- PR #139315: fix(bot-mode): dial the DM authority from threads with a running loop
- PR #139330: fix(tools): dial the Bot DM authority from a loop-hosting thread and classify pre-dial deaths

These members appear to concern Bot Mode DM delivery, where authority_delivery() calling asyncio.run() from a sync tool handler is described as causing the send to die before dialing and be classified as ambiguous. Two members are fixes (one also mentions classifying pre-dial deaths) and one is a bug report; the details of the outcomes are not established here.
