🟢 #253 feat: visibility and control over background subagents (list, open, cancel)
Direct match: this issue asks for a UI to list running background subagents and provide Open/Kill actions, which is essentially the same visibility/control feature requested here for background commands.

🟢 #220 bug: Chat ends when Claude Code agent spawns a background agent and never resumes
Closely related because it describes the same background-agent lifecycle problem: spawned background work ends the visible chat flow and never resumes, which is the kind of hidden running task state this feature aims to expose and manage.

🟢 #213 bug: a stalled agent session hangs the chat task forever, and the whole transcript is lost if you kill it
Related on the control side: it discusses a run that can hang indefinitely and the need to kill stalled sessions safely, aligning with the request for a UI to inspect and terminate background work when slots are exhausted.
