# 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.
