### Describe the feature or problem you'd like to solve
Project-session coordination APIs do not expose whether a child session is actively processing or still has queued user messages. A parent can receive a completion handoff and see static branch/diff metadata from `get_session`, yet remain unable to prove the child is drained before merging its pull request.
This creates a cross-session merge race: if the parent previously sent a follow-up that is still queued, the child can wake after the parent merges, process that message, and push a trailing commit to the already-merged branch.
### Proposed solution
Expose explicit processing and queue state in `get_session` and `list_sessions_and_chats`, for example:
- `is_processing: boolean`
- `queued_messages_count: number`
- the current/last processed message identifier or a monotonic drain generation
Provide a native way for a coordinator to establish a merge barrier: wait until the child reports no active turn and no queued messages, then send a final stop/ready request and verify its acknowledgment belongs to the latest queue generation.
This would make project-session orchestration safe without relying only on conversational conventions or guessing from `updated_at`.
### Example prompts or workflows
1. A parent asks a child to implement a PR, sends two review fixes, then checks `is_processing == false` and `queued_messages_count == 0` before merging.
2. A parent sends “Make no further changes; reply READY_FOR_MERGE,” then verifies the reply drained the latest queue generation before running `gh pr merge`.
3. An orchestration dashboard shows which child sessions are idle, actively processing, or waiting on queued input.
4. A parent avoids archiving a child that still has pending messages even though its latest task handoff is complete.
### Additional context
Observed workflow: a child reported a validated PR head; the parent independently reviewed and merged it. A previously queued follow-up then woke the child, which produced and pushed a test-only commit after merge. The child detected the race and stopped, but the parent had no API field that could have prevented it.

Hướng dẫn đóng góp
Hướng nghiên cứu
Bắt đầu bằng cách lần theo các đường dẫn API get_session và list_sessions_and_chats, sau đó đọc các báo cáo liên quan về hàng đợi và trạng thái session được liên kết trong issue. Xác định ngữ nghĩa về trạng thái và generation cần thiết để một coordinator xác minh rằng một child không có công việc đang hoạt động hoặc đang nằm trong hàng đợi trước khi merge, đồng thời ghi lại acknowledgment nào khiến barrier hoàn tất.
