Four defects found by on-device UAT, 2026-08-06.
1. D-08 persistence was WRITE-ONLY. chat() loaded the transcript only
AFTER the loop, to append — the model was never shown any of it. The
assistant answered "I don't have access to any previous conversation
history" with its own transcript on disk, and "and is it healthy?"
resolved to the node instead of the app just discussed. History now
replays into every turn (text only: a stale tool result must not be
re-presented as this turn's evidence), scoped by HistoryKey. The
replayed prefix is excluded from the append, or each turn would
re-persist the conversation and grow it geometrically.
2. The operator persona forbade the very answers the content surfaces
render. 13-01's prompt refuses anything without a matching tool, so
"recommend me 10 sci-fi films" was declined and the film/song/podcast
grids from 13-11 could never populate — two plans in contradiction.
The refusal rule now governs ACTIONS ON THE NODE; general questions
and recommendations are answered from the model's own knowledge.
(Whether the node should also SEARCH THE WEB depends on AIUI's
web-search setting, which embedded mode never forwards — captured as
a separate todo because it opens a new egress path.)
3. The content-surface loader labelled unrelated queries "Podcast
recommendations": the classifier matched a bare "show", which is how
operators phrase almost everything ("show me my files").
4. "Surfacing…" tracks at 0.2em and its final glyph collided with the
close button; the header now spaces them properly.
assistant::history 9/9 green incl. replay_feeds_prior_turns_back_to_the_model.
