Differentiate sidebar 'active' vs 'done' status colors #1265

@brennanb2025

Description

@brennanb2025

Context

After #1246 (recolor agent done from sky blue to emerald green) and the follow-up fix to restore green for 'active' (terminal open, quiet), both 'active' and 'done' render the same emerald dot in the sidebar StatusIndicator.

For users without the experimental agent-tracking toggle this is fine — they never reach the 'done' state anyway. But for users with it on, a newly-opened quiet terminal and a completed agent read identically.

Proposal

Visually distinguish the two states — for example:

  • 'active': dimmer emerald (e.g., bg-emerald-500/60) — "terminal open"
  • 'done': full emerald (bg-emerald-500) — "agent completed"

Or use a different hue entirely for 'done' while keeping the heuristic green for 'active'.
