feat(dashboard): background-activity center (11.3.1)#91
Merged
Conversation
Long-running shell work (the 11.3 model download, a full reindex, later sync/import) ran with no ambient indicator — the model download in particular was silent, and a per-panel Settings card you must navigate to isn't the right home. Add a first-class activity surface in the dashboard chrome, mirroring the sync-status chip. - shared activity-types.ts (ActivityKind/ActivityPhase/BackgroundOperation) - pure BackgroundActivityStore (set/clear/snapshot/onChange, recency order, dedup no-op push) - activity:* IPC (accessor + push to the dashboard) + preload bridge - useBackgroundActivity hook; <ActivityChip> (shown only while work is in flight — spinner + freshest-op title + percent, "N tasks" when several, warning on error) + <ActivityPopover> (a row + determinate/indeterminate bar per op, via the shared <Popover>) - producers: the 11.3 model download (operationFromSemanticStatus) and the full reindex (surfaced only past a 500ms guard so fast per-edit reconciles don't flicker the chip). sync/import/export register the same way (kinds already defined). +22 tests (store 9 · mapper 3 · handlers 4 · chip/popover 6). tsc + lint + shell build + size clean. Complements the Settings → Search detail card: the chip is the ambient indicator, the card the drill-down. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

What
Long-running shell work — the 11.3 model download, a full search reindex, later sync/import/backup — ran with no ambient indicator. The model download in particular was silent, and the per-panel Settings → Search card (from #89) is a drill-down you have to navigate to, not an ambient signal. This adds a first-class background-activity surface in the dashboard chrome, mirroring the existing sync-status chip.
