+### Fixed
+- **CRITICAL: Session Persistence**: Completely eliminated unwanted session clearing that was destroying chat history
+  - Sessions now persist when switching providers or models
+  - TTS mode switching preserves chat history
+  - Error handling preserves sessions instead of creating new ones
+  - System tray actions require user confirmation and cannot bypass session control
+  - Only explicit "Clear" button action in UI destroys sessions

+  - Base size: 630x196, expands to 630x224 when files are attached (compact)
+  - Voice mode properly adjusts: 630x120 base, 630x148 with attachments
+  - Maintains proper positioning relative to system tray after resize
+- **Session Clearing**: Clear session now also clears attached files
+  - When user clicks "Clear" button, both messages and attached files are cleared
+  - Updated confirmation dialog to mention attached files will be removed
+  - Ensures complete session reset including file attachments
+- **File Chip Styling**: Made file attachment chips more compact and space-efficient
+  - Reduced font size from 10px to 8px for better space utilization

+  - Cleaner interface without unnecessary UI extensions
+  - Voice controls still available through existing TTS toggle button
+- **File Attachment Persistence & Visual Indicators**: Enhanced file handling for better user experience
+  - Files now remain attached after sending messages, allowing for easy reuse in follow-up messages
+  - Added visual file attachment indicators (📎) in chat history dialog showing file count per message
+  - Enhanced message history structure to track file attachments per message
+  - Clear session now properly clears both messages and file attachment tracking
