Description
### Description
`.github/workflows/smoke-cursor.md` (lines 49, 51) uses vague, unfinished status messages with trailing ellipses: `run-started` reads "Cursor initializing... ... begins on this {event_type}..." and `run-failure` reads "...Cursor encountered unexpected challenges...". These read as filler rather than concrete status, and this workflow posts them frequently (every 2 days on schedule, plus on-demand). Flagged in the 2026-09-15 User Experience Analysis Report.
### Expected Impact
Clearer, more professional status messages for maintainers scanning PR/issue comments — failure messages point to run logs instead of trailing off.
### Suggested Fix
Update the `messages` block in `smoke-cursor.md`:
- `run-started`: "🖱️ [{workflow_name}]({run_url}) starting Cursor smoke test on this {event_type}."
- `run-failure`: "⚠️ [{workflow_name}]({run_url}) {status}. See run logs for details."
### Suggested Agent

Contributor guide
Research direction
Open .github/workflows/smoke-cursor.md and inspect the messages block around lines 49 and 51. Replace the vague ellipsis-heavy run-started and run-failure wording with the concrete messages specified in the issue; done means both frequent workflow status messages are clear and point failures to run logs.
