deps: brace-expansion 1.1.18 → 1.1.21 (GHSA-q2hr-2g5m-vwhr and two related DoS advisories)

npm audit --omit=dev started failing every PR: brace-expansion <=1.1.20
(via @eslint/eslintrc → minimatch 3) has three high-severity DoS
advisories. Lockfile-only patch bump; nothing else changes.

+
+> [!TIP]
+> We recommend using a version manager as versions change very quickly.
+> You will likely need to switch between multiple Node.js versions based
+> on the needs of different projects you're working on. [NVM-windows]
+> on Windows and [nvm] on Linux/macOS are pretty good choices. Recommended
+> nodejs version is Krypton LTS (v24.13.1).

+
+Execute the following commands to start a development server:
+
+```sh
+npm ci # Installs all dependencies
+npm start # Serve a development version
+```
+
+To build the app:
+
+```sh
+npm run build # Compiles the app into the dist/ directory
+```
+
+To commit changes:
+
+```sh
+npm run commit
+```
+
+## Running with Docker
+
+This repository includes a Dockerfile, which builds the application from
+source and serves it with Nginx on port 80. To use this locally, you can
+build the container like so:
+
+```
+docker build -t cinny:latest .
+```
+
+You can then run the container you've built with a command similar to this:
+
+```
+docker run -p 8080:80 cinny:latest
+```
+
+This will forward your `localhost` port 8080 to the container's port 80.
+You can visit the app in your browser by navigating to `http://localhost:8080`.

-# HANDOFF — Forking & Self-Building Element Call ("Lotus Call")
-
-> **Audience:** a fresh Claude/engineer session with **no prior context** on this
-> project. Read this top-to-bottom before touching anything. This document is the
-> single source of truth for the Element Call (EC) fork initiative.
->
-> **Status:** **PHASE 0–2 IMPLEMENTED (build-verified, not yet live-tested)**
-> (2026-06-30). The fork exists, builds, is published, and cinny consumes it
-> (Phase 0/1). **All 7 Phase-2 EC features are implemented on the fork's `lotus`
-> branch**, each additive + flag-gated, build+typecheck-clean, per-feature
-> reviewed (+ a holistic multi-agent review), and pushed. **None are live-tested
-> yet** — every one needs the `LOTUS_TESTING.md` §D sweep, and the **cinny host
-> side must be wired** (set flags / send actions / handle call_state) — see §12.
-> See **§9** Phase 0/1 results, **§10** cutover, **§11** Phase-2 seams, **§12**
-> Phase-2 status + cinny integration checklist. Created 2026-06 from `LotusGuild/cinny`.
-
----
-
-## 9. Phase 0 Results (verified 2026-06-29)
-
-**Decisions taken with the user:** scope = Phase 0 recon; consumption model =
-**private npm package** (§5 option 1). Recommended registry = **Gitea's built-in
-npm registry** (`code.lotusguild.org`) — zero new infra.
-
-### 9.1 Version → tag → commit mapping (LOCKED)
-
-| Source                                               | Value                                      |
-| :--------------------------------------------------- | :----------------------------------------- |
-| cinny `package.json` pin                             | `@element-hq/element-call-embedded@0.20.1` |
-| Bundle self-report (`VITE_APP_VERSION`/`appVersion`) | `embedded-v0.20.1`                         |
-| npm registry `gitHead` for 0.20.1                    | `2d74c48151d9edc01c65a22a91478aac81bf24d0` |
-| GitHub tag `v0.20.1` → commit                        | `2d74c48…` ✅ **same commit**              |
-
-→ **Fork from upstream tag `v0.20.1` (commit `2d74c48`).** The embedded package
-version equals the element-call release tag; repo `package.json` version is
-`0.0.0` and the real version is stamped at publish time from the tag.
-
-### 9.2 The shipped npm dist is a CLEAN upstream build
-
-No `lotus`/`denoise`/`rnnoise` strings anywhere in
-`node_modules/@element-hq/element-call-embedded/dist`. **All Lotus customization
-(denoise shim) is injected at cinny build time, not baked into the package** — so
-swapping the source does not disturb cinny's denoise injection layer. The
-ringtone/reaction assets (`baduntss`, `cat`, `clap`, `call_declined`, …) are
-upstream EC's own, not ours.
-
-### 9.3 Build toolchain & mechanism
-
-- **Node `24`** (`.node-version`), **pnpm `10.33.0`** (`packageManager` field,
-  via corepack).
-- Build: **`pnpm run build:embedded`** = `vite build --config
-vite-embedded.config.ts` with `NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=16384`.
-- Output dir is **repo-root `dist/`**; CI stages it into **`embedded/web/dist`**
-  (the `embedded/web/` dir holds the publish template: `package.json`, README,
-  both LICENSE files).
-- Publish workflow upstream = `.github/workflows/publish-embedded-packages.yaml`:
-  builds → `npm version <tag> --no-git-tag-version` → `npm publish --provenance
---access public` to npmjs as `@element-hq/element-call-embedded`. (Also
-  Android/Maven + iOS/SwiftPM — irrelevant; we are web-only.)
-
-### 9.4 Build reproduction — PARITY CONFIRMED
-
-Cloned `element-call@v0.20.1` to `/root/code/element-call` (shallow), built with
-isolated Node 24 / pnpm 10.33.0 (system Node 20 / cinny untouched). Result vs the
-shipped npm dist:
-
-- **137 of 147 files byte-identical** (same Vite content-hash): all CSS, fonts,
-  wasm, audio, JSON locale files, and `IndexedDBWorker`.
-- **Only 5 JS chunks differ** (`index`, `pako.esm`, `polyfill-force`,
-  `rust-crypto`, `spa`) — **cause isolated to the version define**: our local
-  build baked `appVersion:\`dev\``(because`VITE_APP_VERSION`was unset) vs the
-npm build's`appVersion:\`embedded-v0.20.1\``. `index.html` is identical modulo
-  the hashed asset filenames. **Benign** — our CI sets the version from the git
-  tag, so a tagged CI build will match.
-
-### 9.5 Fork CI (drafted)
-
-`.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` is staged in the clone (models cinny's
-`.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` + upstream's publish flow). Linux-only (`ubuntu-latest`)
-— the Windows worker is for cinny-desktop/Tauri, not the EC web bundle. Build job
-on PR/push to `lotus`; publish job on `v*` tag → `@lotusguild/element-call-embedded`
-to the Gitea npm registry (needs `secrets.GITEA_NPM_TOKEN`).
-
-### 9.6 Phase 1 — DONE (2026-06-29)
-
-1. ✅ **Fork repo live:** `code.lotusguild.org/LotusGuild/element-call` (public,
-   AGPL), default branch `lotus`, full history (7018 commits) + tag `v0.20.1`.
-   Branch `lotus` = `v0.20.1` + 2-file diff (CI workflow + embedded package
-   rename).
-2. ✅ **Package published:** `@lotusguild/element-call-embedded@0.20.1` on the
-   Gitea npm registry (published manually from the version-faithful build while
-   the admin token was available). **Publicly readable** (unauth `npm install`
-   works → devs/CI need no token to consume; only publishing needs one).
-3. ✅ **cinny wired & built clean** (Node 24): `.npmrc` scope line +
-   `package.json` dep + `vite.config.js` `viteStaticCopy` src. `npm install`
-   swapped the package (resolved from Gitea), `npm run build` succeeded,
-   `dist/public/element-call/` populated, bundle reports `appVersion:
-embedded-v0.20.1`, **denoise shim injected + all denoise assets copied**
-   (injection layer unchanged). **These cinny edits are staged in the working
-   tree, NOT committed/pushed** — pushing triggers CI → desktop → deploy, so it's
-   gated on the §D live test (see §10).
-
-### 9.8 Reproducibility note (important)
-
-A from-source rebuild is **NOT byte-identical** to upstream's npm tarball.
-137/147 files match exactly (CSS, fonts, wasm, audio, worker); the 5 JS chunks
-(`index`, `pako.esm`, `polyfill-force`, `rust-crypto`, `spa`) differ because the
-rolldown/oxc **minifier mangles export names differently** across build
-environments (and the version-define is one input). This is normal and benign —
-the code is functionally equivalent. **Do not chase byte-parity; the §D live call
-test is the real parity gate.**
-
-### 9.9 Remaining follow-ups (not blocking the cutover)
-
-- **CI publishing:** `.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` publishes on a `v*` tag but needs
-  (a) a Gitea Actions runner for `LotusGuild/element-call`, and (b) a **durable**
-  `GITEA_NPM_TOKEN` repo secret with package read/write (the admin token used for
-  the manual publish is being deleted, so it was deliberately NOT baked in). Until
-  then, publishing is manual (`npm version <tag>` in `embedded/web` →
-  `npm publish`).
-- Decide rebase cadence vs upstream (0.20.2 / 0.20.3 already out — see §9.1).
-
-### 9.7 Ready-to-apply artifacts (staged 2026-06-29)
-
-**Fork side — already committed** on branch `lotus` in `/root/code/element-call`
-(remote `lotus` = `code.lotusguild.org/LotusGuild/element-call.git`, push deferred
-until the repo exists). Minimal 2-file diff vs tag `v0.20.1`:
-`.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` (new) + `embedded/web/package.json` (rename to
-`@lotusguild/element-call-embedded`). Push with:
-`git push -u lotus lotus && git push lotus v0.20.1` (and tag `v0.20.1` on our side
-to trigger the first publish, or push our own `v0.20.1` tag).
-
-**cinny side — NOT yet applied** (applying before the package is published breaks
-`npm ci`). Exactly 3 edits + a lockfile regen:
-
-1. `.npmrc` — append the scoped-registry line:
-   ```
-   @lotusguild:registry=https://code.lotusguild.org/api/packages/LotusGuild/npm/
-   ```
-   (CI/auth: `//code.lotusguild.org/api/packages/LotusGuild/npm/:_authToken=${GITEA_NPM_TOKEN}`
-   — inject via env in CI, do not commit a plaintext token.)
-2. `package.json:104` —
-   `"@element-hq/element-call-embedded": "0.20.1"` →
-   `"@lotusguild/element-call-embedded": "0.20.1"`.
-3. `vite.config.js:25` — `viteStaticCopy` src:
-   `node_modules/@element-hq/element-call-embedded/dist` →
-   `node_modules/@lotusguild/element-call-embedded/dist`.
-   **`stripBase: 4` stays unchanged** — `node_modules/@lotusguild/element-call-embedded/dist`
-   is still exactly 4 leading segments. (Update the comment's path reference too.)
-4. `package-lock.json` — regenerated by `npm install`, not hand-edited (drops the
-   `registry.npmjs.org/@element-hq/...` resolved URL for the Gitea one).
-
-The denoise injection (`lotusDenoise()` in `vite.config.js`) is **unchanged** — it
-keys off `dist/public/element-call/index.html`, which our fork's bundle still
-produces identically (verified: `index.html` byte-identical modulo asset hashes).
-
----
-
-## 0. TL;DR / The Goal
-
-We embed **Element Call** (the Matrix group-VoIP/video app) inside Lotus Chat to
-power voice/video channels. Today we consume Element's **pre-compiled npm
-bundle** and can only steer it from the outside (a limited widget API + fragile
-same-origin DOM hacks). Several in-call problems are **unfixable from outside**
-because they live in EC's compiled JS.
-
-**We want true ownership: fork `element-hq/element-call`, build it from source
-ourselves, host our build, and replace the npm bundle with our fork.** Then
-every in-call behavior becomes editable code.
-
-**This requires standing up a brand-new repo and build pipeline for our EC fork.**
-

-## 1. Why fork? (What we cannot fix today)

-These came out of live testing and are documented in `LOTUS_BUGS.md` →

-| **A5** — focus camera / fullscreen during screenshare  | Can't reliably spotlight a participant's camera while someone screenshares | EC's **layout logic** (screenshare priority, spotlight) is compiled JS we don't control. We currently DOM-click tiles as a hack.                            |

-
-**Bottom line:** the iframe is **same-origin** (we self-host it), so we can read
-and even write its DOM — but we **do not own its source**, so we can't change its
-**behavior/logic**, only poke at its rendered output. Forking removes that wall.
-
----
-
-## 2. How EC is integrated TODAY (the current architecture)
-
-Understand this fully before changing it — the fork must slot into the same
-integration seams.
-
-### 2.1 Where the EC bundle comes from
-
-- npm package: **`@element-hq/element-call-embedded`**, pinned to **`0.20.1`** in
-  `cinny/package.json` (line ~104).
-- It ships a **pre-built `dist/`**. At cinny build time,
-  `vite-plugin-static-copy` copies that `dist/` flat into
-  **`public/element-call/`** (see `cinny/vite.config.js`, the `copyFiles`
-  target with `rename: { stripBase: 4 }` — note the stripBase gotcha documented
-  there; getting this wrong 404s the widget).
-- It is **NOT committed** to git (`git ls-files public/element-call` → 0). It's a
-  build artifact materialized from `node_modules`.
-
-### 2.2 How EC is loaded & controlled
-
-- The widget iframe `src` is **same-origin**:
-  `${BASE_URL}/public/element-call/index.html?<params>` (see
-  `cinny/src/app/plugins/call/CallEmbed.ts`, `getWidget()` /
-  `getIframe()`). Sandbox: `allow-forms allow-scripts allow-same-origin
-allow-popups allow-modals allow-downloads`; `allow="microphone; camera;
-display-capture; autoplay; clipboard-write;"`.
-- **Control surface #1 — the official widget API** (`matrix-widget-api`):
-  `ClientWidgetApi` + a custom `CallWidgetDriver`. This is the robust,
-  version-stable channel (theme change, hangup, capabilities, timeline events).
-  Files: `plugins/call/CallEmbed.ts`, `plugins/call/CallWidgetDriver.ts`,
-  `plugins/call/utils.ts` (capabilities), `plugins/call/CallControl.ts`.
-- **Control surface #2 — same-origin DOM poking** (fragile, version-coupled):
-  reading `iframe.contentDocument` to detect speakers/mute state and
-  `.click()`-ing tiles to focus a camera. Files:
-  `hooks/useCallSpeakers.ts` (reads `[data-muted]`, `[data-video-fit]`),
-  `plugins/call/CallControl.ts` (`focusCameraParticipant` — tile selectors).
-  **These selectors break on every EC version bump.** A fork lets us replace
-  these hacks with real APIs/props.
-- **Control surface #3 — URL params + build-time injection** for our denoise
-  shim (see §6).
-
-### 2.3 Full file inventory (everything that touches EC in cinny)
-
-Plugin / core:
-
-- `src/app/plugins/call/CallEmbed.ts` — iframe creation, widget API wiring, theme sync, hangup, load watchdog/self-heal, denoise URL params.
-- `src/app/plugins/call/CallControl.ts` — control state + **DOM-poking** (`focusCameraParticipant`, spotlight).
-- `src/app/plugins/call/CallControl.tsx` _(call-status variant)_ and `features/call-status/CallControl.tsx`.
-- `src/app/plugins/call/CallWidgetDriver.ts` — widget driver (capabilities, event relay).
-- `src/app/plugins/call/utils.ts` — widget capabilities set.
-- `src/app/plugins/call/hooks.ts`, `index.ts` — plugin exports/hooks.
-- `src/app/state/callEmbed.ts` — jotai atoms for the active embed.
-
-React / UI:
-
-- `src/app/components/CallEmbedProvider.tsx` — the big one: incoming-call ring/banner, RTCNotification + **RTCDecline** listeners, PiP, mute badges, fullscreen, ringtones.
-- `src/app/features/call/CallView.tsx` — prescreen lobby vs joined (the iframe placement target), load-error recovery UI.
-- `src/app/features/call/CallControls.tsx` — in-call control bar (mic/cam/deafen/screenshare/fullscreen/more/PiP).
-- `src/app/features/call/CallMemberCard.tsx` — **lobby** participant roster (this is where `AvatarDecoration` works today; in-call grid is EC's).
-- `src/app/features/call/PrescreenControls.tsx` — join controls.
-- `src/app/features/call-status/*` — `CallStatus.tsx`, `MemberGlance.tsx` (the "Focus camera" menu lives here), `LiveChip.tsx`.
-- `src/app/features/room-nav/RoomNavItem.tsx`, `features/room/Room.tsx`, `features/room/RoomViewHeader.tsx`, `pages/client/space/Space.tsx`, `pages/CallStatusRenderer.tsx`, `pages/Router.tsx` — call entry points / status surfacing.
-
-Hooks:
-
-- `src/app/hooks/useCallEmbed.ts`, `useCall.ts`, `useCallSpeakers.ts` (DOM-poking), `useCallJoinLeaveSounds.ts`, `useAfkAutoMute.ts`.
-
-Build:
-
-- `cinny/vite.config.js` — `copyFiles` (EC dist copy) + `lotusDenoise()` plugin (denoise asset copy + index.html shim injection, in `closeBundle`).
-
-Utils:
-
-- `src/app/utils/ringtones.ts`, `utils/denoisePipeline.ts`, `utils/lotusDenoiseUtils.ts`.
-
----
-
-## 3. Hosting / infra context (the OTHER repo)
-
-There are **two repos**:
-
-1. **`LotusGuild/cinny`** (`/root/code/cinny`) — this Lotus Chat fork. Consumes EC.
-2. **`LotusGuild/matrix`** (`/root/code/matrix`) — the **infra/homeserver** repo.
-   Subdirs: `livekit/` (the SFU EC talks to), `deploy/`, `draupnir/`,
-   `hookshot/`, `landing/`, `matrixbot/`, `systemd/`. Gitea remote
-   `code.lotusguild.org/LotusGuild/matrix`, branch `main`.
-
-EC needs a **LiveKit SFU** + the **livekit-jwt-service**; those live in
-`matrix/livekit/`. A self-hosted EC build must be configured to point at our
-homeserver (`matrix.lotusguild.org` / synapse) and our LiveKit. EC's runtime
-`config.json` (homeserver, livekit URL, feature flags) is part of what we'll own
-once we build it ourselves.
-
-Deployment today: `chat.lotusguild.org` (the cinny web build, which embeds EC at
-`/public/element-call/`). cinny-desktop (`LotusGuild/cinny-desktop`, a Tauri
-wrapper, bumped by cinny CI) embeds the same.
-
----
-
-## 4. The plan (proposed — confirm with the user before executing)
-
-### Decision: **YES, create a new repo.** `LotusGuild/element-call`
-
-Rationale: EC is a large standalone app (React + LiveKit client SDK + matrixRTC +
-its own Vite build + heavy deps). Keep it out of cinny so cinny's build stays
-clean — cinny keeps consuming a **built EC `dist/`**, exactly as today, just
-sourced from **our fork** instead of npm.
-
-### Phase 0 — Recon (no code)
-
-- Fork `github.com/element-hq/element-call` → `LotusGuild/element-call` on Gitea.
-- Pin to the upstream tag matching **0.20.1** (`element-call-embedded` 0.20.1's
-  corresponding `element-call` release) so behavior matches what's shipping now.
-  Verify the embedded-package version ↔ element-call repo tag mapping.
-- Read EC's own build docs: it builds the "embedded" widget bundle (the thing
-  currently published as `@element-hq/element-call-embedded`). Reproduce that
-  build locally and confirm the output matches `public/element-call/` today.
-- **License:** element-call is **AGPL-3.0**, same as Lotus Chat — compatible.
-  Our fork must remain AGPL and publish source.
-
-### Phase 1 — Reproduce current behavior from our fork (parity, no features)
-
-- Build our fork's embedded bundle; wire cinny to consume it instead of the npm
-  package (see §5 for the consumption options). Smoke-test: a call works exactly
-  as today (web + desktop), denoise shim still injects, widget API + theme still
-  work. **No behavior change yet** — this de-risks the swap.
-
-### Phase 2 — Replace the outside hacks with source-level features
-
-Tackle the §1 issues in EC's source:
-
-- **A6:** render avatar decorations as part of the video-tile component
-  (read decoration data we pass in via widget data / URL param / a small bridge).
-- **A5:** fix focus/spotlight + screenshare-coexistence in EC's layout code;
-  expose a clean widget action so cinny can trigger it (kill the DOM `.click()`).
-- **A7:** fix mic re-publish on reconnect; reconcile with our denoise shim (§6) —
-  ideally move denoise INTO the fork as a real audio-processing step instead of a
-  `getUserMedia` monkeypatch.
-- Native Lotus theming/branding at the source (kill the injected-CSS hacks).
-- Then retire the DOM-poking in `useCallSpeakers.ts` / `CallControl.ts` in favor
-  of real widget messages.
-
-### Phase 3 — Maintenance posture
-
-- Decide rebase cadence vs. upstream element-call releases. Keep customizations
-  isolated (feature flags / minimal-diff patches) to ease rebasing.
-- CI in the new repo builds + publishes the embedded dist as a versioned
-  artifact; cinny CI consumes a pinned version.
-
----
-
-## 5. How cinny should consume the fork (pick one — decide with user)
-
-1. **Private npm package** (mirror the current model): our fork's CI publishes
-   `@lotusguild/element-call-embedded` to a registry; cinny depends on it and
-   `viteStaticCopy` keeps working almost unchanged. _Cleanest swap; needs a
-   registry._
-2. **Git submodule + build in cinny CI:** add the fork as a submodule, build it
-   during cinny's build, copy its `dist/` to `public/element-call/`. _No
-   registry; heavier cinny CI._
-3. **CI artifact copy:** fork CI uploads a `dist` tarball; cinny CI downloads a
-   pinned version at build. _Decoupled; needs artifact plumbing._
-
-**Recommendation: Option 1** — it changes the least in cinny (just swap the
-package name in `package.json` + the `viteStaticCopy` src path) and preserves the
-clean cinny/EC separation.
-
----
-
-## 6. The denoise shim — critical interaction (don't break this)
-
-Lotus ships ML noise suppression by **injecting a same-origin pre-init shim into
-EC's `index.html` at build time** (cinny `vite.config.js` → `lotusDenoise()`,
-`closeBundle`). The shim monkeypatches `getUserMedia` **before EC captures the
-mic** and routes audio through RNNoise/Speex/DTLN AudioWorklets, then EC/LiveKit
-publishes the processed track. It's activated via URL params
-(`lotusDenoise=ml&lotusModel=…&lotusGate=…`) set in `CallEmbed.ts`.
-
-- Assets copied to `public/element-call/denoise/` at build (sapphi RNNoise/Speex/
-  gate worklets + `@workadventure/noise-suppression` DTLN tree).
-- Related: `utils/denoisePipeline.ts`, `utils/lotusDenoiseUtils.ts`,
-  `settings/general/DenoiseTester.tsx`, `VoiceMessageRecorder.tsx`.
-- **Known issues:** denoise quality is still poor (tracked separately); and the
-  mic-after-reconnect bug (A7) is suspected to involve the shim's getUserMedia
-  patch handing back a stale processed stream when EC re-acquires the mic.
-
-**Once we own the fork, the right move is to make denoise a first-class
-audio-processing stage inside EC** (not an index.html monkeypatch) — more robust,
-survives reconnects, and removes the build-time injection hack. Until then, the
-fork's `index.html` must remain injectable the same way, or the shim must be
-re-homed into the fork.
-

