Description

UI for working with multiple repos, is terrible, and unsusable. Names of repositories are cutted, no paths in tooltip. if list is long it doesnt scale, the switch on of is hidden. The values are not resused when starting new chat, that is annoing. making this UI at modern stadard would make use of this mode 10 time better. as know it is so tedious that mental resitance is sugestting to avoid it

Research direction

Reproduce the multiple-repository flow at /chat in app version 1.1.15 on Windows 10 and inspect the repository selector and new-chat behavior. The report identifies clipped names, missing tooltip paths, poor long-list scaling, a hidden switch, and values not being reused; a concrete scope and acceptance criteria are still needed.
