There is no persistent indicator of pending approvals, failed pipelines, or other urgent alerts in the dashboard header. Users must navigate to the dashboard overview or into individual products to discover issues. The breadcrumb header has a Cmd+K trigger and sidebar toggle, but nothing for live alerts. For a platform that runs autonomous agents 24/7, missed approvals or failures are high-stakes.
Category: navigation File: src/components/breadcrumb-header.tsx Recommendation: Add a notification bell icon button to the breadcrumb header (right-aligned, next to the Cmd+K trigger) that shows a red badge with the count of pending approvals + failed pipelines. On click, open a popover/sheet with a scrollable list of actionable items grouped by urgency, each linking directly to the relevant resource. Use the existing tRPC endpoints (api.approval.listPending, pipeline.list with status=failed) to populate it, polling every 30 seconds.
