* feat(agent-dashboard): choose in-window screen popover or pop-out window
The experimental Agent Dashboard opened only as a separate pop-out
window. Add an "Open as" mode under the experimental toggle so it can
open as an in-window screen popover (new default) or a pop-out window
(prior behavior). The mode row appears only when the feature is on.
- New setting `experimentalAgentDashboardMode: 'in-window' | 'popout'`
(default in-window); sidebar entry branches on it.
- In-window: AgentDashboardOverlay renders the shared AgentKanbanBoard
in a near-fullscreen dialog, snapshot built locally via
useLiveDashboardSnapshot (the pop-out relays over IPC; in-window has
no relay). Ack/reveal act on the local store — the pop-out IPC
handlers are gated to the pop-out renderer.
- AgentKanbanBoard gains containerClassName/onAckAgent/onRevealAgent/
onClose props; defaults preserve the pop-out behavior.
- Extracted AgentDashboardExperimentalSetting to keep ExperimentalPane
under the max-lines cap.
* fix(agent-dashboard): admit main renderer to terminal-preview IPC for in-window dialog
The terminalPreview:* handlers gated every channel to the pop-out
renderer, so the in-window overlay's terminal dialog (running in the
main renderer) got { snapshot: null } from connect and falsely showed
"No live terminal — this agent's pane has closed." for live agents.
Accept the trusted UI renderer too — it already has full PTY access
through the regular terminal channels, so this adds no reach.
* fix(agent-dashboard): sync locale catalogs for new mode/close keys
verify:localization-catalog (part of lint CI) fails when en.json keys are
missing from the other locale catalogs; run sync:localization-catalog so
the six new agent-dashboard keys exist everywhere (English fallback text;
translated copy remains the documented follow-up).
* feat(agent-dashboard): present in-window mode as a companion board sheet
The in-window dashboard now uses the same non-modal left sheet as the
workspace kanban board — anchored to the sidebar edge, chrome/status-bar
bounds, sidebar stays interactive — instead of a near-fullscreen modal
dialog. Both companion boards are mutually exclusive; the sidebar entry
toggles the drawer. Removes the modal focus-restore timing coupling on
reveal.
* fix(agent-dashboard): ignore Radix dismiss requests like the workspace board
Non-modal Radix layers also request dismissal for interactions the drawer's
outside guards cannot classify — focus moving outside carries no pointer
coordinates, and clicks in the status bar / top chrome fall outside the
right-side dismiss band. Forward only open requests from the Sheet, matching
WorkspaceKanbanDrawer, so only the drawer's own escape/outside/close paths
close it.
* fix(agent-dashboard): guard reveal relay and refresh stale mode copy
CodeRabbit review: revealAgent lacked the ?. HMR-skew guard its sibling
ackAgent has (both channels shipped together, so a stale dev preload
lacks both). The es/ja/ko/zh catalogs also still described the dashboard
as pop-out-only in stale English, contradicting the new in-window
default; refreshed to the current English source.
* feat(agent-dashboard): add board settings menu to the in-window header
Mirrors the workspace board's settings gear: an Open as segmented control
in the board header so the mode is changeable without opening Settings.
Switching to pop-out hands the surface over (closes the drawer, opens the
window) instead of leaving a board the setting says should be a window.
In-window only via an optional headerActions slot - the pop-out renderer
has no store to drive it.
* fix(agent-dashboard): reset the settings-menu flag when the drawer closes
The pop-out hand-off closes the sheet while the menu is still open, so the
menu unmounts without Radix reporting onOpenChange(false). The stale
menuOpen=true then blocked outside-dismiss permanently on the next
in-window open. Mirror closeWorkspaceBoard by resetting the flag in close.
* fix(agent-dashboard): reset the menu flag on store-driven drawer closes
Cmd+B sidebar collapse and the workspace-board exclusivity effect close
the drawer via setAgentDashboardDrawerOpen directly, bypassing close();
a settings menu open at that moment unmounted without Radix reporting
onOpenChange(false), leaving menuOpen stuck true and outside-dismiss
disabled on the next open. Sync the flag to the open state so every
close path resets it.
