Code Review
This pull request introduces accessibility enhancements by adding aria-label attributes to buttons in ChatPanel.tsx and NodeEditorDetail.tsx, alongside several shell scripts used to automate these edits. The review feedback points out that adding aria-label to buttons with visible text (such as "Cancel", "Save", "Focus Canvas", and the charts toggle) is redundant and overrides the visible text, violating WCAG 2.5.3 (Label in Name) and hiding state information from screen readers. Additionally, the reviewer notes a mismatch between the dynamic aria-label and the static title attribute for the copy message buttons, and recommends removing the temporary shell scripts from the repository.

The button already has clear, visible text: 📊 Charts: {chartsEnabled ? "ON" : "OFF"}. Adding aria-label="Toggle interactive charts" completely overrides the button's text content for screen readers. As a result, screen reader users will only hear "Toggle interactive charts" and will not be able to hear whether the charts are currently "ON" or "OFF". It is best to remove the aria-label attribute entirely since the visible text is already fully accessible and descriptive.

The button has visible text "Focus Canvas". Adding aria-label="Expand editor" overrides this text, violating WCAG 2.1 Success Criterion 2.5.3 (Label in Name), which requires that the accessible name of a control contains its visible text. This mismatch breaks voice control activation (e.g., users saying "Click Focus Canvas" will fail because the accessible name is "Expand editor"). Since the visible text is already fully accessible, the aria-label should be removed.

When the message is copied (isCopied is true), the aria-label updates to "Copied message", but the title attribute remains static as "Copy message". This creates a mismatch between the visual tooltip (which still says "Copy message" on hover) and the screen reader announcement. The title attribute should be made dynamic to match the copied state, similar to how it is done in markdownUtils.tsx.
| title="Copy message" | |
| aria-label={isCopied ? "Copied message" : "Copy message"} | |

These temporary shell scripts (patch_chatpanel.sh, patch_chatpanel2.sh, patch_chatpanel3.sh, patch_nodeeditor.sh) appear to be automation artifacts used to apply changes to the codebase. They should not be committed to the repository as they pollute the project. Please remove them before merging.
