A thread left at its end reopens with a jump to the end computed from estimated row sizes. Rows then measure taller, and LegendList only re-pins when its last end check (which can still reflect the previous thread's scroll position) was within a viewport of the end. The view stays above the newest message with the pill hidden. Restore to the end through the same reconcile loop as a saved reading position: keep correcting to the real end until it holds for two frames, capped at 30 frames so a still-growing thread hands over to end maintenance. The reconcile loop also stopped for good when the saved row had not mounted on its first frame, leaving the thread restoring with scroll tracking off. It now retries within the same cap. ChatView reset live-follow for the new thread in a passive effect, so the switching render carried the previous thread's flag and could run the new thread's first row measurements with end maintenance off. Reset it during the switching render instead. Refs pingdotgg#12372, pingdotgg#5903

ApprovabilityVerdict: Would Approve Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — This is a focused web bug fix that adjusts existing thread-switch scroll restoration and live-follow timing, with targeted tests and no schema, infrastructure, or sensitive-path changes. An unresolved Medium finding identifies a short-thread underflow during the reconciliation window, which remains a concrete correctness risk. Not approved because:

I'm working on additional cleanups and simplifications for this. |
The restore effect depended on `rows`, so every streamed row restarted it and reset its frame cap. Returning to a streaming thread snapped to the end on each chunk and kept scroll tracking off until the stream paused. The effect now depends on whether rows exist and on the saved row's index. A gesture during a restore to the end now only stops the restore. ChatView's own listeners decide whether it leaves the end, so wheeling down or clicking at the bottom no longer switches following off for good. When the frame cap runs out on a restore to the end, the list jumps to the current end first, so end maintenance (which re-pins only within a viewport of the end) can take over. The thread-switch effect sets the follow flag again, and the render-phase reset starts from the mounted thread instead of an extra render.

@coderabbitai Applied the test nit in 1430201: the saved row now sits 100px down the content, and "finishes restoring a reading position when the saved row mounts a frame late" asserts The docstring coverage warning does not apply here: this repo has no docstring requirement, and the changed code documents its reasoning in inline comments like the surrounding code. |
|
The cleanups are pushed in 1430201: one restore per thread switch while rows stream in, gestures during a restore to the end no longer switch following off, and the restore hands over from the current end when its frame cap runs out. The description is updated to match. |

What Changed
Returning to a thread now lands where you left it. Previously it could stop above the newest message, with no scroll-to-end pill, until you scrolled.
MessagesTimeline.tsx): the jump to the end is based on estimated row heights. When rows measure taller afterwards (code blocks, tool output, images), the real end moves down. LegendList only re-pins within a viewport of the end, so a jump that lands further short than that stays there, and the pill stays hidden because the view is still considered at the end. The end restore now goes through the same reconcile loop a saved reading position already used: keep correcting to the real end until it holds for two frames.THREAD_RESTORE_MAX_FRAMES). A restore to the end then jumps to the current end before handing over to normal end maintenance, so a thread still streaming lands within re-pin range. The restore effect no longer depends onrows, so streamed rows do not restart it or reset the cap.ChatView.tsx): live-follow for the new thread was reset in a passive effect, so the first render of the new thread carried the previous thread's flag. After scrolling up in one thread and switching, the new thread's first row measurements ran with end maintenance off. The flag is now also reset during the switching render, and initialised from the saved position on mount.Why
Refs #12372 and #5903. This fixes the thread-switch stranding at its source, so no after-the-fact pill re-check is needed. Send-time anchoring and disclosure settles still switch end maintenance off by design, so this does not claim to close either issue. #5905 overlaps with the follow-state reset. This replaces #12376, which added a post-settle pill check instead.
