addOrFindTeamMember added the team member as Member and then immediately
called apiSetMembersRole(Owner). For a not-yet-accepted (GSMemInvited)
member the core re-sends the group invitation on a role change, so every
/join and /team produced two invitations. Add the member directly as
Owner in a single apiAddMember call; onMemberConnected still re-asserts
Owner idempotently as a fallback.

Messages of blocked members are hidden, but they still marked chat item
as user mention, showing mention badge and counting group as unread in
"mentions only" notification mode:
- createNonLive passed mentions unfiltered, allowing members blocked by
admin to mention user - it is the default path, as it is only used
when full delete is not allowed;
- userReply was set for replies to user messages from blocked members.
* desktop: fix chat switch deleting the in-app updater's download
createTmpFileAndDelete registered every temp file it created in
ChatModel.filesToDelete, which ComposeView.deleteUnusedFiles() empties on every
chat open/switch/close. The updater's ~350 MB download lives in such a file for
minutes, so switching chats during it deleted the file. copyTo kept writing
through the still-open fd, so the transfer completed and progress reached 100%;
only the following Files.move failed, with NoSuchFileException on the source,
and that went into a catch that logs to stdout only - no dialog, no error, no
file.
The registration was redundant for every caller: the helper's own
finally { tmpFile.delete() } already removes the file, deleteOnExit() covers a
clean JVM exit, and Main.kt wipes tmpDir at startup for crashes. It only ever
duplicated the finally while arming a trap for long-running lambdas - the same
window also existed for the settings and themes writers.
* desktop: download the app update into a file the updater owns
Per review of #7295: instead of removing the ChatModel.filesToDelete
registration from createTmpFileAndDelete, stop using that helper for the
downloaded file.
downloadAsset now writes into "<asset name>.part" in tmpDir and moves it onto
the asset name when the transfer completes, so the download is never registered
in ChatModel.filesToDelete and ComposeView.deleteUnusedFiles() can no longer
delete it mid-transfer. Cleanup is unchanged in substance: the finally block
removes the partial file when the download fails or is cancelled (and is a
no-op after a successful move, as the helper's own finally was), deleteOnExit
covers a clean exit, and Main.kt wipes tmpDir at startup after a crash.
createTmpFileAndDelete is restored to its previous behaviour, with a comment
warning that its file does not survive a chat switch.
* desktop: reduce comments in updater download fix
* core: remove SimpleX Status preset contact
Preset contact cards are only created at user record creation
(createPresetContactCards), so this affects new profiles only;
existing profiles keep their stored SimpleX Status contact.
Removing the card shifts contact ids allocated after /create user
down by one, hence the test id updates.
* plans: justify SimpleX Status preset contact removal
* desktop: fix saving files with '[', '*', or '?' in name on Linux
JFileChooser's BasicFileChooserUI treats filenames containing
'[', '*', or '?' as glob patterns on Unix when the file does not
exist on disk. The Save button's ApproveSelectionAction then
applies a GlobFilter and returns without saving — the dialog
stays open and nothing is written.
Regression introduced in #2789 (commit 02d00944f, 2023-07-28),
which started pre-populating the filename via selectedFile =
File(filename). Before that the save dialog ran in
DIRECTORIES_ONLY mode and the JDK glob check never saw the
filename.
Fix: on Linux save dialogs, find the Save button by identity
(BasicFileChooserUI.getApproveSelectionAction() is public and
returns the exact ActionListener wired on the button) and
replace it with a wrapper that delegates to the original
action for non-glob names and calls approveSelection()
directly for glob names.
Windows (per the JDK only '*' and '?' are glob chars there)
and macOS (uses AWT FileDialog) are unaffected. Open dialogs
keep glob filtering for power-user search.
* desktop: always bypass JFileChooser glob-on-save on Linux
Earlier in this branch we added a heuristic to delegate to the
original ApproveSelectionAction for non-'[' names so that typing
'*.pdf' in the save dialog would still glob-filter the listing.
That preserved a Swing-only quirk that no native OS save dialog
implements:
- macOS uses NSSavePanel (already used in this app via AWT
FileDialog) — no glob-on-save.
- Native Windows / Linux GTK / KDE save dialogs — no glob-on-save.
- JFileChooser on Windows — has it, but '*' and '?' aren't even
legal NTFS filename chars, so users won't be typing them.
It also blocks legitimate filenames containing '*' or '?' on Linux
(legal on POSIX filesystems) from being saved, since they too get
intercepted as glob.
Replace the Save button's action with a handler that always treats
the typed text as a literal filename. The result: any filename can
be saved on Linux, behaviour aligns with macOS and with every
native OS save dialog. The open dialog is untouched, so '*.pdf'
glob-filtering there still works.
