feat: fix Web UI re-rendering and scroll position loss
**Problem**: - SSE events triggered full page re-renders, causing scroll position loss - All server cards were destroyed and recreated on any data update - Similar issues across Servers, Secrets, Tool Calls, and Repositories views - Jarring UX with flickering and jumping content **Solution**: 1. **Smart Data Merging in Servers Store**: - Implemented `mergeServers()` function to update server objects in-place - Preserves object references to prevent unnecessary component re-renders - Added silent background refresh mode to avoid loading states during SSE updates - Uses Object.assign for efficient property updates 2. **Vue Best Practices**: - Added `TransitionGroup` components for smooth list animations - Implemented `v-memo` directive on ServerCard to skip re-renders when props unchanged - Used stable, unique keys for all list items (server.name, secret_ref.name, call.id) - Background data updates no longer show loading spinners 3. **Smooth CSS Transitions**: - Added enter/leave/move animations for all list components - Fade and scale effects for adding/removing items - Cubic bezier timing functions for smooth, professional animations 4. **Views Updated**: - Servers.vue: TransitionGroup with v-memo optimization - Secrets.vue: TransitionGroup for secrets and env vars - ToolCalls.vue: Stable keys with preserved expanded state - Repositories.vue: TransitionGroup for search results **Benefits**: - ✅ Scroll position maintained during SSE updates - ✅ Individual cards update without full page re-render - ✅ Smooth animations when servers added/removed - ✅ Reduced flickering and jumping content - ✅ Better performance with large server lists - ✅ Improved overall UX 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
