Adds a third input mode toggle alongside Note and Agent. When active:
- Textarea gets a subtle purple tint with dashed border
- OTR button highlights purple
- Placeholder reads "Off the record — not logged or distilled…"
- off_record=True is sent to /chat; session_logger is skipped
- In-memory session context is preserved within the session
Switching to Note or Agent mode deactivates OTR, and vice versa.

- Session name field: PATCH /sessions/{id} endpoint, inline rename button in UI
- Persona rename: inline ✏ toggle form in settings, POST /settings/persona/rename
- Username rename: inline form in settings, POST /settings/username (renames home dir, forces re-login)
- Help page: dedicated /help route replacing modal, collapsible sections
- Per-persona isolation: files.py and session_store.py now scope to correct user/persona
- Contrast/visibility: muted text bumped to slate-400+, session rename btn at 0.4 opacity

- session_store: store sessions under home/{user}/persona/{name}/session_data/
instead of the shared cortex/data/sessions/ bucket
- chat endpoints: add user/persona query params to /sessions, /history/*,
/sessions/*, /note so they resolve the correct persona context
- files router: add user/persona query params to /files and /files/{name}
so the file browser loads the right persona's files
- app.js: pass user/persona on all session, history, and file fetches;
move _fileParams to top-level scope so it is available everywhere
- onboarding: fix FastAPI route ordering — register /persona before /{token}
so the literal path wins and does not get captured as a token value
- ui.py: read Emoji field from IDENTITY.md and inject into CORTEX_CONFIG
so the header icon reflects each persona's chosen emoji
- .gitignore: exclude home/**/session_data/ (runtime state)
- migrate scott/inara sessions from cortex/data/sessions/ to session_data/

Restructures persona storage from a flat personas/{name}/ layout to
home/{username}/persona/{name}/, mirroring Linux home directories.
Changes:
- persona.py: two ContextVars (user + persona), Linux-style name validation,
set_context(), get_user(), get_persona(), validate(), list_users(),
list_user_personas(); persona_path() takes (username, name)
- config.py: replaces personas_dir with home_dir + home_root()
- git mv personas/inara → home/scott/persona/inara (history preserved)
- home/holly/persona/tina/: Holly's persona stub added
- cron_runner.py: all storage functions take (username, persona) params
- tools/cron.py: stamps user + persona on jobs; APScheduler IDs are
{user}:{persona}:{job_id} to prevent collisions across users
- memory_distiller.py: distill_short/mid/long take (username, persona);
added missing Path + settings imports
- scheduler.py: _load_user_crons() iterates home/*/persona/* (two-level)
- routers/chat.py, orchestrator.py: user field added; set_context() called
- tests/conftest.py: home_root fixture with two-level structure;
patches home_dir instead of personas_dir
- tests/test_persona.py: fully rewritten for two-level API
- tests/test_api_files.py: updated fixture name and path
- .env.default: documents HOME_DIR setting; scrubs stale API key
- CLAUDE.md, README.md: directory maps updated for new layout
All 80 tests pass.

- Add cortex/persona.py: ContextVar-based per-request routing with
path traversal protection and persona validation
- Migrate inara/ → personas/inara/ (git history preserved via git mv)
- config.py: add personas_root(), inara_path() delegates to personas/inara
- All 14 settings.inara_path() call sites replaced with persona_path()
- ChatRequest + OrchestrateRequest: add persona field (default: "inara")
with validation at request entry before any processing
- memory_distiller: add optional persona param for future per-persona distill
- cron_runner/tools/cron: stamp persona on jobs, prefix APScheduler IDs
(persona:job_id) to prevent collisions across personas
- scheduler: _load_user_crons() iterates all personas at startup
Adding a new persona: create personas/<name>/ with IDENTITY.md + SOUL.md.
Auth: handled at nginx level (inject X-Cortex-Persona header per subdomain).
Future: persona maps to Aether account_id_random for full integration.

Session delete:
- DELETE /sessions/{session_id} endpoint (chat.py + session_store.py)
- × button on each session item in the panel (hover-reveal on desktop)
- Clears UI if the active session is deleted
Touch accessibility:
- @media (hover: none) rule makes msg-actions always visible on touch devices
- msg-act-btn tap targets enlarged to 36px min-height, readable font size
- session-delete-btn also always visible and finger-sized on touch

- Edit/delete individual messages from session context with inline editing
(Ctrl+Enter saves, Escape cancels); changes sync to backend via PUT /history
- PUT /history/{session_id} endpoint to replace full message list
- Named sessions: readable slugs (e.g. quiet-spring) instead of UUID fragments
- Scroll no longer snaps to bottom when user has scrolled up to read history
- cortex.service: systemd unit for auto-start and restart-on-failure

Cortex: FastAPI backend serving Inara via Claude/Gemini CLI backends.
Includes SSE streaming chat, session persistence, Google Chat webhook
handler, and Docker support.
Inara: Identity files (persona, soul, protocols, memory, context tiers)
mounted read-only into the container at runtime.
Features in initial cut:
- /chat endpoint with SSE keepalive + LLM fallback
- Session store with rolling history window
- Markdown rendering, copy-to-clipboard, links open in new tab
- Stacked right-column input controls (height selector, enter toggle,
note mode with public/private) — semi-hidden until textarea grows
- /note endpoint for injecting public context into session history
- Docker Compose config (local dev runs natively; Docker for server)
