agent_server: reminder body size cap + extract Remind/AskOperator handlers

 ## Reminder Tool
 
-- Handle text overflow → suggest file_path option for long messages
+- ~~Handle text overflow → suggest file_path option for long messages~~ ✓ fixed — Remind dispatch rejects `message.len() > 4096` (when no `file_path` was supplied) with an error pointing at the `file_path` escape hatch.
 - Per-agent reminder limits (burst capacity, rate limiting)
-- **File path delivery**: currently unused in scheduler delivery loop — implement file write/delivery to /state/<agent>/reminders/ or similar
+- **Expose `remind` MCP tool**: wire protocol exists (`AgentRequest::Remind`) and the broker handles it, but no `#[tool]` method on `AgentServer` actually surfaces it to claude. Until that lands, the Remind path is unreachable from agent turns.
-- **Orphan reminders**: handle partial failures (e.g. delivery succeeds but mark_reminder_sent fails) to avoid resending
+- **File path delivery**: currently unused in scheduler delivery loop — implement file write/delivery to /state/<agent>/reminders/ or similar (also needed for the overflow-check escape hatch above to actually do anything useful).
-- **Unbounded batches**: implement per-cycle delivery limit so burst of 10k reminders doesn't flood the broker in one cycle
+- ~~**Orphan reminders**~~ ✓ fixed — `Broker::deliver_reminder` wraps the inbox INSERT + reminders UPDATE in one sqlite transaction; partial failure can no longer cause duplicate delivery on the next tick.
+- ~~**Unbounded batches**~~ ✓ fixed — scheduler now calls `get_due_reminders(REMINDER_BATCH_LIMIT)` (cap = 100/tick); overflow stays due and gets picked up next cycle.
 - **Scheduler shutdown**: add graceful shutdown signal when coordinator is destroyed (currently runs forever)
-- **DB lock contention**: under high reminder volume, many concurrent mark_reminder_sent calls may serialize behind the Mutex lock — consider batch updates
+- **DB lock contention**: under high reminder volume, the broker's `Mutex<Connection>` serializes every delivery transaction. Consider batching multiple deliveries into one tx, or moving reminders onto a separate sqlite connection.

 ## Bugs
 
-- **Pending message wake-up**: when a message is pending and an agent turn ends without recv(), session doesn't immediately wake up again. Requires another message to trigger wake-up. (inbox/recv logic issue)
+- ~~**Pending message wake-up**~~ ✓ fixed (e423d57) — subscribe-before-check race in `broker.recv_blocking` meant a send landing between the initial `recv()` and `subscribe()` was missed; agent then sat on the 180s long-poll until another, unrelated message woke it. Now subscribe first.
