The footer's bridge indicator now shows a real status value instead of just on or off

What

  • The status/footer line's bridge indicator used to render only when a column-width/boolean gate was true, passing just a bridgeSelected flag. Now it always computes a status value and renders the bridge chip whenever that status isn't null, passing a status field to the bridge component instead of gating on column width.
  • As part of this, the status-line render function no longer destructures ideSelection or mcpClients from its props, and no longer computes or renders an IDE-colored badge.

Why This makes the bridge indicator reflect a real connection status rather than a simple on/off flag, though it also means the footer no longer shows a separate IDE badge.

How sure we are
Something disagreesSomething we can check disagrees with this entry, or the writer said they could not settle it.
The writer flagged doubtWhat specific status values the indicator can now show, beyond the previous boolean, is not specified.
