Allow customization of the Chat page and hiding of secondary elements

Context and problem

The Chat page contains what our users actually need: the message input box and the LLM selector. However, it also displays many additional elements (recently used agents, featured agents, other suggestion blocks) that clutter the interface.

In practice, these elements confuse our users more than they help. Many don’t know where to focus, hesitate on what to do next, and contact support for tasks that should be straightforward. For users who are not familiar with AI tools, a cleaner page would significantly improve adoption.

Need

Be able to reduce the Chat page to the essentials: the message input box and the model selector.

Proposed solutions (from simplest to most complete):

  1. Minimal mode: a toggle or setting that hides everything except the message input box and the LLM selector.

  2. Per-element visibility: in user settings, a list of checkboxes to show or hide each block (recent agents, featured agents, suggestions, etc.).

  3. Admin-level configuration: the ability for administrators to define the default layout of the Chat page for the whole organization, and optionally lock certain settings. This is the most valuable option for us, as it ensures a consistent experience without requiring each user to configure it.

  4. Collapsible sections: as a fallback, the ability to collapse secondary sections, with their state remembered across sessions.

Expected benefits

  • Faster onboarding for new users.

  • Fewer support requests.

  • Better adoption of the tool across the organization.

  • Advanced users keep access to all features if they want them.
