Borrowed from the Tinfoil chat layout, keeping our own palette:
- The empty state leads with a title and a single status pill instead of an
oversized icon plus two paragraphs, so the composer is what the eye lands on.
- Example prompts are raised pill buttons rather than flat outlines.
- A faint graph-paper ground behind the transcript makes the composer read as a
lifted surface; it switches off as soon as there are messages, where it would
fight the text.
- New chat carries its Ctrl+Shift+O shortcut on the right, and the shortcut now
actually works — scoped to the assistant workspace so it does not hijack the
key elsewhere in the app.
- Saved Chats is a collapsible group with a chevron, remembered per browser.

The rail's Workspace section was a collapsible extra sitting under the chats.
It is now the second of two modes, selected by a segmented switch at the top of
the rail:
- Assistant keeps the chat column, the saved-chat list, New chat and Create image.
- Workspace REPLACES the chat column and the Sources panel with the app's own
menu — a card grid in the main column and the same list in the rail — so
nothing from the assistant is left half-visible beside it.
Both the rail list and the cards are built from the app's real .tab-btn
elements, so a tab added, renamed or hidden in index.html follows automatically.
Learning Hub moved down from second place to sit immediately before Content
Manager, with the other content tools rather than above the clinical ones.
Also removed dead CSS for .assistant-view-switch, .assistant-learning-view and
#assistant-learning-root: that markup no longer exists anywhere in the app.

Multimodal removal
The multimodal path called nc_multimodal_search against a second hardcoded
collection whose embedding service (multimodal-embeddings:7999) was never
deployed and ENABLE_MULTIMODAL_RAG has always been false, so it only ever logged
"multimodal search skipped". Removed rather than left as dead weight:
- clinicalRetrieval: normalizeMcpMultimodalResponse, isVisualSourceQuery,
isRadiologyQuery, buildMultimodalSearchQuery, classifyAndRerankMultimodalResults,
selectMultimodalResults, visualIntent, visualMetadataScore,
shouldRejectVisualSource, allowsFrontMatterQuery, looksLikeFrontMatterPage,
looksLikeTextOnlyPage and MULTIMODAL_CANDIDATE_LIMIT (~140 lines).
- clinicalMcpClient: multimodalSearch.
- The route's visual/text slot split is gone; the whole search limit is text.
- The "[visual PDF page match]" prompt label and the "visual PDF page" source
badge are gone with it.
Adding models
Model availability could only be ticked from what the gateway advertised, so an
admin could never offer a model discovery did not list. Each list now has a text
field: a typed id joins the same checkbox list, is enabled by default, is
de-duplicated, and persists through the normal allowed_models save.

New setting clinical_assistant.citations_enabled (default true, admin checkbox).
With it off, retrieval, grounding and every other rule are unchanged — answers
are still built only from retrieved sources — but:
- buildSystemPrompt swaps only the citation block: the "cite factual claims with
[1]" rules are replaced with "do not include citations, source numbers or
bracketed markers", and the note that the sourcing requirement itself is
unchanged. Grounding, scope, table formatting and tone rules are byte-identical
between the two modes.
- The server strips any stray [n] the model emits anyway, from the stored answer
rather than only the view, so saved chats and exports match what was shown.
- No sources are sent to the client at all, and the status endpoint reports the
mode so the UI hides the Sources panel and gives its 330px column back to the
chat instead of showing an empty rail.
Validated as a boolean in adminConfig, like the feature.* keys.

Mobile
body.assistant-workspace .assistant-layout is both later in the file and more
specific than the .assistant-layout rule inside @media (max-width:640px), so
phones were inheriting height: calc(100vh - 64px) — an offset for the app header
that workspace mode already hides — plus grid rules on a flex container. The
topbar then overlapped the content. Added a matching-specificity mobile override
restoring 100dvh and the flex layout.
Workspace menu in the rail
The saved-chats rail gains a collapsible Workspace section listing the app's own
tabs, so the assistant sidebar carries both its chats and the workspace
navigation. It is built from the real .tab-btn elements rather than a second copy
of the menu, so tabs added, renamed or hidden in index.html follow automatically
and admin-only tabs stay hidden.
Prompt
Rewritten as principles instead of an enumerated rulebook: "respond to the user's
latest message, not to an earlier one", "if it carries no question, ask what they
would like you to look up", "never repeat a previous answer", and for the tool
"use it when the latest message asks for a picture, or for a change to one you
just made, and not otherwise". No example words in any language remain — the
model reads the message as written. 1032 -> 788 characters.

.assistant-layout.history-collapsed set display:none on .assistant-history, which
removes it from grid flow. The layout still declared three tracks
(0 / minmax(0,1fr) / 330px), so the two remaining items shifted left: .assistant-main
took the 0 track and #assistant-sources took the 1fr. Collapsing the sidebar made
the chat vanish and rendered the citations in its place. The rail is now a
zero-width, visibility:hidden grid item, so the columns stay where they belong.
Also: inside the assistant workspace the topbar no longer repeats "AI Clinical
Assistant" — the page is the assistant. It stays in the DOM, visually hidden, so
screen readers still announce it.

