A lot of people miss the "group sidebar by project" layout from other apps. The new sidebar is a flat inbox, and the only way back to folders was the hidden "Sidebar (legacy)" toggle in Labs. That kept a whole second sidebar (3.7k lines) alive, in the old look, outside the new keyboard tree.

This adds Boring sidebar (group by project) under Settings → Labs → Beta and deletes the legacy sidebar. Boring mode is the current sidebar in the new design, with folders.

Left to right: main, boring mode, a closed folder on hover, light mode.

main, boring mode, closed folder, light mode

Boring mode

Pinned threads stay on top. Active threads sit in a folder per project, in the existing project order and project grouping.
Snoozed and Settled keep the existing shelves at the bottom, with their paging.
Folder headers read like the shelf headers and use the shared row geometry: a colored project icon and a trailing chevron. A closed folder shows its count ("3 ›") and a dot when a hidden thread needs you.
Folder rows are one line and show the thread's status. Working and waiting rows stay quiet, like other rows.
Each folder has a new-thread button and a right-click menu: New thread, Copy path, Project settings.
Folders are part of the keyboard tree: Left and Right close and open a folder, Right moves into its threads, Left goes back to the folder, and Tab reaches its new-thread button.
The multi-project filter shows one folder per chosen project.
Folder open state reuses what the legacy sidebar saved.
Drag and the Working section are off in this mode. The new-thread button and shortcut start in the current project, like the legacy sidebar did.

Filtered to two projects

Settings → Labs

Legacy sidebar removed

Users who had the legacy sidebar on land in boring mode. Turning boring mode off also clears that old setting.
LegacySidebar.tsx, the "Sidebar (legacy)" row, the "Visible threads" setting, @formkit/auto-animate, and code only the legacy sidebar used are gone.

Web and desktop only. Mobile already groups by project in its own way.

Verified in a browser against a copy of real data: the Labs toggle, folders, closing a folder, the hover new-thread button, keyboard navigation through folders, a two-project filter, an empty project, and light and dark mode. vp run check:changed passes.

Restore device defaults leaves sidebarWorkingShelfEnabled unchanged, and the button is disabled when it is the only changed preference. The setting is still editable in BetaSettings.tsx and used by Sidebar.tsx, but it was removed from both the dirty-label check and the updateSettings reset payload; include it in both so restoring defaults resets the Working section.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at af4b1cb

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Adds opt-in project folders and moves legacy-sidebar users onto the shared sidebar, preserving folder expansion preferences. The default flat sidebar remains unchanged, and the change does not migrate or delete conversation data.

Walkthrough

The web sidebar now supports a setting-controlled mode that groups active threads into project folders. The change adds folder controls and status indicators, removes the legacy sidebar and preview-count setting, and updates related settings, tests, and documentation.

Changes: Project-folder sidebar

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Sidebar setting and controls `packages/contracts/src/settings.ts`, `apps/web/src/components/settings/*`, `apps/web/src/hooks/useSettings.ts`, `apps/web/src/shortcuts/chatRouteCommands.ts`, `docs/user/thread-sidebar.md`, `apps/desktop/src/settings/DesktopClientSettings.test.ts`	Client settings add `boringSidebarEnabled` and remove `sidebarThreadPreviewCount`. The Labs setting, settings search, shortcut condition, tests, and documentation reflect project-folder mode.
Project grouping and folder status `apps/web/src/components/Sidebar.logic.ts`, `apps/web/src/components/Sidebar.logic.test.ts`, `packages/client-runtime/src/state/projectGrouping.ts`	New helpers group threads by project, derive folder expansion keys, and resolve folder status dots. Tests cover grouping, expansion preferences, and status priority. `deriveProjectGroupingOverrideKey` is no longer exported.
Folder rendering and sidebar integration `apps/web/src/components/Sidebar.tsx`, `apps/web/src/components/sidebar/*`, `apps/web/src/components/AppSidebarLayout.tsx`, `apps/web/src/components/LegacySidebar.tsx`, `apps/web/package.json`	The sidebar renders active threads in project folders, retains folder expansion state, and adds folder actions and row styling. The app always renders `ThreadSidebar`; `LegacySidebar.tsx` and the auto-animate dependency are removed.

