Two live bugs from the modal-realism stress runs:
1. Multi-select ask: picking the custom 'Other…' row cleared every
already-picked option, and picking any option cleared a typed custom
answer — single-select displacement logic applied to both modes. The
dock's selection is now a pure state machine in question-core
(toggleOption/toggleOther over DockSelection, unit-tested): single
displaces (unchanged), multi coexists — neither channel clears the
other; the typed text always survives.
2. ProbeDoneCard crashed on a REJECTED probe_done call: the model
stringified 'assessment' (the same double-encoding habit as the
options bug), zod rejected the call, the model retried — but the
card's input-preview fallback trusted the errored part's unvalidated
input shape and died on assessment.strands.map. The preview now reads
input only while the call is pending or streaming (guarded with
Array.isArray); an output-error part renders a quiet
malformed-and-retried note instead of the garbage.
Pinned: question-core.test.ts (3 dock-selection machine cases),
render-cards.test.tsx (4 probe-done card cases incl. the exact live
stringified shape, plus the multi-select ask markup pin).
Gates: tsc, lint, build, 315/315.
