Mobile New chat now opens directly with the synced Bestie selected. The
first send creates and names the chat; leaving an empty draft creates
nothing. New and existing Solo chats can select or clear a workspace
from the header popover, with a checkmark for the active choice and a No
Workspace option. Workspace and agent controls have separate iOS glass
surfaces, Bestie stays at the far right, and Back uses a chevron. The
agent sheet fits its list, with scrolling for long lists. Workspace
creation stays in the Home New menu.
The New menu groups Solo above Team. Android expands across the full
control row; iOS keeps its native menu while Search and Bestie merge
into New through Liquid Glass, with synchronized icon motion and the
residual glass fading away. Empty workspaces use a compact, muted
message.
Validation: 4,055 mobile tests passed (34 skipped), static analysis
passed, and native menu checks passed. Earlier physical-device previews
and the iPhone New-menu animation were visually approved before this
consolidation.
This PR consolidates the controls previously developed in #8891 into the
existing draft/first-send implementation. The New menu animations,
attachment handling, and durable retries remain in this PR. The combined
controls have widget interaction coverage; the combined build has not
yet had a new physical-device walkthrough.
Current combined controls below are Android Flutter widget renders with
fixture data, not device screenshots. Images are GitHub attachments
only.

Originally stacked on #8375, now merged. Rebased onto main.
Polishes the onboarding landing page, community-link entry, and recovery
sheets. Profile setup uses a consistent sheet with a larger avatar,
inline display name, and draft photo/emoji/animated editing; iOS uses
native controls and coordinated avatar/sheet transitions.
Validation: mobile analysis, full tests, and normal pre-push checks
passed after rebase. Prior iOS build and device walkthrough passed;
native validation was not repeated after this rebase. Snapshots omitted
as requested.

## Summary
Polish mobile Home and Solo: group Search/Inbox beside a separate
profile avatar, move Inbox and Settings to bottom-up pages with Close
controls, and place tabs opposite the plus/compose action. Morph plus to
compose clockwise when entering Solo and reverse counterclockwise when
returning Home, with a directional quarter-turn of the icon inside a
level button and a subtle scale pulse, respecting reduced motion. Align
Search’s Close control with Inbox, simplify its placeholder, and
initialize selected filter contrast correctly. Collapse the plus menu
when leaving Home. Center Solo’s native-glass New chat empty state and
keep it stationary behind the keyboard.
Standardize Tabler icons and neutral backgrounds, retain SF Back/Close
on iOS, use native Liquid Glass headers, tab container, and actions
(solid grey selected tab, slightly darker on iOS) on iOS and black
actions on Android, and smooth the expanded menu corners. Repair native
header safe-area/return layout and compose movement after cancellation.
### Related issue
None found for this UI refinement; follows #8337.
### Testing
- Formatting, analysis, full mobile suite: 3,487 passed, 4 skipped; 3
push-configuration tests passed. File-size checks passed.
- Base UI built and installed on Pixel and iPhone in place. Pixel
navigation/New chat cancellation checked. Subsequent glass and rotation
refinements are previewed on iPhone; motion feel awaits human
confirmation.
- Draft pending human confirmation of the final Settings entrance/return
behavior on iPhone.

## Summary
Preview buzz-app's Tabler icon style in the mobile app, replacing
app-drawn Lucide glyphs across channels, messages, activity, search, and
settings. A shared `BuzzIcons` mapping uses the bundled Tabler 3.46.0
outline font, matching buzz-app's version, with its MIT license and
source documented.
Native UIKit controls retain SF Symbols. The former 300/500 navigation
glyphs use Tabler's standard outline; existing selection colors and
labels remain.
### Related issue
No matching Tabler mobile migration issue or PR found. Related native
iOS controls: #8055.
### Testing
- Pre-push mobile analysis, formatting, file-size checks, and the full
mobile test suite passed.
- 194 focused widget tests passed, including channels, home, search,
settings, and message content.
- Light and dark community-settings renders inspected.
- Signed iPhone Release build succeeded; installed and launched as Buzz
Tabler on a physical iPhone.
- Full `just ci` attempted; stopped during Rust clippy compilation
because the Mac ran low on disk space. Full repository validation is not
claimed.
