The collapse read as a hard cut: only the track width animated while the
panel content swapped instantly and the rail icons bore no relation to the
expanded layout. Now the four control rows persist across the transition —
collapse toggle, new session, new workspace, search, the same top-down
order as their expanded rows — and morph their geometry (row heights,
paddings, margins, capsule borders) on the deepsuite curve, so each rail
icon is its expanded control converging onto the 56px axis. Wide-only
content (brand, labels, input, session tree) cross-fades over 200ms, stays
mounted while the collapse animates, and unmounts at the 300ms settle,
still dropping the sessions subscription. The search query moves up to the
root and survives the round trip; rail search focuses the surviving input
after expand instead of remount-autofocus.
The collapsed rail becomes a 56px icon column (24px controls between 16px
paddings) carrying expand, new session, search, and new workspace — each
aligned with its expanded counterpart; rail search expands the sidebar and
focuses the search box. Collapse/expand now animates: the frame transitions
grid-template-columns (and the surviving handle its left) on the deepsuite
sider curve — --ds-ease-in-out over --ds-transition-duration-slow, supplied
by ui-theme's base sheet. Transitions pause during drags (data-dragging on
the frame, set for the whole gesture) and under prefers-reduced-motion.
A closed sidebar previously resolved to a zero-width grid track, clipping
the only toggle and the settings entry with no visible recovery; the closed
preference persisted across reloads, locking the sidebar shut.
- columns.ts maps the closed preference (width 0) to a fixed 60px
SIDEBAR_COLLAPSED rail through every step of the concession solve;
closed details still resolve to zero width.
- AppFrame derives data-sidebar-collapsed and the sidebar slot's collapsed
owner prop from the persisted preference instead of the resolved track
width, and drops the resize handle while collapsed.
- SidebarRoot reads the owner collapsed prop; the expanded-only body is a
separate component that unmounts while collapsed (dropping its sessions
subscription), leaving the expand toggle and Settings in the rail.
- The keyless web smoke gains the ui-sidebar bundle (six real bundles) and
pins the 60px rail collapse/expand round through the assembled client.
Automatic compaction fires mid-conversation, right after the loop warmed
the provider's KV cache with the last routed request. The default
summarizer then issued a separate request whose prefix shared nothing
with that warm request — a bespoke summarizer system prompt followed by
the older history flattened to one rendered transcript string — so a
differing first token invalidated the entire cached prefix and every
compaction re-processed the whole replayed history twice.
Move the compaction directive from the FRONT (a fresh system prompt) to
the END (a trailing user message), and replay the last routed request's
own system prompt, tools, message prefix, and shadowed-region messages
verbatim via session.requestHeader() + deriveEventMessage. The auxiliary
call is now a genuine prefix-extension of the warm request, so the
provider reuses the cached tokens up to the trailing instruction.
SummarizationInput carries the replayed prefix instead of a flat string;
the now-unused renderTranscript/renderContentBlocks path is removed with
its spec. Cache reuse is best-effort (head compaction guarantees a hit;
a mid-range compaction or a differently-routed summarizer forgoes it),
correctness is not.
A TUI run against an unreachable endpoint failed with only 'fetch failed':
undici wraps transport failures in a bare TypeError whose diagnosis lives
on .cause, and every diagnostic seam rendered only error.message. The
readline front door additionally rendered failed turns as pure silence.
- dsh-llm: new errorChain(value) renders the full cause chain and
AggregateError members with circular/hostile-coercion containment.
- llm-deepseek: pre-response transport failures throw LlmError('NETWORK')
naming the endpoint and chaining the fetch TypeError; aborts keep their
DOMException so the loop still classifies them as cancellation.
- agent-loop: durable turn/end error messages and logger warnings render
through errorChain; local renderThrown copies removed.
- ui-stdio: failure turn/end reasons now render ([turn failed <code>],
[turn aborted], [turn rejected], output-token-limit); startup-failure
logs use errorChain.
- ui-tui: agent/error notices and the startup-failure line use errorChain.
