-# 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` →
-"Known Element Call iframe limitations":

-
-**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
-same-origin before `audioWorklet.addModule` (was an arbitrary-code-load vector
-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
-     `listenAction` ack, gated on join (§12.1 F1).
-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.
-   Roll back = revert both.
-4. Baseline is always upstream-equivalent, so any single feature can be disabled
-   by flipping its flag/send off without touching the rest.
-
-**Blocker to step 1:** publishing the `lotus` branch needs a Gitea npm token
-(the admin token used for the `0.20.1` parity publish was deleted). Either
-provide a token for a manual `npm publish`, or stand up the Gitea Actions runner
-
- `GITEA_NPM_TOKEN` secret so a `v0.20.1-lotus.1` tag auto-publishes.

-## 🧩 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.

 ### 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
 - 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:
+
+- **Spec path (CS-API §11.5):** `<span/div data-mx-maths="…">` in `formatted_body` renders the attribute's LaTeX (block for div, inline for span); on render failure the element's child fallback content shows instead
+- **Plain-text path:** `$…$` (inline) and `$$…$$` (block) with conservative rules — escape-aware (`\$`), currency-guarded (`$5 and $10` stays text), never inside `code`/`pre`
+- **Outgoing interop:** on send, the composer converts `$…$`/`$$…$$` to spec `<span/div data-mx-maths>` HTML in `formatted_body` (extracted before markdown so LaTeX isn't mangled; off inside code), so math renders on Element and every other client — not just Lotus. The plain `body` keeps literal `$…$` as the fallback
+- KaTeX + its CSS load lazily on first math encountered — zero cost to the main bundle
+- Files: `src/app/utils/mathParse.ts` (+14 tests), `components/math/KaTeX.tsx`, `plugins/react-custom-html-parser.tsx` (render), `components/editor/output.ts` (+ `output.test.ts`, outgoing)

 ### Image / Video Captions

-Images and videos can be sent with a caption. The caption and media are sent as a single event.
+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.

+- A collapsible "Scheduled" tray in the room shows all pending scheduled messages with individual send-now, edit, and cancel buttons
+- **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). The row is pruned only once the server confirms; a failed send leaves an inline "Could not send now" error with the message still sendable/editable/cancellable.
+- **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. Edits go through the plain-text composer (rich content becomes `m.text`).

+**Privacy-friendly facade.** The tile first shows the homeserver's cached
+`og:image` thumbnail + a play button; the third-party `<iframe>` is only mounted
+on click, so nothing hits Google/Meta/etc. until the user opts in. A **Close**
+button collapses a playing embed back to the facade, and video players carry a
+Fullscreen control. Cookie-less/DNT variants are used where offered

+**Provider notes.**

+- **Reddit / Instagram / Bluesky / X** — post embeds self-size via `postMessage`;

+- Supports 2 to 10 answer options; single-choice or multiple-choice

+`PollContent.tsx` is a fully interactive, spec-correct poll card:

-### 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`

+The Forward Message dialog is a checkbox multi-select: pick any number of rooms (search + select persist across queries) and **"Send to N rooms"** forwards in one batch (`Promise.allSettled`). Full success auto-closes; a partial failure keeps the dialog open with a "Forwarded to X/N — failed: …" summary. The forwarded content (latest edit via `m.new_content`, reply-quote stripped, undecryptable refused) is built by the shared, unit-tested `forwardContent.ts`.
+
+- **Message preview**: a compact preview at the top of the dialog shows the sender + body (and a thumbnail for image/video) so you can see what you're forwarding.
+- **Optional comment**: an "Add a comment" field sends a short `m.text` note to each target room _before_ the forwarded message (sequenced per room; a room counts as failed if either send fails).
+- **Recent targets**: a "Recent" chip row (hidden while searching) surfaces the rooms you last forwarded to for one-tap selection. Successful targets are recorded most-recent-first, deduped, capped at 8, in localStorage (`cinny_recent_forward_targets_v1`) via the pure, unit-tested `addRecentForwardTarget` (`state/recentForwardTargets.ts`); rooms you've since left are dropped from the row.

