refactor(lib): add usePolling hook for stats and admin

+The stats page uses `usePolling("/api/v1/stats", 5000)` for its five-second
+refresh loop, and the admin page uses the same hook for
+`/api/v1/admin/status`. Interval cleanup, stale-response guards, action-triggered
+refreshes, and error recovery stay in one shared hook instead of being
+reimplemented in route code.

 The agent detail route uses `useApi` for its primary usage request, keyed by the
 URL-encoded agent identifier. Navigating between agents aborts the superseded
 usage request and ignores any stale completion. Its optional lifetime-total

 ## `useApi`
 
@@ -84,6 +80,85 @@ Use this hook for simple GET-backed client views that can be represented as
 loading, error, or successful data. For write actions or request bodies, use the
 helpers in `src/lib/apiClient.ts` directly.
 
+## `usePolling`
+
+```ts
+function usePolling<T>(
+  path: string | null,
+  intervalMs: number,
+  options?: { initialPaused?: boolean },
+): PollingState<T>;
+```
+
+Import from:
+
+```ts
+import { usePolling } from "@/lib/usePolling";
+```
+
+Return shape:
+
+```ts
+type PollingState<T> = {
+  status: "loading" | "error" | "ok";
+  data: T | null;
+  error: string | null;
+  lastUpdated: Date | null;
+  paused: boolean;
+  pause: () => void;
+  resume: () => void;
+  refresh: () => Promise<void>;
+};
+```
+
+Parameters:
+
+- `path`: backend API path passed to `apiGet<T>`. Pass `null` to skip fetching.
+- `intervalMs`: polling cadence in milliseconds.
+- `initialPaused`: starts without the initial fetch. Calling `resume()` fetches
+  immediately and starts the interval.
+
+Behaviour and gotchas:
+
+- This is a client hook and must be used from a client component.
+- The hook fetches immediately unless `initialPaused` is true.
+- Polling uses the shared `apiGet` client, so base URL resolution, JSON parsing,
+  and API error handling stay consistent with other client views.
+- `pause()` clears the interval and prevents further automatic fetches.
+- `resume()` restarts polling and fetches immediately.
+- `refresh()` performs an on-demand fetch using the same path and resolves after
+  that request settles, so action handlers can await a follow-up status read.
+- Responses from superseded requests, paused/path-changed effects, and unmounted
+  components are ignored through an internal request id guard.
+- Successful responses update `lastUpdated`. Errors preserve the latest data, set
+  `status: "error"`, and expose a display-ready `error` string.
+
+Minimal real usage, based on `src/app/stats/page.tsx`:
+
+```tsx
+"use client";
+
+import { usePolling } from "@/lib/usePolling";
+
+type Stats = { totalRequests: number };
+
+export function StatsPreview() {
+  const state = usePolling<Stats>("/api/v1/stats", 5000);
+
+  if (state.error) {
+    return <p role="alert">{state.error}</p>;
+  }
+
+  return <p>{state.data?.totalRequests ?? 0} requests</p>;
+}
+```
+
+Use this hook for GET-backed views that need a repeated refresh cadence without
+copying `setInterval` cleanup, stale-response guards, and pause/resume handling
+into each page. Current adopters include the stats page and the admin status
+panel; the admin toggle awaits `refresh()` after pause/unpause actions so the
+visible status follows the backend result.

 This reference covers every hook exported from `src/lib` at the time of writing:
