Add a refresh button (↻) to the weather section header in BriefingView so
users can manually re-fetch weather data (needed after deploying the hourly
precip changes to populate the cache). Update the existing POST
/api/briefing/weather/refresh endpoint to return full card data instead of
just location keys.

RSS is now off by default. When disabled:
- Scheduler skips RSS feed sync during compilation slot
- Briefing pipeline skips RSS item gathering
- RSS LLM tools (get_rss_items, add_rss_feed) are hidden
- API routes return empty results for feeds/news
- Frontend hides News nav link, RSS Feeds and News Preferences in settings
- Briefing view hides news sidebar section

Discuss flow was hallucinating unrelated content when article
extraction returned empty or RAG pulled in orphan notes that looked
more relevant than the generic seed prompt.
- seed_article_discussion raises EmptyArticleError on empty body;
briefing and /news routes return 422 instead of staging an empty
synthetic tool result.
- build_context skips RAG auto-injection when user_message matches
ARTICLE_DISCUSS_SEED so the article IS the context on turn one;
follow-up turns keep RAG on.

Both the /news discuss button and the briefing discuss button now call a
shared seed_article_discussion() helper that stages the synthetic
read_article tool exchange and the conversational seed prompt — behavior
stays byte-identical across entry points. /news also auto-starts
generation so the chat screen lands on an in-flight stream.
First assistant reply in a seeded article conversation is persisted as a
Note (tags: article-summary + article topics) and backlinked via
rss_items.discussion_note_id, so the knowledge base stops being amnesiac
about articles the user has engaged with.

The Discuss button on news cards was producing one-shot replies because
the model got the whole trafilatura blob dropped into history with a
canned "summarize and discuss this article" prompt — no length guard, no
prep, no invitation to converse. Large articles got silently truncated by
Ollama; small articles got a tepid reply.
This reworks discuss_article around a three-layer cache:
context_prepared → content_full → fresh trafilatura fetch
First click on a small article fetches once, writes through to both
caches, and passes the body straight into the synthetic read_article
tool-result. First click on a large article additionally runs a parallel
map step (services/article_context.py) that chunks the body on paragraph
boundaries, summarizes each ~8k chunk to ~300 words of dense factual
prose via the background model, and concatenates the summaries under
section headers — all pinned to num_ctx=16384 so the map step doesn't
itself fall victim to silent truncation. Repeat clicks on either path
skip straight to the chat turn.
The canned summary prompt is replaced with a conversational seed that
invites the user into an actual discussion rather than a one-shot
synopsis, matching the goal of "have a conversation about an article,
not just read it."
discuss_topic is intentionally left untouched — it's the multi-article
aggregation path and needs a separate rework. Follow-up task will decide
whether to retire it or rework it on the cached-context approach.
Closes task #106.

Two related bugs where the server defaulted naive datetimes to UTC instead
of the configured user timezone, causing all-day events to land on the
previous day and briefings to "disappear" at UTC midnight.
- New services/tz.py helpers: get_user_tz, user_today, user_briefing_date
(the briefing day flips at 4am local to align with the compilation slot,
so the 00:00-04:00 local window still shows yesterday's briefing until
the new one is generated).
- calendar create/list/update tools now parse naive datetimes in the
user's TZ before converting to UTC for storage, and tool descriptions
tell the model to pass plain local dates.
- briefing_conversations.get_or_create_today_conversation and the
reset-today route use user_briefing_date so the in-progress briefing
doesn't get replaced at 19:00 NY / UTC midnight.
- _run_profile_closeout targets user-local "yesterday" for consistency.
Regression tests added for the TZ helpers and the calendar tool.

Adds 38 parametrized tests for the _should_think classifier covering the
explicit-override path, empty/whitespace content, short/medium/long length
boundaries, case-insensitive keyword matching, and a chatty-message negative
set. These pin the content-based semantics so future tweaks to the keyword
list or length thresholds surface regressions immediately instead of going
unnoticed behind subtle latency changes.
Also drops the `think=True` overrides from the briefing /discuss-article
and /discuss-topic entry points. With `"discuss"` added to _THINK_KEYWORDS,
those canned prompts trip the classifier naturally, so the overrides were
redundant — keeping a uniform "classifier is authoritative" rule makes the
code easier to reason about.

Ollama's /api/tags returns whatever casing was used at pull time
(e.g. 'gemma3:12B' if the user ran 'ollama pull gemma3:12B'), but
/api/chat rejects mixed-case tags with a 400. The two code paths
are inconsistent, which surfaces the capitalized tag in the model
dropdown and then silently kills every chat request against it.
Lowercase on read (get_installed_models), on settings write
(update_settings_route), and on ensure_model() input so a legacy
mixed-case user setting can't trigger a spurious re-pull at
startup. The dropdown and stored settings are now always in the
form Ollama will actually accept.

