These members center on a reported bug where a model-switch marker merged with an async completion appears to lose the current-turn anchor and fall back to an older human request. The two fix-titled pull requests appear to aim at preserving or anchoring the merged row that carries the current event; their actual effect is not established by the titles alone.
