feat(ui): dock pickers above the input and unify subagent status chrome - #53
Merged
Conversation
- Dock the /subagents and /ps pickers just above the editor (bottom-center overlay, content-sized with a 10-row scroll cap) instead of covering the conversation; takeover and detail views stay fullscreen. - Collapse the subagent strip's marker+status-square pair into one status glyph (running/done/failed), show worded counts (1 running / 1 done / 1 failed) instead of 0/1 agents, and trim context utilization to a bare percent; the per-subagent model stays in the takeover view since the footer already shows a model. - Drop the redundant footer status line in the TUI: the strip already reports the same activity with the manage affordance. - Replace the heavy ■/● markers in the settled summary, result, and finished-notification renderers with the ✓/!/x status vocabulary.

What
Subagent and background-terminal status UI polish:
/subagentsand/psnow open as a bottom-anchored, content-sized panel (10-row scroll cap,maxHeight: 60%) just above the editor — command-palette style — instead of a center overlay covering the conversation. Takeover (/subagents→ enter) and terminal detail views stay fullscreen: they are workspaces, not glances.○) on a status square (■). A single glyph carries state —●running,✓done,xfailed,❯when focused — matching the dashboard's status vocabulary.0/1 agentsbecomes1 running/1 done/1 failed; context utilization trims from2%/1.0Mto2% ctx; the per-subagent model leaves the strip (the footer already shows a model; the takeover view keeps the per-subagent one).subagents: ■ 1 running · /subagents to viewfooter status is gone — the strip reports the same activity and carries the manage affordance.
