# Channels & Conversations
|
|
|
|
The **channel** is the universal conversation container. Messages,
|
|
tool activity, attachments, and KB bindings all hang off a channel.
|
|
Channels support multiple participants — users, personas, and
|
|
sessions — making them the foundation for collaborative and
|
|
multi-model workflows.
|
|
|
|
### Channel CRUD
|
|
|
|
**List channels** — paginated, sorted by last activity.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GET /channels?page=1&per_page=50
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Optional query filters: `type`, `types` (comma-separated), `folder`,
|
|
`folder_id`, `search`, `project_id` (UUID or `"none"`), `archived`.
|
|
|
|
Returns pagination envelope. Each channel:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"id": "uuid",
|
|
"user_id": "uuid",
|
|
"title": "My Chat",
|
|
"type": "direct|dm|group|channel|workflow|service",
|
|
"ai_mode": "auto|mention_only|off",
|
|
"topic": "string|null",
|
|
"description": "",
|
|
"model": "claude-sonnet-4-20250514",
|
|
"provider_config_id": "uuid|null",
|
|
"system_prompt": "",
|
|
"is_archived": false,
|
|
"is_pinned": false,
|
|
"folder": "string|null",
|
|
"folder_id": "uuid|null",
|
|
"project_id": "uuid|null",
|
|
"workspace_id": "uuid|null",
|
|
"tags": ["tag1", "tag2"],
|
|
"settings": {},
|
|
"message_count": 0,
|
|
"unread_count": 0,
|
|
"created_at": "...",
|
|
"updated_at": "..."
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Channel types:**
|
|
|
|
| Type | Description |
|
|
|------|-------------|
|
|
| `direct` | Single-user chat (default, backward compatible) |
|
|
| `dm` | Human-to-human direct message, AI silent unless @mentioned |
|
|
| `group` | Multi-user/multi-model collaborative channel |
|
|
| `channel` | Named persistent space, configurable ai_mode |
|
|
| `workflow` | Staged channel driven by workflow definitions |
|
|
| `service` | Autonomous task execution, no human participant |
|
|
|
|
**Create channel:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
POST /channels
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"title": "New Chat",
|
|
"type": "direct",
|
|
"description": "",
|
|
"model": "claude-sonnet-4-20250514",
|
|
"provider_config_id": "uuid",
|
|
"system_prompt": "",
|
|
"folder": null,
|
|
"folder_id": null,
|
|
"tags": [],
|
|
"participants": ["user-uuid"]
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
On create, the authenticated user is automatically added as a
|
|
participant with `role: "owner"`. If `model` and `provider_config_id`
|
|
are provided, the channel model roster (`channel_models`) is
|
|
auto-populated with an initial entry.
|
|
|
|
`participants` is only used for `dm` type — array of exactly one
|
|
other user UUID. The handler enforces DM dedup: if a DM already
|
|
exists between the two users, the existing channel is returned
|
|
(HTTP 200, not 201).
|
|
|
|
**Get channel:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GET /channels/:id
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Returns single channel object. Accessible by the channel owner
|
|
**or** any user who is a participant in the channel (via
|
|
`channel_participants`).
|
|
|
|
**Update channel:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
PUT /channels/:id
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Accepts partial updates — only fields present in the body are changed.
|
|
Same field set as create, plus `is_archived`, `is_pinned`, `settings`
|
|
(JSONB merge), `workspace_id`, `ai_mode`, `topic`, `folder_id`.
|
|
|
|
**Auth:** Owner only (keyed on `user_id` column).
|
|
|
|
**Delete channel:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
DELETE /channels/:id
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Cascades: deletes messages, files, channel_models, channel_kbs,
|
|
channel_participants. Storage cleanup runs asynchronously.
|
|
|
|
**Auth:** Owner only.
|
|
|
|
### Message Tree
|
|
|
|
Switchboard uses a **tree** model for messages, not a flat list. Each
|
|
message has a `parent_id` (NULL for root). Editing creates a sibling
|
|
branch; regeneration creates an alternative sibling. The **cursor**
|
|
tracks which child is "active" at each branch point.
