+## Answer-first chat presentation
+
+Implemented in version: **0.261.424**, recorded in
+`application/single_app/config.py`.
+
+Classic chat and React V2 keep the answer and its inline citations primary.
+The existing response-level Sources disclosure contains the saved-result
+browser: validation details, complete-record pages, evidence, diagnostics, and
+selection of a particular result for follow-up. Sources remains available even
+when a saved result contains no findings or the answer has no ordinary citations.
+The normal chat view no longer appends a result card for every Analyze step.
+
+Material limitations retain a compact warning that opens Sources. A routine
+structural-success disclaimer is not shown under every answer. Downloads remain
+supporting outputs in the conversation, and the Plan panel is unchanged.
+Closing Sources cancels pending findings/evidence reads; masking and conversation
+changes retain their existing context and visibility guards.
+
+Native comment inventory counts are not saved Analyze finding counts. A
+completed native inventory with zero comments remains evidence for that absence,
+whereas partial inventories and unavailable reads cannot establish it. See
+[chat presentation and evidence correction](../fixes/CHAT_ANALYSIS_PRESENTATION_AND_EVIDENCE_FIX.md).

+# Chat analysis presentation and evidence status fix (v0.261.424)
+
+Fixed/Implemented in version: **0.261.424**, coordinated with
+`application/single_app/config.py`.
+
+## Issue
+
+A cited chat answer could be followed by an Analyze step's result card containing
+saved-finding counts, structural-validation language, a follow-up action, and a
+findings disclosure. This duplicated the answer's visual hierarchy and exposed
+processing detail before the user asked to inspect it.
+
+An empty native comment inventory could also produce "No supporting document
+evidence returned" even though its complete inventory was itself cited to
+support "no comments were found."
+
+## Root cause
+
+Both chat renderers placed every saved-analysis descriptor directly after the
+answer. The browser was useful for inspecting all saved records, but its default
+placement made its counts look like a second verdict about the answer.
+
+Retained citation projection separately excluded native inventory coverage from
+the annotation-record count, then interpreted zero records as missing evidence.
+That lost the difference between a completed empty inspection and a search
+that returned no supporting passages. A saved Analyze finding count was a third,
+independent count, not the number of comments.
+
+## Technical changes
+
+| Area | Change |
+| --- | --- |
+| `application/v2_ui/src/components/chat/MessageList.tsx`, `MessageInspector.tsx`, `AnalysisResult.tsx` | Move saved-result browsing into the existing message Sources section without adding a replacement result card. |
+| `application/v2_ui/src/components/chat/MessageActions.tsx`, `EvidenceStatus.tsx`, `lib/savedAnalysis.ts` | Keep Sources keyboard state explicit, preserve access for unavailable results, and show compact material limitations rather than routine success details. |
+| `application/single_app/static/js/chat/chat-analysis-results.js`, `chat-messages.js` | Apply the same Sources placement in classic chat, including saved-result-only messages, cancellation on disclosure close, and masking. |
+| `application/single_app/functions_orchestration_result_runtime.py` | Classify native inspection from its retained per-source coverage, keeping annotation counts and separate producer outcomes intact. |
+| `application/single_app/config.py` | Record the application patch version. |
+
+Saved results still use the existing authorized readers and immutable result
+references. Pagination, evidence, diagnostics, explicit follow-up selection,
+downloads, and multiple results from an interrupted plan remain available.
+There is no new route, setting, storage resource, or dependency.
+
+Classic chat binds Sources and warning controls to UI-owned nodes rather than
+matching class names inside sanitized answer HTML. A denied or stale V2 result
+also keeps its safe explanation when Sources is closed and reopened, without
+briefly presenting it as an available result again.
+
+Native coverage must identify the inspected document and comments section,
+provide valid counts, and explicitly establish a complete inventory without
+partial, continuation, or limit flags. Uncertain coverage cannot certify an
+empty inventory. Partial native inspection remains partial even if no complete
+annotation record fits the retained subset.
+
+The projection still checks the exact producer and retained digest. Source and
+conversation authorization boundaries are unchanged; status classification does
+not reread the original file.
