Research direction

Start with the thread.settle handler in apps/web/src/components/ChatView.tsx and compare it with the settle-and-navigate flow in apps/web/src/components/Sidebar.tsx, which calls planForwardNavigation. Check the thread menu action in apps/web/src/hooks/useThreadActionMenu.ts as well. Done means settling via the shortcut moves to the next active thread, or opens a new draft in the same project when none remain.

Before submitting
  • I searched existing issues and did not find a duplicate.
  • I included enough detail to reproduce or investigate the problem.
Area

apps/web

Steps to reproduce
  1. Open a thread in the active list of the sidebar (web or desktop).
  2. Press the thread.settle shortcut (mod+shift+s by default).
Expected behavior

The app settles the thread and opens the next active thread, the same as the sidebar Settle button or a drag onto the Settled header. If no active thread remains, it opens a new draft in the same project.

Actual behavior

The app settles the thread but keeps it open. To continue, you must select the next thread by hand.

The sidebar paths call planForwardNavigation (apps/web/src/components/Sidebar.tsx) before they settle and navigate after the settle succeeds. The shortcut handler in apps/web/src/components/ChatView.tsx (command === "thread.settle") calls settleThread only. Settle thread in the thread menu (apps/web/src/hooks/useThreadActionMenu.ts) also does not navigate.

Impact

Minor bug or occasional failure