|
|
|
|
**Get active path** — the primary endpoint for loading chat history:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GET /channels/:id/path
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Returns the messages along the active branch from root to leaf,
|
|
following the cursor at each fork. This is what the UI renders.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"messages": [
|
|
{
|
|
"id": "uuid",
|
|
"channel_id": "uuid",
|
|
"parent_id": "uuid|null",
|
|
"role": "user|assistant|system|tool",
|
|
"content": "...",
|
|
"model": "claude-sonnet-4-20250514|null",
|
|
"provider_config_id": "uuid|null",
|
|
"participant_id": "uuid|null",
|
|
"participant_type": "user|persona|session|null",
|
|
"thinking": "...|null",
|
|
"tool_calls": [...],
|
|
"tool_results": [...],
|
|
"attachments": [...],
|
|
"has_siblings": true,
|
|
"sibling_index": 0,
|
|
"sibling_count": 2,
|
|
"created_at": "..."
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`participant_id` and `participant_type` identify who authored the
|
|
message. For `user` messages, this is the authenticated user. For
|
|
`assistant` messages, this is the persona (if set) or null for raw
|
|
model responses. Existing messages without participants return null.
|
|
|
|
**List all messages** — includes all branches, flat:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GET /channels/:id/messages
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Legacy/debug endpoint. Returns every message in the channel regardless
|
|
of branch. Not used by the standard frontend.
|
|
|
|
**Create message:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
POST /channels/:id/messages
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"role": "user",
|
|
"content": "Hello",
|
|
"parent_id": "uuid|null",
|
|
"attachments": ["attachment-uuid-1"]
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Edit message** — creates a sibling at the same level:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
POST /channels/:id/messages/:msgId/edit
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "content": "Revised question" }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Creates a new message with the same `parent_id` as the original.
|
|
Automatically updates the cursor to point to the new sibling.
|
|
|
|
**Regenerate** — creates an alternative assistant response:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
POST /channels/:id/messages/:msgId/regenerate
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"model": "claude-sonnet-4-20250514",
|
|
"provider_config_id": "uuid"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Creates a new empty assistant message as a sibling of `msgId`,
|
|
then streams the completion into it. The cursor is updated.
|
|
|
|
**Update cursor** — switch to a different branch:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
PUT /channels/:id/cursor
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"active_leaf_id": "uuid"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Sets which leaf message is active. The server walks the tree from
|
|
this leaf to the root and returns the full path.
|
|
Subsequent `GET /channels/:id/path` will follow the new branch.
|
|
|
|
**List siblings** — all children of a message's parent:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GET /channels/:id/messages/:msgId/siblings
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Returns `{ "siblings": [...] }` with abbreviated message objects
|
|
(id, role, content preview, created_at).
|
|
|
|
### Completions & Streaming
|
|
|
|
The single most complex endpoint. Sends a message to an LLM provider
|
|
and streams the response via Server-Sent Events.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
POST /chat/completions
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Request:**
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"channel_id": "uuid",
|
|
"message": "User's message text",
|
|
"model": "claude-sonnet-4-20250514",
|
|
"provider_config_id": "uuid",
|
|
"persona_id": "uuid|null",
|
|
"parent_id": "uuid|null",
|
|
"tools_enabled": true,
|
|
"tool_ids": ["web_search", "calculator"],
|
|
"attachments": ["attachment-uuid"],
|
|
"extra_body": {}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`channel_id` is required.
|
|
|
|
`extra_body` is a freeform JSON object merged into the provider request
|
|
(provider-specific parameters like `temperature`, `reasoning`, etc.).
|
|
|
|
**Participant scoping:** The requesting user must be a participant in
|
|
the channel. Messages are attributed to the authenticated user (or
|
|
session). In `group` channels, all participants see all messages in
|
|
real time via WebSocket.
|
|
|
|
**Persona resolution:** The primary completion path. If `persona_id`
|
|
is set (explicitly or via `@mention` resolution from message content),
|
|
the handler loads the persona's system prompt, model, provider config,
|
|
and KB bindings. Per-message `model`/`provider_config_id` override the
|
|
persona's defaults. In multi-persona channels, `@mention` in the
|
|
message content is parsed to resolve the target persona from the
|
|
channel's participant list.
|
|
|
|
**Routing resolution:** After config resolution, the routing policy
|
|
evaluator (`evaluateRouting()`) may redirect to a different provider
|
|
based on active policies (see §10.4). The winning provider config's
|
|
credentials are loaded and used for the actual API call.
