v1.9.1 - Full Route History Disable Support

Fixed

• Fixed issue #68: ROUTE_HISTORY_ENABLED=false now disables Route History end-to-end instead of only stopping new history recording

• When Route History is disabled:

  • The History tool button is removed
  • The History panel does not load
  • history=on in the URL no longer re-enables the feature
  • /snapshot no longer returns history_edges or a nonzero history window
  • The realtime WebSocket snapshot no longer publishes history payloads

---

Behavior Change

ROUTE_HISTORY_ENABLED now behaves as a true feature flag for both:

• Backend history payloads
• Frontend History tool/UI

This makes it practical to disable Route History entirely on:

• High-volume meshes
• Lower-resource deployments

---

Config

Use:

ROUTE_HISTORY_ENABLED=false

This now fully disables:

• History tool UI
• History snapshot payloads
• History panel activation
• Hidden frontend history state

---

Validation

• pytest -q tests/test_api_auth.py tests/test_websocket_snapshot.py

  • 13 passed

• node --check backend/static/app.js

• python3 -m py_compile backend/*.py
