On iPad the workspace tab pill (Chats, PRs, Usage, Settings) was an overlay pinned to the bottom left of the whole split view. Whenever the sidebar was hidden, by hand or by the inspector, the pill floated over the composer.

With native columns (iOS 26 and later) the sidebar column now draws the tabs itself, so they move and hide with it, including when UIKit's own swipe gesture hides the sidebar. The JS columns (iPadOS 18–25) keep the overlay but hide it whenever the sidebar is hidden. Workspace pages that cover the sidebar, such as Usage, keep their tabs.

Before (sidebar hidden): the pill covers the composer's left end. Before: iPad with the sidebar hidden, tab pill over the composer

After: left, the pill in the sidebar; right, the sidebar hidden and the composer clear. After: tabs in the sidebar, and gone with it

Not checked on a device: the iPadOS 18–25 JS-column path. The pool's iOS 18.6 iPad wasn't available.

Part of the workspace split. Stacked on #27218.

Opus 5.5 via Claude Code in T3 Code.

Approvability

Verdict: Needs Human Approval

Macroscope's review found this PR requires human approval β€” The change makes iPad workspace tabs move and hide with the native sidebar. An unresolved review concern identifies potentially inaccessible tabs in the iPadOS 18–25 medium JS layout; that path needs validation or an adjusted tab placement.

Walkthrough

The iOS workspace layout can render sidebar tabs in the primary column on iPad. Floating tabs are hidden when sidebar-column tabs are enabled or when the specified iPad split-view sidebar conditions apply.

Changes: iPad Sidebar Tabs

Layer / File(s)Summary
Sidebar tab visibility and footer behavior
apps/mobile/src/features/workspace/WorkspaceNativeTabs.ios.tsx
WorkspaceNativeTabs adds tabsInSidebarColumn and updates when floating tabs render. The exported WorkspaceSidebarTabsFooter derives compact mode and conditionally supplies startNewTask.
Primary-column footer integration
apps/mobile/src/features/layout/createWorkspaceStackNavigator.ios.tsx, apps/mobile/src/features/workspace/WorkspaceNativeTabs.ios.tsx
ColumnScreen accepts and renders a footer. On iPad, WorkspaceStackView supplies a 128-point-high footer to the primary column and enables sidebar-column tabs when native columns are active and the workspace is not on its workspace page.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

On medium-width iPadOS 18–25 windows, workspace tabs can become inaccessible behind the sidebar. This should be addressed before merging.

Keep tabs accessible in the medium JS layout.

On iPadOS 18–25, a 600–719pt window uses the JS split layout. Opening a thread hides the floating sidebar and the overlay tabs. When the sidebar opens again, it renders above the content pane and can cover that overlay. Render WorkspaceSidebarTabsFooter inside the JS sidebar instead of the content overlay.
