Switching projects force opens Taskade AI
in progress

Each time I switch to a different project on web, the taskade AI sidebar auto opens. It use to be only on first start of the webpage [acceptable], but now after I close it and then go to a different project, it just reopens and annoys me

This is genuinely annoying — closing the AI sidebar only to have it pop back open every time you navigate to a different project completely undermines your control over your own workspace layout. Your preference to keep it closed should stick.
Good news: this is actively being worked on. In v6.70.0 we fixed a related issue (sidebar toggle from preview not working correctly), and v6.105.0 shipped smoother sidebar navigation specifically to address flickering and state inconsistency between project switches. If you've updated recently and it's still happening, please let us know what browser/platform you're on — there may be a specific case we haven't caught yet.
The goal is simple: if you close the AI sidebar, it should stay closed until you deliberately open it again. That's the expected behavior and we're committed to making it stick. Thanks for the detailed description of when it started regressing — that kind of context helps us pinpoint exactly what changed.

I find that exhausting too. It wouldn't be a problem to leave it up to the user in the settings whether they want that. You don't want to constantly build an app, but rather manage projects!!!