* desktop: restore directory-only save dialog on Linux
The previous commit installed the literal-filename glob bypass for
every Linux save dialog (!isLoad && isLinux), including the
DIRECTORIES_ONLY mode used when filename == null — e.g. the
"Save QR code as image" flow (saveTempImageUncompressed →
saveDialog.awaitResult() with no params).
In that mode the bypass broke directory selection entirely:
selecting a subfolder + Save traversed into it instead of approving
it, and Save with an empty filename field no-oped. Net result:
QR-code image saving was unusable on Linux.
The glob-on-save bug only arises because a filename is pre-populated
(selectedFile = File(filename)), which never happens in
DIRECTORIES_ONLY mode. Gate the bypass on filename != null so the
directory-save path keeps JFileChooser's original approve action.

* core: don't mark member support chat items read when reading group without scope
Reading a group without a scope marked support-scope items read without
decrementing the per-member support_chat_items_* counters, so members stayed
unread in the support list even after their chat was fully read. Restrict the
no-scope group read and its timed-items query to main-scope items.
* plans: support chat unread on no-scope group read
* core: update query plans for group scope read
The main-scope read and timed-items queries now filter on group_scope_tag
and group_scope_group_member_id, so they seek via idx_chat_items_group_scope_stats_all
(5-column) instead of idx_chat_items_groups_user_mention (3-column).
* plans: document query-plan and benchmark performance results
* tests: fix unreliable support item id capture in no-scope group read test
lastItemId returns the latest item by item_ts, which right after createGroup2
can be the group "connected" event rather than the just-sent support message.
The per-item read then targeted the wrong (already-read, main-scope) item and
never decremented the support counters, so the test failed regardless of the
fix (consistently in CI, flakily locally depending on item ordering).
Capture the support item id directly from the member-support scope instead,
keeping the change contained to this test. Verified: the test passes with the
fix and fails when the fix is reverted.
* tests: fix name-shadowing build error in no-scope group read test
The local pattern binding `itemId` shadowed the `itemId` helper imported
from ChatTests.Utils, which -Wname-shadowing (Werror) rejects. Rename the
local binding to `iId`.
The swipe handler is created with rememberDismissState, whose lambda is frozen
at first composition and captures a stale cItem. When a message is marked
deleted while on screen, that lambda still sees the pre-deletion item, so an
in-lambda itemDeleted check is bypassed and the quote is set, producing
SEInvalidQuote on send. Disable the swipe modifier (recomputed live each
recomposition) when itemDeleted != null so the gesture is removed entirely.
* android, desktop: fix video preview expanding into empty black area
The video message box (CHAT_IMAGE_LAYOUT_ID) never gave itself a definite
height - it took the height of its tallest child. That child is the player
surface, which has no stable intrinsic height until playback starts: on
Android an unprepared StyledPlayerView reports no video size, so its
AspectRatioFrameLayout (RESIZE_MODE_FIXED_WIDTH, aspect 0) does not shrink.
Before #6726 this was masked: the box was measured with unbounded height, so
the surface collapsed to 0. #6726 bounded the box to 2.33x width to constrain
tall images, and the unprepared surface then expanded to fill that height,
showing as a long empty black strip below the preview once a video downloads.
Give the box a definite size from the preview aspect ratio, mirroring
CIImageView. Height follows the measured (clamped) width via Modifier.layout
so wide videos on narrow screens don't leave an empty strip (the #7223 fix).
* plans: justify video preview black-area fix
* android, desktop: remove stray card dividers in server info, connect-to-desktop, appearance and migration screens
PR #6777 turned these into card screens, where SectionView draws a 2dp near-black divider between every direct child, but left content patterns that pre-date the card chrome: nested SectionViews (SMP/XFTP server detail), loose Text + Spacer + Text (connect-to-desktop device name and version), and a SectionDividerSpaced() as a middle child (Appearance with an image wallpaper, migrate-from-device "error stopping chat"). Each draws stray lines inside the card, most visible in dark/black themes.
Restructure to the sibling pattern already used by DetailedSMPStatsLayout: un-nest the server-detail sub-sections (address its own card, stats/subs/sessions as siblings; subscription rows carded), wrap each device name/version block in a single Column, and drop the in-card spacers (the adjacent-row auto-divider already separates them). Layout-only; iOS is a separate codebase and is unaffected.
* docs: add plan justifying removing stray card section dividers

* plans: document lost-click defect (press-scope race, pointerInput restart) and fixes
* multiplatform: don't cancel command click when chat list shifts under the pointer
A press is cancelled when it goes out of the node's bounds, but when a sent
message inserts into the chat the node moves out from under a stationary
pointer, which is not a drag-away. Exempt out-of-bounds cancellation when the
pointer did not move in window coordinates (within touch slop).