Three related fixes uncovered while benchmarking qwen3:14b against 8b:
- pick_num_ctx was only counting message content, missing the ~15K
tokens of tool schemas. num_ctx=8192 was being selected while actual
prompt_tokens hit 14K+, causing silent prompt truncation on every
tool-using request. Now includes json.dumps(tools) in the estimate.
KV cache priming in app.py and routes/settings.py also fetches tools
so the primed num_ctx matches what real chat requests will use.
- _should_think's heuristic classifier was overriding explicit
think=true requests from the frontend toggle and MCP, gating on
message length and regex patterns. Now a pass-through — the caller
is the source of truth. quick_capture hardcodes think=False since
it's a fast classification path that was relying on the old gating.
- delete_note description only mentioned "note or task", so the model
refused to call it for entries created by save_person / save_place /
create_list. Description now explicitly lists all five note_types it
handles.

Merge create_task into create_note (set status='todo' for tasks, omit
for notes), merge delete_task into delete_note, consolidate entity
tools (create/update_person → save_person, create/update_place →
save_place), rename get_note → read_note with clearer descriptions,
move calculate out of rag.py into utility.py, and extract shared
duplicate detection into check_duplicate() helper.
Updates all downstream references in generation_task.py, quick_capture.py,
ToolCallCard.vue, and WorkspaceView.vue.

Deletes ~760 lines of legacy briefing code: format_task, compute_task_hash,
upsert_task_snapshots, _gather_internal, _gather_weekly_review,
_llm_synthesise, and the unified prompt helpers. run_compilation and
run_slot_injection are now agentic-tool-use-loop only.
briefing_scheduler and user_profile migrated from the deleted helper to
services.llm.generate_completion (retry + keep_alive baked in).
routes/briefing.manual_trigger now persists agentic tool-call receipts
via _persist_agentic_messages (previously silently dropped them) and
adds POST /api/briefing/reset-today to wipe today's briefing messages.
BREAKING: briefing_mode setting no longer honored; no legacy fallback.

Replace the hardcoded "2h" keep_alive everywhere with a helper that
returns OLLAMA_KEEP_ALIVE_MAIN (default 30m) for the interactive model
and OLLAMA_KEEP_ALIVE_BACKGROUND (default 10m) for the background
model. Lets the main model release VRAM during long idle periods
while keeping it warm enough for bursty chat use, and stops the
sporadic background model from camping VRAM it rarely needs.
Seven call sites updated to route through llm.keep_alive_for(model):
the streaming helpers, generate_completion, the two startup warmers,
the settings KV-cache primer, and the chat warmer endpoint.
Override via env vars: OLLAMA_KEEP_ALIVE_MAIN, OLLAMA_KEEP_ALIVE_BACKGROUND.

- Route now logs every synthesis request (char count, voice, speed)
- Route logs char count + text preview when the 8000-char limit is hit
- Route logs empty audio with preview (helps spot no-chunk-produced edge case)
- Route logs success with byte count and duration
- Kokoro synthesise() logs per-call: samples produced, elapsed, chars/s
- Kokoro synthesise() logs warning when zero audio chunks returned with preview
- Kokoro synthesise() catches and logs pipeline-internal errors with preview
- Frontend: console.warn now includes char count + 80-char preview on failure and retry

Removes the custom classify_capture_intent + _process_note two-pass
approach. The LLM now picks the right tool directly via Ollama's native
tool_calls API (same path as the main chat pipeline). _should_think
decides whether extended reasoning is needed based on input length/
complexity. intent.py deleted — no longer needed.
Android app and response format unchanged.

POST /api/briefing/articles/<id>/discuss injects stored article content
as a persisted read_article tool exchange before triggering generation.
The LLM sees the article as already read; follow-ups retain context via
the fixed history builder. Frontend Discuss button now calls the new
endpoint instead of inlining article text in the user message.

The history builder was silently dropping tool_calls from prior turns,
causing the LLM to lose article/search context on every follow-up.
Now reconstructs the assistant tool_call dict + per-call tool result
entries. Messages without tool_calls are unaffected.

