Problem

The resting composer from #7855 shrinks the chat input to a single line whenever it loses focus or the conversation scrolls. On a large display that reclaimed space is not needed, and the constant shrink/expand is disruptive. There was no way to opt out.

Fix

Adds a client setting Collapse the composer at rest (on by default) under Settings → General, next to the other composer toggles. Turning it off:

  • keeps the full composer on existing threads instead of settling into the resting layout
  • disables the scroll-to-collapse gesture, so scrolling the timeline never collapses a focused composer

The gate lives in shouldUseRestingComposerLayout, so the resting/expanded transition, relocated controls, and inline image previews all follow from that single decision. New-thread and phone-width layouts are unchanged.

Surfaces walked: contracts schema + patch, Settings panel row with reset and "restore defaults" wiring, settings search entry, desktop client-settings fixture, user docs. Mobile is unaffected since the resting layout is desktop/web only.

Verified with the touched unit tests (composerFooterLayout, settingsSearch, settingsLayout, DesktopClientSettings) and typechecks for contracts, web, and desktop.

Built with Claude Fable 5.1 in Claude Code.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Note

Add composerAutoCollapse setting to keep composer expanded at rest

  • Adds the composerAutoCollapse boolean to ClientSettingsSchema and ClientSettingsPatch, defaulting to enabled when absent.
  • Wires the setting into shouldUseRestingComposerLayout and the desktop scroll-collapse tracking in ChatComposer, so disabling it keeps the full composer visible on existing threads.
  • Adds a searchable General Settings toggle and search entry, plus docs in composer.md.
  • Risk: the shouldUseRestingComposerLayout predicate now requires autoCollapseEnabled as input, so any caller not updated in composerFooterLayout.ts will fail to compile; mobile collapse behavior is unchanged and governed by its existing path.

Approvability

Verdict: Not approved

Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This adds a persisted, user-visible preference that changes existing-thread layout and scroll-collapse behavior, alongside a new product default. Its production-path impact and default choice warrant human review.

P2 Badge Hydrate the collapse preference before laying out the composer

When a user has persisted composerAutoCollapse: false and reloads into an existing desktop thread, settings initially contains DEFAULT_CLIENT_SETTINGS—where this value is true—until the asynchronous client-settings read completes (useSettings.ts:56,110-126). This gate therefore renders the composer collapsed and then expands/animates it after hydration, so the opt-out still causes the disruptive transition on startup, especially when desktop IPC is slow. ChatView already tracks clientSettingsHydrated; use that state to avoid committing the default collapse layout before the preference is known.

Superseded by #9469 (merged) — same composer-collapse setting (blur/scroll opt-out). Closing this duplicate.

P2 Badge Hydrate the collapse preference before laying out the composer
When a user has persisted composerAutoCollapse: false and reloads into an existing desktop thread, settings initially contains DEFAULT_CLIENT_SETTINGS—where this value is true—until the asynchronous client-settings read completes (useSettings.ts:56,110-126). This gate therefore renders the composer collapsed and then expands/animates it after hydration, so the opt-out still causes the disruptive transition on startup, especially when desktop IPC is slow. ChatView already tracks clientSettingsHydrated; use that state to avoid committing the default collapse layout before the preference is known.

Problem
The resting composer from #7855 shrinks the chat input to a single line whenever it loses focus or the conversation scrolls. On a large display that reclaimed space is not needed, and the constant shrink/expand is disruptive. There was no way to opt out.
Fix
Adds a client setting Collapse the composer at rest (on by default) under Settings → General, next to the other composer toggles. Turning it off:
  • keeps the full composer on existing threads instead of settling into the resting layout
  • disables the scroll-to-collapse gesture, so scrolling the timeline never collapses a focused composer
The gate lives in shouldUseRestingComposerLayout, so the resting/expanded transition, relocated controls, and inline image previews all follow from that single decision. New-thread and phone-width layouts are unchanged.
Surfaces walked: contracts schema + patch, Settings panel row with reset and "restore defaults" wiring, settings search entry, desktop client-settings fixture, user docs. Mobile is unaffected since the resting layout is desktop/web only.
Verified with the touched unit tests (composerFooterLayout, settingsSearch, settingsLayout, DesktopClientSettings) and typechecks for contracts, web, and desktop.
Built with Claude Fable 5.1 in Claude Code.