* multiplatform: stop pointer handler resets on chat item recomposition (lost clicks, cursor flicker)
bigTouchSlop() created a new ViewConfiguration instance on every recomposition
of every chat item; pointer input nodes observe ViewConfiguration and reset
their handler when it changes, so each inserted message killed all in-flight
presses (lost command clicks) and hover handlers (hand cursor flicker) in the
viewport. Provide a remembered instance instead.
* plans: document list-shift press cancellation and ViewConfiguration reset defects
* desktop: remove imperative hover cursor workaround, superseded by ViewConfiguration fix
The evidence that the declarative path was insufficient was gathered while
every message insertion was resetting all hover handlers (the ViewConfiguration
identity defect, fixed in 6d24bd5d4) — which alone explains those failures.
With handlers stable, the full hover matrix passes on pointerHoverIcon plus the
lossless detectCursorMove alone, so the AWT canvas write and its expect/actuals
are removed; only the icon state reset on Exit remains.
* plans: document hover workaround removal and stage-1 evidence contamination
The desktop app polled full clipboard contents every second on the AWT
event thread to update ChatModel.clipboardHasText. On X11, each read
blocks up to sun.awt.datatransfer.timeout (10s) when the selection owner
does not respond (e.g. after KeePassXC's clipboard auto-clear), making
every click/scroll wait ~9s. clipboardHasText has had no readers since
its only consumer was removed in #4398, so the whole mechanism (desktop
poll, Android clip listener, onResume refresh, expect/actual, state
field) is deleted. See plans/2026-07-11-fix-desktop-clipboard-freeze.md.
* android, desktop: save draft when switching to chat where user cannot send messages
On desktop, chat and chatId change in the same recomposition when another
chat is opened from the always-visible chat list. The effect clearing
compose state of a non-sendable chat (observer, channel subscriber,
review by admins) was composed before the draft-saving KeyChangeEffect
and ran first, wiping the live compose state before it could be saved
and then clearing the previously saved draft via clearPrevDraft.
Effects launch in composition order, so the clearing effect is moved
after KeyChangeEffect: the previous chat's draft is saved first, and
clearCurrentDraft is a no-op for it because draftChatId no longer
matches the opened chat. Clearing the opened chat's own draft when it
cannot send is preserved, as is clearing when the open chat itself
becomes non-sendable (only the sendMsgEnabled key changes).
* plans: investigation and justification for draft message loss fix
Surface the XFTP servers that hosted a file's chunks in the message info
screen (Android, desktop, iOS), so a user can see which servers they are
downloading from (or, for sent files, uploading to) whenever they want to know.
APIGetChatItemInfo now returns fileXftpServers, derived from the stored file
description (private snd descr for sent items, rcv descr for received items);
extraction is best-effort and never fails the call.

On an incoming call the desktop window blinked continuously (FileNotFoundException
from SoundPlayer.start writing into a missing ...\Temp\simplex).
Root cause: Files.desktop top-level val initializers run in any process that
touches the facade class, including a transient second instance (which reaches
acquireSingleInstance -> dataDir). Two of them deleted shared state used by the
running primary:
- tmpDir had .also { deleteOnExit() } - the second instance's normal exit deleted
...\Temp\simplex, so the primary then failed to write call sounds/recordings.
- preferencesTmpDir had .also { deleteRecursively() } - the second instance's
<clinit> wiped configPath\tmp (same anti-pattern, firing even earlier).
Make both declarations pure and do the destructive cleanup in Main, past the
single-instance check, so only the owning instance performs it (preferencesTmpDir
kept early, before any settings write). The remaining val-initializer side effects
are idempotent creations (mkdirs) that destroy nothing and are left in place.
Wide images size their preview box with a fixed width of DEFAULT_MAX_IMAGE_WIDTH
(500dp). #7125 switched the box from .aspectRatio() to a fixed .height() computed
from that nominal width; on screens narrower than 500dp, .width(500dp) is clamped
to the available width but the fixed height is not, so the top-aligned FillWidth
image is shorter than its box, leaving an empty strip below.
Compute the height from the width actually granted via a small Modifier.layout so
it tracks the clamped width, restoring the self-correcting behaviour .aspectRatio()
had. coerceAtMost(w) keeps the box within its nominal width (and bounds the
unbounded intrinsic-measurement pass), and coerceAtLeast(0) mirrors what
Modifier.width()'s SizeNode does for a negative w on a tiny window - so both
dimensions stay in range and the #7123 Constraints overflow crash cannot recur.
