Auto-Activate Branched Chats in Sidebar

Add an optional setting that automatically activates branched chats so they appear in the sidebar immediately after branching. Currently, branches remain hidden until the user sends a message, which makes managing multiple workflows difficult and breaks the expectation that a branch behaves like a new conversation. A toggle such as “Auto-activate branches in sidebar” would preserve the current default while supporting advanced users who rely heavily on branching.

This makes sense. I can see how it’s confusing when a branch doesn’t show up in the sidebar right away, especially if you’re using branching to manage multiple workflows.

An optional toggle like that feels like a reasonable way to support power users without changing the default behavior.

Appreciate you calling this out and explaining the use case clearly.
