   Describe the bug

   Desktop chat logs become unrecoverable after archiving. After moving the entire project folder to a new location, OpenCode still references the old absolute path and cannot update the session/log location. Reopening the project does not refresh the address automatically.

   Steps to reproduce

   1. Create a project at /old/path/project
   2. Use OpenCode desktop, have some chat sessions
   3. Archive or move the project folder to /new/path/project
   4. Reopen the project in OpenCode
   5. Try to access previous chat logs / sessions

   Expected behavior

   OpenCode should either:

   • Detect that the project folder has moved, and update session/log paths accordingly, or
   • Provide a manual "relink sessions" dialog (as requested in [FEATURE]: Add session migration dialog to recover orphaned or misplaced sessions #23249), or
   • Store paths relative to the project root or use an ID-based mapping ([FEATURE]: Auto-relink stale sessions when project_id matches but directory is outdated #27822)

   Actual behavior

   Sessions are orphaned, logs cannot be recovered. The old absolute path is still used and cannot be changed.
