This commit simplifies worker startup coordination and addresses Windows-specific issues:
**Lock Removal**:
- Removed entire file-based locking system (~100 lines)
- Replaced with health-check-first approach
- Port binding provides natural mutual exclusion - multiple spawns fail cleanly
**Windows Stability**:
- Removed all AbortSignal.timeout() calls to reduce Bun libuv assertion errors
- Added 500ms shutdown delays on Windows to prevent zombie ports
- Worker service has its own timeouts, so client-side timeouts are redundant
**Package.json Updates**:
- Updated worker scripts to use worker-service.cjs directly
- Removed references to deleted worker-cli.js and worker-wrapper.cjs
**Key Changes**:
- src/services/worker-service.ts: Lock removal, shutdown delays, simplified start logic
- src/hooks/*.ts: Removed AbortSignal.timeout from all HTTP requests
- src/shared/worker-utils.ts: Removed AbortSignal.timeout from health checks
- package.json: Updated worker:* scripts
Resolves startup hangs, reduces assertion errors, and prevents zombie port issues.

Introducing Modes – modes are used for context-specific observation capture and processing, supporting different domains (coding, email investigation, etc.) and 30+ languages. Modes work through inheritance-based JSON configurations that customize observation types, prompts, and SDK behavior, enabling multilingual memory with locale-specific output while maintaining consistent structure.

* refactor: remove error swallowing from SQLite services (Phase 3)
Apply "fail fast" error handling strategy to database layer.
SessionStore.ts migrations:
- ensureWorkerPortColumn(): Remove outer try/catch, let it throw

Philosophy: Migration errors that are swallowed mean we think the
database is fine when it's not. Keep only inner transaction rollback
try/catch blocks.

* fix: Move summary prompts to mode files for multilingual support
Summary prompts were hardcoded in English in prompts.ts, breaking
multilingual support. Now properly mode-based:
- Added summary_instruction, summary_context_label,
summary_format_instruction, summary_footer to code.json
- Updated buildSummaryPrompt() to use mode fields instead of hardcoded text
- Added summary_footer with language instructions to all 10 language modes
- Language modes keep English prompts + language requirement footer
This fixes the gaslighting where we claimed full multilingual support
but summaries were still generated in English.
