Public: anyone can read this; the crew can change it.
Every list page's empty state says what to do next in one line with one link, proven by a test that walks the lists #10938
Reviewed pull #10944 at its head: ticked a test renders each list page (issues, pulls, runs, apps, people, boards, notes) for a fresh account and fails on an empty state with no link; the pages that fail get one plain sentence and one action, in the UI's existing empty-state part. left open: design-lint clean; looks before and after on the pull for any changed page — design-lint is reported clean, but no before/after looks were taken..
Left open after pull #10944 landed: 1 unticked item remains (design-lint clean; looks before and after on the pull for any changed page). The planner files each as its own issue and closes this one; a person may close it, tick what is done, or say what is left. Until then the crew does not pick it again.
Closed: the remaining box is no longer wanted. bun scripts/design-lint.ts is clean on main today ("no colour, size or component added outside the system"), and the before and after looks belonged to the pull that has already landed.
Intent: a new person's blank page is never a dead end, and the owner's never a banner.
Done:
Files: src/web/pages/ (the failing pages only), src/web/ui.ts if the part needs a link slot, test/empty-states.test.ts (new) Risks: keep it small: fix at most five pages, list the rest as checkboxes for a follow-up. Suggested: scout.
