Stop button does not work and AI output/history not visible during generation #53

Description

Two related issues occur during AI response generation:

  1. The Stop button does not work — clicking the stop/cancel button (■) has no effect; the AI continues generating regardless
  2. The chat history and AI output are not visible during generation — the chat area remains completely black/empty while the response is being streamed

Observed Behavior

  • A message is sent and the AI starts processing (timer shows e.g. "1m 13s", progress shows 3%)
  • The chat area is completely blank — neither the user's message nor any AI output is visible
  • The stop button (■) in the bottom right is shown but clicking it does not cancel the generation
  • The input field shows "Queue a message..." suggesting the system is locked in a generating state
  • The only visible element is the user's last message bubble in the top right corner

Expected Behavior

  • The chat history should remain fully visible during generation
  • Streamed AI output should appear in real-time as it is generated
  • The stop button should immediately cancel the ongoing generation
  • After stopping, the partially generated response should remain visible (or be clearly marked as interrupted)

Why This Matters

  • Users have no way to interrupt long or incorrect responses
  • The blank screen during generation is disorienting — there is no feedback that anything is happening except the timer and progress percentage
  • Makes the app feel unresponsive and broken during longer tasks

Environment

  • OpenGUI Desktop Interface
  • OS: Linux
  • Model: GPT-5.4, Build mode
