cmux NEXT Settings > Updates: no "Awaiting Verdict" badge on builds the canary never rated
Leo: "what is #1 why and what is #2 going on there awaiting verdict? i fele like ui could be improvedthere"
#2: Settings > Updates > Channels showed "Awaiting Verdict" on every Nightly and Dev build, including builds hours old.
Why
The badge is each build's canary verdict, verdicts/<build>.json beside the NEXT appcast (UpdaterService+Channels.swift). The canary writes that file for few builds (most of its runs are cancelled), so nearly every build stayed pending and showed "Awaiting Verdict" forever.
What changes
- A build with no verdict, or a skipped one, shows no badge. Promoted, Held and Pulled still show. The
healthfield stayspendingin the page JSON, andhealth_titleisnull. - The unused
updater.channels.pendingstring is removed.
Dev listing the same builds as Nightly
This is by design, not a bug. Dev takes every build CI publishes (cmux-next-dev first, then cmux-next once promoted). With the ring off, both tracks are the same notes/index.json. This PR leaves that alone.
Tests
ChannelsPageStateTests: a build with no verdict hashealth_titlenull.channelsCard.test.tsx: an unrated build has no badge and no "Awaiting Verdict"; a held build keeps its warning badge. The mock now has one unrated build.
Risk
Low: the card's badge only.
Before / after
Settings > Updates, scrolled to the Channels card, on a fleet build driven on a capture mini. Before: every unrated Nightly build says "Awaiting Verdict". After: unrated builds show no badge; the promoted build keeps "Promoted".

Summary by cubic
Stops the Settings > Updates > Channels page from showing "Awaiting Verdict" on every Nightly and Dev build. The badge came from the canary's verdict file, which the canary writes for only a few builds, so almost every build showed "pending" forever.
- Unrated builds now show no badge and a null
health_title; Promoted, Held, and Pulled keep theirs. - Removes the unused
updater.channels.pendingstring. - Dev and Nightly listing the same builds is by design and left unchanged.
