* feat: add collapsible reasoning traces with animated labels
* feat(ui): redesign reasoning blocks with merged collapsible Thought view
- Replace per-part reasoning blocks with a single merged block per turn
(VSCode Copilot pattern), controlled by new `groupReasoningBlocks` store flag
- `ReasoningTimelineBlock` redesigned: chevron toggle, summary preview on
collapsed header, 'Thinking'/'Justification' label when expanded, BusyDots
while streaming, auto-scroll to bottom during live streaming
- Short texts (< 120 chars) render inline without a toggle
- Summary now strips markdown and truncates at a word boundary with ellipsis
- New `MergedReasoningPart` component merges all reasoning parts for a message
into one block at the position of the first reasoning part
- `defaultExpanded` prop lets callers override initial expand state
- Remove `.thinking-dot` CSS animation (replaced by BusyDots component)
- Fix reasoning markdown font-size: use `--text-markdown` instead of `--text-meta`
* refactor(ui): scope working phrases inside useAssistantStatus and simplify reasoning status
- Move WORKING_PHRASES array and getRandomWorkingPhrase() inside the hook
so they are no longer exported (were only consumed by ReasoningPart which
no longer needs them)
- Change the 'reasoning' activity status text from a random working phrase
to the deterministic string 'thinking' — matches the new UI label
* test(ui): expand ReasoningPart tests for new collapsible and summary behavior
- Update baseline test to use text long enough to trigger the collapsible
path (short texts now render inline) and assert on the correct aria markup
- Add test for 'Justification' label when pre-expanded via defaultExpanded
- Add test for 'Thinking' label for the thinking variant when expanded
- Add test verifying summary is a word-boundary-truncated excerpt ending with
an ellipsis character
* i18n: rename 'Reasoning Traces' to 'Thinking Blocks' and add thought key
- Rename settings label from 'Show Reasoning Traces' → 'Show Thinking Blocks'
across all supported locales (en, es, ko, pl, pt-BR, uk, zh-CN)
- Add `chat.reasoningTrace.thought` key to all locales (used by merged
reasoning block header in completed state)
* feat(ui): add collapsibleThinkingBlocks setting with full persistence wiring
- New boolean store field `collapsibleThinkingBlocks` (default true) with
`setCollapsibleThinkingBlocks` action; persisted to localStorage
- Threaded through DesktopSettings, SettingsPayload (API types), desktop
persistence (sanitize + apply), web appearance persistence, appearance
auto-save watcher, and server-side settings-helpers sanitize/format
- Server defaults to true when the field is absent in formatSettingsResponse
- MessageBody reads the flag: false → render reasoning as plain AssistantTextPart;
true → existing collapsible/merged block path
* feat(settings): expose Collapsible Reasoning Blocks toggle in visual settings
Add a checkbox under the 'Show Thinking Blocks' row (visible only when
showReasoningTraces is enabled) that toggles the collapsibleThinkingBlocks
preference. Follows the existing toggle pattern: div role=button, keyboard
handler for Enter/Space, Checkbox primitive, aria-pressed attribute.
* i18n: revert showReasoningTraces label rename and add collapsibleThinkingBlocks strings
- Revert 'Show Reasoning Traces' → 'Show Thinking Blocks' rename (the
collapsibleThinkingBlocks toggle is now a separate control, so the parent
label stays as 'Reasoning Traces' for clarity)
- Add `collapsibleThinkingBlocks` / `collapsibleThinkingBlocksAria` strings
across all seven supported locales (en, es, ko, pl, pt-BR, uk, zh-CN)
* test(server): add settings-helpers coverage for collapsibleThinkingBlocks
- Verify sanitizeSettingsUpdate accepts boolean true/false and rejects
non-boolean values (string, number)
- Verify formatSettingsResponse forwards the value correctly for both true
and false, and defaults to true when the field is absent
* fix(ui): respect defaultExpanded prop and remove dead alwaysShowActions from ReasoningTimelineBlock
The useEffect on [isStreaming] was firing on mount and immediately calling
setIsExpanded(false) (since isStreaming is false for completed blocks),
overriding any defaultExpanded={true} passed by callers. The fix uses a
prevIsStreamingRef so the effect only collapses the block on a true→false
transition and is a no-op on initial mount.
Also removes alwaysShowActions from ReasoningTimelineBlockProps — the new
header design always shows the chevron, making the prop obsolete. The prop
was already absent from the component destructuring (a dead type entry) and
was silently ignored at runtime. Removed it from ReasoningPartProps,
MergedReasoningPartProps, and the two call-sites in MessageBody as well.
* chore: remove unused reasoningpresentation module and test
* fix(ui): polish collapsible reasoning block UI

When notificationMode is 'hidden-only', the isWindowFocused check now
happens before summarization and template resolution, not after. This
prevents costly Zen API calls for notifications that would be skipped
anyway, and eliminates stale notifications arriving after the user has
already read the response and switched away.
C.UTF-8 does not exist on macOS, causing the terminal to fall back
to ASCII encoding when LANG is unset. Use en_US.UTF-8 on macOS and
C.UTF-8 on Linux. Also set LC_CTYPE with the platform-appropriate
value (UTF-8 on macOS, C.UTF-8 on Linux) for additional safety.
Add dedicated Electron Mini Chat windows for focused chat sessions without the full desktop shell. Mini Chat can open existing sessions or draft sessions, supports pinning above other windows, transfers sessions or drafts back to the main window, and deduplicates existing-session windows.
Expose Mini Chat entry points from the main header, session sidebar, command palette, and `mod+alt+n`. Add a dedicated Vite entry and React runtime so the compact surface can stay isolated from full-app chrome while still sharing chat, sync, theme, locale, model, agent, and worktree behavior.
Keep Mini Chat behavior scoped to the compact surface:
- limit assistant/user message actions to the appropriate Mini Chat set
- hide workspace changed-files UI in Mini Chat
- keep draft worktree selection and streaming directory state in sync
- mark sessions viewed while they are open in Mini Chat
- support Mini Chat-specific keyboard shortcuts for input focus, model selection, thinking variant cycling, favorite model cycling, and opening new Mini Chat drafts
Harden Electron integration by gating Mini Chat controls on desktop IPC availability, restricting pin/unpin IPC to Mini Chat windows, and only closing Mini Chat after the main window handoff succeeds.
