Description
### Problem
Accidental deletion of chat history causes irreversible data loss. Current browser print (Ctrl+P) doesn’t capture full chats.
### Proposed Solution
1. **Confirmation dialog** before deleting any chat/history
2. **Export options** in chat menu:
- PDF (with styling)
- HTML (interactive)
- Plain text
3. UI reference:
[Chat Menu]
├── ...
├── Export → [PDF, HTML, TXT]
└── Delete (with confirmation popup)
### Why is this important?
- Prevents user frustration (reported by multiple community members)
- Aligns with competitors (ChatGPT/Claude have export)
- Critical for educational/professional use cases

Research direction
The issue names only the Web UI, chat menu, and delete action; begin by locating those entry points and checking how chat history is rendered and removed. Done means the menu offers PDF, HTML, and plain-text export and deletion asks for confirmation, with full-chat output and the proposed styling or interactivity.
