Research direction

Start by reading SkillIndicator.tsx and locating the Skills popover description styling. Compare the existing one-line truncation with the suggested two-line clamp or an expandable row, and check nearby component tests if present. Done means users can read more of a long skill description in the popover without disrupting its layout.

Description

enhancement

Problem: Skill descriptions in the Skills popover are truncated to one line with no way to read the rest.

Fix idea: line-clamp-2, or expand a row on click or tap (SkillIndicator.tsx).

Priority P3. Size S.

Found by the agent bug bashes in #5670 (pre-existing, outside that PR's changes).
