feat(agent): surface all retry/fallback/compression lifecycle events#3153
Conversation
Add _emit_status() helper that sends lifecycle notifications to both CLI (via _vprint force=True) and gateway (via status_callback). No retry, fallback, or compression path is silent anymore. Pathways surfaced: - General retry backoff: was logger-only, now shows countdown - Provider fallback: changed raw print() to _emit_status for gateway - Rate limit eager fallback: new notification before switching - Empty/malformed response fallback: new notification - Client error fallback: new notification with HTTP status - Max retries fallback: new notification before attempting - Max retries giving up: upgraded from _vprint to _emit_status - Compression retry (413 + context overflow): upgraded to _emit_status - Compression success + retry: upgraded to _emit_status (2 instances)

Summary
No retry, fallback, or compression path is silent anymore. Users see what's happening at every stage.
Adds
_emit_status()helper that sends lifecycle notifications to both CLI (_vprint force=True) and gateway (status_callback("lifecycle", ...)). Never raises — exceptions are swallowed so it can't interrupt retry logic.Pathways surfaced
