Add Buzz-native collaboration benchmarks (#6264)

## Why
Terminal-Bench can show task correctness while missing Buzz-specific
collaboration failures, such as posting a final answer outside the
user's thread. Add a small Buzz-native suite that scores relay behavior
directly.

## What
- Add Harbor tasks for direct thread replies, event-level callback
mentions to a three-word user identity, targeted reads of explicitly
named paths outside the workspace, and exact temporary-channel
membership against a seeded directory of 50 users and 10 bots
- Export sanitized post-agent relay evidence and extend solo
runtime/provisioning for deterministic verification
- Expose channel TTL in CLI search output and cover positive and
negative transcript/state fixtures

## Risk Assessment
Low to medium — this primarily adds benchmark and testbed machinery. The
CLI change is an additive `ttl_seconds` field in channel-search JSON;
relay behavior is unchanged.

## References
- Motivated by the Buzz-specific behavior observed while benchmarking
https://github.com/block/buzz/pull/6128
- The named-path regression case covers the issue being fixed by
https://github.com/block/buzz/pull/6261
- Local live Sonnet runs: `reply-to-thread`, `user-mention`, and
`create-channel-invite-users` each scored reward 1.0 with zero
exceptions
- The current branch prompt scored 3/5 on a concurrent
`read-named-path-outside-workspace` batch: one explicit
workspace-boundary refusal and one missing final response

# reply-to-thread
## What the agent does
Answers a six-month financial projection posted by the trial user
([instruction.md](instruction.md)). The arithmetic is incidental — this task
measures **where** the answer lands: in the user's thread, not as a new
top-level channel message.
> **The instruction deliberately says nothing about threading.** Threading is
> the behavior under test, and it must come from `buzz-acp`'s production base
> prompt rather than from the task prompt. Do not "fix" the instruction by
> telling the agent to reply in-thread — that would make the task measure
> instruction-following instead of product behavior.
## Environment
`python:3.12-slim-bookworm`, no extra packages: the agent never runs in this
container's shell. `BuzzOrchestraAgent` launches the real `buzz-acp` /
`buzz-agent` stack against a dedicated relay, and the agent works entirely
through Buzz. Agent timeout 300s; the manifest's `trial_budget` is the
effective clock.
## Verifier
Reads the post-agent `/logs/artifacts/buzz-evidence.json` snapshot (written by
`BuzzContainerRuntime._collect_evidence` after the agent stops, so the agent
cannot influence it). Every dimension is programmatic; `reward` is the
conjunction of all of them.
| Dimension | Type | Measures |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `evidence_complete` | programmatic | Snapshot is v1, untruncated, has one orchestrator, and resolves the task event and a candidate reply. Harness health, not agent skill — a 0 here means investigate the run |
| `expected_author` | programmatic | The scored message was published by the orchestrator |
| `same_channel` | programmatic | Reply carries the trial channel's `h` tag |
| `reply_to_thread` | programmatic | Reply carries `["e", <task event>, "", "reply"]` — the behavior under test |
| `answer_correct` | programmatic | Month-6 revenue (160,811), month-6 expenses (84,462), and cumulative profit (374,470), each ±1 and each on a line naming it |
`answer_correct` requires the label and the value on the same line so a
work-showing table with a wrong stated answer cannot pass on its intermediate
rows. `instruction.md` asks for that formatting explicitly.
## Layout
```
reply-to-thread/
├── instruction.md # Prompt posted to the agent as the trial user
├── task.toml # Metadata, timeouts, 1 CPU / 1 GiB environment
├── environment/Dockerfile # Bare python image; the relay stack is uploaded
└── tests/
├── test.sh # Runs verify.py against the evidence snapshot
└── verify.py # Deterministic scorer (see table above)
```
## Running
```bash
just benchmark \
--path benchmarks/buzz-dataset/reply-to-thread \
--attempts 1 \
--manifest benchmarks/harbor-buzz-orchestra/manifests/buzz-native-solo-luna.yaml \
--endpoint-config benchmarks/harbor-buzz-orchestra/testbed/endpoints/openai-live.json \
--n-concurrent 1
```
`harbor run -a oracle` does **not** work here, and no `solution/solve.sh` is
shipped: the Oracle agent replaces `BuzzOrchestraAgent`, so no relay trial is
provisioned and no evidence snapshot is exported. The verifier is covered
instead by positive and negative fixture tests in
`../harbor-buzz-orchestra/tests/test_reply_to_thread_verifier.py` (run from
`benchmarks/harbor-buzz-orchestra`: `uv run --extra dev pytest -q`).

Prepare a six-month financial projection using these assumptions:
- Month 0 revenue is $120,000 and expenses are $75,000.
- Revenue grows by 5% each month.
- Expenses grow by 2% each month.
- Project months 1 through 6, compounding each month from the prior month.
Reply with the month 6 revenue, month 6 expenses, and cumulative operating
profit across months 1 through 6. Round each result to the nearest dollar, and
label each figure on the same line as its value.
