When state.db has many non-cron sessions, the normal sidebar query caps
at CLI_VISIBLE_SESSION_LIMIT (20) rows ordered by latest activity. Older
cron runs get squeezed out before _include_project_hidden_background_sidebar_sessions
can rescue them, making them invisible under their project chip.
Add a second-pass cron-only query with a higher cap (CRON_PROJECT_CHIP_LIMIT=200)
that merges into the CLI session list. The project-chip rescue layer then
marks them default_hidden so they stay addressable without polluting the
default sidebar window.
Verification: regression test seeds 25+ newer non-cron sessions and asserts
the older messageful cron session still appears with project_id set.
The gateway SSE handler (`_handle_gateway_sse_stream`) and session-events
SSE handler (`_handle_session_events_stream`) both set
`Connection: close` on the response. On long-lived SSE streams, browsers
(Chrome, Firefox, Safari) interpret that header as 'this is a one-shot
response, the EventSource lifecycle is over the moment the body ends'
and trigger an immediate reconnect when the server-side worker rotates.
The result, with EventSource's auto-reconnect on top, is a tight loop of
connect -> sessions_changed snapshot -> reconnect every ~1s that pegs
the worker, thrashes the session list, and prevents the in-app session
list from ever settling.
Removing the header lets the python BaseHTTPServer close the socket
naturally after the stream ends, which is what EventSource expects.

Per Opus advisor on stage-batch36: skip role='user' messages in
_session_media_token_allows_image_path so a user-injected MEDIA: token
cannot mint an allow-list entry for the user's own request. Preserves
the original use case (assistant/tool emitted artifacts outside the
active workspace) while making the implicit threat model explicit.
Defense-in-depth — the single-user WebUI scope means same-origin user
input already had the same effective access, but multi-user / shared
WebUI deployments would benefit from the restriction.
