Description
When signed in, with the same skillmap open in two browsers (call them browser A and B), progress in an activity on browser A isn't transferred to browser B when the activity is subsequently opened on B.
Browser B should already be doing a quick cloud check on the project when it is opened. That doesn't seem to be happening. Fixing this isn't sufficient though because skillmap progress must also be synced.
A solution might be to re-sync cloud and skillmap progress when a browser regains focus.

Research direction
Reproduce the scenario with the same skillmap open in browsers A and B, completing an activity in A and reopening it in B. Trace the project-open and browser-focus refresh paths, including cloud and skillmap progress synchronization. Done means B reflects A's progress after opening the activity or regaining focus.
