What platform is your computer?

macOS Golden Gate Version 27.0 Beta (26A5378j), Apple M4 Max, 48 GB

What issue are you seeing?

When viewing conversations inside a folder, the conversation list behaves unexpectedly. Clicking on a conversation causes other conversations in the same folder to disappear, reappear, or reorder, even though I did not interact with them. The contents of the folder appear to change dynamically simply by selecting different chats. Expanding and collapsing the folder temporarily restores the expected list, but the issue returns when another conversation is selected. Based on the behavior, it appears the sidebar is refreshing or re-querying the folder contents incorrectly rather than maintaining a stable list of conversations.

This behavior is reproducible and can be seen in the attached screen recording. It makes it difficult to locate and navigate conversations because the list changes unexpectedly with each click.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

What is the expected behavior?

The chats in the folder should not disappear, reappear, or reorder

Thanks, but it is not a dupe.  This doesn't happen between restarts.  It happens during an active session of selecting chats within a project.
