Steps to reproduce

  1. Run T3 Code desktop v0.0.33 on macOS.
  2. Ensure the new default sidebar is active: Settings > General > Legacy features > Sidebar (legacy) is off.
  3. Create or open any thread.
  4. Right-click the thread in the sidebar.
  5. Inspect the available actions.

The menu offers Settle or Un-settle, Snooze, Rename, and Delete, but no Archive action.

Expected behavior

The default sidebar should expose an Archive action for a thread, either in its right-click menu or as a row action.

Archive should remain distinct from Settle and Delete: it should remove the thread from the sidebar while preserving its conversation under Settings > Archived threads.

Actual behavior

There is no way to archive a thread from the default sidebar. Delete is the only action that removes it from the sidebar, but Delete permanently clears the conversation.

Settle is not equivalent: the thread remains visible in the Settled shelf and may have been settled automatically rather than explicitly archived.

Archiving is still supported elsewhere in the product. Settings > Archived threads remains available, and switching to the legacy sidebar restores the Archive button. PR #5672 made the new sidebar the default but did not document Archive as intentionally removed or replaced.

Issue #4765 is adjacent, but it concerns bulk clearing the Settled shelf rather than the missing per-thread Archive action.

Impact

Minor bug or occasional failure
