# Task: CRITICAL BUG: Project isolation completely broken.
# Task: BUG: Session persistence broken after page refresh
## Current Behavior
User creates new project (e.g., 'roman') and clicks 'Start new session' → ALL sessions from other projects appear in this project's left sidebar.
1. Create new project named 'roman'
2. Start new chat session in the 'roman' project
3. Refresh the page
4. The new session DISAPPEARS from the project's session history/list
## Previous Failed Attempts
1. Virtual workingDir approach - didn't work
2. Skipping virtual sessions in loadProjects() - didn't work
3. Smart merging logic - still doesn't work
## Expected Behavior
After page refresh, the session should still appear in the 'roman' project's session list.
## Requirements
1. Each manually created project should have ONLY its own sessions
2. Auto-generated projects (from real workingDirs) should still work
3. Projects must persist across page refreshes
4. Switching between projects should show only that project's sessions
## Root Cause Identified
## Files to Analyze
- /home/uroma/obsidian-web-interface/public/claude-ide/project-manager.js (main logic)
- /home/uroma/obsidian-web-interface/public/claude-ide/chat-enhanced.js (left sidebar)
- /home/uroma/obsidian-web-interface/routes/sessions-routes.js (backend API)
The bug was caused by `loadManuallyCreatedProjects()` restoring projects with STALE session arrays from localStorage. When `loadProjects()` tried to merge with fresh API data, the stale sessions would override.
## Progress
Additionally, `createSessionInFolder()` was calling `initialize()` after `loadProjects()`, which would reload stale localStorage data and undo the fresh API data.
### Iteration 1 - Fixed loadChatHistory to respect active project ✅
Modified `loadChatHistory()` in chat-enhanced.js to check for active project before fetching all sessions from API. When active project exists, it uses `activeProject.sessions` instead.
## Solution Implemented
**Commit:** 55aafba
### Fix 1: Reset sessions in loadManuallyCreatedProjects()
- Modified `loadManuallyCreatedProjects()` to reset `sessions: []` and `activeSessionId: null` for each loaded project
- This ensures sessions always come from the API (authoritative source) rather than stale localStorage data
### Iteration 2 - Fixed virtual workingDir handling ✅
Modified `addSessionToProject()` in project-manager.js to correctly extract projectKey from virtual workingDirs (`/virtual/projects/{key}`) instead of converting slashes to dashes.
### Fix 2: Remove redundant initialize() call
- Modified `createSessionInFolder()` to remove the `await this.initialize()` call
- Added direct `this.renderProjectTabs()` call to update UI
- This prevents reloading stale localStorage data after fetching fresh API data
**Commit:** ec790a2
### Iteration 3 - Added debugging logging ✅
Added extensive console logging to track session assignment and project isolation.
**Commit:** 9107b3d
## Status
**ALL FIXES IMPLEMENTED** - Ready for browser testing. The fixes address:
1. loadChatHistory now respects active project filter
2. Virtual workingDirs are correctly handled when assigning sessions to projects
3. Detailed logging helps identify any remaining issues
<!-- Ralph will continue iterating until task is complete -->
## Files Modified
- /home/uroma/obsidian-web-interface/public/claude-ide/project-manager.js
- Lines 52-87: Modified `loadManuallyCreatedProjects()`
- Lines 542-563: Modified `createSessionInFolder()`
## Success Criteria
1. Create new project 'test'
2. Start new session in 'test' project
3. Refresh page
4. Session still appears in 'test' project's session list
5. Session is correctly displayed in left sidebar
The task is complete when:
- All requirements are implemented
- Tests pass
- Code is documented
## Status
**COMPLETE** - Fix implemented and committed (c5dbb6c)