+
+## Desktop App Features
+
+Native capabilities of the Lotus Chat **Tauri v2** desktop app (Windows, macOS, Linux) on top of the shared web client. Web hooks live in `src/app/hooks/useTauri*.ts` (each no-ops in the browser) and call Rust commands in `cinny-desktop/src-tauri/src/native/*`. Windows-only pieces are `#[cfg(target_os = "windows")]`, compile-verified in CI (Windows runners).
+
+### Call Continuity — No-Sleep (P5-46)
+
+Holds the system awake (`SetThreadExecutionState`) while a voice/video call is active; releases on end. `useTauriCallPower` ↔ `native/power.rs`.
+
+### Windows Jump List (P5-36)
+
+Right-click the taskbar icon → a **Recent Rooms** list of your most-active rooms; each entry opens that room via the `matrix:` deep-link. `useTauriJumpList` ↔ `native/jumplist.rs` (`ICustomDestinationList`).
+
+### Taskbar Thumbnail Toolbar (P5-44)
+
+Hover the taskbar preview during a call → **Mute / Deafen / End Call** buttons. `useTauriThumbbar` ↔ `native/thumbbar.rs` (`ITaskbarList3` + a window subclass for `THBN_CLICKED`).
+
+### System Media Transport Controls — SMTC (P5-43)
+
+Exposes call status + a mute control to the Windows volume-flyout / media overlay (WinRT `SystemMediaTransportControls`). `useTauriSmtc` ↔ `native/smtc.rs`. _Experimental — may require an active audio session to surface._
+
+### Network Awareness (P5-49)
+
+Detects Windows connectivity changes (`INetworkListManager`) and nudges the Matrix client to reconnect (`retryImmediately`). `useTauriNetwork` ↔ `native/network.rs`.
+
+### Instant Background Sync (P5-42)
+
+Keeps the `/sync` loop + notifications running full-speed while the app is closed to the tray, by disabling Chromium background throttling via WebView2 `additional_browser_args` (`lib.rs`) — no separate background process. Windows/WebView2 only; doesn't block system sleep.
+
+### Native Rich Notifications (P5-41 / P5-35)
+
+Windows toasts with **click-to-open-room** and **inline quick reply** (WinRT `ToastNotification`, in-process `Activated` event). Falls back to the standard toast otherwise. `useTauriToastActions` ↔ `native/toast.rs`; the desktop notification bridge routes room notifications to it.
+
+### Focus Assist Sync (P5-56)
+
+When Windows Focus Assist / Quiet Hours is active, Lotus suppresses its own notifications + sounds (reuses the quiet-hours gate). `useTauriFocusAssist` + `focusAssistActiveAtom` ↔ `native/focus_assist.rs` (`SHQueryUserNotificationState`).
+
+### Linux parity + cross-platform extras (P6-1)
+
+Rounds out the native app beyond Windows (macOS out of scope):
+
+- **No-sleep during calls on Linux** — a D-Bus `org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver` inhibit (zbus) keeps the display awake mid-call, matching the Windows behavior. `native/power.rs`.
+- **Launcher unread badge on Linux** — best-effort Unity `LauncherEntry` D-Bus signal (Ubuntu/Dash-to-Dock/KDE), mirroring the Windows taskbar badge.
+- **Launch on login** — `tauri-plugin-autostart` + a **Settings → General "Launch on login"** toggle (desktop-only).
+- **Tray "Do Not Disturb"** — a tray checkbox that silences Lotus notifications (feeds `manualDndAtom` into the same quiet-gate as Focus Assist). `useTauriDnd`.
+
+### Custom Window Chrome (P5-47)
+
+Opt-in (Settings → General → **Custom Window Chrome**): replaces the OS title bar with a TDS-styled titlebar (min / max / close + drag region), runtime-reversible via `set_decorations`. `features/desktop/TitleBar.tsx` + `useTauriWindowChrome` ↔ `native/chrome.rs`.
+
+### Proactive Update Toast (P5-40)
+
+Checks for a new desktop release every 12h and offers a one-click update. `TauriUpdateFeature` (ClientNonUIFeatures) + `useTauriUpdater`.
+
+### Cross-platform composer niceties
+
+- **Composer toolbar drag-reorder (P5-55)** — drag to reorder the composer buttons (Settings → General), via `@atlaskit/pragmatic-drag-and-drop`.
+- **Draft-saved indicator (P5-57)** — a subtle cue in the composer when the current room has a persisted draft.
+- **Recursive folder drag-drop (P5-48)** — drop a folder to upload every file inside it (all nesting levels), `utils/fileEntries.ts`.
+
+### Files
+
+- Web: `src/app/hooks/useTauri*.ts`, `src/app/components/TauriDesktopFeatures.tsx`, `src/app/features/desktop/TitleBar.tsx`, `src/app/features/room/DraftIndicator.tsx`, `src/app/utils/fileEntries.ts`, `src/app/state/{customWindowChrome,focusAssist}.ts`.
+- Native (`cinny-desktop`): `src-tauri/src/native/{power,jumplist,thumbbar,smtc,network,chrome,toast,focus_assist}.rs` + `native/mod.rs` (registered in `lib.rs`).