-## 7. Doc-accuracy notes / corrections for the new session
-
-- `LOTUS_TODO.md` (~line 533) calls EC a **"cross-origin iframe"** — **outdated.**
-  EC is **same-origin** today (self-hosted under our domain;
-  `iframe.sandbox` includes `allow-same-origin`; we read `contentDocument`), and
-  **as of 2026-06-29 we own the fork's source** (`@lotusguild/element-call-embedded`).
-  The _practical_ point it made still holds _until we ship the audio-inject API_:
-  **LiveKit's `LocalAudioTrack` lives in EC's module scope**, not on `window`, so
-  cinny can't reach it even same-origin — which is why the in-call soundboard had
-  to be local-playback-only. **The fork removes this wall:** EC can expose a real
-  `io.lotus.inject_audio` widget action (Phase 2) that mixes into the published
-  track from inside its own module scope.
-- `LOTUS_FEATURES.md` documents the EC upgrade history (0.16.3 → 0.19.4 →
-  0.20.1), the dark-mode CSS injection, and AFK auto-mute — all relevant prior
-  art for what the fork must preserve.
-- `LOTUS_TESTING.md` §D is the **EC regression sweep** to re-run after the fork
-  swap (Phase 1 parity check).
-

-
-## 8. First actions for the new session
-
-1. Read this file, then skim §2.3's files in `cinny` to internalize the seams.
-2. Confirm with the user: new repo name, consumption model (§5), rebase cadence.
-3. Phase 0: fork element-call, map 0.20.1 ↔ element-call tag, reproduce the
-   embedded build locally, diff against `public/element-call/`.
-4. Phase 1: wire cinny to the fork, run `LOTUS_TESTING.md` §D parity sweep.
-5. Only then start Phase 2 features (A5/A6/A7, theming, denoise-in-source).
-
-**Cross-references:** `LOTUS_BUGS.md` (EC limitations + verify queue),
-`LOTUS_TODO.md` (denoise/soundboard constraints), `LOTUS_FEATURES.md` (EC history),
-`LOTUS_TESTING.md` §D (regression sweep). Infra: `/root/code/matrix` (`livekit/`,
-`deploy/`).
-
----
-
-## 10. Live cutover — the remaining steps (Phase 1 finish)
-
-The fork is published and cinny builds against it locally (§9.6). What's left to
-go live:
-
-1. **Run `LOTUS_TESTING.md` §D** against a local cinny build (`npm run build` is
-   already proven; serve `dist/` or `npm run dev`). Verify a real call: join,
-   mic/cam, screenshare, theme sync, denoise on, widget hangup — web first.
-2. **Commit the cinny edits** (currently staged, uncommitted in the working tree):
-   `.npmrc`, `package.json`, `package-lock.json`, `vite.config.js`. Suggested
-   message: `chore(call): consume self-built @lotusguild/element-call-embedded`.
-3. **Push to `lotus`** → cinny CI builds, then `trigger-desktop` bumps
-   cinny-desktop → Tauri release. Re-run §D on **cinny-desktop** (the path where
-   the old `stripBase` bug bit — verify the widget loads, not a 404).
-4. Only then start **Phase 2** (A5/A6/A7, theming, denoise-in-source).

-## 11. Phase 2 — implementation seams (mapped 2026-06-29)
-
-The exact integration points for each Phase 2 item, found by reading the EC fork
-
-- cinny source. **All of these are media-path / in-call features that cannot be
-  functionally verified without a live Matrix + LiveKit call** — implement each as
-  a minimal, **feature-flagged, additive** diff (no behavior change unless cinny
-  opts in), build-verify the fork (`pnpm build:embedded`, ~15s) AND cinny
-  (`npm run build`), then gate shipping on `LOTUS_TESTING.md` §D.
-
-**Shared widget channel (the backbone for #2/#3/#4/#7):**
-
-- EC→cinny: `widget.api.transport.send("io.lotus.<x>", data)` (see
-  `element-call/src/widget.ts`).
-- cinny→EC actions: add the action name to the `lazyActions` allow-list in
-  `widget.ts` (the array at ~L101) and handle it in EC; cinny sends via
-  `this.call.transport.send(...)`.
-- cinny receives EC→cinny actions via the existing `listenAction(type, cb)`
-  helper in `plugins/call/CallEmbed.ts:626` (auto-replies `{}` so the transport
-  doesn't time out — same pattern as `io.element.device_mute`).
-
-**#2 mute/speaker events** — Source: subscribe to `vm.userMedia$`
-(`CallViewModel`), per member `speaking$` + `audioEnabled$`
-(`state/media/UserMediaViewModel.ts:47-48`); aggregate and
-`transport.send("io.lotus.call_state", {participants:[{id,speaking,audioEnabled}]})`.
-Mount in `room/InCallView.tsx` via `useEffect` guarded by `widget !== null`.
-cinny: `listenAction("io.lotus.call_state")` in `CallEmbed.ts`, feed
-`hooks/useCallSpeakers.ts` → delete its `contentDocument` `[data-muted]` /
-`[data-video-fit]` scrape. _Additive, low risk._
-
-**#4 spotlight/focus** — EC: add `io.lotus.focus_participant` to the `lazyActions`
-list (`widget.ts`), drive `vm`'s spotlight (`spotlightSpeaker$` /
-`spotlight$` in `CallViewModel.ts:898/1001`) to pin a given identity, coexisting
-with `hasRemoteScreenShares$` (L1008). cinny: replace
-`CallControl.ts` `focusCameraParticipant` `.click()` walk with
-`transport.send("io.lotus.focus_participant", {userId})`. _Additive, low risk._
-
-**#3 audio-inject** — EC: add `io.lotus.inject_audio` action; mix an
-`AudioBufferSourceNode` into the published mic track. The local publish path is
-`state/CallViewModel/localMember/Publisher.ts` + `LocalMember.ts` (LiveKit
-`localParticipant`); create a `MediaStreamAudioDestinationNode`, mix mic + clip,
-`replaceTrack`. cinny soundboard calls the action instead of local-only playback.
-_Medium; touches publish path → live-test carefully._
-
-**#1 denoise-in-source** — replace the cinny `lotusDenoise()` `getUserMedia`
-monkeypatch with a real processing stage in EC's mic capture
-(`Publisher.ts`/`LocalMember.ts`; note EC has a `TrackProcessorContext` +
-`BlurBackgroundTransformer` precedent in `livekit/`). EC re-runs it on every
-(re)publish → fixes A7. Remove `vite.config.js` `lotusDenoise()` + URL params in
-`CallEmbed.ts`; move `denoise/` assets into the fork. _Highest value, highest
-risk — most live testing._
-
-**#5 theming** — add a Lotus/TDS theme in EC's theme system (`src/useTheme.ts` +
-EC theme tokens / CSS); driven by the existing `setTheme()` channel cinny already
-calls (`CallEmbed.ts:277`). Bake transparent background. Delete cinny's
-`applyStyles()` injection + `background:none !important`. _Medium._
-
-**#6 in-call decorations** — render the decoration APNG in EC's tile component
-(`tile/GridTile.tsx`); pass slugs via widget member data. cinny already has the
-decoration data + `AvatarDecoration` (lobby `CallMemberCard.tsx`). _Medium-Large._
-
-**#7 quality controls** — set audio `maxBitrate` via
-`RTCRtpSender.setParameters` and screenshare `getDisplayMedia` constraints in
-EC's publish path (`Publisher.ts`); configurable via `config.json` / a widget
-message. Keep the server `voice-limit-guard` as enforcement. _Medium._
-
-**Rollback:** revert the 4 cinny files (restores `@element-hq/...@0.20.1` from
-npmjs). The fork repo/package can stay; nothing else depends on it until pushed.
-
-### Local repro/build environment (this session, 2026-06-29)
-
-- Upstream cloned + our `lotus` branch at `/root/code/element-call` (remote
-  `lotus` → Gitea; origin → github upstream, now un-shallowed/full history).
-- Isolated **Node 24.18.0** lives in the session scratchpad (system Node is 20);
-  cinny's `.node-version` is `24.13.1`, so use Node 24 to build cinny too.
-- Build the embedded bundle: in `/root/code/element-call`, with Node 24 + pnpm
-  10.33.0 on PATH, `VITE_APP_VERSION=embedded-v0.20.1 pnpm run build:embedded`
-  → output in `dist/`; stage to `embedded/web/dist` before publishing.
-

-
-## 12. Phase 2 — IMPLEMENTED on the fork (2026-06-30)
-
-All 7 EC features are on the `lotus` branch of `LotusGuild/element-call`, each
-**additive + feature-flagged** (a vanilla call with no `lotus*` params / no Lotus
-actions behaves exactly like upstream), build + `tsc` clean, per-feature reviewed
-(fixes applied) and holistically reviewed. **Not yet live-tested** — all need the
-`LOTUS_TESTING.md` §D sweep.
-
-Fork modules live under `element-call/src/lotus/*`; mounts are `useEffect`s in
-`src/room/InCallView.tsx`. Custom widget actions are in `src/lotus/lotusActions.ts`
-(toWidget ones allow-listed in `src/widget.ts`).

-
-**Security hardening applied** (holistic audit): `lotusDenoiseBase` forced

-via a crafted link); audio-inject gated behind `lotusAudioInject=1`; decoration
-roster capped. Only `https`/`blob` URLs accepted for inject/decoration assets.
-
-### 12.1 cinny host integration checklist (REQUIRED to light these up)
-
-> ✅ **STATUS (2026-06): COMPLETE.** All items below are shipped. call_state,
-> focus_participant, decorations, and transparent background are active; the
-> in-source denoise cutover is done (flag `lotusDenoiseSource=1`, **all four**
-> models in-source); and the two formerly-dormant capabilities now have cinny
-> UI — **soundboard** (`io.lotus.inject_audio`, P5-15) and **quality controls +
-> room permissions** (`io.lotus.set_quality` + `io.lotus.room_quality`, P5-31,
-> with server-side enforcement in `LotusGuild/matrix`). See `LOTUS_FEATURES.md`
-> → "Element Call — Self-Built Fork". The checklist is kept below as the record
-> of what was wired. (One open denoise item tracked separately: the "Series
-> Suppression" native-NS toggle is not wired to the real call path.)
-
-The EC side is additive and dormant until cinny opts in. Host work (in
-`src/app/plugins/call/CallEmbed.ts` unless noted) — **done**:
-
-> ⚠️ **CRITICAL TIMING (protocol audit F1):** only send `io.lotus.*` **toWidget**
-> actions (#3 focus, #6 decorations, #7 quality, audio-inject) **after** the call
-> is joined (`CallEmbed.onCallJoined` / `this.joined`). Those actions are
-> allow-listed at EC app-init (so `preventDefault` suppresses the auto-error)
-> but their handlers only mount with `InCallView` (post-join). Sending earlier
-> leaves the host's `transport.send` pending until the **10s timeout**. Queue and
-> flush on join, or no-op before join.
->
-> Also: **F3 (RESOLVED)** — all four models (`rnnoise`/`speex`/`dtln`/
-> `deepfilternet`) are now implemented in-source in `lotusDenoiseProcessor.ts`;
-> the picker offers all four. **F4** — cinny no longer forwards a native-NS flag
-> in the `ml` branch (the "Series Suppression" toggle is currently a no-op in
-> real calls — open item). **F7** — no widget _capability_ changes needed;
-> custom actions bypass capability checks.
-
-1. **Set the URL flags** on the widget iframe params (the `URLSearchParams` in
-   `CallEmbed`): `lotusCallState=1`, `lotusTransparent=1`/`lotusTheme=1`,
-   `lotusAudioInject=1` as desired. (Denoise sets `lotusDenoiseSource=1` + `lotusModel`/`lotusGate`/`lotusGateThreshold` in the `ml` tier.)
-2. **Ack `io.lotus.call_state`**: add `listenAction('io.lotus.call_state', …)` —
-   without a reply the fork's sends time out every 250ms. Feed the payload into
-   `useCallSpeakers` and RETIRE its `contentDocument` DOM scrape.
-3. **Send actions** via `this.call.transport.send(...)`:
-   `io.lotus.focus_participant` (replace `CallControl.focusCameraParticipant`’s
-   `.click()`), `io.lotus.inject_audio` (from the soundboard), `io.lotus.set_quality`
-   (from quality settings), `io.lotus.decorations` (push the MSC4133 decoration
-   map; resolve mxc→https first).
-4. **#1 denoise cutover**: once verified, STOP injecting the `lotusDenoise()`
-   shim in `cinny/vite.config.js` and remove the `index.html` injection — the
-   fork now does denoise in-source. Keep shipping the `denoise/` assets (the
-   fork loads `./denoise/…` at runtime) until those move into the fork build.
-5. Re-run `LOTUS_TESTING.md` §D for each feature; only then ship.
-
-### 12.2 Holistic multi-agent review — outstanding follow-ups (non-blocking)
-
-Four aspect-agents reviewed the whole fork. Criticals were fixed in-branch (the
-denoise restart-silence/A7 bug; the `lotusDenoiseBase` code-load vector;
-audio-inject opt-in gate; #6 rendering in the wrong component; #7 simulcast cap).
-Remaining, deliberately deferred:
-
-- **Denoise H2 (double-processing):** if cinny is set to `lotusDenoise=ml` while
-  ALSO still injecting its build-time `getUserMedia` shim, audio is denoised
-  twice. The #1 cutover MUST remove the cinny-side injection (it currently has
-  none injected into the iframe — keep it that way). Hard requirement, not code.
-- **Denoise M1 (perf):** in-source uses non-SIMD `rnnoise.wasm`; the reference
-  preferred SIMD with detection. Perf-only; add SIMD detection later.
-- **dtln/deepfilternet (F3): RESOLVED** — all four models
-  (rnnoise/speex/dtln/deepfilternet) are now implemented in
-  `lotusDenoiseProcessor.ts` (faithful port of cinny's `build/lotus-denoise.js`
-  pipeline). This also fixed a real bug (the gate worklet name was `noiseGate`;
-  correct is the hyphenated `noise-gate`) and added per-model sample rates
-  (DTLN 16 kHz, others 48 kHz), context `resume()`, and SIMD wasm selection.
-  Still needs live §D testing per model, and depends on cinny shipping the
-  DTLN (`denoise/workadventure/`) + DeepFilterNet (`denoise/deepfilternet/`)
-  asset trees (it already does).
-- **Rebase-fragility (build agent MED):** the `CallViewModel` spotlight override
-  edits hot upstream lines (renamed `spotlightSpeaker$`→`autoSpotlightSpeaker$`).
-  For cheaper future rebases, refactor it into a `src/lotus/lotusSpotlight.ts`
-  wrapper that takes the upstream stream and returns the overridden one, leaving
-  upstream's definition byte-identical (a single import + two token swaps).
-- **Denoise asset coupling (build agent HIGH):** the fork loads `./denoise/*`
-  shipped by cinny, not by the fork build (documented in the processor). Add an
-  integration smoke-check that `GET …/element-call/denoise/rnnoise.wasm` == 200,
-  and pin the `@sapphi-red/web-noise-suppressor` version both repos expect.
-- **Unconditional effect registration (build agent LOW):** focus/audio-inject/
-  quality/decorations register widget handlers on every embedded call (true
-  no-ops for a non-Lotus host). Intentional; gate behind a coarse `lotus=1` flag
-  if strict zero-footprint is desired.
-- **Privacy (security agent):** decoration/inject URLs accept any `https`; ideally
-  restrict to the homeserver media origin host-side. Call-state exposes
-  userId/deviceId/speaking to the (trusted, same-origin) host — documented.
-
-**Nothing here blocks the §D live test — but every feature still needs it.**
-
-### 12.3 Safe rollout when prod is the only test environment
-
-Every Phase-2 feature is now **dormant by default** — with the flags cinny sets
-today, the fork behaves identically to the parity build (`#1` was decoupled onto
-`lotusDenoiseSource=1` so it no longer collides with the host's `lotusDenoise=ml`
-shim). This enables a low-risk incremental rollout even without a staging env:
-
-1. **Ship dormant first.** Publish the `lotus` branch (e.g. `0.20.1-lotus.1`),
-   bump cinny's pin, deploy. With no Lotus flags set / no Lotus actions sent,
-   this is upstream-equivalent (only inert, holistically-reviewed code runs).
-   "Testing" here = confirm a normal call still works.
-2. **Enable ONE feature at a time**, each independently revertable:
-   - URL-flag features (#2 `lotusCallState`, #5 `lotusTransparent`/`lotusTheme`,
-     #1 `lotusDenoiseSource`): add the flag in `CallEmbed.getWidget`, deploy,
-     test that one feature, roll back just that flag if needed.
-   - Action features (#3,#4,#6,#7): wire the host send + (for #2) the

-3. **#1 denoise cutover is a coordinated 2-step** (do together): set
-   `lotusDenoiseSource=1` AND remove the `lotusDenoise()` shim injection +
-   `lotusDenoise=ml` param in cinny — otherwise audio is denoised twice.

-## 🧩 Element Call source-level items — now actionable via the fork
-
-> 🔱 **[EC-FORK]** **UPDATE 2026-06-30: Phase 2 IMPLEMENTED.** We own and
-> self-build Element Call (`LotusGuild/element-call` →
-> `@lotusguild/element-call-embedded@0.20.1-lotus.1`, cinny wired). A5/A6/A7
-> below are **fixed in the fork** — they are now ⚠️ awaiting **live
-> verification** (`LOTUS_TESTING.md` §D2), not open work. See
-> [`HANDOFF_ELEMENT_CALL_FORK.md`](./HANDOFF_ELEMENT_CALL_FORK.md) §10. Delete each
-> row once verified live.
-
-The in-call participant grid is rendered **inside EC's app** — now editable source
-(previously a prebuilt npm bundle we could only style around). Status of the items
-from testing:
-
-- **A5 — "Focus camera": ⚠️ FIXED in fork, awaiting verify (D2-3).** cinny now
-  sends an `io.lotus.focus_participant` widget action that pins a participant in
-  EC's layout (coexisting with / overriding the screenshare spotlight); the old
-  `.click()`-the-tile DOM hack in `CallControl.ts` is deleted.
-- **A6 — avatar decorations in-call: ⚠️ FIXED in fork, awaiting verify (D2-4).**
-  cinny pushes `io.lotus.decorations` (per-user APNG URLs) and the fork renders
-  them on EC's participant video-tile avatars — not just our pre-join lobby roster.
-- **A7 — mic dead after EC's "Reconnect": ⚠️ FIXED in fork, awaiting verify
-  (D2-1).** Denoise moved into EC's mic-capture/publish pipeline as a first-class
-  LiveKit `TrackProcessor` (flag `lotusDenoiseSource=1`); EC re-runs it on every
-  (re)publish, so reconnects keep denoise alive natively. The build-time
-  `getUserMedia`/`index.html` injection (the root cause) is removed. **Highest
-  blast radius — everyone's mic; verify D2-1 carefully.**

-## 🔴 Open — Actionable
-
-### Calls / Audio
-
-- ~~**N127 — ML denoise shim is never injected in `vite dev`.**~~ **RESOLVED (dissolved by the A7 denoise cutover).** `vite.config.js` no longer injects a getUserMedia shim at all — the forked Element Call runs ML denoise in-source as a LiveKit `TrackProcessor` (activated by `lotusDenoiseSource=1`), so there is no build-time injection that could be missing in dev. Nothing to fix.

