It’s the most negative-sounding positive word, isn’t it?
A very British trait.

Especially when someone gets “chuffed to bits”
Satisfied. Smug but not in a negative way.
Pleased
So you’re chuffed about it?
I have the same reaction to nonplussed
Up the chuff = good, down the chuff = bad
“Chuff” in the context of rock climbing = bad, made an effort but didn’t get very far / fell a lot
