Otto 649d4ab7f5 feat(chat): Add delete chat session endpoint and UI (#12112)
## Summary

Adds the ability to delete chat sessions from the CoPilot interface.

## Changes

### Backend
- Add `DELETE /api/chat/sessions/{session_id}` endpoint in `routes.py`
- Returns 204 on success, 404 if not found or not owned by user
- Reuses existing `delete_chat_session` function from `model.py`

### Frontend
- Add delete button (trash icon) that appears on hover for each chat
session
- Add confirmation dialog before deletion using existing
`DeleteConfirmDialog` component
- Refresh session list after successful delete
- Clear current session selection if the deleted session was active
- Update OpenAPI spec with new endpoint

## Testing

1. Hover over a chat session in sidebar → trash icon appears
2. Click trash icon → confirmation dialog
3. Confirm deletion → session removed, list refreshes
4. If deleted session was active, selection is cleared

## Screenshots

Delete button appears on hover, confirmation dialog on click.

Closes SECRT-1928

<h2>Greptile Overview</h2>

<details><summary><h3>Greptile Summary</h3></summary>

Adds the ability to delete chat sessions from the CoPilot interface — a
new `DELETE /api/chat/sessions/{session_id}` backend endpoint and a
corresponding delete button with confirmation dialog in the
`ChatSidebar` frontend component.

- **Backend route** (`routes.py`): Clean implementation reusing the
existing `delete_chat_session` model function with proper auth guards
and 204/404 responses. No issues.
- **Frontend** (`ChatSidebar.tsx`): Adds hover-visible trash icon per
session, confirmation dialog, mutation with cache invalidation, and
active session clearing on delete. However, it uses a `__legacy__`
component (`DeleteConfirmDialog`) which violates the project's style
guide — new code should use the modern design system components. Error
handling only logs to console without user-facing feedback (project
convention is to use toast notifications for mutation errors).
`isDeleting` is destructured but unused.
- **OpenAPI spec** updated correctly.
- **Unrelated file included**:
`notes/plan-SECRT-1959-graph-edge-desync.md` is a planning document for
a different ticket and should be removed from this PR. The `notes/`
directory is newly introduced and both plan files should be reconsidered
for inclusion.
</details>


<details><summary><h3>Confidence Score: 3/5</h3></summary>

- Functionally correct but has style guide violations and includes
unrelated files that should be addressed before merge.
- The core feature implementation (backend DELETE endpoint and frontend
mutation logic) is sound and follows existing patterns. Score is lowered
because: (1) the frontend uses a legacy component explicitly prohibited
by the project's style guide, (2) mutation errors are not surfaced to
the user, and (3) the PR includes an unrelated planning document for a
different ticket.
- Pay close attention to `ChatSidebar.tsx` for the legacy component
import and error handling, and
`notes/plan-SECRT-1959-graph-edge-desync.md` which should be removed.

This is the frontend for AutoGPT's next generation

🧢 Getting Started

This project uses pnpm as the package manager via corepack. Corepack is a Node.js tool that automatically manages package managers without requiring global installations.

For architecture, conventions, data fetching, feature flags, design system usage, state management, and PR process, see CONTRIBUTING.md. For Playwright and Storybook testing setup, see TESTING.md.

Prerequisites

Make sure you have Node.js 16.10+ installed. Corepack is included with Node.js by default.

Setup

1. Enable corepack (run this once on your system):

corepack enable

This enables corepack to automatically manage pnpm based on the packageManager field in package.json.

2. Install dependencies:

pnpm i

3. Start the development server:

Running the Front-end & Back-end separately

We recommend this approach if you are doing active development on the project. First spin up the Back-end:

# on `autogpt_platform`
docker compose --profile local up deps_backend -d
# on `autogpt_platform/backend`
poetry run app

Then start the Front-end:

# on `autogpt_platform/frontend`
pnpm dev

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result. If the server starts on http://localhost:3001 it means the Front-end is already running via Docker. You have to kill the container then or do docker compose down.

You can start editing the page by modifying app/page.tsx. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.

Running both the Front-end and Back-end via Docker

If you run:

# on `autogpt_platform`
docker compose up -d

It will spin up the Back-end and Front-end via Docker. The Front-end will start on port 3000. This might not be what you want when actively contributing to the Front-end as you won't have direct/easy access to the Next.js dev server.

Subsequent Runs

For subsequent development sessions, you only need to run:

pnpm dev

Every time a new Front-end dependency is added by you or others, you will need to run pnpm i to install the new dependencies.

Available Scripts

  • pnpm dev - Start development server
  • pnpm build - Build for production
  • pnpm start - Start production server
  • pnpm lint - Run ESLint and Prettier checks
  • pnpm format - Format code with Prettier
  • pnpm types - Run TypeScript type checking
  • pnpm test - Run Playwright tests
  • pnpm test-ui - Run Playwright tests with UI
  • pnpm fetch:openapi - Fetch OpenAPI spec from backend
  • pnpm generate:api-client - Generate API client from OpenAPI spec
  • pnpm generate:api - Fetch OpenAPI spec and generate API client

This project uses next/font to automatically optimize and load Inter, a custom Google Font.

🔄 Data Fetching

See CONTRIBUTING.md for guidance on generated API hooks, SSR + hydration patterns, and usage examples. You generally do not need to run OpenAPI commands unless adding/modifying backend endpoints.

🚩 Feature Flags

See CONTRIBUTING.md for feature flag usage patterns, local development with mocks, and how to add new flags.

TODO

📙 Storybook

Storybook is a powerful development environment for UI components. It allows you to build UI components in isolation, making it easier to develop, test, and document your components independently from your main application.

Purpose in the Development Process

  1. Component Development: Develop and test UI components in isolation.
  2. Visual Testing: Easily spot visual regressions.
  3. Documentation: Automatically document components and their props.
  4. Collaboration: Share components with your team or stakeholders for feedback.

How to Use Storybook

  1. Start Storybook: Run the following command to start the Storybook development server:

    pnpm storybook
    

    This will start Storybook on port 6006. Open http://localhost:6006 in your browser to view your component library.

  2. Build Storybook: To build a static version of Storybook for deployment, use:

    pnpm build-storybook
    
  3. Running Storybook Tests: Storybook tests can be run using:

    pnpm test-storybook
    
  4. Writing Stories: Create .stories.tsx files alongside your components to define different states and variations of your components.

By integrating Storybook into our development workflow, we can streamline UI development, improve component reusability, and maintain a consistent design system across the project.
