gadak v0.20.0

The shell is in the window, and it is the issue's shell. The terminal
dock is a band across the whole window now — one horizontal seam under the
sidebar, the list and a docked detail alike, a quarter of the height by
default, every column of the width (GDK-1352). The session roster is a
column on its left, as wide as the sidebar above it, so the window keeps
reading as navigation on the left and content on the right (GDK-1355).
And the dock has an appearance of its own: dark under every app theme,
because xterm's sixteen are a dark-ground palette and nine of them fell
under 3.0:1 on paper; follow if you want it in the app's colours, and a
Settings → Terminal tab for that, the font, scrollback and the cursor
(GDK-1357). The light palette declares its own sixteen — brick, moss,
ochre, indigo, plum, teal, readable greys for the two whites — as tokens
like any other, overridable through ui.tokens.colors (GDK-1358); the
block cursor is ink on its ground rather than a fill (GDK-1359); and the
pane paints its ground under the last row too (GDK-1354).

gadak claim typed in that pane binds the shell to the issue, and the
roster tab is named by the key. The README and the landing show exactly
that now, in gadak's own pane: the paper-terminal composites are retired
(GDK-1353).

A pass over the surface. The sidebar is a return path, not a table of
contents — a workspace row on top, quiet sections, one footer row
(GDK-1335). The list toolbar is one row until you narrow the view, rows
are 36px, the stale age is a number rather than a box, and the palette has
one door (GDK-1336). Every column screen — Documents, spaces, History,
dashboards, the feed — shares one header band (GDK-1339). The detail is
one property list under a chip row that keeps only what changes
(GDK-1337), its prose has a type scale and a wide-reading toggle
(GDK-1311), and the board's recent actors are faces (GDK-1338).
Every control reacts and nothing takes longer than 160ms; hover is a wash
of ink over whatever it sits on (GDK-1341). Copy link to this view pastes
the Jira navigator URL first and the app links after, the way the issue
detail's copy link already did (GDK-1343); the key of an issue you have
opened goes quiet, and one changed since carries a dot (GDK-1344); the
breakdown legend folds to +N more instead of squeezing labels to slivers
(GDK-1348); Switch to workspace is a palette action (GDK-1340).

The first run opens on "where do your issues live?" with nothing
preselected, says what gadak is before it asks for anything, and on the
built-in tracker the empty list invites the first issue instead of
promising a sync (GDK-1342, GDK-1345, GDK-1286, GDK-1287).

Back works everywhere — the first inbound round, all of it shipped.
@woojing brought five reports (discussion #80, issue #85), and every one
is in this release. Thank you.
Every place change goes through history — a linked issue, a person, a view,
a query — so the browser's back button does what it says (GDK-1296). The
detail's copy link pastes the origin's page first (GDK-1290); the settings
dialog keeps one width across tabs (GDK-1291); a dock click on a
fullscreen window stays fullscreen (GDK-1294); and a gadak:// link
naming a workspace this machine lacks is refused in a dialog instead of
replacing the app with a 404 page (GDK-1309). Along the way, issue links
open on their own origin, one branch per tracker with no fallback across
them (GDK-1149, GDK-1308).

Leaving and keeping. migrate --to linear sends a mirror into a Linear
team, idempotently (GDK-1265). gadak backup copies the built-in
tracker's record with the serve running (GDK-1277). A paired workspace
mirrors the home origin's wiki (GDK-1276), and pairing mint refuses a
loopback offer that could never bind (GDK-1266). Confluence sync excludes
personal spaces only, so team space types stay (GDK-1302).
docs/SUPPORT_MATRIX.md is the one table for Jira, Linear and the
built-in tracker, a citation per cell (GDK-1300), and the built-in
tracker is named once across the CLI and the docs (GDK-1285,
GDK-1288).

Fixed. edit -m - refuses an empty stdin instead of clearing the
description (GDK-1360). migrate onto the built-in tracker kept every
status name and lost every status category on a mirror whose
status_catalog had never been filled — Done and In Progress arrived as
open issues, and claim had no in-progress state to land on
(GDK-1361). A write typed into a named workspace's pane no longer opens
with warning: workspace: … (from GADAK_WORKSPACE) — the serve set that
variable to name the window's own workspace (GDK-1362). The freshness
chip names the origin's tracker, not Jira (GDK-1325); the phone's pairing
tab says Built-in (GDK-1321). Three defects the pre-tag audit found are
in: init --replace-standalone is accepted again, an issue with no origin
page no longer advertises "Open in Built-in", and migrate --to linear
maps a team whose only done state is canceled (GDK-1312, GDK-1313,
GDK-1314).
