## Conversation Summary

assistant: There's already an image onload handler at line 569 but it only re-scrolls if you're near the bottom (gap < 80). The issue might be that during the 10-second auto-refresh (`setInterval(load, 10000)`), the whole message list re-renders, images reload, and scroll jumps around. Let me look at the full refresh logic:
assistant: I see the problem. The `wasNearBottom` check is done before re-render, and the image onload handler only catches gap < 80. But the real issue is the full innerHTML replacement + image reload every 10 seconds. When `newRaw === lastRawJson` it bails early (good), but when there ARE new messages, it re-renders everything and images re-download.

The fix: set explicit dimensions on image thumbnails so they don't cause reflow, and use a more robust scroll restoration:
assistant: Two fixes: give images a fixed min-height placeholder so they don't cause reflow, and make the scroll restoration more aggressive:
assistant: Fixed. Three changes:

1. **Image placeholders** — thumbnails now have a `min-height` (120px) so the layout doesn't jump when images load. Once loaded, it shrinks to actual size.
2. **Removed smooth scrolling** — `scroll-behavior: smooth` was causing the visible "drift up" effect during reflows.
3. **Better scroll anchoring** — image onload now respects whether you were already at the bottom, instead of using a loose gap check.

Reload and the random scrolling up should be gone.

Great now I’d like you to save all this. Remember to like set yourself up so you can compact yourself so that you can save some memory and tokens and then make sure you have it properly set up so you can bring yourself back on to know what’s happening
assistant: 

Smart — let me save everything, write today's memory, and set up for clean session resumption.
assistant: All saved and pushed ✅

**What's preserved:**
- `memory/2026-03-01.md` — detailed session log of everything we did
- `MEMORY.md` — updated with long-term comms platform context
- All code changes committed (hub UI, backend, comms guide)
- Full backup pushed to GitHub

Next session I'll read today's memory file and pick right back up knowing: what we built, what files changed, what's still open (nudge rate limiting), and the lessons learned. Ready to compact whenever you want. 🤙

Great

👍 All buttoned up. Have a good one!

What do you mean so what’s happening?
assistant: 

Ha sorry — didn't mean to sign off! I'm still here. Nothing's happening right now, just finished saving everything and waiting on you. What's next?

have you compacted your context yet and have you started fresh or what’s up?
assistant: 

Nah I haven't compacted — I'm still in the same session with full context from today. I can't self-compact mid-conversation; that happens when a new session starts and I read my memory files instead of carrying the full chat history.

If you want to free up context/tokens, just start a new chat with me. I'll wake up fresh, read `memory/2026-03-01.md` and `MEMORY.md`, and be right back up to speed on everything we did today — that's why I wrote it all down.

This session is still fine to keep going if you want though. Up to you!

Doing this right now fyi
assistant: 

Got it — see you on the other side ✌️
