Hi,

I'm pretty sure there's an index issue with the messages that is espacially annoying when trying to delete a message, the wrong message gets deleted!

Research direction
The issue likely originates from incorrect indexing in the message deletion logic. Check the chat module (e.g., lua/chatgpt/init.lua or similar) for functions handling message deletion. Reproduce the bug by sending multiple messages and using the delete shortcut to verify the index mismatch. Look for any loops or array manipulations that might shift indices after deletion.
