The surface shipped at /system with no nav entry, reachable only by
clicking the health dot beside the brand — a target you have to already
suspect something is wrong to go looking for. Operator-flagged: it needs
a path someone can walk to.
Settings is where you go to ask the instance about itself, so the view
becomes a tab there, beside Activity — Activity answers "what is the
queue doing", System answers "is anything left to do it".
- SystemView.vue moves to components/settings/SystemHealthTab.vue; the
content is unchanged apart from shedding its own container and h1.
- SettingsView adopts useTabQuery (the composable Browse and
Subscriptions already use) so a tab can be linked TO. The health dot
now points at ?tab=system, and /system redirects there so the previous
build's link and any bookmark still land.
- The tab drops its own 10s poll. v-window keeps a visited item mounted
rather than destroyed, so that timer would have gone on firing behind
Maintenance — and TopNav already polls the same store every 15s for
the dot.

The ask was a surface AND a path. The path is the part that was missing —
everything that could answer "is it running" lived inside Settings, which you
only open once you already suspect something.
**Re-used the indicator that already existed rather than adding a fourth.**
There were three partial surfaces: TopNav's health dot, PipelineStatusChip's
pulse, and the Settings Activity tab. None answered "is every part alive", and
a fourth would have made the question harder to answer, not easier.
TopNav's dot read /api/health — a no-DB liveness check proving only that the
WEB container is serving. Green there while a worker was dead is exactly what
it looked like, and a green dot beside the product name gets read as
"everything is fine". It now reflects the whole-stack verdict, and it is a
link: the place someone already looks when they suspect something is now also
the way to the detail.
The tooltip names the actual problem. "Scheduler has not checked in for 6 min"
sends someone somewhere; "something is unhealthy" sends them hunting.
/system is deliberately NOT in the nav row — TopNav builds that from routes
with a meta.title, and a sixth top-level tab for a page visited twice a year
costs more attention than it returns. It is reached from the dot.
The page lists every learned part with its state as a sentence rather than a
chip, and prints the staleness thresholds it was judged by, taken from the
endpoint so the UI keeps no second copy of them. PipelineStatusChip still
hand-rolls its own 3-minute scheduler window; that is now a duplicate of a
threshold the server owns, and worth collapsing once this has been watched
working.
The stores stay separate on purpose: system.js is "can I reach the API",
systemActivity.js is "what is the pipeline doing", systemHealth.js is "is
anything broken". Running and alive fail independently — an idle stack with a
dead worker looks identical to a healthy one on every activity surface, which
is the whole reason this milestone exists.
Not yet verified against a real stopped service. Rule 12 keeps a local stack
out of it, and frontend CI has no Vue type-check or visual regression, so this
needs an operator look rather than a green lane.

Two operator-flagged polish items from the Vuetify-4 review:
Gradient: reshape the nav + sub-header fade from a near-linear ramp to a
hold-then-soft-drop profile — hold high opacity (0.92 → seam 0.68) through the
bulk of the chrome, then ease to transparent over a small section at the bottom
with an intermediate stop, so it tails off softly instead of running a straight
line into a hard edge. Raising the shared --fc-chrome-seam also makes the tab
strips more legible over scrolling content.
Media toggle: FC's global VBtn { rounded: 'pill' } default made Vuetify 4
pill-round each SEGMENT of the All/Images/Videos v-btn-toggle individually, so
the rounded ends collided at the joins. Square the inner segments and clip the
group to one 8px outline — a proper segmented control.
Both are colour/border-radius only — no control height changes, so the filter
bar height and the nav offset (--fc-nav-h) are untouched.

The app uses a plain sticky TopNav (no v-main), and the nav's height was
hardcoded as 64px in ~6 places: the Explore + Subscriptions full-height
workspaces (height: calc(100vh - 64px)) and every sticky sub-header pinned
beneath the nav (top: 64px — Gallery filter bar, Browse/Series/Settings tabs).
Vuetify 4's MD3 sizing changed the real nav height, so 64px was wrong: the
Explore workspace was sized taller than the space below the nav, overflowed the
viewport, and its breadcrumb tucked under the (taller) nav on 1080p.
TopNav now measures its own height via ResizeObserver and publishes it as
--fc-nav-h on documentElement (default 64px in app.css). Every consumer uses
var(--fc-nav-h) instead of the magic number, so the layout self-corrects to the
nav's real height and stays correct as it reflows (per-view teleported actions,
mobile breakpoint). Also tightens the new chrome-gradient seam — sub-headers now
pin at the nav's exact bottom.

