The new-thread screen always asked "What should we build in ?", and the effort picker looked out of place: a fat pill slider, a gauge icon that said nothing, and a chip that reserved room for its longest level name. New threads now open on one of several lines from a shared list, picked per draft so it stays put across rerenders and reloads on web, desktop and iOS. On web a new Effort control setting chooses between named segments (default) and a slim slider, and the chip sizes to its level, drops its chevron and shows bars lit up to the level, with the popover opening downward on a new thread so it clears the headline. iOS gets the same bars and level color on the chip and the Reasoning slider, tighter Low and Max labels and a compact sheet, and the Duo's sidebar drags to resize again while its bar button still toggles it.

Done by Claude Fable 5.2 via 456code.

The new-thread screen always asked "What should we build in <project>?". Web, desktop and iOS now pick from one shared list of project and no-project lines, hashed off the draft id so a draft keeps its line across rerenders and reloads.

The effort popover's fat pill slider looked out of place, the chip reserved room for its longest level name, and its gauge icon said nothing. A new Effort control setting picks between named segments (default) and a slim slider tinted like the chip. The chip now sizes to its level, drops its chevron, shows bars lit up to the level, and its popover hangs from the chip's stable edge and opens downward on a new thread so it clears the headline.

On iOS the effort chip was a teal brain with a gray word and its sheet a teal slider. The chip and the Reasoning slider now show the same level bars and ocean level color as web, the slider's Low and Max labels sit right under the track, and the settings sheet starts compact when it opens onto a single option.

The Duo's sidebar was pinned to one width, so it could only show or hide. It gets its drag range back (280pt up to 380pt or the list pane's width) while the bar's sidebar button still toggles it.
