Preserve the environment ID in legacy plan follow-ups.
When inlineMessageContext is unsupported, onSubmitPlanFollowUp passes context directly to startThreadTurn. Older servers drop these records and forward the links as literal text. The current legacy serializer also cannot preserve this new record: it replaces an environment reference with its label and emits no environment block. The agent therefore cannot rely on receiving the structured environmentId needed to link or delegate to the selected machine.
Read the capability at dispatch, as ordinary sends do. For unsupported servers, use a legacy format that includes the environment label, environmentId, and the existing link/delegation instruction. Extend the legacy serializer and upgrade path for environment records before using that fallback here; adding only the capability check would still lose the machine identity.

JNot changing this here. Plan follow-ups send every chip kind (terminal, review comment, thread) the same way on main, without the inlineMessageContext check; machine chips follow that path. A server without inline context also has no peer links, so a machine reference there has nothing to act on. If plan follow-ups should serialize for legacy servers, that is one fix for all chip kinds, separate from this PR.
C@juliusmarminge Thanks for clarifying. Machine chips use the existing plan follow-up path, and servers without inline context have no peer links to act on machine references. This is not a machine-chip regression. I withdraw this finding from this PR.
Any legacy serialization change should cover all chip kinds together. Would you like a follow-up issue for that shared behavior?

| 5 | Learning: In pingdotgg/t3code, servers without inlineMessageContext support also lack peer links, so they cannot act on machine references for linking or delegation. In apps/web/src/components/ChatView.tsx, assess legacy plan follow-up serialization as a shared concern across chip kinds, not as a machine-chip-specific requirement. |

Copying a machine chip produces no environment record in the clipboard fragment, so pasting it into another draft leaves a reference with no machine payload. buildContextClipboardFragment collects thread contexts but omits composerEnvironmentContexts; include the selected environment records in the fragment.

Write queued-edit machine records to the edited draft.
When props.draftKey is set for a queued-message edit, the editor uses composerDraftKey, but the menu uses composerOwnerKey. Selecting a machine puts its reference in the edited message and its record in the ordinary thread draft. The edited message therefore has no matching environment payload. Pass composerDraftKey as ownerKey.

✅ Confirmed as addressed by @juliusmarminge
JFixed in 3666271a4f: the menu writes to the composer's draft key, so a queued edit's machine chips land with the edited text.
C@juliusmarminge Thanks. The menu and editor now both use composerDraftKey, so queued-edit machine records stay with the edited text.

Selecting an environment mention while answering a pending question adds its record to the ordinary thread draft, so a later ordinary send includes that machine even though the thread prompt does not reference it. applyPromptReplacement routes the text to the question answer, but this branch adds the record to composerDraftTarget, and the question path in onPromptChange does not reconcile it; disable this selection during questions or store and reconcile the context with the answer.

JStill true after the earlier change, so fixed in 3666271a4f: while the composer answers an agent's question, the @ menu offers no machines and a pasted machine chip is dropped. An answer carries thread links only, so a machine record had nowhere correct to go.
