+summary: The GitHub/GitLab Import Tasks screen now marks an issue, PR, or item as "Imported" immediately after importing it.
+category: fix
+dev: GitHubImportModal unions a local optimistic imported-URL set (populated in handleImport/handleImportGitLab success handlers, cleared on modal reset and on provider/owner/repo/GitLab-resource change) with the tasks-derived importedUrls at every consumer (rows, count labels, top/bottom/GitLab Import buttons), so a just-imported row shows the badge and disables re-import without waiting for the tasks prop round-trip.

+   Expected outcome: the list pane shows matching open issues or pull requests and marks entries that already exist on the board. After a successful GitHub or GitLab import, the source row is marked **Imported** and made unavailable immediately, without waiting for the board list to refresh.
 4. Select an issue or pull request row.
    Expected outcome: the preview pane shows its title, source link, body excerpt/content, labels or PR metadata, and import availability. When the selected title/body appear to be in a language other than the current dashboard language, the preview offers **Translate** (into the dashboard language), **Show original** / **Show translation** after a successful translation, and **Dismiss**. Translation is display-only in the preview; imported task text stays the original source language.
