Clicking a file in a completed turn opened the sidebar with the selected file still collapsed. Route turn selections through the same expand-and-reveal path as the file tree, and record a reveal only once the file exists. This preserves sibling expansion choices and waits for asynchronous patches. Patch refreshes and viewer remounts do not replay an earlier file selection; clicking that file again explicitly reveals it.

Fixes #20100. Related: #15401.

Rebuilt from @NickAwrist's #20101, preserving the contributor's commits and merging main. The original three substitute-viewer tests were replaced with two tests using the real viewer and file tree (299 → 226 test lines).

Verification:

  • Regression on the main implementation: 1 failed, 1 passed; rebuilt implementation: 2 passed.
  • Related browser suites: 19 passed across 3 files; adjacent unit suites: 52 passed across 6 files.
  • Scoped web typecheck, lint, and formatting passed.
  • Two independent review rounds (Claude Opus 5.5 and Codex GPT-6-sol); no confirmed outstanding bugs. The first round removed the unnecessary whitespace-refresh reveal. The second round noted the intentional change to avoid replaying selections on viewer remounts.
  • Linux running-app check used an isolated completed-turn fixture with real Git checkpoint refs. Selecting beta.ts expanded its actual patch; selecting alpha.ts afterward kept beta.ts open. Browser tests additionally prove delayed patches, repeated selections, scope changes, manual sibling choices, scrolling, and expanded defaults. A review also removed an unnecessary repeat reveal when whitespace settings refresh the patch; this was verified live by collapsing the selected file and toggling whitespace.
  • macOS, Windows, iOS, Android, and the Electron shell were not verified. The web change is shared by desktop; mobile has a separate UI. No wire or server behavior changed.

Both captures use the same fixture, 1280×800 viewport, and collapsed default. This host's preview had missing font metrics; the same page-only Liberation Sans override was applied to both captures without changing application code.

Before: selected beta.ts stays collapsed.

Before: beta.ts remains collapsed

After: selected beta.ts expands.

After: beta.ts expands to show its changes

Recording: selecting files preserves the opened sibling

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at d122067

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — This is a localized one-file fix that makes an already-supported selected diff file expand and scroll into view, including lazy-loaded turn diffs, while preserving existing expansion defaults and other file states. It introduces no schema, deployment, product-default, or static-analysis changes.

📝 Walkthrough

DiffPanel now processes selected-file reveal requests for lazy and non-lazy diffs. Browser tests cover reveals during patch loading, expansion state across scope changes, and turns without a selected file.

Changes: Diff file reveal

Layer / File(s) Summary
Selected-file reveal and browser coverage
apps/web/src/components/DiffPanel.tsx, apps/web/src/components/DiffPanel.browser.test.tsx
revealDiffFile returns false when the path is absent and true after a successful reveal. The external reveal effect handles lazy and non-lazy diffs, deduplicates by collapse scope, path, and request ID, and records a key only after success. Browser tests cover checkpoint and Git-patch loading, sibling expansion states, scope changes, and turns without a selected file.

Explanation

Issue [#20100] requires the selected file in a completed turn to expand and scroll into view. DiffPanel.tsx now handles selected files for lazy and non-lazy diffs, expands the file, requests tree reveal after the file exists, and records the reveal only after success. The reveal key includes the collapse scope, path, and request ID. This preserves sibling expansion state and allows a new reveal after a scope change. DiffPanel.browser.test.tsx covers delayed turn data, delayed Git patches, sibling choices, collapsed and expanded defaults, repeated selections, and scope changes.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The production change is limited to apps/web/src/components/DiffPanel.tsx. The added browser tests cover the file expansion and reveal behavior required by issue [#20100]. The diff shows no unrelated capability, default, wire, or server change.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description explains the problem and implementation, links the relevant issues, and provides detailed verification results, limitations, screenshots, and a recording. It does not use the template headings or explicitly document maintainer approval or an approval exemption, but the required information is mostly present.

Taking over this one for batch worktree-git-13. I will rebuild the focused file-reveal fix on current main, reduce the tests to useful behavior coverage, and verify it before pushing to this branch.
