There was a problem hiding this comment.
Pull request overview
Fixes the Sessions (Agents) workbench behavior where opening a modal editor (e.g. Settings) incorrectly hides an already-visible main editor part, and updates the Sessions layout spec accordingly.
Changes:
- Adjusts
onWillOpenEditorhandling so only opens targeting a main editor group can affect main editor-part visibility; modal opens no longer hide it. - Updates
LAYOUT.mdto reflect that the editor part is hidden by default but can be revealed by explicit main-part editor workflows.
