The chat delete endpoints gate on chat.delete for non-admins, but none of
the UI affordances that reach them were conditioned on it, so a user
without the permission is offered controls that always fail with
"Access prohibited".
Gates every entry point on the same condition the backend enforces,
matching the existing chat.share / chat.export / chat.import gates in the
same components:
- Sidebar chat menu (ChatMenu) Delete item — also covers the Search
modal's menu, which reuses ChatMenu
- Sidebar Shift+hover inline Delete button (ChatItem)
- Sidebar hidden #delete-chat-button keyboard-shortcut target (ChatItem)
- Chat navbar menu Delete item (Navbar/Menu)
- Search modal Shift-held inline Delete button (SearchModal)
- Settings -> Data Controls -> Delete All Chats
- Settings -> Archived Chats per-row Delete

On latest `dev`, the chat that is currently open is indicated **only** by a background tint: `bg-black/[0.035]` in light mode and `dark:bg-white/[0.045]` in dark.
Against the page background that is **1.07:1** in light and **1.05:1** in dark. It is close to imperceptible for sighted users, and it carries no programmatic state at all, so assistive technology has no way to tell which entry in the list is the one being viewed.
Breaks WCAG 1.4.1 Use of Color (Level A), since the state is conveyed by colour alone, and 4.1.2 Name, Role, Value (Level A), since the state is not exposed.
Fix: set `aria-current="page"` on the chat link when it is the open chat, using the same `id === $chatId` condition that already drives the visual highlight, so the two cannot drift apart. `'page'` is the correct token because the trigger is a real navigation to `/c/{id}`.
This matches the existing pattern in `routes/(app)/workspace/+layout.svelte` and `chat/Placeholder/ChatList.svelte`, which already set `aria-current` for their active entries.
Verified that the bits-ui `LinkPreview.Trigger` forwards unknown attributes to the rendered anchor and does not set `aria-current` itself, so the attribute reaches the DOM.
This does not change the visual contrast of the highlight, which is worth addressing separately.
Severity: Serious. In a long chat list there is no reliable way to tell which chat is open.

On latest `dev`, the sidebar folder row is a bare `<div>` carrying `on:click` (navigate into the folder) and `on:dblclick` (rename). It has **no `role`, no `tabindex` and no key handler**, so opening a folder is impossible from the keyboard.
The nested chevron `<button>` is focusable, but it only expands the folder in place, it does not navigate to it, so there is no keyboard route to the folder page at all.
Breaks WCAG 2.1.1 Keyboard (Level A) and 4.1.2 Name, Role, Value (Level A). The Svelte compiler already flags this file with `a11y_click_events_have_key_events`; after this change the component compiles with zero a11y warnings.
Fix: apply the row pattern already used elsewhere in this codebase (`workspace/Prompts.svelte`, `workspace/Knowledge.svelte`, `admin/Functions.svelte`), namely `role="button"`, `tabindex="0"` and a keydown handler for Enter and Space, with the same `e.currentTarget !== e.target` guard and the same `shouldIgnoreRowClick` helper those files use.
That guard matters more here than in the files it was copied from: the rename `<input>` is rendered **inside** this row, so without it typing a space in the rename field would be swallowed and navigate away, and Enter would both save the rename and navigate.
The navigation body is extracted to `openFolderHandler` because it now has two callers. The keyboard path calls it directly rather than through the 100ms `clickTimer`, which exists only to disambiguate single from double click and has no keyboard equivalent.
A dead `(e) => e.stopPropagation();` expression statement in the click handler is removed. It allocated an arrow function and discarded it without ever calling it.
The `…` folder menu is still `invisible group-hover:visible` and therefore unreachable, so rename, share, delete, export and new subfolder remain keyboard-inaccessible until that is addressed. That is fixed repo wide in a separate PR that replaces the `invisible group-hover:visible` pattern, so it is deliberately not touched here to avoid conflicting on the same line.
Folder reparenting by drag still has no keyboard alternative, which is a separate WCAG 2.5.7 issue needing a "Move" menu action.
Severity: Critical. Folders cannot be opened without a pointing device.

Every other navigation entry in the user menu (Settings, Admin Panel,
Archived Chats, Workspace, Notes, Automations, Playground, Sign Out)
collapses the sidebar on mobile after navigating, but the Calendar entry
was missing this handling, leaving the sidebar open over the Calendar
page on mobile. Add the same mobile guard used by the sibling entries.
On latest `dev`, each sidebar section header in `Sidebar/Section.svelte` is a real `<button>` carrying `aria-expanded` and `aria-controls`, but it has **no activation handler**. The toggle comes only from `on:pointerup` on the wrapper inside `common/Collapsible.svelte`.
Keyboard activation dispatches a synthetic `click`, never `pointerup`, and that wrapper's own `on:click` handler calls `stopPropagation()`. So pressing Enter or Space on the header does nothing at all, while `aria-expanded` tells assistive technology this is a working disclosure control.
This affects every section in the sidebar: Models, Notes, Channels, Folders and Chats. Section state is persisted to `localStorage`, so a user whose section was collapsed on a previous visit has no keyboard way to open it again, and the content stays unreachable.
Breaks WCAG 2.1.1 Keyboard (Level A), and 4.1.2 Name, Role, Value (Level A), because the exposed expanded state belongs to a control that cannot be operated.
Fix: handle activation on the header button itself, where focus actually lands, and stop the now duplicate pointer path so a mouse click does not toggle twice. The existing inline `onChange` body is extracted to `setOpen` so the `change` dispatch and the `localStorage` write stay in one place and fire exactly once per toggle in both input modes. The adjacent "+" (`onAdd`) button already stops both `pointerup` and `click`, so it still does not toggle the section.
`Collapsible`'s wrapper cannot simply become a `<button>` instead, because its slot receives buttons from this component and others, so the fix belongs here.
`common/Folder.svelte` and `Sidebar/RecursiveFolder.svelte` have the same latent defect and are not touched by this PR.
Severity: Critical. Sidebar navigation cannot be expanded without a mouse.

When navigating from a chat to a non-chat route (e.g. the admin panel),
the previously-viewed chat stayed selected in the sidebar and
deleting/archiving it wrongly redirected back to the new-chat page.
Cloning a chat also left the source chat highlighted alongside the new
clone, so two chats appeared selected at once.
Two independent sources kept the stale selection:
- The chatId store was never cleared when the Chat component unmounted,
so $chatId still pointed at the last-viewed chat (this drove the
delete/archive redirect). Clear chatId/chatTitle in Chat's onDestroy.
- The sidebar's optimistic selectedChatId highlight, set on click, was
only cleared on window blur (hence it appeared to fix itself after a
tab switch) and never followed programmatic navigation. Bind it to the
chatId store so it tracks the active chat for leave, delete and clone.
