Errors wait behind a bell

  • When a job source didn't answer, the list page used to pop a notice over the page, and it came back on every reload and every rebuild of the page.
  • Now it waits behind a bell in the header, with a count of unread items, the way a social app shows notifications. Opening the pane marks everything in it read, and nothing pops up.
  • Each item is tied to the fetch it failed in, so rebuilding the page from the same day's data doesn't make an old failure new again. A failure in a later fetch is a new item.
  • The bell is now part of the studio's shared UI kit. Job Scout built it first; the Platform Engineer agent turned it into a kit component and the Art Director agent approved its look, so any project can send its non-urgent problems to a bell instead of a pop-up.
