Add ability to clear chat history in slack bot #88

Open rwood-97 opened 1 year ago

rwood-97 commented 1 year ago

After the end of each 'conversation' with the chat bot, we should clear the history so that irrelevant history isn't kept unncessarily. Two options for this are:

[x] User manually clears chat history though interaction on slack. eg.. could be to emoji a message or use one of the / commands
[ ] We implement a timeout system where the chat history auto clears after xx amount of time. Could be something like after 3 hours or 24 hours.

Might be good to implement both of these.

Do we know what happens if the chat history gets too long? Do older chat histories just get cut off, or does it crash due to not enough context length left?

Edit: see #101

71 may also be relevant here as both are relating to emoji react events.
