clear the chat history in our Developer Community AI assistant.

In 2025, a deletion feature for a programming AI is a technical and legal necessity rather than a luxury. Forcing permanent storage of proprietary code creates an unacceptable intellectual property risk, as even inadvertent leaks of API keys or secrets become permanent vulnerabilities without a purge mechanism. Furthermore, allowing developers to clear history prevents "context drift," ensuring the AI remains accurate and focused on the current codebase rather than being confused by discarded iterations from previous sessions.Beyond utility, providing a deletion tool is now a mandatory legal requirement under 2025 standards like the California Delete Act and the GDPR Right to Erasure. In an era where AI logs are increasingly subpoenaed in copyright and patent litigation, developers require data sovereignty to protect their organizations. Implementing a robust "clear history" feature is the only way to satisfy these 2025 compliance mandates while maintaining the trust of the professional engineering community
