Research direction

Start by reproducing this in the VS Code extension: archive one chat, then immediately try to archive the next. Inspect the thread archive icon and the "Archived chat" overlay behavior in the relevant extension UI; the issue does not identify a file or test. Done means the overlay no longer blocks archiving another thread without first dismissing it.
