Task 18: Chat UI Textarea Overlay and Border Styling Fix
id: 18 title: Chat UI Textarea Overlay and Border Styling Fix status: Not started summary: Fix overlay of waiting messages and streamline borders between chat window and input area to improve visibility and reclaim terminal space. goal: | Adjust the TUI chat interface so that waiting/status messages no longer overlay the first line of the input textarea (ensuring user drafts remain visible), and merge/remove borders as follows: - Merge the bottom border of the chat history window with the top border of the input textarea. - Remove the left, right, and bottom overall borders around the chat interface to reduce wasted space.
This task is specific to codex-rs.
Acceptance Criteria
- Waiting/status messages (e.g. "Thinking...", "Typing...", etc.) appear above the textarea rather than overlaying the first line of the input area.
- User draft text remains visible at all times, even when agent messages or status indicators are rendered.
- The bottom border of the chat history pane and the top border of the textarea are unified into a single border line.
- The left, right, and bottom borders around the entire chat UI are removed, reclaiming columns/rows in the terminal.
- Manual or automated visual verification steps demonstrate correct layout in a variety of terminal widths.

Notes
- This involves updating the rendering logic in the TUI modules (likely under
tui/src/incodex-rs). - Ensure layout changes do not break existing tests or rendering in unusual terminal sizes.
- Consider writing a simple snapshot test or manual demo script to validate border and overlay behavior.
