Chat history (IndexedDB)
Conversations are stored per user in the browser (IndexedDB): list, open, start new chat, delete past threads, with debounced save.
What this is
Signed-in chats are stored in IndexedDB in this browser, keyed to your Kahana user. You can list threads, resume, start New chat, and delete old ones.
How to use it
- Open chat history from the assistant header.
- Pick a thread to load messages into the timeline.
- New chat clears the composer for a fresh session while keeping other threads on disk.
Notes and limits
Clearing site data for the profile can erase IndexedDB; export important answers separately if needed.

Shows when a browser “tool” action is in progress so users know the assistant is acting on the browser, not only typing text.
Assistant themes
Multiple light and dark themes for the assistant chrome (not only system theme); choice syncs via prefs / bridge.
Busy / streaming state
Visual feedback while the model or tools are working (AssistantBusyBar, streaming into the timeline).
