Chat Two Pane
blockcommunicationTwo-pane messaging surface. Left rail: searchable conversation list with avatars, online dots, pinned section, unread badges, mute icons, last-message preview, smart timestamps. Right pane: active thread with day separators, own/peer bubbles, read ticks, typing indicator, attach/emoji/send composer. Stateful demo — replace `conversations` and `messagesByConvo` with your data layer.