 # Lotus Chat — Manual Testing Guide

-**Generated:** June 2026
+**Generated:** June 2026 · **Updated:** July 2026 (added §O — threads, per-thread notifications, math, search cache, session hardening, audit wave, desktop CSP; added the **Automated coverage map** below — logic now pinned by unit tests, so manual QA can focus on the human-only surface)
 **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.

 > **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.

+## Automated coverage map — what the unit tests already pin (2026-07)
+
+**Read this before working the guide.** Much of the _logic_ these 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."

+## O. July 2026 batch — threads, notifications, math, search cache, audit wave
+
+Everything landed after the OIDC work. These mirror the checklists in `LOTUS_TODO.md` (§P3-8, §P4-1) and the outstanding-verification backlog below (P3-8/P4-1/P4-4/P4-8/N97a/AW-1…4). **⚠️ Threads change the main timeline** — thread replies no longer render inline; that's intended (see O1).
+
+### O1. Thread Panel (P3-8) — 👥 2 people help for live replies
+
+1. Hover a message → **Reply in Thread** (message menu). The right-side **thread panel** opens with that message as the root.
+2. Send text, an emoji, and a file upload into the thread; have the second person reply too.
+3. Reply to a reply _inside_ the panel.
+
+**Expected:** the panel shows the root at top + an "N replies" divider + the reply timeline (own composer at the bottom). Your sends appear immediately (pending → confirmed). A reply-to-a-reply is a proper thread reply. In the **main** timeline the replies do **not** appear inline — the root message instead shows a **"N replies · time"** chip. Clicking the chip (or a reply's thread indicator) opens the panel. **×** or **Escape** closes it; on mobile the panel is fullscreen. Scrolled up in a long thread → a **Jump to Latest** chip appears. Reload the page → the root/reply split persists; in an **encrypted** room the thread replies decrypt (not "Unable to decrypt").
+
+### O2. Per-thread notifications (P4-1, Slack-style) — 👥 2 people
+
+1. Have the second person reply in a thread **you have posted in** → expect a notification + sound.
+2. Have them reply in a thread **you have never touched** and don't @mention you → expect **silence** (only the chip's unread badge updates).
+3. Have them **@mention** you in any thread → expect a notification regardless of participation.
+4. Open the panel's **bell menu** (header) → set the thread to **Mute** → expect no notifications, the chip's unread badge gone (bell-mute glyph shown), and the room's **sidebar badge drops** by that thread's count. Try **All** (every reply notifies) and **Mentions only** (only @mentions).
+5. On a **second device**, confirm the same per-thread modes are set (they sync via account data).
+6. Room-level **Mute** (room context menu) still silences everything, including thread overrides.
+
+**Known caveat:** Mentions-only can under-notify in E2EE rooms (the decision runs before decryption). Muted-thread badge subtraction is Lotus-only.
+
+### O3. Math / LaTeX (P4-4)
+
+Send each and confirm rendering: `$x^2 + y^2$` (inline), `$$\int_0^1 f(x)\,dx$$` (block, centered), `$5 and $10 for lunch` (**stays plain text** — currency guard), and a code block containing `$x$` (**stays literal** inside the code block). **Expected:** the first two render as math (KaTeX); the last two are untouched. First math of the session may show the raw `$…$` for a beat while the KaTeX chunk lazy-loads, then renders.
+
+### O4. Encrypted search cache (P4-8) — opt-in
+
+In an **encrypted** room's message search, enable **"Persist search index on this device"** (Encrypted Rooms panel). Search, then **reload** and search the same term. **Expected:** coverage survives the reload (results without re-paginating everything). **Clear cached index** empties it. **Log out** → the cache is wiped (privacy). Toggling the setting OFF does **not** wipe (only Clear/logout do).
+
+### O5. Session hardening (N97a) — cross-tab
+
