Description

This PR adds a few more hints/pieces of discoverability for local -> cloud. Specifically, it adds:

  • a tip about & to the list of tips that we show below the warping indicator
  • a note about the & entrypoint to the handoff chip
  • a note about the & entrypoint to the keybinding list above the input in the agent view (replacing the code review note)

Testing

  • I have manually tested my changes locally with ./script/run

Overview

This PR adds local-to-cloud handoff discoverability in agent tips, the handoff chip tooltip, and the agent-view zero-state shortcut row.

Concerns

  • The new clickable & hint is shown when cloud handoff is enabled, but not when the ampersand entrypoint itself is enabled; this can advertise and activate the disabled & entrypoint.

Verdict

Found: 0 critical, 1 important, 0 suggestions

⚠️ [IMPORTANT] This hint represents the & entrypoint, but it is only gated on general cloud handoff availability; when is_ampersand_handoff_enabled is false, the hint still appears and clicking it bypasses the disabled ampersand path. Gate this row on AISettings::as_ref(app).is_ampersand_handoff_enabled(app) and apply the same ampersand-specific gate to the other new & copy surfaces.

Yeah this is true, but the settings gate is just to prevent folks like Andy from getting frustrated where typing & auto-enters handoff mode

I do think it probably makes sense to also hide this if you've turned the setting off (because if you've turned it off you clearly know about the feature)
