Account Display UX Improvement
Proposal to show both active account and session account in navbar
Output
Account Display UX Improvement
Great observation!
You're right - showing only the "active account" is confusing when your current session is running on a different account.
Current vs Proposed
CURRENT (CONFUSING)
Account dropdown shows:
blueboy ✓
But session is still on meichtry!
PROPOSED (CLEAR)
Account dropdown shows:
Session: meichtry
Next: blueboy ← new
Implementation Options
Option A: Two-line display in dropdown
┌───────────────────────┐ │ Session: meichtry │ │ Next: blueboy ● │ └───────────────────────┘
Option B: Warning badge when mismatched
┌──────────────────────────────┐ │ meichtry switch pending │ └──────────────────────────────┘
Option C: Auto-prompt to refresh when switched
⚠ Switched to blueboy. Refresh to use new account.
Data Required
✓ Active account: Already available via /accounts API
○ Session account: Need to track which account the session was spawned under
Recommendation: Option A (two-line) is clearest. Option C (auto-prompt) is good UX but more invasive. Want me to implement one of these?
