The first snapshot control also stalled the unrelated app-stat stream. Model its valid empty reply and the proper stream field shapes in the two-connection poller fixture without weakening timeout, session, inventory or recovery assertions. Clarify that initial transport negotiation is bounded separately from each serialized RPC operation; runtime timeout policy is unchanged.
Contract-Neutral: Correct synthetic fixture responses and clarify the existing budget description; no runtime or wire behaviour changes.
