What's Wrong?
Previously, conversations list inside VSCode extensions displayed a dot status indicator:
- Green for "working" / "thinking"
- Blue for "need input"
- Gray for "stopped"
The new conversation list does NOT include this badge.
What Should Happen?
Aside from the specific semantic, this distinction was extremely useful to identify work during multiple sessions.
