+# Sidebar System Status Implementation Plan
+
+## Goal
+De-clutter the main chat by moving "System Status" messages (e.g., "Project Switched", "Current Root") to the Sidebar.
+
+## User Review Required
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> **Experience Change**: "Project Switched" messages will no longer appear in the chat history. They will update the "Project Info" section in the Sidebar.
+
+## Proposed Changes
+
+### 1. New State in `App`
+- **File**: `bin/opencode-ink.mjs`
+- **State**: `const [systemStatus, setSystemStatus] = useState(null);`
+- **Structure**: `{ message: string, type: 'success' | 'info', timestamp: number }`
+
+### 2. Modify `Sidebar` Component
+- **File**: `bin/opencode-ink.mjs`
+- **Addition**: A new "Project Info" box below the title.
+- **Render**: Display `project` path (truncated) and last status message.
+
+### 3. Redirect Messages
+- **Analysis**: Find where "Project Switched" is logged (likely `useEffect` on startup or `selectProject` handler).
+- **Change**: Replace `setMessages(...)` with `setSystemStatus(...)`.
+
+## Verification Plan
+1.  **Startup Test**:
+    - Launch TUI. 
+    - Verify "System is now rooted..." appears in Sidebar, NOT in chat.
+2.  **Switch Test**:
+    - Select a new project.
+    - Verify status updates in Sidebar.
