streaming.WriteCompaction packages a 'compaction' event with the
kept/older turn counts, summary tokens and provider-reported
window/used tokens so the client can hint 'context optimized' to the
user without parsing the stream body.
streamChat runs Compact before BuildMessages and writes the event
right after start, ensuring the client sees it before any chunk is
emitted. Add a runner test that exercises limitRAGContext to keep
the system prompt + RAG block under the configured window.
Conversations survive page reloads and work for any frontend, not just
the widget. Server-side SQLite, conversation ID as bearer token, browser
identity via localStorage.
Backend
-------
- internal/portfolio/conversations.go: schema + CRUD. Conversations and
messages tables in the same SQLite DB as the RAG index, with
foreign-key cascade delete. Conv IDs are 16-byte random hex
(128 bits of entropy).
- internal/portfolio/indexer.go: applies conversation schema + enables
foreign_keys pragma in OpenStore.
- internal/server/handlers.go: POST /api/chat accepts an optional
conversation_id, mints one if absent, persists user message before
the LLM runs and assistant message (with sources) after the stream
completes. New handlers: GetConversation, ListConversations,
DeleteConversation.
- internal/server/server.go: routes for GET /api/conversations,
GET/DELETE /api/conversations/{id}.
- internal/server/conversations_test.go: 6 tests (round-trip, continue,
list, 404, delete, streaming).
Widget
------
- web/chat-widget.js: stores conv_id in localStorage["rony-chat-conv"],
includes it in the chat request body, captures new IDs from the
server's 'start' SSE event, and calls GET /api/conversations/{id} on
load to restore history. On 404 it clears the stored ID and starts
fresh.
Docs
----
- docs/architecture.md: §3.1 documents the conversation_id field and
new REST endpoints; new §3.4 covers persistence lifecycle, schema,
client responsibilities, and auth model. §5.6 updated; filetree
reflects the new files.
- web/README.md: new 'Conversation persistence' section explains the
browser-scoped behavior and how to opt out or persist across devices.
