## Summary
- Keep selected sidebar rows regular by default; manually unread rows
become bold immediately.
- Apply a clearer dark-mode hierarchy: standard inactive rows at 75%,
muted rows at 45%, and unread rows at full emphasis.
- Keep hover text color stable while retaining the selected-row and
unread cues.
## Validation
- `pnpm typecheck`
- `pnpm build:e2e`
- Playwright: sidebar badge and channel-mute coverage
## Screenshots

## Summary
- Make channel join/leave activity use the selected inline avatar-stack
treatment.
- Group related membership activity for one hour and preserve
profile/overflow-name interactions.
- Restore the virtualized day-divider handoff and align the sticky date
behavior with the message timeline.
## Validation
- `pnpm check`
- `pnpm test`
- `cargo test --manifest-path desktop/src-tauri/Cargo.toml`
- Visual desktop screenshot captured with seeded membership activity

## Summary
- show relevant unread threads and active agents when hovering a channel
- keep channel-level unread emphasis separate from thread activity dots
- make activity rows navigate to the thread and remove demo-only data
## Test plan
- `just ci` (all stages passed except the final duplicate native check,
which ran out of disk after its earlier clippy pass)
- `cd desktop && pnpm exec playwright test
tests/e2e/channel-activity-popover.spec.ts --project=smoke`