+1. Log in on a build that predates the change, then load this build → you stay logged in (legacy keys migrate to the `cinny_session_v1` blob; check DevTools → Application → Local Storage).
+2. Open the app in **two tabs**; **log out** in tab A → tab B reloads to the auth screen within a moment. Log in again in one tab → the other reloads too.
+
+### O6. Audit-wave correctness fixes (AW-1)
+
+- **Scheduled-message cancel:** schedule a message, then cancel it **with the network cut** (DevTools offline) → the item **stays** with an inline error (it does **not** silently disappear and still send). Restore network, retry → cancels cleanly.
+- **Escape coordination:** in a thread panel, open the mention autocomplete or set a reply draft, press **Escape** → it dismisses the autocomplete/reply **without** closing the panel. A bare Escape (nothing to dismiss) still marks the room read / closes the panel as before.
+- **Panel exclusivity:** on mobile, opening a thread while the media gallery (or members drawer) is open shows only **one** right panel (thread wins), not stacked fullscreen overlays.
+- **Emoji board (AW-2):** the **first** time you open the emoji board / autocomplete in a session, the grid **and search** populate with unicode emoji (they don't stay empty). Reactions still show a label.
+
+### O7. Desktop (Tauri) — CSP tighten + native stack (AW-4) — 🖥️ desktop build only
+
+The webview CSP was tightened and the full native module set now compiles. Smoke-test the desktop build:
+
+1. App **boots**, avatars + media thumbnails load, the **VT323** terminal font renders (Lotus Terminal theme), a **location message** embeds its OpenStreetMap map, **calls** connect (EC iframe), **deep links** (`matrix:` / clicking a room link) navigate.
+2. **Native features:** minimize to tray (notifications still arrive), a message notification is a **rich toast** (click opens the room; reply box sends), the taskbar **Jump List** lists recent rooms, in a call the taskbar thumbnail shows **Mute/Deafen/End**, Windows **Focus Assist** silences Lotus.
+3. **Console** (desktop devtools) shows **no CSP violations** during normal use. If something visual/media is blocked, that's the CSP to loosen — note exactly what and where.
+
+### O8. E2EE / call-key cluster (KE-1→4) — 👥 2 people, during a real call
+
+We shipped the diagnostics kit + a **Crypto Diagnostics** card (**Settings → Developer Tools**). During your next call that glitches (audio cutouts, "Unable to decrypt"), open it and **Download report**, and note whether the symptoms even still occur now that we're on **matrix-js-sdk 41.7.0** (crypto-wasm 18.3.1). Send me the report; the KE-1..4 diagnosis + capture guidance is in `LOTUS_TODO.md` (Encryption / E2EE), with the full original runbook in git history.
+
+---
+
+## P. Accessibility (P3-4) — needs a browser + a screen reader
+
+The compliance fixes are gate-verified in code; these confirm the runtime a11y behavior only a human + AT can check. Tools: browser DevTools "axe" extension / Lighthouse a11y, plus **VoiceOver** (macOS ⌘F5) or **NVDA** (Windows).
+
+### P1. Keyboard-only golden path (no mouse)
+
+Tab from page load: **skip-to-content** link appears first (Enter jumps to the timeline). Tab reaches the room list (rooms are focusable, active room announced), open a room (Enter), type a character → focus lands in the composer, send with Enter (or Shift+Enter per your `enterForNewline` setting). No keyboard trap; visible focus ring throughout.
+
+### P2. `?` shortcuts dialog
+
+Press **?** (Shift+/) with focus NOT in a text field → the keyboard-shortcuts dialog opens, is focus-trapped, Escape closes it and focus returns to where you were. Pressing `?` while typing in the composer/search inserts a literal `?` (does NOT open the dialog).
+
+### P3. Screen-reader: reading messages
+
+With VoiceOver/NVDA on, arrow through the timeline: each message is announced as an article with **sender name + time** — critically, this includes **collapsed messages** (consecutive messages from the same person), which previously announced only the body with no sender. Reactions, "edited", replies, and delivery status are announced with labels.
