Expose a read-only cursor probe plus one-page group and private history methods for login backfill. Validate targets, ranges, response ordering, and page sizes before returning decoded events.
Serialize all history traffic through a process-wide gate. Automatic requests keep a two-second gap, accept at most 100 targets per kind and 20 sequence slots per session, and honor account cancellation before any queued network operation starts.
Keep the probe side-effect free by omitting read markers, and add focused tests for packet budgets, invalid responses, throttling, cancellation, and continued gate usability after failures. Refs #280.
