The chat title menu used a horizontal ellipsis (meatball) and a different set of items than the sidebar chat-row menu. Designers asked to normalize both menus on the sidebar shape since the sidebar is the more recent design. The chat top bar now uses the same `EllipsisVerticalIcon` (kebab) as the sidebar row and exposes the same items in the same order: Pin/Unpin agent, Rename chat, Archive agent, and Archive & delete workspace. Labels are sentence case throughout. The standalone "Generate new title" item is removed because the rename dialog's Generate button covers the same workflow, which is what the sidebar already exposes. The kebab now sits inline with the title rather than off to the right, so it reads as a title menu instead of a global action. Both menus render from a single `ChatActionsMenuItems` component so they cannot drift in the future. The shared component is polymorphic over `Item` and `Separator`, which lets the sidebar drive both its kebab (`DropdownMenu`) and its right-click context menu (`ContextMenu`) from the same JSX. <details> <summary>Implementation notes</summary> - `ChatActionsMenuItems.tsx`: new shared component. Renders the Pin/Unpin, Rename, Archive, Archive & delete workspace, and Unarchive items off a flat set of flags (`isArchived`, `isPinned`, `isChildChat`, `hasWorkspace`, `isArchiving`) and zero-arg handlers, plus polymorphic `Item`/`Separator` components. - `ChatTopBar.tsx`: replace the inline `EllipsisIcon` + duplicated dropdown body with the kebab trigger and a `<ChatActionsMenuItems>` call. Move the dropdown trigger into the title area so it sits next to the title text; switch `DropdownMenuContent` to `align="start"` so the menu opens flush with the trigger's left edge. Replace the old `onRegenerateTitle`/`isRegenerateTitleDisabled` props with `onPinAgent`, `onUnpinAgent`, `onOpenRenameDialog`, `isPinned`, and `isChildChat`. - `ChatTreeNode.tsx`: delete the inline `renderMenuItems` helper and call `<ChatActionsMenuItems>` from both the `DropdownMenuContent` and the `ContextMenuContent`. Pin handlers are pre-bound to `chat.id`; `onOpenRenameDialog` is pre-bound to the chat object. - `AgentsPageView.tsx`: lift the rename-chat dialog state up here and expose it through `AgentsOutletContext.onOpenRenameDialog`, so the sidebar row menu and the chat top bar open the same dialog instance. - `ChatsSidebar.tsx`: accept optional controlled `chatPendingRename`/`onChatPendingRenameChange` props with internal-state fallback (controlled-or-uncontrolled pattern). Existing stories and tests are untouched. - `AgentChatPage.tsx`: consume `requestPinAgent`, `requestUnpinAgent`, and `onOpenRenameDialog` from the outlet context, and pass new `handlePinAgentAction`, `handleUnpinAgentAction`, `handleOpenRenameDialog`, `isPinned`, and `isChildChat` props through `AgentChatPageView` to the top bar. - Stories: `ChatTopBar.stories.tsx` replaces the `GenerateTitle` story with `RenameChatItem`, `PinAgentItem`, `UnpinAgentItem`, and `ChildChatHidesPinAction`. Updated label expectations to sentence case across stories. `AgentChatPage.stories.tsx` updated for the new "Archive agent" label. </details> <details> <summary>Decision log</summary> - **Source of truth.** Per the designer, the sidebar menu is the canonical list; the chat title menu is what should change. - **One menu body.** A shared `ChatActionsMenuItems` component drives both menus so they cannot drift. Reviewers only need to read the menu items once. - **Icon parity.** Both menus now use `EllipsisVerticalIcon` (kebab). The old meatball was the only `EllipsisIcon` use in this surface. - **Kebab position.** Moved next to the title so the kebab reads as a per-chat action against the title, not a global top-bar action. Share and Toggle-panel stay on the right of the bar. - **"Generate new title" removed, not preserved as extra.** Keeping it would have re-introduced the inconsistency the designer is asking to remove. The rename dialog's Generate button already runs the propose flow and lets the user accept or edit the suggestion. The auto-regenerate code path (`requestRegenerateTitle`, `regeneratingTitleChatIds`, the title spinner) is left in place because removing it expands the diff and the regenerate plumbing may be re-used; only the menu trigger is gone. - **Single dialog instance.** Two separate `RenameChatDialog` instances would have worked, but lifting the state to `AgentsPageView` keeps a single source of truth and lets the top bar open the dialog the user already knows. `ChatsSidebar` keeps internal-state fallback so existing stories and tests do not need to thread state. - **`isChildChat`.** Pin/Unpin is hidden for child chats to match `ChatTreeNode`, which only renders the Pin item when `!isChildNode`. </details> <sub>Opened by Coder Agents on behalf of @tracyjohnsonux.</sub>
Coder is a self-hosted platform for cloud development environments and AI coding agents. Workspaces are defined with Terraform, connected through a secure Wireguard® tunnel, and automatically shut down when not used. Coder Agents runs a native AI coding agent whose loop executes in the control plane on your infrastructure, with no API keys in workspaces.
- Define cloud development environments in Terraform
- EC2 VMs, Kubernetes Pods, Docker Containers, etc.
- Automatically shutdown idle resources to save on costs
- Onboard developers in seconds instead of days
- Delegate coding work to AI agents on your infrastructure
- Bring any model (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Bedrock, self-hosted)
- No LLM credentials in workspaces, user identity on every action
- Centralized model governance, cost tracking, and audit logging
Quickstart
The most convenient way to try Coder is to install it on your local machine and experiment with provisioning cloud development environments using Docker (works on Linux, macOS, and Windows).
# First, install Coder
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh
# Start the Coder server (caches data in ~/.cache/coder)
coder server
# Navigate to http://localhost:3000 to create your initial user,
# create a Docker template and provision a workspace
Install
The easiest way to install Coder is to use the
install script for Linux
and macOS. For Windows, use the latest ..._installer.exe file from GitHub
Releases.
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh
You can run the install script with --dry-run to see the commands that will be used to install without executing them. Run the install script with --help for additional flags.
See install for additional methods.
Once installed, you can start a production deployment with a single command:
# Automatically sets up an external access URL on *.try.coder.app
coder server
# Requires a PostgreSQL instance (version 13 or higher) and external access URL
coder server --postgres-url <url> --access-url <url>
Use coder --help to get a list of flags and environment variables. See the install guides for a complete tutorial.
