Conversation
Found three locations where saveConversation() was updating timestamps during conversation loads, causing list to reorder: 1. ✅ saveConversation() itself - added updateTimestamp parameter (PR #23) 2. ✅ handleLoadConversation() - now uses updateTimestamp: false 3. ✅ Auto-save effect - now uses updateTimestamp: false The auto-save effect was triggering when currentConversationId changed during load. Even with isLoadingConversationRef flag, the effect would run and update the timestamp. Solution: - Auto-save effect now uses updateTimestamp: false to prevent timestamp updates when just preserving state - Explicit timestamp update added in onComplete callback when user sends new messages (the only time we actually want to update the timestamp) This ensures conversations only move to top when users send new messages, not when just selecting from history. Fixes persistent sorting issue confirmed by user.
The root cause was the auto-save effect depending on currentConversationId. When loading a conversation, setCurrentConversationId() would trigger the effect, causing an unwanted save that updated the timestamp. Changes: 1. Removed currentConversationId from effect dependencies 2. Removed "|| currentConversationId" from the if condition (only save when there are messages) 3. Added explicit saveConversation(conversation, true) in onComplete callback to update timestamp when user sends messages 4. Updated comments to explain why currentConversationId is not in dependencies This ensures the effect only runs when actual content (messages, files, aiTheme) changes, not when just switching conversations. Fixes the persistent sorting issue where conversations jump to top when selected.
