Split monolithic UserSettings into AccountPanel, VoicePanel, ConnectionsPanel,
and InstancePanel tabs. Remove standalone InstanceSettings modal. Add reusable
Toggle component fixing size deformation, color inconsistency (green→purple),
and flex-shrink issues. Fix custom status clearing by always sending the field
to the server. Wrap Log Out button in glass bubble. Add subtle card depth with
borders.
Use neutral bg-white/20 for unwatched camera badge in grid tile instead
of bg-accent-rose/90, matching the local mute badge convention. Show
crossed-out camera icon in channel sidebar when a remote user's camera
is locally unwatched. Add local mute badge to both grid tile and sidebar.
Add ability to unsubscribe from remote camera tracks via context menu,
with unwatched state tracked in voiceStore. Fix click propagation through
React portals by adding onClick stopPropagation alongside onMouseDown on
both the main context menu and MoveToSubmenu flyout portal containers.
Use rose badge color for unwatched cameras (user choice) instead of amber
(reserved for server-enforced states).
- Add DISCONNECT_MEMBERS permission (bit 27) to disconnect users from voice
- Implement voice_disconnect WebSocket handler with permission checks
- Add disconnect button to voice user context menu
- Grant instance admins full permissions across all spaces
- Fix voice_disconnected handler to use federation-aware identity resolution
- Update CLAUDE.md with new event types and permission docs
Both the channel sidebar (VoiceChannel.tsx) and voice panel (VoiceUser.tsx)
now share one context menu with volume slider + conditional mod items,
eliminating duplicated portal/positioning/click-outside code from VoiceUser.
Replace the flat channel list with a single "Move to" trigger that opens
a cascading flyout on hover, preventing the menu from bloating vertically
when many voice channels exist.
Replace hardcoded Tailwind grid-cols breakpoints with a container-aware
layout algorithm that uses ResizeObserver to recompute optimal tile
arrangement. Maximizes tile area while maintaining 16:9 aspect ratio,
automatically adapting when VoiceChatPanel opens/closes, window resizes,
or fullscreen is toggled.
Add isServerDeafened to mic icon slash conditions in VoiceControlBar and
ChannelSidebar. Restructure VoiceUser badge rendering to gate on effective
state (intent OR server enforcement) instead of only LiveKit participant
intent, fixing missing badges in the voice grid for server-muted users.
- Add migration to convert legacy JSON array permissions to decimal strings
- Add runtime fallback in stringToPermissions for legacy format
- Show all permission toggles as enabled (dimmed) when Administrator is on
When a moderator lifted a server mute/deafen, the client was involuntarily
turning on the user's microphone because isMuted/isDeafened conflated user
intent with server enforcement. Now intent (isMuted/isDeafened) is never
mutated by server events. Effective state (intent || serverEnforcement) is
computed at broadcast and hardware time via centralized helpers.
- The client now dynamically resolves the user's federated identity via `getMyUserIdForOrigin` when evaluating incoming `voice_server_muted` and `voice_server_deafened` events. Previously, the client incorrectly compared the remote event's federated `userId` against the local `authStore` home `userId`, causing federated users to silently drop restriction events.
- Client-side mic/deafen toggles (`toggleMic`, `toggleDeafen`) now accurately evaluate the user's origin-specific ID against the restriction sets, preventing federated users from bypassing locks.
- UI state selectors (`VoiceControlBar`, `ChannelSidebar`) now compute `myOriginId` to correctly render the yellow server-lockdown indicators for cross-instance users.
- Replaces global `userId` tracking with `spaceId:userId` composite keys across both backend and frontend, fixing the issue where server-muting a user in one space bled into others.
- Modifies client-side `ready` event hydration to merge voice states per-origin instead of completely overwriting the store, preventing federated connections from wiping out home instance mutes.
- Excludes server voice restrictions from `zustand/persist` so stale client caches don't override the server's authority on reload.
- Fixes React component reactivity by using reactive store selections for `spaceId` instead of imperative `getState()` calls, ensuring UI lockdown indicators accurately reflect the initial websocket handshake.
When a moderator server-deafens a user, the implied mute is server-imposed
and should display amber (not red) everywhere. Updated VoiceControlBar,
ChannelSidebar, VoiceChannel, and VoiceUser to check isServerDeafened
alongside isServerMuted for amber color and cursor-not-allowed state.
Also includes smart mute/deafen toggle logic (Discord-style coupling),
server-side enforcement of mute/deafen bypass, and cleanup of server
voice state on user departure.
