dsh-favicon-status

When you run several dsh web sessions across multiple tabs, pushing a tab to the background turns it into a blind spot — you lose track of which task is still executing, which is sitting on you for approval, and which quietly finished. dsh-favicon-status turns the browser tab favicon into a living status ring: proportional wedges in blue (running), amber (waiting on the user), and green (finished) give you an at-a-glance readout even at 16 pixels, while the original favicon graphic stays visible in the ring's center.

The animation is driven by wall-clock time rather than frame counting, so even when the browser throttles timers in a hidden tab, each repaint lands on the correct rotation angle. While any session is active the ring spins clockwise around a fixed trailing gap that keeps the motion readable at tab-bar size; once everything settles the ring closes into a full circle and the spin stops. Mixed states split the ring in a fixed order (running, waiting, done) so the proportions are legible rather than shuffled. A configurable done-visibility window (default 30 s) keeps the green reminder visible in a backgrounded tab before reverting to the original favicon.

The plugin is entirely browser-side: it never touches prompts, message streams, tool results, or provider requests, so it has zero impact on model behavior or KV cache. Colors, spin period, and the done window are validated config fields overridable from cordis.yml. It is built for users who park dsh web tabs in the background while juggling several sessions — the tab itself becomes a traffic light, and you stop switching back just to check whether work is done.
