Messages byre itself sends an agent (actor `byre`, such as the restart notice) show as a muted note, not a user bubble. The transcript view has an accent border while the session is `running`, and a braille spinner on its last line, cycling ⠋⠙⠹⠸⠼⠴⠦⠧⠇⠏ every 0.8s. It is one element with one CSS animation: the ten frames are drawn side by side in an inline SVG used as the `.spinner` mask over an accent background, and the `braille` keyframes in `web/style.css` step the mask position through them. Orion freezes animated GIFs and per-dot `step-end` opacity animations partway through a turn, so it stays a single element with a single animation. Consecutive tool calls (with any thinking between them) collapse into one group whose summary counts calls per tool and file, and file paths show relative to the worktree. A turn's final message that is at least half visible in the transcript while the page is visible dismisses its `report` inbox item, as the viewing user. Selecting a task that has never had a session focuses the composer. In the composer, Enter sends and Shift-Enter adds a newline; unsent text is kept per task in memory, so it survives switching tabs or tasks but not a page reload. The composer is the same whether or not the task has a live session: Send posts to the session's messages, or starts a session with the text when there is none or the last one completed. A sent message shows at once as a "sending…" bubble, replaced by the server's `user.message` event with the same text when it arrives, and removed (text and images back in the composer) if the request fails.
The task switcher (⌘K, or the navbar crumb) lists active tasks with their session state and open inbox item count, live while it is open. Tasks with inbox items come first; otherwise the order is the server's (projects by name, tasks newest first). Typing filters them and adds a last row that creates a task with the typed text as its title, in the current task's project (the first project when no task is selected); Enter picks the highlighted row. Picking a task here or in the Tasks view selects it and, if neither pane shows the Transcript tab, switches a pane that isn't showing Tasks to it.
The task switcher (⌘K, or the navbar crumb) lists active tasks with their session state and open inbox item count, live while it is open. Tasks with inbox items come first; within each group, the task least recently visited in this browser comes first (never-visited tasks before all others, ties in the server's order: projects by name, tasks newest first). Visit times are kept in the browser's localStorage under `byre.visits`, stamped when a task is selected and again when it is left. Typing filters them and adds a last row that creates a task with the typed text as its title, in the current task's project (the first project when no task is selected); Enter picks the highlighted row. Picking a task here or in the Tasks view selects it and, if neither pane shows the Transcript tab, switches a pane that isn't showing Tasks to it.