-### 🧨 Encryption / E2EE — ⚠️ EXTREME COMPLEXITY · 🧠 PLANNING SESSION REQUIRED · 👤 SENIOR ENGINEER
-
-> **Observed live in prod 2026-06-30** on `chat.lotusguild.org` during a 2-person
-> **Element Call** (E2EE enabled). These span **client rust-crypto (via
-> `matrix-js-sdk@41.6.0-rc.0`) ↔ Synapse ↔ Element Call's MatrixRTC E2EE** and are
-> very likely **interrelated** (see KE-1 → KE-2). Do **not** spot-fix — they need
-> a dedicated cross-system planning session with the homeserver owner. Capture
-> full client console + a synapse-side trace for the same call before starting.
-> **None of these are caused by the EC fork work** (the issues reproduce on the
-> old build; the local mic/denoise path is unrelated to key distribution).
-
-- **KE-1 — One-time-key (OTK) upload conflict storm (CRITICAL, root-cause candidate).**
-  `POST /_matrix/client/v3/keys/upload` returns `400 M_UNKNOWN: One time key
-signed_curve25519:AAAAAAAAAGQ already exists. Old key: {…} new key: {…}` —
-  firing **continuously** (many/sec). The client repeatedly tries to publish an
-  OTK at a key id the server already holds **with a different value**, i.e. the
-  rust-crypto key store and Synapse have **diverged OTK state**. Impact: floods
-  the crypto outgoing-request loop and is the prime suspect for the downstream
-  missing-key failures (no fresh OTKs ⇒ no new Olm sessions ⇒ undecryptable
-  to-device key events). _Investigate:_ device/key-store reset-or-restore
-  mismatch, OTK id-counter desync, RC-SDK (`41.6.0-rc.0`) regression, or a
-  Synapse OTK bug. Repro signature: grep console for `already exists`.
-  **Extreme — planning session.**
-
-- **KE-2 — Element Call media keys not arriving/decrypting → audio & video cut out (CRITICAL).**
-  `MissingKey: missing key at index N for participant @user`, `skipping decryption
-due to missing key`, `MissingKey: key set not found for @user at index 0`, and
-  rust-crypto `WARN … Received an unexpected encrypted to-device event …
-event_type="io.element.call.encryption_keys"`. EC distributes per-participant
-  media keys as **encrypted to-device `io.element.call.encryption_keys`** events;
-  these aren't being received/decrypted in order, so remote LiveKit audio/video
-  can't be decrypted — **this is the "friend's audio cuts out occasionally"
-  symptom.** Almost certainly downstream of **KE-1** (broken Olm sessions). Spans
-  EC's MatrixRTC E2EE + rust-crypto to-device + Synapse. **Extreme — planning
-  session.**
-
-- **KE-3 — Timeline decryption error: missing `algorithm` field (HIGH).**
-  `Error decrypting event (… type=m.room.encrypted …): DecryptionError[msg:
-missing field 'algorithm' at line 1 column 138 …]`. A malformed/legacy
-  encrypted event (or a serialization mismatch in the RC SDK) that rust-crypto
-  can't parse. Lower frequency than KE-1/2 but a distinct decode-path failure —
-  capture the offending event id (`$SASBBzoqj…` seen) and inspect its raw content.
-
-- **KE-4 — MatrixRTC delayed-event / membership timeouts (MEDIUM-HIGH, reliability).**
-  `[MembershipManager] Network local timeout error while sending event, immediate
-retry … AbortError: Restart delayed event timed out before the HS responded`,
-  with repeated `org.matrix.msc4157.update_delayed_event`. MSC4140/4157
-  delayed-event reliability against `matrix.lotusguild.org` — can cause stale/ghost
-  call membership and missed leave events. May be partly **homeserver
-  responsiveness**; correlate with synapse latency/load. Include in the same
-  planning session since it shares the call-reliability + HS-interaction surface.
-
-### Security & Privacy
-
-- **N97 — Access token stored in plaintext `localStorage`** (`state/sessions.ts`), vulnerable to XSS; device ID likewise. Architectural — needs a token-protection / session-storage redesign.
-- **Session writes are non-atomic and not cross-tab synced** (`state/sessions.ts`) — risks inconsistent state / races across tabs.
-- **Persisted PII without encryption:** user status message + expiry (`settings/account/Profile.tsx`), unsent composer drafts (`room/RoomInput.tsx`). Leak risk on shared devices.
-
-### PWA / Offline / Notifications
-
-- **N107 — SW has no `push` handler** — Web Push delivery is entirely non-functional. Needs a `push` listener + a Matrix push-gateway integration.
-- **No app-asset caching strategy** (`src/sw.ts`) — no offline capability.
-- ~~**`manifest: false`** may block PWA install~~ — **verified OK (2026-06):** `index.html` links `/manifest.json`, which exists in `public/` and is copied to `dist/`; VitePWA intentionally doesn't generate one. Not a bug.
-
-### Dependencies & Build
-
-- **`matrix-js-sdk` pinned to a Release Candidate** (`41.6.0-rc.0`); `@atlaskit` and build tools (`vite`, `typescript`, `eslint`) on unstable/experimental pins — review for stable versions; RC SDK is a tree-shaking/bundle-size risk.
-- **Build-time overhead:** `lotusDenoise` does heavy sequential `fs` work in `closeBundle`; `viteStaticCopy` config is complex with redundant renames — could be streamlined.
-
-### Code Hygiene / DevEx
-
-- **Automated test suite — 545 tests across 62 modules, a hard CI gate.** `npm test` runs Node's built-in runner via `tsx` (not vitest — Vite 8 is ahead of vitest's range) and **blocks the build job on failure**. Broad pure-logic coverage: utils (common, regex, sanitize/XSS, time, matrix, matrix-uia, mimeTypes, sort, accentColor, findAndReplace, AsyncSearch, ASCIILexicalTable, keyboard, room, matrix-crypto, featureCheck, syntaxHighlight, imageCompression, user-agent, callSounds), state (settings, sessions, recentSearches, upload, typingMembers, lists, room-list, toast, scheduledMessages, backupRestore, callEmbed/callPreferences, spaceRooms, …), plugins (matrix-to, call/utils, via-servers, bad-words, recent-emoji, custom-emoji, markdown block/inline/utils), OIDC (cs-api, useParsedLoginFlows, oidcState), lotus/avatarDecorations, message-search, search filters. Prevention work has caught + fixed **4 real bugs** (`findAndReplace` infinite-loop; `getSettings` crash-on-load when storage is blocked; `isMacOS` never matching modern Macs; `isMLDenoiseSupported` throwing `ReferenceError` instead of returning false on browsers lacking the `AudioWorkletNode` binding). **Next:** component/integration tests (the untestable-under-tsx DOM/React surface).
-- **Extensive `as any` casts** across `src/` — gradual typing cleanup.
-- **`types/matrix/` mirrors SDK types** instead of importing them — drift risk.
-- **Hardcoded CDN URL** should move to an env var (the decoration CDN is now single-sourced in `avatarDecorations.ts`, but the literal is still in-repo).
-- **`patch-folds.mjs` edits `node_modules` directly** — consider `patch-package`.
-- **Infra docs:** `contrib/nginx` lacks security headers (HSTS/CSP) + uses rewrites over `try_files`; `contrib/caddy` has a placeholder path. CI/CD (`prod-deploy.yml`): sequential deploy, aggressive 1-min Netlify timeout, `package-manager-cache: false`.
-- **README:** keep the fork-sync version + logo path current. (`CONTRIBUTING.md` is intentionally left as upstream Cinny's — not a Lotus concern.)
-- **Architecture notes (low priority):** deep `features/` + `hooks/` nesting, many small coupled hooks, possible dead CSS/components, `SpacingVariant` / `DropTarget` recipe simplification.
-- **Git workflow (forward-looking):** keep commits scoped — past monolithic "fix all bugs" commits and inconsistent prefixes hurt `git bisect`.
-
-### Big Projects
-
-- **#5 — Seasonal themes & chat-background redesign.** Current backgrounds are basic CSS; goal is high-fidelity, research-backed, GPU-accelerated designs (layered `oklch`, `backdrop-filter`, `contain:paint`) with WCAG-AA overlay contrast. Treat each as its own design sprint.

+All five animated backgrounds were rewritten for smoother, more organic motion. Each background drives its own single drift/scroll keyframe (no secondary glow or blink layers):

 ### Message Forwarding
 
 Context menu → **Forward** allows forwarding a message to any room the user is a member of.
 
+### Copy Message Text
+
+Context menu → **Copy Text** copies a message's plain-text body to the clipboard (reply fallback stripped via `trimReplyFromBody`), complementing the existing **Copy Link** (permalink) action. It renders only when the event has a usable text body, so media without a caption doesn't show an empty action.
+
+### On-Device Message Translation
+
+Translate chat messages written in other languages into a language you choose,
+inline in the timeline — running **entirely on your device** so message text
+never leaves it.
+
+- **Per-message translate** — a foreign-language message shows a **Translate**
+  action in its message menu; once translated, the message displays an inline
+  **"Translated from &lt;language&gt; · Show original"** toggle that swaps between
+  the translation and the original text.
+- **Fully on-device / E2EE-preserving** — translation and language detection run
+  through the browser's built-in **Translator** and **Language Detector** APIs
+  (the Chromium on-device AI translation models). Message text is **never** sent
+  to any cloud translation service — no Google / DeepL / Microsoft, not even a
+  self-hosted server — and there is **no network fallback**, so end-to-end
+  encryption is preserved. That privacy guarantee is the whole point of the
+  feature.
+- **Automatic detection** — the language of each message is detected
+  automatically; messages already in your target language are skipped (no
+  Translate action is shown).
+- **Settings (Settings → General → Messages):**
+  - **Translate Messages Into** — your target language (default **English**;
+    ~26 common languages).
+  - **Auto-translate Incoming Messages** (default **off**) — automatically
+    translates foreign-language messages whose on-device language model is
+    already downloaded.
+- **One-time model download** — the first time you translate from a given
+  language, a small on-device model (a few MB) downloads once. Because the
+  browser requires a user gesture for that first download, the initial
+  translation needs a click.
+- **Availability** — Chromium desktop browsers (**Chrome / Edge 138+**) and the
+  **Lotus desktop app** (WebView2 / Chromium). Not available in Firefox, Safari,
+  or mobile browsers; where the APIs are unavailable the feature hides itself and
+  the settings tile shows a note.
+
 ### Draft Persistence
 
 - Composer drafts are stored in `localStorage` keyed by `roomId`
 - Draft is cleared on successful send
 - The Jotai atom is the primary source of truth; `localStorage` is only read on room mount
+- **Room-nav draft indicator**: a subtle green dot (the composer's shared `DraftDot`, `color.Success.Main`) appears on a room's nav item when it has an unsent message draft (and isn't the open room), so you can see at a glance where you left half-written messages. The dot reuses the composer draft affordance's vocabulary (`role="img"`, aria-label "Unsent draft"). It reacts to the shared draft atom via a memoized `selectAtom(…, hasMsgDraft)` (re-renders only when the flag flips; the atom is written on room-leave, not per keystroke). `useHydrateMsgDrafts` (mounted in `ClientNonUIFeatures`) pre-fills the draft atoms from `draft-msg-*` localStorage on startup so indicators are correct after a reload. Emptiness check shared via the pure, unit-tested `hasMsgDraft` (`src/app/utils/draft.ts`), also used by the composer's `DraftIndicator`.
 
 ### Message Search Date Range
 
-- The search panel accepts `from_ts` and `to_ts` values (epoch milliseconds) passed to the search API
+- The search panel accepts `from_ts` and `to_ts` values (epoch milliseconds); server results are filtered client-side by `origin_server_ts` (they are not Matrix filter fields), matching the local encrypted-room search
 - A chip shows the active date range with an **×** button to clear it
 
+### Encrypted Search Cache (P4-8, opt-in)
+
+Persistent local index for encrypted-room search, so coverage survives page reloads instead of requiring re-pagination + re-decryption every session.
+
+- Raw IndexedDB (`lotus-search-cache`): message rows keyed `[roomId, eventId]` + per-room coverage markers; merged into local search results with in-memory-wins dedupe
+- **Opt-in, default OFF** (it stores decrypted text at rest): toggle + "Clear cached index" live in the search panel's Encrypted Rooms section, with the privacy note "Stores decrypted text on this device"
+- Always wiped on logout; any IndexedDB error degrades to a cache-miss (never breaks search)
+- Files: `src/app/utils/searchCache.ts`, `src/app/state/searchCacheEnabled.ts`, `features/message-search/useLocalMessageSearch.ts`
+
+### Math / LaTeX Rendering (P4-4)
+
+KaTeX-rendered math in messages, two paths:
+

+Images and videos can be sent with a caption. The caption and media are sent as a single event (caption = the event `body` when it differs from `filename`).
+
+- **Edit caption**: an image/video you sent shows an **Edit caption** action (quick-actions pencil + message menu). It opens the message editor seeded with the current caption; saving sends an `m.replace` whose `m.new_content` preserves the media (`url`/`info`/encrypted `file`/`filename`) and only changes `body`/`formatted_body`. An empty caption removes it (`body` falls back to `filename`). Gated by `canEditCaption` (`utils/room.ts`) to your own image/video messages that carry an MSC2530 `filename`. Caption edits carry `m.mentions` (an @-mention in a caption notifies) and appear in Edit History (diffed by the word-diff) — even after a caption is removed, the "(edited)" marker remains so history stays reachable. No re-upload — encrypted media keeps its original file/key.
 
 ### Location Sharing
 
-`m.location` events render an inline map tile using the coordinates from the event content.
+`m.location` events render an inline map tile using the coordinates from the event content. The renderer reads the top-level `geo_uri` and **falls back to the MSC3488 `org.matrix.msc3488.location`/`m.location` `uri`**, so locations from clients that send only the new shape still render (previously they showed as broken); an MSC3488 `description`, if present, is shown above the coordinates.
+
+Sharing your location (composer → location button) sends an **MSC3488-compliant** `m.location` event: the legacy `geo_uri` plus the `org.matrix.msc3488.location` (uri), `org.matrix.msc3488.asset` (`m.self`), and `org.matrix.msc3488.ts`/`m.ts` blocks, and a human-readable `body`. This makes Lotus-shared locations render as proper pins on Element and other clients instead of falling back to plain text.

+- **Send now**: the tray's send button fires a pending message immediately via MSC4140 `action: 'send'` (the server dispatches the stored delayed event now, as a normal timeline event — no cancel+retype).

+- **Edit / reschedule**: the tray's edit button re-opens `ScheduleMessageModal` (seeded with the existing body + send-time) to change the text and/or time. Since MSC4140 has no in-place edit, this is implemented as schedule-new-then-cancel-old; the old copy is only removed once the server confirms cancellation, so a failed cancel leaves a visible, cancellable copy rather than losing the message.

Defaults to the option count (unchanged "select all that apply" behavior) until you lower it; the display side already enforces the cap ("Select up to N")

-### Voice Message Playback Speed
+- **Vote / change / clear** in place — sends stable `m.poll.response` (`m.selections`); latest response per voter wins; clearing removes you from the tally. Multi-choice enforces `max_selections` ("Select up to N").
+- **Disclosed vs undisclosed** — undisclosed polls hide counts/percentages/bars (and the vote total) until the poll ends; disclosed polls show live results.
+- **See who voted** — a "Show who voted" toggle (shown only when results are visible, i.e. disclosed live or undisclosed-after-end) reveals the voter names under each answer. The voter list rides the same tally as the counts (`voters: Map<answerId, senderId[]>` populated in `tallyResponses`'s latest-response-per-sender loop), so it can never disagree with the numbers; a re-vote moves the voter, and a cleared vote drops them. Names via `getMemberName`; undisclosed polls stay secret until close.
+- **End a poll** — the poll's creator or a moderator (redact power) can end it via an inline confirm; sends stable `m.poll.end`. Ended polls lock voting, show "Poll closed · Final results", reveal results, and highlight the winner(s) (ties supported). Only responses cast on/before the end event count.
+- **Cross-client** — reads **both** the stable (`m.poll`/`m.id`/`m.selections`) and unstable (`org.matrix.msc3381.poll.*`) wire formats by hand (matrix-js-sdk 41.7.0's poll parsers only speak unstable), and uses the SDK `Poll` model for end-event validation (creator / redact-PL) + before-end response filtering. Polls authored in Element render/vote/end correctly and vice-versa.
+- **Accessibility** — `radiogroup`/`radio` (single, with arrow-key roving) or `group`/`checkbox` (multi) semantics, `aria-checked`/`aria-disabled`, winner announced to AT.

-`AudioContent.tsx` adds a playback speed cycle button to voice message players. Available speeds: `[0.75, 1, 1.5, 2]×`. A `useEffect` sets `audioElement.playbackRate` whenever the speed selection changes.
+### Voice Message Playback (waveform + speed)
+
+`AudioContent.tsx` is the shared audio player (timeline + Media Gallery Audio tab):
+
+- **Waveform scrubbing** — voice messages carry an MSC1767 waveform (`org.matrix.msc1767.audio.waveform`, sent by the recorder). Playback renders it as bars that fill with the accent as the clip plays (TDS green under Lotus Terminal), and the waveform **is** the seek control — click, drag, or keyboard (arrows ±5s, Home/End) to scrub (`role="slider"`, ARIA value text). Threaded through `MAudio` (`MsgTypeRenderers.tsx`) + passed directly by the gallery. Regular audio with no waveform keeps the plain seek bar.
+- **Playback speed** — a cycle button (`[0.75, 1, 1.5, 2]×`); a `useEffect` sets `audioElement.playbackRate` and re-applies it on (re)load (the browser resets it).
+- **Recording pause / resume** — `VoiceMessageRecorder.tsx` supports a `paused` state via `MediaRecorder.pause()/resume()`, so you can pause mid-recording and continue without a gap. The duration timer accumulates only active-recording time (paused time is excluded), the waveform/meters freeze while paused and the record dot stops pulsing, and the finish button (which advances to the preview/review step) is a checkmark distinct from the Pause control.

+## Threads (P3-8)
+
+Full threaded-conversation support (`m.thread`, matrix-js-sdk `threadSupport`), Element-consistent.
+
+### Thread Panel
+
+A right-side drawer (mirrors the members drawer; fullscreen on mobile) with the thread's root message emphasized at top, an "N replies" divider, the full reply timeline (virtualized, back-paginates via `/relations`, decrypts E2EE threads), reactions/edits/redactions, and its own composer. Open it from **Reply in Thread** in the message menu, a reply's thread indicator, or a summary chip; close with **×** or Escape. Reading the panel sends threaded read receipts so per-thread unread counts clear.
+
+### Threads List Panel
+
+A room-level overview of **all** threads, opened from a **Threads** button (🧵) in the room header (mirrors the gallery/widgets toggles). Each row shows the root sender + message snippet, an unread dot, a meta line ("N replies · last reply 5m ago") and a **participant avatar pile**. A segmented **filter** (All / Unread / Participating — the latter via `thread.hasCurrentUserParticipated`) and **sort** (Recent / Oldest, by last-reply time) sit in the toolbar; both persist in localStorage (`cinny_threads_filter_v1` / `cinny_threads_sort_v1`). Clicking a row opens the existing single-thread `ThreadPanel` (reuses `setActiveThreadId`), and reading it clears the row's unread badge live. The list stays live via `ThreadEvent.New/NewReply/Update/Delete` + `RoomEvent.UnreadNotifications` and is virtualized for busy rooms.
+
+- Files: `features/room/thread/ThreadsListPanel.tsx`, `hooks/useRoomThreads.ts` (populates via `room.fetchRoomThreads()` + `room.getThreads()`; last-activity + reply-count + root-edit signature so rows refresh live), `state/threadsList.ts`, pure filter/sort in `utils/threadList.ts` (`filterThreads`/`sortThreads`, unit-tested). Unread mirrors `useThreadSummary`'s logic (`getThreadUnreadNotificationCount`, muted threads zeroed) and renders the app-wide `UnreadBadge` (red for mentions via the Highlight count). Reuses `StackedAvatar`/`useMemberAvatar` for the participant pile and the Bookmarks-panel segmented-control pattern.
+
+### Summary Chips
+
+Root messages in the main timeline show a **"N replies · time"** chip (server-aggregated `m.thread` bundle, or the live Thread once loaded) with an unread badge — threaded replies no longer render inline in the main timeline, so the chip is how conversations stay discoverable.
+
+### Thread Composer
+
+The panel embeds the full composer (uploads, emoji, stickers, GIFs, voice, location, polls) with drafts, reply state, and upload queues **isolated per thread** (`roomId::threadRootId` keys). Replies-to-replies produce spec-correct `m.thread` + `m.in_reply_to` (`is_falling_back: false`). **Slash commands work in threads** — content-transform commands (`/me`, `/notice`, `/shrug`, `/tableflip`, `/unflip`) route into the thread via the normal send path, and room-level commands (`/invite`, `/kick`, …) act on the room; this also matches the command autocomplete, which was already shown in the thread composer. Scheduling is still disabled inside threads (v1).
+
+**↑ to edit last reply**: pressing Up-arrow in the empty thread composer opens the editor on your most recent editable reply _in that thread_ — parity with the main timeline. The thread composer carries a distinct `editableName="ThreadInput"` so the main timeline's global up-arrow handler and the thread's no longer cross-fire (previously the thread composer had the same name, so Up-arrow there wrongly targeted the main timeline's last message).
+
+### Notifications (Slack-style, P4-1)
+
+By default you're notified for a thread reply only when you **participate** in that thread (you've posted in it) or the reply **@mentions** you — other threads accumulate quietly behind their chip badges. Every thread can be overridden from the bell menu in the panel header: **Default (participating) / All replies / Mentions only / Mute**. Modes sync across your devices (`io.lotus.thread_notifications` account data, auto-pruned). Muting a thread silences notifications and sounds, removes the chip's unread badge (a small bell-mute glyph shows instead), and subtracts that thread from the room's sidebar unread badge (client-side — other Matrix clients on the account still count it).
+
+### Under the Hood
+
+- `threadSupport: true` (startClient) partitions thread events into SDK `Thread` timelines; markAsRead sends **unthreaded** receipts so room badges keep clearing
+- Thread replies are notified via exactly one path (room-level `ThreadEvent.NewReply` w/ per-thread dedupe + panel-aware focus suppression); the main timeline notifier is thread-guarded, and room badges refresh live on `RoomEvent.UnreadNotifications`

+
+Links you paste, send, edit, or merely _see_ lose ad/analytics identifiers — `utm_*`, `fbclid`, `gclid`, YouTube `si=`, Amazon `ref=`/`tag=`, X `s=`/`t=`, TikTok `_r`/`_t`, and ~40 more, plus host-scoped rules so e.g. `si` is only removed on YouTube/Spotify. Runs entirely on the device (`src/app/utils/urlTracking.ts`, unit-tested). Wired at paste (re-inserted through Slate so multi-line pastes still split into paragraphs), at send/schedule/edit on both `body` and `formatted_body`, and at render (linkify + explicit `<a href>` in formatted HTML), so links from other clients are cleaned locally too. `matrix.to` and non-http(s) schemes are never touched; Amazon's `th`/`psc` variant selectors are kept.

