The welcome chose the journal's words whenever the Studio had not
registered as the chat's host, which also hit the Studio's own panel
before (or without) that registration. A journey's chat now speaks of the
journal only where the window or the phone's chat screen say they show it
for its journal; everywhere else, the Studio included, it stays the book's.
AssistantWindow had gone past the complexity limit choosing between the
planner's trip, the journal on screen, a picked chat and the home chat;
that choice now lives in windowChat.
On /journey/:id the assistant window and the phone's assistant screen now
open the journey's conversation, the one TREK Studio holds too, instead of
the home chat; the Studio route keeps its own column. A turn sent from a
chat the Studio does not host names the journal page, a hosted one the
Studio, so the server offers the right tools. A journal card from the home
chat opens that conversation in place on the desktop and the journal page
on the phone, and the empty chat asks about the journal rather than the
book.
A third scope, home, next to trip and journey: threads that name neither a
trip nor a journey (the CHECK now only forbids both), reached under
/api/assistant by their owner only. A home turn reads the user's trips
through list_trips into a short card (under way, next, later, behind,
undated), offers every read (a trip's on the id the model names, checked by
the tool with the user's rights) and only the writes that take no trip or
journey (atlas, vacation planner, collections, tour library, settings), all
held as change cards. open_trip_chat answers with a card that goes on in
that trip's own chat with the question waiting in its composer.
On the desktop the window opens on the home chat outside a trip; its head
lists the trips to switch into and a switched trip chat has the way back.
On the phone the home chat opens full screen from the dashboard head and the
dock's More list, and the card opens the trip with its chat. Both run on
useAssistantHome.
The column took the page's room and cut the spread off. The Studio now opens
the same movable, resizable window as the planner, kept under its own key and
below the Studio's bar; its frame moved into assistantFrame.ts and
AssistantFrameEdges so both windows share it.
- agent loop and decisions without await in loops: steps as recursion,
calls and applied changes in order through one promise chain, the
independent reads and claims in parallel; part mapping in its own helpers
- place card, header and weather strip without refs or components created
in render; long hooks and components split; state reset during render
- trip notes only in a turn's tool session, never an undo's; map view
reported only while the assistant can run
- place strip scrolls through the strip's own smooth scroll, no physical side
- tests follow the raised limits and the new card fields; toasts read through
a mocked useToast instead of a window global; baselines lowered where the
counts fell
The three AI addons share one tile in the integration column; a dialog holds
the connection, the assistant's limits and AI parsing, which now reads with
the assistant's connection unless an install keeps its own. Existing parsing
configs stay where they are and keep winning.
The chat sees the map on screen, offers next questions under an answer,
shows its live step in the window head, previews waiting changes inside the
day list, checks whether a day still works, folds a multi-day plan into a
week grid, keeps per-trip notes and can estimate costs. An empty or cut-off
answer gets one push instead of ending silently, and the assistant's own
step and size limits are raised.
Adds an in-app assistant that reads and plans the open trip. Users connect
their own provider (Sign in with ChatGPT, or an Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini or
OpenRouter key) or use the one the admin set up, including a custom
OpenAI-compatible server. It is an addon and only shows while a connection
is usable.
The chat runs on the existing MCP tools, pinned to the trip. Every change is
held as a change card the user applies or discards, and applied changes can
be undone. On the desktop it is a floating window that can be moved and
resized; on the phone it is fullscreen. Search results show as place cards
that can go onto a day, weather lookups as a strip, proposed places as
ghost markers on the map with a before/after switch, and an answer can be
shared into the trip chat. Booking files can be dropped in and are read
into change cards.
