api_reset_chat.py DOX

Purpose

• Own the api_reset_chat.py API endpoint.
• This module resets an API-created chat context.
• Keep this file-level DOX profile synchronized with api_reset_chat.py because this directory is intentionally flat.

Ownership

• api_reset_chat.py owns the runtime implementation.
• api_reset_chat.py.dox.md owns durable notes about responsibilities, contracts, side effects, and verification for that implementation.
• Classes:
• ApiResetChat (ApiHandler)
  • requires_auth(cls) -> bool
  • requires_csrf(cls) -> bool
  • requires_api_key(cls) -> bool
  • get_methods(cls) -> list[str]
  • async process(self, input: dict, request: Request) -> dict | Response

Runtime Contracts

• HTTP handlers must derive from helpers.api.ApiHandler; WebSocket handlers must derive from helpers.ws.WsHandler.
• Update this file whenever request payloads, authentication or CSRF requirements, response shapes, route side effects, or WebSocket event contracts change.
• ApiResetChat is an ApiHandler.
• ApiResetChat defines process(...).
• ApiResetChat defines get_methods(...).
• ApiResetChat defines requires_auth(...).
• ApiResetChat defines requires_csrf(...).
• ApiResetChat defines requires_api_key(...).
• Observed side-effect areas: filesystem writes, filesystem deletion, settings/state persistence.
• Imported dependency areas include: agent, helpers, helpers.api, helpers.print_style, json.

Key Concepts

• Important called helpers/classes observed in the source: AgentContext.use, context.reset, persist_chat.save_tmp_chat, persist_chat.remove_msg_files, Response, PrintStyle.error, PrintStyle, json.dumps.
• Keep request/response, tool, or helper semantics documented here at the same time as source changes.

Work Guidance

• Preserve authentication, CSRF, loopback, and API-key checks unless the endpoint contract explicitly changes.
• Update frontend callers, plugin callers, and tests together when payload shape changes.
• Use helpers.api.Response for non-JSON responses, files, redirects, or status-specific replies.

Verification

• Run endpoint-specific or API/WebSocket tests for changed behavior; smoke-test browser callers when no focused test exists.
• No direct test reference was found by name search; choose the nearest behavioral test or perform a focused smoke check.
