SentToChannelHeader

Renders the sent-to-channel header in MessageList. This is the default component for the SentToChannelHeader prop.

Best Practices

  • Keep header copy clear for thread/channel context.
  • Use the default press handler for thread navigation where possible.
  • Avoid blocking UI during parent message fetches.
  • Keep "View" affordance consistent with app navigation patterns.
  • Override via Channel prop for centralized customization.

Handler invoked when the header is pressed.
