Two new pages under a new Interface group, with fifteen screen recordings and
a set of corrections to what the docs already said about both surfaces.

What is here

  1. Interface group ahead of Features, holding sidebar and composer. Both
    pages moved out of Features and every cross-link updated, including the one
    on the Chat page.
  2. Sidebar: projects, labels, pins, drag and drop, search that reads inside
    messages, hover preview, multi-select, status marks, keyboard, width, and
    getting back to a project from the breadcrumb.
  3. Composer: attachments and the three ways in, granting screen recording,
    the @ menu and its scopes, saved prompts, prompt history, previews,
    reasoning modes, permissions, dictation, shortcuts.

Corrections to existing pages

The Chat page named the reasoning modes High / Fast; they are Quick / Deep
/ Max
, and new chats start in Deep. It also described the access control as the
encryption shield — those are two different controls, and the shield is
encryption. Both fixed.

Several claims were rewritten after the recordings showed otherwise: a project's
icon and colour are chosen after it exists rather than while creating it, labels
apply to projects as well as chats, unpinning has three routes rather than only
dragging out, search results stay grouped by project, and a selection can span
several projects. One claim was removed outright — a chat cannot be dragged
between projects, the backend refuses it, and the page now says why.

Video rather than GIF

The first clip came to 12 MB as a GIF at every setting worth trying, and 373 KB
as an MP4 at a higher frame rate and full width. GIF cannot compress motion. The
slots are <video autoPlay loop muted playsInline>, which behaves like a GIF and
weighs a fraction of one. Total for both pages is 18 MB across fifteen clips.

The screen-recording walkthrough is the one exception: it sits behind an
<Accordion> and uses controls rather than autoplay, because a video inside a
collapsed <details> does not start on its own and would open on a frozen frame.

Checks

npm run build passes; cspell "**/*.mdx" is clean with two words added to the
dictionary (Recents, timecode).

Two pages, fifteen screen recordings, and a handful of corrections to what the
docs already said about both.

1. New **Interface** group ahead of Features, holding `sidebar` and `composer`;
   both moved out of Features and every cross-link updated
2. Sidebar: projects, labels, pins, drag and drop, search, hover preview,
   multi-select, status marks, keyboard, width, and getting back to a project
3. Composer: attachments, granting screen recording, the `@` menu, saved
   prompts, prompt history, previews, reasoning modes, permissions, dictation
4. Chat page corrected: modes are Quick / Deep / Max, not High / Fast, and the
   access control is not the encryption shield
5. Fifteen MP4 clips in `<video>` rather than GIF — the first clip weighed 12 MB
   as a GIF and 373 KB as an MP4 at a higher frame rate
