Research direction

The report concerns indicators in the chat list and their hover behavior; it does not name a file or test. Start by locating the chat list indicator and tooltip entry points, then check the hover interaction in the Codex app. Done means hovering over an indicator shows a tooltip that explains it.

What issue are you seeing?

There are indicators on the chat list, but when you hover they get replaced. This means I can't tell what they mean. I have my guesses, but I don't like guessing.
