The sidebar chat constrains messages, tool calls, diffs, and the composer to a centered --chat-readable-width lane. The current 78ch maximum feels narrow when tools and code blocks are displayed.

This bumps it to 88ch (~13% wider), which uses the available sidebar space more efficiently without pushing content to the edges.