Add ban/unban functionality with BansPanel in space settings, voice
moderation context menu (mute/deafen/disconnect), and fix federated
space settings panels to use origin-aware API client. Show domain
indicators for federated members in MembersPanel.
Replace truncated text labels with globe pill dividers and add
federation badges to remote space icons. Remote spaces now show
rich Tooltips with "SpaceName · host" instead of native title attrs.
Disconnected instances display amber warning indicators throughout.
- Redesign explore cards with banner images, overlapping icons, and frosted fade
- Extract dominant colors from space icons for dynamic banner gradients
- Add space description/banner fields to schema with migration
- Move origin label from banner overlay to content metadata row
- Support space descriptions in settings overview panel
Move instance-level administration out of Space Settings into its own
modal. Adds admin UI for instance name, registration toggle, and
discovery toggle. Streaming limits panel relocated from SpaceSettings.
- Add InstanceAdminSettings type and GET/PATCH /api/settings/instance
- Add registration_open DB column (nullable, env var fallback)
- Auth registration and instance info now check DB override
- New InstanceSettings modal with General and Streaming tabs
- Admin shield button in UserAreaPanel (visible to admins only)
- Remove Streaming tab from SpaceSettings
Fix three federation bugs in Space Settings: icon URL was double-wrapped
through home API, upload targeted home instance instead of remote, and
updateSpace used home API client. Also restyle settings panels (User,
Space, Members, Roles, Connected Instances) with consistent section
headers, grouped cards, and improved layout.
Replace inline Save/Discard/Reset buttons with sticky glass-bubble pills
that float at the bottom of scrollable modal content. Make SpaceSettings
tab sidebar sticky with glass material. Convert RoleEditView "Back to
roles" into a sticky glass pill at the top. UserSettings Log Out + Save
always visible in a glass pill with separator. Also includes floating
position hook and popover/tooltip improvements from prior work.
Restructure SpaceSettings modal from 778-line monolith into thin
orchestrator with extracted panel components. Add full role CRUD with
permission editor (create, edit name/color/permissions, delete).
Backend: expose role permissions in GET response, accept permissions
in POST/PATCH role endpoints with BigInt validation, broadcast
pushReadyPayload to all space members on role mutations.
Wire react-easy-crop into CreateSpace so users can crop and zoom before
uploading a space icon. Adds reusable ImageCropModal component and
canvas crop utility for future use in space settings and avatar editing.
- Accept visibility and description fields when creating spaces
- Register creator in connectionManager on space creation for immediate WS broadcasts
- Return per-channel myPermissions and space-level myPermissions from GET /spaces/:id
- Populate permission maps in spaceStore from REST response
- Add reauthenticateInstance flow for tokenless federation placeholders
- Handle expired/missing tokens gracefully in autoConnectAll with visible error state
- Guard syncInstanceList against premature runs before autoConnectAll completes
Remove disabled={isUploading} from the textarea so focus() isn't silently
ignored on a disabled element. Fix ResizeObserver effect deps so the
observer is actually created after the loading spinner transitions to
message content.
Use origin-aware user ID resolution for optimistic voice add/remove
instead of always using the home instance ID. Adds getMyUserIdForOrigin
resolver (same pattern as getApiForOrigin) so joinVoiceChannel and
leaveVoice use the correct federated user ID. Also fixes WS reconnect
voice re-registration, invite URL for remote servers, and chatStore
early-load guard for unmapped channels.
The redirect effect used the shared `channels` array which could contain
stale data from a previously viewed server during async loadServerDetail.
Added channelToServerMap ownership check to ensure channels belong to
the target server before redirecting. Also persists last-visited channel
per server in localStorage for better return navigation.
The Explore page shared /channels/@me with Friends, differentiated by a
showExplore UI flag. When PiP navigated to a voice channel, the stale
flag caused MainContent to render text chat instead of the voice grid.
Replace the flag with a dedicated /explore route so the URL is the
single source of truth.
Joined discoverable servers now appear in a collapsible "Joined" section
at the bottom of the explore page, so the page never feels dead when all
servers have been joined. A mint success banner replaces the old empty
state text.
The echo gate architecture bypassed the serialized mic management chain
and introduced race conditions. Chrome's AEC handles echo properly for
both headphone and speaker users without custom intervention.
