Owner report 2026-10-16 (video while signing in to agy on production, 492e1505a binary + f210a4f25 web): the indicator dot in a terminal window's machine pill ("kayg@10.69.69.125 · shell ●") keeps flickering.

Measured from the owner's 120 fps recording (12×12 px at the dot, luma per frame): the dot sits at Y≈80 (grey) and jumps to Y≈133 for 1–2 frames about every 14 frames, ≈8.5 flashes/s, steadily over 6.5 s while agy's sign-in TUI is on screen (it redraws continuously). So something toggles the dot's state on every output burst / redraw.

Expected: the dot shows a stable state; it never blinks with output. (TASTE: results never animate; nothing flickers.)
