DSH Auto Work Details

A small browser-side DSH plugin that expands a running work-detail group at the standard height and folds that group when its segment finishes.

Behaviour

• Always on while the bundle is enabled; the plugin has no Settings entry.
• Only the conversation that owns the current composer is observed. Switching chats disposes the old observer and installs a new one for the active session; leaving Chat unmounts it.
• While a process group is running ([data-shimmer] is present on its header), a collapsed group is opened once through the native header click. That path uses Chat's own initialize('bottom') and follow logic, so the standard height cap and bottom-following are preserved.
• When the group stops running, the group is closed once through the same native control.
• Manual toggles during the same running segment are not fought: the observer reacts only to the transition into and out of the running phase.
• The synthetic click suppresses the header's focus() call, so opening a group does not steal the caret from the composer.

Earlier versions exposed a switch that stored dsh-auto-work-details.enabled in localStorage; the plugin now removes that leftover key when it loads.

Limits

This is a DOM-level workaround, not a Chat extension point:

• It depends on Chat's internal [data-step-process], [data-chat-group-key], [data-shimmer], and aria-expanded markers.
• It only works in modes that render a process-group header (Standard and Compact); Detailed and Verbose have no running group header to toggle.
• An auto-close is skipped when Chat's focus protection decides the group must stay visible, or when a whole-Turn fold is already animating that group.
• A future Chat update can change these markers without notice.

Install

Install the directory as a DSH bundle into the target profile, for example:

dsh plugin --profile web add link:/Users/ibobby/Projects/dsh-plugin/dsh-auto-work-details

dsh plugin ... add links the package and also records @local/dsh-auto-work-details in the profile's dsh.profile.bundles; installing through the Plugin Manager performs the same steps.
