## Description

---

Individual WebSocket RPC definitions are consumed through the assembled RPC group, not as separate package exports.

Keep those RPC implementation values and the runtime tool-lifecycle constant private. Preserve all Effect schemas, schema aliases, and exported types. This PR no longer rewrites schema aliases or their consumers.

Verification: contracts and consumer typechecks pass, existing contracts tests pass, and the integrated Knip gate passes. No existing tests were changed or removed.

Follows [#10167](https://github.com/pingdotgg/t3code/pull/10167).

> [!NOTE]
> ### Keep RPC implementation exports private in `contracts`
> Converts all exported RPC definition constants in [rpc.ts](https://github.com/pingdotgg/t3code/pull/10168/files#diff-64c16995299d1af309c72e94a298ffcb5c2ee5c65774cf0c73bf997358e9c266) and the `TOOL_LIFECYCLE_ITEM_TYPES` constant in [providerRuntime.ts](https://github.com/pingdotgg/t3code/pull/10168/files#diff-448aaf2dfbb7547d852cc74c6bba5caea16c3c782a5f9cfbf43da71648ec61f7) to module-private. Schema fields and behavior are unchanged; several `Rpc.make` calls were reformatted to a compact layout.
> - Risk: external consumers importing these constants by name will fail to compile. In-tree references must rely on the public RPC contract surface rather than the implementation constants.
