tui: async REST api client — stop blocking the event loop (Etap 3) ...

The terminal client's REST helpers were synchronous (httpx.Client); every
caller inside the Textual event loop (attach/switch/resume/profile/stop) blocked
the whole TUI for the duration of each network round-trip — the spinner froze,
input stopped responding, the screen did not repaint. Move the network layer to
async and a shared pooled client:

- api.py: all 7 helpers are now `async def` over a single lazily-created
  httpx.AsyncClient (connection pooling) — awaits yield the loop while a request
  is in flight, so the TUI never blocks on the network.
- tui_app.py + commands/builtin.py: every `api.*` call site is now `await`-ed
  (all already ran in async workers / execute). _stop_stream_worker drops the
  dead `iscoroutine` check (api.stop_session is async, the await is real).
- cli.py: _resolve_session_id and _handle_command await api.*; _run_raw wraps
  the resolve + run in asyncio.run(_run_raw_async) so the sync click entrypoint
  stays unchanged. Removed the now-unused _run_one_shot wrapper.
- sessions_picker.on_mount: list_sessions runs in a worker (run_worker) instead
  of blocking on_mount — a slow/unreachable backend no longer hangs the modal;
  the input is focusable immediately and the list populates when the request
  returns.

Tests: every api mock across 6 client test files is now an `async def` fake
(test_tui_app, test_chat_panel, test_sessions_picker, test_terminal_client,
test_tui_export, test_input_box); the sessions picker tests use an async
_raise_not_found helper for the 404 path. Full suite: 939 passed, 1 skipped.

tui: code-review Etap 1 — crash/injection/reconnect fixes + drop artifact renderer ...

Point fixes from the full TUI/terminal-client code review (docs/code_review_tui.md),
each with a covering test:

- command_palette: guard on_list_view_selected against IndexError when the
  filter is empty and the placeholder row is selected.
- cli /profile: read session_id (not the absent "id") from the server — the
  handler no longer KeyErrors.
- todo_list: escape task text/validation/index/milestone before interpolating
  into rich markup so a task like "fix [bug]" no longer breaks the line styling.
- builtin /help: drop bold markup tags from status content — StatusRenderer
  builds a literal Text() that would show the tags as literal square brackets.
- tui_app on_user_submitted: always enqueue when a bridge exists (the input loop
  buffers across reconnect) instead of dropping the message on connected=False.
- chat_model stream_start: also reset _current_thinking so a dropped turn (no
  thinking_end) does not glue the next turn's reasoning onto the old block.
- todo renderer update: coerce validation to str before .strip() so a non-string
  JSON value does not AttributeError.
- renderers: remove the unused ArtifactRenderer (no production path emits
  type=artifact — TUI shows files via the OS); keep the diff renderer test.

permissions: remove broken client-side gate; add backend design doc ...

The terminal-TUI permission gate was a race: _execute_tools_with_sink
emits ToolStarted and starts the tool on the backend immediately, so by
the time the client dialog appeared the destructive action had already
run -- 'deny' could only stop the session, not un-execute the tool. It
also existed only in the terminal TUI (webclient/android had nothing),
and the system-prompt 'Strict Confirmation' nudge was an unreliable
duplicate.

Remove the broken machinery for a clean slate and plan the real
replacement from zero:

- delete clients/terminal/tui/permissions.py, screens/permission_dialog.py
  and their tests
- strip tui_app.py (engine, _deny_tool, _show_permission_dialog,
  _confirm_shell_command, _stop_session_worker, on_permission_request,
  tool_started gate) and the PermissionRequest TUI event; !cmd now runs
  directly (user-typed, no agent gate)
- drop the 'Strict Confirmation' prompt rule from navi_code/developer/
  tool_developer
- add docs/permissions.md: authoritative backend gate design (engine +
  registry + event + endpoint + agent gate + postgres policy + global
  rules config, sub-agents gated) -- design only, not yet implemented
- update docs/index.md, navi_code_cli.md, profiles.md, testing.md

Until Phase 1 lands there is no destructive-action confirmation -- a
conscious period without the false security of the old race-gate.

Navi Code TUI: unify session commands on shared workers; /switch hybrid ...

Route /new, /sessions, and /switch through shared app-side logic instead of
each command reimplementing the switch path:
- _open_sessions_picker(): pushes SessionsPickerScreen and wires the select
  callback to _switch_session_worker / _create_new_session_worker. Both
  /sessions and /switch (no/ambiguous arg) use it.
- /new -> _create_new_session_worker (was: inline create + attach + clear).
- /switch <prefix>: resolve to a single navi_code session (exact id, then
  prefix match) and switch directly via _switch_session_worker; no/ambiguous/
  unknown arg opens the picker pre-filtered to what was typed. This removes
  the latent clear()-after-attach bug from the old SwitchCommand (clear erased
  the history that attach_session had just replayed).
- SessionsPickerScreen gains initial_query to open pre-filtered.

Navi Code TUI: sessions picker for /sessions (navi_code, full switch) ...

Replace the chat-printed session list with a modal picker:
- SessionsPickerScreen lists only navi_code-profile sessions (filtered by
  settings.default_profile_id), with a filter input, a top "✚ New session"
  row, and the current session marked. Up/Down + Enter to pick, Esc cancels.
- /sessions pushes the screen. Selecting an existing session runs
  _switch_session_worker (persist via StateManager + attach_session, which
  replays history and restarts the WS bridge — no chat_panel.clear() after,
  since load_history already replaces the chat and clearing would erase the
  replayed history). The "New session" row runs _create_new_session_worker.

Navi Code TUI: fix input box layout, command palette duplicate IDs, status renderer, and WS input loop ...

- clients/terminal/tui/widgets/input_box.py: switch Horizontal to Vertical with width: 100% for Input so it renders and accepts input in real terminals; add refresh on Input.Changed.
- clients/terminal/tui/screens/command_palette.py: remove fixed ListItem IDs to avoid DuplicateIds on fast filter.
- clients/terminal/tui/chat_model.py + renderers/status.py + widgets/chat_panel.py: render backend status events as dim system messages instead of raw dicts.
- clients/terminal/tui/ws_bridge.py: start NaviWebSocketClient.input_loop so enqueued user messages are actually sent to the backend.
- clients/terminal/tui/tui_app.py: focus InputBox synchronously in on_mount so typing works immediately.
- tests/clients/test_tui_app.py: regression test for visible input text.

Navi Code TUI: fix Phase 4 review critical/medium issues ...

- PermissionEngine: always-deny returns None via check(); is_always_deny() exposed for explicit rejection; default rules for code_exec/ssh_exec/shell; extract_target() made public.
- ShellRunner: set ShellResult.truncated when output is actually truncated.
- File refs: restrict paths to base_dir/home, block sensitive files/dirs, skip binary, support glob brackets, shared guess_language.
- Permission dialog: deny now renders synthetic tool_call before stopping; shell ! commands require permission with always-allow/deny persistence.
- Tests: add permission tests, fix file_refs/shell tests, add __init__.py to fix pytest name collisions, update websocket integration for AgentSessionOrchestrator.

504 passed, 1 skipped. Ruff clean.
