The top of an answer is one line that says what the Coach is doing right
now (thinking, fetching a metric, summarising the readings, writing),
live from the activity frames, with the seconds so far. It never opens
by itself: the trail stays closed while the turn runs, when it asks,
when it stops early, after the answer and after a reload, and opens
only on a tap. Once the answer is in, the line settles into one summary
of lookups and seconds. A table read during the turn shows as a
one-line preview with a sparkline until the answer takes it over.
Clarifying choices, follow-ups and the answers to a fact or plan
proposal share one pattern: quiet pills in the answer's column whose
tap sends the label as the person's own message. The clarification
card and the in-thread plan card are gone. A fact the Coach kept is one
meta line with Undo, an assumption one line with Change. The remember
button on a message now keeps it in the Coach's memory.
