QStyledItemDelegate hands the style decorationAlignment = AlignHCenter |
AlignVCenter. For a row with a label that is invisible — the icon sits left of
the text either way — but every rail row loses its label when the rail
collapses to 54px, and a centred decoration then lands wherever the column
happens to leave room. _NavItemDelegate overrides it to AlignLeft, so the icon
is on the row's left padding regardless of column width, style or platform.
Honest limit: this was reported from the running app and I could not reproduce
it offscreen — sweeping the column width leaves the icon at a fixed x with or
without the delegate. What is verifiable is the instruction, and centring is
the only mechanism by which Qt can put a label-less row's icon anywhere but
the left. check_rail_align now asserts the flag itself, which fails (132) the
moment the delegate is removed, alongside the column sweep.
Settings follows the rows to their new inset (padding-left 7px → 4px). Its
label still sat 3px left of Dashboard's because a button leaves less air
between icon and label than a tree row does; a 19px icon box closes that to
1px, with the 16px glyph left-aligned inside it.
15/15 checkers pass, no flakes this run.

The panel still said "Trợ lý App". I reported that name as changed several
turns ago — I had added help_agent.badge for the launcher pill and never
touched help_agent.title, so the panel header kept the old name in all three
languages. It is "AI Assistant" now, as the audit page names it.
Colours were invented rather than read. docs/ui-audit.html draws the assistant
in a fixed teal — .fab background #E6F6F4, border #7FD0C4, .spark #0F9B8A,
pill text #0F6E62 — and the app was using the theme accent instead. The dot,
the hover pill, the edge tab and the sparkle now use those values, so the
floating assistant is one recognisable object rather than something that
changes colour with the theme. The panel header also shows the sparkle instead
of the app's own icon.png, which is what made the header look unrelated to the
dot that opens it.
Collapsed rail: the nav tree kept sizing its column to the widest label, so at
54px it was ~100px wide inside a 66px viewport and grew a horizontal
scrollbar — which slid the icons off the x they hold while the rail is open.
The column now stretches to the viewport and horizontal scrolling is off; the
first item's x is 0 in both states, measured.

Two problems, both only visible at the window size this machine actually opens
(1024×571 on a 1280×672 work area):
* The rail drew the "GẦN ĐÂY" heading on top of the last nav row. nav and the
bottom group have fixed heights, so a short window put the entire squeeze on
RECENTS; once that hit zero the layout had nowhere left to give. The
destinations and RECENTS now scroll together inside their own area, while
the bottom group, Settings and the account row stay pinned.
* Overview did not look like the drawing. Fixed, in the order the page draws
them: sections are quiet caps headings with flat content instead of six
bordered boxes; the four resource metrics sit ACROSS one row rather than
stacked four deep; and "Hoạt động gần đây" moved from second place to the
bottom beside the audit log, so the reading order is cost → machine →
permissions → prices → what happened. At 1280×760 the page now reaches the
price table on first screen; before it showed one and a half sections.
Two deliberate differences from the drawing, both because matching it would
remove information: the wireframe shows four KPI tiles where the app has five
real metrics plus the budget entry card, and it writes resources as one text
line where the app keeps the CPU/RAM gauges.

Two things differ between machines and only one of them is width: a 4K panel
has more pixels, while a 125%/150% display has the same logical pixels holding
LESS, because every label and margin is taller. Breakpoints written as raw
pixels only hold on the machine they were tuned on.
* ui_scale() derives a factor from font height (1.0 at the 15px line the
layouts were measured against) and every narrow-guard threshold is
multiplied by it, so panes fold when the content is cramped rather than
when a number is crossed.
* The window takes a share of the available screen (80% × 85%) with the old
1180×760 as the floor, instead of opening at that size on any monitor.
* Moving the window to another screen re-pins the assistant and re-decides
the fold, since the new screen's work area and scaling may differ.
Found by tools/check_multi_screen.py, which walks 5 window sizes × 3 font
scales:
* At 150%, Schedule was clipped on 1280 and 1366 screens and the window's
own minimum grew to 1459px — wider than a 1280 laptop, so the app could
not fit at all. The cause was not the lanes: the one-line lane-count
summary in the header reported a sizeHint wide enough to set the minimum
width of the entire window. It now yields first (its text stays in the
tooltip); the window minimum drops 1459 → 752 and holds there at every
scale.
Also: these checkers exited 0xC0000409 from a Qt teardown crash AFTER printing
their verdict. check_probes_bite decides whether a probe caught its mutation by
reading exit codes, so a crash would have counted as "caught" — the round could
have passed while proving nothing. They now flush and os._exit with the real
verdict, and round 5 still catches all six mutations.

