Description
A follow-up to #507.
In there, it was brought up that:
The problem is the sidebar is too narrow and it would require to redesign the chat UI to make it fit such narrow space. If the sidebar width could be adjusted then maybe.
But we now want a general redesign of the Assistant anyway, and it should accommodate thin windows (mobile) anyway.
I'm opening this issue to keep track of things for now, but there are not many concrete details yet. What I'm sure of is that this is something which would need upstream coordination with server/vue for performance and expectations from other apps, and that apps should ideally give as much context of what's currently on-screen to the Assistant as possible.
Here is a mockup for a general direction:
