call: consume self-built Element Call fork + activate Lotus features
Switch to @lotusguild/element-call-embedded@0.20.1-lotus.1 (our self-built
fork) and turn on the source-level features it adds:

- #1 denoise CUTOVER: in-source ML denoise (lotusDenoiseSource=1) replaces
  the build-time getUserMedia shim — removed the shim injection from
  vite.config.js (denoise/ assets still shipped; the processor loads them).
  Survives reconnects (fixes A7).
- #2 call-state: CallEmbed consumes io.lotus.call_state; useCallSpeakers /
  useRemoteAllMuted prefer it over scraping EC's DOM (DOM fallback kept;
  empty payloads ignored).
- #4 focus: CallControl.focusCameraParticipant sends io.lotus.focus_participant
  (works during screenshare), replacing the DOM tile-click hack.
- #5 theming: lotusTransparent=1 (native transparent background).
- #6 decorations: LotusDecorationPusher sends each member's decoration URL
  via io.lotus.decorations -> rendered on in-call tiles.

#3 soundboard / #7 quality ship dormant (EC-ready; no host UI sends them yet).

# Lotus Chat — Open Bugs & Technical Debt
**Only OPEN and awaiting-verification items live here.** Resolved findings
(fixed-and-verified, false-positives, won't-fix) have been removed to keep this
actionable — the full history is in git. Items fixed in code but not yet
verified in a real environment are in **Needs Verification** below and have
step-by-step checks in [`LOTUS_TESTING.md`](./LOTUS_TESTING.md).
> Design rules for any fix here: follow the **Native-Cinny Law** and **TDS
> Design Law** in [`LOTUS_TODO.md`](./LOTUS_TODO.md).

**Verified working in live testing (2026-06):** A2, B1B4, C1, C3, D (mic/camera/deafen/screenshare/fullscreen/more-menu/PiP). Denoise quality in D is still poor — tracked under the denoise project, not a regression.

The in-call participant grid is rendered **inside EC's app**. Previously a
pre-built npm bundle we could only style/place around; now editable source.
Items from testing, with their fork-level fix path:
- **A5 — "Focus camera":** EC supports native tile-pinning. Our bottom-bar "Focus
camera" is a programmatic wrapper that **`.click()`s the tile** today
(`CallControl.ts` `focusCameraParticipant`), and during a screenshare EC
spotlights the shared screen so a camera pin may not override it. **Fork fix:**
add an `io.lotus.focus_participant` widget action that pins a participant in
EC's layout (coexisting with / overriding the screenshare spotlight); cinny
sends it via the widget API and the DOM-click hack is deleted. _Status: Open —
Actionable (Phase 2)._
- **A6 — avatar decorations in-call:** decorations render on **our** pre-join
lobby roster (`CallMemberCard`) but not on EC's in-call video tiles. **Fork
fix:** render the decoration APNG inside EC's participant-tile component, fed
decoration slugs via widget member data. _Status: Open — Actionable (Phase 2)._
- **A7 — mic dead after EC's "Reconnect":** the mid-call "Connection lost /
Reconnect" screen is **EC's own** (our load watchdog only covers an initial
hung load). After EC reconnects, the mic isn't re-published through our denoise
`getUserMedia` shim until a clean End+rejoin. **Fork fix:** move denoise into
EC's mic-capture/publish pipeline as a first-class audio stage — EC re-runs it
on every (re)publish, so reconnects keep denoise alive natively, and the
build-time `index.html` injection is removed. _Status: Open — Actionable
(Phase 2); root cause is the `getUserMedia` monkeypatch, not EC itself._
---
## 🔴 Open — Actionable
### Calls / Audio
- **N127 — ML denoise shim is never injected in `vite dev`.** The `lotusDenoise` plugin injects only on `closeBundle` (build), so ML noise suppression is silently inactive during local dev. Add a dev-mode injection (`configureServer` / `transformIndexHtml`). Dev-only impact. _Note: this **dissolves entirely** once denoise moves in-source in the fork (A7 fix) — there is then no build-time injection to be missing in dev._
### 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
- **N105 — Service worker has no `notificationclick` handler** — notification clicks are broken when the tab is closed. Needs `showNotification()` via the SW + a `notificationclick` listener.
- **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`** in `vite.config.js` — may block correct PWA install if not handled externally.
### 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
- **No automated test suite** (`src/`) — no unit/integration tests configured.
- **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.
