Streamlined status indicators that replace verbose reasoning steps for those who prefer a cleaner, more focused chat environment

Refined Reasoning Steps Display

Issue: Raw reasoning steps expose system internals that overwhelm users with technical details and create poor UX

Solution: Replace verbose reasoning with streamlined status indicators:
• Show simple, real-time status messages ("Analyzing...", "Searching...", "Processing...")
• Hide technical details by default
• Include subtle "View Details" option for users who want transparency
• Keep the main conversation flow clean and uncluttered

Impact: Professional interface that mirrors modern AI assistants, prioritizing clean conversation flow while maintaining optional transparency

    I've set the status to "Block to Deploy," though I'm not entirely sure if this is the most appropriate designation given that we're planning to go live in approximately a month. Currently, we're using CSS overrides to hide the steps as a temporary workaround, but this isn't an ideal solution since we have no way to track upcoming releases that could potentially impact these overrides. This creates a risk for when the agent goes live, as any platform updates could break our CSS implementation without warning. I'd appreciate guidance on whether we should use a different status for this issue.

Remove reasoning from Embed Chat

Merged
When deploying an agent as embed chat, it appears reasoning. This on an interface publicly available doesn't looks goods
