Agents using API channel inboxes (e.g., WhatsApp Automate) reported
seeing the same conversation appear twice in their conversation list —
one showing the last message preview and the other showing "No
Messages". Backend investigation confirmed no duplicate conversations
exist in the database, making this purely a frontend issue.
The root cause is a race condition in WebSocket event delivery. When a
conversation is created via the API with auto-assignment, the backend
enqueues multiple ActionCable broadcast jobs (`conversation.created`,
`assignee.changed`, `team.changed`) within milliseconds of each other.
In production with multi-threaded Sidekiq workers, these events can
arrive at the frontend out of order. If `assignee.changed` arrives
before `conversation.created`, the `UPDATE_CONVERSATION` mutation pushes
the conversation into the store (since it doesn't exist yet), and then
`ADD_CONVERSATION` blindly pushes it again — resulting in a duplicate
entry.
The fix adds a uniqueness check in the `ADD_CONVERSATION` mutation to
skip the push if a conversation with the same ID already exists in the
store, matching the dedup pattern already used by
`SET_ALL_CONVERSATION`.
We are expanding Chatwoot’s automation capabilities by
introducing **Conversation Workflows**, a dedicated section in settings
where teams can configure rules that govern how conversations are closed
and what information agents must fill before resolving. This feature
helps teams enforce data consistency, collect structured resolution
information, and ensure downstream reporting is accurate.
Instead of having auto‑resolution buried inside Account Settings, we
introduced a new sidebar item:
- Auto‑resolve conversations (existing behaviour)
- Required attributes on resolution (new)
This groups all conversation‑closing logic into a single place.
#### Required Attributes on Resolve
Admins can now pick which custom conversation attributes must be filled
before an agent can resolve a conversation.
**How it works**
- Admin selects one or more attributes from the list of existing
conversation level custom attributes.
- These selected attributes become mandatory during resolution.
- List all the attributes configured via Required Attributes (Text,
Number, Link, Date, List, Checkbox)
- When an agent clicks Resolve Conversation:
If attributes already have values → the conversation resolves normally.
If attributes are missing → a modal appears prompting the agent to fill
them.

/>
#### Custom Attributes Integration
On the Custom Attributes page, we will surfaced indicators showing how
each attribute is being used.
Each attribute will show badges such as:
- Resolution → used in the required‑on‑resolve workflow
- Pre‑chat form → already existing

/>
#### Admin Flow
- Navigate to Settings → Conversation Workflows.
- Under Required attributes on resolve, click Add Required Attribute.
- Pick from the dropdown list of conversation attributes.
- Save changes.
Agents will now be prompted automatically whenever they resolve.

/>
#### NOTES
- The Required Attributes on Resolve modal should only appear when
values are missing.
- Required attributes must block the resolution action until satisfied.
- Bulk‑resolve actions should follow the same rules — any conversation
missing attributes cannot be bulk‑resolved, rest will be resolved, show
a notification that the resolution cannot be done.
- API resolution does not respect the attributes.

This PR allows Copilot to be used without connecting the Captain assistant to an inbox. Currently, if Captain is enabled on an account, it takes over conversations and responds directly to users. This PR enables the use of Captain as a Copilot without allowing it to respond to users. Additionally, it allows using a different assistant for Copilot instead of the default Captain assistant.
The selection logic for the Copilot assistant follows this order of preference:
- If the user has selected a specific assistant, it takes first preference for Copilot.
- If the above is not available, the assistant connected to the inbox takes preference.
- If neither of the above is available, the first assistant in the account takes preference.
When the chat is viewed, a function `fetchAllAttachments` is run to get all attachments for a particular conversation. This function, before updating the record creates the `attachments` property on the `chat` object in the store.
If in any case this function fails, the `attachments` property is not created, and when the code reaches the `dashboard/store/modules/conversations/index.js` the error occurs
This PR fixes it by ensuring that `SET_ALL_ATTACHMENTS` is always run. And it handles the default case as well

Due to the pattern `**/specs/*.spec.js` defined in CircleCI, none of the
frontend spec in the folders such as
`specs/<domain-name>/getters.spec.js` were not executed in Circle CI.
This PR fixes the issue, along with the following changes:
- Use vitest instead of jest
- Remove jest dependancies
- Update tests to work with vitest

# Replace the deprecated `eventBus` with mitt.js
## Description
Since eventBus and it's respective methods are deprecated and removed
from all future releases of vue, this was blocking us from migrating.
This PR replaces eventBus with
[mitt](https://github.com/developit/mitt). I have created a wrapper
mitt.js to simulate the same old event names so it's backwards
compatible, without making a lot of changes.
