[FEATURE]: Replace top tab bar with a sidebar session list to prevent accidental session loss #48802
Closed as duplicate
Description
## Title: Tab-based UI causes accidental session deletion
The top tab system (instead of a sidebar stack, which is standard in AI chat UIs) leads to session loss. I just lost a session while trying to switch to it — I accidentally clicked the close button (X) that appears on hover. It's extremely easy to hit the X by mistake, and then the entire long session is deleted with no way to recover it.
Suggestion: Replace the tab bar with a sidebar session list (stack), like most other AI chat interfaces use. This would prevent accidental deletions and make session management much more intuitive.
