Defer phone search suggestions until user types

[BigSimmo]

Summary

On phone devices, the bottom-dock search composer no longer expands with suggestions when the input is merely focused or tapped. The smart dropdown now opens only after the user starts typing.

Merged latest cursor/remove-answer-bar-chips-8b1a and resolved conflicts.

Changes

• universal-search-command-surface.tsx: For bottom-dock placement, defer opening the command dropdown until the query has text. Preserves upstream AnswerSuggestionChips refactor for the examples hint row.
• tests/ui-tools.spec.ts: Assert listbox stays closed on focus/ArrowDown with empty query, then opens after typing.

Conflict resolution

Both conflicts were simple (no conflicting product intent):

1. React imports — kept useRef for typed-query gating; dropped unused useSyncExternalStore from upstream chip refactor.
2. Playwright helper — combined upstream Examples-chip work with typed-query assertions; dropped empty-query ArrowDown/Examples expectations that conflict with the new phone behavior.

Cursor Bugbot has reviewed your changes using high effort and found 2 potential issues.

Bugbot Autofix prepared fixes for both issues found in the latest run.

• ✅ Fixed: Vector fallback drops global scope
  • The vector fallback RPC now always forwards args.allowGlobalSearch (with per-filter documentIds) instead of passing undefined when a documentFilter is present.
• ✅ Fixed: Deferral applies beyond phone
  • Suggestion deferral is now gated by an explicit requiresTypedQueryToOpen prop set from usesPhoneFooterDock, so desktop answer footer keeps focus-open recents behavior.

Vector fallback drops global scope

Medium Severity

The match_document_chunks fallback path incorrectly passes undefined for allowGlobalSearch to ownerScopeForDocumentFilteredRetrieval when a documentFilter is present. This prevents anonymous searches with allowGlobalSearch: true from honoring the global search permission, causing them to fail or degrade via requireOwnerScope.

Deferral applies beyond phone

Low Severity

Typed-query deferral is keyed on placement === "bottom-dock", but master-search-header assigns bottom-dock to every answer-mode footer composer, not only phone footer layouts. Desktop answer search loses focus-only recents and keyboard-open behavior that inline placement still provides, which goes beyond the PR’s phone-only intent.
