A user got stuck on the wizard's loading screen: a hung model meant
silence, and silence was indistinguishable from work - the server's own
hard deadline is 2x OLLAMA_TIMEOUT_MS (ten minutes by default), and the
client waited on a dead stream indefinitely.
Both generate routes (deck, homework) now send an NDJSON heartbeat
every 15s, and the client guards the two quiet phases: no response at
all for 45s, and no bytes for 90s mid-stream, both surfacing the
regular error state with a Retry. The caller's abort still maps to the
friendly "cancelled" state.
Verified with a stalled route and Playwright's fake clock in the wizard
suite (93 checks), plus contrast 0 findings, mobile 124/124, chat
101/101, regression 44/44, i18n 13/13, native 33/33.
Version 0.4.0, SW -> freezmo-v69.
