fix: Resolve conversation context issues

- Disable persistent conversation history by default (start fresh each session)
- Clear conversation history on startup to prevent stale context
- Add proper system prompt for clean conversations
- Fix /help command handling in tool commands
- Improve help display with better tool organization

Fixes issue where AI was responding with stale JavaScript context from previous sessions
