The v5b design's own row: the negotiated cipher, then the host key's algorithm
and the name of the key or credential that authenticated, as one mono run
beside CONNECTED — on both surfaces, off MainWindowViewModel's surface-aware
SessionCipher and SessionIdentityText, the same shape SessionAddress set.

The identity's name comes out of TryBuildAuthentication, the one resolution
point that always had it in scope and always threw it away; it rides
HostAuthentication to the tab and to the SFTP connect alike. Three deviations,
recorded in the gaps doc: the algorithm prints as negotiated rather than
shortened, the run is plain text because no pin-details modal exists for an
open session, and a typed password shows the algorithm alone — there is no
item behind the dot. A dead terminal tab keeps its facts for the scrollback
still on screen; an SFTP disconnect, with no scrollback, clears them.

> | The host header's OS label (`Ubuntu 24.04 LTS`) and latency reading (`12 ms`) | Neither. The client does not know the remote's OS and nothing measures round-trip time — the same two absences the terminal pane header already recorded before this pass, carried into the new header rather than reopened. |
> | A **Port forward** button on the host header | Omitted. The feature does not exist; see the FORWARDING rows earlier in this document. |
> | The tab and status dots' third, amber state | ◆ **Still two states**, for the reason the hosts screen's own dot has stayed two states since v3: green means a shell is open (or a session is connected), grey means it is not, and nothing here pings a host to justify a third colour meaning "reachable but not connected". |
> | The status bar's negotiated cipher, host-key algorithm and key/credential name | Omitted, and recorded rather than silently dropped. None of the three is reachable from this shell today: `SshNetConnection` holds the negotiated algorithms but nothing reads them off `ISshConnection`; `HostKeyPresentation` exists only for the trust questions a connection asks on the way in, not for a session already open; and a key's display name is never threaded past the connect call into anything the session keeps. What is real and bound is CONNECTED plus a dot, the session's own elapsed timer, and — terminal surface only — `UTF-8`, worded as a fact about this client's own renderer rather than a claim the remote agreed to. Candidates for future plumbing, not a defect closed here. |
> | The status bar's negotiated cipher, host-key algorithm and key/credential name | ◆ **Shipped, on both surfaces, with three honest deviations.** `ISshConnection` and `ISftpSession` now both carry `Cipher` — the server-to-client algorithm off SSH.NET's own `ConnectionInfo.CurrentServerEncryption`, captured once at construction because a rekey is not an event SSH.NET raises — and `TerminalWorkspace.GetSessionFacts` hands the cipher and the host key's algorithm back to the shell the moment a session opens; `VaultViewModel.TryBuildAuthentication` now threads the authenticating key's or credential's own `Label` into `HostAuthentication.IdentityLabel`, all the way to `MainWindowViewModel`'s surface-aware `SessionCipher`, `SessionHostKeyAlgorithm` and `SessionIdentityLabel`, composed into one `SessionIdentityText` run for the status bar. Three deviations from the mock, not omissions: the algorithm prints exactly as negotiated (`ssh-ed25519`), not the design's shortened `ed25519`, because trimming it would be an edit to a string this client did not choose; the run is plain text rather than the design's clickable element, because there is no pin-details modal for a session that is already open, and drawing a click target for a screen that does not exist would itself be a fabrication; and a typed-password session — nothing filed in the keychain to name — shows the host-key algorithm alone, with no `·` after it, because there is no item behind the dot. |
> | S3 dimmed in the design's own switcher | **Enabled.** The mock leaves S3 as future work; this application already has bucket browsing, so SSH, SFTP and S3 are a true three-way segment, wired to `IsSshShowing`, `IsTransfersShowing` and `IsBucketsShowing` exactly alike. |
> | The S3/Buckets screen | **Did not get the session shell in v5b.** `TransfersScreen` serves both SFTP and S3 today and only the SFTP usage in `MainWindow.axaml` sat inside the new tab row/header/status bar/sidebar; the S3 usage was unchanged at the time. **v5c gives it the shell's own look without the machinery** — a 26-pixel padded, bordered, radius-12 container and nothing past that, since a bucket has no tab to close, no host to head a card with and no pin for a sidebar to show; see the v5c section, below. |
> | No pins destination in the design at all | **Kept anyway.** The rail still carries Pins — `KnownHostsScreen` — because the mock has no screen for approved host keys and this application's has to stay reachable. |

| `SNIPPETS` panel, `↵` to run | client-domain | A snippet item type (`Snippet = 8`, reserved). | **Shipped**, as a screen rather than a panel. `↵` is per snippet and off by default: inserting types the command at the prompt and stops, because nothing here can tell whether the terminal is at a prompt at all. |

| Pane header `aes256-gcm` | client-ssh | **The closest miss on this list.** `SshNetConnection` holds the `SshClient`, so `ConnectionInfo.CurrentServerEncryption` is right thereit just is not on `ISshConnection` or surfaced by `TerminalWorkspace`. | Omitted; the session shell's own host header shows the account and endpoint actually dialled (v3v4: the tab strip did; v5b moved the fact to `SessionHeader`, off `MainWindowViewModel.SessionAddress`, when the strip was retired). |
| Pane header `aes256-gcm` | client-ssh | **No longer a miss — the plumbing this row used to lack now exists.** `ISshConnection.Cipher` and `TerminalWorkspace.GetSessionFacts` were built for the v5b session shell's status bar; see that row in the v5b section, above. | Still not on a pane header — this pre-v5b element does not exist as its own piece of chrome any more. The fact it wanted to show is drawn instead where v5b moved it: the status bar's `SessionCipher`, beside CONNECTED. The session shell's host header separately shows the account and endpoint actually dialled (v3v4: the tab strip did; v5b moved that fact to `SessionHeader`, off `MainWindowViewModel.SessionAddress`, when the strip was retired). |
| Pane header showing the running command and `following` | client-ssh | The host moves opaque bytes and never parses terminal output. Would need shell integration (OSC 133) on the remote. | Omitted. |
| A `local · zsh` tab | client-ssh | Every session here is an SSH channel. Needs ConPTY and a second session kind. | Omitted. |
| Tab strip `+` button | ui | Not missing so much as redundant: the real operation is *select a host, press Connect*, which the hosts grid already is. | **Shipped**, as the palette rather than a menu: it opens what Ctrl+K opens, so the strip and the shortcut are one way of doing one thing. A `MenuFlyout` offering "SSH" and "local shell" is the nicer answer and is not verifiably safe above the terminal's native child window — and there is no local shell to offer. |
