Description

We have gray placeholder text in the editor and Agents windows that indicates which harness is selected for an existing session (in screenshot below, it's `Copilot`):

But there isn't another (potentially more obvious) visual indicator of the user's harness selection. Is there a way to signify the current harness more clearly to users in existing sessions, without bringing back items we've removed (like the harness Continue In picker, or `Copilot` as a participant name above its chat responses)?
