fix(web): screen readers say which thread a shortcut switched to#23676
Refs #23653
Problem
Switching threads with a shortcut (next/previous, Ctrl+1–9) moves focus into the composer, and the composer's label was just "Message". A screen reader read the same thing for every thread. Settling, cycling providers in the model picker, picking a model by number, and open in editor gave no spoken feedback at all. The settle notice had role="status", but it mounts already filled, and screen readers usually skip a live region that arrives with its text.
Fix
- Thread switches: the composer's label is now
Message <thread title>. A thread switch already moves focus there (unless the terminal drawer is open and keeps focus), so the screen reader names the thread from any entry point: shortcuts, sidebar clicks, the command palette, and the jump to the next thread after settling. This doesn't depend on timing. - Changes that don't move focus: a small
announce()helper (apps/web/src/lib/announce.ts) writes to one polite live region that stays in the page. It waits until focus has stopped moving for 250 ms, so NVDA reads it after the new focus instead of having it cut off. A newer message replaces one still waiting from the same source, and a cleared undo notice cancels its waiting message. It alternates between two nodes so the same message can be spoken twice in a row. It is called for:- the undo notice ("Settled 1 thread, ⌘Z to undo"; also Snoozed, Unpinned, Archived and Discarded)
- previous/next provider in the model picker ("Claude")
- model jump in the model picker ("Model: Claude Sonnet 5.5"), skipped while the picker is disabled
- open in preferred editor ("Opened in VS Code"), only after the editor actually opened, from both the picker and the fallback Ctrl/⌘+O handler that runs when no picker is mounted
Evidence
NVDA: the issue reporter tested this PR with NVDA on Windows and confirmed thread switching names the thread and settling says "Settled 1 thread, Ctrl+Z to undo" (comment).
VoiceOver: tested in a Chromium app window on macOS with VoiceOver, against dev servers on main and on this branch, both with the same test data. The steps were: next thread, previous thread, settle, open the model picker, next provider. The caption panel shows what VoiceOver said. Left is main, right is this branch:
Before (main), with VoiceOver audio:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/9fb04e22-a600-4daa-883e-b3d60c6653f2
After (this branch at e5f9852), with VoiceOver audio. Later commits only change cases the recording doesn't exercise (superseded, cancelled, disabled or refused announcements, and the fallback Ctrl/⌘+O handler):
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/6028db0e-e876-41fb-b57c-3604cc224590
What's not covered
- The settle confirmation in VoiceOver. Settling moves focus to the next thread, and VoiceOver in Chromium drops live region updates that arrive while it reads the newly focused element; assertive, or delayed by a few seconds, didn't help either. VoiceOver says which thread you land on, but not "Settled 1 thread". NVDA speaks both (see above).
- Model jump (Ctrl/⌘+1–9 in the picker) and open in editor are wired up but weren't exercised here: the browser keeps ⌘+digit, and opening an editor on the test host would change that machine's state. They use the same
announce()path as the provider cycle shown above. The reporter asked about open in editor in particular. The fallback Ctrl/⌘+O handler didn't announce before e7c531d, which may be what they hit; it's untested with NVDA. - The other shortcuts listed in the issue (pin, layout toggles, stash, effort, usage page) are unchanged.
- Mobile is not affected; it has its own composer and navigation.
Tests:
apps/web/src/lib/announce.browser.test.ts: waiting for focus to settle, joining messages, repeating a message, replacing or cancelling a waiting message.OpenInPicker.browser.test.tsx: Ctrl+O is silent when the open is refused and says "Opened in VS Code" when it succeeds, through both the picker and the fallback handler.SidebarThreadUndoNotice.browser.test.tsx: the notice is spoken, and a notice cleared before it is spoken stays silent.- Not covered by a test: model shortcuts staying silent while the picker is disabled (checked by reading
ProviderModelPicker, which ignores selections while disabled).

Approvability
Verdict: Needs Human Approval
Macroscope's review found this PR requires human approval — This PR adds screen-reader labels and announcements across thread switching, model selection, editor opening, and undo notices, backed by a new shared live-region queue. The behavior is focused and tested, but its cross-cutting production runtime and timing semantics warrant human review.

Do not announce a selection while the picker is disabled.
handleModelSelect returns the resolved slug after calling a void callback. ProviderModelPicker can reject that callback when props.disabled is true. The picker can remain open while providerCatalogPending || isSendBusy changes, so its window shortcut listener can still run. The shortcut then announces a model although the selected model did not change.
Pass the disabled state through getModelDisabledReason before resolving the shortcut:

✅ Addressed in commit 90005c0
Fixed in 90005c0: while the picker is disabled, every model reports a disabled reason, so a model shortcut neither selects nor announces.
@shivamhwp Thanks for fixing this in 90005c0. The disabled reason prevents model shortcuts from selecting or announcing a model while the picker is disabled.

Replace a pending undo notice when the notice changes.
If two thread actions update the notice within 250 ms, announce joins both summaries. The first “to undo” instruction is then stale: undoLatestThreadAction acts only on the latest notice. Replace the pending undo announcement when a new notice supersedes it, rather than queueing both.

hi. I have just tested the pr on NVDA and can confirm that the settle behaviour and thread switching works as expected. you now hear the following: Settled 1 thread, Ctrl+Z to undo when settling it and the thread switching works as expected. Could the other shortcuts be added as well? in particular the opening the editor one. If you want i would be happy to take over the pr, make the required fixes for the rest of the shortcuts and test using nvda to confirm that everything works.

A cleared undo notice can still be announced after the action has already been undone, leaving screen-reader users with a stale “to undo” message when the Undo button is gone. When summary becomes null, this effect does nothing to cancel the queued thread-undo-notice announcement; cancel that pending source when the notice disappears.

Fixed in b616357: when the notice clears, cancelAnnouncement("thread-undo-notice") drops the waiting message, so an undo within the wait isn't followed by a stale "to undo". Covered in announce.browser.test.ts.
Confirmed — the null-summary path cancels the pending announcement.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Cancel the pending announcement when the undo notice clears.
If the notice becomes null within the 250 ms delay, this effect leaves its pending message in announce. The live region then says “to undo” after the notice has disappeared. Add source-based cancellation to announce and call it when summary becomes null.

✅ Addressed in commit b616357
Already fixed in b616357: the effect calls cancelAnnouncement("thread-undo-notice") when summary becomes null, and announce.browser.test.ts covers it.
@shivamhwp Confirmed. The supplied code calls cancelAnnouncement("thread-undo-notice") when summary becomes null. This addresses the finding.

🟡 Minor · Announce thread switches while terminal focus is active. · ChatComposer.tsx:3759-3761
apps/web/src/components/chat/ChatComposer.tsx:3759-3761🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick winAnnounce thread switches while terminal focus is active.
The default
thread.previous,thread.next, and jump shortcuts reachnavigateToThreadwithout a terminal-focus guard. When the terminal remains focused, only the unfocused composeraria-labelchanges. No thread-title live-region announcement runs. Add the announcement in the shared navigation function, and limit it to terminal focus so normal composer-focus navigation is not announced twice.Suggested fix
