Summary

• Adds a quick chat window to the desktop app: a global shortcut opens a small chat that floats above every other app until you close it, and pressing it again hides it with the conversation intact
• On macOS it is a panel window, so it shows over full-screen apps and on every Space without pulling the main Sim window forward
• Loads the web app's compact chat surface (the one the browser extension's side panel frames), scoped to the workspace or organization you were last in; "Open in Sim" hands the chat to a full window
• The window gets no preload bridge, so it reports no device capabilities and the agent never drives the browser, terminal, or apps from a window sitting on top of them
• Shortcut is a desktop setting (Off, ⌥ Space, ⇧⌘ Space, ⇧⌘J); defaults to ⌥ Space on macOS and Ctrl+Shift+J elsewhere, and settings say when another app already holds it. Also reachable from the File menu and the menu-bar item
• The window is destroyed on sign-out with the rest of the account's state
• The compact chat route now renders on deployments without the browser extension configured; with no extension origins the proxy's frame-ancestors 'none' still keeps it unframeable
• Bridge additions are optional, so installed shells stay compatible (check:desktop-bridge passes)

Type of Change

• New feature

Testing

• New apps/desktop/e2e/quick-chat.spec.ts (real shell against a fixture origin): opens scoped to the last workspace as an always-on-top window, gets no desktop bridge while full windows keep it, Open in Sim opens a full window and leaves the panel open, toggle brings a background panel forward then hides it with the page kept, sign-out destroys it
• desktop-settings, ipc, menu, tray unit suites and the desktop settings component test pass
• Desktop and desktop-bridge type-check, check:desktop-bridge, biome on changed files

Checklist

• Code follows project style guidelines
• Self-reviewed my changes
• Tests added/updated and passing (new tests pass the test-audit authoring gate)
• No new warnings introduced
• I confirm that I have read and agree to the terms outlined in the Contributor License Agreement (CLA)
