fix(web): stashing waits for pasted images to finish compressing - #28308
If you paste a large screenshot and stash the prompt (Mod+S) while the image is still compressing, the stash saves the text without the image and clears the composer. When compression finishes, the image shows up alone in the emptied composer, and restoring the stash in another thread brings back only the text.
Change
stashCurrentPrompt now checks countPreparingComposerImages, the same check the send path uses ("Still compressing a pasted image."). While an image is still compressing it leaves the draft alone and shows "Still compressing a pasted image. Stash again once it finishes compressing." The check sits after the empty-composer branch, so Mod+S with only a compressing image still opens the stash menu or restores a stashed prompt, as before.
Scope
A bug fix: stashing splits a prompt from its image. No issue: a very small fix for an obvious bug, one guard copied from the send path. It changes nothing in stash storage, restore, the server or the contracts.
Verification
To see it on Linux web: (1) type a prompt and paste a large image, (2) press Mod+S while it still compresses, (3) main saves a text-only stash and the image appears alone in the emptied composer.
I did exactly that on web and on the Linux desktop dev build, main 15fe283272 against 645aba48bf (useComposerStash.ts is byte-identical to the present head 92c80457e2), with a large synthetic PNG. The new useComposerStash.browser.test.tsx case fails on main (an entry is written and the prompt is cleared) and passes with the fix.
Re-checked against main at f419698aea on 2026-11-12: the test fails on that main without the change and passes with it, the branch merges cleanly, and on that main's web app (paste and Ctrl+S sent from the page in one step) the stash entry is still text-only and the image still lands alone in the emptied composer.
Web, main 15fe283: text-only stash entry, image left in the composer
Desktop on macOS and Windows. The same composer shortcut handler runs there; only Linux was captured.
Mobile: not applicable, the mobile composer has no prompt stash.
Method, tests, desktop captures and recordings
Sending already waits for this case. Stashing only waited for attached context to finish importing, not for images that were still compressing. That empty-composer path saves nothing, and the image joins the restored draft once it is ready.
New useComposerStash.browser.test.tsx: "keeps the draft when stashing while a pasted image is still compressing". On main it fails: an entry is written and the prompt is cleared. With the fix it passes, and it also checks that the compressing image stays in the preparing store after the refused stash. ComposerStashMenu.browser.test.tsx still passes.
vp run check:changed: format, lint, knip, typecheck, tests and React compiler all pass.
Web (browser) and desktop (Linux Electron dev build), each before and after, using a large synthetic PNG so compression takes long enough to press Mod+S. Before is main 15fe283272. The toast captures and the web after recording are from 645aba48bf. useComposerStash.ts is byte-identical from 645aba48bf to the present head 92c80457e2, which only adds a test assertion. Web input was clicks and keys in the Browser panel; desktop input was sent with Cua Driver and wtype on a Wayland session. Web:
Web, main 15fe283: prompt with a compressing image (0%)
None for this fix. #18393 routes a late paste back to its original draft, which this builds on. #24468 (open) changes the stash store and its test for cross-tab synchronization, a separate problem.

Stashing while a pasted or dropped image was still compressing saved the text without the image and cleared the draft. When compression finished, the image landed in the emptied composer, so a restore elsewhere brought back the prompt without its image.
stashCurrentPrompt now checks the preparing-image count, the same check the send path uses, and shows an info toast asking to stash again once the thumbnail appears. An empty draft keeps its existing menu toggle and single-entry restore.

Walkthrough
useComposerStash now stops before stashing when a composer image is still preparing. A browser test checks that the stash remains empty, the prompt stays unchanged, and one image remains preparing.

Summary
Guard prompt stashing during image preparation apps/web/src/components/chat/useComposerStash.ts, apps/web/src/components/chat/useComposerStash.browser.test.tsx
Before stashing, the hook checks for images that are still preparing for the current attachment target. If any exist, it shows an informational toast and returns. The browser test checks that the stash stays empty, the prompt remains unchanged, and one image remains preparing.
Stashing a draft while a pasted image is still compressing now keeps the draft and image in place and shows a retry message. No remaining merge-blocking risk is apparent. Native desktop and mobile were not exercised.

Assert that the preparing image remains registered.
The test checks only the prompt and stash. Since readAttachmentDraft returns no images, it would still pass if the blocked stash handler removed the preparing image. Assert that the pasted image remains registered after the shortcut.

The compressing placeholder already shows a thumbnail, so the stash toast now asks to stash again once the image finishes compressing.

Assert that the pending image stays in the preparing store after the stash is refused.
The test seeds a pending pasted image, then checks only the prompt-stash entries and the prompt text. Both checks still pass if the refusal path also drops that image from the preparing store, so a regression that silently loses the pending image would not fail this test. Add a check on countPreparingComposerImages(target) after the existing assertions. Import countPreparingComposerImages from ./preparingComposerImages alongside the helpers the test already uses.
Suggested fix
expect(usePromptStashStore.getState().entries).toEqual([]);
expect(promptRef.current).toBe("Describe this screenshot");
+ expect(countPreparingComposerImages(target)).toBe(1);

Verified exact head 92c80457e2c8006431b5f00bb002df13ba4118e6 on a disposable Linux VM, using the real web app, repository Playwright, and /usr/bin/google-chrome. No application mocks or seeded fixtures. Created a project pointing at a real git repository through the UI.
Reproduced on github/main (8b74a69019) in a separate worktree: paste a large screenshot, then Ctrl+S during compression. The text moved to a text-only stash and the image finished alone in the cleared composer.
Repeated with the same screenshot and prompt on this PR: Ctrl+S kept the draft and preparing image, created no stash, and showed "Still compressing a pasted image. Stash again once it finishes compressing." Chrome CPU throttling made the race reachable; compression and clipboard paste remained real.
After compression, Ctrl+S stashed text and image together. Restored them and submitted through the web client to real Codex gpt-6.1-sol; it correctly identified T3 Code and the project visible in the image. Also stashed from an existing thread, restored into a new thread, and got the same correct image identification from a second real provider turn.
Nearby behavior: text-only stash/restore passed; the empty-composer shortcut restored a single entry; an image-only draft still opened the stash menu during compression and retained its image when preparation finished.
Automated checks: both existing focused browser files passed through Blacksmith (2 tests). vp run check:changed 15fe2832727893cbdd2214383f9f971474849695 passed through Blacksmith. The explicit base restores the comparison in the runner's shallow snapshot. GitHub reports 29 successful checks on this exact head.

Re this review: added in 92c8045, which covers this review and the earlier one (#28308 (review)). After the refused stash, useComposerStash.browser.test.tsx:83 asserts countPreparingComposerImages(target) is still 1, so a refusal that dropped the pending image would fail the test.
This PR changes the test suite by +1 test cases (browser +1, unit 0, server 0).
New browser test files: apps/web/src/components/chat/useComposerStash.browser.test.tsx.
Each browser test file costs CI seconds of module loading before its first test runs; a unit test costs milliseconds.
Keep tests that would fail for a real reason, and test logic below the UI where it can be. See Testing.
Type 'Describe this screenshot' in a new-thread composer, paste a large synthetic PNG, and press Ctrl+S while Preparing is visible. Chromium 156, Linux, 1280×800, light theme; fresh isolated state on each commit.
Proven by scenarios:prove (exit 0): base clears the prompt and leaves the image behind; head preserves the draft, shows a retry message, and creates no stash. Retrying after compression stashes both; restoring returns both.
