Fixes #2095. `loadChannels()` replaced the `channels` array with the server snapshot and carried nothing across, and `mergeUserChannels()` only ever ran from `init()`. So any refresh destroyed every field that exists only in the tab. **No race needed for the worst of it.** Change the region filter or toggle show-encrypted with a PSK channel open, and: - the **My Channels** section disappears — `renderChannelList()` derives it as `channels.filter(c => c.userAdded === true)`, and the server returns neither `userAdded` nor a `user:`-prefixed hash - every unread badge resets to 0 - the user's own labels vanish - `reconcileSelectionAfterChannelRefresh()` cannot find the `user:*` hash in the snapshot, so it nulls `selectedHash`, sets `messages = []`, rewrites the URL to `#/channels` and replaces the open conversation with "Choose a channel from the sidebar" ## What this does `mergeClientChannelState(fresh, prev)` mirrors `mergeWsAppendedIntoRest()`, which already does exactly this job for `messages` (#1498). Same shape: pure, takes both arrays as parameters, returns a fresh array, never aliases or mutates an input. It carries `unread`, `userAdded` and `userLabel` by hash, and keeps `lastActivityMs` / `lastSender` / `lastMessage` / `messageCount` when a WebSocket batch landed while the request was in flight and is therefore newer than the snapshot. Those four move together: a sender without its message reads as a different message. `mergeUserChannels()` now runs inside `loadChannels()`, before the render and before the reconcile, so all three call sites get it instead of `init()` alone. ## What it deliberately does not do **It does not resurrect a channel the snapshot left out.** A region-filter change legitimately narrows the list, so carrying survivors over would defeat the filter, which is a worse bug than the one being fixed. The helper only enriches rows already present in the fresh snapshot. That leaves half of finding 2 in the issue unfixed: a channel pushed by the WebSocket handler during the initial in-flight window is still dropped. That one self-heals on the channel's next packet, and the reverted preview line is overwritten by the next WS batch. Fixing it properly needs a way to tell "dropped because the snapshot is stale" from "dropped because the filter excludes it", which is a larger change than this. ## Tests `tests/unit/test-issue-2095-channels-client-state.js`, 11 cases, registered in `test-all.sh`. Part 1 exercises the helper directly. Part 2 drives the real `loadChannels()` through the existing `_channelsLoadChannelsForTest` hook with a stubbed `api()`, which is what proves the helper is wired in rather than merely defined. **Verified by mutation.** With the wiring removed from `loadChannels()` but the helper left in place, the three reproduction cases fail with exactly the reported symptoms: ``` FAIL a refresh keeps the My Channels rows My Channels lost on refresh (got ["public1"]) FAIL a refresh keeps unread badges the unread badge reset to 0 on refresh undefined !== 7 FAIL a refresh does not close an open PSK conversation the open PSK channel was deselected + null - 'user:MyPSK' ``` The fourth case, "a refresh still drops a channel the server filtered out", stays green throughout, so the fix cannot be defeating the region filter. Full frontend suite green: `sh test-all.sh` exits 0. ## Not done **No browser validation.** This is frontend JS covered by unit tests that call the production function through its own hook, but I did not run Playwright against a server, so I am not claiming a browser check I did not do. `init()` still calls `mergeUserChannels()` and `renderChannelList()` after `loadChannels()` resolves, which is now redundant and costs one extra full sidebar render per page load. Left alone deliberately: it is idempotent, and the comment there records the regression it was added to fix (`test-channel-issue-1111-e2e.js`, case 2). Worth removing separately with that e2e test watched. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
