Subject: [PATCH] fix: background sub-agent and timer replies only show in the
 open chat after a page reload (#31576)

When a sub-agent running in the background finished, or a timer the model set went off, the result and the model's follow-up reply were saved but did not show in the chat the user had open. They only appeared after a manual page reload. They now show in the open chat as soon as they arrive.

Fixes #31566
