Task: Build the feed browser

(Describe what user-visible-or-internal change this task produces.)

(Implementation strategy. Written when work starts; key decisions are distilled into the parent story's * Decisions at close, but the plan itself stays — it is the historical record of what we did.)

Every number this task claims about a tree, with the command that produced it and the commit it was measured at. A number without both is not a measurement, because a clean-up record describes a tree and trunk moves under a branch: a consumer count, a gate's component count and a suite's size all change with no code changing, and the reader of a bare number cannot tell which tree it came from. Where the raw output matters, put it in an evidence/ file beside the task and name that file in the Command column.

Manual QA scenarios (scaffolded via compass add test_scenario) that verify this task. Link new ones here as they're created; the scenario doc itself links back via its "Verifies task" field.

Built in three parts. The Synthetic folder, the feed overview and the feed tree came first. They are now one screen, Synthetic, with a Dashboard and a Feed tree, which lists both kinds of feed and starts and stops a selection. See the tasks that built each part.
