feat(followup): implement PLAN-FOLLOWUP.md gap fixes

Complete implementation of 7 slices addressing E2E testing gaps:

Slice 0+1: Wire Actions + ReasonPrompt
- FocusView now uses useActions hook instead of direct act() calls
- Added pendingAction state pattern for skip/defer/complete actions
- ReasonPrompt integration with proper confirm/cancel flow
- Tags support in DecisionEntry interface

Slice 2: Drag Reorder UI
- Installed @dnd-kit (core, sortable, utilities)
- QueueView with DndContext, SortableContext, verticalListSortingStrategy
- SortableQueueItem wrapper component using useSortable hook
- pendingReorder state with ReasonPrompt for reorder reasons
- Cmd+Up/Down keyboard shortcuts for accessibility
- Fixed: Store item ID in PendingReorder to avoid stale queue reference

Slice 3: System Tray Integration
- tray.rs with TrayState, setup_tray, toggle_window_visibility
- Menu with Show/Quit items
- Left-click toggles window visibility
- update_tray_badge command updates tooltip with item count
- Frontend wiring in AppShell

Slice 4: E2E Test Updates
- Fixed test selectors for InboxView, Queue badge
- Exposed inbox store for test seeding

Slice 5: Staleness Visualization
- Already implemented in computeStaleness() with tests

Slice 6: Quick Wiring
- onStartBatch callback wired to QueueView
- SyncStatus rendered in nav area
- SettingsView renders Settings component

Slice 7: State Persistence
- settings-store with hydrate/update methods
- Tauri backend integration via read_settings/write_settings
- AppShell hydrates settings on mount

Bug fixes from code review:
- close_bead now has error isolation (try/catch) so decision logging
  and queue advancement continue even if bead close fails
- PendingReorder stores item ID to avoid stale queue reference

E2E tests for all ACs (tests/e2e/followup-acs.spec.ts):
- AC-F1: Drag reorder (4 tests)
- AC-F2: ReasonPrompt integration (7 tests)
- AC-F5: Staleness visualization (3 tests)
- AC-F6: Batch mode (2 tests)
- AC-F7: SyncStatus (2 tests)
- ReasonPrompt behavior (3 tests)

