- Bots get continue_in_new_session: the bot writes a title and summary,
the session closes for good (read-only) and the new one opens with the
summary as a "Carried over from the last session" message that links
back to the old session.
- Continue in new session (conversation menu, sessions modal) and the
automatic rollover at the session length do the same; New session now
starts a fresh, unlinked session.
- Session length is an app setting in Settings > General.
- ?session_id= opens a session; a carried-over one shows a bar linking to
where the conversation went on instead of the composer.
- The thread can open the previous session above the current one (shown
only, never in the prompt), and replies get search_past_sessions and
read_past_session.
- Sessions are named from their opening messages, not their latest, and
a carried summary is labelled as the earlier session's.
