Under the hood

The diff panel's fullscreen-vs-inline display logic was simplified into a single shared check

What

The /diff slash command's description and its immediate-display behavior now both rely on a single helper function that checks whether the current presentation mode is "fullscreen", replacing three separate condition checks that existed before. A related, unused code branch for rendering the diff panel in fullscreen mode was also removed from an unrelated part of the code.

Why

This is an internal cleanup that makes the fullscreen-versus-inline decision for the diff panel consistent in one place; it isn't expected to change what you see when running /diff.
