Research direction

Start in the Agents Window Sessions list and review the linked pull requests for the implemented progress ownership and F2 rename changes. Exercise expanded and collapsed session rows, nested chat rows, context menus, keyboard-only navigation, blank and cancelled renames, accessible status text, and a virtualized row after scrolling; done means every listed behavior matches its visible state and target.

Description

agents-window feature-request verification-needed

Verify progress ownership and the completed F2 rename improvements in the Agents Window Sessions list.

Verification:

  1. Open a session with a main chat and at least one nested chat.
  2. Start work in a nested chat while the session is expanded. Verify progress is shown on that chat row rather than redundantly on the parent session row.
  3. Collapse the session while the nested chat is still running. Verify the hidden child progress is summarized on the parent row.
  4. Start work owned by the main chat and verify its progress remains visible on the parent session row in both expanded and collapsed states.
  5. Verify the accessible status text describes the same owner and state shown visually.
  6. Focus a session row and press F2. Verify inline rename starts for that session, accepts a valid title, and restores focus afterward.
  7. Focus a nested chat row and press F2. Verify inline rename targets that chat rather than its parent session.
  8. Open the session-header and nested-chat context menus. Verify Rename displays the F2 keybinding and invokes the correct target.
  9. Try a blank title, cancel a rename, and rename a virtualized row after scrolling. Verify validation is visible, cancellation preserves the old title, and the editor remains attached to the correct row.
  10. Repeat relevant steps with keyboard-only navigation.
