Subject: [PATCH 1/6] feat(agent-launch): hiding an agent only hides it from
 pickers

The Settings switch that turns an agent off now only decides whether it
shows in menus and pickers. An explicit launch of a hidden agent works
from every path:

- Host: removes the agent.launch planner, OpenCode session, resume, phone
  session terminal, worktree-create startup and orchestration launcher
  refusals, and the bare-command matcher's hidden skip. A linked draft
  starts the requested agent as is; only the default and detected picks
  skip hidden agents.
- Typed commands match Settings command overrides before built-in
  commands, so a collision resolves to the agent the user named.
- Status hooks follow only the status-hooks switch. Hiding an agent no
  longer removes its hooks or re-runs hook installation; hooks still go
  only to agents whose CLI is found on the machine.
- Desktop window: dashboard spawn, saved AI-button / fix-checks agents,
  automation save, session continuation, the Source Control launch
  check, task-page direct launch and composer submit no longer refuse or
  drop an explicitly chosen hidden agent.

The phone client's own pre-checks move to a follow-up PR.

Subject: [PATCH 2/6] fix(agent-launch): saved hidden agents start from the
 Source Control dialog

- The Source Control action dialog and its auto-start check only whether
  the saved or selected agent is installed; the picker stays filtered.
- Checks panel AI actions stay available when a saved agent is installed
  even if every detected agent is hidden.
- Typed agent commands keep main's match order; only the hidden-agent
  skip is gone, so users who hide nothing see no change.
- Leftovers: the offline CLI hook path, the OpenCode hook selector and
  the hook installer no longer carry per-agent hidden state.

Subject: [PATCH 5/6] fix(agent-launch): name both causes and the next step in
 no-agent notices

The AI buttons, checks panel and Fix checks say no agent is both
installed and shown, and offer installing or showing one; Quick Launch
says all agents are hidden. Locale pins keep the new label and ja Shown
stable under regeneration.
