Creates a changeset for a chat message.

Parameters

  • chat_message - The ChatMessage struct to update (typically %ChatMessage{})

Validation Rules

  • content and role are required
  • content must be between 1 and 10,000 characters
  • User messages (role: :user) require an associated user
  • Status defaults based on role: :pending for users, :success for assistant
  • If status is explicitly provided, it takes precedence over role-based defaults

This is a focused changeset that only updates the status field, useful for updating message state during processing.

Examples

# Mark message as successful
ChatMessage.status_changeset(message, :success)
