Four bot-side UX fixes surfaced by the live smoke:
- Post a brief pointer in the main timeline (a reply to the user's message)
alongside the in-thread proposal card, so proposals aren't missed inside a
thread. Pointer only — approvals still happen in the thread, where the note
is visible (you can't make an informed yes/no without seeing it).
- A bare yes/no typed in the main timeline while a proposal is pending now
gets a "reply in the thread" redirect instead of "couldn't tell what to record."
- Clearer commit confirmations: "Created a new grid entry for X" vs
"Logged a note on X (existing grid entry)."
- Send a blank communication subject when a note is present so the grid's
one-line note summary shows the note text, not the "(Matrix)" label
(provenance stays in source="matrix_intake").
