Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reviewing the previous issue, github/app#2835, and locating the session and side-chat entry points in the desktop app. Trace where side chats are currently restricted to sessions with a PR, then define and test the behavior for sessions without one. Done means side chats are available in every session.
