async function loadChatHistory(taskId) {
  const response = await fetch(`${API_BASE}/api/v1/tasks/${taskId}/history`, {
    headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}` }
  });

  const { data } = await response.json();

  return data.messages.map(msg => ({
    id: msg.id,
    sender: msg.role === 'user' ? 'You' : 'AI Assistant',
    text: msg.content,
    timestamp: new Date(msg.createdAt),
    files: msg.attachedFiles || [],
    thinking: msg.thoughts || [],
    tools: msg.toolCalls || []
  }));
}

​

function renderMessage(message) {
  // Show attached files for user messages
  if (message.attachedFiles?.length > 0) {

          {message.attachedFiles.map(file => (
            <span key={file.path}>📎 {file.name}</span>
          ))}
        </div>
        <p>{message.content}</p>
      </div>
    );