+
+## Before and after
+
+| Scenario | Before | After |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Successful Analyze answer | A second result card competes with the answer. | The answer and inline citations remain primary; saved findings open through Sources. |
+| Complete empty native comment inventory | A cited inventory can still receive a missing-evidence warning. | Completed empty coverage supports the absence claim without inflating the annotation count. |
+| Truncated native inventory | Zero retained annotation records can look like missing evidence. | Explicit partial coverage remains partial. |
+| Separate Search gap | Counts can be combined without preserving the producer's outcome. | A completed inventory does not conceal another retained Search outcome. |
+| Unavailable saved analysis | Hiding the entire action footer can hide the explanation entry point. | Unsafe result actions stay unavailable while Sources remains reachable. |
+
+## Validation
+
+The original regressions were reproduced with the real retained-result readers:
+completed empty Word/Excel inventories were labelled `missing`, and a
+resource-limited inventory could also be labelled `missing` rather than `partial`.
+
+Regression coverage includes:
+
+- `functional_tests/test_orchestration_attachment_native_evidence.py`: real
+  Word/Excel readers, empty/nonempty inventories, reopened evidence, and partial
+  or unavailable inspections.
+- `functional_tests/test_orchestration_search_citations.py`: separate producer
+  outcomes and conservative handling of uncertain native coverage.
+- `functional_tests/test_evidence_status.py`: existing aggregation, sanitization,
+  export notices, and per-answer scoping.
+- `ui_tests/test_chat_saved_analysis.py`: both clients' Sources placement,
+  zero-record results, pagination, evidence, follow-ups, downloads, retries,
+  masking, stream/history behavior, cancellation on closing Sources, and
+  preservation of answer HTML containing control-like class names.
+- `ui_tests/test_v2_evidence_status.py`: complete-empty and genuinely limited
+  evidence states across narrow/wide and light/dark layouts.
+
+The browser tests use the shared local/Azure Playwright connection and
+deterministic transport; they do not qualify a live model or deployment.
+The supplied live conversation required sign-in, so this fix does not claim
+to have independently inspected that original file.
+
+### Verified checks
+
+For the native harness suites, set the application and functional-test import
+paths before running pytest from the repository root:
+
+```powershell
+$env:PYTHONPATH = "$PWD\application\single_app;$PWD\functional_tests;$PWD"
+```
+
+| Check | Result |
+| --- | --- |
+| `python -m pytest .\functional_tests\test_orchestration_attachment_native_evidence.py .\functional_tests\test_orchestration_search_citations.py .\functional_tests\test_evidence_status.py -q` | 116 passed |
+| `python -m pytest .\ui_tests\test_chat_saved_analysis.py .\ui_tests\test_v2_evidence_status.py -q` | 96 passed |
+| `python -m pytest .\ui_tests\test_chat_saved_analysis.py -k classic -q` | 39 passed after the final classic DOM-ownership hardening, including its additional regression |
+| `npm --prefix .\application\v2_ui run typecheck` and `npm --prefix .\application\v2_ui run build` | Passed |
+| `python .\functional_tests\test_docs_app_surface_coverage.py` and `python .\functional_tests\test_docs_site_quality.py` | 7 coverage checks and 6 quality checks passed |
+| `python .\scripts\check_cosmos_response_boundaries.py` | No review gaps |
+
+Both changed classic JavaScript modules also passed `node --check`. The
+repository XSS scanner's added-line inspection found no issues in the ten
+changed application files. Desktop/mobile and light/dark browser inspection
+confirmed that normal answers have no analysis card and that saved findings
+remain usable in Sources. The full-file design detector's existing typing-dot
+animation and dynamic-image/comment matches were reviewed without changing
+unrelated interface behavior or adding suppressions.
+
+## Compatibility and limitations
+
+The Sources placement applies when existing messages are rendered again.
+Stored historical evidence metadata is not rewritten or dismissed based on
+citation presence. Corrected status classification applies when the retained
+result lineage is projected; it does not retroactively rerun old conversations.
+
+A complete comment inventory does not prove that the body text was available
+or that a broader analysis found every issue. Actual evidence gaps and material
+validation limitations remain visible.
+
+See [saved Analyze results](../features/ANALYZE_RESULTS.md) and
+[reading and discussing results](../../guides/analyze-results.md).
