Agent Mode beta users need a clear path from Maple Research to Maple Work before the embedded mode is retired. On the empty new-task screen, users with agent_mode enabled now see an “Agent Mode is moving to a new app” pill that opens the existing styled dialog.

The dialog thanks early testers, introduces Work, describes the limited-time offer of up to 90% off DeepSeek usage, and explains that existing Agent Mode chats will become unavailable for continuation and will not transfer. It links to https://maple.ai/work and uses the Tauri OS and architecture helpers to choose the stable Apple silicon macOS or x86-64 Linux download. Other devices receive availability information. The notice is hidden during task loads, submissions, active runs, and conversations that already have messages; flag lookup failures keep it hidden.

Validation:

• Complete Research frontend checks: formatting, lint, type checking, and 1,371 passing tests.
• PR-profile web build passed using the pinned Nix environment.
• Browser component fixture: light/dark dialog, Escape and focus return, flag disabled/failure, macOS/Linux download dispatch, Intel Mac/Windows availability, and Work-page link dispatch. Platform and feature flag inputs were simulated; this does not establish native-app or authenticated integration coverage.
• Packaged native Research app (Local): verified the workspace-specific bundle identity and local API/billing origins, signed in through email/password with an isolated Pro fixture, and opened the real Agent Mode empty new-task screen with the pill visible. The feature flag was enabled through the supported development override. No agent task was started.
• Both stable download URLs followed redirects to HTTP 200 installers without downloading or executing them.

The Work marketing page currently presents early-access signup. The notice links directly to the live download service for installation. Retirement and offer-expiry dates remain unspecified, matching the supplied product copy. Native download-dispatch smoke remains outstanding. This PR changes client presentation only.