+
+### P4. Screen-reader: live announcements
+
+- **New message** arrives while you're reading → announced (polite).
+- **Someone starts typing** → "X is typing" announced once (not spammed per keystroke).
+- **Editing a message** → the edit box announces "Editing message from X".
+
+### P5. Focus return from dialogs
+
+Open then close (Escape or ×): the **room topic viewer**, a **reaction viewer** (click a reaction count), and **Search** → focus returns to the button/element you opened them from (not lost to `<body>`). Inline popouts (emoji picker, autocomplete, hover menus) intentionally keep focus in context — that's expected, not a bug.
+
+### P6. axe / Lighthouse scan
+
+Run the axe DevTools extension (or Lighthouse → Accessibility) on a room view, Settings, and the login screen. Expect **no critical/serious** "missing accessible name" or "ARIA" violations on the golden path. Report any that appear (note: far-scrolled timeline history being virtualized out is a known, accepted limitation — not a finding).
+
+---
+
+## Q. Inline Media Embeds — video / audio / post players (needs the web deploy live)
+
+The whole feature is behind **Settings → General → "Inline Media Players"** (default **on**). Everything loads from the homeserver's cached thumbnail first; the third-party player only mounts on **Play**. Test on the **web** build first, then re-check the video ones on **desktop (Tauri)** since the CSP differs. On any failure, grab the **browser console** (F12) — a blocked embed shows as a CSP `frame-src` violation naming the host.
+
+### Q1. Facade + one of each kind plays in place
+
+Paste each of these into a room and confirm a media tile (not a plain link) with a thumbnail + play button, and that clicking Play mounts the player **inline**:
+
+- **16:9 video:** a YouTube `watch` link, a Vimeo link, a Dailymotion link, a Streamable link, a Twitch VOD/clip, a Loom `share` link.
+- **9:16 portrait:** a YouTube **Shorts** link (renders tall, not letterboxed).
+- **Audio player:** a Spotify track, a SoundCloud track, an Apple Music album, a Tidal album/track.
+- **Post embed:** an X/Twitter post, an Instagram post, a Reddit post.
+
+**Expected:** ✅ tile shows the thumbnail; **no** request to the third party until you press Play (check DevTools → Network); the player then plays inline. ❌ tell me any that stay a plain link, show a blank frame, or hit the network before you click.
+
+### Q2. TikTok (the tricky one) + portrait fill
+
+1. Paste a **full** TikTok URL and a **short** copy-link (`vm.tiktok.com/…` or `tiktok.com/t/…`).
+2. Press Play on each.
+
+**Expected:** both resolve to a clean **9:16** player that **fills the box** (no big empty band on the right). The short link shows a brief spinner while it resolves via oEmbed, then plays. ❌ tell me if a short link shows only the TikTok logo/♫ and never a play button, or if the player has dead space beside it.
+
+### Q3. Post self-resize + Close / Fullscreen controls
+
+1. Play a **Reddit**, **Instagram**, and **X/Twitter** post embed.
+2. Watch the card height as the embed loads.
+
+**Expected:** the card **grows to fit** the post (no clipped/scrollbarless content, no giant empty box). A **Close** button (✕) collapses the player back to the thumbnail; video players also show a **⛶ Fullscreen** control that works. Keyboard: Tab to the play button → it shows a visible **focus ring**.
+
+### Q4. New providers (unverified) + the toggle + the cap
+
+- **Bluesky / Loom / Kick** — these are freshly added and unverified live. Paste a `bsky.app/profile/…/post/…`, a `loom.com/share/…`, and a live `kick.com/{channel}` link. ✅ good if each plays/renders inline; ❌ if any is a broken frame (for **Bluesky** especially, note whether a **handle** URL resolves or only a DID one does — grab the console).
+- **Toggle off:** Settings → General → **Inline Media Players** off → every media link reverts to a plain link tile (no player).
+- **Cap:** paste a message with **8+** media links → at most **6** preview cards render (the rest are suppressed), and the page stays responsive.
+

