ui cleanup after scope reduction

Problem

The UI needs a focused cleanup pass after the scope cuts.

This should polish the remaining app rather than redesigning or expanding it. The goal is a compact queue/kanban/calendar/settings experience that no longer feels shaped by removed features.

Current child issues

[ ] #306 — settings overlay should preserve the current dashboard background.
[ ] #313 — remove the empty integrations settings route unless Google provider work makes it real.
[ ] #318 — clarify dashboard provider ownership.
[ ] #322 — extract shared client task operations across queue/kanban/calendar.
[ ] #323 — split the task panel controller from rendering.
[ ] #324 — normalize keyboard scope handling.
[ ] #326 — simplify all-day calendar row chrome and hide empty all-day lanes.
[ ] #327 — tune calendar time-grid lines while preserving 15-minute click targets.
[ ] #328 — restore keybinding discoverability after customization removal.

Solution

Focus on:

queue, kanban, and calendar layout consistency
task panel affordances and empty/loading states
settings pages that remain after onboarding/keymap/share/PWA cuts
responsive web usability only, not mobile app or PWA strategy
stale labels/buttons that mention removed features
preserving the dense, keyboard-first UI while reducing hidden complexity

Acceptance criteria

The remaining views feel coherent after removed features disappear.
No UI element points to login, reminders, share links, PWA/offline app, voice capture, or multi-user account features.
The settings overlay bug is fixed before broader settings polish.
Calendar chrome no longer shows empty or redundant all-day/time-grid UI.
Built-in keybindings are discoverable without reintroducing customization.
The pass avoids adding new feature surface.

@harivansh-afk can you take this one? Please do a light general UI cleanup pass with low-risk polish only.

Owner

Completed: the child UI cleanup issues listed here have landed through the blank-start cleanup stack, including settings overlay, integrations/settings cleanup, dashboard ownership, shared task operations, task panel split, keyboard scope, all-day lane, time-grid, and keybinding discovery. Closing this tracker; future UI cleanup should be tracked as smaller concrete issues.
