Research direction

Start at the Files panel entry point and reproduce the issue by changing folder contents externally while the panel is open. Trace how the panel currently detects or displays filesystem changes. Done means a user can refresh the panel and see external folder changes reflected, with a focused regression test if the existing test structure supports it.
