Research direction

Start by locating the tasks-list UI and the data used for each task's workspace or template; the issue provides no file or test names. Use the listed workspace examples as cases, then verify the tasks list shows a workspace or template icon beside each task and remains distinguishable across workspaces.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Summary

Add visual indicators (template/workspace icons) to the tasks list to help users quickly identify which workspace each task belongs to.

Current Behavior

The tasks list shows task names with workspace identifiers in the text (e.g., task-coder-issue-17417-f532, task-mcp-tools-inventory-b813), but there's no visual differentiation between tasks from different workspaces.

Proposed Enhancement

Add small template or workspace icons next to each task in the list to provide visual cues that help users quickly distinguish between tasks from different workspaces (e.g., coder, mcp-tools, albridge).
