feat(shell cards): Shell cards with minimal content and customize selection between default and minimal - #1836
Merged

Conversation
Add a Card content selector to /gentle:customize (Cards category) with two levels, persisted like Card style in card-content.json under the Gentle config home and shared across extensions through a process-wide slot: - minimal (the default): read, write and bash cards show only the command while collapsed, with the full result still one ctrl+o away; bash rows are drawn by gentle-shell through pi.registerToolRenderer (execution and schema stay pi's; hosts without the resolver keep pi's native drawing). - default: the previous behavior -- collapsed result previews, counts and summaries return, and bash defers to pi's native renderer. The bash card title is the bare command; the card glyph supplies the single $ prompt marker. Gentle-ai cards keep their full card with the elapsed time on the closing rule in both modes. Verified with the card-content-policy, quiet-tool-rendering, shell-card and gentle-shell suites plus typecheck (this checkout's node_modules predates main and cannot load lib/codemode-renderer.ts; that failure is pre-existing and unrelated to this change).
The minimal Card content preference now draws the command alone for every quiet tool (read, bash, grep, find, ls, edit, write) while collapsed; the expand key still reveals the full result. The default preference keeps result previews, counts and summaries unchanged. The default-mode preview tests are pinned to CARD_CONTENT.DEFAULT with setCardContent try/finally, because the unset process slot reads as minimal and would now hide those previews.

Re-apply the saved card content on session_start.
applyCardStyle() runs again in the session_start handler (Line 1795). applyCardContent() runs only once, at factory time. The two cases behave differently:
- If another session or a hand edit changes
card-content.json, the live slot keeps the stale value until Pi rebuilds the extension runtime. - The comment at Line 1701 says card preferences refresh "on every session start". Card content does not follow that rule.
Call applyCardContent() next to applyCardStyle() in the session_start handler.

Resolve conflicts with main and apply the review follow-ups: - Keep `default` as the Card content level when no preference is saved, so existing users keep their previews until they opt into `minimal`. - Keep the bounded error tail on failed calls under `minimal`. - Re-apply the saved Card content on every session start. - Title bash with the bare command only under `minimal`. - Restore the existing rendering tests from main and pin the minimal behavior in dedicated tests. - Document Card content in docs/gentle-shell.md.

📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value
Use useCardContent for consistent cleanup.
This test sets the slot manually and restores DEFAULT in finally. The other tests restore the previous value through useCardContent. If the slot held minimal before the test, this test changes it to default afterward. Use useCardContent(t, CARD_CONTENT.DEFAULT) and remove the try/finally.
