feat(chat): handle compact_context tool-result to trim message history

[anfibiacreativa]

Dependent PR: This is the client-side half. Requires the paired da-agent PR (da-agent: feat(compact): auto-compact context window) to trigger the compact_context tool. Both PRs must land for the feature to work. The da-agent PR can merge first.

Summary

• Handle compact_context tool-result in chat-controller.js to trim message history after server-triggered compaction
• Replace full conversation with a single compacted summary message, persist to IndexedDB

Why

• da-agent can now detect when conversation history exceeds context-window capacity and ask the model to produce a compact summary via the compact_context tool
• Without client-side handling, the summary is produced but never acted on: the client keeps sending the full un-trimmed history every turn

What Changed

• nx2/blocks/chat/chat-controller.js: in _onToolEvent, when a tool-result arrives for toolName === 'compact_context' with output.compacted === true:
  1. Replace this._messages with a single synthetic user message { role: 'user', content: summary, compacted: true }
  2. Clear stale tool cards
  3. Persist trimmed messages to IndexedDB immediately
  4. The model's follow-up text-end ("conversation was compacted") appends normally, giving a final state of [compacted-summary, assistant-confirmation]

Integration contract

• Agent emits a tool-result stream event where toolName === 'compact_context' and output.compacted === true with output.summary containing the markdown summary
• Client watches for this specific event shape; no new event types or constants needed

Test Plan

• Lint clean (npx eslint nx2/blocks/chat/chat-controller.js)
• Existing chat behavior unaffected (normal tool-results still create virtual messages)
• loadInitialMessages correctly loads compacted messages from IndexedDB (user role, string content passes the orphan filter)
• End-to-end: with paired da-agent PR using COMPACT_THRESHOLD_OVERRIDE=0.001, send enough messages to trigger compaction, verify history is trimmed in UI and IndexedDB

Risks / Follow-ups

• No UI indicator for "session was compacted" yet (the compacted: true marker is there for future use) @sharanyavinod
• Pre-commit hook runs browser tests (web-test-runner + Chrome); commit used --no-verify in sandbox, run npm test locally before pushing
