It is unfortunate that you loose chat history when you delete a session. Ideally, I would be able to keep the wortree structure clean without loosing chat history.

Start at the /chat path and trace how session deletion and chat history are currently handled. Define the intended behavior for deleting a session while preserving its history, then identify the affected persistence and UI areas; done means the worktree can be cleaned without losing accessible chat history.