+
+The syncable subset of Lotus settings (theme, composer toolbar order, notification/quiet-hour preferences, call keys, privacy toggles, …) is mirrored to the `io.lotus.settings` account-data event on the user's own homeserver and applied on every other device.

Rules now: a typable key (letter/digit/Space/…) only toggles deafen in the call view — on any screen with a composer, typing wins; and such keys are never bound system-wide on desktop (`isSafeGlobalToggleKey`: F-keys, numpad, lock/navigation cluster qualify), so the letter `m` typed in Discord or a game can't deafen you either. The tile explains this and suggests an F-key/Numpad key for an everywhere binding.

+A forwarded message used to arrive as if the forwarder had written it. `buildForwardContent` now stamps `io.lotus.forwarded` (`sender`, `origin_server_ts`, `room_id`, `event_id`; forwarding a forward keeps the _original_ stamp) and the timeline (main + threads) renders a reply-style line above the message — **↪ Forwarded from bob in Other Room · 9:05 PM** — which is a button that jumps to the original when you are in the source room; if you are not, it shows only the sender and time (the source room's name is deliberately not shared). Other Matrix clients ignore the key and see the plain content. Component: `src/app/components/message/ForwardedHeader.tsx`.
+
+### Copy Lotus Link — direct permalinks (Gitea #130)
+
+`matrix.to` cannot be pointed at this deployment (its Cinny adapter is hard-coded to `app.cinny.in`; `web-instance[]` only works for Element), so every **Copy Link** (message ⋯ menu, space header menu, sidebar space-tab menu) has a **Copy Lotus Link** beside it that yields `https://chat.lotusguild.org/home/<room>/<event>?viaServers=…` (spaces: `/<space>/`). Helpers in `src/app/plugins/lotus-permalink.ts` (unit-tested). Lotus links pasted into a room render and click like matrix.to links (`toMatrixToHref` in the HTML parser rewrites them into the existing mention pipeline). Supporting fixes: `/home/<room>` for a room you are already in but that lives under a space or in Direct now redirects to its own route instead of a preview card (this is also the form matrix.to → "Continue in Cinny" produces); `?via=a,b` is accepted as an alias of `?viaServers=` (the matrix.to Cinny adapter emits `via`); and a deep link opened while logged out is honoured after an **OIDC/SSO** login too — the OIDC callback reloads at the app root, which previously discarded the stored path (`takeAfterLoginPath` is now consumed by the index route as well as the password flow). matrix.to stays the default, interoperable link and the Share Room QR is unchanged.
+
+### PWA App-Icon Badge (Gitea #154)
+
+When Lotus Chat is installed as a PWA (Android Chrome, desktop Chrome/Edge), the app icon carries a numeric badge via the Badging API (`navigator.setAppBadge`). The number is the same highlight count (mentions/DMs, leaf rooms only) that the tab title shows, so the two can never disagree; it clears when the count reaches zero. Lives in `FaviconUpdater` (`ClientNonUIFeatures.tsx`) next to the title/favicon logic. No-op in a plain browser tab (the API is absent) and under Tauri, where the native `set_badge_count` already owns the badge.
+
 ### Media Gallery
 
 `MediaGallery.tsx` — a right-side drawer for browsing room media.
 
-- Three tabs: **Images**, **Videos**, **Files**
-- Reads already-decrypted events from the room timeline
-- Encrypted images show a lock placeholder rather than an error
-- "Load More" button triggers `mx.paginateEventTimeline()` to fetch older media
+- Four tabs: **Images**, **Videos**, **Audio**, **Files** (each with a live count)
+- **Images/Videos** — a month-grouped grid; tiles decrypt on demand (lazy, near-viewport), open a keyboard-navigable **lightbox** (←/→/Esc, prev/next). Each grid tile has a hover/focus **download** button, and the lightbox header has a **Download** action — both reuse the shared `FileDownloadButton` (full-resolution source, decrypts E2EE media client-side, spinner/✓/retry states), so images and videos can be saved without jumping to the message. On touch (no-hover) devices the tile download button stays visible. In the lightbox, **images support zoom & pan** (scroll wheel or −/+ header buttons, `+`/`-`/`0` keys, double-click or the % chip to toggle 1×↔2×; drag to pan when zoomed) via the shared `useZoom`/`usePan` hooks; zoom resets when navigating to another item.
+- **Audio** — voice messages + audio files (`m.audio`) with an inline player (reuses `AudioContent`: **waveform scrubbing** for voice messages, play/seek/**speed control**; decrypts on play)
+- **Files** — name/size/sender rows with download
+- **Jump to message** — a "Go to message" action on file rows, audio rows, and in the lightbox navigates the timeline to the source event (`useRoomNavigate`) and closes the drawer
+- Encrypted media is decrypted client-side on demand (no lock placeholder); download works for all types
+- **Auto-pagination** — an `IntersectionObserver` sentinel pulls older media as you scroll (manual retry on error). Since Gitea #163 this pages through the gallery's **own timeline set** (`useRoomMediaTimeline` → `utils/detachedTimeline.ts`), never the room's live timeline: unencrypted rooms use a server-side `contains_url` filter (a page is 100 media events, not 100 events), encrypted rooms page raw history into a private set and filter after decrypting. The message list behind the drawer no longer jumps into the past; the Activity log and history Export use the same helper.

+## Localization
+
+Lotus Chat is **English-only for now**, by explicit decision (Sept 2026 audit, #53). The i18next
+mechanism (`i18next-browser-languagedetector` + `public/locales/{en,de}.json`, wired in
+`src/app/i18n.ts`) is real and still used by the ~11 upstream-inherited files that call
+`useTranslation()`, but none of the Lotus-added UI (presence picker, calls/soundboard, avatar
+decorations, seasonal settings, keyboard shortcuts help, toasts, etc.) is routed through it. Letting
+the language detector pick a non-English browser locale therefore produced a UI that was only
+partially translated. `src/app/i18n.ts` now sets `supportedLngs: ['en']` so the whole app renders
+consistently in English regardless of browser locale, while leaving the detector/backend/`de.json`
+in place. Re-enabling another language requires two things: (1) route Lotus strings through
+`useTranslation()`/`public/locales/<lng>.json` like the existing localized files, then (2) drop (or
+extend) `supportedLngs` in `src/app/i18n.ts` — a one-line change.

+
+### System-Wide Voice Hotkeys (cinny-desktop #2)
+
+Push to Talk and Push to Deafen keep working while a game or any other app has focus. The desktop does **not** register a global shortcut (that would swallow the key from every app — a bare `Space` PTT would stop other apps typing spaces); instead, only while a call is joined, a native thread polls `GetAsyncKeyState` for the two configured keys every ~8 ms and emits a `lotus-global-hotkey` DOM event on each press/release transition (`src-tauri/src/native/hotkeys.rs`). `useCallHotkeys` ignores those events while the Lotus window itself has focus (the DOM handlers own that case with their editable-field checks), so nothing double-fires. Windows only — Linux/Wayland has no non-consuming path; `global_hotkeys_supported` reports it and the toggle is hidden outside Tauri. Toggle: **Settings → Calls → Hotkeys Work Outside the Window** (device-local, default on).

+**Deploy:** push to `lotus` → CI → auto-deploy to `chat.lotusguild.org` (~11 min)
+
+> **There is no backlog in this file.** All open work lives in Gitea issues — [cinny](https://code.lotusguild.org/LotusGuild/cinny/issues), [element-call](https://code.lotusguild.org/LotusGuild/element-call/issues), [cinny-desktop](https://code.lotusguild.org/LotusGuild/cinny-desktop/issues), [matrix](https://code.lotusguild.org/LotusGuild/matrix/issues) (infra/CI) — grouped by milestone (`Features 2026-Q4`, `Desktop 2026-Q4`, `Manual QA backlog`, `Desktop QA backlog`, the `Audit 2026-09 · *` set). Shipped features are documented in [LOTUS_FEATURES.md](./LOTUS_FEATURES.md); how to run the automated tests is in [LOTUS_TESTING.md](./LOTUS_TESTING.md). The former `LOTUS_TODO.md` backlog was migrated to issues on 2026-09-17 (full history in git).
+
+This file keeps only what a contributor needs to have open while working: the two design laws, decisions already made, what the server blocks, and the operational reference.
+
+---
+
+## ⚠️ TDS DESIGN LAW — READ BEFORE TOUCHING ANY UI
+
+> **ALL Lotus Terminal Design System (TDS) styling — colors, animations, glows, borders, fonts, spacing — MUST come exclusively from `/root/code/web_template/base.css` CSS variables.**
+> Do NOT hardcode hex values. Do NOT invent new variable names. Canonical tokens: `--lt-accent-orange`, `--lt-accent-cyan`, `--lt-accent-green`, `--lt-glow-*`, `--lt-box-glow-*`, `--lt-border-color`, `--lt-font-mono`. Syntax-highlight token classes: `.tok-kw .tok-str .tok-num .tok-cmt .tok-fn`.
+> Reference patterns: `/root/code/tinker_tickets/` (markdown.js, base.js, ticket.css). Applies to every task without exception.
+> New components must respect both TDS dark (`LotusTerminalTheme`) and TDS light (`LotusTerminalLightTheme`); non-TDS theme work uses vanilla-extract (match `src/lotus-terminal.css.ts`).
+
+## 🧩 NATIVE-CINNY LAW — EVERY FEATURE MUST FEEL LIKE STOCK CINNY
+
+> **Every feature must feel native to upstream Cinny — indistinguishable from what the Cinny team would ship.** Reference: <https://github.com/cinnyapp/cinny>.
+>
+> - **Use the `folds` design system, not bespoke UI** (`Button`, `Chip`, `IconButton`, `Menu`, `MenuItem`, `Dialog`, `Modal`, `Input`, `Switch`, `Badge`, `SettingTile`, `SequenceCard`, …) and folds tokens (`color.*`, `config.space.*`, `config.radii.*`). **Use folds `Icon`/`Icons`, never literal emoji, in UI chrome.** No hardcoded hex/`rgba()`, no invented CSS variables.
+> - **Match Cinny's existing patterns** — find the closest existing component/flow and mirror it before adding UI.
+> - **The ONE exception:** explicit **TDS** features, which follow the TDS Design Law above (opt-in, only in Lotus Terminal mode).
+
+---
+
+## Deferred / dropped (decided — kept for context)
+
+- **[DEFERRED] P5-51** Federated "Identity Contexts" (session isolation) — multi-sprint, touches auth/crypto/storage core; smaller intermediate step = plain multi-account switch. **[DROPPED] P5-52** per-room sync governor — js-sdk can't truly per-room filter `/sync`; only a cosmetic hide. **[DEFERRED] P5-53** local scripting plugin — prefer a declarative automation-rules feature (no arbitrary code). **[DEFERRED] Audit-3** profile banner — MSC4427 open/unmerged; revisit on merge. **[WON'T FIX] P5-50** Windows HW media pipeline (WebRTC decode lives in WebView2; not injectable). **[MOVED] P5-9** LFG → LotusBot `!lfg`.

+
+## 🚫 Blocked Features (server / upstream gated)
+
+Re-run `/_matrix/client/versions` + `unstable_features` after each Synapse upgrade. **Re-checked on 1.157.1 (2026-07-23): no change — all four below are still `false`.** The 1.156.0→1.157.1 delta unblocked nothing (it's a bugfix release; the only feature-bearing release in the gap was 1.156.0, which we were already running).
+
+- **[BLOCKED] Live Location Sharing** (MSC3489 + MSC3672 both `false`) — real-time GPS beacons over the existing static share.
+- **[BLOCKED] Reaction/Relation Redaction** (MSC3892 `false`) — remove a reaction without redacting the parent; current full-redaction fallback is acceptable.
+- **[DONE 2026-07] Room Preview before joining** (MSC3266) — the client was always built (`JoinBeforeNavigate` → `RoomCard` via `mx.getRoomSummary`). The earlier "blocked" flag was a **misdiagnosis**: it tested `/v1/rooms/{id}/summary` (404), but the SDK calls the _unstable_ `im.nheko.summary/summary/{id}` path, which returns **200** with name/topic/members/join_rule. Verified live after the 1.156 upgrade; also added a join-rule/encryption chip + Request-to-join for knock rooms to the preview card.
+- **[BLOCKED] Thread Subscriptions** (MSC4306 `false`) — "Follow thread" button (depends on the shipped Thread Panel).

+- **MSC ON** (re-dumped live from `/_matrix/client/versions` on 1.157.1): `msc4140` · `msc3771` · `msc3440.stable` · `msc4133.stable` · `simplified_msc3575` · `msc4222` · `msc3266` (room summary live at unstable `im.nheko.summary/summary/{id}` — 200; the `/v1/rooms/{id}/summary` path is still 404) · `msc3401_matrix_rtc` · `msc2285.stable` · `msc3827.stable` · `msc3981` · `msc4380.stable` · `msc4445` · `msc2659.stable` · `msc2666` · `msc2432` · `e2e_cross_signing` · `label_based_filtering`. **OFF/blocked:** `msc4306` · `msc3882` · `msc3912` · `msc4155` · `msc3489`/`msc3672` · `msc3892` · `msc4028` · `msc4069` · `msc4108` · `msc3391` · `msc4354` (sticky events — **deliberately off**, see the Matrix 2.0 section above) · `msc4143` (RTC foci — **not a gap**: LiveKit is discovered via `.well-known` `org.matrix.msc4143.rtc_foci`, confirmed live, not this flag).
+- **Dead client code:** Synapse 1.157.0 **removed** `msc3861` (MAS auth delegation) entirely — the ~6 `msc3861`/`msc2965` references in `src/` can never activate against this homeserver (we auth via Authelia `oidc_providers`). Harmless, but cleanup material.
+- **Live endpoints:** Report User (MSC4260) **200** ✅ · Report Room (MSC4151) ✅.
+- **Homeserver access (audits):** Synapse = LXC 151 (`pct exec 151 -- bash`), config `/etc/matrix-synapse/homeserver.yaml`. Web deploy = LXC 106. Voice guard = `voice-limit-guard.py` on LXC 151.
+- **SDK notes:** no arbitrary profile-field methods (use `mx.http.authedRequest()` for MSC4133); js-sdk can't per-room filter `/sync`; sanitizer strips `<math>`/MathML; SW exists at `src/sw.ts`; `getMatrixToRoom()` builds invite URLs; EC audio-inject unblocked via the fork's `io.lotus.inject_audio`.

+### Element Call fork — operational reference
+
+Fork = `LotusGuild/element-call` (branch `lotus`, upstream base **v0.25.0** since the 2026-09 sync — was v0.20.1); cinny consumes the npm package `@lotusguild/element-call-embedded` (built bundle copied into `public/element-call/`).
+
+**Toolchain (upstream-driven, accepted 2026-09):** Node ≥ 22.13 (`.node-version` = 24) and **pnpm 11**, installed directly (`npm i -g pnpm@<packageManager version>`, currently 11.21.0) — **not** via `corepack enable`: `matrix-js-sdk` is a git dependency pnpm builds from source, and its own devEngines pins pnpm 11.9.0; a corepack-shimmed pnpm refuses to switch for that nested install and `pnpm install` fails (fork CI run #1854). pnpm 10 rejects the lockfile and Node 20 cannot build. Lint is **oxlint + oxfmt** (upstream dropped eslint/prettier in v0.25.0): `pnpm lint` (tsc + oxlint + knip) and `pnpm format:check` / `pnpm format`. `matrix-js-sdk` is pinned to a `matrix-org/matrix-js-sdk#develop` commit in the lockfile, as upstream ships it. Fork CI (`.gitea/workflows/ci.yml`) hard-gates lint + format + `pnpm test:unit` before build, with `concurrency: cancel-in-progress`.
+
+**Publish a new version (CI on tag push; needs the `NPM_PUBLISH_TOKEN` org secret):** the published version is derived from the git tag — bump `embedded/web/package.json` (currently `0.25.0-lotus.12`, published by CI; the secret is `NPM_PUBLISH_TOKEN`, names starting `GITEA_` are reserved), push `lotus`, then `git push lotus v0.25.0-lotus.1`; the `publish` job builds and publishes to the Gitea registry. Always push (never delete) the annotated `vX.Y.Z-lotus.N` tag for every published version. Then in cinny bump the `@lotusguild/element-call-embedded` pin (currently `0.25.0-lotus.12`) → `npm install` → build. Manual fallback: `pnpm run build:embedded && cd embedded/web && npm version <ver> --no-git-tag-version && npm publish`.

+### CI/CD + per-feature checklist
+
+```
+edit → commit → git push origin lotus
+→ Gitea Actions (.gitea/workflows/ci.yml): npm ci → build + npm test + tsc + eslint + prettier (ALL hard gates) → audit + bundle-size (informational)
+→ lotus_deploy.sh on LXC 106 polls the "Build & Quality Checks" status → npm ci && npm run build → rsync → live (~11 min)
+   (a push that lands while a deploy is mid-build is queued and deployed right after — matrix@b6ea4a3; before that it was dropped)
+```
+
+Before marking a feature complete: `npx tsc --noEmit` (0 errors) · `npx eslint src/` (0 new) · `npx prettier --check src/` · `npm test` (Node runner via tsx, hard CI gate — colocated `*.test.ts`) · update `README.md`/`landing/index.html` for Lotus-custom features · visually verify on `chat.lotusguild.org`.
+
+**CI hardening (2026-07, reviewed):**
+
+- [x] **Concurrency** — `cancel-in-progress` on cinny `ci.yml` and cinny-desktop `release.yml` (`386a2979` / `c5461ce`): a superseded lotus push cancels its in-flight web CI and collapses queued ~30-min Tauri desktop builds to just the newest. Safe for deploys because `lotus_deploy.sh` now **follows origin/lotus HEAD** each poll iteration + resets to the gated SHA (`matrix` `c15a489`) — closes the latched-SHA freeze race.
+- [x] **Hard quality gates** — typecheck/eslint/prettier promoted from `continue-on-error` to blocking (tree held clean). eslint gates on errors only; `no-explicit-any` warnings stay informational.
+
+**CI follow-ups (open):**
+
+**CI follow-ups** are tracked in the `matrix` repo: [#8](https://code.lotusguild.org/LotusGuild/matrix/issues/8) dedicated `desktop-linux` runner, [#9](https://code.lotusguild.org/LotusGuild/matrix/issues/9) debounce the desktop trigger, [#10](https://code.lotusguild.org/LotusGuild/matrix/issues/10) verify Gitea `concurrency`. Build-once/deploy-the-artifact was considered and deferred (noted on #8).

-# Lotus Chat — Manual Testing Guide
+# Lotus Chat — Testing
 
-**Generated:** June 2026
-**Scope:** Everything landed on the `lotus` branch since the v4.12.3 merge that I (Claude) could **not** verify statically and that needs a human in a real environment to confirm. Work through it top-to-bottom; the highest-risk / hardest-to-reproduce items are first.
+> **Manual QA checklists no longer live here.** Every shipped-but-unverified behaviour is a Gitea issue labelled **`qa`** — cinny milestone [Manual QA backlog](https://code.lotusguild.org/LotusGuild/cinny/milestones), cinny-desktop milestone [Desktop QA backlog](https://code.lotusguild.org/LotusGuild/cinny-desktop/milestones). Each issue carries the full steps + expected results; tick items as they pass, comment on FAIL (what you saw vs expected, browser/OS, web vs desktop, theme, console errors), close when green. Migrated from this file on 2026-09-17 (full text in git history).
 
-> **How to report back:** For each numbered check, tell me **PASS** / **FAIL** (or **partial**). On any FAIL, include: what you saw vs. expected, the browser/OS (and whether web LXC 106 or the desktop/Tauri build), the theme you were on, and any **browser console** errors (F12 → Console). Screenshots help for anything visual.
+This file keeps what a contributor needs to run and extend the **automated** coverage, plus the ops tip at the bottom.
 
 ## Environment notes
 
-- You push from your own machine; these commits are local on `lotus` until you do.
-- Test the **web** build (LXC 106 / `code.lotusguild.org`) first; re-run the **call** + **poll** sections on the **desktop (Tauri)** build too, since CSP and the EC iframe behave differently there.
-- Several call features need a **second participant** (second account on another device/browser, or a colleague). Items that need this are marked **👥 2 people**.
-- A couple of call items need a **third room/call** in parallel — marked **👥👥**.

+python3 scripts/dev-seed.py 400     # alice + bob, "Busy Room": 400 messages, an image every 10th

+```
+
+**Calls too:** `scripts/dev-homeserver.sh calls` adds a LiveKit SFU, a JWT issuer, the real `voice-limit-guard` from the `matrix` checkout and an https well-known — real two-party calls in headless Chromium with fake mic/camera (`--use-fake-device-for-media-stream`, `--use-file-for-fake-audio-capture=<tone.wav>` to trigger speaking detection, `--auto-select-desktop-capture-source="Entire screen"` for screenshare; `ignoreHTTPSErrors: true`). This is how #29, #161, #173/#174 and the guard's live-revoke bug were found and fixed on 2026-09-18.

