• fix(macos): listen for errors on the helper's output pipes too
• fix(macos): recover the take a dead writer or a killed helper left on disk
• fix(macos): keep a recovered take when the disk is still full, and say what failed
• fix(wgc): read the config argument as UTF-16 so non-ASCII output paths resolve
• fix(timeline): coalesce scrub state updates per frame
• test(timeline): measure per-frame scrub commits against one update's cost
