What changed

Long questions could extend above the screen, and notice text and task progress competed for space above the composer.

This bounds question lists with the existing scroll area, keeps notice titles and details on one line with full details in a scrollable popover, and right-aligns actions when they wrap. Task progress bars respond to the composer width, so narrow panes keep more room for task text. The visible count already omits “complete” on main. Project-clone banners keep their original layout and ghost buttons.

Validation

  • Focused question/approval tests, web typecheck and build passed. Targeted lint reports existing warnings only; formatting and diff checks passed.
  • Browser checks covered 320, 390, 768 and 1280 px, plus an open right panel. Checked keyboard answers, collapse/reopen, Retry payloads, task expansion, full details, Escape and focus return.
  • Tested with isolated fixtures and intercepted outgoing answer/retry commands. Web and desktop share these components; native mobile is unchanged.

UI Changes

Approvability

Verdict: Not approved

Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This is a contained web UI refinement, but it changes the default rendering and responsive layout of existing composer notices, including the default action-wrapping mode. The default presentation change warrants human review before merge.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes add compact responsive layouts for composer and clone banners. Pending input content now uses bounded scrolling and anywhere wrapping. Task segments use a 560px breakpoint.

Changes

Composer and clone banner presentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Responsive banner layout
apps/web/src/components/chat/ComposerBanner.tsx, apps/web/src/components/chat/ComposerTasksBadge.tsx
The 400px action layout right-aligns actions. The narrow layout keeps its existing alignment. Task segments appear from the 560px breakpoint.
Compact alert presentation
apps/web/src/components/chat/ComposerBannerStack.tsx, apps/web/src/components/ChatView.tsx
Alerts select compact or standard layouts. Compact alerts adjust truncation, notice-details visibility, popover sizing, wrapping, and bounded scrolling. Running and cancelled or failed clone banners enable compact presentation.
Composer content scrolling
apps/web/src/components/chat/ComposerPendingUserInputPanel.tsx
Pending input content uses bounded scrolling and anywhere wrapping. Selection, shortcut, disabled-state, and button behavior remain unchanged.

Verified the long notice details on 41bdddb857: Tab reaches the scroll area, Page Down scrolls the text, and Escape returns focus to the details button. Short notices and Retry still pass.

Leaving the docstring-coverage suggestion unchanged. These are layout edits to existing components, with no new API or behavior contract to document.

The ghost Retry button is intentional in be307a4. The requested scope now restores the project-clone banner to its original layout and actions while keeping the other composer-banner enhancements. The PR description and screenshot have been updated to match. The suggestion to restore a primary Retry button does not apply to the current request.

@coderabbitai review

Please review the current scope on be307a4. Project-clone banners deliberately retain the original layout and ghost Retry button, as requested by the contributor. The description and screenshots now state this explicitly. The previous suggestion to make Retry primary conflicts with that request; see the explanation in #12166 (comment).

@Bil0000 The current scope keeps the original project-clone banner layout and ghost Retry button. The earlier primary-button suggestion does not apply and is withdrawn. I will review the current changes on be307a487c.

Maintainer follow-up for be307a4:

  • The CI Test job failed in the unchanged mobile test shikiReviewHighlighter.test.ts (initializes source and snippet highlighting without a warmup). All 7 tests in that file pass locally. Please rerun the failed job: https://github.com/pingdotgg/t3code/actions/runs/35243135928/job/105276399146. GitHub returns HTTP 403 (admin rights required) when this account requests the rerun.
  • Macroscope correctness and UI checks pass. Its approvability check requests human review under the product-default policy.
  • CodeRabbit has withdrawn its Retry-button suggestion after confirming the clone-banner revert is intentional. No unresolved review threads remain.

@coderabbitai review

Merged current main (d4d5d12) into this branch in 2fd8caa. The task count matches main: the visible label was already removed there. The stale comparison image and description have been corrected; this PR only changes the progress-bar breakpoint for task summaries. Clone banners retain their original layout and ghost buttons.

@Bil0000 I reviewed the current effective diff from merge base d4d5d12e8b.

ComposerTasksBadge now shows task-progress segments when the banner container is at least 560px wide. The numeric task count remains unchanged.

The project-clone banner action definitions are unchanged. The existing ghost Retry button remains intact.

I found no new review findings.

Merges `pingdotgg/t3code` `6d1d549441..9946541` (50 commits) into the
fork.

Landed 304 files against 303 in the upstream range — the extra one is
`docs/fork/inventory.json`. Fork delta is 777 files, unchanged from the
last
merge. Everything upstream changed landed.

Six conflicts, each resolved with the verdict `preflight.mjs` printed;
five were
a single hunk. Details and reasoning are in
[the merge tracker](docs/fork/upstream-merge-log.md). The two worth
reading here:

- **`ChatView.tsx`** — pingdotgg#12306 added `activeWorktreePath !== null` to the
"Revert
  files too" button, on the line the fork gates with
`FEATURES.checkpointFileRestore`. Kept both as a conjunction: upstream's
condition is about a shared workspace, the fork's is about what Moatless
  serves, and they answer different questions.
- **`FilePreviewPanel.tsx`** (the one `decide`) — pingdotgg#10909 restructured
the file
read so a folder is knowable as a folder, adding `isDirectory` /
`previewPath`.
Took that whole and re-stated the fork's `onRetargetFile` effect on top.

