fix(queen): bees keep their context and survive a release

[dmitrii-f-t27]

Why

• Compaction aborted. Measured on the runners on 2026-10-03: of 245 context compactions in fifty minutes, 194 returned an empty summary.
  • 158 of them ended 59–64 s after they began, which is the fixed 60 s abort.
  • The slow bee models (z-ai/glm-5.3 under load, the free glm-4.5-flash) cannot summarize 7–30k tokens in a minute.
  • When that happens the bee falls back to the sliding window and loses the start of its own work.
• Releases killed bees. The server exits about 2 s after SIGTERM, so every release killed every bee in flight.

What

• TRIOS_COMPACTION_SUMMARIZER_MODELS, e.g. openai-compatible=nvidia/nemotron-3-super-120b-a12b.
  • A fast model on the bee's own key writes the summary first.
  • The bee's own model is still tried if it fails, so a summary can only be gained, never lost.
• TRIOS_COMPACTION_SUMMARIZATION_TIMEOUT_MS: 10 s..10 min. The default stays 60 s.
• TRIOS_BEE_RUNNER_DRAIN_SECONDS: 0..3600. The default 0 keeps the old behaviour.
  • On SIGTERM the runner takes no new orders and waits for its bees.
  • At the deadline it salvages and stores the branch of every bee still running.
• docker-entrypoint.sh now waits for a draining server. A trapped TERM used to end wait at once and take the container down.

Tests

• bun test tests/api/queen-*.test.ts tests/agent: 1007 pass, 0 fail.
• New tests cover summarizer first, fallback to the bee model, both failing, env parsing, and drain wait / deadline salvage / per-bee failure isolation.
• The entrypoint change was checked with a shell harness: the wrapper outlives a server that drains for 3 s.
