Thread Collapsed is the conversation view for the Q2 roadmap review thread, showing four messages where Avery Stone, Marcus Kim, and Jordan Lee are compressed to single-line rows: avatar, name, truncated snippet, and timestamp side by side. The latest message from Priya Nair is fully expanded with her address, four body paragraphs describing the updated deck, a slide 12 headcount fix, and a retained June footnote, plus an Acme_Q2_Roadmap_v4.pdf attachment chip at 2.1 MB. A Reply to all prompt anchors the bottom of the card.
Messages are a discriminated union of CollapsedMessage and ExpandedMessage types, so the renderer can access body and attachmentName on the expanded branch without an optional-field guard on every property. The chevron icon on collapsed rows signals expandability without needing a label.
