+ // Limit history to 50 items
+ if (newHistory.length > 50) {
+ newHistory.shift();
+ setHistoryIndex(prev => prev); // Keep same index since we removed from start


The callback setHistoryIndex(prev => prev) is a no-op that returns the same value. When removing the oldest history item, the index should be decremented but is handled incorrectly. The logic should be moved outside the callback to properly update the index after the history array is modified.

Remove TODO-style comments from production code. Either implement the toast notification feature or remove the comment.

Using -1 as a magic number to represent 'append to end' is unclear. Consider using a named constant or undefined/null to make the intent more explicit.