|
|
|
|
**SSE Stream Format:**
|
|
|
|
The response is `Content-Type: text/event-stream`. Content and
|
|
reasoning deltas use OpenAI-compatible envelope format. Tool events
|
|
use named SSE events.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
data: {"choices":[{"delta":{"content":"Hello"},"finish_reason":null}],"model":"claude-sonnet-4-20250514"}
|
|
|
|
data: {"choices":[{"delta":{"content":" world"},"finish_reason":null}],"model":"claude-sonnet-4-20250514"}
|
|
|
|
data: {"choices":[{"delta":{"reasoning_content":"Let me think..."},"finish_reason":null}],"model":"claude-sonnet-4-20250514"}
|
|
|
|
event: tool_use
|
|
data: [{"id":"call_1","name":"web_search","input":{"query":"..."}}]
|
|
|
|
event: tool_result
|
|
data: [{"id":"call_1","content":"Search results..."}]
|
|
|
|
data: {"choices":[{"delta":{"content":"Based on the search..."},"finish_reason":null}],"model":"claude-sonnet-4-20250514"}
|
|
|
|
data: {"choices":[{"delta":{},"finish_reason":"stop"}],"model":"claude-sonnet-4-20250514"}
|
|
|
|
data: [DONE]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
| Event | `event:` field | Payload |
|
|
|-------|---------------|---------|
|
|
| Content delta | _(unnamed)_ | OpenAI envelope: `choices[0].delta.content` |
|
|
| Reasoning delta | _(unnamed)_ | OpenAI envelope: `choices[0].delta.reasoning_content` |
|
|
| Tool invocation | `tool_use` | `[{ "id", "name", "input" }]` |
|
|
| Tool result | `tool_result` | `[{ "id", "content" }]` |
|
|
| Stream complete | _(unnamed)_ | OpenAI envelope: `choices[0].finish_reason` = `"stop"` or `"budget_exceeded"` |
|
|
| End sentinel | _(unnamed)_ | `[DONE]` (literal string) |
|
|
| Error mid-stream | _(unnamed)_ | `{ "error": "message" }` |
|
|
|
|
**Tool cycle:** Tool use and tool result events can repeat up to
|
|
`max_tool_iterations` (configured server-side). The handler executes
|
|
tools, feeds results back to the model, and continues streaming.
|
|
|
|
**Response headers:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
X-Switchboard-Provider: providerID/configID
|
|
X-Switchboard-Route: policy-name (when routing policy is active)
|
|
X-Switchboard-Fallback: depth (when fallback chain was triggered)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**List available tools:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GET /tools
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Returns `{ "tools": [...] }` where each tool has `name`, `description`,
|
|
`parameters` (JSON Schema), and `category`.
|
|
|
|
### Multi-Model Roster (Raw Access)
|
|
|
|
The primary way to add AI to a channel is by adding a **persona as a
|
|
participant** (§3.7). Adding a persona automatically populates the
|
|
channel model roster with the persona's underlying model.
|
|
|
|
For the rare case where a user needs raw model access without a
|
|
persona wrapper, the `channel_models` table provides direct model
|
|
roster management. This is the 1% escape hatch — most users should
|
|
never need it.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GET /channels/:id/models → { "models": [...] }
|
|
POST /channels/:id/models ← { "model": "...", "provider_config_id": "...", "display_name": "..." }
|
|
PATCH /channels/:id/models/:modelId ← { "display_name": "..." }
|
|
DELETE /channels/:id/models/:modelId
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Each roster entry:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"id": "uuid",
|
|
"channel_id": "uuid",
|
|
"model": "claude-sonnet-4-20250514",
|
|
"provider_config_id": "uuid",
|
|
"display_name": "Claude",
|
|
"is_default": true,
|
|
"persona_id": "uuid|null",
|
|
"created_at": "..."
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`persona_id`: set when this roster entry was auto-created by adding a
|
|
persona participant. Null for manually-added raw models.
|
|
|
|
**`@mention` resolution:** When a user types `@` in a channel, the
|
|
autocomplete shows persona participants first (by display name), then
|
|
raw model roster entries. The target of a `@mention` is always
|
|
resolved to a specific `provider_config_id` + `model` pair — never
|
|
an ambiguous bare model name.
|
|
|
|
### Channel Utilities
|
|
|
|
**Summarize channel** (compaction):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
POST /channels/:id/summarize
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Triggers conversation summarization via the utility model role.
|
|
Returns `{ "message": "summarized", "summary_id": "uuid" }`.
