Problem

When using the TUI interface, I noticed that the Message Actions dialog defaults to the "Revert" option. This is a potential UX issue because Revert is a destructive operation that undoes messages and file changes. If I accidentally hit Enter without thinking, it could cause unintended data loss or changes that I didn't mean to apply.

Why This Matters

Safe operations like "Copy" should be the first option since they're non-destructive. Most users expect to be able to safely interact with a dialog without accidentally triggering dangerous actions.

What Should Happen

The message actions should be reordered to put the safe "Copy" operation first, so it becomes the default selection. This way:

  • Users can safely press Enter on the first option
  • Destructive operations like "Revert" come at the end as expected

Affected Code

The options are defined in packages/tui/src/routes/session/dialog-message.tsx

  • I have verified this is a feature request and not a bug report
  • I have checked existing issues to avoid duplicates
