fix(chat): use Claude's captured session context window - #2452
Claude's context-remaining indicator can stay absent throughout a session. Ovis reads the used-token count from the transcript, including cached input, but usually lacks the context limit needed to calculate a percentage. The UI hides the entire indicator when that limit is unknown.
The old code has one fallback: once a Claude request exceeds 200k input tokens, it assumes a 1M context window. At or below that threshold, it leaves the limit unknown. This is the context used by a request, not cumulative session usage, so a long session can still show no indicator. The missing limit affects both standard 200k sessions and 1M sessions below the threshold.
Extend the opt-in status-line capture from #2269 to read Claude's reported context limit for each session and model. For example, a session using about 40k tokens can now show about 80% remaining with a 200k limit, or 96% remaining with a 1M limit. The used-token count still comes from the transcript; the capture supplies the limit. This does not require subscription quota data.
Store session context separately from account quota. Accept only a fresh capture matching the transcript's session and model. Include the captured limit in the response version so a status-line update invalidates an unchanged transcript's ETag.
Keep the existing bounded payload reads and file ownership checks. Remove only this installation's session captures on uninstall. Cover other profiles, unowned files, links, stale captures, and HTTP cache invalidation with tests.
Validation
Initial implementation: bun run check fast passed, including typecheck, production build, and 9,236 unit tests; 41 tests skipped.
After the changelog review fix: typecheck, build, and 9,235 unit tests passed. One browser-runner timeout-cleanup test failed; all six tests in that file passed on rerun.
Targeted status-line and conversation HTTP tests are included in the unit suite.
Full browser and native Windows checks were not run locally. The status-line installer remains unavailable on Windows.

📝 Summary
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Claude context percentages now use the context limit reported for the active session and model, including 1M-context sessions using fewer than 200k tokens.
When available, a recent matching status-line capture provides the context limit without requiring subscription usage data. Mismatched or unavailable captures won’t affect the displayed context information.
The status-line wrapper captures Claude session context limits separately from quota data. Conversation responses use a captured limit when the session and model match and the capture is fresh. Profile removal also deletes its marked context captures.

Summary
Capture and validate context windows server/statusline-capture.ts, server/statusline.ts, server/statusline.test.ts, server/statusline-install.test.ts
The wrapper stores valid session and model context data in a profile-fingerprinted record. The reader rejects invalid, mismatched, oversized, stale, or future-dated captures. Tests cover capture permissions, session matching, failure cases, and quota capture continuity.
Profile removal deletes marked captures associated with the profile. Tests check that unmarked files, symlinks, and symlink targets remain.
Add matching windows to conversation responses server/conversation.ts, server/claude-context.test.ts, docs/guide.md, changelog.d/claude-session-context.md
Claude conversation responses include a captured window when the session and model match. Integration tests cover context metadata, ETag behavior, and missing or mismatched captures. The guide and changelog describe the change.

Merge Risk: Low · up to 69dff
The changelog entry needs wrapping before release, but this does not block the conversation behavior. The change is otherwise mergeable on the supplied evidence.

Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description covers the Change section and the Validation section, so it follows the repository template. The Change section explains the problem (Claude context-remaining indicator stays hidden when the context limit is unknown), the fix (read the reported context limit per session and model from the opt-in status-line capture), and the safeguards (fresh capture only, session and model match, ETag invalidation, bounded reads, ownership checks, uninstall cleanup). The Validation section lists the commands run, their results, and the checks skipped (browser and native Windows). The description does not link a maintainer-agreed issue; it references #2269 but not an issue for this feature, which the template asks for. The template's CONTRIBUTING.md and changelog pointers are not addressed explicitly, though the raw summary shows a changelog entry was added. Overall the description is mostly complete.

M1: Isolate captures by profile and validate no-follow descriptors against the transcript profile, marker, session, model, size, uid and freshness.
M2: Clean temporary files only after this invocation creates them exclusively.
L1: Prune stale own captures with a bounded scan on new sessions; uninstall uses the same quarantine protocol. Document pathname-only directory-race limits.
