Show the price the anchor will use, and record where things run

The snap dot said where an anchor would land but not what it was, which made
"the dot is in the wrong place" and "the dot is on the wrong bar" impossible to
tell apart from a screenshot. It now carries a label with the price, whether it
is a high or a low, and the bar's time.

AGENTS.md gains the environment fact this session kept rediscovering: the agent
runs on a remote machine over SSH while the user's browser runs on another, so
headless runs here render on different hardware at a different size and pixel
ratio, and "it passes in my headless run" is not evidence the user's problem is
fixed. Three consecutive reproductions passed server-side while the chart was
unusable on the user's screen. When a visual bug will not reproduce, match their
viewport and deviceScaleFactor explicitly — and prefer putting the numbers on
screen over asking for another console paste.

Device pixel ratio is ruled out for the current trendline complaint: the
bottom-sweep check lands 115 of 115 at 1600x1000 and at 1900x1400 with ratios of
1, 1.25, 1.5 and 2.

## Where things run
**The agent works on a remote machine over SSH. The user's browser runs on a
different machine.** Consequences, all learned the hard way:
- You cannot see the user's screen, console, or cursor. Screenshots and pasted
console output are the only window into it. Browser extensions that drive
"your" Chrome do not help — they attach to the machine the browser is on.
- Headless Chromium here renders on server hardware: different screen, window
size and device pixel ratio from the user's. "Works in my headless run" is not
evidence that it works for them. When a UI bug will not reproduce, match their
viewport and `deviceScaleFactor` explicitly before concluding anything.
- The dev stack is served to them over the network (e.g. `hera.local:8010`),
which is the same app the headless browser reaches as `http://api:8000`.
When a visual bug resists reproduction, prefer putting the numbers **on screen**
in the app over asking for another console paste — one screenshot then carries
the whole diagnosis.
