-# FE handoff — stop generation mid-turn
-
-Courier this to `../frontend`. All changes are ADDITIVE.
-
-## What shipped (backend)
-
-A "stop" button: aborts an in-flight generation without closing the conversation.
-The conversation stays open — it transitions `active → idle` via the normal
-turn-settle path. Partial messages are persisted. The turn seals with
-`finishReason: "aborted"`.
-
-This is distinct from `POST /conversations/:id/close` which marks the
-conversation as `closed` (tab dismiss).
-
-## `POST /conversations/:id/stop` — stop generation
-
-Aborts the in-flight turn's `AbortController`. The kernel finishes generation,
-persists partial messages, and seals the turn normally. The conversation
-transitions `active → idle` (not `closed`).
-
-- 200 response: `{ conversationId: string, abortedTurn: boolean }`
-- `abortedTurn: true` — a turn was active and has been aborted.
-- `abortedTurn: false` — no active turn (no-op, conversation was already idle).
-- Idempotent — stopping an idle conversation is safe.
-
-## What the FE receives after stopping
-
-The existing event flow handles everything — no new WS message needed:
-
-1. The `done` event arrives with `reason: "aborted"` (the turn sealed normally).
-2. The `conversation.statusChanged` WS message arrives with `status: "idle"`.
-3. The FE should reload history via `GET /conversations/:id` to see the partial
- messages that were persisted before the abort.
-
-## What the FE needs to do
-
-1. **Stop button** in the conversation toolbar (only visible when `status: "active"`).
- On click → `POST /conversations/:id/stop`. Disable the button after clicking
- (wait for the `done` event + `statusChanged: idle` before re-enabling).
-
-2. **Handle the response**: `abortedTurn: true` means the stop worked.
- `abortedTurn: false` means there was nothing to stop (the turn may have
- already finished between the click and the request).
-
-3. **Reload history** after receiving the `done` event to show partial output.
-
-## CLI
-
-`dispatch stop <conversationId>` — stops generation. Resolves short IDs.
