Task: Add Loading States and Transitions

Description: Add proper loading states and smooth transitions for view switching and data loading.

Technical Details:

  • Add loading skeletons for cards
  • Add transition animations for drill-down
  • Show loading indicator during data fetch
  • Animate view toggle transition
  • Handle error states gracefully

Files to Create/Modify:

frontend/src/components/workbench/CardSkeleton.tsx    (create)
frontend/src/components/workbench/WorkbenchCanvas.tsx (modify - add loading states)
frontend/src/index.css                                 (modify - add transitions)

Loading States:

  1. Initial Load: Skeleton cards while fetching

  3. View Toggle: Smooth crossfade between views
  4. Error State: Friendly error message with retry

Acceptance Criteria:

  • Skeleton loaders shown while loading
  • Smooth fade/slide for drill-down
  • View toggle animates smoothly
  • Error states display helpful message
  • No layout shift during loading