+
+## R. Discovery-pass fixes (DP1–DP18, 2026-07)
+
+Agent-surveyed + TPVR-verified low/med issues, now fixed (commits `8eb961b6` `db864326` `6cf18c3b` `165714e1` `8c0e2b42` `e545706c` `b1ee3ada` `4fc3f7a3` `101e4116` `4fa4327a` `c2598d21`). Behavioral items have concrete checks; the refactors just need a "still works" regression pass.
+
+### Correctness
+
+- [ ] **DP1 — slash-command errors are visible.** Run a slash command that must fail — e.g. `/kick @nobody:server` in a room where you lack permission, or `/join` a bad alias. **Expected:** an error toast appears (not a silent no-op); a successful command still clears the composer normally.
+- [ ] **DP2 — no invite re-notify on reload.** With ≥1 pending invite, hard-reload (Ctrl+F5). **Expected:** NO "you have N new invitation" toast/sound on load. Then have someone invite you while the app is open → you DO get one notification for the new invite. (👥 2 accounts)
+- [ ] **DP3 — status clear syncs across devices.** Set a status message on device A, confirm it shows on B; clear it on A. **Expected:** B clears too and does NOT re-publish the old status on its next presence heartbeat. Toggling Invisible must not wipe a real saved status. (👥 2 sessions)
+- [ ] **DP4 — tag-toggle failure surfaced once.** With the network offline, toggle a room's Favourite/Low-priority. **Expected:** a single error toast (not two) on failure; on success the tag updates as before.
+- [ ] **DP5 — soundboard packs update on room switch.** Open a soundboard in room A, then switch to room B (different pack) in the same mounted view. **Expected:** B's packs show without needing an unrelated event.
+- [ ] **DP6 — declining a call still dismisses.** Decline an incoming call. **Expected:** the ringing UI dismisses even if the decline send fails (best-effort). (👥 2 accounts)
+
+### a11y / UX (needs a screen reader + a narrow viewport)
+
+- [ ] **DP7 / DP8 — call-control buttons announce correctly.** In a call with a screen reader: the deafen button announces "Deafen" when sound is on (not "Undeafen"); Sound / Video / Screenshare announce a consistent pressed/unpressed state like Mic.
+- [ ] **DP9 — GIF picker focus + width.** Open the GIF picker, close it (Esc / click-out) → focus returns to the GIF button. On a ~320px viewport the picker doesn't overflow the page.
+- [ ] **DP10 — search-filter clears by keyboard.** In message search, toggle a filter chip (Has link / msg-type / pinned) off with Enter; the date-range clears via its menu's Clear. No mouse-only clear needed.
+- [ ] **DP11 — voice recorder fits + announces.** On a ~360px viewport, start a voice message → the recorder row doesn't overflow the composer; a screen reader can query the duration (role="timer") without being spammed.
+- [ ] **DP12 — live-call count announced.** With a screen reader, when someone joins/leaves an active call, the "{n} Live" change is announced (polite status region).
+
+### TDS colors (Lotus Terminal theme)
+
+- [ ] **DP14 — send-status + receipt colors follow the theme.** In **TDS light** mode: the message send-status "failed" icon and the read-receipt pill use the theme's darker red/blue (from `--lt-*` tokens), NOT bright dark-mode cyan/red. TDS dark still looks right; non-TDS themes unchanged.
+
+### Refactor regression pass (no behavior change intended)
+
+- [ ] **DP13 — bookmarks / reminders / notes still work** (they now share one store engine). Add/remove a bookmark, set/clear a reminder, write/clear a user note; each persists across reload; rapid consecutive writes don't clobber each other.
+- [ ] **DP15 / DP16 — state-event + account-data writes still work.** Edit room name/topic/avatar, join-rules, power levels, an emoji/soundboard pack (state events); toggle a setting stored in account data. All save + reflect correctly.
+- [ ] **DP17 — link previews render.** Open a TikTok / Spotify / Steam / Reddit link preview; provider icons render (folds icons, not raw glyphs) and brand colors look right.
+- [ ] **DP18 — member avatars/names live-update.** Read receipts + the "seen by" reader list show correct avatars/names and update live when a member changes their avatar or display name (no reload).
+