- Startup now pulls Config.OLLAMA_MODEL (system default chat model) — previously only
embedding and background models were pulled; the primary chat model was skipped
- _warm_user_models expanded to also pull user-configured default_model and
background_model overrides that are missing from Ollama, rather than logging and
skipping them; pulls run before warm/KV-cache priming
- Add background_model to _MODEL_KEYS in settings route so clearing the dropdown
deletes the DB row instead of saving "", which caused Ollama failures in tag
suggestions, title generation, project summaries, and RSS classification
- Add http/https scheme validation to PUT /api/admin/base-url matching the CalDAV
route pattern; a bad value no longer silently breaks invite/password-reset links
- Update admin voice config description: "Reload models" button exists to avoid
a server restart, so the old "restart required" text was misleading

- PUT/PATCH/DELETE /api/tasks/:id now use get_note_for_user + can_write_note
so shared project editors can mutate tasks; owners unaffected
- PATCH /api/tasks/:id/status gets same treatment
- All write routes call update_note/delete_note with note.user_id (owner)
not the accessing user's uid, matching the milestone fix pattern
- create_task tool gains tags (array) and status (enum) parameters;
handler now passes tags to create_note and respects initial status
- create_task tool response now includes milestone_id and parent_id
- update_note tool gains milestone parameter; handler resolves the
milestone by title within the note's current (or newly set) project,
clears milestone_id when project is cleared
- list_tasks tool gains q keyword search parameter; passed through
to list_notes
- TaskEditorView: replace window.location.reload() with
router.push('/tasks/:id') after save
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Project.to_dict() now includes user_id and auto_summary
- Status validation unified to (active/completed/archived) on both
create and update project routes; update route previously had none
- Milestone routes: replace get_project (ownership-only) with
get_project_for_user so shared viewers/editors can access milestones
- Add get_milestone_in_project() to milestones service for project-
scoped lookup without user_id filter; all milestone routes use it
- Milestone PATCH now validates status as 'active'|'done'; fix tool
enum which was wrongly ['active','completed','cancelled']
- Write mutation routes (POST/PATCH/DELETE milestones) now check
can_write_project() and return 403 for read-only shared users
- update_project tool now exposes title and color fields so projects
can be renamed or recolored via chat
- create_project tool now exposes color field
- GET /api/projects?include_summary=true embeds summaries in one
backend pass; ProjectListView switches to this, eliminating N+1
per-project fetches

- cleanup_old_conversations now excludes briefing conversations (was
silently deleting briefing history after the retention window)
- list_conversations response now includes rag_project_id, matching the
shape returned by the single-conversation GET endpoint
- create_conversation_from_article: removed duplicate async_session import
(_session2 was a copy of the same import); consolidated into one
- MAX_TOOL_ROUNDS fixed from 5→6 to match the actual range(6) loop;
loop updated to range(MAX_TOOL_ROUNDS) so the constant is accurate
- Chat retention cleanup moved from per-request (every GET /conversations)
to a daily scheduled job in event_scheduler.py; route no longer runs
a DB write on every read

- RRULE expansion: list_events now expands recurring events into
individual occurrences within the query window using python-dateutil
- CalDAV pull sync: new caldav_sync.py + POST /api/events/sync route;
imports remote events into the internal store by caldav_uid
- Past event search: search_events accepts include_past=true to search
historical events; exposed in the LLM tool definition
- Internal reminders: migration 0037 adds reminder_minutes +
reminder_sent_at columns; event_scheduler.py checks every 5 min and
fires push notifications; CalDAV sync job runs hourly
- reminder_minutes now stored and returned in create/update routes + tools

Backend:
- tools.py: apply UTC normalization to update_event datetime fields
(matched create_event which already did this)
- events.py service: allow end_dt/recurrence/project_id to be cleared
via update_event by permitting None for nullable fields
- events.py service: find_events_by_query now returns upcoming events
first, falling back to past — prevents AI tools from mutating stale
past events when a future match exists
- events.py service: list_events now uses overlap logic (start <= to
AND end >= from) so multi-day events spanning the query boundary
are included; previously only start_dt was checked
Frontend:
- ToolCallCard: fire fable:calendar-changed on created/updated/deleted
so CalendarView refetches without requiring a manual page refresh
- KnowledgeView: replace raw apiGet('/api/events') with listEvents()
client function; also fix today bar which was reading .events off a
flat array (always empty) — now correctly receives EventEntry[]
- HomeView: use full ISO strings for event date range instead of naive
UTC-midnight strings; deduplicate inline date math via _dateRange()