Tests: 388 frontend + 119 Rust + 32 E2E all passing

+# Mission Control - Followup Implementation Plan
+
+> **Created:** 2026-02-26
+> **Status:** Gaps identified from E2E testing pass
+
+## Overview
+
+E2E testing against PLAN.md Acceptance Criteria revealed ~85% feature completeness. This document tracks the remaining gaps to reach full feature parity.
+
+---
+
+## Gap 1: Drag Reorder UI (AC-004)
+
+**Current State:**
+- `reorderQueue(fromIndex, toIndex)` exists in `focus-store.ts`
+- Tests pass for store logic
+- No drag-and-drop UI in QueueView
+
+**Required:**
+- Install DnD library (recommend `@dnd-kit/core` + `@dnd-kit/sortable`)
+- Wrap QueueView sections with DndContext
+- Make QueueItem components draggable
+- Wire drag end handler to call `reorderQueue`
+- Log reorder decision via `log_decision` command
+
+**Acceptance Criteria (from PLAN.md):**
+> AC-004: Given user is in Queue View, when user drags an item to new position, then order is persisted AND decision is logged with context AND user is prompted for optional reason.
+
+---
+
+## Gap 2: System Tray Integration (AC-007)
+
+**Current State:**
+- `TrayPopover` component fully implemented
+- Shows THE ONE THING, queue/inbox counts, quick actions
+- **Not wired to Tauri system tray**
+
+**Required:**
+- Add `tauri-plugin-system-tray` dependency (if not present)
+- Create tray icon in `src-tauri/src/lib.rs`
+- Wire tray click to show popover window
+- Update badge count on tray icon
+
+**Acceptance Criteria (from PLAN.md):**
+> AC-007: Given MC is running, when there are pending items, then menu bar icon shows badge with count AND clicking icon opens popover AND popover shows THE ONE THING and queue summary.
+
+---
+
+## Gap 3: ReasonPrompt Integration
+
+**Current State:**
+- `ReasonPrompt` component fully implemented with quick tags
+- Supports: Blocking, Urgent, Context switch, Energy, Flow tags
+- **Not wired to any actions**
+
+**Required:**
+- Wire ReasonPrompt to show before significant actions (set_focus, skip, defer)
+- Pass reason and tags to `log_decision` command
+- Make prompt optional (user can skip)
+
+**Acceptance Criteria (from PLAN.md):**
+> AC-005: Given user performs any significant action (set_focus, reorder, defer, skip, complete), when action is executed, then decision_log.jsonl is appended with: timestamp, action, bead_id, reason (if provided), tags, full context snapshot.
+
+---
+
+## Gap 4: E2E Test Updates
+
+**Current State:**
+- 2 Playwright tests failing due to outdated expectations
+- Tests expect old placeholder text / selectors are too broad
+
+**Required:**
+- Update "shows Inbox placeholder" test to verify InboxView content
+- Update "Queue tab shows item count badge" test with specific selector
+
+---
+
+## Priority Order
+
+1. **Drag Reorder UI** - Core AC, frequently used interaction
+2. **ReasonPrompt Integration** - Enables learning from user decisions
+3. **System Tray Integration** - Polish feature, improves UX
+4. **E2E Test Updates** - Maintenance, not blocking
+
+---
+
+## Technical Notes
+
+### DnD Library Choice
+
+`@dnd-kit` is recommended over `react-beautiful-dnd` because:
+- Active maintenance (rbd is deprecated)
+- Better TypeScript support
+- Works with React 18/19 concurrent features
+- Smaller bundle size
+
+### System Tray Considerations
+
+- macOS: Native menu bar item with badge
+- Windows: System tray icon
+- Linux: Varies by DE, may need fallback
+
+### Decision Log Schema
+
+Existing schema from `src-tauri/src/data/state.rs`:
+```rust
+pub struct Decision {
+    pub timestamp: String,
+    pub action: DecisionAction,
+    pub bead_id: String,
+    pub reason: Option<String>,
+    pub tags: Vec<String>,
+    pub context: DecisionContext,
+}
+```
+
+The backend is ready to receive tags - just need frontend to send them.

