That helper now handles finding the target message, checking for stale or unseen targets, handling poll-tool-result targets, and checking delivered poll events within range, returning either a refusal or a description of what to cut. Other nearby code for re-homing the working directory over MCP and for handling messages\/poll events was renamed but not otherwise changed.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis further consolidates rewind's target-finding logic into a single, more maintainable helper, continuing earlier work to share this logic rather than adding new capability for users.\n\n- Area: Remote Control\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 0\/5"}