The TopNav and each sticky sub-header pinned beneath it (Gallery's filter bar,
the Browse/Series/Settings/Subscriptions tabs bars) each painted their OWN
dark-to-transparent gradient (Gallery) or a solid surface band (the rest), so
the fade read as happening twice — dark, fade out, then dark again — instead of
one gradient flowing from the nav down through the sub-nav.
Operator asked to treat the sub-nav as part of the nav with a single gradient.
New shared .fc-chrome-continues primitive (app.css): the nav fades from opaque
to a shared --fc-chrome-seam alpha (on views flagged meta.stickyChrome), and the
sub-header continues from that exact seam alpha to transparent over its own
height. Both reference the same var so the alphas meet at the 64px boundary — no
re-darkening, no doubling. Percentage stops keep it spanning the filter bar's
expanding refine panel; the primitive's blur keeps tabs/controls legible where
the old solid bars had none. --fc-chrome-seam is the single tuning knob.

Reworks Explore from "anchor + neighbour grid + cluster tag-gap rail" into a
persistent 3-pane workspace that unfolds the image modal so you can tag while
rabbit-holing (operator concept 2026-06-26):
- LEFT neighbour grid (larger thumbs), click = walk; breadcrumb retained.
- CENTER light viewer — reuses ImageCanvas + ImageMetaBar(:image) for the
focused image; "Open full viewer" still launches the overlay modal.
- RIGHT the modal's TagPanel, hosted on the anchor for modal-parity tagging
(chips, autocomplete, suggestions + Accept, fandom-on-chip, T/"/" focus).
Reuse without destabilising the audited modal store: TagPanel and
SuggestionsPanel gain an optional `host` prop (default = modal store, so the
image modal is unchanged); the explore store implements the same small
tag-CRUD surface (current/currentImageId + reloadTags/addExistingTag/
removeTag/createAndAdd) over the anchor. ImageMetaBar gains an optional
`image` prop for the same reason.
Drops the mass/cluster tagger (TagGapPanel deleted; clusterIds/thumbById
removed) — per-image tagging feeds the per-tag reference-embedding centroid
better than bulk ops.
Nav: keep the Explore tab but bare /explore now SEEDS a random image
(GET /api/showcase?limit=1 → /explore/:id) so the tab kick-starts a rabbit
hole; explicit meta.navOrder pins nav order (Explore after Gallery) since
router.getRoutes() doesn't preserve declaration order.
Note: the backend cluster tag-gaps route/service (#94a) is now frontend-orphaned
— left in place; flag for a separate cleanup.

Settings is configuration, not content, but sat mid-row (between Series and
Posts). Pull it out of the centered content links and pin it to the right as a
gear+label, matching the convention that config lives at the right edge. Mobile
is unchanged — Settings stays in the hamburger menu (navRoutes still includes
it). Operator-asked 2026-06-09.

The top nav packed brand + health + pipeline chip + ~7 inline links + an
action slot into one flex row, colliding/overflowing on phones (operator:
'almost unusable'). Below 768px the links now fold into a hamburger v-menu;
below 480px the brand text hides (glyph still brands). Plus the primary
browsing path:
- BulkEditorPanel: fixed 320px -> min(320px, 90vw) so it can't swallow the screen.
- GalleryFilterBar: <600px gives search its own full-width row (its 200px
min-width was jamming the wrapping bar); sort grows.
- GalleryFacetPanel: <480px wraps groups + lets the side-by-side date inputs
grow full-width.
- ArtistsView grid: minmax(min(440px,100%),1fr) so a card never overflows
(single column on phones).
- GalleryView: hide the year/month timeline strip <600px.
ImageViewer already stacks its side panel below the image <900px (left as-is).
Secondary surfaces (Posts/Subscriptions filter bars, SubscriptionsTab table,
SeriesReader, PostCard) still need a mobile pass — follow-up.

New /api/system/activity/summary aggregates scheduler health + per-queue
pending depths + running count + 24h failure count in one cached call (safe
to poll app-wide). PipelineStatusChip lives in the TopNav on every page: a
compact running/queued/failing chip with a scheduler-health dot that expands
to a popover (scheduler, busy queues, counts, link to downloads). Polls the
summary every 8s, paused when backgrounded. Reuses the queue-cache read via
_queues_cached(). + API test for the summary shape.