Clear stale currentChannelId when clicking Explore/DMs in ServerSidebar,
and guard AppLayout route effect from clobbering showExplore. Move member
exclusion into SQL for correct pagination/totals, surface allSettled errors,
and show context-aware empty state messages.
Send explicit voice_leave to the old instance when joining voice on a
different origin, preventing stale voice state from showing the user in
two channels. Also make WS reconnect voice re-registration origin-aware
so remote reconnects properly restore voice state.
Replace the unreliable client-side DM dedup loop in populateFromReady with
a creation-time guard (findExistingDmForUser) that checks all instances
before opening a new DM. Guards added to FriendsPage, NewDmModal, and
UserProfilePopout.
Also fixes: corrupted read_states from temp_ optimistic message IDs (server
migration + client-side validation), federation-aware closeDm/addDmMember
API routing, isSelf-based DM member filtering in sidebar/header, and WS
event error isolation.
- Fix DM welcome header avatar using home identity for correct gradient color
- Register DM channel IDs in channelOriginMap so federated DM operations
(reactions, messages, typing) route to the correct instance
- Pass origin when creating DM channels from friends list and WS events
- Add server discovery/explore page with public server listings
- Add server visibility and description fields
Rewrites socialStore to aggregate friends and requests from all connected
instances using Promise.allSettled. Parses user@domain in friend requests
to route to the correct instance. Removes !isHome guards on social WS
events so remote friend requests arrive in real-time. Shows "via hostname"
labels on remote friends/requests in the UI.
Store the original home snowflake ID (homeUserId) during federation replication
so that avatar gradient colors resolve identically across instances. Previously,
replicated users got new snowflake IDs on each instance, causing different
gradient colors. Now Avatar, UserProfilePopout, VoiceUser, StreamTile, and
VoiceChannel all resolve through homeUserId when available. Includes backfill
logic for existing federated users missing the field.
Federated users get a different snowflake ID on remote instances,
causing avatar gradients to mismatch their home identity. Apply
resolveDisplayIdentity/isSelf resolution in VoiceUser, StreamTile,
VoiceChannel sidebar, and MemberSidebar so the current user's avatar
color is consistent across all views.
Move TypingIndicator from document flow (between MessageList and
MessageInput) into MessageInput's outer wrapper using absolute
bottom-full positioning. Fixes indicator being hidden behind the
floating glass input bubble on desktop.
- Include user object in reaction_added WS broadcasts for isSelf() resolution
- Use isSelf() instead of userId comparison for reaction ownership checks
- Load remote server detail after ready event to prevent empty channel list
Add identity.ts with isSelf() and resolveDisplayIdentity() — pure
stateless functions that detect replicated-self using the immutable
(username, homeInstance) composite key. No store lookups, no data
mutation. Fixes wrong avatar gradient and missing edit/delete on
own messages in remote channels.
Also includes: optimistic message dedup fix for cross-instance
messages (content-only matching), federation toast notifications,
Username component with @domain display, invite parser, and
deploy script simplification.
Batch 1 — Bug fixes:
- Fix stale voice state on remote reconnect (clearVoiceUsersForOrigin)
- Fix logout not cleaning remote servers from store
- Fix reply-to asset normalization for remote messages
- Fix HTTPS hardcoded in autoConnectAll (store full origin, legacy fallback)
Batch 2 — Password enforcement + replication flow:
- Add connectToRemote() with home password verification before remote auth
- Auto-cascade: verify home password → register on remote → login fallback
- Replace Register/Login tabs with single password field in ConnectedInstances
- Add DifferentPasswordError for typed fallback-login UI transition
- Fallback login form shown only when remote has different password
Phase 5 of multi-instance federation. Adds a two-layer fix:
Layer 1 — Data ingestion normalization: Remote instance user avatars,
server icons, and attachment filenames are rewritten to absolute URLs
when entering the app (via WebSocket events or API responses), so all
downstream components render them correctly without changes.
Layer 2 — Outbound action routing: wsSend calls (voice join/leave/status,
typing) and file uploads in UI components now route through the correct
instance based on the active channel's origin.
Two fixes addressing architectural review feedback:
1. Snowflake ID collisions: Replace process.pid-based worker ID with a
cryptographically random value (0-1023) generated once at first boot
and persisted to instance_settings.worker_id. Eliminates deterministic
ID collisions between Docker instances that all run as PID 1.
2. Reaction API leak: Revert addReaction/removeReaction signatures to
(messageId, emoji) — the store now resolves the channel internally by
scanning its message cache, keeping routing logic out of the UI layer.
