* Shorten session sidebar relative time labels
* feat: adaptive session title refresh based on conversation evolution
Addresses #869 — the 'Optional' part: adapt session names to current
conversation context instead of only generating once from the first exchange.
Backend (api/streaming.py):
- Add _latest_exchange_snippets() to extract last user+assistant pair
- Add _count_exchanges() to count user messages
- Add _get_title_refresh_interval() to read the setting
- Add _run_background_title_refresh() — refreshes title from latest exchange
with LLM, skips if title is unchanged or user manually renamed
- Add _maybe_schedule_title_refresh() — checks exchange count and schedules
refresh after stream_end (non-blocking)
Config (api/config.py):
- Add auto_title_refresh_every setting (default '0' = off)
- Enum validation: {'0', '5', '10', '20'}
Frontend:
- Settings UI dropdown (static/index.html)
- Wire up load/save in panels.js
- i18n keys for all 6 locales (en/ru/es/de/zh/zh-Hant)
Default: off. Opt-in via Settings > Conversation > Adaptive title refresh.
* test: add 37 tests for adaptive title refresh helpers
Covers all five new functions introduced in this PR:
_count_exchanges, _latest_exchange_snippets, _get_title_refresh_interval,
_run_background_title_refresh, _maybe_schedule_title_refresh

* fix(settings): show selected state on theme/skin/font-size picker cards
The CSS rule `#mainSettings .theme-pick-btn { border-color: var(--border) !important }` was
overriding the inline `style.borderColor = "var(--accent)"` set by `_syncThemePicker()` and
siblings — `!important` beats inline styles. Active cards showed no visual highlight.
Fix: move to `.active` CSS class with `border-color:var(--accent)!important` so the active
rule wins over the base rule, and clear the stale inline borderColor/boxShadow from the
sync functions. 5 regression tests added.
Closes#1057
* fix: rename test file to match PR number, fix stale issue reference
* docs: v0.50.211 release notes and version bump
Compact sidebar timestamps, adaptive title refresh (opt-in), settings picker fix.
* docs(changelog): correct settings tab for adaptive title refresh
The v0.50.211 entry for #1058 said "Settings → Appearance" but the
toggle is actually rendered inside settingsPanePreferences (the
Preferences tab) per static/index.html:604+. The commit message also
had the wrong tab ("Conversation"). Updated CHANGELOG to match the
actual UI surface so users can find the toggle.

* fix: create state dir before writing settings file
save_settings() called SETTINGS_FILE.write_text() without ensuring the
parent directory exists. In fresh environments (CI, first run without
HERMES_WEBUI_STATE_DIR set) this raised FileNotFoundError.
Add mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True) before the write.

_sessions is an in-memory dict, so every process restart (launchd bounce,
systemd restart, container recycle) invalidates all active browser sessions.
Users get 401 on every authenticated endpoint until they clear cookies.
The HMAC signing key already persists to STATE_DIR/.signing_key via atomic
owner-only write. This PR applies the same pattern to the session table:
- _load_sessions(): reads .sessions.json on module import, prunes expired
entries, tolerates missing/malformed files (returns {} on any error)
- _save_sessions(): atomic write via tempfile + os.replace(), chmod 0600,
mirrors .signing_key write pattern exactly
- create_session(): saves after inserting new token
- invalidate_session(): saves after removing token (only if token existed)
- _prune_expired_sessions(): saves only when entries are actually removed
Cookie format and signing are unchanged; existing sessions survive upgrade.
6 regression tests cover: restart survival, invalidation persistence,
expiry pruning on load, 0600 permissions, corrupt-file tolerance.
