Active steering writes the steer into the same run as the response it interrupts, and a fork point was always a whole run. So a response a steer cut off never got a Fork button, and forking its run would have carried the steer and the reply to it into the fork. A fork can now end at one assistant response. `thread.fork` takes a `turn_item` source point (run plus item). The server checks that the item is a finished assistant message of that run and records the cut on the transfer and as `forkedFrom.throughTurnItemId`. The inherited timeline, the windowed history read, search and the shell item count all stop at that item. Provider context follows the cut. Claude forks natively: an assistant item's native id is the SDK message uuid, which `forkSession` accepts as an inclusive `upToMessageId`. A new optional `canForkFromItem` capability says so. Codex `thread/fork` only cuts at turn ends, so it and every provider without the capability get the portable handoff cut at the item, never the run end. Web and mobile show the response meta row and Fork on the last assistant message before each steer as well as the run's last one. Forks from a mid-run response send the item point; run-end forks still send the run point. A reply the user stopped mid-stream (interrupted) can be forked too, matching the server's existing run status rule. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

ApprovabilityVerdict: Not approved Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This PR adds a new user-facing way to fork conversations from intermediate or interrupted responses, requiring coordinated changes to persisted history, orchestration policy, provider-native forks, and web/mobile clients. The cross-layer runtime impact and new provider-specific behavior warrant human review. You can add or adjust custom eligibility rules. Learn more. |

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The new item-level fork tests use fixtures where all items share the same ordinal, so they will likely fail. They also would not reliably guard the cut-off behavior. Give the fixture items distinct, increasing ordinals before merging. Pre-merge checks |

A response counted as mid-run only when a later assistant message of its run followed. A run of response, steer and then only tool calls (or a stop) left the response as the run's last assistant message, so Fork sent the run point and the fork kept the steer. Web and mobile now mark a response mid-run when any later user message of the same run follows it. A turn_item point at the run's last response cut nothing but still recorded a cut. For Claude that could pass a result message uuid, which is no transcript cursor, as upToMessageId. The server now forks such a point exactly like its run: no cut on forkedFrom or the transfer, and native forks wherever the provider forks at turn ends.

A user asked why they can't fork from a response that a steer cut off. People who steer often have almost nothing they can fork from.
Fork worked per run. Active steering (Claude, Codex, OpenCode, Pi, Muse) writes the steer into the same run, and so does interrupt-and-restart steering. The Fork button only showed on a run's last response, so a response followed by a steer never got one. Showing the button there wouldn't have been enough either: the fork would have copied the steer and everything after it.
