docs(orchestration-v2): task_cancel describes queued-only tasks and when it rejects - #34517
Corrects the task_cancel contract in docs/orchestration-v2/orchestrator-mcp-server.md (#26119): cancelling also cancels the task's own queued turn, even one Stop already held, so a task that is only queued can be cancelled; other queued turns in the child stay held for Resume; a nonterminal task is rejected only when it has no interruptible run, no queued turn of its own, and nothing it still waits on; and a follow-up that lost its child run but still shows running on the parent is cancelled there and reported as cancelled. Merged origin/main and resolved the one conflict by keeping main's newer wording for the cancellation order (delegated tasks first, then the child) and result status (completed becomes interrupted, failed stays failed). Dropped the PR's claim that Stop cancels buffered provider wakes: Orchestrator.ts holds those wakes, it does not cancel them. Checked against OrchestratorMcpService.cancelTask. The diff is one paragraph, docs only. Pushed to the fallback branch because GitHub refused the push to fix/issue-26119.
Not executed. In T3 Code, open the repository documentation file docs/orchestration-v2/orchestrator-mcp-server.md in the file viewer and select rendered Markdown. Read task_cancel on main, then compare the same section at the PR head: main omits queued-only cancellation and task-specific queue removal, while the PR explicitly describes both. This is a documentation difference; cancellation behavior in the app is unchanged.

The task_cancel section said a nonterminal task with no interruptible run
is rejected. cancelTask also accepts a task that is waiting on its
delegates or has a queued turn of its own, and cancels that queued turn
even when Stop already held it, while other queued turns stay held.

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Clarifies how task_cancel handles queued tasks, rejection conditions, and orphaned follow-ups. The change is documentation-only and does not alter runtime behavior or product defaults.
You can add or adjust custom eligibility rules. Learn more.
The task_cancel documentation now describes when cancellation removes a task’s queued turn, when a nonterminal task is rejected, and how cancellation reports a follow-up whose child run is gone.
The description distinguishes cancellation of the task’s own queued turn, including a turn held by Stop, from other queued turns that remain held. It also clarifies rejection conditions and the reported status for a follow-up whose child run is gone.
This docs-only change has two small wording inaccuracies in the task_cancel description. They could mislead readers about Resume behavior and about when a cancel is rejected, but nothing in the app changes. Merging after a quick wording fix is low risk.

Explanation
The change addresses #26119 in docs/orchestration-v2/orchestrator-mcp-server.md. It documents cancellation of the task's own queued turn, including a turn already held by Stop. It states that other queued turns remain held for Resume. It also states the rejection condition when no interruptible run, own queued turn, or remaining wait exists. The change is documentation-only, which matches the issue scope.

Explanation
The description covers the problem, documentation changes, scope, verification evidence, test results, limitations, and linked issue. It also explains that runtime behavior was not changed and identifies the unverified tool-description comparison. The scope section does not include an explicit maintainer approval comment, but the description is otherwise sufficiently complete for this documentation-only change.

- Line 335: Update the `thread.stop` documentation to state that it cancels
buffered provider notifications already queued when Stop runs, including held
notifications, and that Resume cannot restore them. Preserve the existing
explanation of how Stop handles the task’s queued turn and other queued turns.
- Line 337: Update the task_cancel documentation to describe a nonterminal
task’s waiting state without requiring a finished turn. Keep the existing
conditions about interruptible runs and queued turns, and state that rejection
depends on whether the task is waiting on background work or delegated tasks.
