I built split screen into AgentControl months ago and hadn't used it since. Today it finally helped: I referred to the cost table while reading the analysis below. Still wondering if a screenshot would have been enough. Every feature must be worth the complexity it introduces.

`fzf` changed how I build search. For search/filtering, I try fuzzy subsequence matching first. I even worked at a search engine company. Latest example: Cmd-K tab search in Agent Browser. Moving through results switches tabs; Cmd-W closes that tab. Really good QoL improvement.
