Allow Elle conversations to persist when working with reports

What is the challenge?

• When using Elle alongside an Aha! report, I often need to move repeatedly between the Elle conversation and the report itself. Closing the Elle side panel gives me the space to work on the report, but reopening Elle from the top navigation does not return me directly to the conversation I was having. I have to reopen Elle and select the conversation again from the history each time.

What is the impact?

• This makes using Elle iteratively while building or refining reports cumbersome. A workflow that should feel like an ongoing conversation becomes a repeated process of closing, reopening, and finding the previous chat, creating unnecessary friction when making multiple report changes based on Elle's guidance.

Describe your idea.

• Allow the Elle side panel to be collapsed and expanded without ending or leaving the current conversation. I should be able to collapse Elle, make changes to the report, and expand the panel again exactly where I left off.

• Ideally, there should also be a simple way to refresh the report context available to Elle after making changes, so I can continue the same conversation with Elle based on the updated version of the report.
