Tabs without reload churn
The reader workspace keeps up to 15 open tabs with 12 recently used documents mounted in memory (hidden) so switching back does not reload PDF.js from scratch. Tab switches use soft URL updates — history.replaceState — so the App Router page does not remount.
Split view for comparison
Drop a page from the library sidebar onto a pane divider to open side-by-side — useful when cross-referencing a textbook PDF with your case notes. Each pane has its own scroll position and zoom.

Resizable panels
Library explorer and Study AI panels resize and collapse via react-resizable-panels. Layout and open tabs persist in localStorage under shelf:reader-workspace so your setup survives browser restarts.

Document fullscreen
Fullscreen mode keeps Study AI docked beside the document inside the fullscreen element — ask-from-selection still works, and you are not kicked out of focus mode to chat.
Tabs for parallel sources
Open multiple pages in one workspace — judgment in tab one, your summary doc in tab two, bare act in tab three. Switch tabs without losing scroll position per document.
Close tabs you finish; Shelf does not limit reasonable tab counts for desktop study sessions.

Split view
Drag or use split controls to show two documents side by side — compare versions, copy quotes into notes, or keep Study AI context visible beside PDF.
Split works with mixed types: PDF plus sketch notebook, or two PDFs from different collections.

Collapsible panels
Hide the library sidebar, Study AI panel, or outline to maximize reading width. Restore with keyboard shortcuts or header toggles.
Panel state persists per session so deep-focus layout returns when you reopen the same page.
URLs and deep links
Each page has a stable route under /my-content/... — bookmark split layouts indirectly by bookmarking the primary page and reopening tabs from recent history.
Planner links open single pages; add tabs manually for compare sessions.

Performance with many tabs
Inactive tabs pause heavy work where possible — only the visible PDF actively renders pages. Switching tabs is fast thanks to byte cache.
