Research direction

Start in App.vue and inspect how the NextBox app handles backend connection failures after entering the app. Reproduce the initial connection failure and the long-open timeout case; done means both checklist cases receive the requested user-friendly handling, including refreshing when the connection is no longer forwarded.
