Summary

Add a per-user account flag that controls whether previous conversations are used as context or for RAG lookup. When enabled, the user gets a more tailored experience based on their chat history.

Requirements

  • Add a boolean flag on the user account (e.g. use_conversation_context / use_history_rag) that enables using previous conversations as context or RAG lookup.
  • Default: off — opt-in only; do not enable for existing or new users unless they turn it on.
  • Expose the toggle in the relevant user/settings API so the frontend can read and update it.
  • When the flag is on, include prior conversation history (or RAG over it) in chat requests so responses can be more personalized.
  • When the flag is off, do not use previous conversations for context/RAG.

UX / frontend notes

  • Toggle should be off by default in the UI.
  • Provide a tooltip that explains: this will use previous conversations to better customize the experience.

Acceptance criteria

  • User model (or related settings) has a boolean field defaulting to false
  • Migration included for the new field
  • API supports getting/updating the flag
  • Chat/RAG path respects the flag (skip history context when off)
  • Documented for frontend: toggle + tooltip copy about using previous conversations to customize the experience
