Fixes issue where Happy was losing context during normal conversations, causing it to forget previous messages even within the same session. **Root Cause:** The remote launcher was calling `resetParentChain()` on every loop iteration, which happened whenever: - Message queue mode changed (permission mode, model, tools, etc.) - /clear or /compact commands were used - Any condition triggered a new claudeRemote() iteration This caused context loss even during normal multi-turn conversations. **Solution:** Track the session ID across loop iterations and only reset the parent chain when the session ID actually changes (new session started) or becomes null (/clear command). **Impact:** ✅ Normal multi-turn conversations now preserve context ✅ Permission mode changes preserve context ✅ Model changes preserve context ✅ /compact command preserves context ✅ /clear command still properly clears context Fixes #143 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Problem
Happy was losing conversation context during normal usage, causing it to forget previous messages even within the same session. Users reported it behaving as if /exit was typed constantly creating new conversations.
Root Cause
The remote launcher (src/claude/claudeRemoteLauncher.ts) was calling resetParentChain on every loop iteration, which happened whenever:
