💡 What: Added auto-scrolling to the
ChatTimelinecomponent by watching the entries array length and loading state (isSending) with{ flush: 'post' }. Additionally, addedrole="log",aria-live="polite", and:aria-busy="isSending"to the container.🎯 Why: As the chat interface populates with new messages (or system updates during "Check Gateway"), users previously had to manually scroll down to read the latest updates. Auto-scrolling improves standard chat log usability.
📸 Before/After: Verified via frontend screenshot. The timeline automatically scrolls to the bottom when new items are pushed into the array.
♿ Accessibility: The timeline acts as a dynamic log. Adding
role="log"andaria-live="polite"ensures that screen readers dynamically announce new messages and states as they appear in the DOM.PR created automatically by Jules for task 17182893615207209585 started by @MEKXH
