Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. First reproduce the crash by searching for an older message and opening its chat on version 0.75.0, then capture the failure details and trace the affected search-to-chat flow. Done means the chat opens without crashing for this scenario.

Description

Version: 0.75.0
