Overview

Every broadcast (command_result, execution_started, execution_status, worker_update, …) calls loadExecutions() / loadWorkers(), which re-fetch and replace innerHTML. Consequences:

loadExecutions() resets executionOffset to 0, so anything fetched via Load More disappears.
Compare-mode selections and multi-worker checkbox selections are re-rendered (checkboxes lose state on loadWorkers()).
Scroll position jumps; hover/focus is lost.
With Gandalf activity every few seconds the Executions tab visibly flickers.

The README's convergence list already calls for lt.autoRefresh.start(refreshData, 30000) instead of the raw setInterval.

Suggested fix

Apply events to in-memory state (update one row / insert at top) and re-render minimally; debounce list refreshes; preserve offset and selections; pause auto-refresh while a modal is open or an input is focused.
