The chat webview keeps its scroll position when a tab is revealed programmatically, so companion/accessibility tooling that focuses a Claude Code chat tab (via workbench tab APIs) lands the user mid-transcript on busy sessions. Ctrl+End only works when the message list owns keyboard focus, which it never does right after a tab reveal, and no contributed command exists for this (checked 2.1.220). Request: a contributed command to scroll the active conversation to the latest message (and/or a setting "always reveal chats at the bottom"). Use case: multi-session dashboards / screen-reader-adjacent accessibility flows checking on long-running sessions.