+# Mission Control
+
+An ADHD-centric personal productivity hub that unifies GitLab activity, beads task tracking, and manual task management into a single native interface.
+
+**Core principle:** Surface THE ONE THING you should be doing right now.
+
+This is NOT a dashboard of everything. It's a trusted advisor that understands your work and helps you decide what matters.
+
+## Features
+
+### Focus View
+The primary interface displays the single most important item you should be working on. When no focus is set, it suggests the top item from your queue. Actions available:
+- **Start** - Open the associated URL and begin working
+- **Defer** - Postpone for 1 hour or until tomorrow
+- **Skip** - Remove from today's queue
+
+### Queue View
+A prioritized list of all your work items. Filter by type, search across titles, and batch-select items for bulk operations. Drag to reorder priorities.
+
+### Inbox
+Triage incoming items from GitLab or manual captures. Items flow in, you decide where they go.
+
+### Quick Capture
+Global hotkey (`Ctrl+Shift+Space`) to capture a thought instantly. Type it, hit enter, and it becomes a bead. Triage later.
+
+### Batch Mode
+When you have multiple items of the same type (e.g., code reviews), batch them together for focused flow sessions with time estimates.
+
+### GitLab-Beads Bridge
+Automatic synchronization creates beads from GitLab events:
+- MR review requests
+- Issue assignments
+- Mentions in discussions
+- Comments on your MRs
+
+The bridge tracks mappings, handles deduplication, and recovers from partial sync failures.
+
+### Decision Logging
+Every action (start, defer, skip, complete) is logged with context: time of day, queue size, and optional reasoning. This data enables future pattern learning.
+
+### bv Triage Integration
+Surfaces AI-powered recommendations from `bv --robot-triage`:
+- Top picks based on graph analysis
+- Quick wins (low effort, available now)
+- Blockers to clear (high unblock impact)
+
+## Keyboard Shortcuts
+
+| Shortcut | Action |
+|----------|--------|
+| `Cmd+1` | Focus view |
+| `Cmd+2` | Queue view |
+| `Cmd+3` | Inbox |
+| `Cmd+4` | Debug view |
+| `Cmd+,` | Settings |
+| `Ctrl+Shift+Space` | Quick capture |
+
+Shortcuts use `Ctrl` instead of `Cmd` on non-macOS platforms.
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+Frontend (React 19 + Vite)     Backend (Tauri/Rust)
+        |                              |
+        |---- IPC (invoke) ----------->|
+        |                              |
+        |                     CLI Traits (mockable)
+        |                              |
+        |                     lore --robot (GitLab)
+        |                     br (beads tasks)
+        |                     bv --robot-* (triage)
+```
+
+Mission Control shells out to CLIs rather than importing them as libraries. This keeps boundaries clean and avoids schema coupling.
+
+## Tech Stack
+
+| Layer | Technology |
+|-------|------------|
+| Shell | Tauri 2.0 (Rust backend) |
+| Frontend | React 19 + Vite |
+| Styling | Tailwind CSS |
+| Animations | Framer Motion |
+| State | Zustand + TanStack Query |
+| IPC | Tauri commands + events |
+
+## External Dependencies
+
+MC requires these CLIs to be installed and available in PATH:
+
+- **lore** - GitLab data sync (`lore --robot me`)
+- **br** - Beads task management (`br create`, `br close`)
+- **bv** - Beads triage engine (`bv --robot-triage`, `bv --robot-next`)
+
+## Local State
+
+All MC-specific state lives in `~/.local/share/mc/`:
+
+| File | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `gitlab_bead_map.json` | Maps GitLab events to bead IDs (deduplication) |
+| `decision_log.jsonl` | Append-only log of all user decisions with context |
+| `state.json` | Current focus, queue order, UI state |
+| `settings.json` | User preferences |
+
+## Development
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- Node.js 20+
+- Rust (latest stable)
+- Tauri CLI (`npm install -g @tauri-apps/cli`)
+
+### Commands
+
+```bash
+# Install dependencies
+npm install
+
+# Start development (frontend only)
+npm run dev
+
+# Start development (frontend + backend)
+npm run tauri:dev

+# Run tests
+npm run test           # Vitest unit tests
+npm run test:watch     # Vitest watch mode
+npm run test:coverage  # With coverage
+npm run test:e2e       # Playwright e2e tests
+cargo test             # Rust tests
+
+# Lint
+npm run lint           # ESLint
+cargo clippy -- -D warnings  # Rust lints
+
+# Build
+npm run build          # Frontend only
+npm run tauri:build    # Full app bundle
+```
+
+### Project Structure
+
+```

+  components/      # React components
+  hooks/           # Custom React hooks
+  lib/             # Utilities, type definitions
+  stores/          # Zustand state stores

+  components/      # Component tests
+  lib/             # Library tests
+  e2e/             # Playwright tests
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+The codebase uses test-driven development with trait-based mocking:
+
+- **Frontend:** Vitest + React Testing Library for component tests
+- **Backend:** Rust unit tests with mock CLI traits
+- **E2E:** Playwright for full application testing
+
+CLI integrations use traits (`LoreCli`, `BeadsCli`, `BvCli`) that can be mocked in tests, keeping tests fast and deterministic without external dependencies.
+
+## Design Principles
+
+Mission Control follows ADHD-centric design principles:
+
+- **The One Thing** - UI's primary job is surfacing THE single most important item
+- **Achievable Inbox Zero** - Every view has a clearable state
+- **Time Decay Visibility** - Age is visceral (fresh=bright, old=amber/red)
+- **Batch Mode for Flow** - Group similar tasks for focused sessions
+- **Quick Capture, Trust the System** - One hotkey, type it, gone
+- **Ambient Awareness, Not Interruption** - Notifications are visible but never modal
