Pull request overview

This PR updates the Agents Window’s agent feedback overlay input widget so that clicking on the widget background (outside the textarea and action bar) focuses the textarea, making it easier to start typing feedback without precisely clicking inside the input.

Changes:

  • Add a widget-level mouse interaction handler to focus the textarea when clicking on non-interactive areas of the overlay.
  • Exclude clicks that originate from the textarea itself or the action bar container.