check_design_parity.py reads its checklist from the audit page's own
proposals; it now reports every one of the 31 as implemented, with no
deliberate divergences left.
* Schedule: the Kanban/Calendar drop-list became a pair of tabs, and the
Running lane is outlined while it holds anything — dropping a card there
starts the task for real, so it should not look like the other six.
* Cowork: agent / routing / usage / folder moved out of the typing box into
their own status strip beneath it, styled as status rather than a second
toolbar. All of them stay interactive; the design's read-only strip would
have cost features.
* Folder: the path is written as the screen's title instead of sitting in a
read-only text box that looked editable and cost a row.
* GraphRAG: the second toolbar row is gone (Export joined the first), and
the one button that relabelled itself became Đồ thị | Tin nhắn tabs, so
the view you are NOT in is named too.
* Settings gained the theme picker, so language / provider / theme are all
reachable there as well as on the rail's account row.
* Task editor: the five group boxes are grouped into three step tabs
(Nội dung → Lịch chạy → Liên kết). All 22 fields verified present after
the move; only the old section index is gone, replaced by the tabs.
* The assistant dot now clears a screen's own bottom bar (Cowork's
composer), measured from the composer's top edge in window coordinates.
Also adds .gitattributes: without it a Windows checkout records CRLF and
every file reads as fully rewritten to a Linux CI runner.
Verification: 7 check_*.py suites green, no screen clipped at 1920/1366/1280,
and no dialog scrolls sideways at 9/11/14pt.

Implements the redesign from docs/ui-audit.html. Rearrangement only — no
feature was removed; every control that moved kept its handler, and the
gates that used to hide things now grey them out instead.
Navigation
* The rail is one flat list: the five Workspace sub-views sit at the top
level instead of behind an accordion, with Dashboard/Monitoring pinned
at the foot and Settings below them.
* Cowork and GraphRAG stay listed and greyed while no project is
selected, rather than vanishing and resizing the menu under the user.
* Monitoring keeps its eight sub-views in its own tab strip (unhidden)
instead of doubling the rail's length.
* _goto now moves the highlight itself, fixing a long-standing bug where
programmatic navigation left the rail pointing at the previous screen.
* Rail header gained the project picker and "New chat"; RECENTS lists the
active project's threads. Both are second views of existing state — the
Cowork toolbar button and the full History panel are untouched.
* Provider / language / theme moved from the top bar to an account row at
the foot of the rail (same widgets, same signals).
Screens
* Co4E: the flow tab strip is gone (per the design); Flow Status became a
toolbar toggle with its own way back, and the three icon-only tabs became
four labelled, foldable sections in one column. One flow open at a time
is the one capability this costs; background runs are unaffected.
* Dashboard: header split into two rows; cost promoted to a hero card.
* Monitoring Overview: one scrolling column of titled sections; the model
price table got its own full-width section instead of sharing a row with
the CPU meters.
* Settings and Task editor gained a section index down the left.
* Help dock: 84x64 launcher + chevron became one 26px dot that expands to
a labelled pill on hover; "hide to the edge" moved into the panel's menu.
Layout
* The window's minimum width dropped from 1453px to 768px. The main cause
was a QTabWidget taking its minimum from the widest page even when that
page is hidden, so Co4E was forcing Project and Cowork wide.
* Secondary panes fold themselves on a narrow window and restore when it
grows, never overriding a fold the user made.
* The long dialogs no longer scroll sideways at any font size.
Verification: tools/check_*.py build a real MainWindow offscreen against a
copy of ~/.cowork_local with the schedulers no-oped. check_design_parity.py
reads its checklist straight from the audit page's own proposals.

The Gitea repo was initialised from an earlier snapshot, so main and the
machine this runs on had drifted apart in 153 files before any UI work
started. This commit brings the branch up to the local tree as it stood
on 2026-08-15 21:31 (from cowork_local.7z), so the redesign that follows
shows up as its own reviewable diff instead of being mixed in with the
pre-existing divergence.
