Note

Low Risk
UI and transcript scroll UX only; behavior is covered by new/updated unit tests with no auth, data, or security impact.

Overview
Desktop transcript scroll chips get a flatter look: bordered muted pills with up/down icons, tighter insets (1.5rem), and top chips anchored at the top instead of only bottom-offset styling. Gradient, shadow, and scale hover effects are removed; floating-chat CSS nudges the bottom chip offset to 3.75rem.

Scroll behavior changes so manual “scroll away” isn’t lost when a session toggles inactive/active: useScrollDetection takes currentActive and only resets auto-scroll on re-activation if the user hadn’t scrolled away. useAutoScroll re-pins when auto-scroll turns back on and skips resize-driven snaps when auto-scroll is off, so new transcript content doesn’t yank the viewport after the user scrolled up.

Windows Swift floating bar aligns its bottom chip with the same flat capsule styling (“Go to bottom”), drops extra shadow/padding, and simplifies scroll pinning observers (bounds-only).

Chat hover chip clearance removed

Medium Severity

When the bottom data-chat-cta-trigger is hovered or focused, --transcript-scroll-chip-bottom now matches the default 3.75rem instead of the previous 5rem. The expanded chat bar and the transcript scroll chip can overlap, making either control harder to tap while both are visible.

schedule treats enabled as force

High Severity

In useAutoScroll, schedule’s first parameter is force, but the new calls pass enabled. When auto-scroll is on, that becomes schedule(true), which skips the enabled and isPinned() guards and always jumps to the bottom on dependency updates and resizes, even if the user is not pinned.
