The '● Live · Ns ago' pill was reset by any node/activeCalls/incident change,
so heartbeats kept it green while STT/correlation were dead (#196).
- lib/usePipelineHealth.ts: polls /health/ai (auth-free) every 60 s and
derives stage staleness from data too, since /health/ai resets on restart.
Radio = newest call; STT = calls heard after the newest transcript, dry when
>=3 are waiting and the oldest is > N min; AI = newest incident write /
linked call + any degraded /health/ai tier. N = NEXT_PUBLIC_WALL_STALE_MIN
(default 10); radio silence and AI absence get 3N (weaker evidence).
- components/live/TruthStrip.tsx: per-stage chips; full-width amber
DEGRADED bar naming the dry stage and any degraded tier.
- LiveView: heartbeat lastUpdated removed and no longer passed to MapView
(hides the old pill without touching MapView); 'Listening' only when every
stage is healthy; map + rail greyed when degraded; nodes KPI is now
'nodes hearing' (a call in the last N min).
