The assistant carried its own bar above the layout, on top of the blue app
header that both pages now share. On desktop it held a visually-hidden title, a
mobile-only drawer button and a status pill — so it was mostly dead space, and it
made the assistant taller than the app page it is supposed to match.
The bar is gone. The ready/busy indicator moved into the composer footer, next to
the work it describes, and the drawer button floats on phones rather than
occupying a strip the desktop layout does not have. The rail now sticks to the
top of the layout instead of 52px below a bar that no longer exists.
The menu toggle used fa-table-columns, a split-pane glyph that does not read as
"menu". Both copies now use fa-bars and rotate when collapsed to show which way
they will act.
