Hello,

I noticed that reloading the page resets all workspaces to their default collapsed state, so the UI forgets which workspaces I had expanded. It would be great if the expansion state of the workspaces were remembered across page reloads.

Acceptance criteria:

  • The expanded/collapsed state of each workspace is persisted and restored after a page reload
  • Workspaces that were expanded before the reload appear expanded after it
  • Workspaces that were collapsed before the reload remain collapsed

Thanks for considering this!

Best regards,
Joshua Krimmer

  1. 🟣 #134 Sidebar: workspace chat list not visible until clicking folder chevron
    This issue is about the same workspace expansion behavior in the sidebar. It reports that workspaces do not auto-expand when navigating or loading the workspace, which is closely related to persisting/restoring expanded state across reloads.

  2. 🟣 #230 Issue #230
    This open feature request involves workspace/sidebar management in the same area of the UI. While it is broader and not specifically about expansion persistence, it may touch the same sidebar state handling and workspace presentation logic.
