What issue are you seeing?

When the sidebar is collapsed, hovering near the edge reveals the sidebar in the normal Codex app view. This is good and expected.

However, after opening Settings while the sidebar is collapsed, the sidebar stays hidden and the hover reveal no longer works. There is no obvious way to reveal the sidebar from Settings via hover.

Steps to reproduce

1. Open Codex Desktop.
2. Collapse or close the sidebar.
3. Hover near the sidebar edge and confirm the sidebar appears.
4. Open Settings.
5. With Settings open, hover near the same sidebar edge.

Expected behavior

The collapsed sidebar hover reveal should continue to work while Settings is open, or Settings should expose an equivalent way to reveal/open the sidebar.

Actual behavior

The sidebar remains hidden while Settings is open, and hovering near the edge does not reveal it.
