Previously GET /api/rooms/mine was only ever fetched once at app mount, so a room added mid-session stayed invisible until a full page reload -- add_member had no way to reach an already-open client at all. Backend: ConnectionManager and Broadcaster (renamed from RoomBroadcaster) now support per-user channels alongside the existing per-room ones, so a signal can reach a user's socket even for a room they haven't joined (and by definition can't have, until this fires). add_member publishes a room_added event on the target user's channel. Frontend: the WebSocket connection is no longer scoped to whichever room is open -- ChatShellPage now owns one persistent connection for the whole session (including while no room is open, which is exactly when this bug showed), and ChatPane joins/leaves rooms on top of it. A room_added event triggers a room-list refetch with no reload needed. Verified end-to-end in the browser: a user sitting on the empty room list saw a newly-added room appear live, then chatted in it normally. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
