The UI-only part of #9193 by @klopez4212, split out so it can land
without the Activity sync changes.
- Activity moves from a row in the Home list to a bell button in the
Home header, with an unread dot driven by the existing Activity feed and
read state.
- Home filter capsules match native iOS and Android widths, with a
subtle outline on Android when the header collapses.
- Home section spacing is tighter.
Left out: the reconnect rewrite in #9193's last commit (live events
applied in place, no rebuild on reconnect, fatal fallback reads). The
Activity provider is unchanged from main. Channel and Solo rows keep
their bottom padding so they stay at the 44 pt minimum tap height.
### Validation
- Kenny's added tests: `inbox_unread_provider_test` (unread dot) and the
Home page bell and filter width tests.
- Full mobile suite: all pass except 11 push and notification-toggle
tests that fail identically on an unchanged checkout in this
environment.
- Automated simulator run (iPhone 17 Pro, iOS 27) of a build combining
this PR with its sibling split: Home rows measure 44 pt, the bell opens
Activity and shows its dot after a row is marked unread,
type/sender/Unread filters each narrow the feed, a row opens its
conversation, Search results scroll under the fade, and filter labels
fit at the largest text size. Screenshots are in Buzz rather than here
because they show internal test data. Android was covered only by widget
tests.
### Before merge
- [x] Automated simulator run of Home, the bell, Activity and channel
navigation, with screenshots.

Modernizes New Channel and New DM with full-height forms and X/Create or
X/checkmark actions. iOS uses UIKit sheets throughout; Android uses the
Flutter fallback. Channel menus default to Ongoing/Public, and native
menu previews lift only the trailing value while labels stay fixed.
Channel names disable automatic capitalization, autocorrect, and
spellcheck; both platforms use descriptive placeholders.
Preserves recipient search and limits, creation error retries, and
navigation after native dismissal.
Validation: 4,154 mobile tests passed (38 skipped), auxiliary suites and
static checks passed; iOS device/simulator and Android builds passed.
Exercised menus, dismissal, DM search and selection in the simulator and
Android form behavior on Pixel; iPhone UI tested and approved by the
author.

Replace the mobile Agents sheet with a full-page directory of verified
owned agents. Add dedicated creation and avatar pages with
catalog-backed model selection, reuse the profile emoji/photo/camera
controls, and expose Builderbot model settings while labeling desktop
agents “Manage on desktop.” Share one account-scoped model catalog
across editable cards and retries. Choose Bestie from the agent profile
using the shared encrypted main-agent record (text-only action, filled
star once selected), and move confirmed deletion to a top-left trash
control with native iOS glass. Include uploaded avatars in owner
registrations so desktop can display them.
Validation: mobile analysis and all 3,958 hosted-enabled app tests
passed; default-build tests run by the push hook. Earlier iPhone build
installed and iterated with the user; the current iOS build succeeds,
but final changes still need a device pass. Independent review found no
new blockers. Actual camera capture and live Bestie sync remain
unconfirmed; the existing shared `main-agent` wire format and Bestie
terminology are retained.

Align outgoing messages and galleries to the right, reclaim the outgoing
avatar gutter, and match desktop calendar dividers with balanced
spacing. Standardize navigation and sheet icons at 24 points, restore
native Edit/Done styling, and align section menus with trailing channel
indicators.
Validation: clean analysis; 3,513 mobile tests and push-configuration
checks passed; iPhone Release build installed and tested by the owner.
Includes regression coverage for message placement, date spacing,
gallery direction, and section alignment.

## 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.