Note
Add composerAutoCollapse setting to keep composer expanded at rest
  • Adds the composerAutoCollapse boolean to ClientSettingsSchema and ClientSettingsPatch, defaulting to enabled when absent.
  • Wires the setting into shouldUseRestingComposerLayout and the desktop scroll-collapse tracking in ChatComposer, so disabling it keeps the full composer visible on existing threads.
  • Adds a searchable General Settings toggle and search entry, plus docs in composer.md.
  • Risk: the shouldUseRestingComposerLayout predicate now requires autoCollapseEnabled as input, so any caller not updated in composerFooterLayout.ts will fail to compile; mobile collapse behavior is unchanged and governed by its existing path.

P2 Badge Hydrate the collapse preference before laying out the composer
When a user has persisted composerAutoCollapse: false and reloads into an existing desktop thread, settings initially contains DEFAULT_CLIENT_SETTINGS—where this value is true—until the asynchronous client-settings read completes (useSettings.ts:56,110-126). This gate therefore renders the composer collapsed and then expands/animates it after hydration, so the opt-out still causes the disruptive transition on startup, especially when desktop IPC is slow. ChatView already tracks clientSettingsHydrated; use that state to avoid committing the default collapse layout before the preference is known.

Problem
The resting composer from #7855 shrinks the chat input to a single line whenever it loses focus or the conversation scrolls. On a large display that reclaimed space is not needed, and the constant shrink/expand is disruptive. There was no way to opt out.
Fix
Adds a client setting Collapse the composer at rest (on by default) under Settings → General, next to the other composer toggles. Turning it off:
  • keeps the full composer on existing threads instead of settling into the resting layout
  • disables the scroll-to-collapse gesture, so scrolling the timeline never collapses a focused composer
The gate lives in shouldUseRestingComposerLayout, so the resting/expanded transition, relocated controls, and inline image previews all follow from that single decision. New-thread and phone-width layouts are unchanged.
Surfaces walked: contracts schema + patch, Settings panel row with reset and "restore defaults" wiring, settings search entry, desktop client-settings fixture, user docs. Mobile is unaffected since the resting layout is desktop/web only.
Verified with the touched unit tests (composerFooterLayout, settingsSearch, settingsLayout, DesktopClientSettings) and typechecks for contracts, web, and desktop.
Built with Claude Fable 5.1 in Claude Code.
🤖 Generated with Claude Code
Note
Add composerAutoCollapse setting to keep composer expanded at rest
  • Adds the composerAutoCollapse boolean to ClientSettingsSchema and ClientSettingsPatch, defaulting to enabled when absent.
  • Wires the setting into shouldUseRestingComposerLayout and the desktop scroll-collapse tracking in ChatComposer, so disabling it keeps the full composer visible on existing threads.
  • Adds a searchable General Settings toggle and search entry, plus docs in composer.md.
  • Risk: the shouldUseRestingComposerLayout predicate now requires autoCollapseEnabled as input, so any caller not updated in composerFooterLayout.ts will fail to compile; mobile collapse behavior is unchanged and governed by its existing path.

The resting composer introduced in pingdotgg#7855 shrinks the chat input to a single
line whenever it loses focus or the conversation scrolls. Users with room
to spare find that disruptive and had no way to opt out.
Adds a client setting, Collapse the composer at rest (on by default), under
Settings → General. Turning it off keeps the full composer on existing
threads and disables the scroll-to-collapse gesture as well.

Approvability
Verdict: Not approved
Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This adds a persisted, user-visible preference that changes existing-thread layout and scroll-collapse behavior, alongside a new product default. Its production-path impact and default choice warrant human review.

P2 Badge Hydrate the collapse preference before laying out the composer
When a user has persisted composerAutoCollapse: false and reloads into an existing desktop thread, settings initially contains DEFAULT_CLIENT_SETTINGS—where this value is true—until the asynchronous client-settings read completes (useSettings.ts:56,110-126). This gate therefore renders the composer collapsed and then expands/animates it after hydration, so the opt-out still causes the disruptive transition on startup, especially when desktop IPC is slow. ChatView already tracks clientSettingsHydrated; use that state to avoid committing the default collapse layout before the preference is known.

Superseded by #9469 (merged) — same composer-collapse setting (blur/scroll opt-out). Closing this duplicate.
