Four pieces of work.
**Installable.** A manifest carrying the instance name, PWA icons rasterised
from the existing mark at design time, a service worker and a themed offline
page. The worker caches the shell only and bails out on /api/, /auth/, /admin/
and anything accepting text/event-stream -- passing a reply stream through a
worker turns it into one delivery at the end, or nothing. It is served from
GET /sw.js rather than the static mount because a worker's scope is the path it
came from.
**Send and Stop are one button.** They were two, and the hidden one was never
hidden: `.btn` is display: inline-flex, which outranks the browser's own
`[hidden] { display: none }`, so Stop sat permanently beside Send. app.css now
forces the attribute to win -- every control toggled with `hidden` depended on
that -- and the composer renders one button carrying both icons, with ui.js
flipping data-composer-action and the type with it.
**Audio.** Speech to text and text to speech against any OpenAI-shaped
/v1/audio/* endpoint: dictate into the composer, have a reply read out.
Instance settings in Admin, per-reader overrides in Settings, with the voice
list discovered from the server where it offers one. Recorded audio is capped
and never written to disk -- it is not an attachment, it has no owner, and
nothing would ever sweep it.
**Web search, as a tool.** This is the tool loop PLAN.md described as the real
work: one reply is now a bounded sequence of requests rather than one. The model
asks, the tool runs, the result goes back and it is asked again, up to three
rounds. Providers are DuckDuckGo (no setup), SearXNG and Firecrawl.
Two decisions worth stating. Tools are only offered to models flagged `tools`,
because an endpoint without support rejects the whole request rather than
ignoring the array -- the same reason images only reach models flagged
`vision`. And tool results are not replayed as context on the next turn, for the
same reasons reasoning is not: the answer already contains what the model made
of them, and replaying stale results into every later request wastes the window
and reliably sends a small model into a search loop. The sources stay visible in
the transcript instead.
Search results are untrusted third-party text and are treated as such: escaped,
and only http/https URLs rendered as links.
338 tests, ruff clean.

**Replies now run in the background.** Generation was driven by the SSE
request, so navigating away or opening another chat cut the answer off
mid-sentence. services/generation.py owns the work as its own task and
the SSE endpoint merely follows it. Verified: attached briefly, closed
the connection, went to another page -- the reply finished anyway, 832
characters, not marked stopped, auto-titled.
Reattaching works because both `render` and `reasoning` frames now carry
the whole block rather than a delta. A follower arriving late has no
earlier fragments to append to, so deltas would leave it permanently
missing the beginning. Verified: attached six seconds in and the first
frame already contained 517 characters written while nobody watched.
**Unread indicator.** A reply that lands with no follower attached marks
its chat unread; the sidebar polls every 10s for out-of-band dot spans
plus an HX-Trigger that raises a toast. Polled rather than pushed: a
browser sitting on another chat has no connection to the one that
finished, and an always-on channel per tab is a lot of machinery for a
green dot. `unread_notified` stops the same arrival being announced
every tick. Follower count is what decides "was anyone watching", so
reading it as it arrives does not mark it unread -- verified both ways.
**Stop is the send button.** While a reply is being written the send
button becomes a red stop square, found via a MutationObserver on the
thread since the composer and the streaming bubble are far apart in the
document. The in-bubble Stop is gone.
**Attachment border removed.** As asked -- an attachment is a picture,
and the frame only ever drew at the wrong width. The anchor now
shrink-wraps and the img's width/height attributes are overridden so a
small image shows at its own size.
Adds PLAN.md: what is built, what is not, known limits, and the
decisions that look like oversights until you know the reason.
