Go to WelcomeScreen when active session is deleted
...
Previously deleting the active session would load the first session from
the list. Now it calls clearSession() which resets currentId to null,
and showWelcome now triggers on currentId === null (not just empty list).

Add Ollama multi-server fallback with in-memory blacklisting
...
- New FallbackOllamaBackend (navi/llm/fallback.py): tries servers and
models in priority order; on LLMConnectionError blacklists the server
for the process lifetime, on LLMModelNotFoundError blacklists the
(server, model) pair — eliminates latency from repeated failed probes
- OllamaBackend now raises typed LLMConnectionError / LLMModelNotFoundError
instead of bare LLMBackendError; accepts list[str] | str | None for model
- AgentProfile.model changed from str to list[str] (str auto-normalised);
all profiles updated to ["gemma4:31b-cloud", "gemma4:26b-a4b-it-q4_K_M"]
- New config field OLLAMA_BACKENDS_FILE: path to [{host, api_key?}] JSON;
when set, registry creates FallbackOllamaBackend instead of OllamaBackend
- ollama_backends.json template added (gitignored — contains API key)
- current_model ContextVar type widened to list[str] | str | None

Make server I/O non-blocking; update docs
...
- Wrap all heavy filesystem ops in asyncio.to_thread: filesystem tool
(read/write/append/list/find/info/move/delete/query/smart_edit),
image_view (read_bytes), share_file (shutil.copy2), write_tool
(write_text, _register_user_tool), session_files (shutil.rmtree,
iterdir), sessions upload endpoint (sync open/write → to_thread)
- Make delete_session_dir async; update its caller in sessions.py
- docs/config.md: fix wrong defaults (threshold 0.70, keep_recent 8),
remove phantom SESSION_FILES_TTL_HOURS, add LLM timeouts, DATABASE_URL,
PUBLIC_URL, Gmail, CONTEXT_SUMMARY_MAX_TOKENS sections
- docs/profiles.md: add missing tool_developer profile to table
- android-client: add WebView remote debugging; remove unused toolbar menu
- Remove stale helper scripts and test files

Add Android WebView client (android-client/)
...
Thin Android shell that loads the Navi web interface from a configured
server URL. All UI served from the server — no local assets, no rebuild
needed for interface updates.
Features:
- First-launch setup screen to enter server URL (stored in SharedPreferences)
- On connection error: clears saved URL so next launch re-asks
- Full-screen WebView, no toolbar
- Camera + gallery + file picker via WebChromeClient.onShowFileChooser
- HTTP cleartext enabled for local network access
- targetSdk 34 to avoid forced edge-to-edge on Android 15
- Adaptive icon: logo SVG converted to Android vector drawable

Agent improvements: mandatory planning, tool cleanup, smart_edit fixes
...
- Planning now mandatory on first message of every session (force_plan)
- RESOURCES, COMMITMENTS, ATOMICITY fields added to planning phase 1
- Todo auto-injected at iteration 0 so model tracks steps immediately
- Execution trigger injected after plan to prevent model treating plan as response
- Split developer profile: tool_developer (Navi tools) vs developer (general code)
- Simplified persona.txt: trimmed redundant content now handled by mechanics
- AIHelper.ask(): 120s timeout via asyncio.wait_for to prevent smart_edit hangs
- filesystem._smart_edit(): atomic write via temp file + os.replace()
- Removed 5 junk user tools (game project artifacts, trivial utilities)
- Removed instagram tools (to be rewritten); cleaned enabled.json

Restructure persona: concrete information gathering protocol
...
- Replace abstract CONTEXT FIRST principle with explicit numbered protocol
(check summary → memory_search → NAVI.md → ask user)
- Move protocol to top of persona (after identity) so it has maximum weight
- NAVI.md section: remove READ instructions (now in protocol), keep only WRITE
- LONG-TERM MEMORY: remove "search proactively" line (now in protocol),
keep only save/forget instructions
- memory_search description: remove misleading "call at start of each session"
(summary is already auto-injected); clarify when to actually call it

Improve memory search: normalize query, AND-first, relevance scoring
...
- _normalize_query(): hyphens/underscores/slashes/dots → word boundaries,
strip all other punctuation, lowercase — fixes comma-separated keyword bug
- Auto-dump: if ≤ 60 facts in DB, skip search and return all (no false negatives
in a small personal memory store)
- AND-first: try matching all terms; fall back to OR only when AND returns nothing
- OR-fallback with scoring: facts matching more terms rank higher (score DESC),
ties broken by recency

Tighten AGENT step scoping in planning prompt

Added comma test heuristic: if a step description lists things with
'and' or commas, each item is a separate step. Added code-specific
guidance: one step = one file or one focused feature addition, never
scaffold + logic + helpers combined. Replaced abstract good/bad
examples with concrete code implementation examples.

Fix session switch race: connect WS after REST fetch completes
...
loadSession was setting currentId before the REST fetch, which triggered
ws.connect() immediately. If WS replay arrived before the REST response,
onStreamStart() would push a streaming message, then the REST response
would overwrite messages.value entirely — leaving streamingMsg pointing
to an orphaned object no longer in the array.
Fix: move currentId and location.hash assignment to after the REST fetch
so the WS connection is established only once messages are populated.

