Feature Request: Add "Files" section to sidebar with Expand All / Contract All folder controls #3
Description
Feature Request
Add a "Files" section in the sidebar (separate from Bot Config Files) with two icons to:
- Expand All folders
- Contract All folders
Why this matters
The current file tree is always expanded by default. When browsing a large workspace with many folders, this makes it hard to find specific files because everything is visible.
Having collapsible sections with Expand/Contract controls would make navigation much more efficient, especially for:
- Large memory collections with hundreds of daily notes
- Projects with deep folder structures
- Skill directories with many subdirectories
Proposed Solution
Add a new section header in the sidebar:
Files
[📁 Expand All] [📂 Contract All]
Where:
- Files is the section title
- 📁 Expand All icon/button expands all folder nodes
- 📂 Contract All icon/button collapses all folder nodes
Implementation details
This should work alongside the existing "Bot Config Files" section, which already has good collapse functionality for bot files.
State persistence
The expand/collapse state should persist in localStorage so the user's preference is remembered between sessions.
Keyboard shortcuts (optional but nice to have)
- Ctrl+Shift+E: Expand all
- Ctrl+Shift+C: Contract all
This would match the current UX pattern in the application (see SearchPanel's Escape key handling, FileTree's collapsible bot files section).