+Log in at `http://127.0.0.1:5173/login/http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8008/` as `alice` / `password123` (bob is the second participant; both can also be driven over the client API with their tokens). Playwright is installed (`npm run test:e2e:install`), so a scripted reproduction is `node` + `chromium.launch()` against `:5173` — this is how Gitea #163 was reproduced and its fix verified in both plain and encrypted rooms. `scripts/dev-homeserver.sh reset` wipes the database; `stop` shuts it down.

+## Automated coverage map — what the unit tests already pin (2026-07)
+
+**Read this before working a `qa` issue.** Much of the _logic_ the manual checks were written to catch is now locked by deterministic unit tests (`npm test`, 920+ cases, green in CI). Unit tests do **not** prove visual rendering, real-call behavior, the desktop build, E2EE, or cross-device sync — those still need a human. But where a decision is pure logic, you can **trust the test and spend your manual time on the human-only part**. For each row below, the middle column is "don't bother re-deriving this by hand"; the right column is "this is what your manual pass is actually for."

Helpers in `e2e/localHs.ts`; add a test here whenever a fix was reproduced with a scratch Playwright script |
 
-1. Open **Settings → General**, scroll to the **Calls** section.
-2. Find the new **Ringtone** dropdown (just above **Ringtone Volume**).
-3. Select each option in turn: **Classic, Chime, Soft, Retro, Silent**.
+**Accessibility gate** (Gitea #222): `e2e/a11y.spec.ts` runs `@axe-core/playwright` (WCAG 2.x A/AA tags) over the login page, room timeline + composer, message options menu, thread panel, user settings and room settings, and fails on any **critical/serious** finding except `color-contrast` (reported in the log, not gated — generated avatar colours and portal false positives). It also keeps accessibility-tree snapshots (`e2e/a11y.spec.ts-snapshots/*.aria.yml`) of the composer, message menu, thread panel and settings nav, so a lost name/role/live-region shows as a diff; update them deliberately with `npx playwright test e2e/a11y --update-snapshots` and keep dynamic bits as regexes. A real NVDA/VoiceOver pass is still manual.
 
-**Expected**
+**Browsers** (Gitea #221): everything runs under Chromium; the tests tagged `@webkit` (boot, login + send/receive, thread panel, lightbox) also run under Playwright's WebKit as desktop Safari, and those tagged `@ios` under the `iPhone 14` descriptor — the closest CI gets to Safari/iOS. It catches WebKit-only breakage (CSS, `dvh`, IndexedDB, media decode) but does not emulate the on-screen keyboard or Home-Screen install; a real iPhone pass (#166/#199) stays manual. Locally: `npx playwright install --with-deps webkit` once, then `npx playwright test --project=webkit --project=iphone`. WebKit words handled fetch failures as page errors (`TypeError: Load failed`, `due to access control checks`), so the allowlist in `e2e/helpers.ts` applies to page errors too.
 
-- Selecting **Classic** plays the existing `call.ogg` clip (cut off after a few seconds).
-- **Chime / Soft / Retro** each play a short, distinct synthesized preview.
-- **Silent** plays nothing.
-- Changing **Ringtone Volume** then re-selecting a ringtone previews at the new volume.
-- No console errors.
+**CI secrets** (Gitea → repo → Settings → Actions → Secrets; the `e2e` job forwards them via `env:`; until they exist the E2EE tier reports `skipped`, the boot tier still runs):
 
-> ⚠️ **Known browser limitation:** the synthesized tones use WebAudio. If a preview is ever silent, click anywhere on the page once (a "user gesture") and retry — browsers suspend audio until the page has been interacted with. The Settings preview is _after_ a click so it should always sound; this note matters more for A3.
+- `E2E_HOMESERVER` — server name as typed on the login page (e.g. `matrix.example.org`). Must offer `m.login.password`; a next-gen-auth (MAS/OIDC-issuer) server shows only the OIDC button and the tier will fail at the username field.
+- `E2E_USER` / `E2E_PASSWORD` — a **throwaway** account: each run logs in as a new device and creates a new `e2e-smoke-<timestamp>` room. Prune devices/rooms occasionally.
 
-### A2. Ringtone selection persists
-
-1. Set Ringtone to **Retro**, reload the app.
-2. **Expected:** the dropdown still shows **Retro** (setting persisted).
-3. Bonus: in devtools, set `localStorage.settings` to a bogus `ringtoneId` and reload → it should fall back to **Classic**, not break.
-
-### A3. Incoming call uses the selected ringtone — 👥 2 people
-
-**Setup:** Account A (you) and Account B in a **DM** or a **private (invite-only) group** room.
-
-1. As A, pick a non-silent ringtone (e.g. **Chime**).
-2. From B, **start a call** in that DM/room. Do **not** answer on A.
-
-**Expected on A**
-
-- The full-screen **Incoming Call** dialog appears (caller name, room avatar, Answer / Reject).
-- The **selected ringtone loops** until you answer/reject/ignore (at the set volume).
-- Answer → joins the call. Reject (DM) / Ignore (group) → dialog dismisses and ring stops.
-- Set ringtone to **Silent** and repeat → dialog still appears, **no sound**.
-
-### A4. In-call banner for a second incoming call — 👥👥 (the trickiest one)
-
-**Setup:** You (A) already **in a call** in Room 1. Account B can call you in a **different** Room 2 (a DM or private group you share). Ideally a third account C, or B leaves Room 1's call first.
-
-1. While A is **actively in Room 1's call**, trigger an incoming call to A from **Room 2**.
-
-**Expected on A**
-
-- **No** full-screen takeover. Instead a **compact banner appears in the top-right corner** with the caller's avatar, room name, "Incoming voice/video call", and **Answer / Reject (or Ignore)** buttons.
-- It plays a **single soft ping**, _not_ a looping ring (so it doesn't talk over your active call).
-- The banner does **not** cover your active call's controls/PiP in a way that blocks them.
-- **Answer** → switches you into Room 2's call. **Reject/Ignore** → banner disappears.
-- The banner auto-dismisses if the caller hangs up / the call times out.
-
-**Also verify the no-op case:** while in Room 1's call, if a notification for **Room 1 itself** arrives, **nothing** should pop up (no banner, no dialog).
-
-### A5. Camera focus during screenshare (#1) — 👥 2 people
-
-**Setup:** You (A) and B in a call; B (or another participant) **sharing their screen**, and at least one person with **camera on**.
-
-1. As A, open the **participant glance** (the stacked avatars / member list for the call) and click a participant who has their **camera on**.
-2. In the menu, click **"Focus camera"**.
-
-**Expected**
-
-- The view switches to **spotlight** and **pins that person's camera tile**, overriding the auto-spotlighted screenshare.
-- It **stays** on that camera (doesn't immediately snap back to the screenshare).
-- If you pick someone with their camera **off**, it should at worst just toggle spotlight (graceful fallback), not error.
-
-### A6. Avatar decorations on call tiles (#3) — 👥 2 people
-
-**Setup:** A participant in the call has an **avatar decoration** set (Settings → Profile decoration).
-
-1. Join a call with that participant.
-2. Look at **our** participant roster / prescreen tiles (not the avatars rendered inside the Element Call video grid — those are EC's and out of scope).
-
-**Expected:** the decoration ring/overlay renders around that participant's avatar on the call tile, the same way it does in member lists.
-
-### A7. EC iframe load watchdog + recovery UI (#EC, N96)
-
-This guards against a permanently-stuck "Loading…" call. Also covers the N96 button-label fix (the old "Retry" and "Leave" buttons were identical — now there is a single **"Back"** button).
-
-1. Normal case: **join a call** → it should connect within a few seconds as usual (the watchdog stays invisible).
-2. Failure case (best-effort to reproduce): throttle your network hard (devtools → Network → Offline) **right as** you click join, or block the Element Call origin, so the iframe can't finish loading.
-
-**Expected**
-
-- On a genuine failure/timeout (~25s), instead of an endless spinner you get a **visible error overlay with a single "Back" button** (the old "Retry" + "Leave" pair is gone — they did the same thing and "Retry" was misleading).
-- Clicking **Back** returns you to the call prescreen, where you can manually click Join to try again.
-- Normal joins must **not** trigger the error overlay (no false positives) — this is the important part to confirm.
-- **Self-heal:** if the error overlay appears on a slow network but EC then finishes loading anyway, the overlay should **dismiss itself** and drop you into the live call. Worth confirming on a deliberately throttled-but-not-blocked connection.
+The `e2e` job is `continue-on-error: true` for now because `playwright install --with-deps` needs `apt` on the runner image — promote it to a hard gate once it is green on the runner. Locally: `npm run test:e2e` (boot tier only), or `E2E_HOMESERVER=… E2E_USER=… E2E_PASSWORD=… npm run test:e2e` for both; on failure look in `test-results/` (screenshot + trace) and `playwright-report/`.

-## B. Polls (N4) — render correctly on non-TDS themes
-
-This was the actual bug: poll buttons used undefined CSS variables, so on the **default (non-Lotus-Terminal) themes** they rendered with invisible borders / no selected state.
-
-### B1. Poll renders on a default theme — ✅ PASS
-
-1. Switch to a **default Cinny theme** (Settings → Appearance — **not** Lotus Terminal / TDS). Test both a **dark** and a **light** theme.
-2. In any room, create a poll (composer → poll button): a **single-choice** poll with 3 options.
-
-**Expected**
-
-- Each option is a clearly **bordered** button with visible rounded corners.
-- A **radio circle** indicator is visible on the left of each option.
-- Text, and (after votes) the percentage, are legible.
-
-### B2. Voting + selected/progress state
-
-1. **Vote** on an option.
-   **Expected**
-
-- The selected option shows a **filled accent border + filled radio**, and an **accent progress-bar fill** grows behind it proportional to the vote %.
-- The percentage and total vote count update.
-- Click again / pick another option → selection moves correctly (single-choice replaces; the bar redraws).
-
-### B3. Multiple-choice poll
-
-1. Create a poll allowing **multiple selections**.
-   **Expected**
-
-- Indicators are **square checkboxes** (not circles); selected ones show a **✓** that's legible against the filled box.
-- You can select **several** options; each shows its own progress fill.
-
-### B4. Lotus Terminal theme regression — ✅ PASS
-
-1. Switch to **Lotus Terminal / TDS** theme and re-open a poll.
-   **Expected:** still looks correct (the fix uses theme tokens, so the TDS accent should now drive it) — no worse than before.
-
 ---
 
-## C. Robustness / background behavior
+### Green CI but the fix isn't live?
 
-### C1. Presence updates on tab close
-
-1. Open the app, then **close the tab** (or quit the browser).
-2. From another session/device, check your **presence** shortly after.
-   **Expected:** you go **offline/away** reliably (the unload now uses `fetch({keepalive})`). Previously this could be missed.
-
-### C2. Upload retry on flaky network (best-effort)
-
-1. In devtools → Network, set a throttle that drops/slows requests, or toggle Offline briefly **during** a file upload.
-   **Expected**
-
-- A transient failure **retries** (up to 3×, with backoff) and the upload can still succeed once the network recovers.
-- A genuine, permanent rejection (e.g. file too large / 4xx) still **fails fast** with the usual error — it should **not** spin retrying.
-
-### C3. General timeline/composer perf (no functional regression)
-
-The memoization changes are invisible if correct. Just confirm **nothing broke**:
-
-- Open a busy room; scrolling, jump-to-latest, mark-as-read all still work.
-- Composer: send a message, upload a file, share a location, pick an emoji and a sticker — all still work.

-## D. Element Call 0.20.1 merge — regression sweep (👥 2 people)
-
-The upstream bump changed EC's internals and DOM selectors; our call controls drive that iframe, so sweep them. In a live call with 2 people, confirm **each** of our control-bar buttons works:
-
-- [ ] **Mic** mute/unmute (icon + actual audio)
-- [ ] **Camera** on/off
-- [ ] **Deafen / Sound** toggle (your deafen key too)
-- [ ] **Screenshare** start/stop (and the "Share your screen?" confirm)
-- [ ] **Screenshare audio** mute toggle
-- [ ] **Fullscreen** toggle
-- [ ] **⋮ More** menu → **Spotlight/Grid**, **Reactions**, **Settings** each open the right EC panel
-- [ ] **End** call leaves cleanly
-- [ ] **PTT** (push-to-talk) if enabled: hold key = transmit, release = mute; releasing on blur works
-- [ ] **AFK auto-mute** if enabled: goes muted after the timeout
-- [ ] **PiP** (picture-in-picture) mini window: drag, resize, fullscreen button, return-to-call; the "You muted" / "All muted" badges show on the right person
-- [ ] **Denoise** (if ML noise suppression enabled): call audio still flows, no silence
-
-If any control does nothing, that usually means an EC DOM selector changed — capture the console and tell me which button.
-
----
-
-## D2. Element Call **fork** — Phase 2 feature sweep (👥 2 people) — `0.20.1-lotus.1`
-
-> The whole EC iframe is now our **self-built fork** (`@lotusguild/element-call-embedded@0.20.1-lotus.1`).
-> Five features are **active** (the host sets their flags / sends their actions); two ship **dormant**.
-> **Confirm you're on the fork first:** EC iframe console prints `Element Call embedded-v0.20.1-lotus.1`
-> (the old build prints `embedded-v0.20.1`). If it says the old version, the web deploy hasn't landed —
-> the fork features won't be present, so don't test D2 yet.
-> For non-dev testers, each item below also states the plain "✅ good if / ❌ tell us if" outcome.
-
-### D2-1. Denoise **in-source** — survives reconnect (fixes A7) ⭐ highest risk (everyone's mic)
-
-Flag: cinny sets `lotusDenoiseSource=1` when ML denoise is selected (the old build-time getUserMedia
-shim is **removed**). This is the single change with the widest blast radius — test deliberately.
-
-- [ ] **Audio flows, no silence** with ML denoise on (baseline, also §D line 204).
-- [ ] **Reconnect (the A7 fix):** in a call with ML denoise on, kill network ~10 s (devtools → Offline)
-      so EC shows "Connection lost / Reconnect", then restore. **Mic still works AND still denoised**
-      afterward, **without** End+rejoin. _(This is the exact bug that was reintroduced then fixed; if it
-      regresses, mic dies on every reconnect.)_
-- [ ] **Mic device switch mid-call** (Settings → change microphone): audio keeps working (same
-      `restart()` path as reconnect).
-- [ ] **Mute → unmute** a few times: audio returns each time.
-- [ ] **Each model** if the picker offers them: `rnnoise` (default), `speex`, `dtln`, `deepfilternet` —
-      each loads + denoises, no silence. (All four are in-source now; DTLN runs at 16 kHz, others 48 kHz.)
-- [ ] **No double-processing:** audio isn't over-suppressed/artifacted (would mean the old shim is still
-      injected alongside the in-source engine).
-- **Rollback if bad for everyone:** revert the cinny deploy commit (restores the shim + `@element-hq` parity).
-
-### D2-2. Speaking + mute indicators from widget **events** (#2)
-
-Flag: `lotusCallState=1`. cinny now reads speaker/mute state from `io.lotus.call_state` events instead of
-scraping EC's DOM (DOM fallback retained). Overlaps **G1**.
-
-- [ ] **Speaking glow** lights the **correct** person when they talk (you, then your friend).
-- [ ] **PiP "All muted" / "You muted" badge** points at the right person and updates on mute/unmute.
-
-### D2-3. Focus camera **during a screenshare** (#4 / A5)
-
-Action: cinny sends `io.lotus.focus_participant` (the DOM `.click()` hack is gone). Overlaps **A5 / G2**.
-
-- [ ] Person A screenshares; Person B camera on; **MemberGlance → Focus camera** on B → B's camera is
-      spotlighted **alongside/over** the shared screen (not ignored).
-- [ ] Camera-**off** target = graceful (no error, no kick out of the screenshare).
-
-### D2-4. In-call avatar decorations (#6) — **NEW, beyond A6**
-
-Action: cinny pushes `io.lotus.decorations`. **A6 only covered the lobby roster** and called in-call EC
-tiles out of scope — that's now in scope.
-
-- [ ] A participant with a **Profile decoration** joins **camera off** → the decoration ring renders on
-      their **in-call video-tile avatar** (inside EC, not just the lobby), correctly sized/positioned.
-- [ ] Decoration tracks the right person across grid/spotlight layout changes; disappears when they leave.
-
-### D2-5. Native transparent background (#5)
-
-Flag: `lotusTransparent=1` (native, replacing the injected `background:none !important`).
-
-- [ ] Call background looks right — host wallpaper/surface shows through; **no** black box, bad
-      see-through, or layout breakage (also covered loosely by §D2 "looks right").
-
-### D2-7. In-Call Soundboard (#3 / P5-15) — 👥 2 people — **NEW**
-
-Flag: `lotusAudioInject=1`. A 🔔 **Soundboard** button now sits in the call controls bar (left group,
-next to the chat button). Clips are user-uploadable and sync across your devices like emoji packs.
-_Prereq:_ Settings → General → Calls → **Soundboard** must be ON (default on).
-
-- [ ] **Upload:** open the soundboard popout → **Upload** → pick a short audio file (mp3/ogg/wav, ≤ 1 MB).
-      It appears as a clip tile. (Too-big / too-many shows an error, doesn't crash.)
-- [ ] **Plays into the call:** with a second person in the call, click a clip. **They hear it**, and
-      **you hear it locally** too. ✅ good if both hear it; ❌ tell us if only one side does.
-- [ ] **Sync:** the uploaded clip shows up on your **other device**/session (account-data sync).
-- [ ] **Delete:** the ✕ on a tile removes it (everywhere, after sync).
-- [ ] **Off switch:** turn Settings → Calls → **Soundboard** off → the call-bar button disappears.
-- [ ] Injecting a clip does **not** mute/interrupt your mic or anyone else's audio.
-
-### D2-8. Call Quality Controls (#7 / P5-31) — 👥 2 people — **NEW**
-
-Action: `io.lotus.set_quality`. User settings in **Settings → General → Calls** (Microphone Bitrate,
-Screenshare Bitrate, Screenshare Framerate; all default **Auto**). Admin caps in **Room Settings →
-General → Voice → Call Quality Caps**.
-
-- [ ] **No regression at Auto:** with everything on **Auto**, calls/screenshare work exactly as before.
-- [ ] **User cap takes effect:** set Microphone Bitrate to **32 kbps**, rejoin/continue a call — audio
-      still flows (thinner is fine). Set Screenshare Framerate to **15 fps** and share your screen — it
-      still shares. ❌ tell us if any setting kills audio/screenshare.
-- [ ] **Applies mid-call:** changing a setting **during** a call takes effect without End+rejoin.
-- [ ] **Room-admin cap (admin needed):** as a room admin, set **Max Microphone Bitrate = 64 kbps** in
-      Room Settings → Voice. A member whose user setting is higher (e.g. 256) should be **clamped to 64**
-      (best-effort/UX — this is client-side; hard server enforcement is a separate follow-up).
-- [ ] Resetting a setting back to **Auto** removes the cap for the rest of the call.
-
-> Soundboard + quality are no longer "dormant" — if either does nothing, grab the **EC iframe console**
-> and check for `io.lotus.inject_audio` / `io.lotus.set_quality` rejections.
-
-### D2-9. Call Permissions — HARD server-side, cross-client (👥 2 people, admin) — **NEW**
-
-This is enforced by the `voice-limit-guard` on the server (re-signs the LiveKit JWT), so it applies to
-**every** client, not just Lotus Chat. Set in **Room Settings → General → Voice → Call Permissions**.
-_(Requires the guard deployed on LXC 151 — auto-deploys on a `matrix` repo push.)_
-
-- [ ] **Disable screenshare:** as admin, turn **Allow Screen Sharing** off. In a call, the
-      **screenshare button disappears** in Lotus Chat. ✅ good if no one can screenshare.
-- [ ] **Cross-client (the important one):** have someone join the **same room from stock Element / Element
-      X** and try to screenshare → the server **refuses** the track (it won't publish). This proves it's
-      not just our client hiding a button.
-- [ ] **Audio-only room:** turn **Allow Camera** off too → the camera button disappears and cameras are
-      server-blocked for all clients; **microphones still work**.
-- [ ] **⭐ Live kill (mid-call):** while someone is **actively screensharing**, an admin turns **Allow
-      Screen Sharing** off. Within a few seconds their screenshare should **stop for everyone** on its own
-      (no rejoin needed) — this is the server reconcile loop revoking it live. Works even if the sharer is
-      on stock Element. ✅ good if the share drops within ~3–5 s; ❌ tell us if it keeps going.
-- [ ] **Turning it back on** restores the ability to screenshare/camera (start a new share).
-- [ ] **No policy = no change:** a room with Call Permissions left on defaults behaves exactly as before.
-
-> If any D2 item fails, grab the **EC iframe console** (right-click the call → inspect the iframe) — a
-> widget-action/payload mismatch shows up there as a `io.lotus.*` rejection or a `MissingKey`/transport log.

