Description

Some report have the report generation date when pressing the ? button. But many do not and it seems none of the ones from dashboard widgets.

Could it be possible to have a widget that shows that last time the the core:archive task was run for the site?

That would help to know the "freshness" of the dashboard and can also serve as a tool to ensure that the cron correctly runs.

Research direction

The issue names the core:archive task and dashboard widgets, but no files or tests. Start by locating the plugin's task-listing code and existing dashboard-widget entry points, then trace how the archive execution time can be obtained. Done means a widget shows the site's last core:archive run and helps confirm whether its cron job is working.
