One issue reports that no end-of-turn plugin hook (on_session_end) fires when a gateway turn fails after provider retries are exhausted. Two pull requests, titled around finalizing terminal provider failures and exhausted API retry turns in the agent and gateway, appear to address the same area, though their actual effect is not established by the titles.