The previous fix put a hand-maintained multilingual word list in the route. That
does not generalise — the bug report itself was "Окей", and the next one would be
a language not on the list. The model already has the tool, the system prompt and
the whole conversation, so the policy belongs where it reads it.
Removed from src/routes/clinicalAssistant.js:
- GREETING_RE and its short-circuit (an ASCII keyword list that decided, before
the model ever saw the message, that a greeting deserved a canned reply).
- The IMAGE_NOUN / IMAGE_REPEAT vocabulary lists and the answer-repetition
backstop added earlier today.
Moved into the prompt and the tool definition:
- DEFAULT_BEHAVIOR now says that a greeting, acknowledgement or thanks in ANY
language gets a one-sentence request for a clinical question, and that a
previous turn's answer must never be repeated to justify a second image.
- The generate_image description says to call it ONLY when the user's latest
message asks for a picture or a change to one just made, and that an
acknowledgement of an existing image is not such a request.
Both are admin-editable (clinical_assistant.system_behavior), so this can now be
tuned without a deploy.
dispatchImageRequestFallback and IMAGE_REQUEST_PATTERN stay: that is the
compatibility path for a serving model that writes the image prompt as text
instead of calling the tool. It reads the USER's message only, never the model's
answer, so it cannot replay a previous turn — it was not the cause of this bug.
The DEFAULT_BEHAVIOR byte-hash lock in prompt-administration.test.js is updated
deliberately, which is what that guard is for.

Saved chats
Grouped the way Open WebUI groups them: Pinned, Today, Yesterday, Previous 3
days, Previous 7 days, Previous 30 days, then calendar months (with the year
once it is not the current one). Chats with no usable timestamp land in Undated
rather than disappearing.
Sidebar toggle
The collapse button used <i class="fas fa-sidebar">, which is a Font Awesome PRO
icon; on the Free 6.5.0 build this app loads it rendered nothing, so the toggle
has been an invisible button since it shipped. It now uses fa-table-columns,
keeps aria-expanded/aria-controls in sync, flips its label between "Hide saved
chats" and "Show saved chats" so the collapsed state is escapable, and animates.
Acknowledgements
"Окей", "Nice", "Perfect", "gracias" and friends now get the existing
"What clinical question would you like me to look up?" reply instead of a
retrieval and a paid generation. "yes", "sure", "no" and "more" are deliberately
excluded: answers end by offering more detail, so those must still be answered.

Translation formatting
LibreTranslate's text mode destroys markdown syntax. Verified against the live
container: table pipes come back as "←", the |---| delimiter row is translated
as prose ("Silencio."), and "**bold**" returns as "** bold**" which no longer
renders. Its html mode leaves tags — and bare [n] markers — completely intact.
Messages and the patient take home are now rendered to HTML, simplified (maths
and UI chrome flattened to text), and translated as HTML. Citation chips are
re-linked from the returned markers afterwards, which is the step the original
html path was missing. A text-mode fallback remains for builds that reject html.
Repeat image generation
Typing "Окей" or "Nice" after an image turn produced another image every time:
the model saw its own "I'll generate an educational image…" in the history and
repeated it. Recognising acknowledgements in every language is not possible, so
the rule is inverted — a short follow-up (<=3 words) that mentions nothing about
a picture does not get the image tool offered at all when the previous assistant
turn produced an image. Terse repeat requests ("again", "ещё", "another one")
still work. The worst case is that a terse question is answered in text.
In-chat images
Generated images render as a 320x240 thumbnail instead of filling the bubble,
and the image itself opens the full-resolution preview.

Translation
- Stop scrubbing markdown before sending it to LibreTranslate. The scrub
deleted ordered-list numbering ("1. Give amoxicillin" -> "Give amoxicillin"),
flattened tables into ambiguous whitespace and ate underscores inside
identifiers. Raw markdown now goes to the translator unchanged.
- Render the translation through the same markdown pipeline as the original
bubble, with the message's own sources, so [n] markers come back as the usual
clickable .assistant-cite chips instead of escaped literal text. Headings,
lists and tables survive with them.
- When the translator drops citation markers, surface the affected sources in a
recovery block rather than letting the evidence disappear.
- Image cards are live nodes: they are now re-attached on every path out of a
translation (success, failure and Show original), so a failed translation no
longer silently removes a generating image from the message.
Patient take home
- Add a language selector to the take-home modal, reusing the existing
/translate endpoint and offering only what the local LibreTranslate reports.
- Copy, Export and Email carry what the caregiver is actually reading; the
original stays canonical behind "Original".
Conversation budget
- The admin field no longer prefills with the environment value, which turned
the next Save into an accidental override and made the documented "leave
empty to use the environment" path unreachable. The effective limit is shown
as a placeholder instead.
- Report source 'default' honestly instead of naming an unset env var.
- The load-failure notice now lands on the <p> instead of an <input>'s
textContent, where it rendered nothing.
- One validator for the budget everywhere: conversationLimit() replaces a
parseInt that accepted "120000abc".
Other
- /assistant is addressed by its URL, not by ped_last_tab, so "/" no longer
reopens the assistant; the URL follows tab changes and Back leaves it.
- Remove the dead DeepL path (it referenced an undefined DEEPL_BASES) and stop
offering admins a provider the server silently ignores.