`apps/web/src/routeTree.gen.ts` was regenerated rather than
hand-resolved.

One judgement call: pingdotgg#11598's new `/settings/storage` page is
deliberately **not**
given a `FEATURES` gate. It self-gates on two new capability booleans
Moatless
does not report and renders an explanatory notice, so a fork flag would
duplicate
a decision the wire already makes — and would have to be deleted again
the day
the capability is reported.

## Usable as-is

- Diff files open from a right-click context menu (pingdotgg#11842).
- Sidebar filtering from the thread menu (pingdotgg#8719).
- Command palette matches thread IDs (pingdotgg#11185).
- Mobile settings are easier to navigate and scope (pingdotgg#12272); favorites
in the
  mobile model picker (pingdotgg#12231).
- Thoughts collapse within tool groups (pingdotgg#12302); thoughts and failed
tool calls
  stay in one activity row (pingdotgg#12270).
- Folder links from chat open the file tree instead of a broken preview
(pingdotgg#10909).
- Chat no longer jumps when the scroll-to-end pill mounts (pingdotgg#12317);
numbered
jumps no longer steal browser tabs (pingdotgg#12315); composer banners stay
compact
  (pingdotgg#12166).
- A large batch of shared-component refactors across web and mobile
(pingdotgg#12353pingdotgg#12371).

## Unsupported in Moatless / needs implementation

- **Pull request files marked as viewed** (pingdotgg#7721) — adds
`pullRequests.filesViewed` and `pullRequests.setFilesViewed`, which
record
which files a reviewer has checked off, persisted server-side. Both
declare
  `PullRequestRpcError` and so arrived already refusing;
`unsupported-methods.mjs` reported ADD 0 / DROP 0 as a result. Closes
with the
  rest of the `pullRequests.*` group, not separately.
- **Multi-model threads in separate worktrees** (pingdotgg#12179) — one prompt
starts a
thread per selected model, each in its own worktree. The model picker is
the
same `worktree` send-mode control `FEATURES.worktreeSelection` already
gates,
  so the fan-out is simply not offered. The same commit adds a
  `requiredWorktreeBootstrap` capability the backend does not report.
- **Automatic storage cleanup settings** (pingdotgg#11598) — the
`/settings/storage` page,
gated by the backend's absent `storageCleanup` and
`projectWorktreeCleanup`
  capabilities. Needs the sweeper below before the page means anything.
- **Command palette entries for the pull requests and usage pages**
(pingdotgg#12211) —
  the PR half is covered by `FEATURES.pullRequestSurface`.

## Backend behavior to consider reproducing in Moatless

Eight items, recorded in full in [the gaps register](docs/fork/gaps.md)
under
_Runtime fixes upstream made to its own server_. Five are on the
checkpoint and
usage paths the previous merge already opened:

- **Reject a file rewind on a shared or nested-owner cwd** (pingdotgg#12306,
`CheckpointReactor.ts`) — a checkpoint holds the whole checkout, so
restoring
one erases a sibling's uncommitted work. Moatless isolates by sandbox,
but a
workspace with nested repositories has the same overlap inside one task.
- **Capture a checkpoint when the baseline lookup fails** (pingdotgg#12307) — the
case
  that silently leaves a turn with no restore point.
- **Move the file-search refresh off the checkpoint path** (pingdotgg#12308) — it
  extended every capture by an index walk.
- **Survive an empty nested repository, and clear a stale index lock**
(pingdotgg#12181,
`GitVcsDriver.ts`) — git cannot stage an embedded repository until it
has a
commit. The lock half matters most here: forced termination is the
normal end
  of a sandboxed task.
- **Bound the provider event log before serialization** (pingdotgg#12305,
`EventNdjsonLogger.ts`) — otherwise it grows proportionally to tokens
streamed.
- **Keep usage totals across transcript cleanup** (pingdotgg#12304,
`UsageService.ts`) and
  **resolve a contested fingerprint to the newest scan** (pingdotgg#10315,
  `usageMerge.ts`). Moatless serves `server.getUsageSummary` itself.
- **Pass provider image attachments by path** (pingdotgg#11050,
`CodexAdapter.ts`) — the
turn/start request stops scaling with attachment size. A sandbox adds a
hop, so
  an oversized request costs more there.
- **Sweep stale worktrees and transcripts against retention rules**
(pingdotgg#11598,
`storageCleanup.ts`, with a workspace lease so two servers cannot sweep
the
same directory). A sandbox per task bounds the worktree half;
transcripts
  outlive the sandbox.

## Verification

`verify.mjs` — all 9 checks green on the first full pass, tests included
(333 test files, 5071 tests). No flaky retries and no caveats.

Contract drift: ADD 0 / DROP 0, so `packages/contracts/src/rpc.ts`
needed no
change. The `orchestration-decode-boilerplate` duplicate-add exception
went stale
— the colliding line is gone — and was deleted from `inventory.json` in
this
merge.

Owned-concern sweep: the three new
`apps/mobile/src/features/connection/` files
are false positives, all upstream extracting shared mobile components
out of
files it already owned, with no fork delta in any of them.
