Two reads still grew without bound after the snapshot fix.
`Action.variants` holds every discarded retry attempt, but a list response
only needs how many there are — so each retry permanently added ~5 KB to
every later load of that adventure. Defer the column and keep the count
beside it (migration 37, backfilled server-side), with set_variants() as the
one write path that keeps the two in step.
`story_actions()` walked adventure.actions, then every caller threw almost
all of it away: the builder concatenates the story and immediately cuts it
back to the token budget, the NPC check looks at the last 6, retrieval at the
last 4, the cursor clamp only wants a count. A turn on a 200-action adventure
read 839 KB to use ~70 KB, and grew with every turn played. app/context/
history.py serves those shapes from SQL; window_covering() measures the
actions it fetched and projects how many more it needs, fetching only the
part it does not already hold. Memorybank cursors move to position_of_index()
and settled_count()/settled_slice() — same arithmetic, no full list.
The scripting pipeline still receives the whole history per AI Dungeon's API,
and every helper reuses adventure.actions when it is already loaded, so a
scripted adventure pays what it always did and never twice.
Measured at production shape: retry tax 5.1 KB -> 0; turn 200 839 KB -> 129 KB
and flat from ~turn 50; a 200-turn playthrough 84.5 MB -> 23.0 MB; a delete
115 KB -> 5 KB.
Verified the window builds a byte-identical prompt to the full story across
budgets from 1K to 100K tokens, with and without the retry exclusion - this
is a cost change and nothing else. Cursor helpers checked against the old list
arithmetic, including after deleting a middle action. Counts are real
SELECT count(...): Query.count() wraps the entity select in a subquery, so the
SQL named every deferred column and the egress guard could not tell it apart
from a bulk fetch. 139 tests pass; the four new guards verified by sabotage.

Three fallout bugs from keeping the retried action row alive (906ba42),
plus two long-standing cursor bugs the same investigation turned up.
Retry context leak: the row being regenerated is still attached to the
adventure, so it was replayed as established story and the model wrote a
continuation of the attempt it was meant to replace — the story visibly
blended both takes. It leaked into four places, not one: history replay,
story-card trigger matching, in-scene NPC detection, and the memory-bank
similarity query. Adds a shared context.story_actions(exclude_action_id),
threaded through build_context and retrieve_memories.
Memory holdback: a memory could summarize the just-generated turn; retry
rewrites Action.text but memory_cursor has already advanced, so the memory
was never regenerated and went on describing narration no longer in the
story. settled_story_actions() holds the newest action back one turn —
only the last action is retryable, so that makes it unreachable. The
settled list is always a prefix, so cursors stay valid and nothing is
skipped. The run_post_turn clamp deliberately still uses the full count:
clamping to settled rewinds legacy adventures a step and double-covers an
action.
Cursor bookkeeping: memory_cursor is a position into story_actions() while
Memory.source_* are Action.index values, and the two diverge as soon as
anything is deleted. Deleting a middle action slid a never-summarized
action into the covered range, skipping it forever; and pruning a memory
left the actions it covered stranded behind the cursor. Adds
note_action_removed() (called before the delete in delete_action and
undo_turn) and a rewind in prune_dangling_memories. delete_action also
now prunes at all, which it never did.
Not addressed: editing an already-summarized action still leaves its
memory stale, and the cumulative story summary can't have one fact
un-mixed from it.
117 backend tests pass, including new test_memory_settling.py (12) and
two retry-context regression tests.

