Feature request
In the Claude Code desktop app, the terminal/preview panel is fixed to the right-hand side. Terminal muscle memory (and every comparable agent IDE — Codex app, Qoder, VS Code) puts the terminal in a dockable bottom panel.
Problem
- Right-side placement forces collapsing the left sidebar to get usable width, which is a pain.
- No setting exists to reposition the panel.
Request
Allow docking the panel to the bottom (or choosing its position), like standard IDE terminal panels.
