 After `pane move`, use `.result.move_result.pane.pane_id` for later commands. A cross-workspace move changes the workspace-qualified pane ID; the prior value remains at `.result.move_result.previous_pane_id`. The running process keeps its launch-time `HERDR_PANE_ID`, `HERDR_TAB_ID`, and `HERDR_WORKSPACE_ID`; Herdr retains the old pane ID as an alias for that terminal, so pane commands using `--current` still resolve it. A live agent name follows the terminal and continues to resolve after the move.