AI Chat is a plain scratchpad for talking to a model directly — no story
context, scripts or world state — for poking at models, prompts and endpoints
without starting an adventure. Power users only: the router 404s (rather than
403s) for everyone else and the nav link is hidden. The conversation lives in
localStorage, so there's no new table or migration.
is_power_user() now also returns True in local mode: it's the operator's own
machine and their own key, the same reasoning that makes the provider debug log
local-only.
Alongside that, the rule keeping the shared demo key off paid models now lives
in exactly one place. It had been duplicated into the chat router, which is how
one copy eventually drifts:
- resolve_provider_config() takes an optional model_override and is the only
place the whitelist is applied, so turns, AI Chat and the connection test all
inherit it. An override is a per-request preference, never a grant.
- ProviderConfig.__post_init__ refuses to exist when api_key is the demo key
and the model isn't whitelisted. It keys on the key itself rather than the
using_demo flag, so a mislabelled config can't slip past, and it raises so a
future path that bypasses the resolver fails loudly instead of billing.
- The demo branch still pins endpoint_url too — a user-controlled endpoint
would leak the key itself, which is worse than spending it.
Provider gained chat(messages, ...) beside generate(), both delegating to a
shared _stream(url, body); completion-mode endpoints get the messages flattened
into a labelled transcript. Settings' /models fetch moved to
list_endpoint_models() and is shared with /api/chat/config.
Tests: 10 new in tests/test_chat.py (70 total). These deliberately do not stub
resolve_provider_config — the point is to exercise the real BYOK-vs-demo
decision and assert on what the provider actually received: off-whitelist
override pinned, off-whitelist Settings.model pinned, redirected endpoint
pinned, BYOK passed through untouched.

The shared per-adventure script_state ("scoreboard" scripts write to) was
never reverted by undo, and retry re-ran the output hook on top of the already-
mutated state, double-applying its changes (e.g. "+10 gold" became +20).
Each action now snapshots script_state as it was immediately before its own
hooks ran (new Action.state_before column, migration 25):
- undo restores the turn's first-action snapshot, prunes memories that
summarized the removed actions, and takes the turn lock against races.
- retry restores the AI action's snapshot before regenerating.
Story-card mutations are not reverted (documented limit). Adds the project's
first test suite: unit + full HTTP integration through the real scripting
engine (14 tests). See plan/11-state-revert-and-retry-fix.md.

Guest-first multi-user mode behind AIDND_MULTI_USER (local installs
unchanged): signed-cookie guest sessions bootstrapped by /api/auth/me,
register upgrades the guest in place, login/logout, per-IP rate limits.
Every router scoped by user_id; Settings become per-user with the API
key Fernet-encrypted at rest and write-only through the API. Users
without a key get a server-funded demo key (OpenRouter free models,
20 turns/day, memory bank disabled on demo turns). Public read-only
demo scenarios (seed_demo.py); debug log restricted to local mode.
Frontend: auth modal + guest nudge, 401 re-establish/retry, demo
banner and key management in Settings.
Migrations 13-23 adopt existing data under a local user and encrypt
stored keys. Verified: migration on a copy of real data.db, two-session
isolation + register/login via curl and Chrome, demo cap 429, live
OpenRouter turn through the encrypted-key path, vite build + oxlint.

Backend:
- provider: fall back to parsing a plain JSON body when a server ignores
stream=true (was: silent empty turn); error if response has no text (#5)
- memorybank: clamp cursors after undo/retry shrinks the action list, and
translate summary_cursor (list position) to an Action.index boundary
before comparing with Memory.source_end (#7)
- memorybank: pinned memories now count toward the top_k budget (#8)
- memorybank: cosine() returns 0.0 on dimension mismatch; changing the
embedding model clears stored vectors so they re-embed (#9)
- scripting: MAX_STORY_CARDS cap now counts cards inserted during the
hook, so a script can't add unbounded cards in one turn (#10)
- settings: /test tolerates non-dict JSON from /models (#13)
- scenarios: import accepts worldInformation as a story-card source (#14)
Frontend:
- per-key debounce timers in PlotPanel and ScenarioEditor — editing two
things within 600ms no longer drops the first save (#15, #16)
- Continue button no longer discards typed input (#17)
- failed retry resyncs actions from the server instead of leaving the
removed action missing (#18)
- Settings save/test surface errors instead of hanging on Testing… (#19)
- InsightsPanel ignores stale responses from superseded requests (#20)
- placeholder scan includes story-card trigger keys (#21)
addStoryCard returning the 0-based index (falsy for the first card) matches
real AI Dungeon per the scripting guidebook — kept, documented (#11).
Statuses updated in CODE_REVIEW_FINDINGS.md; stale entries for previously
fixed items (#1-4, #6, #12) corrected.
