add docs for new event types

 Event payloads describe what is happening. Harness getters describe latest config for future snapshots. Hook and listener settlement should be awaited in lifecycle order where possible; transport backpressure is handled below the harness by `AssistantMessageStream`, so the harness does not need a separate async event queue merely to keep SSE or websocket reads flowing.
 
+### Summarization retry events
+
+When the harness is configured with a retry policy, generated compaction and branch-summary requests emit retry lifecycle events for transient provider errors:
+
+- `retry_scheduled`: a retry was scheduled. Includes `operation: "compaction" | "branch_summary"`, `attempt`, `maxAttempts`, `delayMs`, and `errorMessage`.
+- `retry_attempt_start`: the backoff delay completed and the retried summarization request is starting. Includes `operation`.
+- `retry_finished`: the retry loop finished after success, exhaustion, or abort. Includes `operation`.
+
+These events are observational and do not accept hook results.
+
 ## Planned session facade
 
 Extensions should eventually interact with a harness-scoped `HarnessSession` facade rather than the raw session. The facade should wrap the internal session and enforce harness pending-write ordering semantics. Once this exists, hooks and event listeners can receive a context that exposes the full `AgentHarness` plus the session facade without giving direct access to unordered raw session writes.

 `queue_update` emits the full pending steering and follow-up queues whenever they change. `compaction_start` and `compaction_end` cover both manual and automatic compaction.
