Conversation Rows
Section titled “Conversation Rows”Each item in the list represents a persistent chat session.
| Action | Function |

Conversation History vs. Project guidance
Section titled “Conversation History vs. Project guidance”Conversation History and Project guidance solve different problems.
- Conversation History stores chats, titles, and message threads.
- Project guidance stores the active FileMaker file’s display name, description, enabled Project rules, and optional overrides for naming conventions, reusable patterns, and script template.
When Genie detects a real project switch, it preserves the old chat in Conversation History and starts a fresh chat for the newly active project.
Use Project Guidance when you want Genie to remember file-specific behavior over time instead of just reopening an old conversation.
