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.

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.