Backend:
- GET /api/knowledge/ids: returns up to 100 note IDs cheaply (no body
parsing), supports same filters as /api/knowledge, includes has_more
- GET /api/knowledge/batch?ids=...: fetches full items for given IDs in
order; used by frontend to load content in controlled batches
Frontend (KnowledgeView):
- Fetch 100 IDs upfront, load first 50 as content on mount
- IntersectionObserver sentinel (root: null) triggers 24-item content
batches as user scrolls
- Proactive ID refill when queue drops below 48 unloaded IDs
- fetchGen counter invalidates stale in-flight responses on filter reset
- IDs claimed before async fetch to prevent double-loading
- sentinelVisible ref drives post-load re-check when content doesn't
push sentinel off screen

All datetime parsing now uses _parse_dt() which adds UTC tzinfo when
none is present, matching the fix already applied in tools.py. This
prevents asyncpg errors when comparing naive datetimes against
TIMESTAMPTZ columns — the root cause of events not appearing in the
calendar view.

Adds pick_num_ctx() which selects the smallest context window tier
(8192, 16384, 32768) that fits the current messages with 25% headroom,
capped at OLLAMA_NUM_CTX. Threads num_ctx through generation_task.py so
every chat request uses the computed tier rather than a fixed 16384.
Fixes a critical cache miss bug: KV cache priming in app.py and
settings.py was sending requests without num_ctx, so Ollama sized the
cache at its model default (different from the 16384 real requests used),
forcing a full model reload on the first real user message. Both priming
sites now call pick_num_ctx() and pass the matching value.

Two bugs:
1. Manual 'Refresh' button didn't refresh weather/RSS before compiling.
The daily scheduler calls refresh_all_feeds + refresh_location_cache
before run_compilation; the manual trigger route called run_compilation
directly, reading a stale cache. Manual trigger now mirrors the
scheduler: refresh feeds and all configured weather locations first.
2. Navigating to WorkspaceView during a long briefing compilation caused
the workspace chat to show the briefing content. triggerNow awaits
~30-60s; on completion it called loadAll() → chatStore.fetchConversation
which overwrote the workspace's currentConversation in the shared store.
Fixed with a _mounted flag — all post-async state writes in BriefingView
are now guarded so they no-op if the component has been unmounted.

Three bugs in discussArticle():
- Scroll selector was '.briefing-chat' (doesn't exist) → '.briefing-center';
the panel never scrolled into view so the response was invisible until refresh
- Only 300-char snippet was sent to the LLM; now passes the full stored
content (up to 2000 chars) from the backend
- User message wasn't shown until streaming ended; now added optimistically
to messages[] immediately on click so it appears straight away

synthesiseSpeech() called without explicit params now omits voice/speed/
blend from the request body. The backend detects this and auto-loads all
three from the user's saved settings (voice_tts_voice, voice_tts_speed,
voice_tts_blend), so briefing listen mode respects the voice the user
configured in Settings.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add voice blend support to TTS pipeline and settings UI. Users can mix
2–5 Kokoro voices with per-voice weight sliders; the blended style tensor
replaces the single voice when enabled. Settings persist as JSON and auto-

- Embed RSS items at fetch time (nomic-embed-text); backfill at startup
- Semantic news search injected into chat system prompt ("Recent News You've Seen")
when items match query above 0.55 cosine threshold (independent of note RAG)
- "Discuss in chat" button on news cards — creates a seeded conversation with
the article title + full content, navigates directly to the new chat
- Briefing compilation now passes 500-char article excerpts (not just headlines)
to the LLM and uses 8192 num_ctx to accommodate the larger prompt

Replaces the freeform briefing-profile note with a DB-backed user_profiles
table. Users can edit job/industry/expertise/response preferences/interests/

Voice enabled/STT model are now DB-backed (admin settings), not env
vars. Added reload_stt_model()/reload_tts_model() that clear singletons
under lock and re-trigger loading. POST /api/admin/voice/reload triggers
both in background tasks. Settings UI polls /api/voice/status every 2.5s
until models are ready, with spinner feedback.

Replace VOICE_ENABLED env var gate with DB-backed admin setting.
- services/voice_config.py: reads voice_enabled + voice_stt_model from
admin user's settings row (falls back to env var defaults)
- routes/admin.py: GET/PUT /api/admin/voice for admin configuration
- routes/voice.py, services/stt.py, services/tts.py: read enabled/model
from DB via voice_config instead of Config directly
- app.py: always schedule model loaders at startup; they self-gate on
the DB setting so no conditional needed at the call site
- SettingsView.vue: Voice section in Admin → Config tab (enable toggle +
STT model dropdown); user Voice tab now points to admin panel when disabled
No env var required to test — enable via Settings → Admin → Config → Voice.
