (default 30s), assumes idle.
*
* Working indicators: Thinking, Writing, spinner characters, etc. reset detection.
*
* ## Events
*
* - `stateChanged`: State machine transition
* - `respawnCycleStarted`: New cycle began
* - `respawnCycleCompleted`: Cycle finished
* - `stepSent`: Command sent to session
* - `stepCompleted`: Step finished
* - `log`: Debug messages
*
* @extends EventEmitter
* @example
* ```typescript
* const respawn = new RespawnController(session, {
* updatePrompt: 'continue working on the task',
* completionConfirmMs: 10000, // Wait 10s after completion message
* });
*
* respawn.on('respawnCycleCompleted', (cycle) => {
* console.log(`Completed cycle ${cycle}`);
* });
*
* respawn.start();
* ```
