What's included

  • Sidebar shows "No projects" after an update, crash or unexpected Windows restart, while the state database and project/list still hold the projects
  • Global state file fails to load (null-byte JSON parse errors) and is saved back with an empty local-projects list
  • Chats move to Recents or projects expand to "No chats"; migration checkpoint shows threadAssignmentsMigrated=false
  • list_threads returns projectId null for a chat placed in a project; move_thread_to_project reports success but readback is unchanged
  • A project chat is visible on desktop but missing from mobile Remote project views and search
  • Chats belonging to a project show both under the project and in Recents, including CLI-created ones, and persist after restart

Not included

  • Android Remote showing raw g-p- identifiers instead of saved project names
  • Loss of workspace files or repositories on disk
