Use Relay for shared loading indicators and the Sim wordmark morph for
workspace and workflow loading. Show workflow navigation feedback as soon
as a destination is selected, including sidebar and search navigation.

Replace the relay loader with a compact fading highlight around a ring.
Keep the weighted orbit and reduced-motion fallback. This commit records
the gradient variant before returning to the orbiting-dot design.
Replace the gradient highlight with a solid dot on a 3-unit ring.
Record the dot variant with its slowdown centered at the top before
experimenting with a clockwise offset.
Keep the dot moving through the top while accelerating through the bottom.
Rotate the ring and dot together so their alignment stays fixed when scaled.
This commit records the updated dot spinner variant.
Give the running strip and Stop highlight matching 15-degree edges with
rounded corners and a 2.75px gap. Round the strip's outer end to follow the
node contour, and preserve the thicker dot loader at 16px in the run button.

Checkpoint for the slanted strip version before trying a vertical gap.
Use Static in light mode and Graphite in dark mode for workflow loading,
while keeping the existing gradients available for the landing page.
Remove the temporary pinned preview so loading ends normally.

Checkpoint the rounded vertical gap between the Stop highlight and the
running strip before restoring the slanted strip version for comparison.

Summary

  • Introduces shared dot-spinner and wordmark-morph components.
  • Adds immediate loading feedback during workflow navigation.
  • Routes workflow creation, duplication, import, deletion, and switching through shared navigation behavior.
  • Aligns workflow empty states and refines running-node controls.
  • The changes since the previous review add the required declaration-level documentation to the exported workflow-navigation hooks.
