The background sweep now reports per-book activity to the UI so you can
see what it's doing without tailing logs. A compact pill above the
sidebar version footer shows the current line ("Searching N indexers
for X", pulsing while active; "Search idle" otherwise).
Built on the existing SearchProgress realtime channel (includeAutomatic
opt-in already present): the automatic-search sweep and the indexer
search workflow emit searching/grabbed/no_results/idle via a new
SearchProgressReporter.BroadcastAutomaticAsync; a process-local
SearchActivityTracker keeps the current event plus the last 30 outcomes
so a fresh page hydrates from GET /search/activity immediately instead
of waiting for the next SignalR event — which during an idle window
could be hours away. Interactive Add-New search is unaffected.
The tracker's rolling outcome feed is exposed by the endpoint and kept
in the frontend store for a future activity panel; the sidebar pill
renders the current line.

What
A live activity indicator for the automatic-search sweep: a sidebar pill that shows what the background search is doing right now ("Searching 4 indexers for …", "Grabbed 2 release(s) for …", "Search idle — last sweep processed 31 book(s)"), driven over the existing search-progress SignalR channel.
SearchActivityTracker(singleton): holds the current stage + a rolling 30-entry feed of recent per-book outcomes; hydrated on page load via a newGET /search/activityendpoint (in aSearchController.Activity.cspartial, keeping the main controller under the 500-line architecture cap).SearchProgressReporter.BroadcastAutomaticAsync: broadcaststype: "automatic"progress events through the existingIHubBroadcasterplumbing and records them in the tracker.IndexerSearchWorkflow(gated onisAutomaticSearch), per-book outcome + idle transitions in the automatic-search sweep.searchActivityPinia store (SignalR + hydration) and aSidebarSearchActivitypill.Note: the kevin/live original also had a dashboard "recent outcomes" panel; canary has no dashboard view, so this PR ships the sidebar half. The endpoint and store already carry the 30-outcome feed, so a future panel (e.g. on the Activity view) can consume it with zero backend changes.
Why
The automatic-search sweep is invisible today — you can't tell whether it's running, stuck, or idle without reading logs. This surfaces it where you already are.
Tests
7 new backend tests (tracker state/feed + reporter automatic-broadcast) and a 3-case vitest spec for the store. Full suite passing;
