When to use
- Inline status of an entity in a row, card, or detail view (Active / Idle / Error / Pending).
- Anywhere the user needs a quick visual read on real-time state.
- In tables, place the indicator in its own status column for fast scanning.
When not to use
- Counts or short pill-shaped numbers ("12 items", "NEW") → use `Badge`.
- Categorical tagging (project: SemSeg, type: 3D box) → use `Tag`.
- AI / generated content marker → use `AILabel` or `Slug`.
- Transient feedback after an action → use `Notification`.
