Improve OpenChamber responsiveness under large session workloads while fixing
cache, synchronization, and persistence correctness across runtimes, projects,
directories, and worktrees.
- prioritize selected and visible sessions during bootstrap and defer
non-critical enrichment work
- reduce redundant message loading, event processing, store publication, and
hidden sidebar work
- prevent stale session and message requests from overwriting newer
authoritative state
- preserve existing data when authoritative fetches fail instead of treating
failures as successful empty responses
- scope session materialization, messages, drafts, queues, todos, pins,
permissions, folders, tabs, Git state, and pull request data by runtime and
directory identity
- harden runtime switching, reconnect, cleanup, mutation reconciliation, and
persisted-state ordering
- preserve live subagent Task linkage when metadata arrives after an older
message request or while streaming parts are suspended
- coalesce overlapping tail refreshes without losing newer refresh demand
- improve cold-session loading by moving deferrable work out of the critical
bootstrap path
- isolate URL authentication, mobile credentials, native secrets, and other
runtime-owned state across endpoint changes
- bound long-lived caches and remove avoidable allocations from event and
rendering hot paths
- limit virtualization to archive collections where it improves rendering
without disrupting active sidebar layout
- stabilize session folders, pin ordering, expanded state, and persisted
sidebar behavior
- open skill files through the same secure editor and outside-workspace grant
flow used by file navigation, including worktree sessions
- expand regression coverage for stale completions, runtime collisions,
reconnect behavior, persistence races, authoritative empty results, and
subagent refresh ordering
- document the updated synchronization, cache ownership, performance, and
runtime-isolation invariants
* fix(mobile): always mount SessionSidebar to eliminate >10s drawer open delay (#1695)
On mobile (Android PWA), SessionSidebar was conditionally mounted via
{mobileLeftDrawerVisible && ...}, causing the component to unmount on
drawer close and remount on every open. Each remount fired a full
data-loading cascade: paginated sessions fetch (PAGE_SIZE=500 with
retry), worktree discovery, repo status, PR status, 10+ useMemo
recomputations, and localStorage reads, manifesting as a >10s delay
before the drawer became interactive.
Desktop already avoided this by keeping SessionSidebar always mounted
inside <Sidebar> with a CSS visibility toggle.
Fix: remove the mobileLeftDrawerVisible conditional wrapper so
SessionSidebar stays mounted on mobile too, matching desktop behavior.
Visibility remains controlled by the leftDrawerX transform (off-screen
when closed). Added pointer-events-none when hidden as a defensive guard.
Added a regression test that fails if the conditional mount pattern is
reintroduced around the mobile SessionSidebar.
* fix(mobile): hide closed drawer to avoid rotation offset leak