WebSocket event replay buffer for disconnect resilience
...
On reconnect to an active agent run the server now replays all events
emitted since the turn started, then switches to live forwarding.
This eliminates the gap where tool cards, thinking blocks and stream
deltas were permanently lost after a network blip.
Server (_AgentRun):
- events: list[dict] buffers every serialised agent event
- broadcast() serialises and appends before putting in subscriber queues
- reconnect flow: subscribe → replay_count snapshot → stream_start →
replay events[0:replay_count] → live _stream_to_client
Client:
- onStreamStart() removes the frozen ghost message instead of marking
done=true, so replay cleanly rebuilds the message from scratch
- replayMode flag suppresses animations during replay
- onReplayStart/onReplayEnd handlers set/clear the flag and restore
animate on the message once live events resume

When a todo step is newly marked failed, queue a targeted system message
for the next iteration prompting the model to revise its remaining pending
steps before continuing. Enabled by adaptive_replan_enabled flag (on by

Autonomous reasoning improvements: budget, anchoring, anti-stall, validation
...
- AgentProfile: per-profile thinking mechanics flags (think_enabled,
iteration_budget_enabled, goal_anchoring, anti_stall, step_validation,
planning_reflect, adaptive_replan) — all profiles updated in config.json
- Iteration budget: inject remaining iterations into context so model knows
when to wrap up; urgency levels at ≤7 and ≤3 remaining
- Goal anchoring: inject original goal + todo state every N iterations to
prevent drift on long tasks
- Anti-stall: two signals — no todo progress for N iterations, or identical
tool calls repeated N times; warning injected into context
- Todo step validation: marking done requires a validation field describing
how result was verified; failed gets a soft nudge with tip for re-planning
- stream_complete: add think param to base class, ollama and openai backends
- Summarizer: raise max_tokens 1024→3000, expand system prompt with
user-preferences section and verbatim-value instructions
- Compression card: persist to session.messages (is_compression flag on
Message), show expandable summary in webclient with markdown body
- ToolResult.to_message_content: always include output on failure so
tracebacks and error details reach the model (fixes silent Error: None)
- Developer profile: fix subagent profile secretary→developer, add write_tool
to subagent_tools, clarify write_tool vs filesystem in system prompt

Planning debug panel, todo auto-populate, scratchpad/persona improvements
...
- Planning debug panel: new Planning tab in debug/index.html shows raw
phase 1/2 outputs and token counts per planning run, stored in
session.planning_logs (new column in both SQLite and PostgreSQL)
- New GET /sessions/{id}/planning API endpoint
- PlanningDebugData internal event wires _run_planning() output into
session storage; never forwarded to WebSocket clients
- Phase 3 (plan critic) disabled — to be reworked with reflect integration
- Todo tool: auto-populated from plan steps after phase 2; model only
needs to call update/view, not set
- Scratchpad: clarified description and persona instructions; removed
context_transfer from user-facing docs (internal mechanism only)
- web_search: switched to ddgs package, SearXNG as primary backend,
DDG html-only fallback; added find_up action to filesystem tool
- Persona: added SCRATCHPAD and TODO sections with clear usage rules;
added NAVI.md project context instructions
- chat.js: fixed subagent planning event fallthrough into parent UI;
statusLabel cleared on first stream delta

Strip spurious separator rows from GFM tables in markdown renderer
...
Model often emits | --- | --- | --- | rows as visual dividers between
table body rows. fixTables() now tracks whether the header separator has
been seen; any subsequent all-separator pipe row is dropped rather than
passed through to marked.js where it renders as a data row with --- content.
Existing fixes (missing separator injection, mixed row repair) are preserved.

Route subagent planning events into spawn_agent card in the UI
...
Previously PlanningStatus/PlanReady had no is_subagent flag, so subagent
planning spinners and plan cards rendered as top-level Navi planning UI.
Backend:
- Add is_subagent field to PlanningStatus and PlanReady events
- _run_planning accepts is_subagent param, passes it through all yields
- run_ephemeral calls _run_planning with is_subagent=True
- websocket.py forwards is_subagent in planning_status and plan_ready messages
Frontend (chat.js):
- onPlanningStatus: if is_subagent, set planningLabel on the last spawn_agent
card instead of msg.statusLabel
- onPlanReady: if is_subagent, push plan into spawn card steps and clear
planningLabel; otherwise behave as before
Frontend (ToolCard.vue):
- Render subagent-planning-indicator (spinner + label) when planningLabel set
- Render plan cards inside subagent steps using the same plan-card pattern
Also includes leftover session changes: spawn_agent default 40 in description
and manual, updated manual content.

_build_system_prompt(profile) which includes the full orchestrator
persona and profiles block — subagents now plan with only their own

context_transfer is the scratchpad section name used internally by spawn_agent

about it. Removed from: persona, secretary, server_admin, spawn_agent description,
manual. Internal code (spawn_agent.py) still reads the section transparently.
