ducoterra ffa919b8bf fix(chat): keep in-flight answers alive across in-app view switches
Root cause (owner repro, verified in a real browser 2026-09-06): the
five navbar views (Chat, RAG, Sources, Tuning, History) were separate
HTML documents, so a navbar click was a REAL cross-document navigation
— the chat page unloaded, the in-flight SSE fetch was aborted, and the
phase-48 teardown (app/api/chat.py `finally`, "chat: turn cancelled")
stopped the model. Observed: send question -> click RAG mid-stream ->
click Chat -> the answer never finished: no `query_log` row, and on
return a dangling question with no brain record (the pre-token pagehide
partial persist skips because `acc` is empty).

Phase-48 LOCKED-DECISION REFINEMENT (owner-confirmed 2026-09-06,
flagged per AGENTS.md rule 3, not silently deviated): "real navigation
cancels the fetch" now means LEAVING THE APP — tab close,
external/other-document navigation, the Stop button. In-app navbar
switches are client-side view switches and no longer cancel.

Fix — Option A (SPA shell), chosen over B (Service Worker owns the
stream) and C (server-side turn registry + resume):
- frontend/index.html is the shell: ONE `<main id="main">` holds the
  five `<section class="view">` blocks; hidden views carry BOTH
  `hidden` and `inert` (WCAG — no focus/keyboard traversal). The
  shared header, the single `doc-modal-*` skeleton, and the
  `#app-version` footer each exist exactly once; the per-view copies
  from the four folded pages are dropped.
- New frontend/assets/router.js (vanilla module — no framework, no
  bundler, No-CDN rule intact): lazy-imports a view module on FIRST
  show only (mount-once, hide-forever — the chat view's in-flight SSE
  reader persists across switches; that persistence IS the fix);
  intercepts same-shell navbar links with preventDefault +
  history.pushState (never a document load); handles popstate; single
  writer of `.nav-link` active state (is-active + aria-current),
  document.title, and the per-view meta description (values carried
  over from the old pages' heads, brand-resolved at write time).
- Each folded page's JS becomes `export async function mount(root)` —
  root-scoped queries; `initSharedHeader()` dropped (the header boots
  once in the shell via the chat module; the admin flag comes from the
  same cached `fetchIsAdmin()` promise — zero extra requests).
- app/main.py: a small list-driven route factory serves the shell for
  /tuning.html, /sources.html, /git-sources.html, /history.html —
  registered AFTER the API routers and BEFORE the static catch-all
  (routes-first). The phase-33 caching middleware applies no-cache +
  `?v=` rewriting unchanged; app/core/caching.py needed NO change
  (the view paths did not change — pinned by the integration tests).
- The four old view .html files are DELETED (one source of truth);
  deep links to the old URLs keep working (the router picks the view
  from the pathname); `/?chat=<id>` is unaffected; the Containerfile
  bundles router.js (inlining the lazy view modules) and drops the
  folded page files.
- app/schemas.py: HistoryTurn.text cap 4000 -> 32000 — the shell
  keeps long saved answers in the chat, and the old cap (stricter than
  the 24_000-char total history budget) 422-rejected any second turn
  in such a chat (found by the phase-42 E2E suite on the shell).

Boundaries: login.html, shared.html, doc-edit.html, document.html
REMAIN separate documents (flow pages, not navbar tabs); a mid-stream
navigation to doc-edit/document.html still cancels per phase 48
(follow-up candidate, out of scope). The SSE API is unchanged. Real
departures still cancel the turn — phase 48 intact (pinned by
tests/e2e/test_stop_generation.py, unchanged, and by the new suite's
real-departure control).

Tests:
- Phase-20 suite REWRITTEN to the new semantics
  (tests/e2e/test_sources_midstream_bug.py): a navbar switch no longer
  cancels — the stream survives the switch and the FULL answer
  settles; the pagehide partial persist REMAINS for real departures
  (the partial's exact shape — first streamed chunk prefix, no done
  metadata — is still pinned there).
- NEW story suite tests/e2e/test_nav_switch_keeps_stream.py (mock
  LLM): the owner repro (send -> RAG mid-stream -> Chat: window
  sentinel survives = same document, FULL answer, exactly one brain
  turn in bor.chat.v1, exactly one settled query_log row, auto-saved
  row matches) + the same mid-stream switch against the other three
  views + the real-departure-still-cancels control + the no-switch
  baseline.
- tests/unit/test_frontend_router.py: source-level pins of the router
  invariants (click interceptor targets ONLY same-shell view paths,
  pushState-only switches, mount-once guard, hidden+inert pair,
  single-writer active state/title); shell-route integration tests
  (each folded path serves the shell with no-cache + `?v=` body; a
  non-view path still 404s); the file-reading unit pins re-pointed at
  the shell (the four view files are gone — the shell is the source
  of truth).