-# Backlog of previously-fixed-but-unverified items
-
-> Sections A–D above are **this session's** work. Everything below was fixed in earlier waves and is still flagged **⚠️ UNTESTED** in `LOTUS_BUGS.md` / `LOTUS_TODO.md`. They're grouped by what kind of environment you need (mobile, desktop, screen reader, etc.) so you can knock out a whole category at once. None of these are urgent the way A–D are; do them as you have the right device handy.
-
-## E. Mobile / responsive (needs a real phone, or devtools device emulation)
-
-### E1. Composer toolbar touch targets (#7)
-
-On a phone, open a room and the composer toolbar. Tap each button (attach, format, sticker, emoji, GIF, location, poll, schedule, send).
-**Expected:** every button is comfortably tappable (≥44×44px), no mis-taps hitting the wrong icon.
-
-### E2. Room Settings — no horizontal overflow (#8)
-
-On a narrow phone screen, open **Room Settings**.
-**Expected:** the settings nav panel fills the full width; **no** horizontal scrollbar / sideways scrolling anywhere in the panel.
-
-### E3. Modals go fullscreen on mobile (#9)
-
-On a phone, open several dialogs: Leave Room, Create Room, Create Space, Invite User, Report (room/user/message), Edit History, Forward Message, Remind Me, Schedule Message, Device Verification, Poll Creator.
-**Expected:** each opens **fullscreen** (no floating box, no rounded corners / max-width margins). On desktop the same modals should still be the normal centered boxes.
-
-### E4. Composer not hidden by the keyboard (#10) — iOS Safari especially
-
-On a phone (priority: **iOS Safari**), tap into the composer so the on-screen keyboard appears.
-**Expected:** the composer input stays **visible above** the keyboard; the layout shrinks rather than the composer sliding under the keyboard.
-
-### E5. Mobile "Saved Messages" access (Mobile Bookmarks)
-
-On a phone, **inside a room**, open the room header **··· More Options** menu.
-**Expected:** a **"Saved Messages"** item is present; tapping it opens the bookmarks panel. (This was the only in-room access point missing on mobile.)
-
----
-
-## F. Visual / theming
-
-### F1. Animated chat background — no flicker (#2)
-
-Settings → set an **animated** chat background (e.g. anim-rain / anim-aurora / anim-stars). Watch the message text and composer while it animates.
-**Expected:** smooth animation, **no flickering / shimmering** on message text or the composer, especially after scrolling. Note your GPU/browser if you see artifacts.
-
-### F2. Background vs. Seasonal theme are mutually exclusive (#6)
-
-In Settings → Appearance:
-
-1. Pick a **chat background** → confirm any **seasonal theme** auto-switches off.
-2. Pick a **seasonal theme** → confirm the **chat background** auto-clears to none.
-3. (Edge) If you have old data with both set, after reload only one should visibly apply (no double-overlay clutter).
-
-### F3. Background / seasonal picker grid layout (N81)
-
-In Settings → Appearance, look at the **Chat Background** and **Seasonal Theme** swatch grids; resize the window narrow→wide.
-**Expected:** swatches reflow to fill each row evenly (responsive grid), with no lopsided/orphaned last row at any width.
-
----
-
-## G. Calls — additional unverified (👥 2 people)
-
-### G1. PiP mute badges point at the right person (#12)
-
-In a call with at least one other person, pop out the **Picture-in-Picture** mini window.
-
-- **You** mute your own mic → a **"You"/muted badge appears bottom-left** (your status).
-- A **remote** participant (or all of them) mutes → an **"All muted"** badge appears **top-right** (clearly about other people).
-  **Expected:** the bottom-left badge is **never** triggered by someone else muting — that was the original bug (it looked like your own mic was muted when it wasn't).
-
-### G2. Full-screen camera broadcasts
-
-1. In a **camera-only** call (no screenshare), confirm the **Fullscreen** button is available (previously only showed during screenshare).
-2. Use **MemberGlance → Focus camera** to full-screen/spotlight a specific person's camera. (Overlaps **A5**; if you've done A5 you can skip.)
-
-### G3. PTT badge renders on all themes (N53)
-
-Enable **Push-to-talk** (Settings → Calls) and join a call. Hold the PTT key.
-**Expected:** the floating PTT badge above the controls shows "PTT — Hold KEY" when idle and "● Live" (green) while held — on **both** a default theme and Lotus Terminal (it's now a single folds Chip; the old terminal-only variant was removed).
-
----
-
-## H. Media / performance (needs a room with many images)
-
-### H1. Lazy image decryption (P5-5 / MediaGallery)
-
-Open a room / media gallery with **many images** (ideally encrypted). Scroll down through them.
-**Expected:** images decrypt/load as they **approach the viewport**, not all at once on open; scrolling stays smooth and memory doesn't balloon. Off-screen images shouldn't all decode up front.
-
-### H2. Thumbnail framing (P5-6)
-
-Look at **tall portrait** images in the timeline and in the media gallery.
-**Expected:** thumbnails are framed **center-top** (so faces/subjects at the top aren't cropped out); no awkward stretching. Opening the full-size viewer still shows the **whole** image (contain, not cropped).
-
----
-
-## I. Accessibility (needs a screen reader: VoiceOver / NVDA / TalkBack)
-
-With a screen reader on, navigate message hover-actions and content and confirm each control **announces a meaningful label** (not "button" / blank):
-
-- [ ] **Reaction** buttons announce the emoji + count (e.g. "thumbsup reaction, 3 people").
-- [ ] **Edit history** button announces "View edit history".
-- [ ] **Thread indicator** announces "View thread".
-- [ ] **Reply** (jump to original) announces "Jump to original message".
-
----
-
-## J. Desktop / Tauri build only
-
-### J1. Proactive update notifications (P5-40)
-
-In the **desktop (Tauri)** build, with an update available, launch the app (and/or leave it running ~12h).
-**Expected:** an in-app toast/badge alerts you that an update is available, without manually checking Settings. (Needs an actual newer release to point at.)
-
-### J2. DTLN noise suppression sanity
-
-In Settings → Calls, enable **ML noise suppression** with the **DTLN** model, then join a call.
-**Expected:** your mic audio still flows (no silence/robotic dropouts) and background noise is reduced. Confirmed working earlier but flagged for a final real-call check; verify on **both** web and desktop.
-
----
-
-## K. Features — end-to-end unverified
-
-### K1. Remind Me Later
-
-On a message, **··· → Remind Me**, pick a short preset (the 20-min one, or wait one out).
-**Expected:** when due, a Lotus toast fires linking to that message; the reminder then clears itself. Survives a reload while pending (stored in account data).
-
-### K2. Advanced search filters (P4-9)
-
-In message search: use the **sender picker** (instead of typing `from:@user`), the **date-range** quick presets (Today / Last week / Last month / Last year), and the **Has link** toggle.
-**Expected:** each narrows results correctly and reflects in the search.
-
-### K3. Notification content + click target (P5-20 partial)
-
-Trigger a desktop/browser notification for a new message.
-**Expected:** it shows the **real message body** (`username: message`, not "New inbox notification from…"); **clicking it** brings the window to front and navigates **directly to that message** (not just the inbox).
-
----
-
-## L. Fixed — verify
-
-### L1. AFK auto-mute releases the OS microphone indicator on mute (N95) — 👥 live call
-
-**Context (now FIXED):** `useAfkAutoMute.ts` opened its own `getUserMedia` level-monitor capture for the whole call, so the OS recording indicator (green dot on macOS, mic icon on Windows/Linux) stayed lit even when muted. The capture is now gated on the reactive mic-on state — it runs only while unmuted, so muting releases the stream.
-
-**To verify:**
-
-1. Enable **AFK auto-mute** in Settings → Calls and **join a call**.
-2. Manually **mute your mic** using the call controls → the **OS recording indicator should clear** within ~a second.
-3. **Unmute** → the indicator should re-appear (capture re-acquired).
-4. Also confirm AFK still works end-to-end: stay unmuted and silent past the configured timeout → mic auto-mutes with the "muted after inactivity" toast, and the indicator clears.
-
-### L2. Maskable PWA icon (N108) — Android install
-
-1. On **Android Chrome**, install Lotus Chat as a PWA (Add to Home Screen).
-2. Look at the **home-screen icon**.
-
-**Expected:** the icon fills the adaptive-icon shape cleanly (the logo centered with safe-zone padding on the dark background), **not** clipped at the corners or floating in an odd box. Also worth a quick check in Chrome DevTools → Application → Manifest that the two `purpose: maskable` icons load without a 404 (this also validates the manifest's icon paths resolve in production — a pre-existing path convention I couldn't verify statically).
-
----
-
-## M. New features (this round)
-
-### M1. Search: `has:image` / `has:file` / `has:video` filters
-
-1. Open message search (in a room with shared images/files/videos in history).
-2. Run a broad search, then toggle the **Images**, **Files**, **Video** chips (in the filter bar, next to "Has link").
-
-**Expected:**
-
-- Each chip narrows the visible results to that message type; multiple active chips = union (any of them).
-- Toggling them off restores the full results. The existing room/sender/date/has-link filters still work alongside.
-- **Known limitation (by design):** filtering is client-side over already-fetched results, so the visible count can be lower than the server's total for that query — paginating/loading more pulls in more to filter. Confirm this reads acceptably.
-
-### M2. Search: recent searches
-
-1. Run a few different searches, then **clear the search box** and focus it.
-
-**Expected:** your last (up to 10) distinct searches appear as clickable chips; clicking one re-runs it. A **Clear** affordance wipes the list. The list **persists across a page refresh** (localStorage).
-
-### M3. Custom accent color (non-TDS themes) — ⚠️ needs your visual judgment
-
-1. Make sure **Lotus Terminal (TDS)** is **off**. Settings → Appearance → **Custom Accent Color** → pick a color.
-
-**Expected:**
-
-- The app's accent (buttons, selected/active states, links, primary chips) recolors to your choice **live**.
-- **Look critically at quality** (this is the part I can't verify): button **text legibility** (OnMain contrast) on the accent buttons; **hover/active** shades; and **selected-row / chip** backgrounds (the translucent "Container" tints). Try a **light** color and a **dark** color and a **saturated** one.
-  - If a dark accent makes selected-row text (OnContainer) hard to read, tell me — that's the one spot in the auto-derived palette most likely to need tuning.
-- **Reset** clears it back to the theme default.
-- Turn **Lotus Terminal ON** → the custom accent should be **ignored** (TDS fixed palette wins) and the picker shows a "non-TDS only" note; turn it back off → custom accent returns.
-- Reload → the chosen accent **persists**.
-
----
-
-### M4. Search: "Pinned only" filter
-
-In message search, toggle the **Pinned** chip.
-**Expected:** results narrow to messages currently pinned in their room; composes with the Images/Files/Video chips and room/sender/date filters; toggling off restores results. It also narrows the **encrypted/local-cache** results section (not just server results). Needs a room with actually pinned messages.
-
-### M5. New theme presets (Cyberpunk / Ocean / Blood Red / Classic Matrix / Midnight) — ⚠️ visual judgment
-
-Settings → Appearance → theme picker → try each of the 5 new themes.
-**Expected:** each applies a complete, legible dark palette. Code review computed WCAG contrast and all pass AA, but **eyeball these specifically**: **Midnight** (lowest-contrast accent `#6b7ca8` — selected/focus states), **Classic Matrix** (green accents, light-green body text on near-black), **Blood Red** (white-ish text on bright-red buttons). Confirm Success/Warning/Critical (save/leave/delete) still look correctly green/amber/red, not recolored. Switching back to a stock theme should fully revert.
-

-
-## N. OIDC / Next-Gen Auth login (MSC3861) — P4-6
-
-The Lotus client can now sign into OIDC-native homeservers (ones that delegate
-auth to a Matrix Authentication Service / MAS), e.g. mozilla.org. lotusguild's
-own server is **not** MSC3861, so test EITHER against a **local MAS dev loop**
-(full setup in `dev/oidc-test/README.md` — docker-compose + Synapse `msc3861`
-delta + a `config.json` override) OR against **mozilla.org** with a real account.
-
-### N1. OIDC login flow (the core test) — needs a MAS homeserver
-
-1. On the login screen, select the OIDC homeserver (local `localhost:8008`, or `mozilla.org`).
-2. **Expected:** instead of the username/password form, a single **"Continue with single sign-on"** button appears (password + legacy-SSO are suppressed for that server).
-3. Click it → redirected to the provider's login page (MAS / `chat.mozilla.org`).
-4. Authenticate there → redirected back to `…/auth/oidc/callback` → a brief "Signing you in…" spinner → you land in the app, logged in.
-
-**Expected:** no console CSP violations; you reach the room list as the OIDC user.
-
-### N2. Session persists across reload (token storage)
-
-After N1, hard-refresh the page.
-**Expected:** you stay logged in — the OIDC session (access + refresh token + issuer/clientId/claims) was persisted (`cinny_refresh_token`, `cinny_oidc_*` keys in localStorage).
-
-### N3. Token refresh (long-lived session)
-
-Leave the session past the access-token lifetime (MAS default is short — or revoke the access token in the MAS admin UI to force a 401).
-**Expected:** the client refreshes transparently (no logout); the stored access token rotates (reactive 401 refresh via the wired `OidcTokenRefresher`).
-
-### N4. Logout revokes at the issuer
-
-Log out from Settings.
-**Expected:** back to login; OIDC tokens are revoked at the issuer's `revocation_endpoint` (best-effort) and all `cinny_*` / `cinny_oidc_*` keys are cleared. Logging back in works.
-
-### N5. Account-management deep-link
-
-Settings → Account.
-**Expected:** on an OIDC server a **"Manage account"** card appears (opens the provider's account page in a new tab). On a non-OIDC server (lotusguild) the card is **absent**.
-
-### N6. Non-OIDC regression — password login unchanged
-
-Log into **matrix.lotusguild.org** (password) and **matrix.org**.
-**Expected:** identical to before — username/password form (+ SSO button where offered). The OIDC path only activates when discovery advertises an issuer, so nothing changes for these servers.
-
----
-
-## Priority if you're short on time
-
-1. **A4** (in-call banner) + **A3** (ringtone) — newest, most logic, hardest to reproduce.
-2. **B1–B3** (polls on a default theme) — the confirmed visual bug.
-3. **D** (EC 0.20.1 control sweep) — guards against the upstream merge breaking calls.
-4. **A7** false-positive check (normal joins don't show the error overlay).
-5. Everything else.
+`curl -s https://chat.lotusguild.org/index.html | grep -o 'assets/index-[^"]*\.js'` gives the deployed entry chunk; grep it for a string unique to your change (`curl -s https://chat.lotusguild.org/<that path> | grep -c <string>`). If it's 0 after ~15 min, the deploy trigger was lost — push again (any commit) to re-fire the `lotus-deploy` webhook. The deploy log lives at `/var/log/lotus-deploy.log` on LXC 106.

-## ⚠️ TDS DESIGN LAW — READ BEFORE TOUCHING ANY UI
-
-> **ALL Lotus Terminal Design System (TDS) styling — colors, animations, glows, borders, fonts, spacing — MUST come exclusively from `/root/code/web_template/base.css` CSS variables.**
-> Do NOT hardcode hex values. Do NOT invent new variable names. Do NOT deviate from the design tokens defined in that file.
-> The canonical variable reference: `--lt-accent-orange`, `--lt-accent-cyan`, `--lt-accent-green`, `--lt-glow-orange`, `--lt-box-glow-*`, `--lt-border-color`, etc.
-> Reference implementation for code patterns: `/root/code/tinker_tickets/` (markdown.js, base.js, ticket.css)
-> This rule applies to EVERY task in this file without exception.
-
----
-
-## 🧩 NATIVE-CINNY LAW — EVERY FEATURE MUST FEEL LIKE STOCK CINNY
-
-> **Every feature we implement must feel native to the upstream Cinny app — indistinguishable from something the Cinny team would have shipped.** Reference: <https://github.com/cinnyapp/cinny>.
->
-> Concretely this means:
->
-> - **Use the `folds` design system, not bespoke UI.** Build with folds primitives (`Button`, `Chip`, `IconButton`, `Menu`, `MenuItem`, `Dialog`, `Modal`, `Input`, `Switch`, `Badge`, `SettingTile`, `SequenceCard`, etc.) and folds tokens (`color.*`, `config.space.*`, `config.radii.*`, `config.borderWidth.*`). No hardcoded hex/`rgba()` for UI chrome, no invented/undefined CSS variables.
-> - **Match Cinny's existing patterns.** Before adding UI, find the closest existing Cinny component/flow and mirror it (e.g. a new dropdown uses `Button`+`PopOut`+`Menu`+`MenuItem` like the rest; a new modal has a `Header` with a close `IconButton`; a new setting is a `SettingTile` inside a `SequenceCard`). Consistency with stock Cinny beats personal style.
-> - **Lotus-custom additions should be unobtrusive** and fit Cinny's visual language, spacing, and interaction conventions — a stranger using Cinny should not be able to tell which features are ours.
->
-> **The ONE exception:** explicit **Lotus Terminal Design System (TDS)** features, which intentionally have their own distinct look and follow the **TDS Design Law** above. TDS styling is opt-in (only active in Lotus Terminal mode); everything else must look and feel like native Cinny.

-## Priority 3 — Higher complexity / lower daily frequency
-
-### [ ] P3-4 · Accessibility Improvements (WCAG 2.1 AA)
-
-**What:** Comprehensive audit and fix pass targeting the critical user paths:
-
-- Room list navigation (keyboard-only)
-- Reading messages in the timeline (screen reader announces new messages)
-- Composing and sending a reply
-- Opening and closing modals (focus trap, return focus)
-- ARIA labels on all icon-only buttons
-
-**Scope:** Do NOT attempt to make every corner of the app AA-compliant in one pass — focus on the golden path (open app → find room → read → reply → send).  
-**[AUDIT REQUIRED]** — Run an automated audit first: `npx axe-core` or browser DevTools accessibility tree. Document every violation before writing a single line of code. Prioritize by severity (critical > serious > moderate).
-
-**Investigation Findings:**
-
-- **Root Cause:** Inconsistent focus management, missing `aria-live` regions for dynamic timeline updates, and sparse global keyboard shortcuts.
-- **Approach:** Standardize `focus-trap-react` usage (reference `RoomNavItem.tsx`). Add `aria-live` regions to the timeline. Expand `useKeyDown.ts` for section navigation shortcuts.
-- **Complexity:** Medium-High (audit is the main work).
-
----
-
-### [ ] P3-8 · Thread Panel (full side drawer)
-
-**⚠️ LARGEST FEATURE — requires its own planning session before implementation.**  
-**What:** A right-side drawer for threaded conversations. Currently "Reply in Thread" exists but there is no panel to read or write thread replies.
-
-Features:
-
-- Click "Reply in Thread" → opens thread drawer on the right
-- Thread root event shown at the top of the panel
-- Full message rendering for all in-thread replies (reuse timeline components)
-- Reply input at the bottom (full composer with formatting, emoji, etc.)
-- Unread count badge on the thread button in the main timeline
-- Keyboard shortcut to close thread panel
-
-**Architecture:**
-
-- New Jotai atom: `activeThreadEventId: string | null`
-- New component: `src/app/features/room/thread/ThreadPanel.tsx`
-- Rendered alongside `RoomView` as a conditional right panel (mirror the members drawer pattern)
-- Filter events in timeline to `m.thread` relation for the active root event ID
-- Shares the same `mx` client and room reference as the main timeline
-
-**[AUDIT REQUIRED]** — Deeply audit how `m.thread` relation events are currently stored and retrieved in the matrix-js-sdk. Understand the thread aggregation API: `GET /rooms/{roomId}/relations/{eventId}/m.thread`. Check if `RoomTimeline.tsx` currently filters out thread replies from the main timeline (it should — confirm).
-
-**Investigation Findings:**
-
-- **Root Cause:** Current `m.thread` events are treated as standard `m.room.message` events and rendered in the main timeline.
-- **Approach:** Introduce new Jotai atom `activeThreadEventId`. Create `ThreadPanel.tsx`. Update `RoomTimeline.tsx` to filter out thread relations (`m.relates_to`). Implement aggregation fetch using `GET /rooms/{roomId}/relations/{eventId}/m.thread`. Use `thread.timelineSet` directly for the most accurate thread view.
-- **Complexity:** High.
-
----
-
-## Priority 4 — Specialized, high complexity, or low priority
-
-### [ ] P4-7 · Virtualized Infinite Scroll for Search Results
-
-**What:** Replace the manual "load more" button with an automated, virtualized infinite scroll for search results.  
-**Approach:** Utilize `@tanstack/react-virtual` in `MessageSearch.tsx` to handle the `nextToken` automatically as the user scrolls.
-
-### [ ] P4-8 · Encrypted Message Search Indexing & Caching
-
-**What:** Implement a persistent local cache for search results, optimized for encrypted rooms.  
-**Approach:** Use `IndexedDB` to store search metadata (event IDs, timestamps) to prevent redundant server-side decryption/fetching.
-
-### [ ] P4-1 · Thread Notification Mode Per-Thread (MSC3771)
-
-**Spec:** MSC3771 (stable). Depends on Thread Panel (#P3-8).  
-**What:** Per-thread notification toggle: "All messages" vs "Mentions only". Accessible from the thread panel header. Tracks unread counts separately per thread.  
-**[AUDIT REQUIRED]** — Implement after Thread Panel. Requires understanding how the SDK tracks per-thread unread counts.  
-**Complexity:** Medium (after thread panel exists).
-
----
-
-### [ ] P4-2 · Thread Subscriptions (MSC4306) [BLOCKED]
-
-**Spec:** MSC4306 (Synapse experimental). Depends on Thread Panel (#P3-8).  
-**What:** "Follow thread" button to receive notifications for a thread you haven't posted in. Uses MSC4306 subscription endpoint.  
-**[SERVER CHECK]** — `org.matrix.msc4306 = false` on `matrix.lotusguild.org` — BLOCKED until server enables it.  
-**Complexity:** Medium (after thread panel exists).
-
----
-
-### [ ] P4-4 · Math / LaTeX Rendering in Messages (LOW PRIORITY)
-
-**Spec:** CS-API §11.5 (stable) — `formatted_body` can contain LaTeX.  
-**What:** Render `$...$` or `$$...$$` LaTeX expressions in message bodies. Use KaTeX (lightweight, ~100KB, renders server-side-compatible CSS). Must gracefully fall back to raw LaTeX text if KaTeX fails.  
-**Note:** This is LOW PRIORITY — only useful for academic/technical communities. Implement last.  
-**[AUDIT REQUIRED]** — Confirm KaTeX bundle size impact on the Vite bundle. Check if matrix-js-sdk's HTML sanitizer strips LaTeX before it reaches the renderer. The formatted_body sanitization pipeline is the main risk here. (Confirmed: sanitizer STRIPS `<math>` tags — must be patched alongside the renderer.)  
-**Complexity:** Low-Medium.
-
----
-
-### [ ] P4-5 · Live Location Sharing (MSC3489 + MSC3672) (LOW PRIORITY, HIGH COMPLEXITY) [BLOCKED]
-
-**Spec:** MSC3489 + MSC3672. Implemented in Element Web.  
-**Note:** Static location sharing is already implemented. This adds live/real-time GPS beacons. Very low priority per user preference.  
-**What:** Start sharing live location → creates `m.beacon_info` state event → client posts `m.beacon` events on a timer → other users see your position update live on a map.  
-**[SERVER CHECK]** — `org.matrix.msc3489 = false` AND `org.matrix.msc3672 = false` on `matrix.lotusguild.org` — BLOCKED.  
-**Complexity:** High. Requires background geolocation API + live map rendering.
-
----
-
-### [~] P4-6 · OIDC / SSO Next-Gen Auth (MSC3861) — CLIENT-SIDE BUILT, awaiting live verification
-
-**Spec:** MSC3861 / MSC2965, Matrix spec v1.15. OAuth2-native auth via a Matrix Authentication Service (MAS).  
-**Scope decision (2026-06):** CLIENT-ONLY. We implemented OIDC login _in the Lotus client_ so it can sign into next-gen homeservers (mozilla.org, eventually matrix.org). We deliberately did **not** convert lotusguild's own Synapse to MAS (no account migration; lotusguild keeps password + legacy Authelia SSO).  
-**Built (matrix-js-sdk already ships the OIDC API; this was wiring):**
-
-- Discovery: `cs-api.ts` `getOidcIssuer()` (stable `m.authentication` + msc2965). Flow hint: `useParsedLoginFlows` `getOidcCompatibilityFlag()` (MSC3824).
-- Login: `pages/auth/oidc/{oidcConfig,oidcLoginUtil,oidcState}.ts` (dynamic registration + cache, PKCE authorize), `login/OidcLogin.tsx`, issuer-gated `Login.tsx`.
-- Callback: `oidc/OidcCallback.tsx` + `App.tsx` short-circuit (non-hash redirect path).
-- Session/refresh: `state/sessions.ts` OIDC fields, `client/{oidcTokenRefresher,oidcLogout}.ts`, `initMatrix.ts` wiring.
-- Account mgmt: `settings/account/OidcManageAccount.tsx`.
-- 13 unit tests (discovery/flow/session/cache/callback parsing). All gates green.
-  **Awaiting verification (needs a real MSC3861 server — lotusguild is NOT one):** deploy + log into **mozilla.org** (requires adding mozilla to the deployed `config.json` homeserverList + its domains to the CSP `connect-src`/`img-src` — see below), OR run a local `matrix-authentication-service` + Synapse `msc3861` dev loop.  
-  **To enable the mozilla.org test:** add to `matrix/cinny/config.json` homeserverList `"mozilla.org"`, and to the nginx CSP `connect-src`/`img-src`: `https://mozilla.org https://mozilla.modular.im https://chat.mozilla.org https://vector.im`.

