Changelog Entry

Description

Added a call to setDefaults() inside the chat navigation logic (navigateHandler) to properly initialize the chat state when no previous session data exists in sessionStorage.

Added

N/A

Changed

Modified navigateHandler to include an else condition that triggers setDefaults() when sessionStorage does not contain chat input data.

Deprecated

N/A

Removed

N/A

Fixed

Fixed an issue where reopening a tab or starting a new session without sessionStorage data caused chat parameters (e.g., model settings, filters) not to load properly.

Security

N/A

Breaking Changes

None

Additional Information

When a user closes and reopens a tab, sessionStorage is cleared, which previously resulted in missing chat configuration (e.g., model, tools, filters).
This update ensures that in such cases, default settings are reloaded automatically through setDefaults().