Web helper cleanup

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Helper exports and dependency cleanup `apps/web/src/connection/desktopLocal.ts`, `apps/web/src/hooks/useMediaQuery.ts`, `apps/web/src/state/use-orchestration-command.ts`, `apps/web/src/components/ThreadStatusIndicators.tsx`, `apps/web/src/components/ui/sidebar.tsx`	The WSL predicate, mobile hook, orchestration denial-message export, and two status-component exports are removed. The sidebar breakpoint comment now refers to `max-md`.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title "feat(web): boring sidebar groups threads into project folders" matches the main change in the changeset. The changeset adds a Boring sidebar mode that groups active threads into project folders and removes the legacy sidebar. The title is concise, uses a conventional commit prefix, and names the primary user-facing change. It does not mention the legacy sidebar removal, which is a significant secondary part of the diff.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description follows the template sections. It states the problem (the flat inbox lacks a folder layout, and the only folder view is the legacy sidebar). It describes the change in detail, including the legacy sidebar removal. It gives a scope statement that refers to a settings toggle under Labs, and it includes browser verification steps and a list of checks run. The Scope and approval section does not link a triaged issue or a maintainer approval comment. The template asks for a linked issue or discussion with explicit maintainer approval, or for an explanation of why the change qualifies without one. The PR objectives mention related discussion but not explicit maintainer approval of scope. The description also does not state the specific commands run beyond 'vp run check:changed'. Because most sections are complete, the check passes. The approval gap is noted in the resolution.

Resolution

Consider adding to the Scope and approval section a link to the triaged issue or the discussion with explicit maintainer approval, or an explanation of why the change qualifies without one. The description does not link either. Consider also stating which focused tests ran, beyond 'vp run check:changed'.

Keep review-guide model and instructions searches on Source Control.

The Beta page contains the Review guides switch, but not the model or instructions controls. Searches for Review guide model and Review guide instructions now open Beta and highlight that switch instead of reaching either control. The controls remain documented under Source Control in docs/user/source-control.md Lines 211–228. Restore their Source Control destinations and use anchors that exist there.

Keeping these on Beta. The model and instructions rows in Source Control only render while Review guides is on (SourceControlWritingSettings.tsx, the settings.reviewGuidesEnabled || mixedReviewGuidesEnabled guard). With guides off, a Source Control destination has no row to land on, which Macroscope flagged in the other direction. The switch that reveals them is on Beta, and main also pointed these results at that switch.

CcoderabbitaiBot19d ago

@t3dotgg Thanks for clarifying. When Review guides is off, the Source Control rows are absent, so my suggested destinations would have no control to target. Keeping these searches pointed at the Beta switch is intentional. I withdraw the finding.

Their controls in SourceControlWritingSettings.tsx render only when settings.reviewGuidesEnabled \|\| mixedReviewGuidesEnabled is true. A direct Source Control destination would have no corresponding row when Review guides is off.

Use the Button primitive for the folder “New thread” control.

This is an icon button covered by the shared primitive. Button size="icon-xs" variant="ghost-muted" supplies the shared sizing, styling, focus ring, and coarse-pointer target. Keep the folder-specific positioning and reveal behavior on a wrapper. The raw-element geometry exception does not apply to the control itself.

Preserve legacy expansion keys for grouped folders.

LegacySidebar resolved expansion from the logical key, all member physical keys, then all member legacy-CWD keys. Sidebar.tsx now checks only projectExpandedById[projectKey]. A saved member preference can therefore be ignored, and the first toggle can use the wrong effective state.

Use the same lookup for rendering and toggleProjectFolder. Preserve the old precedence order.

Extract this lookup into a helper and use it in toggleProjectFolder before calling setProjectExpanded.

A collapse saved under any of them stays collapsed. Covered by a new test in Sidebar.logic.test.ts.

I love it

Rrakeshvmehta18d ago

Would love to see this land. I moved over from Codex and the flat inbox is the main thing slowing me down. I organize by client and subject, not by recency, and my inbox-style lists never stay settled, so cards pile up fast. Project folders with one-line rows would fix most of that for me right away, and it pairs well with #15988 for grouping inside a single big project.

