Owner

The core conversation surface, per docs/designs/draft/frontend.md. The centered column is canonical and embraced — augmented, never replaced. Depends on the token core (#5).

Checklist

Centered column (~72ch prose measure) rendering the conversation's current_path
[-] Markdown surfaces: prose, tables, math-ish content, code blocks with arborium highlight classes — Will be completed in a follow-up (#14, math-ish part)
[-] Collapsible reasoning/thinking and tool-call blocks, collapsed by default — Will be completed in a follow-up (#14, tool-call part)
Streaming: append-only render with CSS containment, quiet live indicator, no typing theater; virtualized long conversations; scroll stable while reading history (no forced scroll-to-bottom unless already at the edge)
Hover-revealed message toolbar — Copy / Edit / Regenerate, identical position and vocabulary on every message, keyboard-reachable
Branch pager on edited/regenerated turns ("‹ 2 of 3 ›"), present but quiet
Bridge surface for edit/regenerate driving the conversation tree (sibling TurnNode creation; today only start_stream exists)
User-cancelled streams settle into a cancelled visual state without surfacing an error (per error-visibility.md)
Empty state teaches the interface
