fix: allow manual chat compaction from the error state (#28022)
A chat that fails generation with a context overflow (for example `Input
length 262625 exceeds the maximum allowed input length of 262112
tokens`) is stuck in a catch-22: `POST /chats/{id}/compact` returns 409
because the `RequestCompaction` transition is only allowed from the
waiting state, and the only other way out of the error state is sending
or editing a message, which re-runs generation with the same oversized
prompt and fails again. Compaction is exactly the recovery a
context-overflowed chat needs, and it is unreachable exactly when it is
needed.
Three semantic changes:
- Allow `RequestCompaction` from the error states: `E0 -> R0` and `E1 ->
R1` (queued messages are preserved and processed after the compaction
turn).
- Clear `last_error` in `Tx.RequestCompaction`, matching the
architecture rule that transitions leaving `E0`/`E1` clear the stored
error. Without this a successful compaction would land in waiting with a
stale persisted error.
- Grant the compaction turn a fresh history epoch: a
`grant_history_epoch` flag on `UpdateChatExecutionState` sets
`history_version = snapshot_version`, resets `generation_attempt`, and
clears `retry_state` in the same atomic update that clears `last_error`
(mirroring the `chat_messages` trigger postcondition). The transition
inserts no history, so without this the turn inherits the failed turn's
spent retry budget, and resetting the counter alone could collide with
message part episode keys still retained on the erroring replica.
No frontend change is required: the chat input is already enabled in the
error state and `/compact` submission already handles both the success
and 409 paths. Also updates ARCHITECTURE.md (transition matrix,
endpoint, and manual compaction sections), the endpoint's swagger
description, and SDK comments.

feat: add manual chat compaction via /compact (#27081)
Adds a user-triggered `/compact` action for Coder Agents chats: typing
`/compact` in the composer (or picking it from the `/` trigger menu)
summarizes the conversation so far to free up context window space.
## How it works
- New `POST /api/experimental/chats/{chat}/compact` endpoint
(owner-only, RBAC `ActionUpdate`, excluded from the public API reference
via `x-apidocgen skip`). It marks the chat with a durable one-shot
`chats.compaction_requested_at` signal and moves it `waiting -> running`
via a new `RequestCompaction` state transition; no message row is
inserted. AI Gateway attribution needs no per-request key: generation
preparation resolves the owner's synthetic API key (#27170) like any
other turn.
- `RequestCompaction` hands off chat ownership (clears
`worker_id`/`runner_id`) so a worker acquisition hint is published;
since the transition changes no history, the previous runner could
otherwise miss the request under reordered pubsub delivery.
- The background chat worker picks the chat up like any other turn. A
pending manual request takes precedence over turn completion in the
generation decision, and forces compaction even below the automatic
threshold (and when compaction is disabled via threshold=100). The
commit step consumes the request marker in the same transaction; any
transition that ends the turn clears stale markers.
- The summary triplet reuses the automatic-compaction path, now tagged
with a `source` (`automatic` | `manual`) that is plumbed through
streamed progress parts, persisted tool JSON, and the UI label
("Summarized (manual)").
- Validation order: busy chats reject with 409 (state-machine conflict),
empty/already-compacted chats with 409 "nothing to compact", archived
chats with 400; the owner usage-limit check runs last so no-op requests
surface the specific conflict instead of a limit error.
- Web UI: the `/` trigger menu now has a built-in "Commands" group
listing `/compact`; submit intercepts exactly `/compact` and calls the
endpoint instead of sending a message. A personal or workspace skill
named `compact` takes precedence over the built-in command; while skill
collisions are still resolving, an exact `/compact` submission is
blocked with a retryable hint instead of leaking as message text.
History and queued-message edits are never intercepted. After
compaction, the context usage indicator resets to its unknown state
until the next assistant response reports fresh usage, instead of
showing the stale pre-compaction number.
- codersdk: `ExperimentalClient.CompactChat`.
Worker-path execution (rather than compacting synchronously in the
handler) reuses the existing lock fencing, live "Summarizing..."
streaming, retry accounting, restart resilience, and debug-run
observability. Rationale documented in `coderd/x/chatd/ARCHITECTURE.md`.
## Testing
- State machine: transition-matrix coverage for `RequestCompaction`,
marker lifecycle tests (carried by lease renewals/queue appends, cleared
by terminal transitions, consumed by commit), ownership handoff +
acquisition hint assertions.
- Worker: decision-ordering and forced-compaction unit tests;
active-server end-to-end test (manual compact below threshold produces a
`source=manual` summary, returns to `waiting`, no assistant follow-up;
busy chat rejected).
- API: success, archived, non-owner, RBAC-denied, empty-chat, no-daemon
cases; usage-limit ordering (at-limit owners still get
state/nothing-to-compact conflicts for no-op requests, with marker
rollback).
- Frontend: Storybook play tests for the Commands menu group, submit
intercept, skill-name collision, queued-edit passthrough, and
manual/automatic tool rendering; unit tests for command availability
resolution and the post-compaction context usage reset.
