Audit of every rendered time found five families of ad-hoc formatting:
the shared Time component + copies of its today/yesterday branch
(forwarded header, thread summary, read receipts, device tile, moderation
alerts, edit history), locale-default toLocale*String calls that ignored
the user's 12/24 h and date-format settings (scheduled tray, reminders,
schedule preview, notification snooze, bookmarks, threads list, search
cache line, room insights, media gallery), a hard-coded en-US date in the
activity log, and three relative-age variants.
utils/formatTimestamp.ts now holds the rules — today → time; yesterday /
tomorrow → day word + time; last 6 days → weekday + time; older → date +
time in dateFormatString — plus autoDate / time / date / dateTime styles,
formatDayDivider (full weekday), formatShortAge (room list) and
formatRelativeAge (list rows). useTimestampFormatter binds them to the
settings. 11 unit tests with an injected 'now'.
Visible changes are limited to consistency: 12 h times keep the existing
zero-padded hh:mm A; the a11y label and Created-by line use the user's
date format instead of a fixed long month.

RoomTimeline renders a numeric index window into the live timeline's
event arrays; SDK back-pagination prepends, so any side panel calling
paginateEventTimeline(room.getLiveTimeline()) shifted the visible
messages into the past on the next render and broke at-bottom tracking.
New utils/detachedTimeline.ts builds a timeline set that mirrors the
already-loaded history and paginates independently: a room-registered
filtered set (server-side contains_url / types filter) when the filter
is usable, else a private EventTimelineSet seeded from the live timeline.
useRoomMediaTimeline wraps it for the gallery (live events + redactions
handled); RoomActivityLog uses a type filter (safe in encrypted rooms);
ExportRoomHistory pages a private set so a full export no longer parks
thousands of events in the live timeline.
Verified with Playwright against a local Synapse in a 400-message plain
room and a 200-message encrypted room: timeline stays at the bottom
through gallery pages, activity load-more and a full export; live
messages keep auto-scrolling; all media found in both rooms.
Also adds scripts/dev-homeserver.sh + scripts/dev-seed.py (local
throwaway Synapse for driving the real UI) and documents them.
Closes#163

Wave-3 bug-hunt fixes (findings in LOTUS_TODO), reviewed + gate-green:
- 🔴 ACL editor [H1–H4]: block saving an empty allow-list (was a one-click
federation brick), warn on self-ban (case-insensitive glob match of
mx.getDomain() vs allow/deny), accept real globs (1.2.3.*, *.evil.*), and
gate Save behind a confirm dialog.
- 🔴 [P1] room context menu no longer acts on the wrong room after a live
reorder (key by roomId, not list index). 🔴 [P2] status writes no longer
force presence to online over Invisible/DND (shared presenceStateFromSetting).
- 🟠 [P3] timed mutes restored on boot; [P4] custom-status auto-clear now fires
(always-mounted StatusExpiryMonitor); [P5] timezone also PUT to the m.tz
profile field so it's visible to others; [H6] RoomInsights single-pass
min/max (was Math.min(...spread) stack overflow); [H7/H8] mod-log labels.
- 🟡 [P6/P7] favorites collapse+filter, [P8] charCount reset, [P9] DM preview
refresh on decrypt; theming [T-P1] lazy decorations, [T-P2] drop the redundant
always-on body animation, [T-P4] live useReducedMotion, [T-P5] decoration key.
- NATIVE-CINNY LAW: notification presets + Powers permissions use folds icons.
DEFERRED: [H5] invite-QR is fetched from api.qrserver.com (third-party leak);
local generation needs a bundled QR lib (not added). tsc/eslint/prettier clean,
build OK, 677 tests.

Schedule message: modal now always opens (even with empty composer);
includes its own message textarea pre-filled from editor content;
removed null-content early-return guard from handleScheduleClick;
fixed error text to use color.Critical.Main not CSS var
Image compression: removed 200KB size threshold — checkbox now shows
for all JPEG/PNG uploads (not just large ones); 'no significant saving'
message handles already-small files gracefully
Activity log: auto-paginate on mount — state events are absent from
initial sync window, so the log was always empty until Load More was
clicked manually
Insights summary: Text size H4→H5 with toLocaleString() formatting and
overflow:ellipsis so large numbers don't push tiles off screen
Bookmarks panel: replaced var(--bg-*) CSS vars (undefined in folds
themes) with color.Surface/SurfaceVariant/Primary folds tokens; added
left accent border on message preview block, count badge, clear button
in search, improved empty state, cleaner button hierarchy
