Route the app off its hand-rolled helpers onto lib/{text,time,format,json-format}
and the new primitives, plus assorted small tidy-ups:
- compactNumber for counts/tokens; normalize/capitalize/asText at the many
filter/label sites; shared Intl date/time formatters; row-hover + framed
editor adoption; scrollbar-gutter + padding parity on list surfaces.
- Messaging/Artifacts/Cron search hints + narrow-viewport tab dropdown;
floating-pet adopts useOnProfileSwitch; number formatting in statusbar,
command-center, agents.
- Electron: native overlay width + backend spawn tidy.
- Settings > Keys: credential fields read as plain subtext (all-unset) until
the group is focused or expanded, then take full input chrome with no
horizontal/vertical shift; inline Remove (trash) + Save mirror SearchField's
trailing-clear pattern instead of a floating hint that overlapped the card;
Esc still cancels. Drops the now-dead or/escToCancel i18n keys.
- Shared TabDropdown/ResponsiveTabs (components/ui): PageSearchShell and the
Command Center log file/level filters reuse the one narrow-width collapse.
- OverlayNav: data-driven pane nav — persistent rail on wide, a single dropdown
riding the titlebar strip on narrow; Settings and Command Center adopt it, and
the mobile dropdown carries the same section icons as the rail. Fixes narrow
vertical centering, redundant mobile section titles, gateway-status wrap, and
Panel master/detail stacking.
- OverlayIconButton is now the titlebar ghost button, matching the close X at
every size. Settings sub-view nav opens section + sub-view in one navigate so
API-keys/accounts actually open on narrow.
- Settings > Model: cube icon (was the {} namespace glyph) and a DOM-shaped
skeleton in place of the centered spinner.
- Command palette / session switcher clear the macOS traffic lights on small
screens.
- Prettier/eslint sweep across the touched files.
`hermes serve` is newer than the desktop binary's release cadence, so a new
app launched against an un-upgraded managed install / PATH `hermes` would
crash on an unknown subcommand and brick the user mid-upgrade. Detect whether
the resolved runtime registers `serve` (fast source read of its dashboard.py,
with a one-time CLI probe fallback) and rewrite the backend argv to the legacy
`dashboard --no-open` only when it does not. Happy path (current runtimes)
pays nothing and still spawns `serve`.
- electron/backend-command.cjs: pure serve/dashboard argv helpers + serve-
source detection (unit-tested in backend-command.test.cjs)
- main.cjs: backendSupportsServe() cache + getBackendArgsForRuntime() guard at
both backend spawn sites; expose `root` from the Windows venv unwrap so the
fast source check covers Windows too
- docs: note the backward-compat fallback in README, desktop.md, AGENTS.md
