Summary
In the desktop app's New task dialog, the Agent select and Branch input do not visually align as a clean two-column form row. In the user-provided screenshot, the Branch field sits slightly out of rhythm with the Agent field, and the extra Refresh agents action under Agent makes the row feel uneven.
Where it appears
- App: Agent Orchestrator desktop UI
- Screen: project board -> New task modal
- Fields: Agent and Branch row
Current behavior
The Agent column contains:
- the Agent label/select
- a secondary Refresh agents link below it
The Branch column contains only:
This makes the two-column row look unbalanced and the Agent/Branch controls appear misaligned in the modal.
Expected behavior
- The Agent select and Branch input should share the same vertical baseline and height rhythm.
- Any secondary Agent action, such as Refresh agents, should not make the Branch column look vertically offset or incomplete.
- The layout should remain polished at desktop modal width and when collapsed on smaller viewports.
Code pointers
Likely affected component:
frontend/src/renderer/components/NewTaskDialog.tsx
- field grid: around line 164
- Agent field + Refresh agents action: around lines 165-187
- Branch field: around lines 189-198
Nearby but not the same issue:
- This issue is specifically about visual alignment/layout polish for the Agent and Branch controls.
Suggested fix direction
A small frontend layout change should be enough. Possible approaches:
- Reserve a matching helper/action row under Branch so both columns have the same structure.
- Move Refresh agents outside the two-column field row.
- Use a shared form-field wrapper that keeps labels, controls, and helper/action rows aligned consistently.
Verification
- Open the desktop app project board.
- Click New task.
- Confirm the Agent and Branch controls align cleanly in the same row.
- Confirm Refresh agents remains accessible and does not disturb the row layout.
- Check the responsive/small-width layout still stacks fields cleanly.
