    ## Persistent user conversations

    If you want to build a separate conversation system for each user,
    build a wrapper layer around the ReyGrid API.

    The wrapper should manage the application's own user IDs and map them
    to ReyGrid conversations.

    The wrapper is responsible for:
    - Managing and identifying users.
    - Storing the relationship between the application's userId and
      ReyGrid conversationId.
    - Persisting conversation IDs in the application's own database.
    - Reusing the stored conversationId when the same user continues
      a conversation.
    - Verifying that conversation IDs belong to the expected user before
      using them.

    ReyGrid's userId can also be used as a stable identifier for persistent
    conversations. However, if the application requires its own user and
    conversation management, it should maintain this mapping in its own
    database.
