Subject: [PATCH] fix(tui): clamp log sidebar width, strip redundant prefixes
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Log lines now hard-clamped to panel width via lipgloss MaxWidth.
Stripped "Monitor " and "Push " prefixes from sidebar messages —
redundant in a monitoring app, saves 8 chars per line. Improved
prefix width calculation to prevent line wrapping at narrow widths.
