What
A rename through remote control now normalizes the title the same way as elsewhere and pushes the name onward instead of only writing it locally.
Details
- The title goes through the shared title normalizer rather than a bare trim.
- Unless the session is in the excluded mode, an async name propagation is queued with source "user".
- Propagation failures are logged and do not block the rename.
- Transcript append behaviour is unchanged.
Evidence
onRenameSession: name propagation failed
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
