/**
* E2E coverage for the cross-task message attribution feature.
*
* When an agent calls `message_task_kandev` to message another task, the
* receiving task must:
* - Render a clickable "from {sender title}" badge above the user message bubble.
* - Show only the original prompt body in the bubble (the <kandev-system>
* attribution block is hidden by API stripping).
* - Persist the sender_task_id / sender_task_title / sender_session_id
* metadata on the recorded user message.
*
* The mock-agent's `e2e:mcp:kandev:message_task_kandev(...)` script directive
* drives the MCP call. The MCP server (running inside the sender's agentctl)
* automatically injects sender_task_id and sender_session_id from its server
* struct fields, so tests don't need to pass those — the wire-level
* sender_task_id is whatever task the calling agent is running in.
