Anonymous, session-rate-limited chat over the channel (or a single episode when ``episode`` is in context). Uses an inline Alpine.js component — no extra JS file, no WebSocket, no SSE. The server returns a full JSON response per turn (Phase 1). Tokens-level streaming is deferred to Phase 2 (requires ASGI). Citations render as buttons that spin up an inline mini-player inside the drawer (audio seeks to the cited moment). A "Go to episode" action hands off the current playback position to the full episode page via ``?t=&autoplay=1``. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- #}
