This pass remembers the last relevant entry it saw, and if a later entry in the main conversation (not a side branch) has no recorded parent, its parent is retroactively set to that remembered entry, unless it's already anchored some other way.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis stitches transcript entries back together that would otherwise appear disconnected from their preceding context, likely improving how conversation history is displayed or replayed.\n\n- Area: Elsewhere\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5"}
