fix(lint): restore 0 Biome diagnostics and fix web-mode-onboarding test timeout

- Remove/prefix unused imports and variables across 11 src/ files to clear
  74 diagnostics introduced by 37 subsequent commits since run #3
- Fix pre-existing timeout in web-mode-onboarding integration test:
  - Add timeoutMs: 120_000 to launchPackagedWebHost call (was unbounded)
  - Raise AbortSignal.timeout on simple fetches 10s → 30s (under parallel load)
  - Raise overall test timeout 180s → 420s (budget: 120+60+30+30+120+30=390s)
- Log autoresearch run #4 and update lessons in autoresearch.md

 ## What's Been Tried
 
 - **#2 (auto-fix)**: `biome check --write` — fixed 26 auto-fixable errors (format/organizeImports), dropped diagnostics from 40 to 11. Status: keep.
-- **#3 (manual fixes)**: Removed 7 unused imports (`injectReasoningGuidance`, `withQueryTimeout`, `getAutoSession`, `logWarning` x3, `debugLog`, `readFileSync/unlinkSync/writeFileSync`) and prefixed 4 intentionally-unused items with underscore (`_MAX_HISTOGRAM_BUCKETS`, `_REASONING_ASSIST_MAX_CHARS`, `_basePath`, `_withQueryTimeout`). Dropped from 11 to 0. Status: keep.
+- **#3 (manual fixes)**: Removed 7 unused imports and prefixed 4 intentionally-unused items with underscore. Dropped from 11 to 0. Status: keep.
+- **#4 (regression re-fix)**: 37 new commits introduced 74 diagnostics. `biome check --write` fixed 58 (auto-safe), manual prefix/removal fixed the remaining 16 unsafe warnings across 11 files. Also fixed pre-existing web-mode-onboarding test timeout: added `timeoutMs: 120_000` to `launchPackagedWebHost`, raised `AbortSignal.timeout` on simple fetches 10s→30s, raised test budget 180s→420s. All 409 test files pass. Diagnostics: 0. Status: keep.
+
+## Lessons
+- New development (37 commits) is enough to re-introduce 74 diagnostics. Re-run autoresearch periodically (monthly or after large feature branches land).
+- Pattern of new violations: unused imports from refactors, unused function params from stubs, duplicate imports. Auto-fix handles errors; unsafe-fix (unused-import/var) requires manual triage.
+- Integration test timeout under parallel load: cold-start Next.js can consume most of a 180s test timeout leaving insufficient budget for multi-step API calls. Fix: bound launch phase separately, raise individual fetch timeouts, increase overall budget to match worst-case sum.
