Overview

After clicking Execute Command the Quick Command panel only prints "Command sent successfully! … Check the Executions tab to see the results". The actual stdout/stderr arrives seconds later over WebSocket, but the panel never updates. For the primary use-case of the app (run df -h on a box and read the answer) this is two extra clicks and a hunt through a list that may be dominated by automated runs.

Where

public/index.html executeQuickCommand() – renders a static confirmation.
connectWebSocket() – on command_result it only refreshes the list/modal, never the Quick Command result area.

Suggested fix

Track the returned execution_id(s) and, on the matching command_result broadcast, render stdout/stderr, duration and a success/failure badge directly under the form (per worker in multi mode).
Offer a "View full execution" link that opens the detail modal.
Show a live "running… 3s" indicator until the result arrives.
