v2026.02.26.3 — Multi-conversation chat with sidebar history

on GitHub

Multi-conversation chat with sidebar history

ChatGPT/Claude-style conversation management in the web dashboard.

What's new

• Sidebar conversation list — scrollable list under Chat nav item showing recent conversations with auto-generated titles, click to switch, hover-to-delete (X), and "+ New chat" button
• Persistent chat history — messages survive page refreshes and reconnects, grouped by conversation
• Conversation management — create new chats, switch between past conversations, delete old ones
• Chat header — shows conversation title + message count with "New Chat" button
• Conversations table — new conversations table (display-layer, separate from LLM session context) with conversation_id on chat_messages
• 5 gateway commands — conversations (list with msg_count), chat_history (accepts conversation_id for switching), delete_conversation, updated clear (preserves history, resets LLM context only)
• StreamingText fix — history-loaded messages no longer show empty boxes; typewriter animation only applies to live responses
