Narrowing the iPad sidebar leaves the floating tab bar at its preferred width, so it extends into the chat composer. Cap the iPad bar at 280 points, the native sidebar's minimum width, and constrain it to the available width. This also tightens the spacing between the icons.

Verified on a 13-inch iPad Air simulator (iOS 26.5): reproduced the overlap by dragging the sidebar narrower, then confirmed the fix in landscape and portrait and switched between Chats, Usage, and Settings. iOS 27 was not verified. vp run check:changed passes; React Doctor reports 100/100. This is a visual layout fix, so the screenshots are the regression evidence.

Implemented and verified with gpt-6-astra through the Codex harness in T3 Code.
