Chat-context shellware

Chat-context shellware, internally named idps, reads saved AI conversation context. It is useful when a linked conversation contains decisions or instructions that matter to the current work.

Tool

read accepts an IDPS scope, head, thread, or message link.

A message link returns that message. A head or thread returns the conversation up to its current point. The result includes useful metadata and canonical links for a more precise follow-up read.

System-only text is excluded and long tool payloads are shortened, so the retrieved context remains readable. This shellware requires an attached chat-context provider.
