We got this feedback on the current design of the compose box, in dark mode:

I'm using the latest version and I notice that the box design is not highlighted compared to the text you read and it's difficult to understand where you have to start typing the text, you need a higher contrast or change the design […]

Indeed the compose box has a similar background to the message list, and the boundary is a bit hard to see.

Implementation

We'll use this updated design from @terpimost:

if we change "border-bar" in dark mode from 50% black to 10% white I think we have a better contrast of the panel: […]
Also in dark mode we could turn on a shadow […]

Details are in Figma. See also screenshots in the chat thread.

Updated the top border and added shadow effect to the top of
the compose box to ensure it is subtle in dark mode.

For reference, see the Figma design:
