Why: Codex stop-time review 2026-05-10 — clipCardImageCorners was
slotted between unwrapFakePhoneMockups and resolveTreeRoles in the
post-streaming pipeline. Cards that don't carry an explicit
cornerRadius from the sub-agent get one filled in by role-resolver
(e.g. role='card' → default cornerRadius=12). Running clip before role
defaults silently skipped every default-radius card — match policy
required scalar cornerRadius > 0 and saw cornerRadius=undefined at
that point. Net effect: the bug stayed for the most common case where
the model wrote role='card' without a numeric radius.
What: move the clipCardImageCorners call to the freshRoot block right
after resolveTreeRoles + resolveTreePostPass. By that point the
role-resolver has populated defaults, so a card without an explicit
radius now correctly hits the predicate. Reuse the existing
\`freshRoot\` reference (re-fetched after updateNode mutations earlier
in the pipeline) so we don't double-fetch from the store.
No new tests — the existing 9 unit tests already pin the predicate;
the bug was placement-only. 1448 / 1448 pen-core tests, 1110 / 1110
AI service tests still pass.
