Subject: [PATCH] feat: add parent-only disclaimer and report link to session
 cost
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The Visible Context panel's Session Cost only reflects the parent
session. Add "(parent only · view full cost)" label that links to
the Session Report where parent + subagent costs are shown.