|
|
|
|
**Generate title:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
POST /channels/:id/generate-title
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Uses the utility model to auto-generate a title from the first
|
|
exchange. Returns `{ "title": "Generated Title" }`.
|
|
|
|
### Files
|
|
|
|
All binary content associated with channels — user uploads, tool-
|
|
generated artifacts, system files — lives in the unified `files`
|
|
table backed by the ObjectStore (see §X). The old `attachments`
|
|
table and routes are removed.
|
|
|
|
**Upload (user):**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
POST /channels/:id/files
|
|
Content-Type: multipart/form-data
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Field: `file`. Sets `origin: "user_upload"`. Returns the file object.
|
|
|
|
**Create (tool output):** Tool-generated files are created internally
|
|
by the tool execution loop. There is no public REST endpoint for
|
|
tool output creation — the completion handler writes files directly
|
|
via the store layer.
|
|
|
|
**List by channel:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GET /channels/:id/files?origin=user_upload
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Returns `{ "files": [...] }`. Filterable by `origin`, `content_type`.
|
|
|
|
**List by message:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GET /messages/:id/files
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Returns `{ "files": [...] }`. How the frontend discovers generated
|
|
artifacts to render inline.
|
|
|
|
**List by user (file manager):**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GET /files?page=1&per_page=50
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Returns `{ "files": [...], "total": N, "page": N, "per_page": N }`.
|
|
All files owned by the authenticated user, paginated.
|
|
|
|
**Get metadata:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GET /files/:id
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"id": "uuid",
|
|
"channel_id": "uuid",
|
|
"message_id": "uuid|null",
|
|
"user_id": "uuid",
|
|
"origin": "user_upload|tool_output|system",
|
|
"filename": "report.pdf",
|
|
"content_type": "application/pdf",
|
|
"size_bytes": 1048576,
|
|
"display_hint": "inline|download|thumbnail",
|
|
"extracted_text": "...|null",
|
|
"metadata": {},
|
|
"created_at": "...",
|
|
"updated_at": "..."
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Download:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GET /files/:id/download
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Returns the file with appropriate `Content-Type` and
|
|
`Content-Disposition` headers.
|
|
|
|
**Thumbnail** _(planned — v0.28.0+):_
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GET /files/:id/thumbnail
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Delete:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
DELETE /files/:id
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Deletes metadata + blob. Channel deletion cascades via FK +
|
|
`DeletePrefix`.
|
|
|
|
### Channel Participants
|
|
|
|
The participant system is how users and AI interact in a channel.
|
|
**Personas are the primary way to add AI** — adding a persona as a
|
|
participant brings its full identity (name, avatar, system prompt,
|
|
model, provider config, KB bindings) into the channel. This is the
|
|
99% path. Raw model access without a persona is available via the
|
|
model roster (§3.4) for power users.
|
|
|
|
Every channel has at least one participant (the owner). `direct`
|
|
channels have exactly one user participant and optionally one or more
|
|
persona participants. `group` and `workflow` channels support multiple
|
|
participants of mixed types.
|
|
|
|
**List participants:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GET /channels/:id/participants
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Returns `{ "participants": [...] }`:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"id": "uuid",
|
|
"channel_id": "uuid",
|
|
"participant_type": "user|persona|session",
|
|
"participant_id": "uuid",
|
|
"role": "owner|member|observer",
|
|
"display_name": "Jane Doe",
|
|
"avatar_url": "...|null",
|
|
"joined_at": "..."
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Participant types:**
|
|
|
|
| Type | Description |
|
|
|------|-------------|
|
|
| `user` | Authenticated user. `participant_id` = `users.id` |
|
|
| `persona` | AI persona added to channel. `participant_id` = `personas.id`. Brings model, system prompt, KB bindings |
|
|
| `session` | Anonymous/session participant (workflow intake). `participant_id` = session token |
|
|
|
|
**Participant roles:**
|
|
|
|
| Role | Capabilities |
|
|
|------|-------------|
|
|
| `owner` | Full control: add/remove participants, delete channel, all member capabilities |
|
|
| `member` | Send messages, trigger completions, view history |
|
|
| `observer` | Read-only: view messages, no send |
|
|
|
|
**Add participant:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
POST /channels/:id/participants
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"participant_type": "user|persona",
|
|
"participant_id": "uuid",
|
|
"role": "member"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Requires `owner` role in the channel. Adding a `persona` participant:
|
|
- Makes the persona available as an `@mention` target
|
|
- Adds the persona's model to the channel model roster automatically
|
|
- Scopes the persona's KB bindings into the channel's KB resolution chain
|
|
- The persona's avatar and display name appear in the participant list
|
|
|
|
**Update participant role:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
PATCH /channels/:id/participants/:participantId
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "role": "observer" }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Remove participant:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
DELETE /channels/:id/participants/:participantId
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Cannot remove the last owner. Removing a `persona` participant also
|
|
removes its auto-created model roster entry.