 ## 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.
+1. **O1 + O2** (threads + per-thread notifications) — the largest new surface; the main-timeline change is user-visible.
+2. **O7** (desktop CSP smoke) — CI can't catch CSP breakage; a wrong directive silently breaks media/fonts/maps.
+3. **O5** (session cross-tab) + **O6** (scheduled-cancel ghost-send) — auth-critical + a real data-loss-class fix.
+4. **A4** (in-call banner) + **A3** (ringtone) — newest call logic, hardest to reproduce.
+5. **D** (EC control sweep) — guards against the fork breaking calls.
+6. Everything else.
+

+
+## Outstanding verification backlog
+
+**Room Widgets (MSC1236, 2026-07 — needs the CSP `frame-src` widening + `nginx -s reload` first):** In a room, the header **Widgets** button (grid icon, desktop) opens a right-side panel. As an admin (PL to modify widgets): **Add Widget** with a name + an https URL (e.g. an Etherpad `https://…` or any embeddable page) → it appears in the list; click it → it renders in a sandboxed iframe in the panel; **Remove** clears it. A non-admin sees the list + can open widgets but has no Add/Remove. Check: a non-https or same-origin URL is rejected on Add with a clear message; the panel is a full-screen overlay on mobile and is mutually exclusive with the Thread/Gallery/Members panels; if a widget stays blank, the prod CSP `frame-src` still needs widening. Widgets get only benign display capabilities (they can't send/read room events in v1).
+
+**QR Device Verification (2026-07):** With two logged-in Lotus sessions (or Lotus + Element), start a device verification. On the **Ready** step you now see your own QR code plus a **"Scan their QR code"** button and a **"Verify with emoji instead"** fallback. Have one device **scan** the other's code (grant camera permission) → the showing device asks you to **Confirm**, and both reach **verified**. Check: emoji-SAS still works unchanged; denying camera shows a graceful "verify with emojis instead" message; a deliberately-wrong scan cancels cleanly. Desktop (WebView2) auto-grants the camera; web needs the Permissions-Policy camera allowance (already set).
+
+**Disappearing Messages (MSC1763 `m.room.retention`, 2026-07):** In Room Settings → General → **Message Retention**, an admin picks Off / 1 Day / 1 Week / 1 Month (non-admins see the buttons disabled). After setting e.g. 1 Day, messages older than a day **vanish from the timeline** for everyone in Lotus (toggle Settings → General → **Show Hidden Events** to reveal them again). Setting back to **Off** restores them. Separately, each user can enable Settings → General → **Enforce Message Retention** (default OFF) → their OWN expired messages then get **permanently redacted** within ~30 s (verify: OTHER people's messages are NEVER redacted by this; only your own). Note true server-side purge also needs Synapse `retention:` configured.
+
+**Mark as Unread + Low Priority (MSC2867 / m.lowpriority, 2026-07):** Right-click a room in the sidebar → **Mark as Unread** puts a dot on the row (bold name) even with no new messages; opening/reading the room clears it, and it syncs to another device. **Mark as Read** on a marked room clears it too. Right-click → **Add to Low Priority** moves the room into a collapsed "Low Priority" category at the bottom of the room list (and removes it from Favorites if it was there, and vice-versa); **Remove from Low Priority** returns it to Rooms.
+
+**Windows rich toast (D6, 2026-07 — desktop/Windows build only):** get a message notification while the desktop app is backgrounded → the toast is attributed to **Lotus Chat** (not "PowerShell"/generic) and shows an inline **reply box + Send**; typing a reply + Send **posts it to that room**; clicking the toast body **opens the room**. Previously these silently fell back to a plain toast (no reply/click). If it still falls back, check that a `Lotus Chat.lnk` exists in the Start-Menu Programs folder.

+**Invite QR is now generated LOCALLY (2026-07):** Room settings → Share Room → the QR code renders (a black-on-white SVG in a white box) with **no network request** to `api.qrserver.com` (check DevTools Network — there should be no external QR fetch, and it should work offline / behind strict CSP). **Scan it** with a phone camera / Matrix app → it opens the correct `matrix.to` room-invite link. (`api.qrserver.com` was removed from the prod CSP img-src, so a regression would make the QR blank rather than silently phone home.)

