Read #115710 Pick up a Lab task

Most members describe the desktop app (and in a few cases web/dashboard/TUI) not showing sessions or messages created or appended externally, such as by Telegram, Discord, Signal, or cron gateways, without a restart or refresh. They include bug reports, a feature request, and proposed fixes involving polling or refreshing session lists and transcripts; one member concerns a separate duplicate/lost assistant reply stream cluster.

How this cluster was grouped

Link evidence (partly structural links): some members are connected by structural evidence (shared changed files, or a closing/superseded reference); the rest are joined by an automated relevance judgement over their text.
Members outside that structural core may belong to a different underlying problem.
Pairwise link density 0.08: the share of item pairs that carry a link, counting a structural link in full and a relevance-only link at 0.36. 1.00 means every pair is linked.