-## Priority 5 — Gamer / Aesthetic / Customization
-
-### [MOVED] P5-9 · LFG (Looking for Group) Command → LotusBot
-
-**Decision:** Implemented as `!lfg` in LotusBot rather than a client slash command. Bot-side rendering works consistently across all Matrix clients; client-side enhanced cards would only be visible to Lotus Chat users and require sanitizer auditing. The bot can also support richer flows (list active LFGs, DM interested players, auto-expire posts).

-### [~] P5-15 · In-Call Soundboard — IMPLEMENTED (⚠️ awaiting live verification, D2-7)
-
-**What:** Soundboard button in the call controls bar → popout grid of the user's clips; clicking one plays it **into the call** as a real published track (peers hear it) and locally (presser hears it). Clips are **user-uploadable, just like custom emojis/stickers**.  
-**🔱 [EC-FORK] Fork side + cinny side DONE.** The fork ships `io.lotus.inject_audio` (`LotusWidgetActions.InjectAudio`, allow-listed in `widget.ts`), armed via the `lotusAudioInject=1` flag; it publishes a clip as a separate LiveKit track — a **real** in-call soundboard mixed into the call, not local-only. cinny now drives it.  
-**Shipped (cinny):**
-
-- Clips stored in `io.lotus.soundboard` account data → **synced across devices like emoji/sticker packs** (`useSoundboard` hook; `AccountDataEvent.LotusSoundboard`).
-- Upload audio (≤1 MB, ≤40 clips) → `mx.uploadContent` → mxc; play resolves mxc → authed download → `blob:` object URL (the widget can't fetch authenticated media itself) → `control.injectAudio(url, volume)` + local playback.
-- `CallSoundboard.tsx` popout in the call bar (upload / play / delete), gated on the `soundboardEnabled` setting (Settings → General → Calls, + volume slider).  
-  **Remaining:** a dedicated Settings management page (optional — upload/delete already live in the popout); a small default clip set; live verification (D2-7). Files: `utils/soundboardClips.ts`, `hooks/useSoundboard.ts`, `features/call/CallSoundboard.tsx`, `plugins/call/CallControl.ts#injectAudio`.  
-  **Complexity:** Medium — done.

-### [~] P5-20 · Quick Reply from Browser Notification
-
-**What:** Inline reply field in browser notification toasts via Notification Actions API. Reply sends as threaded reply to the triggering message.  
-**[AUDIT REQUIRED]** (1) Verify browser Notification Actions API support in target browsers. (2) Confirmed: service worker EXISTS at `src/sw.ts` — add `notificationclick` handler there.  
-**Complexity:** Medium-High.  
-**Partial Fix Applied ⚠️ UNTESTED:** Notifications now (a) show the real message body (`username: message` instead of "New inbox notification from..."), (b) click navigates directly to the room at the specific event (not the inbox), (c) `window.focus()` called on click so the tab comes to front, (d) reminder toasts also link to the specific event. Full inline-reply via Notification Actions API still needs the SW `push`+`notificationclick` pipeline (requires switching from `new Notification()` to `showNotification()` through the SW).

-### [x] P5-30 · Advanced ML Noise Suppression (Krisp-style)
-
-**What:** High-end background noise cancellation using a pre-trained ML model (RNNoise) running in the browser. Removes dogs, fans, and keyboard clicks from the mic stream.  
-**Shipped:** 3-tier setting (Off / Browser-native / ML) in Settings → General → Calls.  
-**🔱 [EC-FORK] DONE — moved in-source (2026-06).** ML denoise is now a first-class audio stage **inside** the forked Element Call: a LiveKit `TrackProcessor<Audio>` activated by `lotusDenoiseSource=1` (cinny sets it when ML is selected). The old build-time `getUserMedia`/`index.html` monkeypatch is **removed**. Because EC re-runs the processor on every (re)publish, denoise now **survives reconnects and mic-device switches** — this is the A7 fix (see `LOTUS_BUGS.md` A7, `LOTUS_TESTING.md` §D2-1). The processor degrades to the raw mic rather than going silent.  
-**Key decision:** LiveKit's Krisp filter is LiveKit-Cloud-only (we self-host the SFU); EC's own RNNoise PR #3892 is unmerged. Owning the fork let us implement the in-source stage directly.
-
-**Models — all in-source in the fork:**
-
-- [x] **DeepFilterNet 3** (48 kHz, **ML default**) · **DTLN** (16 kHz) · **RNNoise** (48 kHz) · **Speex** (48 kHz) — all four wired and selectable; dropdown ordered best-quality first. Tier default is **Browser-native**.
-- [x] **Quality tuning (2026-07):** dry/wet **attenuation floor** (~-16 dB, RNNoise/Speex only — the "robotic" fix; DTLN/DFN would comb-filter), **gate-after-ML**, **DFN level 80→60**. Floor tunable via `lotusDenoiseFloor`.
-- [x] **AEC/AGC (2026-07):** echo-cancellation ON; **AGC OFF for the ML tier** (`autoGainControl=false`, threaded through EC `UrlParams`→`ConnectionFactory`) so browser AGC doesn't fight the model; playback confirmed no AEC-defeat.
-- [x] **Reliability (2026-07):** never-silent watchdog, resume-timeout, WASM-cache reject-eviction, activate-off-local-participant, init/build leak fixes.
-- [ ] **Open verification:** real-call by-ear **A/B** — model choice, floor value, AGC on/off (RNNoise known-weak historically). `LOTUS_TESTING.md` §D2-1 / J2.
-- [ ] **GTCRN (RESEARCHED — DEFERRED):** tiny MIT 16 kHz model that beats RNNoise, but **no drop-in browser package** — needs a ~1-week from-scratch build: `onnxruntime-web` (WASM, 1 thread) in a **Web Worker** (ORT can't run in an AudioWorklet — issue #13072) behind a custom AudioWorklet ring-buffer node presenting as an `AudioNode`; model `gtcrn_simple.onnx` (~300 KB, stateful — thread `conv/tra/inter` caches per frame); we write STFT/iSTFT (n_fft 512/hop 256). Assets ~3–4 MB via the `lotusDenoise()` vite plugin. Registration checklist known (both repos, incl. the 2nd `denoisePipeline.ts` used by the DenoiseTester). **Revisit only if low-power quality is insufficient after validating the current tuning.**
-- [ ] **Desktop-only / HW-gated (future):** FRCRN or NVIDIA Maxine (RTX/Tensor only) — impossible in-browser; would run in the Tauri Rust backend + bridge a virtual mic into the webview. Detect capability; web falls back to RNNoise.
-- **Excluded:** Krisp (LiveKit Cloud only); FRCRN/Maxine on web (GPU/server-bound).

-### [~] P5-31 · Granular Voice & Screenshare Quality Controls — IMPLEMENTED (⚠️ awaiting live verification, D2-8)
-
-**What:** Let users (and room admins) adjust audio bitrate and screenshare bitrate/framerate.  
-**🔱 [EC-FORK] Fork side + client side DONE.** The fork ships `io.lotus.set_quality` (`LotusWidgetActions.SetQuality`) that applies audio/screenshare encoding params (`RTCRtpSender.setParameters`, all simulcast encodings, re-applied on `TrackUnmuted`/republish) inside EC. cinny now drives it.
-
-**Shipped (cinny):**
-
-1. **User settings** (Settings → General → Calls): Microphone Bitrate, Screenshare Bitrate, Screenshare Framerate (`callAudioBitrate` / `screenshareBitrate` / `screenshareFramerate`).
-2. **Room-admin caps**: `io.lotus.room_quality` state event (`StateEvent.LotusRoomQuality`) + `RoomQuality.tsx` in Room Settings → General → Voice (mirrors `RoomVoiceLimit`).
-3. **Apply logic**: `useCallQuality` (wired in `CallEmbedProvider`'s `CallUtils`) builds `min(user setting, room cap)` and sends `io.lotus.set_quality` on join / when settings change (`utils/callQuality.ts`, unit-tested).
-
-**Server-side enforcement (DONE — matrix repo):** extended `voice-limit-guard.py` (LXC 151) to also read `io.lotus.room_quality` and hard-enforce a **publish-source policy** for ALL clients.
-
-- **Reality (researched, primary-source, LiveKit 1.9.11):** numeric bitrate/fps caps **cannot** be hard-enforced server-side — LiveKit is a pure SFU (forwards, never transcodes); there is NO bitrate/fps field in the JWT grant, `RoomConfiguration`, server `limit:` config, or any admin RPC, and stock Element Call ignores room metadata / custom claims for publish quality. So numeric caps stay **cooperative** (our fork honors them via `min()` → `set_quality`, already shipped).
-- **What IS hard-enforced cross-client:** `VideoGrant.canPublishSources`. The guard holds the LiveKit secret, so when `io.lotus.room_quality` sets `allow_screenshare:false` / `allow_camera:false` it re-signs the issued JWT with a narrowed source list → the SFU refuses those tracks for **every** client (Element, FluffyChat, our fork). Mic always kept. Fail-open; unit-tested (`livekit/test_voice_limit_guard.py`). Admin UI: Room Settings → Voice → **Call Permissions** switches. cinny also hides the blocked buttons.
-- **Live (mid-call) enforcement — DONE:** the JWT re-sign covers new joins; for participants **already in the call**, a background reconcile loop in the guard calls LiveKit `UpdateParticipant` every ~3 s to narrow `canPublishSources`, which unpublishes an in-progress screenshare/camera **server-side for all clients** and blocks re-publish (verified LiveKit 1.9.11 auto-unpublishes on permission narrowing). Only removes forbidden sources (never grants), preserves other permission flags, no-ops once compliant. So flipping a room audio-only kills live cameras/screenshares within ~one interval.
-- **Not enforceable / deferred:** numeric server enforcement (impossible — see above); screenshare **resolution** control (`set_quality` covers bitrate + framerate; resolution needs a `getDisplayMedia` hook inside the fork).
-
-**Complexity:** DONE — client (cooperative numeric caps) + server (hard publish-source policy). Only the physically-impossible numeric server enforcement is out of scope.

-### [~] P5-35 · Desktop — Notification Click Opens Room — IMPLEMENTED (Tier B, via the P5-41 WinRT toast: click → open room, reply → send); native CI-compile-pending, runtime-verify on Windows
-
-**What:** Clicking a system tray notification navigates to the relevant room. Quick-reply from the notification toast would send the reply without opening the window.  
-**Status:** Deferred (Tier B). Note: the "can't compile-test without a Windows build environment" premise is **outdated** — CI now compiles Windows (Gitea self-hosted `windows` runner + GitHub `windows-latest`), and `windows`-crate/COM code already ships (e.g. `set_badge_count`, and the Tier A jump list). This still depends on P5-41 (the WinRT toast + custom activator), so it rides with that; it was not part of the Tier A wave.  
-**Note:** Tray icon and `matrix:` deep links already bring the window forward on most interactions. Revisit when tauri-plugin-notification gains click handler support upstream.  
-**Complexity:** High (platform-specific native code required).
-
----
-
-### [~] P5-36 · Desktop — Windows Jump List — IMPLEMENTED (Tier A); native CI-compile-pending, runtime-verify on Windows
-
-**What:** Right-clicking the taskbar icon shows a jump list with recent/favorite rooms for quick navigation.  
-**Status:** Deferred — implementing the Windows COM jump list API in Tauri requires iterating on C++/COM code that can only be compile-checked on Windows, making blind CI iteration impractical.  
-**Action when unblocked:** Revisit when a Tauri plugin abstracts the Windows Shell `ICustomDestinationList` interface, or when a Windows build environment is available for local iteration.  
-**Complexity:** High (Windows-only native COM).
-
----
-
-### [~] P5-41 · Desktop — Native WinRT Toast Notifications — IMPLEMENTED (Tier B; ToastNotification + reply input + in-process Activated; falls back to tauri-plugin-notification); native CI-compile-pending. Runtime needs a Start-menu shortcut + matching AppUserModelID to surface
-
-**What:** Replace emulated notifications with native WinRT Toast notifications.  
-**Approach:** Implement native WinRT Toast integration using `windows-rs` to enable full Action Center integration, including native Quick Reply functionality.
-
-### [~] P5-42 · Desktop — Persistent Background Sync — IMPLEMENTED (Batch 3, pragmatic keep-alive); native CI-compile-pending, runtime-verify on Windows
-
-**What:** Keep receiving messages/notifications instantly while the app is closed to the tray.  
-**Shipped approach (80/20):** rather than a multi-sprint headless Rust sync client, disable Chromium background throttling via WebView2 `additional_browser_args` (`--disable-background-timer-throttling --disable-renderer-backgrounding --disable-backgrounding-occluded-windows`, added to the existing Tauri default args) so the existing JS Matrix `/sync` loop keeps running full-speed in the tray. Windows/WebView2 only; does not block system sleep. See `cinny-desktop/src-tauri/src/lib.rs` (WebviewWindowBuilder).  
-**Deferred (not needed):** the full headless Rust sidecar — only revisit if WebView2 ever hard-suspends despite these flags (would require a second Matrix client with its own /sync + push-rule eval + E2EE-aware notification content).
-
-### [~] P5-43 · Desktop — System Media Transport Controls (SMTC) — IMPLEMENTED (Tier A); CI-compile-pending; SMTC may need an active media/audio session to surface — verify on Windows
-
-**What:** Integrate with Windows SMTC for volume flyout call/media control.  
-**Approach:** Use Windows SMTC API to expose call status, mic mute/unmute, and media controls to the Windows volume flyout/media overlay.
-
-### [~] P5-44 · Desktop — Taskbar Thumbnail Toolbar — IMPLEMENTED (Tier A); native CI-compile-pending, runtime-verify on Windows
-
-**What:** Add persistent call controls to the taskbar preview.  
-**Approach:** Implement a COM thumbnail toolbar in the application preview window, featuring Mute/Deafen/End Call buttons.
-
-### [~] P5-46 · Desktop — System Power Management (Call Continuity) — IMPLEMENTED (Tier A reference); web verified; native CI-compile-pending (Windows only; macOS/Linux no-op TODO)
-
-**What:** Prevent system sleep/hibernate during active calls.  
-**Approach:** Use Tauri/Rust `power-manager` or platform-specific APIs to block system power saving states while a voice/video session is active.
-
-### [~] P5-47 · Desktop — TDS-Styled Native Window Chrome — IMPLEMENTED (Tier A, OPT-IN/default-off, runtime-reversible); web verified; native CI-compile-pending
-
-**What:** Replace system titlebar with custom Lotus TDS chrome.  
-**Approach:** Configure Tauri window (`decorations: false`) and implement custom, TDS-token compliant titlebar controls (Close/Max/Min) for a cohesive UI.
-
-### [~] P5-48 · Desktop — Native File System Drag-and-Drop Improvements — IMPLEMENTED (recursive folder upload, web-verified: tsc/build/tests). SCOPED-OUT: `.lnk` shortcut resolution (webview never exposes a dropped file's OS path → native can't resolve the target) and "Send To" (installer/registry shell integration) — deferred
-
-**What:** Enhance drag-and-drop support for Windows.  
-**Approach:** Improve handling for Windows file shortcuts, recursive folder uploads, and shell-integrated "Send To" context menu actions.
-
-### [~] P5-49 · Desktop — Network Awareness (NCSI Integration) — IMPLEMENTED (Tier A; INetworkListManager poll → mx.retryImmediately); native CI-compile-pending, runtime-verify on Windows
-
-**What:** Proactively detect Windows network connectivity changes.  
-**Approach:** Integrate with the Windows Network Connectivity Status Indicator (NCSI) API to improve offline mode transition latency and network recovery.
-
-### [WON'T FIX] P5-50 · Desktop — Windows Hardware-Accelerated Media Pipeline
-
-**What:** Replace standard browser decoding with native Windows Media Foundation.  
-**Why won't-fix (researched):** WebRTC media (the call pipeline) lives entirely inside WebView2/Chromium — you cannot inject Media Foundation/DirectShow into WebRTC's decode path from the Tauri host. Chromium already uses the platform's hardware decoders (D3D11VA/MF) where the GPU supports the codec, so there is no separate CPU pipeline to offload. Not actionable as described.
-
-### [DEFERRED] P5-51 · Desktop — Federated "Identity Contexts" (Isolation Manager)
-
-**What:** Compartmentalize sessions, local databases, and caches into isolated "Contexts" (e.g. Work vs. Personal) with a zero-leak boundary.  
-**Decision:** Deferred (reviewed 2026-07). Multi-sprint, and it touches the auth/crypto/storage core — not worth the risk/effort for a niche need right now. Kept here with a concrete spec so it's actionable later.
-
-**Future-work spec (why it's big):** the app is currently **single-session**.
-- Session lives in `src/app/state/sessions.ts` under fixed localStorage keys — `cinny_access_token`, `cinny_device_id`, `cinny_user_id`, `cinny_hs_base_url`, plus the OIDC keys (`cinny_refresh_token`, `cinny_expires_at`, `cinny_oidc_*`).
-- Persistence lives in `src/client/initMatrix.ts`: two fixed IndexedDB stores — `web-sync-store` (`IndexedDBStore`) and `crypto-store` (`IndexedDBCryptoStore`) — feeding one `createClient(...)`.
-
-True per-context isolation would require: (1) namespace every localStorage key per context (`ctx:<id>:cinny_*`); (2) per-context IndexedDB dbNames for **both** the sync store and the crypto store; (3) a context registry + switcher UI (create/rename/delete/switch); (4) full client teardown + re-init on switch (`initMatrix` currently assumes one global client); (5) per-context settings + notification/quiet-hours state; (6) careful crypto-store isolation so device keys never bleed across contexts. **Smaller intermediate step** if demand appears: plain multi-account (fast account switch) *without* the hard isolation boundary — much less risky, reuses most of the login flow.  
-**Priority:** Extreme Low (Multi-sprint/Architectural).
-
-### [DROPPED] P5-52 · Desktop — Room-Level Sync Governor (Performance Control)
-
-**What:** Granular per-room sync tuning (frequency, event-type filtering).  
-**Why dropped (reviewed 2026-07):** matrix-js-sdk can't do **true** per-room sync filtering — all room events still come down the single `/sync` stream, so "disable typing/receipts in heavy rooms" can only be a **cosmetic client-side hide**, not an actual performance/bandwidth win. That, plus the UX-complexity risk flagged originally, makes it not worth building. If per-room quieting is ever wanted, add a simple "mute typing & receipts in this room" toggle to normal room settings — not a "governor."
-
-### [DEFERRED] P5-53 · Desktop — Local-Only "Scripting" Plugin System (Tampermonkey-like)
-
-**What:** A sandboxed environment for local execution of user scripts on Matrix events.  
-**Decision:** Deferred (reviewed 2026-07). A full WASM execution engine + script registry + management UI + security model is a large surface for a very small (power-user) audience.  
-**Recommended lighter alternative (the ~80/20) if we ever want event automation:** a built-in **automation-rules** feature — declarative "when an incoming event matches X (room / sender / keyword / type) → notify / play sound / highlight / auto-react" rules, configured in Settings. Covers the realistic use cases (custom alerts, keyword pings) with **no arbitrary code execution**, so no sandbox/security burden. Build that instead of a scripting engine if the need arises.
-
-### [~] P5-55 · Desktop — Composer Toolbar Drag-and-Drop Reordering — IMPLEMENTED (Tier A); web-verified (tsc/build/tests). Awaiting live UX check
-
-**What:** Allow users to reorder toolbar icons via drag-and-drop.  
-**Approach:** Extend the current settings-based toolbar toggle system to include a drag-and-drop UI mode in the composer settings, allowing users to personalize their icon order.
-
-### [~] P5-56 · Desktop — Windows "Focus Assist" (DND) Sync — IMPLEMENTED (Tier B; SHQueryUserNotificationState poll → suppresses notifications+sounds via the quiet-hours gate); native CI-compile-pending, runtime-verify on Windows
-
-**What:** Automatically toggle notification state based on Windows Focus Assist.  
-**Approach:** Integrate with the Windows `NotificationCenter` / `Focus` state via Tauri/Rust to automatically enable/disable Lotus Chat's internal notification suppression mode when Windows Focus Assist is toggled.
-
-### [~] P5-57 · Desktop — Visual Draft Persistence Indicator — IMPLEMENTED (Tier A); web-verified. Awaiting live UX check

