Refactor RegisterPage into a two-step flow: credentials first, then
personalization (display name, avatar upload, avatar color). Replace the
dual-panel sliding layout with conditional rendering and CSS keyframe
animations to eliminate overflow-hidden clipping of focus rings.
Supporting changes:
- Server accepts avatarColor on registration
- Auth store resets all user-scoped stores on login/register/logout
- Voice store gains resetSession() for full session cleanup
- Sync presence status to federated instances
- Propagate presence_update to socialStore regardless of origin
Remove placeholder buttons (Threads, Inbox, Help) from channel and DM
headers. Add full-text message search with backend endpoints for both
space channels and DMs, supporting filters (from, has, before, after)
and pagination. Search popover with debounced input, highlighted matches,
and jump-to-message that scrolls with a highlight animation. Includes
messages/around endpoints for loading context when jumping to uncached
messages.
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.
Root cause fix for all broken CSS variable opacity modifiers. Converted
every hex CSS variable to space-separated RGB channels (e.g. #fda4af →
253 164 175) and updated Tailwind config to use rgb(var(...) / <alpha-value>).
This makes bg-accent-rose/10, border-border-hard/50, etc. work natively
everywhere — no more currentColor fallback. Reverted all previous explicit
rgba() workarounds back to clean Tailwind syntax. Also fixed the voice
connection wifi icon SVG (was bottom-left aligned, now centered).
Replace @apply border-none with @apply border-0 on global * selector.
border-none sets border-style: none, which silently kills all Tailwind
border utilities (they only set width/color, relying on preflight's
border-style: solid). border-0 sets border-width: 0 instead, preserving
the solid style so border-r/border-l/border-b utilities render correctly.
- Add border-r border-border-hard to ChannelSidebar (both DM and server views)
- Add border-l border-border-hard to MemberSidebar and ActivityPanel
- Replace shadow-header with border-b border-border-hard on sidebar headers
- Remove duplicate mt-1 on reaction container (parent gap-1 already provides 4px)
Shift entire color palette from Discord's Ash theme to the darker Dark theme.
Redesign VoiceControlBar as floating auto-show pill, add gradient Join Voice
screen, move invite icon to server header, add voice channel user status
badges, update auth pages with subtle gradient backgrounds, and sweep all
hardcoded hex colors across 14 files to match the new darker palette.

- Fixed 'Auto' preset to default to stable 720p60
- Added persistent 'Triple-Kick' hammer to prevent bitrate throttling
- Fixed sidebar connection status sync
- Added comprehensive diagnostic logger
- Fix stale message cache: add force param to loadMessages, clearAllMessages action

- Add read_states DB table for persistent unread tracking
- Add channel_ack WS event (client→server→echo) with BigInt comparison
- Wire up unread state in chatStore (readStates, unreadChannels, ackChannel)
- Auto-ack channels on MessageList view (200ms debounced)
- Unread pill indicators on server icons in ServerSidebar
- Bold text + white dot on unread channels/DMs in ChannelSidebar
- Replace all showDms reads with data-driven isDmChannel() across 8 files
- Design system, UI polish, and component fixes from previous sessions
Phase 1 - Feature Repair:
- Fix member kick/leave: add missing db.delete() call in servers.ts
- Stabilize invite codes: return existing code instead of regenerating

- Wire DM button on FriendsPage to create/navigate to DM channels
- Add cancel outgoing friend request (DELETE endpoint + frontend)
- Add accept/decline friend request actions with WS real-time events

Phase 2 - Discord UI Overhaul:
- Remove stray borders between layout columns
- Replace shadow-sm with shadow-header on content headers
- Replace all bg-gray-*/text-gray-* with Discord color tokens
- Ensure flat color contrast (#1E1F22, #2B2D31, #313338)
Testing:
- Set up vitest + @testing-library/react + jsdom
- Add 17 tests across InviteModal, JoinServer, FriendsPage (all passing)
- Fix vite resolve.extensions to prefer .tsx over stale .js files
