Description

Summary

A url argument to hide all but the Input/Output panes (and about button) could be useful to allow CyberChef to be embedded in other pages. This would make it a lot easier for users to use recipes from websites, as the operation and recipe panes can be quite confusing. A link could also be added to open the actual recipe in CyberChef seperately (to edit the recipe).

Example

Page shown is at https://fileshare.infra.link/Numberwang/, but due to XSS I can't hide these panes from the parent page, so the screenshot shows what happens if you remove the panes and the notice.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how to add a URL parameter (e.g., '?hidePanes=operations,recipe') to toggle visibility of Operations and Recipe panes. Look at the existing UI state management and URL handling in the codebase.