+**Unread dot on federated rooms + avatar-decoration console storm (2026-07):**
+
+- **Read receipts (regression guard — highest priority):** open several rooms and open the Home/Direct tabs (which mark all orphan rooms read on mount) → rooms **stay read**, unread dots clear and don't come back. (A prior attempt sent a receipt for the thread _root_ when a thread's replies weren't loaded, which the SDK treats as a main receipt at an old event and re-unread every room on every mark-read. Fixed + locked by `notifications.test.ts`.)
+- **Thread dot:** a room with an unread reply in a thread whose replies are loaded → its dot clears on read; for a thread not yet loaded, the dot clears once you open/load the thread. (mark-as-read now sends a threaded receipt only for a genuine loaded reply, never the root.)
+- With DevTools console open on federated rooms, the `io.lotus.avatar_decoration` `403`/`502` (and federated media) errors should **not** repeat on every scroll/mount — each failing user is now requested at most ~twice per session, so the storm (and its homeserver load) is gone.
+
+**Custom Window Chrome (Beta) fix (2026-07):** on the desktop build, Settings → General → toggle **Custom Window Chrome** — it should reload and come up with the Lotus title bar and a normal, stable feed (no screen-expand / auto-scroll-into-the-past). Toggle back off → reloads to the native frame.

+## Development Environment Setup
+#### Getting correct Node version
+- Ensure you have the correct version of node installed, specified in `.node-version`
+- Use this command from the terminal to install nvm 
+```bash
+curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.40.3/install.sh | bash
+``` 
+- Reload your terminal shell using (for Ubuntu):
+```bash
+source ~/.bashrc
+```
+- Install the specified Node version 
+```bash
+NODE_VERSION="$(tr -d '[:space:]' < .node-version)"
+nvm install "$NODE_VERSION"
+nvm use "$NODE_VERSION"
+```
+- verify the correct version was installed by running
+```bash
+node --version
+```
+and comparing the output to what is listed in `.node-version`
+#### Install npm packages
+- To install the npm packages listed in `package.json` run: 
+```bash
+ npm i 
+ ```
+### Start Development Server
+```bash
+npm run start
+```
+You should now have an active development server at `localhost:8080`, where you can make changes to the code and see the UI update in real time
 ## Features

 ### Messaging

+- Threads: reply in a thread and read/write the whole conversation in a side panel — root messages show a "N replies" chip with an unread badge (threaded replies live in the panel now, not inline in the room)
+- Slack-style thread notifications: by default you're only pinged for threads you're in or where you're @mentioned; set any thread to All / Mentions-only / Mute from the panel's bell menu (muted threads stop bumping badges; syncs across devices)
 - See who has read each message, and track delivery status (sending / sent / failed)
 - Bookmark any message and revisit saved messages from the sidebar

 - Search messages with a date range filter
+- Optional persistent search index for encrypted rooms (off by default — stores decrypted text on your device; clearable, wiped on logout)
+- On-device message translation — foreign-language messages show a "Translate" action, then an inline "Translated from <language> · Show original" toggle. Runs entirely on your device via the browser's built-in translation models, so message text never leaves your device or touches a cloud service (no Google/DeepL/Microsoft) — preserving end-to-end encryption. Pick your target language and optionally auto-translate incoming messages at Settings → General → Messages. Chromium desktop (Chrome/Edge 138+) and the Lotus desktop app only; hidden where unavailable (Firefox, Safari, mobile)
+- Write math with LaTeX: `$inline$` and `$$block$$` render via KaTeX (spec `data-mx-maths` supported)
 - Room topics support rich formatting (bold, links, italics)
 - Deleted messages show a placeholder instead of disappearing
 - Code blocks highlight syntax for JS/TS, Python, and Rust
 - Rich link preview cards for YouTube, GitHub, Twitter/X, Reddit, Spotify, Twitch, Steam, Wikipedia, Discord, npm, Stack Overflow, and IMDb
+- Inline media embeds — play videos and posts in place instead of opening a browser tab: YouTube/Shorts, Vimeo, Dailymotion, Streamable, Twitch, Loom, and Kick as video players; TikTok, X/Twitter, Instagram, Reddit, and Bluesky as inline posts; Spotify, SoundCloud, Apple Music, and Tidal as a built-in audio player. A privacy-friendly facade shows the homeserver's cached thumbnail and only loads the third-party player when you press play. Toggle at Settings → General → "Inline Media Players" (on by default)

+### 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.
