Subject: [PATCH] fix(aiui): node-content surfaces stay open when the reply
 text infers no tabs
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Reproduced live: 'show me paid for peer files' returned surfaces=1 with 3
purchased images over the bridge, then updatePanelFromText set panelOpen
from the REGEX-inferred tab list — a plain markdown list matches nothing,
so the panel closed and the user saw prose only. panelOpen now follows
orderedTabs (Archy tabs lead). Regression test pins the exact turn.
