Neither participant could get rid of a DM at all -- Leave/Delete were
both deliberately hidden for DMs during the initial build to sidestep
an edge case (removing a membership would break find_or_create_dm's
exactly-two-members assumption), but that left no way out whatsoever.
RoomMembership.hidden_at is a per-viewer display flag, not a
membership deletion: hiding a DM only sets it on your own membership
row, so it disappears from just your sidebar without touching the
other participant's copy or any messages. It's automatically cleared
(reappearing) in two cases: a new message arrives in the room
(broadcast_new_message), or find_or_create_dm resolves back to the
same room because either person re-opens it from the People list --
both count as the conversation being active again.
Also fixes two now-flaky tests (test_message_edit, test_reactions):
broadcast_new_message doing more work before returning shifted timing
enough to expose a pre-existing race where a per-user-channel frame
(desktop_notification/unread_update) could legitimately arrive before
a connection's own "joined" ack. Broadened their existing _recv()
noise-filtering helper (already used for member_updated) to cover
those types too, and used it at the two call sites that were reading
raw receive_json() instead.

Every avatar in the app (chat messages, room member list, your own
avatar in the top bar/profile, the admin user list, the room-invite
search) now shows a green/red presence dot. Also adds a global
"Appear offline" toggle in the account menu, letting a user lurk in a
room undetected -- it overrides the real connection state everywhere,
not per-room.
Backend: new GlobalPresence (backend/app/ws/global_presence.py), a
cross-instance Redis-backed connection tracker parallel to the
existing per-room Presence, incremented/decremented on WS connect/
disconnect. A new users.appear_offline column (migration
f0f6e494454a) always wins over actual connection state when computing
displayed status. RoomMemberRead gained a computed `status` field;
add_member/change_member_role/list_room_members all compute it via a
shared _member_status() helper. Connect/disconnect and profile
updates (display_name, avatar, appear_offline) all broadcast
member_updated to every room the user belongs to, reusing the
broadcast infrastructure from the earlier avatar-staleness fix, so
chat surfaces update live with no new WS envelope type needed. A new
GET /api/users/online gives the admin list and user-search a snapshot
(deliberately not live -- see backend/app/routers/users.py) for
surfaces where "accurate as of page load" is good enough.
Frontend: UserAvatar renders an optional status dot; every call site
threads status/appear_offline through from whichever data source it
already has (room members, the current user, or the new online-ids
snapshot for admin/search).
4 new backend tests (backend/tests/test_presence.py); existing
broadcast-adjacent WS tests updated to tolerate the new member_updated
noise on connect. Verified end-to-end in the browser with two real
users: presence dot flips live on connect/disconnect via the existing
room-broadcast channel, and the lurk toggle correctly forces offline
while still connected.

Bot accounts (User rows with is_bot=True), scoped API tokens (read:messages,
write:messages, manage:rooms) authenticated via Authorization: Bearer on both
REST and the WS handshake, live bot WebSocket access on the same /ws/chat
endpoint humans use, message editing (WS "edit" envelope -> message_update
broadcast, fans out cross-instance for free via the existing broadcaster),
incoming webhooks (room-scoped, no auth beyond the URL token), and outgoing
webhooks/event subscriptions (HMAC-SHA256 signed, backgrounded delivery,
creation-time SSRF validation against private/loopback/link-local targets).
Token auth is additive, not a parallel system: a bearer-token-authenticated
bot goes through the exact same room-membership/role checks a session-
authenticated human does everywhere; only read:messages/write:messages are
separately scope-gated (the two message endpoints). manage:rooms scope
enforcement, full per-delivery SSRF re-validation, and bot API rate limiting
were explicitly scoped out (confirmed with the repo owner) as disproportionate
to this phase -- documented as known gaps in backend/README.md rather than
silently skipped.
Admin portal gains a Bots tab (create bots, issue/revoke scoped tokens,
cross-room webhook visibility); RoomInfoPanel gains room-scoped webhook/
subscription management, mirroring how invites already work there. The chat
UI also gets a minimal "edit your own message" affordance -- not asked for
by the issue, but the only practical way to exercise the edit pipeline by
hand instead of only via a scripted bot client.
Along the way: fixed a real bug caught while writing the incoming-webhook
test -- offline-push notification relied on the sender being "connected" to
exclude themselves, true for WS-originated messages but not for the new
webhook path, which has no WS connection for the attributed sender at all.
Now explicitly excluded. Also discovered the REST-only test fixture never
triggered ASGI lifespan, so app.state.broadcaster/presence didn't exist for
it; moved their construction out of the lifespan into create_app() itself
(Redis client construction is synchronous/lazy) so both the WS and
REST-only paths always have them.
New tests/test_bots.py, test_message_edit.py, test_webhooks.py (full suite
now 78/78, stable across repeated runs) plus a scripted end-to-end smoke
test (bot WS join/post/edit, incoming webhook, SSRF rejection, outgoing
delivery) and a full browser walkthrough of the new admin/room UI.