|
|
|
|
**Completion routing:** When `@PersonaName` appears in message
|
|
content, the completion handler resolves to that persona's model,
|
|
provider config, and system prompt. When no `@mention` is present in
|
|
a multi-persona channel, the channel's default persona (first added)
|
|
handles the response. The `persona_id` field in the completion
|
|
request (§3.3) can also be set explicitly to override `@mention`
|
|
resolution.
|
|
|
|
**Backward compatibility:** Existing `direct` channels that predate
|
|
the participant system are auto-migrated on first access — a single
|
|
`user` participant with `role: "owner"` is created from the channel's
|
|
legacy `user_id` column.
|
|
|
|
### Presence
|
|
|
|
Heartbeat-based online status. Not channel-scoped — tracks global user presence.
|
|
|
|
**Heartbeat:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
POST /presence/heartbeat
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Client sends every 30 seconds. Server upserts `user_presence` row.
|
|
No request body needed. Returns `{ "ok": true }`.
|
|
|
|
**Auth:** Authenticated.
|
|
|
|
**Bulk query:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GET /presence?users=uuid1,uuid2,uuid3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Returns online/offline status for listed user UUIDs. Threshold:
|
|
online if last heartbeat < 90 seconds ago.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"presence": {
|
|
"uuid1": "online",
|
|
"uuid2": "offline"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Values are flat status strings. Capped at 100 user IDs per request.
|
|
|
|
Subsequent updates delivered via WebSocket `presence.changed` events.
|
|
|
|
**Typing indicators** are sent via `POST /channels/:id/typing`
|
|
(authenticated, broadcasts `typing.user` WebSocket event to other
|
|
user participants) and via WebSocket (see websocket.md). The typing
|
|
event payload includes `channel_id`, `user_id`, and `display_name`.
|
|
|
|
### Chat Folders
|
|
|
|
User-scoped grouping for chats. Folders have no semantic weight —
|
|
they are named drawers. The schema supports nesting via `parent_id`
|
|
(DnD nesting not yet implemented in the UI).
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GET /folders → { "folders": [...] }
|
|
POST /folders ← { "name": "Research", "sort_order": 0 }
|
|
PUT /folders/:id ← { "name": "Renamed", "sort_order": 1 }
|
|
DELETE /folders/:id → chats become unfiled
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Folder object:**
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"id": "uuid",
|
|
"name": "Research",
|
|
"parent_id": "uuid|null",
|
|
"sort_order": 0,
|
|
"created_at": "...",
|
|
"updated_at": "..."
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Moving a chat into/out of a folder is done via `PUT /channels/:id`
|
|
with `{ "folder_id": "uuid" }` or `{ "folder_id": "" }` to unbind.
|
|
|
|
The channel list also supports `?folder_id=uuid` as a query filter.
|
|
|
|
**Auth:** Authenticated (user-scoped).
|
|
|
|
### Channel Configuration
|
|
|
|
Additional channel fields (set via `PUT /channels/:id`):

|
|
| `allow_anonymous` | boolean | false | Session participants can join. Set by workflow instance handlers on channel creation. |
|
|
| `kb_auto_inject` | boolean | false | Top-K KB chunks auto-prepend to context _(v0.28.0 — schema exists, not yet wired)_. |
|
|
|
|
`ai_mode` behavioral matrix:
|
|
|
|
| Channel type | Default ai_mode | Notes |
|
|
|-------------|----------------|-------|
|
|
| `direct` | `auto` | Existing behavior |
|
|
| `dm` | `mention_only` | AI silent unless @mentioned |
|
|
| `group` | `auto` | Configurable per channel |
|
|
| `channel` | `auto` | Configurable per channel |
|
|
|
|
### Mark Read
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
POST /channels/:id/mark-read
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Updates the user's `last_read_at` cursor. Used for unread count
|
|