-## 🚀 Features to Add
-
-- [ ] **Mobile Audit:** Comprehensive audit of all features in LOTUS_FEATURES.md for mobile PWA usability and layout responsiveness.
-
----
-
-## Blocked Features
-
-These features are confirmed desirable but cannot be built until the listed dependency is resolved.
-Check back after each Synapse upgrade — re-run `/matrix/client/versions` and `unstable_features` to see if they've become available.
-
-### [BLOCKED] · Live Location Sharing (MSC3489 + MSC3672)
-
-**Blocked by:** `org.matrix.msc3489 = false` AND `org.matrix.msc3672 = false` on `matrix.lotusguild.org` (confirmed from unstable_features).  
-**What it would do:** Real-time GPS beacon streaming upgrading the existing static location share.  
-**Action when unblocked:** Both MSCs must be enabled on the homeserver before any client work.
-
-### [BLOCKED] · Reaction / Relation Redaction (MSC3892)
-
-**Blocked by:** `org.matrix.msc3892` = false on `matrix.lotusguild.org`  
-**What it would do:** Cleanly remove a reaction without redacting the parent message.  
-**Current behavior:** Full event redaction — acceptable fallback, no user-facing issue.  
-**Action when unblocked:** Find `onReactionToggle` redaction call site; swap in MSC3892 endpoint with fallback.
-
-### [BLOCKED] · Room Preview Before Joining (MSC3266)
-
-**Blocked by:** `GET /_matrix/client/v1/rooms/{roomId}/summary` returns `M_UNRECOGNIZED` 404 — endpoint not implemented in Synapse 1.155. Config flag `msc3266_enabled: true` is set but has no effect; Synapse appears not to have shipped a stable implementation at the v1 path. Verified 2026-06-18.  
-**What it would do:** Show room name, topic, avatar, member count before joining.  
-**Action when unblocked:** Re-test after each future Synapse upgrade.
-
-### [BLOCKED] · Thread Subscriptions (MSC4306)
-
-**Blocked by:** `org.matrix.msc4306` = false on `matrix.lotusguild.org`  
-**What it would do:** Follow a thread without posting; get notifications for replies.  
-**Action when unblocked:** Add "Follow thread" button in the thread panel header (depends on #P3-8 Thread Panel).
-
-### [DONE] · Report User (MSC4260) ✅
-
-**Previously blocked by:** Server spec v1.12, but `POST /_matrix/client/v3/users/{userId}/report` was confirmed **200** on 2026-06-18 (live since Synapse 1.133.0).  
-**What it does:** Reports a specific user to homeserver admins (separate from reporting a message).  
-**Note:** Report Message already exists in upstream Cinny. This adds Report User to the profile panel.  
-**Implemented 2026-06-18:** `ReportUserModal.tsx` added at `src/app/features/room/ReportUserModal.tsx`. Button wired into `UserRoomProfile.tsx` between UserModeration and UserDeviceSessions (hidden for own profile). Category dropdown + reason text, inline success/error feedback, auto-close 1500ms after success.
-

-
-## Pending Audits
-
-### [ ] Audit-3 · Profile banner image — Matrix protocol support
-
-Research whether Matrix spec or MSC4133 (v1.16) defines a standard profile banner field. `uk.tcpip.msc4133.stable = true` on our server — check if a `banner_url` or similar field is defined. If no cross-client standard exists, do not implement.

-## 📚 Implementation Reference
-
-Exhaustive, low-level implementation details for backlog items. Follow these patterns to ensure code is "Lotus-perfect" (idiomatic, performant, and TDS-compliant).
-
-### P3-8 · Thread Panel (Full Side Drawer)
-
-**Architecture:** Mirror the `MembersDrawer` pattern but with a specialized timeline.
-
-- **State (`src/app/state/room/thread.ts`):**
-  ```typescript
-  export const activeThreadIdAtom = atom<string | null>(null);
-  ```
-- **Layout (`src/app/features/room/Room.tsx`):** Insert `ThreadPanel` conditionally alongside `RoomTimeline`:
-  ```tsx
-  {
-    activeThreadId && (
-      <>
-        <Line variant="Background" direction="Vertical" size="300" />
-        <ThreadPanel roomId={roomId} threadId={activeThreadId} />
-      </>
-    );
-  }
-  ```
-- **Component (`src/app/features/room/thread/ThreadPanel.tsx`):** Use `room.getThread(threadId)` from the SDK. Render a `Header` with a "Close" button that sets `activeThreadIdAtom` to `null`. Reuse `RoomTimeline` but pass a filtered `EventTimelineSet`. Use `thread.timelineSet` directly for the most accurate thread view.
-
----
-
-### P4-4 · Math / LaTeX Rendering
-
-**Mechanism:** KaTeX injection into the HTML parser.
-
-- **Sanitizer (`src/app/utils/sanitize.ts`):** Allow KaTeX-specific tags and classes (e.g., `span`, `annotation`, `math`). Use a specialized allowed list for math blocks.
-  > [Gemini_Found] `sanitize.ts` uses **`sanitize-html`** (not DOMPurify) with an explicit allowlist (`allowedTags`) and `disallowedTagsMode: 'discard'`. All MathML tags are currently absent from the allowlist and are silently stripped. Update `permittedHtmlTags` to include: `<math>`, `<mi>`, `<mo>`, `<mn>`, `<ms>`, `<mtext>`, `<mspace>`, `<mrow>`, `<mfrac>`, `<msqrt>`, `<mroot>`, `<mstyle>`, `<merror>`, `<mpadded>`, `<mphantom>`, `<mfenced>`, `<menclose>`, `<msub>`, `<msup>`, `<msubsup>`, `<munder>`, `<mover>`, `<munderover>`, `<mmultiscripts>`, `<mtable>`, `<mtr>`, `<mtd>`, `<maligngroup>`, `<malignmark>`, and `annotation`. Also add the required MathML attributes (e.g. `xmlns`, `display`, `mathvariant`) to `permittedTagToAttributes`.
-- **Parser (`src/app/plugins/react-custom-html-parser.tsx`):** Detect `$ ... $` and `$$ ... $$` patterns in text nodes:
-  ```tsx
-  if (node.type === 'text') {
-    const parts = node.data.split(/(\$\$.*?\$\$|\$.*?\$)/g);
-    return parts.map((p) => {
-      if (p.startsWith('$')) return <KaTeX math={p.replace(/\$/g, '')} />;
-      return p;
-    });
-  }
-  ```
-- **CSS (`src/app/styles/CustomHtml.css.ts`):** Import `katex/dist/katex.min.css` only when a math block is rendered to save initial bundle size.
-
----
-
-### P4-6 · OIDC / SSO Next-Gen Auth (MSC3861)
-
-**Mechanism:** Matrix Authentication Service (MAS) Integration.
-
-- **Architecture:** Shift from password-based `/login` to OAuth2 `authorization_code` flow.
-- **Key Files:** `src/app/pages/auth/Login.tsx` and `src/app/hooks/useAuth.ts`.
-- **Implementation:** Use `oidc-client-ts` or a similar lightweight OIDC library. Check for `m.authentication` in `/.well-known/matrix/client`. Redirect to the MAS authorization endpoint. Handle the callback in a new `OidcCallback` route and store the OIDC `refresh_token`.
-
----
-
-### P5-1 · Custom Accent Color Picker (Non-TDS only)
-
-**Mechanism:** Dynamic CSS variable injection.
-
-- **Setting (`src/app/state/settings.ts`):** Add `customAccentColor: string` (hex).
-- **Manager (`src/app/pages/ThemeManager.tsx`):** Inside the `useEffect` that monitors theme changes:
-  ```typescript
-  if (!lotusTerminal && customAccentColor) {
-    document.documentElement.style.setProperty('--lt-accent-orange', customAccentColor);
-    document.documentElement.style.setProperty('--lt-accent-orange-glow', `${customAccentColor}80`);
-  }

-### P5-15 · In-Call Soundboard
-
-**Mechanism:** Local-to-Global Audio Bridge via Web Audio API.
-
-- Create an `AudioContext` and a `MediaStreamDestinationNode`.
-- Create an `AudioBufferSourceNode` for each clip.
-- Route the mic `MediaStream` and the clip source to the destination node.
-- Pass the destination's `.stream` to the call bridge.
-
-> ⚠️ **[Gemini_Found — CORRECTED]** Gemini originally suggested using LiveKit's `LocalAudioTrack.replaceTrack()` to mix audio into the call stream. This is **not possible** from Lotus Chat's realm: Element Call runs in a **cross-origin iframe** controlled via `matrix-widget-api` (postMessage). LiveKit's JS SDK and its `LocalAudioTrack` live inside EC's sandboxed context — inaccessible from our code. This directly contradicts the confirmed constraint already listed in the Server Capabilities table: _"Cindy CANNOT inject audio into EC call stream — In-call soundboard must be redesigned as local-only."_ The soundboard must be a local-playback-only feature (output through the user's speakers, not mixed into the call audio stream).
->
-> 🔱 **[EC-FORK — RESOLVED]** Both the original claim and the earlier "practical blocker still holds" correction are now **outdated**. EC is same-origin **and** we own the source, so we no longer reach into EC's module scope from cinny — instead the fork **exposes the inject point itself**: the `io.lotus.inject_audio` widget action (`LotusWidgetActions.InjectAudio`) publishes a clip as a separate LiveKit track from inside EC. A **real** in-call soundboard (mixed into the call, not local-only) is therefore unblocked, and the cinny-side soundboard UI is now **built** (P5-15 above): uploadable clips played into the call via this action, stored in `io.lotus.soundboard` account data.

-### P5-20 · Quick Reply from Browser Notification
-
-**Mechanism:** Service Worker `notificationclick` Action.
-
-> [Gemini_Found] Implementation detail: `serviceWorkerRegistration.showNotification()` should be used instead of `new Notification()` so that the service worker can listen to the `notificationclick` event. `new Notification()` creates notifications that are bound to the client page, not the SW.
-
-```typescript
-// src/sw.ts
-self.addEventListener('notificationclick', (event) => {
-  if (event.action === 'reply' && event.reply) {
-    const { roomId, threadId } = event.notification.data;
-    const session = sessions.get(event.clientId);
-    fetch(`${session.baseUrl}/_matrix/client/v3/rooms/${roomId}/send/m.room.message`, {
-      method: 'POST',
-      headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${session.accessToken}` },
-      body: JSON.stringify({
-        msgtype: 'm.text',
-        body: event.reply,
-        'm.relates_to': threadId ? { rel_type: 'm.thread', event_id: threadId } : undefined,
-      }),
-    });
-  }
-});

-### P5-30 · Advanced ML Noise Suppression — Model Roadmap
-
-See shipped implementation in LOTUS_FEATURES.md → "Noise Suppression (Advanced Multi-Tier)".
-
-**Models status:**
-
-- **RNNoise** (sapphi, 48 kHz) — ✅ working, default fallback. Keep — runs on any hardware.
-- **Speex** (sapphi, 48 kHz) — ✅ working, low value; candidate to drop.
-- **DTLN** (@workadventure, 16 kHz) — 🟡 wired; sample-rate fix applied (was robotic at 48 kHz). **TODO: verify in a real call.** Narrowband (16 kHz) = slightly telephone-y even when correct.
-
-**Constraints:** client-side AudioWorklet, fully self-hosted, no GPU, self-hosted SFU (no LiveKit Cloud).
-
-**Roadmap:**
-
-- [ ] Verify DTLN 16 kHz fix in a real call.
-- [ ] **DeepFilterNet 3** — best self-hostable upgrade: Rust→WASM, CPU real-time, 48 kHz fullband. Self-host `df_bg.wasm` + DFN3 ONNX model; wire a 48 kHz worklet. Audio quality unverifiable without a real-call test.
-- [ ] **Desktop-only / HW-gated:** FRCRN (Alibaba) or NVIDIA Maxine (RTX/Tensor only). Runs in Tauri Rust backend + bridges a virtual mic into the webview. Must detect capability; web + weak HW falls back to RNNoise/DTLN.
-
----
-
-### P5-31 · Granular Voice & Screenshare Quality Controls
-
-**Mechanism:** WebRTC Encoding Parameters + Backend Quality Guard.
-
-- **State Event:** `io.lotus.room_quality` (state key `""`) containing:
-  ```json
-  { "audio_bitrate": 128000, "screen_max_res": "1080p", "screen_max_fps": 60 }
-  ```
-- **Screenshare:** In `src/app/plugins/call/CallControl.ts`, map the "Quality" setting to `getDisplayMedia` constraints.
-- **Audio Bitrate:** After the call joins, find the `RTCRtpSender` for the audio track:
-  ```typescript
-  const sender = peerConnection.getSenders().find((s) => s.track?.kind === 'audio');
-  const params = sender.getParameters();
-  params.encodings[0].maxBitrate = roomBitrate || 128000;
-  await sender.setParameters(params);
-  ```
-- **Backend Sidecar:** Extend `voice-limit-guard.py` (LXC 151) to fetch `io.lotus.room_quality` and inject limits into the LiveKit JWT or return them as an authorized config packet.

-### [x] P5-40 · Desktop — Proactive Update Notifications (Tauri) — DONE (already shipped: `TauriUpdateFeature` in ClientNonUIFeatures.tsx polls every 12h + fires the sticky update toast)
-
-**Key Files:** `src/app/hooks/useTauriUpdater.ts`, `src/app/pages/client/ClientNonUIFeatures.tsx`, `src/app/features/toast/LotusToastContainer.tsx`.
-
-1. Create a `TauriUpdateFeature` component. Use `useTauriUpdater()` to get the `check` function and `status`.
-2. In a `useEffect`, call `check()` on mount and then on a `setInterval` (every 12 hours).
-3. When status transitions to `{ state: 'available', version: '...' }`, fire a Lotus Toast: "Lotus Chat v[version] is available!" with an "Update" button that calls `install()`.
-4. Store `lastCheck` timestamp in `localStorage` to prevent redundant checks on refresh.
-
----
-
-### Mobile Bookmarks Visibility Fix
-
-**Issue:** `ClientLayout.tsx` explicitly restricts `BookmarksPanel` to `ScreenSize.Desktop` (lines 51-56).
-
-```tsx
-// ClientLayout.tsx
-{
-  bookmarksOpen && (
-    <BookmarksPanel
-      onClose={() => setBookmarksOpen(false)}
-      isMobile={screenSize !== ScreenSize.Desktop}
-    />
-  );
-}
-```
-
-`BookmarksPanel.tsx` already supports the `isMobile` prop (line 127) to enable full-screen absolute positioning. No other changes required.
-
----
-
-### Remind Me Later (Slack-style)
-
-**Mechanism:** Account Data + Timer/Service Worker.
-
-- **Storage (`src/app/hooks/useReminders.ts`):** Store in account data `io.lotus.reminders` as `Array<{ id: string, roomId: string, eventId: string, timestamp: number }>`.
-- **Context Menu (`src/app/features/room/message/MessageContextMenu.tsx`):** Add "Remind me" option → opens date/time picker modal (reuse `JumpToTime.tsx` logic).
-- **Trigger (foreground):** `setTimeout` in a hook inside `ReminderMonitor` in `ClientNonUIFeatures.tsx` → pushes to `toastQueueAtom` in `state/toast.ts` when due.
-- **Trigger (background):** Use Service Worker — `setTimeout` in the main thread will not fire when the PWA is suspended.
-
----
-
-### Mobile Usability Audit — Methodology
-
-1. **Viewport & Touch:** All interactive elements must have at least `44px × 44px` touch targets. Audit for horizontal overflow (horizontal scrolling must be disabled).
-2. **Modal Responsiveness:** All modals (Settings, Profile, etc.) MUST cover the full screen on mobile, not float as overlays.
-3. **Sidebar / Panels:** On mobile, sidebar panels (Members, Bookmarks, Media) must become full-screen overlays (using a `Drawer` or `Modal` pattern) rather than side-by-side flexbox panels.
-4. **Input & Composer:** Ensure the composer doesn't get obscured by the mobile keyboard. Test focus trap and blur behaviors.

-## Implementation Notes
-
-### ⚠️ TDS DESIGN LAW (repeated here for emphasis)
-
-> Every TDS color, animation, glow, border, shadow, and font value MUST come from `/root/code/web_template/base.css`.  
-> Never hardcode hex values. Never invent CSS variable names.  
-> Key variables: `--lt-accent-orange` · `--lt-accent-cyan` · `--lt-accent-green` · `--lt-glow-*` · `--lt-box-glow-*` · `--lt-border-color` · `--lt-font-mono`  
-> Reference implementation: `/root/code/tinker_tickets/` (markdown.js, base.js, ticket.css)  
-> This applies without exception to every task marked `[IMPROVE]`, `[Build]`, or any UI change.
-
-### Design Rules
-
-- All new components must respect both TDS dark (`LotusTerminalTheme`) and TDS light (`LotusTerminalLightTheme`) modes
-- Non-TDS theme work (custom accent color, theme presets) uses vanilla-extract theme files — match the pattern in `src/lotus-terminal.css.ts`
-- Code syntax highlighting token classes: `.tok-kw .tok-str .tok-num .tok-cmt .tok-fn` (defined in `web_template/base.css`)
-- `folds AvatarImage` does NOT accept children — wrap Avatar components externally for overlays/frames/borders
-
-### CI/CD Pipeline
-
-```
-edit → commit → git push origin lotus
-→ Gitea Actions: tsc --noEmit, eslint, prettier (~3 min)
-→ Webhook: lotus_deploy.sh on LXC 106 polls CI, then npm ci && npm run build → rsync
-→ Live at chat.lotusguild.org (~11 min total)
-```
-
-### Per-Feature Checklist (before marking complete)
-
-- [ ] `npx tsc --noEmit` — zero TypeScript errors
-- [ ] `npx eslint src/` — zero new errors (warnings OK if pre-existing)
-- [ ] `npx prettier --check src/` — formatting passes
-- [ ] `README.md` updated (Lotus-custom features only — not upstream Cinny features)
-- [ ] `landing/index.html` updated if the feature appears in the comparison table
-- [ ] Visually tested at `chat.lotusguild.org` after CI deploys

+
+### Local Development
+
+Lotus Chat is a **pure client — there is no backend of its own to run.** It talks directly to a Matrix homeserver (Synapse) over HTTPS, so the only thing you run locally is the Vite dev server; it connects to a real homeserver for all data. If you were looking for "the backend to pair with it," there isn't one — that's the homeserver.
+
+**Prerequisites:** Node 20+ (CI builds on Node 24) and npm.
+
+```bash
+npm ci        # deps; @lotusguild/* come from our Gitea npm registry (public read — no auth/token needed)
+npm start     # Vite dev server → http://localhost:8080
+```
+
+The dev server defaults to **port 8080** (`vite.config.js`); if 8080 is already in use it falls through to 8081+, so check the "Local:" URL Vite prints on startup. If it boots but the page renders blank, it's almost always a failed module/asset resolution, not a "missing backend" — open the devtools console and read the first error.
+
+**Which homeserver / logging in:** `config.json` sets `defaultHomeserver: 0` → `matrix.lotusguild.org`, so you sign in with your normal `@you:matrix.lotusguild.org` account. That homeserver is **live production** — anything you send is real, so keep test traffic to a DM with yourself or a throwaway room. To develop fully isolated instead, point `config.json` at a throwaway `matrix.org` account (already in `homeserverList`) or a local Synapse.
+
+- **SSO / OIDC works from localhost.** Login goes through Authelia via OIDC dynamic registration; the provider redirects back to `http://localhost:8080/…` and the client registers that redirect on the fly, so no server-side allow-listing is needed. After the callback you may see a `GET …/_matrix/media/v1/thumbnail/… 404` — that's just a missing avatar thumbnail, **not** a login failure.
