Message: REASONING_MESSAGE_CONTENT for messageId '{messageId}' with no open REASONING_MESSAGE_START
Spec grounding
Multiple content events with the same messageId should be concatenated to form the complete visible reasoning.
Source: https://docs.ag-ui.com/concepts/events#reasoningmessagecontent
The spec is not fully explicit here; the ambiguity is tracked as SQ-4 and the severity is capped accordingly (false positives are worse than false negatives).
Example
A violating stream from the corpus (spec/fixtures/invalid/AGUI401-reasoning-content-without-start):
{"type":"RUN_STARTED","threadId":"thread_001","runId":"run_001","timestamp":1755300018400}
{"type":"REASONING_MESSAGE_CONTENT","messageId":"rmsg_ghost","delta":"orphan","timestamp":1755300018500}
{"type":"RUN_FINISHED","threadId":"thread_001","runId":"run_001","outcome":{"type":"success"},"timestamp":1755300018600}
Expected findings:
errorAGUI401 at event 1 — REASONING_MESSAGE_CONTENT for messageId 'rmsg_ghost' with no open REASONING_MESSAGE_START
