Task 05: Prove sidebar activity sorting

Add production-build browser regressions for the saved option, stable activity order, persistence, and phone geometry. Finish the change-aware verification gates.

Acceptance

• Desktop proves Last activity order and row time survive save and reload. A provider-only refresh does not reorder activity.
• Mobile proves the same saved option and order from the task-switcher drawer.
• Mobile assertions cover touch interaction, viewport containment, the task-list scroll owner, and zero document horizontal overflow.

Verification

cd apps && pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
cd apps/web && pnpm e2e:run tests/task/sidebar-filter.spec.ts -- --grep "last activity"
cd apps/web && pnpm e2e:run --no-build --project mobile-chrome tests/task/mobile-sidebar-views.spec.ts -- --grep "last activity"
make -C apps/backend test lint build
cd apps/web && pnpm run typecheck && pnpm run i18n:check && pnpm run i18n:ratchet
cd apps && pnpm --filter @kandev/web lint

Risks

• Seed distinct activity milestones instead of relying on fixed sleeps.
• Scope portaled selectors to the active desktop or mobile surface.
• Confirm Playwright discovers one desktop test and one mobile test before treating the runs as evidence.

Result

• Desktop discovery found one targeted test, then the managed production E2E run passed. It verified Last activity ordering, row timestamp mapping, saved view persistence after reload, and stable order after two provider-only PR refreshes.
• Mobile discovery found one targeted test, then the managed mobile-chrome E2E run passed. It verified touch selection, saved-view persistence, drawer containment, the task-list scroll owner, and zero document horizontal overflow.
• The desktop fixture explicitly uses the existing None group so provider association does not intentionally change repository grouping while the test measures activity ordering.