Ddiogovalada17d ago

Thanks for this. Folders are the reason I've kept using the legacy sidebar (#7917). T3 Code has a lot of users with different workflows, and the legacy sidebar let each of us pick grouping, sort order and list length. This brings grouping back, but drops most of that tuning. In order of importance:

Important

Sort threads. Let folders sort threads by Last user message or Created at, like the legacy sidebar, alongside the current inbox order. For example, I go back to older threads a lot and want the ones I'm using at the top.
A sort button in the sidebar header. The legacy ↕ menu put Sort projects, Sort threads and Visible threads one click away, and the group-by-project toggle would fit there too. Here, grouping is under Settings → Beta and project order is in Settings. Codex has a similar menu in its sidebar.
A way to set Manual project order. "Manual" is still a project order option, but dragging in the legacy sidebar was the only way to arrange it. After this PR the order is frozen. Dragging folders would fix that.

Nice to have

Compact rows everywhere. Rows inside folders are one line, but active threads outside folders use the three-line cards: everything when grouping is off, and pinned threads even when it's on. A one-line option for those would help (#17319).
A visible-thread limit per folder. Like the legacy "Visible threads" setting: show N threads per folder, with the rest behind "Show more". Auto-settle helps over time, but a busy project can still push the others far down.

For reference, my prototype on the legacy sidebar has most of these: a group-by-project switch in the ↕ menu, both sort orders, compact rows in both modes, and the per-folder limit (screenshots and branch). Happy to help bring any of them to this sidebar.

Nnxtvoid14d ago

Thanks for this. I built a similar take on a fork while waiting, and a few details there might be worth borrowing. Screenshots below, happy to drop any that don't fit.

+1 to the visible-thread limit @diogovalada mentioned. Mine shows the first 5 threads per folder with View all (N more) / Show less at the bottom. The open thread stays visible even when it's past the cutoff.

Things I haven't seen raised yet:

"Show only this project" in the folder menu. It switches on the existing project filter, so you can go from the overview to one project and back without hunting for the filter button.
Pinned threads inside their folder. Pinning means "keep this handy," and with folders the place I look for it is its project. A separate pinned block above the folders brings back the mixed-project list.
"No project" first. Scratch threads tend to be quick, short-lived ones, and they're the hardest to find mid-list.
One-line rows when the detail line is empty. Threads without a branch, PR, or terminal fold the provider icon into the title line. They grow back to two lines as soon as one appears.

Handle a rejected contextMenu.show call in the folder menu.

The other context-menu handlers in this file wrap api.contextMenu.show in settlePromise. This handler awaits it directly inside a void (async () => ...)() call. If the IPC call rejects, the result is an unhandled promise rejection. Use settlePromise and return on failure, as handleDraftContextMenu does.

Exclude the visible route thread from hiddenThreads.

When a folder is collapsed, threads holds the open (route) thread. But hiddenThreads is set to all of folder.threads, so it also contains that open thread. SidebarProjectFolderHeader then shows a count that is one too high. Its status dot also includes the open thread, which is already visible as a row.

Set hiddenThreads to the threads that are not rendered.

Fixed in 3637b27d2d. hiddenThreads now drops the route thread, so a closed folder's count and dot only cover the threads it hides.

CcoderabbitaiBot11d ago

@t3dotgg The supplied code now excludes routeRowThreadKey from hiddenThreads while keeping the route thread visible. This addresses the count and status-dot issue.

Expose the folder status dot to assistive technology.

The dot is aria-hidden and has no text alternative. It is the only signal that a collapsed folder holds a thread that needs attention, failed, or has unread output. Screen reader users get only the folder name and the count.

Add visually hidden text next to the dot.

Based on learnings: decorative graphics may be hidden from assistive technology, but a graphic that carries status needs an accessible alternative.

Fixed in 3637b27d2d. The dot now holds an sr-only label (needs you, failed, done, working), so the folder's tree item announces it.

CcoderabbitaiBot11d ago

@t3dotgg Thanks for adding the sr-only status labels in 3637b27d2d. The reported change addresses this finding.

Explain when the Working section setting has no effect.

When project folders are active, this condition disables the Working shelf regardless of sidebarWorkingShelfEnabled. Settings → General still offers an enabled “Working section” switch and says it folds working threads. Disable that switch in boring mode, or state that it applies only to the flat sidebar.

Fixed in af4b1cb0ae. The Working section row now says the boring sidebar in Labs has no Working section. Kept the switch enabled: the setting still decides the flat sidebar, and it applies again as soon as boring mode is off.

@t3dotgg Verified. The description now states that the boring sidebar has no Working section. Keeping the switch enabled is valid because it still controls the flat sidebar. This addresses the finding.
