Problem

Thread cards used three text rows: project, thread title, and branch. The project icon already identifies the project, so the repeated project name consumed vertical space without adding much value.

Change

  • Move the thread title next to the project icon on the first row.
  • Keep the branch and existing indicators on the second row.
  • Preserve the project name in the detailed tooltip and accessible label.
  • Reduce the card content height from 78 px to 60 px without changing thread actions or compact/search variants.

Test plan

  • vp test run apps/web/src/components/Sidebar.logic.test.ts — 167 tests passed.
  • Web TypeScript check passed.
  • Targeted formatting and git diff --check passed.
  • Verified in the web client with isolated production-like data: title, status, branch, actions, truncation, and 60 px card height.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Improvements

    • Streamlined sidebar thread cards into a more compact single-line header.
    • Thread titles now display draft, project, regeneration, and pin indicators together.
    • Reduced card height to show more threads in the sidebar.
  • Accessibility

    • Added descriptive labels combining thread titles with project names.
    • Screen readers now receive thread status details, including drafts, pinned state, title regeneration, and terminal activity.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The sidebar card row now uses a shorter header. It displays the thread title with its indicators, removes the separate title row, and exposes combined draft, pin, regeneration, status, and terminal information to assistive technology.

Changes

Sidebar card row

Layer / File(s) Summary
Accessible status contract
apps/web/src/components/Sidebar.logic.ts, apps/web/src/components/Sidebar.logic.test.ts
formatSidebarThreadAccessibleStatus combines active card states into a comma-separated description and returns null when no state is active. Tests cover both results.
Compact card header and sizing
apps/web/src/components/Sidebar.tsx
The title and indicators now render in the header. The separate title row was removed, and card sizing was reduced.
Card accessibility wiring
apps/web/src/components/Sidebar.tsx
The accessible name combines the thread title and project name. A generated screen-reader-only description contains the active card states.

aria-label to add an aria-describedby reference for a concise status summary,
preserving statuses such as “Unsent draft,” “Pinned,” and “Working.” Keep the
current thread/project accessible name unchanged and ensure the referenced
status element has a stable unique identifier.
