Chat response: search response is inconsistent

[bpasero]

Notice how I get 2 different renderings for when a search was performed. I would just use the ✅ for both.

Another good example:

In the case with the twistie, you have results that you can view. In other cases, there is nothing to expand. Would you double up on icons? Benjamin Pasero (@bpasero)

SteVen Batten (@sbatten) I would still allow to expand, but just show the ✅ so that it visually looks the same. I am not sure expanding the results is a common enough action.

[sbatten]

Like so?

SteVen Batten (@sbatten) I was more referring to this:

Now simply imagine the 2nd entry having a checkmark instead of a twistie. You can still click to expand. If we feel strong, we could show a twistie on hover at the end (Codex does that).

Oh, maybe you commented in the wrong issue? I think you meant to post in #273029 ?

[sbatten]

I intended this issue, I was just using the thinking tool rendering as the example from my prototype. They are both expandable widgets in the chat that have a progress spinner turned twistie. Here I show it rendering with a check. Clicking that will collapse/expand the thinking section just as in your example we show and hide the search results.

SteVen Batten (@sbatten) got it, then yes: your picture would work as well for search results:

• we use the ✅ instead of twistie
• when you click it expands

One feedback from Daniel Imms (@Tyriar) was how then you know that you can click to expand, but I would argue we can figure this out later, for example by showing the twistie on hover at the end of the line.

Did we already look at moving the twistie to the right side of the widget?
