Add cross-platform process scanning that detects running games and apps,
then broadcasts them as Rich Presence activities via the existing Phase 1
pipeline (activityStore -> WS -> other users).
- games.json dictionary with 26 entries (games, Spotify, VLC, OBS)
- activityDetector module: polls OS process list every 15s via execFile,
matches against dictionary, emits IPC on state change only
- IPC bridge in main.ts/preload.ts with cleanup on quit
- Frontend activityBridge subscribes to IPC and feeds activityStore
- Supports Windows (tasklist CSV), macOS (ps -c), Linux (ps)
- Task 7: Create activityStore (Zustand) with Map<userId, Activity[]>, showActivity toggle,
debounced pushActivities, and reset on logout
- Task 8: Wire WS integration — presence_update propagates activities to store,
ready payload initializes userActivities and showActivity (via setState to avoid side effects)
- Task 9: Create ActivityCard component with compact/full modes, type-colored labels,
elapsed time display, asset images, and fallback to customStatus
- Task 10: Upgrade ActivityPanel to three groups — active friends (full cards, no header),
online friends (compact), offline friends — using getPrimaryActivity for grouping
- Task 11: Upgrade MemberSidebar to show compact ActivityCards instead of raw customStatus
- Task 12: Add showActivity toggle in AccountPanel settings (Activity Status section)
with API persistence and store sync
- Accept showActivity boolean in PATCH /api/users/@me body
- Validate and persist as integer in DB
- Update ConnectionManager cache on toggle
- Broadcast empty activities via presence_update when toggled off
- Add validateActivities() with full field validation against ACTIVITY_LIMITS
- Add handleActivityUpdate() with showActivity gate and rate limiting
- Enhance handlePresenceUpdate() to include activities in broadcast payload
- Update status cache via connectionManager.setUserStatus() on presence change
- Wire activity_update case into event router switch statement
Add Rich Presence infrastructure to ConnectionManager:
- Four new Maps: userActivities, userShowActivity, userStatuses, lastActivityUpdate
- Public accessors: set/get/clear activities, showActivity, status, rate limit check
- Cleanup in finalizeDisconnect() and forceDisconnectUser()
- Cache showActivity and status from DB at auth time in buildReadyPayload()
- Assemble userActivities snapshot in ready payload with customStatus fallback
- Include activities: [] in offline presence_update broadcast
- Add Activity, ActivityType, ActivityTimestamps, ActivityAssets types to shared types
- Add activity_update client event and activities field on presence_update server event
- Add userActivities to ready payload and showActivity to User/UpdateUserRequest
- Create shared activities.ts with ACTIVITY_LIMITS, ACTIVITY_PRIORITY, getPrimaryActivity
- Add show_activity column to users table (schema + migration)
- Update sanitizeUser with isSelf parameter; only include showActivity for self
- Fix .map(sanitizeUser) calls to use arrow wrapper to prevent index-as-boolean bug
- Mark auth routes (register/login) as isSelf=true since they return own user data
Use logical OR when merging fetched metadata so null values from
failed og: extraction don't destroy valid defaults (e.g. YouTube
thumbnail set before the fetch).
YouTube may block og:image extraction via BackspaceBot user-agent.
Use img.youtube.com/vi/{ID}/hqdefault.jpg as a guaranteed thumbnail
that doesn't require metadata fetching. If og:image is successfully
fetched, it overwrites the fallback.
YouTube's embed API requires knowing the embedding origin to authorize
playback. The referrerPolicy="no-referrer" was stripping the Referer
header, and the missing origin param meant youtube-nocookie.com couldn't
verify the embed source, causing Error 153 (video player configuration
error). Fix: pass origin param explicitly and let the browser send the
default referrer.
1. Video aspect ratio: remove container border/overflow-hidden, use
preload="metadata" so browser knows dimensions before play
2. YouTube Error 153: remove sandbox attr (too restrictive), add full
allow permissions (encrypted-media, accelerometer, gyroscope, etc.)
3. Google Images not displaying: detect image Content-Type from HTTP
response in metadataFetcher, override classifier to create image
embed for URLs that serve image/* content
4. Audio seeking broken: add HTTP Range request support in uploads
route (Accept-Ranges, Content-Range, 206 Partial Content)
- Fix ?? to || in metadataFetcher.ts to handle empty strings from Cheerio
- Fix stale embeds on message edit: delete old embeds synchronously before
broadcast, then resolve new ones async (all 4 edit paths: REST+WS, msg+DM)
- Revert unrelated MessageList.tsx scroll threshold change (5000 not 150)
- Remove duplicate embed indexes from migrateAddIndexes (kept standalone ones)
- chatStore: normalize embeds to [] in addMessage, addRealtimeMessage, and updateMessage to guard against missing field from older servers/federation
- useWebSocket: add embeds_resolved and dm_embeds_resolved cases that patch the in-memory message cache when the server broadcasts resolved embed data
- useWebSocket: normalize embed image URLs for remote origins in message_created, message_updated, dm_message_created, dm_message_updated, and the new embeds_resolved handlers
Switches Message.tsx from client-side URL metadata fetching (old Embed.tsx)
to server-driven embed objects via message.embeds[]. Delegates attachment
rendering to AttachmentRenderer. Removes firstUrl extraction and urlRegex.
Integrate embed infrastructure into the complete message flow:
- messages.ts: batch-fetch embeds in GET, resolve on POST, re-resolve on PATCH
- dm.ts: same pattern for DM messages with isDm=true
- search.ts: include embeds in all 4 search/around endpoints
- events.ts: embed resolution in WS message create/edit for both space and DM
- Fix embedClassifier.ts type errors (regex match undefined → null)
- Add embeds: [] to all inline MessageWithUser/DmMessageWithUser constructions
- Add embeds: [] to chatStore optimistic message
handleVoiceDropZoneDrop called stopPropagation and clearState
unconditionally, preventing container's handleContainerDrop from
firing when dropping a channel onto a voice channel. Add early
return for non-voiceUser drags so channel/category drops bubble
through to the container handler correctly.
Port the SpaceSidebar normalization pattern: convert 'before B'
to 'after A' so only one drop indicator renders at any gap.
Fixes double-line visual glitch and unreliable drops when cursor
is between two channels. Also adjust indicator offsets from
top-0/bottom-0 to -top-[1px]/-bottom-[1px] to center in the gap.
Remove activeDrag from drag-start dependency arrays to prevent
unnecessary re-renders during drag. Wrap containerHandlers in
useMemo for consistent reference stability.
When a user joins a voice channel while already connected from another
tab, the server now sends a 'displaced' reason on voice_disconnected.
The client tears down LiveKit and shows an informational toast.
- Extract VolumeSliderItem to voiceMenuItems.tsx (was duplicated in
VoiceUser.tsx and VoiceChannel.tsx)
- Add e.stopPropagation() to all imperative context menu handlers
for consistency with useContextMenu hook behavior
