fix(web): keep citation comment when popover is dismissed#10831flamboh wants to merge 4 commits into
Conversation
Typing a comment in the citation popover and clicking elsewhere unmounted the editor and dropped the text, while the chip stayed in the prompt. Dismissal now commits the draft; Escape and Cancel still discard, and an over-length draft keeps the popover open so the error stays visible. Written by Claude Fable 5.1 via Claude Code.

ApprovabilityVerdict: Approved at Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — This is a focused web bug fix that preserves edited citation comments on ordinary popover dismissal, with explicit discard and length-limit handling covered by tests. Its runtime impact is confined to the existing citation editor and save path, without schema, infrastructure, security, billing, or default changes. You can add or adjust custom eligibility rules.

- Around line 72-73: Update the cited-source-unavailable flow in
AssistantCitationChip so commentEditor.onOpenChange(false) runs only when
settleDraftOnClose("none") indicates the popover may close. Preserve the
keep-open behavior and validation error when settlement returns false.
- Around line 67-68: Update the dismissal handling around
AssistantCitationChip’s onSave call so a rejected save returns the keep-open
outcome instead of allowing the popover to close; preserve the existing behavior
for non-commit dismissals and successful saves, matching the direct submit
path’s boolean handling.
In `@apps/web/src/components/chat/assistantCitationCommentDismissal.ts`:
- Line 24: Update the unchanged-value check in the dismissal logic to compare
the trimmed draft with a normalized savedComment as well. Preserve the close
result and avoid invoking onSave when the stored comment differs only by
surrounding whitespace.

Note
🤖 Claude Fable 5.1 on behalf of Oliver
ELI5
You cite some assistant text, start typing a comment, click somewhere else, and the comment is gone. Now clicking away saves what you typed.
Problem
The citation comment lives only in the popover's local state and is written to the chip on Save or Cmd+Enter. Clicking outside goes through Base UI's outside-press close, which unmounts the editor without saving. The chip stays in the prompt with no comment, so it looks attached while the words are lost. Escape and Cancel go through the explicit cancel path, so they behave as expected.