Verification (this commit): full suite green — 1565 unit+integration
tests, app/ coverage 99% (>90% floor); ruff + pyright clean; the
phase's E2E suites green in isolation (house protocol, AGENTS.md rule
9). Owner repro verified in a real browser against the real LLM
(dev server :8010, headful Chromium): "tell me about everquest" ->
RAG mid-stream -> Chat — the answer completed with one brain bubble
and no error banner, `query_log` gained exactly one settled row
(deflected=True: the dev KB holds no EverQuest docs — the settle, not
the topic, is the proof), zero "chat: turn cancelled" lines for that
turn; the control (real navigation to /shared.html mid-stream) still
cancelled (no settled row, the cancel line logged, the partial
persisted on return). Screenshots: .agents/screenshots/76_manual_*.

Phase 76 (76_spa_nav_shell) complete — moved to
.agents/phases/complete/.

/* Brain of Reese — History view (saved chats, phase 50 task 04;
* phase 76 task 03: shell view module).
*
* TODO.md L5 (owner 2026-08-29): "Need a way to save and view chat
* history in a new page, then return to that history with a click."
*
* Wires the admin-only `GET /api/chats` + `POST /api/chats/<id>/share`
* + `POST /api/chats/<id>/unshare` + `DELETE /api/chats/<id>`
* endpoints (phase 50 task 02; phase 51 task 01+02) into the view's
* full-width table:
*
* • Title — an `<a href="/?chat=<id>">`: Open IS the title link
* ("return to that history with a click") — the chat page boots
* into the saved conversation through ?chat= (task 03);
* • Messages — the row's message_count;
* • Updated — locale date+time, the full ISO in the title attribute;
* • Stale — phase 53 (task 04): the READ-ONLY staleness marker,
* rendered from the row's `stale` flag (the server computes it —
* the client never does staleness math): a rose "Stale" pill when
* the row was saved before the last KB-changing sync, an em-dash
* when fresh. The Regenerate action is NOT here — it lives on the
* chat-page banner (task 05); opening the row is the action;
* • Share — phase 51 (owner-locked 2026-08-29, TODO.md L6): the
* row's share state, rendered from the list's OWN share_url (the
* GET /api/chats endpoint populates it — no second fetch per row).
* Three states: unshared → [Create link] (POST share → the cell
* re-renders shared + the link is offered for copying); shared →
* [Copy] [Unshare]; confirming → the inline two-step "Unshare?
* [Yes] [No]" (the phase-50 Delete-confirm pattern + CSS — no
* native dialog) — Yes POSTs /api/chats/<id>/unshare (revokes),
* the cell re-renders unshared + the live region;
* • Actions — Delete, inline TWO-STEP confirm (owner-locked
* 2026-08-29: no native confirm dialog anywhere in this file) —
* the first click swaps the button for
* "Delete? [Yes] [No]" (focus moves to Yes, so the confirm is
* keyboard-reachable), Yes fires the DELETE and removes the row,
* No (or a failed request) keeps it.
*
* The share copy has the owner-locked inline-link fallback: a
* non-secure (http) homelab origin rejects navigator.clipboard, so the
* offer renders a transient .share-link-fallback <a> field (input-like,
* selects its full URL on focus) in the row's share cell — this file
* keeps its OWN copy of the ~10-line helper (the per-page duplication
* house style; app.js keeps the chat page's) rather than a new shared
* module.
*
* Every cell is built with the DOM APIs (textContent) — the title is
* user-derived (the auto-title is the first question), so it NEVER
* touches innerHTML (XSS-safe by construction, the sources.js house
* rule).
*
* The whoami gate (phase 19 shared-header module, cached promise):
* • anonymous → the #history-gate is shown, the table is hidden,
* and NO /api/chats request is made at all (the router 403s
* anonymous — the story E2E pins the request log);
* • admin → the gate hides and `loadChats()` renders the rows; a
* 0-row fetch reveals the empty-state row.
*
* Phase 76 (task 03) — shell view module (the "History" view of the
* ONE-document shell; /history.html now serves the shell, and
* assets/router.js lazy-imports THIS module on first show):
*
* • the top-level boot is now `export async function mount(root)` —
* root is the view's <section id="view-history">, and every DOM
* lookup scopes to root (the view ids stay unique across the
* shell — scoped lookups keep the module honest and testable).
* The router mounts a view ONCE (mount-once, hide-forever), so
* the binding + state survive every switch.
* • the initSharedHeader() call is DROPPED: in the shell the shared
* header boots exactly once, via the chat module (app.js) at shell
* boot — the view never re-boots it. The admin gate keeps
* fetchIsAdmin() — the SAME cached /api/whoami promise header.js
* exports (zero extra requests; the flag decides whether the
* table loads at all, the Sources-page gate pattern).
* • the row actions stay REAL navigations: the Open link
* (?chat=<id>) and the copy-link field are plain anchor targets —
* opening a saved chat is a chat-view concern handled by app.js
* at boot via ?chat=, and the router never intercepts them (they
* are not navbar links, and their query string keeps them out of
* the VIEW map).
