Summary
Add
tailsupport to theReadtool so models can read the last N lines of log/output files, while keepingoffsetfor normal forward reads. Update file read presentation and the Read card UI to handle tail reads and preserve legacystart_linedisplay for older persisted data.Fixes #

Rust core, execution primitives, web UI
Motivation / Impact
This gives the model a direct way to poll the end of growing files, which is useful for command output and logs.
offsetremains the standard forward-read parameter, andtail=truenow covers tail-follow workflows without overloading line offsets.Verification
pnpm run type-check:webcargo test -p bitfun-core read_ -- --nocapturecargo test -p tool-runtime read_file_tail -- --nocaptureReviewer Notes
tail=trueis mutually exclusive withoffset. The result payload still reports the actual starting line so existing read-state and edit guardrails continue to work.Checklist
