+{# host_agent widget — fleet glance. One horizontal row per host, zebra-striped
+   so adjacent hosts read as distinct groupings: health dot + host name on the
+   left, metric cells (cpu/mem/disk/load) each with a trend sparkline laid out
+   horizontally on the right. The name wraps (never hard-truncated) but the row
+   stays horizontal. #}
