ratatui's Paragraph with Wrap does full unicode grapheme segmentation
on render — including for scrolled-off content. Cache per-line wrapped
heights on PaneState (recomputed only on width change or new lines),
then slice to only the visible lines before handing to ratatui.
Eliminates O(total_lines) grapheme work per frame, replacing it with
O(viewport_height) — ~30 lines instead of potentially thousands.

budget() called tiktoken on every UI tick, which was the main CPU hog
during rapid key input. Move the cached ContextBudget onto ContextState
and recompute only when entries actually change (push_entry, compact,
restore_from_log).

append_text was the TextDelta streaming handler — replaced by
append_streaming on Agent entries. needs_assistant_marker tracked
turn boundaries for the old message path. target removed from
Agent::turn — routing now determined by entry content.

Streaming text now goes directly to agent entries via append_streaming().
sync_from_agent diffs the growing entry each tick. The streaming entry
is popped when the response completes; build_response_message pushes
the final version.
All status feedback uses RAII ActivityGuards:
- push_activity() for long-running work (thinking, streaming, scoring)
- notify() for instant feedback (compacted, DMN state changes, commands)
- Guards auto-remove on Drop, appending "(complete)" and lingering 5s
- expire_activities() cleans up timed-out notifications on render tick
UiMessage enum reduced to a single Info variant with zero sends.
The channel infrastructure remains for now (Mind/Agent still take
UiSender in signatures) — mechanical cleanup for a follow-up.

Reasoning tokens: dropped for now, will land in context entries later.
Debug sends: converted to dbglog! macro (writes to debug.log).
Activity: now a field on Agent, set directly, read by UI via try_lock.
score_memories_incremental takes agent Arc for activity writes.
UiMessage down to 2 variants: TextDelta, Info.

Status bar reads directly from Agent and MindState on each render tick.
Activity is now a field on Agent — set by agent code directly, read by
UI via try_lock. DmnAnnotation, ContextInfoUpdate, AgentUpdate were
already dead (no senders).
UiMessage down to 4 variants: TextDelta, Reasoning, Debug, Info.

The std::sync::Mutex detour caught every place a MutexGuard lived
across an await point in Agent::turn — the compiler enforced Send
safety that tokio::sync::Mutex silently allows. With those fixed,
switch back to tokio::sync::Mutex (std::sync blocks tokio worker
threads and panics inside the runtime).
Input and command dispatch now live in InteractScreen (chat.rs):
- Enter pushes directly to SharedMindState.input (no app.submitted hop)
- sync_from_agent displays pending input with dimmed color
- Slash command table moved from event_loop.rs to chat.rs
- cmd_switch_model kept as pub fn for tool-initiated switches

An assistant entry can have text + multiple tool calls. route_entry
now returns Vec<(PaneTarget, String, Marker)> — tool calls go to
tools pane, text goes to conversation, all from the same entry.
Pop phase iterates the vec in reverse to pop correct number of
pane items per entry.

Store content lengths of rendered entries. On each tick:
- Generation changed → full pane reset
- Entries removed → pop from tail
- Last entry content length changed → pop and re-render (streaming)
- New entries → route and push
PaneState gains pop_line() for removing the last rendered entry.
This handles streaming (last entry growing), compaction (generation
bump), and normal appends.

PaneTarget enum + route_entry() function: given a ConversationEntry,
returns which pane it belongs to (or None to skip). The sync loop
becomes: detect desync → pop, then route new entries.
Routing: User→Conversation, Assistant→ConversationAssistant,
tool_calls→Tools, Tool results→ToolResult, Memory/System→None.

Route agent entries to correct panes:
- User messages → conversation (cyan, User marker)
- Assistant text → conversation (Assistant marker)
- Assistant tool_calls → tools pane (yellow)
- Tool results → tools pane (truncated at 20 lines)
- Memory/system-reminder entries → skipped
- System role → skipped
Two phases: detect generation change (reset panes if needed),
then route new entries. PaneState is the rendered view of agent
entries, updated incrementally.

InteractScreen holds agent ref, syncs conversation display from
agent.entries() on each tick via blocking_lock(). Tracks generation
counter and entry count to detect compactions and new entries.
Agent gets a generation counter, incremented on compaction and
non-last-entry mutations (age_out_images).
sync_from_agent() is the single path for pane updates. UiMessage
handle_ui_message still exists but will be removed once sync
handles all entry types (streaming, tool calls, DMN).

Build legend string from actual screen labels instead of hardcoded
constant. Computed once at startup via OnceLock, accessible from
all screen draw methods.

InteractScreen in chat.rs owns conversation/autonomous/tools panes,
textarea, input history, scroll state. App is now just shared state
(status, sampling params, agent_state, channel_status, idle_info).
Event loop holds InteractScreen separately for UiMessage routing.
Overlay screens (F2-F5) in screens vec. F-key switching preserves
state across screen changes.
handle_ui_message moved from App to InteractScreen.
handle_key split: global keys on App, screen keys in tick().
draw dispatch eliminated — each screen draws itself.
Co-Authored-By: Kent Overstreet <kent.overstreet@linux.dev>
Convert F2-F5 screens to ScreenView trait with tick() method.
Each screen owns its view state (scroll, selection, expanded).
State persists across screen switches.
- ThalamusScreen: owns sampling_selected, scroll
- ConsciousScreen: owns scroll, selected, expanded
- SubconsciousScreen: owns selected, log_view, scroll
- UnconsciousScreen: owns scroll
Removed from App: Screen enum, debug_scroll, debug_selected,
debug_expanded, agent_selected, agent_log_view, sampling_selected,
set_screen(), per-screen key handling, draw dispatch.
App now only draws the interact (F1) screen. Overlay screens are
drawn by the event loop via ScreenView::tick. F-key routing and
screen instantiation to be wired in event_loop next.
InteractScreen (state-driven, reading from agent entries) is the
next step — will eliminate the input display race condition.
